G.R.O.S.S. communication thread.

from Stardock Forums
Cringe in fear do gooders. The G.R.O.S.S. (Get Rid Of Slimy alienS) empire is now formed. In less than an hour we have jumped 95 other Pacifist Doo Gooder victim empires and lept into 40th out of 135 ranked.

We are an evil empire bent on controlling everything and showing all the other empires out there who's boss. US. Are you listening Euro-"Oh lets let everyone be a senator and give em a vote doo gooder democracy alliance?" We come for you.

For a limited time, (untill I decide otherwise) 5 Pure Evil games, (or just impressing me with your game evilness) submitted will get you a Senatorship. Later, being the evil empire pyramid scheme we are, it will take 10. Of course, being the evil empire we are, that gives you no benefits, no pay, but all the alien carnage you crave most.

Now we do realize that sometimes, you just have to fake being good. You sometimes just have to infiltrate that pacifist party. We understand. But we aren't a kinder gentler empire and don't let their pacifism go to your head. And just sometimes, you gotta let the Aliens live (where else would you find slaves for the heavy metal lava mines?)

In the future, we shall update each other in the empire via this thread, brag of our conquests, drink blood wine, and generally just poke fun (creatively and humorously) at those players whom we find to be too goody goodyish.

Our mottos.

G.R.O.S.S. Where being good is merely a temporary strategy.

Just win baby.

Here's your ration of skin you do gooder wimp Drengin slime. Now get back to work

EBZeroMatrix you have been made a senator.

I repeat. Cringe in fear, we come for you.

Hg.... Hmmmm. Did you upgrade to drengin.net?

Trelane: The other one, if you looked at it close was the symbol for one of the alien cultures. HEHE. Can't very well have Get Rid Of Slimy alienS using the symbol for an alien as its symbol can we? But we'll rotate the symbols around as we get board with one or the other.

Coffee: Download 1.4. the scoring system is far more to your liking.

Mates, HAVE YOU CHECKED OUT THE NEW SORTING MECHANISM FOR THE METAVERSE!!!! Are Stardock and Frogboy heroes or what! And I've seen a deficiency in He Who Is Not Spoken Of's gaming strategy: he sucks at some map sizes! Woo hoo.

I like the new symbol, other then rotating its
colors and stuff, I think we should keep it!

Who is he who is not spoken of?

Since I haven't submitted any other than Gigantic, I'm at zero on any other size. But I'm working on it maybe.

Pontius, I can hardly name He Who Is Not Spoken Of, coz then I would've spoken of him. Let me just say that it is a nickname which he wouldn't chosen for himself, which is the only type of nickname I've ever come across.

And I think pink would be a nice change, or possibly lilac.

Note that no one has submitted a huge map - understandable really as if you are going big go gigantic!

Ok G.R.O.S.S. ers. I'm out of here awhile. I really really want to finisht this game. It's a win. I just have to finish it off. Should score pretty well. It's gone quicker than last game and all the other stats are similar. We'll see how much quickness counts.

I have it on reliable information that certain ANZAC alcoholic beverages are illegally in your possession. Your motives are understandable, given the state of your domestic beer industry. Nevertheless, I am an alcoholic, and need dangerous mixtures of beer, bourbon, and tequila to survive. Therefore, I must insist that you return the keg. I cannot threathen you with scores, since the metaverse won't let me register. Therefore, I must resort to more primitive measures...

AAARGH!!! GIMME BACK MY KEG, YOU WANKERS!!!


Thank you for your time.

Yours sincerely,
One (1) raving lunatic.

Sure, Quack, you can have yer beer and wine back, but ye got to fight for it! ARR! Battle stations! :)

And it looks like the War of the South Seas continues. Oh, by the way, anyone notice that the White Council has got two heavy hitters and is threating the MWC? And that those sneaky Canadians have climbed to #7. Go ahead and fight on, GROSSers. I'll watch our back for the moment.

Sure, sure, Ray. You "old men" can call down the wrath of the heavens at will with those staves of yours. Forgive me if I keep an eye on the folks with the mojo magic. GROSS did not end up on the top 3 because of laziness. We are dedicated, vigilant, and willing to prove ourselves worthy. Bring it on, magic-users. We will be ready! :)

Sure Quack, you can have your keg back. It's right there, at the end of the plank. All you have to do is walk out there and get it... Arrrrrrrgh mateys. Get ready for a keel hauling.

Um, boss, the ANZAC crew is still really close to us, Better not sit on our butts yet. Fight, fight fight!

Just got those snappy sheep...

Pontius, you old dog. A scoring MACHINE. I am really enjoying small maps now in the certain knowledge I can finish one in *cough* 7 hours or so. But I've had a thought: with each new update will the previous scores from all other versions be reduced automatically? Frogboy was talking about gradual degrading of scores, and this may be what he means? :notsure:

Hmm.
Hmmmmm.....
MUHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!

MY MASTER PLAN IS COMPLETE!

You've tasted real beer. (I'm not talking Fosters here.) It was good, hey? Real good, I'll bet! But you can't get it there any more. There's only one place that makes good beer: AUSTRALIA! (Well, NZ probably does have a good brew I've missed, but they're in our power bloc, so nyar.). You're gonna go have to go for imported, your beer gut will accept no substitute. And you know what means? That's a boost to our economy!

+10 ECONOMY FOR ALL ANZAC EMPIRES!!!

How'd ya like them apples? Was that evil enough for ya?

Pleasure doing business with you. :CONGRAT:


P.S. No wine was missing from the boozer. You must have got that from the euros :p

Wahoo!!!

Now if we can just get them to drop their illegal sheep meat tarrifs galactic domination shall surely follow.

Although a US cultural victory cannot be ruled out - you want Coke with those fries?
