If everything gets calm down for good, then we still have that option in mind, everything depends in what happens in the next few days. I have not heard anything from Cotal and I don't know if she is even play right now.

By the way, I've decided not to update the website roster until things shake out, so if anybody wonders why some people are still there, that's why.

All new members:

If you haven't been to our website, please consider doing so. We have some good information on the FAQ and Strategies sections and more. Visit our site by following this http://www.angelfire.com/rings/fellowshipgalciv Link

Theoden:

Apologies for interrupting the Ring thread with this issue, but your comments deserve attention.

First, your travels and documentation of the state of the Metaverse will be sorely missed. I didn't feel insulted in the slightest by your prank, mainly because it wasn't aimed at me and because I wasn't on the Forum to see it. No need for further apologies.

Also, thank you for your earlier kudos on the website. Ironically, it's part of the problem. Keeping that monstrosity up to date takes a lot of time, and it's easy to get angry when hourly updates are necessary to keep up with pranksters.

I'm starting to feel like a firing cap here. I made a strictly personal decision to leave the Jedi because I didn't like shenanigans at our expense; fine. I explained my reasons in EXCRUCIATING detail over there; fine.

However, this seems to have started an avalanche. I've stated MANY, MANY TIMES that I hold no rancor whatsoever to Cotal/Amidala; I didn't leave because of her. Yet, nobody bothers to read what I say. BlueSteel takes my threads out of context to slam Cotal; the Jedi Order is splitting; Yoda's planning mass executions; etc. etc.

My submission schedule is erratic at best, but I've stayed around because I love the community. I can't speak for the rest of the Metaverse, but the Jedi are tearing themselves to pieces over there. I agree with Arcilte on this one. I'm through posting on this subject until people catch up on reading through my 250 posts or so. I'm sticking my head in the sand until this quiets down.

Obi Wan I know that you already told that you want to sit put for a while, but if you want you can come and join the Jedi Academy for the time being until things calm down and help the Academy with your valuable kwnoledge for a while. I think that at the end we will return, but still things are a little bit obscure. Still The Force has not reveal the future ahead of us.

      
#307  by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 10/28/2003 1:49:21 PM

Not a problem, Obi Wan. I'm glad you dropped in.

Thank you for clarifying your position again. I know how it feels to keep repeating the same things and nobody listens. Trust me when I say I respect you and your decision to leave the Jedi. I'm sure it was a very difficult decision to come to. This will eventually pass, just like many of the other "Days of Darkness" have (a term used by Ray a couple of times). Take your time and sort things out in your house. Part of why I'm not roaming through the Metaverse is I think all the empires need to drop back and figure out what's going on...and they certainly don't need my input as to what's best for their empire. We've got enough to worry about over here in the Fellowship!

When referring to the angst shown to Cotal/Amidala, I was really talking about others who seem to have blamed her for this mess. I hope you don't think I lumped you in there.

I'm guessing that recent events will eventually make all of us take a good look at ourselves and decide some things. In the end, the Metaverse will straighten itself out. I think the empire moves are not over yet. When they are, things will be a lot more clear and we'll move ahead from there.

You're always welcome in the Halls.

Time of Troubles! From "Forgotten Realms."

                        
#309  by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 10/28/2003 1:57:46 PM

Oops...yeah, sorry!:BLUSH:



                          
#310  by Veteran vincible - 10/28/2003 2:01:02 PM

Oh, and there's certainly no need for you (or anyone!) to apologize for jumping into this thread. Especially given the defections and retirements we've seen recently--this thread would be pretty sparse if no one else came here.

                        
#311  by Veteran Disciple777 - 10/28/2003 2:01:47 PM

Thanks for inviting to partcipate in here.

Time of Troubles


Oh, our little community has had a few of those. But we always survive somehow. Still, regardless over what opinion anyone has over a particular incident, I feel it is better to get them out in the open for discussion. This can be painful for some, yes, but I would much rather let people see my cards out on the table than to have a political tip-toe game where everybody keeps their feelings to themselves and hidden agendas created in shady back rooms of the internet start to rule the day. Gerakken may step on a few toes along the way, but you see me coming and that is far, far better than putting a knife in someone's back later. Just my thought at the moment. Back to your irregularly scheduled thread.

                      
#313  by Veteran GASherbert - 10/28/2003 3:06:52 PM

the Jedi's can't be a great place to stay anymore


It will be soon, I hope.

                      
#314  by Veteran Disciple777 - 10/28/2003 3:18:41 PM

Hopefully, althought the Jedi Academy tread is coming along real nice, we could merge both stories into one.

      
#315  by Veteran Captain Jack Sparrow - 10/28/2003 3:18:57 PM

Maybe it's time for another Galactic Peace Ball...


Oh yeah. Where we find out I'm also the daddy of the OTHER HALF of the metaverse via Cassiopia. Boy Jane must be tired.

                          
#316  by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 10/28/2003 3:33:16 PM

Just wanted to recognize Jack LEagle for moving through the difficulty levels successfully! You're zipping right up there!

                          
#317  by Citizen musicfan55 - 10/28/2003 4:02:29 PM

Congrats to Jack and others who are submitting games including Theoden for that big-time 60k.

I think the metaverse thing will take care of itself. Sorry anyone is getting upset. Looks like the next goal for FotR is 2.5 million mpts.

I am very early in my gigantic maso so it may be a while before I submit another. Just keep having fun playing Gal Civ and all will be fine.

                          
#318  by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 10/28/2003 4:11:45 PM

Found out about my Huge/Crippling Anomalous. CariElf said it is definitely too far gone to save. At least I know it was a money flag that caused it. I'm going to finish the Small/Maso I started last night and then I'm probably going to drop back to Huge/Crippling again. I really like that setup and feel like I need to take a Maso break!

Rick: Thanks for the kudos and thanks for staying with the Fellowship.

To all FoTR members: Thanks for all your time and effort. You are all appreciated and though we don't take the time enough to tell you, you are all vital parts of the empire. If there's ever anything that any of us can do to help, please let us know. The Fellowship prides itself in helping each other out, whether that help is strategy, technical, personal or whatever. Let's continue our tradition of helping those in need and being a beacon of stability in an ever-changing Metaverse.

Why do you want to get rid of your old games, anyway?


Well, I just figure I'd like to start anew. I haven't touched Galciv for a few months now, and many of my scores are old and incredibly low. (From many patches ago when scores were much less.) I figure, well, whatever empire I'm in should at least have the benefit of me providing a decent score...

Also, I regret to say it but I will now leave the Fellowship as well. For a long time I stayed in to assist in our competition with GROSS, but with first place solidly in the Fellowship's grasp that reason is no longer applicable.

Best of luck to you all, and keep up the good work!

      
#320  by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 10/28/2003 4:17:35 PM

Michael,

You'll always be welcome in the Halls of the Fellowship. Take care and good luck in your journeys! Did you realize your old empire is still out there? The one with the Jim Beam label? You should start that back up! It would be cool to see that in the Top 25!

                          
#321  by Veteran Disciple777 - 10/28/2003 4:20:47 PM

Or if you want you can join the new Jedi Academy recently created where the search for balance in The Force and training in the art of The Jedies is our only goal.

      
#322  by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 10/28/2003 4:32:15 PM

Time to go home, folks. I'll see everyone tomorrow, unless I finish that Small/Maso and have some time to talk later tonite.

                          
#323  by Veteran vincible - 10/28/2003 5:12:22 PM

Michael,
Your old scores don't hurt you. The scoring system got revised in such a way that the scores in each thirty day block are independent of each other.

                        
#324  by Citizen Wild Wombat - 10/28/2003 5:35:20 PM

Theoden and vincible

Like Obi, I just want to clarify the issues here. My post about the state of GROSS and the Posse (the 'soul searching' as you put it) has absolutely NOTHING to do with the Jedi stuff, or Cotal/Amidala. My post about that went up BEFORE Amidala changed empires - I'd like that noted, because it's important. GROSS has a particular issue, in my view - it has become Pontius + the Posse, not a large going concern: hence the reason for the soul search. An apology from either of you for pranking was not requested by me, or necessary from my point of view. I recognise a joke when I see one. The problem is that when genuine moves take place in the prank atmosphere, everyone gets tarred with the same brush, and regular players dont know what motives to ascribe to the movers. Amidala is entitled to play where she wants, of course, and my best wishes to her. We in the Posse were feeling some internal frustration (evidenced by Jaws rugby empire and Cypher's holiday in the ANZACs) and it was THAT I was specifically addressing: again, I put that up BEFORE all the other hoo-ha.

Abandoning your previous approach to the Meta hurts you and us, so dont be strangers to the Posse thread, OK?
