Hmm... I've been thinking of what to do regarding the conference.

I'll try and write general treaty stuff, such as "The UA officially recongizes the rights and privielges...." (stuff like that). I'll write my point of view first, then you write Pym's. (The treaty will be concluded in the upcoming post, so you can get back to your civil war, and I can get back to my two or three planned story arcs).

What do you think?

[Lonestar]

Roll with it. And Hurry!

Ball's in your court now, buddy.

Post-diddily-osted,

[Lonestar]

Incidently, has anyone caught on to the naming scheme for Protectorate ships yet?

[Mr. President]

Surt and Utgard-Loki are references to Norse mythology.

Glorfindel is a character from The Lord of the Rings.

However, I have not yet caught on to the scheme.

[Lonestar]

Tolkien and Northern Europe references...I've had a few Celtic references.

[Sovereign]

Good post, Lonestar.

I always assumed that the Protectorate was patterned after Babylon 5, EarthGov, and Psi Corps from that TV series (one of my favorites).

I'm looking forward to the civil war, Lonestar. It sounds exciting!

At any rate, my next post will start the next story arc with the UA, and consolidation of Goa'uld territory (setting up bases, upgrading technology, standardizing communications and language among the reformed Jaffa, etc.) absorbing it into the UA.

Then I might add a surprise, not sure yet.

[Lonestar]

I hope I was not out of place having Zakharov speak.

[Mr. President]

Sixtyfirst thing I am now longer allowed to do in the Military.

I fear I do not understand. Probably I would if I had been there.

[Lonestar]

A moment.

[Lonestar]

Look at the last post here


A 2nd Lt. is an O-1...meaning he's the lowest ranking officer there is. I'm a E-4, the first of the Non Commissioned Officer ranks (which means in theory I'm a "Leader"). The lowest you can be is E-1.

Hence. "I've been promoted three more times than you".

"Not allowed to purchase anyone's soul on Government time."

[Sovereign]

No worries, Lonestar, regarding your post. I thought you did Zakharov pretty well, in character and everything.

How did I do with Henry Pym? On character, or way off?


BTW, get your arse up to Admiral, Lonestar.

One of my coworkers once tried to trick me into signing away my soul using a "special request" chit...he was going on leave and I had agreed to cover for him on his duty day. I thought I was signing a Duty Swap chit.

"Respectfully request to aquire CTM3 Bucher's soul"

Soveriegn

with regards to your last sentence.

Admiral? *confused*
