When the Federation finally consumes itself and the Alliance stops being a nation and reverts to wandering about looking for 24-hour convenience stores to buy snacks, Baconia will rise to become the only area of space free from Imperial rule.

All hail Baconia!

The Federation will never consume itself. Never, I tell you! However, there is always a place for Federally approved pork products, including but not limited to the finest cuts of bacon, pork scratchings, hot roast pork sandwiches (with crackling) and other pig-related goodies.

I shall, of course, be more than happy to act as in intermediary in any and all bacon-related dealings with Zachary (El Presidente T-1000) Hudson, for a small gratuity or two. However, that Winters woman, pretender that she is, can sort her own bacon out.

All hail the (Federal State) of Baconia! :p

I'm sure we can find neutral territory for a delivery of Bacony good cargo

I'll be happy to consider your application for such an esteemed position, but after the latest intelligence reports from Imperial space (just don't ask how I get them) I think there might end up being a long, long talk in our future.

What? I didn't do anything. It wasn't me. The guy was already dead when I got there. I wasn't even there. I ran out of fuel. My ship broke down. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of system. Someone stole my Cobra. There was an earthquake, a terrible flood, locusts! It wasn't my fault, I swear to God!

Also: What intelligence reports?

Something about a bar fight with three federal midshipmen resulting in the destruction of just over a million credits of government property and the evacuation of over ten thousand people due to escaped bio-hazardous materials, the theft of the legendary ruby sceptre of Prime Minister Xxitri of Slaa and someone matching your description slapping a senator's wife with a pork chop.

Obviously, the pork chop thing is the most grievous issue to address.

It wasn't a pork chop at all. It was a lamb shank. This is why you should never believe 'eye-witness' statements.

As for the rest, yes, that was me and I'm proud of it. Those midshipmen should have kept their grubby little paws to themselves. A girl's got to defend her honour, after all.

Abuse of a senator with lamb products? Lamb's a fine for dinner and all, but carries none of the holy significance of Sacred Pork. Well then, I think we can move on with your application!

Now, now... I have noticed factionalism intruding in some of the posts.

May I remind you that bacon & cats transcend all political or sectarian boundries; that is one reason why they are so desired. People don't want politics with their bacon or their cats (cats always win anyway).

Let us be free of the petty bickering that plagues the rest of mankind and unite under the flag of the One True Bacon.

Ave Catizens! The time is now my fellow Baconeers, to step forward and be counted - thanks to further information from members of various diplomatic corps the possibility has been raised to establish an official contact office for the Bacon Cats. We'll need an official figurehead and a location (preferably just in Imperial space for transit permit permissions, but not too far from the borders of other governments for ease of trade and diplomatic communications to remain factionally neutral).

Please, please submit any suggestions to me, either in the thread here or privately with a message if you prefer. I'll chew things over and put out more details as I have them.

Arise, Bacon Cats!

Okay, this is cool. While there are rp-related reasons for me to be against the idea of the faction being based in an Imperial system (in-character I'd prefer an independent system), I will accede to the wishes of the group on this one - I'm sure I can come up with some sort of in-character justification for why I might end up hanging around in Imp space.

My (not completely serious) suggestion for figurehead would, of course, be Captain Link Hogthrob...

For Minor Faction Type, I'd suggest 'None', in keeping with the independent nature of the Bacon Cats.

Does this mean we're going to get our own space station? (Eventually, after we've flipped the local government...)

Aren't you the official figurehead? :p And I will break out the DBS and scout for a location. Now do we want a system with a station already in it or someplace for a possibly new station?

According to Zac's post it has to be habitated, with stations, and if interested in PowerPlay, should be supportable for that outcome.

Speaking as someone that has been involved with this aspect of the game there should be an NPC that talks for your group...rather than a Commander. Look at how CSG functioned during the War in Lugh. We had to utilize the NPC to speak for us, set the story, move the goals, etc. There was a chance to have the main NPC die during the war...so we had created a second one if that had actually happened.

Finally, remember that we cannot speak for FDev's NPC's. It is ok for Bacon Cat to report that they saw Ms. Winters at a party (as long as the party was mention within Galnet), and issues were discussed. You cannot say the Bacon Cat has talked with Ms. Winters and Ms. Winters said 'x'..or 'agreed to y'. That would take FDev approval, which you would have to contact Zac for....and he would have to pass it back to story writers/devs/GOD..someone to approve.

It won't be "our" space station, I don't think it's exactly in keeping with the Bacon Cats philosophy to actually make policy and control anything, but it would be "administered" by background sim NPCs that ostensibly belong to the Bacon Cats. Honestly, in reality it's probably going to be Brother Relayer playing with piles of papers and pretending to use a calculator on his days off from space truckin'. That won't mean bossing people around or impacting on players, just the (possible) changing of the brand name on the label.

I'm the official contact, yes. But the proposal needs a figurehead in-game too. Do you really want -me- on the label? That could only bring about horrible things.

We need to pick a system that is populated, so I think that requires a station. :) Larger populations do make some life slightly easier in some ways, but the location is far more important than the status of claiming a fancy, high-pop system or anything like that. We're not trying to take over the galaxy or crush anybody, we're a non-profit mockery and bacon service, just trying to be as awesome as possible.
