  • Taking a short break to get some work done.

    I'll be semi-vacation mode, but I'll still be contactable via email (use my MSN one, not the aployton one).

    If anything major starts falling apart then email me.
    If the turn comes to us email me.
    If the drones permi-pact, tell me the good news.

    I'll only be gone for a couple of day I think.

    __________________________________________________ __
    Things that need to be done.
    * We want to arrange mobility from the pirates. Don't trade loyalty unless we can get flexibility.

    * We want mobility within 3 turns so there's no hurry yet. We need to do it in 3 turns to stop the drones getting mobility in an effort to speed up the flex research. I did an quick analysis of their tech path and I think if they get mobility they won't be able to beeline for air power. However, there's time to do that later, and if we get mobility from the drones we can probably divert the drones from researching mobility. Thus possibly preventing them from screwing their tech path.

    I have yet to do the full analysis.

    * The roleplaying story needs to be done. Volatire should send it to the pirates ambassador when it's completed.

    * Discussion on other details like the pact, and other things I haven't fully digested from the diplomatic message. Talk about possible meanings etc.

    Anyway I hope I can stay away and get some decent work done. I've found that while I'm forum camping I never get any work done.

    Vev can you organise the debating contests. The hive should probably organise who's going to be on the Hive's debating team. If Googlie is interested then he probably can think of 2 other judges. (not associated with a team.)


    I figured we'll come up with 1 artsy topic, 1 serious topic, and one wacked topic. Then we run a poll in the public forum on which topic will be used for the debate.

    With the serious topic we'll avoid religion and anything that would envoke too strong an opinion. The three judges will make the final decision on who argued the point best (not who is right).

      I figured each debate should have a few options that can be voted on in the public forums. The winning option has to be debated by two teams. The topics will probably drawn from suggestions in the public forum. (Planned versus Freemarket is banned as a topic though).

      Unfortunately nobody thinks we'll be able to get away with the EC prizes as it's a breach of the no-contact rules.

      Atm I figure 1 silly topic (Are rovers more fun to drive than needlejets?), 1 philosphy (Are people born with their fundamental personality?), 1 serious topic (Will the predicted running out of fossil fuels be a problem?)


      I've heard some interest from the University. Someone in our forum wants to know what kinds of things would be debated. Any previews?


      The Hive is running out of ideas for scandals to liven up the ACDG forum, so a few Hive members are considering starting a debating competition between the 5 factions. Be warned if there aren't enough participants the Hive spamming of the public forum will continue and we will also post nude pictures of Claire to the public forums making it a hardcore pornography site. If that fails to make you submit to the will of the Hive then we will be forced to unleash the Tassadar!

      Would a few members of your team be interested in joining?

      I'm considering inviting a few forum posters that are interested in SMAC, but aren't involved in the ACDG to act as judges. Also I'm hoping to convince the Hive to set aside a few ECs as a prize for the winner.

      PS: This message as been carbon copied to each of the other factions.

              So one affirmative, one negative and one undecided and the Drones are mostly likely negative.
