Hive-Pirate Negotiations

[Snowflake]

Thanks Comrade Oct for passing that message. I must have been absent minded. Last time I checked (last night) I have not received that message. I have not checked my email today yet.

This issue is quite crucial although peace had already posted the turn so I suppose it is too late to talk about it now.

[Enigma_Nova]

Jamski's proposal gets my support.
Well the turn's up anyway so it doesn't matter...
Still if the Pirates are going to be conquered anyway...

[Jamski]

Let's form a united front E_N and push for action!

[Enigma_Nova]

Well this makes it official.
I'm looking at the turn and what I'm seeing isn't pretty...
PEACE have performed a reload.

In other news the CyCon have performed a 'with us or against us' move. See it in the CyCon thread.

[Snowflake]

CC is ok. See my comments in the other threads.

We still need to decide how we should shape our peace relationship though.

[Voltaire]

I had hoped to remain neutral in this conflict, perhaps profit off of the war if we could, but neutrality was paramount. But the CyCon are trying to force our hand, PEACE has been diplomatic with us in their attempts to have them join their side and in fact they have been in a pact with us for sometime now and have not broken it nor given us a cause to break it, IMO the CyCon threat shows clearly how we need to approach them. They have threatened the Hive, and let them declare vendetta upon us, it will simply force us into this war on the side of PEACE.

[Jamski]

If we join the side of PEACE, it will be entirely YOUR desicion, Mr Chairman, and not the will of the people. Do you think they will stand for yet another betrayal of thier democratic rights?

-Jam

[Voltaire]

You are the last person who should speak of betrayal ex-Deputy Chairman. The people are divided, do not attempt to use this division to push the views of your extremist fringe group.

[Jamski]

3 votes from three = 50%

That's not a fringe group.

-Jam

[Voltaire]

In an unofficial poll, not a binding referendum. Furthermore, 3 votes from 26, hardly a majority.

[Jamski]

I see three votes from 6. Most major western countries have small turnouts at the polls, and yet these elections are binding. Why is this not the same in the Hive?

-Jam

[Voltaire]

Well for one we're not a Western country and we have a Centralized Proletariat Dictatorship under the vanguard of the Central Continuing Committee.

[Jamski]

And two this is a democracy game, and perhaps more than 4 people wish to participate.

-Jam

[Kody]

I'd cast my vote for peace if you really want it to be more even. However, I rarely cast my vote until all facts and opinions have been accounted for. Sometimes my official stance changes.

[Jamski]

Let's bring it together folks. And wait what the official message from the CyCOn is.
