Call to Arms for a Free Colonia

[Isaiah Evanson]

The war for Carcosa is live now.

As always, have fun, make filthy amounts of money, and if we win - well, you can count on another war two days later.

If we lose though... oh, the fun really kicks off.

I think this about sums it up.

For all those asking for clarification, based on my experience, you will be given the runaround with no real answer, then told the answer is irrelevant, then told that you need to explain what you intend to do with the answer, you will be told that your method for using the answer (even though not yet disclosed) is wrong and finally you will give up asking which was the intention from the start. This will, of course, all be entirely your fault.

 

[Rat Catcher]

"How will it end?", "Will it ever end?" are hardly relevant questions to ask.
We all know the answers.

As Ratkatcher:

Of course it'll end, I'll be a few billion credits better off, still be doing the things I enjoy - and, being frank, will continue doing exactly what I always do, enjoying family life, friends, just life in general... Have you convinced yourself that whatever you do really makes a difference in the game? You'll take your 'little victory' and gleefully gloat, then disappear into obscurity once more - we'll all still be playing, you - me - Phisto - Jelli - Isiah - the rest of the folk who have been playing and having fun, you will actually have achieved nothing permanent or even consequential - and even you know, if a faction is at the bottom of the heap, the only way is up...

 

[Vandaahl]

As long as they keep feeding the BGS server hamster, there will be no end.

edit
oh crap, this is role play...

tHE END IS NIGH!!1
shakes fist

I have one idea.

Im actually starting to look forward to the next Distant world expedition...

Well, we cant dissapoint our audience , now, can we

Like it always ends. The same how it ran with your war in Riedquat or your war against RoA. With SPEAR being the laughing stock of the open community.

 

[TEBORI]

interesting you say this on the day of the retreat of code from RIEDQUAT

Hi there. Thanks for dropping in. We're still waiting on any facts at all regarding this supposed Colonian Genocide.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Maybe you don't know because you're not long enough part of this?

 

[Phisto Sobanii]

The real joke is, at least from a BGS perspective, it isn't us doing the genociding.

Even better? If you want proof, just look at all the influence numbers and retreats...

Oops.

 

[[PS4] Lorenzo Waringos]

I've just noticed this on the SPEAR website:

"No question is considered too trivial or too stupid."

They should perhaps edit that to put the full stop after 'considered', then delete the rest.

And somehow this only applies to your side? That sounds a bit grandiloquent.
As if your side would not gleefully gloat about a victory. As if anything in this game is permanent or consequential, etc.

Look you are not special, neither are we. So, drop off the soap box for a sec and realize that we share the same hobby, we are just not on the same side, but that very fact contributes to making this game interesting.

 

[Achtung-Goomba]

One day the servers will shut down and we will continue our feud in Elite: Dangerouslier?

First one to destroy the galaxy with an anti-matter bomb wins.

EDIT: Good heavens I think you’ve cracked it, the plan is the make the game so toxic it gets shut down. Voila, no more griefing, ganking or genocide!

 

[Renraiku]

This retreat is irrelevant, I hate to be the one to break it to you, The Code no longer exists..
Your efforts are in vein on all fronts, you cannot win Tebori, if you strike Carcosa down, we will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

Nobody is special. Only this wonderful (and flawed) game. So we should try and leave something useful behind us when we leave. Not ruins. Especially if our role is supposed to be that of the good guys.

Lekeno and Tebori, please provide proof of the virtual genocide you have accused us of committing.

Ah, the old Gomorrha protocol.

Although to be fair here, no-one here is a 'good' guy. We have lawfuls and outlaws. Helping prop up a slave economy dictatorship is certainly not a good thing in the game by any stretch of the imagination.

Anyway, we shouldn't expect an answer about what their plan is next. How can they do that if they don't know what we're going to do?

You bring up a good point. The Nameless doesn't dabble in the slave trade.

You know who does? Civitas Dei.
