ANZAC's News From The A.S.S.

ANZAC's News From The A.S.S.

-------------
Intercepted live broard cast from a hidden survailence camera aboard "The A.S.S" installed by some other groups Spy who worked on her at her last manditory Multiverse inspection.
-------------
ANZAC closed Debriefing:

A lot has happened in the last 2 days
With the active recruiting, espionage, sabotage, and Rescue branches

at least 3 (that i know of at this point in time) of our X-Compatriots who decided to try it alone in their budding empire FF, have been persuaded to join GROSS. Our Emporer has just returned from being M.I.A and looks the worse for ware.. However He is alright. {BlueSteel nods towards Worty} GROSS also attempted to gain the services of another of our Collegues "Slitherin" however they were able to return to us {BlueSteel notions towards Slitherin} glad to have you both back..

Our Anti GROSS Propaganda seems to have had a limited effect so far..

Our Ranking in the MetaVerse has jumped back up to 7th thanks to the Return of our mates and myself..
This isn't enough to play a major role in the Multiverse Federated Empire Council.. so we need more Influence out there in the Metaverse

Spread the word to recruit Overlords.. All we need are Overlords who are capable of posting a score at least once a month and then we'll be right back up there with the elite.

Our HQ is now this ship we are now sinning in . "The ANZAC Space Ship", "The A.S.S." {bluesteel looks around to see if there are any smirks from the ranks... of which he is please to see that there are none} . "The ASS (Donkey,Mule,JackASS} was fundimental at Galipolli in the rescue of injured our mates in arms from the front line.. so she is aptly named..

Remember the ANZACS.. "Lest we forget" , let them be an insperation to us all in our Galactic Adventures
We currently have spies in.......

{A siren sounds and you see a lot of ppl running around..} and then the camera jostles around and then you hear "Sir.. we've found something.." you see my hand groap for the camera.. and then you get nothing but static....

Steve - believe me when I say this comes from the heart - I do know where you're about to go. Been there, done that - and I got the t-shirt. No, it's not bad if you get an eventual outcome that you're really happy with. The problem is trying to please all of the people, all of the time. I'm not sure it's possible. I VERY SINCERELY wish you all the best, although of course I wish you would really all come and join the Posse ;)

Good luck ANZACs (or whatever you end up as) :)

The thing thats working against you there is that the POSS isn't an independant empire... its a part of GROSS.. If you were to strike it out alone now i think that you'll have more success in your own right.. as POSS is now well known.. but GROSS is Probably afraid of loosing you.. in the end it is up to the individual..

I'm not going to bend you every members wishes.. for any change to take place it'll be ultimatly my decision.. but as you know if I don't keep most of the empire happy then they'll split into their own or go their own way... I don't want to see that happen again to the ANZACS..

If the republicans want to merge the 2 empires then we'll probably become "The ANZAC Republic" or something like that... but it'll have to go to the senete and the Republicans would have a say in it too.. If however things get out of hand then the decision is mine and mine alone.. I hope it won't come to that..

The Republicans may not wish to merge.. (i don't think that they do... Because i've suggested it before"

Was wondering why the ANZAC icon looked kinda greenish and sick. LOL
Looks like the Vomit Smiley really had an impact on the ANZACs.

The ANZACs have taken centre stage now in the drama that is the Metaverse.
I would be an interested observer. Hope you people don't take the discussion
private unless you really have to.

Ray your posting via Stardock Central today . . . thats unusual! Hmmm. Just for the record 'The ANZAC Republic' sounds like a good comprimise to me!

I'm going to go out on a limb here . . . heya Ray do you want to join our Empire! I don't think anyone would notice?

Away with the drugery of responsibility, away with the perplexing issues of leadership, Away with the . . . um . . . you ain't buying this are you, oh well can't blame me for asking . . . it would really be a sensation!

But seriously I prefer public deliberation over anything else too . . . its all just show biz after all!

:D

mmm, maybe having worked SO HARD to keep the ANZACs goin...we should stick with it. i'm not convinced the 'publicans wanna come to the party.

however am increasingly becoming fond of the new 'serious' anzacs being called.......

the gravediggers

LOL LOL LOL LOL

ok, maybe just the diggers.....

:D

You had me going there Cotal... I thought you were serous about leaving again.. (I hope it was just a jest)

as for the republicans.. we'll just have to wait and see what they want to do..

Either way its no skin off my nose... LOL.. I'm an ANZAC and i'm proud of it..

Yeah, I know - that's my point. Freedom Force looked good, until Slitherin decided it was a dumb concept that didn't suit him; when you suddenly have one of a small number being unhappy, it's hard to play together. The Posse as part of GROSS is a GOOD thing; we're playing at the top of the table, we have a relatively large critical mass and lots of moral support - it's an extended family (check the thread!) The attitude of older GROSSers has been very generous and mutually supportive in helping us to retain our identity - and before you say it, I don't think that's just about getting scoring players. It's just difficult to get what you really want, sometimes - good luck, mate!

Just trying to picture Agent Ray :HOT: as an ANZAC....

Thers no substitute for wisdom Wild Wombat thanks again for your thoughts. BlueSteel I can't recall anything I wrote eluding to changing my mind . . . ?

Then again I think I've posted more today than I have in the whole time I've been here . . .

Is it just me or does the colour change in our flag look kinda well you know 'sickly' . . . I thought I'd get used to it but it sorta makes me queezy . . . I'm no picasso though.

And I'm kewl with whatever our Charismatic Emperor decides to do! :D

me too!

though if we're the gravediggers, right we can then have the logo of lemmy's card - The Ace of Spades - in green and gold, and then we can have lemmy's motto, "win some, lose some it's all the same to me" or "that's the way i like it baby, i don't wanna live for ever"

ACE OF SPADES! ACE OF SPADES!

sorry, i'm overexcited - ANZAC is fine. i iz havin' another bex and a lie down.

:CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT:

I'm trying to imagine a republican gravedigger in a cheerful green and gold uniform...

Okay, this is getting weird. LOL

Steve - I'm starting to suspect that TOO much Bex is part of the problem...especially given that Bex went off the market years ago - man, what are you really taking??? :D

is the logo any better now as a darker green..

(remember you may have to force a refresh of the page to get the new pici)

Yeah, Cotal. I like the forum refresh function in SDC.

Wow, it's been a long time since somebody tried to recruit me. :D

Let me see. Should I join the ANZACs?

Nah, I like the Fellowship icon better. :D

BTW, don't look down on the importance of a nice icon. People have joined empires because they liked the icon.

I know nobody asked for my opinion on the ANZAC icon but I liked the blue colour better.

Dark blue, black, red are all strong and attractive colours.

I have a nice one of a old sailing ship if anyone wants it... I did it up ages ago.. (from an icon on my sesktop)

Sure throw it up there BlueSteel . . . heya EvilSteve Wild Wombat did have a point Bex and Vincents haven't been on the Chemist shelves since the mid eighties (i.e. when they realized they both caused Cirhossis (sp?) of the liver) . . . I'm a great supporter of Panadol Forte (greeatt! Stuufff! Wow . . . its got a bit of a kick on it too!). Naturally any medication I'm on is persciption only offcourse . . . :)

Second though I like the old blue southern cross . . . Rays gotta point too. Geez there a lotta good points about, makes me kinda feel you know a bit pointless?

LOL
