Ancients of Mumu and Children of Mumu - Straight outta Phekda

[Privata]

Given that the lore of the system is in your hands , do you say that the mumu faction arrived after or before the corporations?
As it would make more sense to me (but thats just me) that the events of the 3 corp war (is that even still canon?) happened and then your group came and started a new order and over time made the system stable(ish)

In the year of our Lord 2302, the Justified Ancients of Mu Mu
Set sail in their spaceships, on a voyage to discover the promised system
After many months through perilous, dangerous systems, their search was fruitless
Just when all seemed lost, they discovered PHEKDA!
The words you are about to experience is a celebration
Of the 1000th anniversary of their founding of this great system...

Of course, we were not very active back then and when others came to the system, we remained in the shadows, pulling the strings of the fledgling governments, working with a long term plan to ensure stability and control of the system. Unfortunately, the conflicts between Kamawachi, Bell-Traket and Inter-market upset the apple cart and in the end, we decided the only way to put things right was to take direct control of the system.

Thanks to our benevolent control, the system now has a booming biowaste export industry and a thriving tourist economy, with passengers flocking to and fro the system. The 4 earthlike worlds in Phekda provides a wide range of sights and locales for tourists and a wide variety of entertainment.

The rumors that dissident tourists get sent to the biowaste factories for processing are scurrilous lies spread by our enemies. The truth is people love our system so much they decide to remain and become citizens of Phekda and join the ever growing ranks of Mumu.

Rock on !

I love the touch of dark houmour it fits the sometimes twisted universe that elite can be

It fits with the whole illuminati angle and the darker themes that are in the Illuminatus trilogy, especially the ending where basically it becomes a bit Lovcraftian.

Are we good guys who just like to rock and want to take care of our system? Or is there something darker? Its something we can build on in the future perhaps.

THE MUMU MEWS - ISSUE #7

DIPLOMATIC INCIDENT - King Boy D speaks out!

Yesterday a diplomatic incident occurred when King Boy D called the Alioth Independents ambassador to Phekda "a giant *#$%^#$%#$% of epic proportions"

The reason for the dispute is due to Alioth Independents insistence on keeping Alioth a permit locked system. This results in permit hunters flying all over the place destabilizing systems while doing their best to get into the good books of Alioth Independents.

King Boy D later had the following to say:

I'm getting pretty cheesed off with this business. Commanders who have no interest in our system or Alioth itself, just running around like headless chickens, doing whatever AI tell them to do, just to get that damned permit! Look, we used to have a permit system here, but once we got control, we dumped it. Its not like the permit actually stopped people coming. Just slowed them down gaining entry while they sucked up to the ruling faction. Its time to put a stop to this, and we are calling on all local factions to try and pressure Alioth Independents into removing the permit requirement for the good of the stability in this sector.

Alioth Independents later on called for King Boy D to retract his insult. King Boy D told them he was far too busy to apologize since he was helping a friend who needs an Alioth permit deliver 100 tons of biowaste to a nearby system.

OMG! Ijust hit this thread while browsing the forums (I'm at work at the moment sneaking a bit of freebie time) and saw the title! I hit that system by accident diong a bit of random mission trolling, and nearly fell of my chair laughing at the reference to the KLF. I'm pleased to see that a group have addopted the system. I'm "cordial" with the ancients, but I'll keep an eye for Mumu missions from now on and make sure I do them.

(Sorry I play the basic solo game only. I'm poo at combat)

Keep up the good work, make mine a 99 (And yes I know what a 99 is)

Thanks.

Have a 99 on the house from us.

Keep in mind as well that its a tourist system, so a good place to get passenger missions if that is your thing.

If you are in the area, feel free to run missions for Perez Ring Brewery as well. They are our allies and their influence has been taking a pounding for some reason. Were trying to help them out in Phekda. Get them up to at least 20% or so.

I hear you and the brewery is noted. If I remember correctly that base was waaaay back in the system, so a bane to get at, but I'll pop in and see if there's anything my keelback can help with.

You can go to any base in the system for missions. Ignore Gonzales, its way out. Go to Lee, Ousey, or Werner - they are all a bit closer.

THE MUMU MEWS - ISSUE #8 - SPECIAL BUMPER EDITION - IN 5D!!!!

DIPLOMATIC ISSUES WITH PEREZ RING BREWERY AND A RESOLUTION

Over recent weeks, behind the scenes, there were high level talks between Mumu and PRB as represented by members of AID with the support of the Alliance Council to discuss certain issues relating to the treaty between the Ancients and PRB. The issue was that AID were having difficulties maintaining their influence in system as per the previous agreement without having control of a port of call. After some tricky negotiations Mumu have agreed to secede control of a station to AID/PRB in return for certain concessions from their side which has resulted in a new treaty where both parties hopefully can live together in peace.

Celebrations were held in the White Room on Atlantis with members from the Ancients wearing clown outfits with big red noses in their usual way of hiding their true identities from the public. Rumours that an Alliance representative was not impressed with being sprayed in the face with water from a fake flower are unfounded.

DON'T PANIC!!! - FNORD

Over the coming weeks and months the Phekda system will be undergoing a period of instability as certain changes occur in relation to control of stations in the system. This is to facilitate the new treaty whereby Perez Ring Brewery will gain control of a station.

King Boy D said:

Everyone lie down on the floor and keep calm. Nah, just kidding. You can get up now. Ok, its no biggie. Its not like war is about to happen. We are mainly just shifting around some corporate stocks and bonds and restructuring our assets. In the meantime, i'm afraid there will be a bit of red tape and whatnot to deal with as the authorities change.

Besides, there is a real big benefit here for the tourism industry we have here. With PRB actually controlling a station here, this should mean great things for the price of alcoholic products in the system as we can reduce taxation on those products and get more produced locally, generating more jobs!

Citizens throughout Phekda celebrated this news by getting absoloutely munted.

ANCIENTS OF MUMU JOIN THE ALLIANCE

As if the other happy news we have had this week wasn't enough, as a result of recent discussions, the Ancients of Mumu have joined the Alliance. Wearing garish robes with a pointy hood and facemask, King Boy D gave his acceptance speech to the Alliance Assembly:

Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn

When asked to translate into Galactic Common English, King Boy D said its the language of his ancestors and difficult to translate, but said it indicated that his ancestors can sleep peacefully as he is at home in the Alliance.

Several other members of the Ancients were also present at the ceremony, although were not available for comment, although a few words were overheard from their table, including goat, shaving foam, and back rub. Another member of the Ancients was found later in the Assembly gardens swearing profusely at a flower. He was gently led away to a quiet room where with the approval of King Boy D he was sedated.

NOBODY MAULED TO DEATH BY GIANT CAT ON LEE RELAY

That is all. Thank you for your attention.

THE MUMU MEWS - ISSUE #9

MUMU WORK TO RECLAIM PHEKDA

As part of the long standing agreement with Perez Ring Brewery, who have been holding the system in escrow for Mumu, the time to revert ownership is upon us. As part of the deal, the Brewery will get to retain control of a station as thanks for their efforts. All independent pilots in the region are requested to not interfere with this handover, or should the be willing, help Mumu with the transfer of power.

Any CMDRs found to be interfering with the efforts will have the music of Jupstine Beeber broadcast at their ships non-stop until they leave the area.

Certain parties have expressed horror at this, declaring it to be an inhumane action and against all local peace treaties. However, Mumu would like to point out that by broadcasting at single ships cannot be considered a weapon of mass destruction.

King Boy D AND Rockman Rock RELEASE NEW SONG

Partnering with those mega stars of rap, the Nihilists with Attitude, or NWA for short, the Ancients release a new song. The song called "Phekda Police" is sure to cause a bit of a stir and is already circulating via underground stations around the region.

 

[Tod]

Being it 1286 years since the return of the Jams, I have decided that it is time for me to seek further enlightenment and alignment with the Ancients of MuMu. Please have a fire built in readiness for me.

 

[insanephoton]

The White Room is being prepared for you at Trancentral (please make sure you don't miss the last train). There you can gain ultimate enlightenment to such questions as 'What time is love?' (Obviously 3 a.m. Eternal)

Welcome aboard Tod!

THE MUMU MEWS - ISSUE #10

EVERYTHING IS FINE!

That is all.

MUMU RANKS SWELL

A recent recruitment drive and a new era of openness as resulted in the supporters of Mumu growing. Also closer relations have been made with AID/Perez Ring Brewery and other groups, most notably the Ceremonial Teabaggers.

However, not everyone is happy with the new situation, King Boy D was reported as saying:

If I see one more teabagger at my door, I'll cover them in biowaste.

King Boy D though has recently stepped down from his position as spokesperson for the Ancients, delegating the role to Sir Agony of the Aunt.

We caught up with Sir Agony aboard his luxury Beluga, the Horsell Common, where he relaxed in a zero-G golden jacuzzi with his companion, Lady Miranda of the Bush.

Sir Agony said:

Well, things appear to be going, and he paused for a second, looked around, and grinned, swimmingly well!

 

[insanephoton]

A question, are the Ancients of Mumu no longer justified? Or have they become modest in their old age?

Justified on Wednesdays and Fridays only these days. Economy must be our watchword this season!

Justified on Wednesdays and Fridays only these days. Economy must be our watchword this season!

Also, are they left justified, right justified, fully justified or centred?

 

[Philip Coutts]

* Do you want to call home a system that reeks of desperation and biowaste? The swing on over to Phekda and pull up a chair!
* Do you want to wing up, so do we! We need more cannon fodder, I mean friends to assist us in whatever nonsense we happen to be doing
* We have literally no leadership at all (unless Agony has finished playing fortnite yet?)
* We can make you rich / famous / notorious / a cup of tea*
* We can offer Galaxy defining levels of incompetence!
* Do you have a war needing won by any means, form an incredible alliance with us and we will win any war, anywhere at any time we are that hard**

Listen, bottom line we will take anyone. New player, old player whatever, we are rubbish but we can offer help and friendship. In return we want all your gold, credits, loot etc******. Also we will be participating in squadrons, if Frontier are still speaking to us which is doubtful. Chances are we will be rubbish at squadrons too but what are you going to do? I'll tell you what Commander you are going to hotfoot it over to Phekda and become a legend! You could be the one who actually understands what in the name of Braben is going on! Go on you know you want to, go on, go on, go on, go on.....

Apparently we also have a discord server where people can co0me and freely fling insults at my piloting skills and blame me for things that I didn't break...

https://discordapp.com/invite/P4R4UJH

I am at this stage legally obliged to tell you that everything in this post is not endorsed in anyway by anyone as it is complete and utter bilgewater. o7 Commanders!


*We cannot do any of those things, well except the tea bit if you really want
** Never knowingly won any war but will die a lot trying
*** Yeah but no, really we have made so many mistakes we can probably save you making the same ones over again
**** This oaf is going to tell you the secret to the Universe is 42
***** Edward Lewis in no way said this and has never even heard of this group, but just don't tell him and it will all be fine...
****** We will not ever give you a towel, bring your own or else!
******* What do mean I can't ask for money, what's the point of it all then?

 

[wakko151]

if you sell biowaste to a station, any station, it will cause a plague in the system. Takes awhile depending on the systems population but its fun to do.
