Of course we would have to think of a name that recognized your alien smashing contributions and preserved your legacy within the greater whole of course. I already have one but wont post it here. You know others may be listening. And like I said. Merging is not defeat. Nor is it Surrender.
Captain Jack Sparrow
Actually if you like those things Paguma said you should want to see them protected from the Torians. By G.R.O.S.S.
Welcome new members Capt Chaos: Good G.R.O.S.S. name there. Thelon Fairblade: With a name like Fairblade, obviously likes to sell used ships to Aliens. Both fine additions to the team.
Oh fleabit: You should have Joined G.R.O.S.S. Coloradans are welcome here. As a gone Golder, your options are only two. Whether you end up being midwest roadkill or G.R.O.S.S. roadkill. LMAO Gross roadkill. LOL Surther: speaking of spending time on others strings. There's a reply to your post on our communication thread. Perhaps it's time to bury your regional hatchet and acknowledge good players come from everywhere, not just the midwest?
Taking over much of the Galaxy: about 3 days Fundamentalists taking their cut of half of what you've worked for: about 30 seconds.
#96 by Citizen surther - 5/12/2003 12:19:36 PM We took you down once and we shall do it again. Nough said on that topic. What are we all going to do about the Euro dogs who are closing in on 1st place. This cannot be. I was just pondering that Surther: Furthermore, the Aussies and Kiwi's have merged and leapfrogged the both of us. It seems both our empires have the disadvantage of a late start. Our spies have been intercepting your communications. It seems to u
#93 by Citizen Christopher Packer - 5/12/2003 2:43:06 AM Ah Pontius, you almost had me until you mentioned long distance swimming. Then all of those images of Misty Hymen beating Our Girl at the Olympics came flooding back. I know you are not a regionalist..but still. Ahh but you guys took 1-2 in the mens 1500. We just don't have anyone willing to take that up and excell at it. And I did think it funny when our boys were over there 3 weeks telling how they were
Thelon that tactic of feigned neutrality is popular around here and much apprecieated.
Aha!!! see you Aussies and Kiwi's already are partially converted!!! You ditched your petty regional differences and combined. Now just come all the way and you shall have your own chapter of G.R.O.S.S.
LMAO EB, ok no more bragging. I think they are sufficiently humbled by their foot in mouth disease of yesterday. Besides. It's all about the Aliens. And you know, this Torian Sushi is pretty good. Now if I could just get those Kentucky Fried Drengin franchises up and running.
Farstryder. Perhaps you should join up with G.R.O.S.S. show that metaverse server you mean business. :)
So why is it so many people come to our string to recruit? They recognize the high caliber of MWC players. LMAO where's your logic? As if where someone comes from is what makes them a "high caliber player." I can think of nothing about my family hailing from Muncie, Indiana that prepared me for this game. Where's all that we defeated you smack today? Cat got your tongues? Since at the end of the day, we've had more points a bunch of times, does that mean we've defeated you a bunc
I definitely agree with what is being said about the small maps. They are harder (note, I haven't gone above medium yet, but I've won all my games on medium map size handlily while I've lost -a lot- of the smaller map sizes at normal difficulty). Technician, you should really try higher difficulty levels. Until you can win a game on masochistic, you have no room to criticize someone who has for playing on a small map. Remember, your credibility is only as high as your skill. Unless you
Are you concerned this factionalism distracts us from our goal? Namely subjugating the Universe. Well you can be all you can be in G.R.O.S.S. (Get Rid Of Slimy alienS) You don't have to be from anywhere. All you have to do is want to dominate aliens and the galaxy. Ruthlessness encouraged but not required. If Just win Baby sounds right for you, maybe you can be one of us. Sign up via the metaverse, then join us. It's that simple. It's going to be all ours in the end anyway. S
Hope everyone had a great mother's day. I'm going to turn in for the eve. Back at the old grind bright and early. Just win Baby.
Slapbone: We couldn't agree more. So join us. We would welcome your entire empire into G.R.O.S.S. by giving you our special death ray zorcher technology. So show these other empires how petty they truly are. Join us. United we can stand for mankind against its true enemy, the aliens. G-Force: Shouldn't you be with your Euro Friends doing such fun things as debating the merits of The Chunnel? :) LOL
From G.R.O.S.S intelligence Urgent alert urgent alert, condition red. condition red. rivals communications intercept, delta quadrant, beta 1 sector: #$#%^^&%^#$%#%@#^@^##%^ Holy cow look at G.R.O.S.S. moved up on us. #$$^%&@%#%%$%$%#%%$$%$$^# and all that smack talk we laid on em too. We sure stepped in it.$%%%*^%%^$^$%$%$%How!!!?? How can that ragtag group of newbies be beating us, seasonned players??? Looks like that guy we called myopic and Xenophobic scored
I just ran into this problem. Hit the enter key. It will end your turn. The turn goes as usual. Seems the button on the display is disabled, but not the shortcut at least in my game.
The G.R.O.S.S. guide (i prefer that term to leader) would like to extend the Aussi-empire a hearty handshake of friendship. The same handshake extended to us by your ambassador Christopher Packer.
Uh idle one lil question. How am I xenophobic when all can join G.R.O.S.S.? How are you not xenophobic when only mid-westerners,are allowed into your empire? Now it seems to me, G.R.O.S.S. is the less Xenophobic of the two empires. Speaking of Xenophobic, perhaps you can explain how I, your "xenophobic" guide (I prefer the term guide to leader or overlord) of G.R.O.S.S. scored a goody goody cultural win? Now when you were kidnapped by the Torians (and I don't want to

I have to wonder how he is handling this defeat. Although the MWC Link have won this battle, my fear is that the war is far from over. Captain out." Oh congrats. As Mr. Spock would say "Having, is sometimes not so nearly as good a thing as wanting. Illogical, but often true." An
Now back to the thread. MidnightBreakdown, made a very valid point. No one is acting to break the planet management all the way to its lowest levels. All we are asking for is give the planets some life. Make them more then PQ. Make the player want to defend them. _______ Actually my planets become quite varied in the game. I usually have a production center, and varius other centers of influence merely because of the type of starbase improvements and planet improvements I choo
EB coming right up into chat. Did you post your win?
Well put EB. Christopher that is right. We will show our love by giving you this one time opportunity to join us in G.R.O.S.S. Aussies are welcome too. Especially since you guys down there seem to like your distance swimming. Combined, we could really kick some buttoxe. You could even have your own chapter of G.R.O.S.S. down under.
I'm sorry, but I can't believe that there are people in the world who don't want to just be kind and show love to everyone. (Although we all agree you can trample those Euro Trash). As a member of the Aussie Empire I just want to give you the Hand of Friendship. Oh Christopher, we agree. Good luck with your Aussie empire. :) And we here at G.R.O.S.S. show complete love to our fellow humans, even the Euro empire. After all, they are our bretheren and after this is all over, they
