I used to post on the previous two "official" forums, And now I was thinking of moving here. Is it allright by you, cotroneo, if I post as the peacekeepers or the believers?

By all means write about the peacekeepers or believers....it would be nice to have and old faction perspective in this new crossfire radical world....one other thing....i'm not the leader of this forum....we all are(eheh im a democratic person)...so address it to the group...not me. but, im glad to have you aboard. Just follow the "rules" stated above...any questios just ask me or email me....

jason....i'm 16 also...glad to have some kid blood...how are u in english class

[Jasonian]

Cotroneo,

Well, I shouldn't brag, but I will anyways. I'm getting about 102% in my english class... heh. Everyone cheered my short story I wrote a while back, and I wrote up a sequel.

Of course, it's probably a fluke, and that grade doesn't mean I can write better then you or any of the Spartan writers. Ah well.

And you are NOT democratic, o Supreme Imperial Commander!

hahaha....quite the funny man...and for your information....im currently at a 73 for my english grade....as you certainly can tell.

anyway whats with the drones? why did you pick them?....i sense that little bit of freedom spirit within you.....oh well...when i take over the world, ill leave you south american. Now how does that sound? lol

oh yes...whats your email? i want to ask you a few questions on how you want the sinder/drone relationship to work out. Should it be a big story line or just abit of something on the side? ...i think im going to go kill raptor now.....just kidding

[Jasonian]

Cotroneo,

Why did I pick the drones? Well they look like a dirty faction from the outside, with their heavy-polluting industry and their lack of research, but really it seems like the best faction to live in. They exist to aid the common man. Not a bad concept really.

Email me at Jay1256@hotmail.com . I check that a lot so we can coordinate our posts etc. etc.

Also, We'd like to hear from you as well Raging Mouse. Don't forget about us here!

Cotroneo, you seem to be the most active of equal citizens in this "democracy" (at least it was you who started this post), so good manners tell me to ask your permission. I think I will be the peacekeepers. Looks like I will be writing a lot of laments....

Raging Mouse,

Well, it appears that Cotroneo is busy with something, so I'll answer you. On behalf of the "Crossfire Tales", I welcome you to the team as the writer for Brother Lal of the Peacekeepers!

Cotroneo is working on an official map that will have a rough outline of all the factions, so you can see where you are once it's complete.

You can email me at Jay1256@hotmail.com or Cotroneo at PaulCotroneo@cs.com . Please give one or both of us your email so we can fill you in on the Peacekeeper situation, the secret projects, technology, etc etc.

sorry guys...was doing my physics homework...even though i wasn't understanding one bit of it......its good to here that you will be taking Lal raging mouse. A brief history of lal....i mean really brief


is currently fighting the hive around the fresh water lake. Both are at a stalemate. Hive has alot more resources and men yet lal is recieving energy credits galor from trade and selling tech. So its even. Jason, or the drones, have just secretly broken away....so if jason wants...maybe in a few years they will offset the balance in favor of lal.

Lal, who is below the gaians...currently have a pack with her. Gaians are near the ruins...if you want...give us your email so we can give you the first verson map. Its basically shows where all the old faction capitols are....i just spent a minute on it. After i write the next episode tonight, i will work alot more on it.


oh yes...Jason, tell me if it worked, were you able to play the scenaro?

[Slats]

Hey there,

Tell me why don't you allow either of the two alien races in the Crossfire Tales??
I was thinking about maybe writing for the Manifold Caretakers but if they're not included...

See ya,

Slats

[Cotroneo]

ok slats here whys me and jason said no...about that. We want the other new factions to get devoloped more.....than suddenly these alien guys appear....and almost slaughter everyone.....we want it to be a surpise.

unless you want to write about both aliens past....like why there really fighting...perhaps you can write about them on their original homeworld, and the voyage to manafold 6. after a while, the come and land.

sorry we just want to keep suspense about them

Having written (but not posted) my first episode, I think on rereading it that I should respectfully bow out and let fresher blood write re: The Pirates.

Reason: the character was too much like Scott "Googlie" Allardyce of the SC, but with an eyepatch (so to speak).

Ah, it's tough to teach an old dog new tricks.Writing style is such a personal signature thing.

Good luck with the Tales. I'm enjoying them so far.

Just a suggestion - spellcheck is good, but doesn't cover everything. Make sure you read the material over once before posting, to avoid the legitimate word mixups (here vs hear, there vs their, your vs you're etc. We learned that early on in the Chrons)

Great imagination ,though, from both of you posting so far. I'm enjoying them.

Funny.. You should be able to see my e-mail address.. Anyways, it's viktor@surfnet.fi

C ya!

[Cotroneo]

i guess googles remarks about vocab and spelling is directed primarily at me.....paul walks away in shame......i guess that explains my 70 average in english. And don't be scared if your character reminds of us like google....although google was old, he still was a cool character, and i think he fits the pirates well.

again im sorry about the spelling and vocab, i read it over, but i'm always a bad proof reader. microsoft word is really bad on finding the mistakes or sometimes actually making mistakes in english.

but i appreciate you reading

Hi all, hope I don't sound too presumptuous here but since Googlie has decided not to write about the Nautilus Pirates faction, I thought maybe I could give it a shot. Is it alright with you guys if i write about the Pirates?

Like Jasonian and Cotroneo, I'm 16 too Again, not to sound too presumptuous or anything, but could I "reserve" the Pirate faction for myself for a couple of weeks because I live in Singapore and I'm currently up in arms over my exams. Of course, I'm sure the story would be much better if Googlie wrote it instead of me, but if you guys let me try I'll give it my best shot.

Dante^:

Don't sell yourself short.

One can easily get stale in writing and I sometimes find that every new post is just like the last one.

In the Chrons, my character, Googlie, is going away for some weeks to the PK's, where he will find his old buddy Ulrik - so look for my stories on the Pirates there.

Probably won't be battle scenes, more scenic and atmosphere stuff. But it'll be fun using the imagination.

Looking forward to reading your posts after your exams.

Good luck

Googlie
