Spammers.

PBEM? Don't that involve email rathe than poly posts?

oh, and this is my backup account, I had registered originally in around 2000 or so, but never had the time to post much.

Besides, what can a moron add to a topic when someone like MTG can just come in an PWN everyone. I'm not a talented troll like CivNation, EVC or the more modern Wiglaf/Fez, so that won't work, nor do I have lots to say like Yin.

Having lurker tendencies really hurt one's post count

Last post on this non-GO topic I hope:

I shunned hangman, left demogames and only played a couple of PBEMs.

Just saying its possible to have a high postcount by simple regular ontopic posting.

Chapter 5.5
Lonely at the Top

Here is something to think about
Because that's where the money is.

"Target set. Ivan, ready?"

"Ready, Cosmos."

------------------------

The allied fleet rocketed off and before long was bearing down on the biggest prize in the galaxy, the Greater Naviwinat Empire.

"Something doesn't look right."

"Jebus, what now?"

"Look at that. That's a JEBUS array."

"You mean one of those joint electric battery universal shields?"

---------------------------------

In the subsequent impact, Stardust lost two laser dreadnaughts and had a third damaged. von Kristof also lost two laser dreadnaughts and had to scrap a third to keep his diminishing fleet in working order.

Chapter 5.6
Caught Alone

Here is something to think about
A one legged stool cannot stand, period.

When joined, the Colonial Alliance's three powers, each with their distinct weaponry, fought superbly. Seperated, however, they were essentially single-weapon fleets.

For the Senator and the Colony I system however, this was fine, lasers and torpedoes were respected weapons at any occasion.

Mr. Danz, on the other hand, found himself holding the fatal cards.

[Paddy]

Despite already having delivered Lazorgeddon to the enemy, Ordin and Zol's allied fleet decided to maneuver even closer to Mr. Danz's crippled fleet to turn it into mincemeat.

As a parting gesture though, the Danz had a little nasty surprise from his fighter planes. With his carriers all destroyed, however, his planes had nowhere to go, and his commanders quickly surrendered.

Ordin and Zol subsequently landed their elite ground troops and sacked the DanzCorp headquarters. Promises of huge vaults of gold turned up empty though- all the credits had been long since secretly transferred to a private bank account in a star cluster off the edge of the galaxy.

Chapter 5.7
Buildup

Here is something to think about
The right to bear lazors shall not be infringed.

The largest fleets now weighed in at over 100 gigatons, and there as enough material in the factories to push some over the 200 gigaton mark. The supremacy of the Lazor seemed assured, with almost 40% of all shipping being laser-equipped.

Orders due Friday, 3/18/05, 7 PM Pacific (GMT -8)
Next week I am on spring break, so if the turn is not ready for processing on Friday night, it will be done the subsequent Friday.
