Alright, seems like I have quite an enthusiastic response from folks in Meta. I will certainly try to write all of you in.
However, my next instalment is a rather special one reserved for a particular event.

Welcome to the Fellowship, Barry!
We need more warriors like you to counter the threat of the Undead.

I feel I must refute your self proclaimed spymasters description of the fine empire of the MWC as it seems that we will be having more interaction due to your surge in the rankings.
| In Meta, one of the most absurd empires would have to be the Mid-West Confederation Empire. It was not Mid-West. The empire was situated in the northwest corner. Maybe they should have called it Northwestern empire. |
|
Yes our empire is situated in the northwest corner of the metaverse but the founders of the MWC empire were colonists that originated from the Midwest of the United States of our homeworld Earth in the Sol system. As I'm sure we all have done as we've begun our colonization of the metaverse, we all have left our homeworlds to begin our new empires in the metaverse.
| Gengsta walked up to the sea-faring ship located at a dry-dock thousands of miles from any ocean. The Mid-Western empire had called their ship The Manifest Destiny. It didn't make any sense. The ship certainly wasn't going to manifest its destiny by parking itself in a dry dock. And what were these land-lubbers doing with a ship in their possession anyways? |
|
As it has been explained in the MWC comms, this was clearly a ruse for your spymaster, everyone knows that even the pirates flagship DOOM does not roam the seas anymore, it clearly is a space faring vessel of much acclaim. The Manifest Destiny is the MWC's sole Excalibur class warship, that was slaved over and built with the utmost care by our hardworking citizens. While the pirates may settle for smaller quicker cheaper ships due to their heavy investment in "morale improvements", we at the MWC invest our resources in PQ and manufacturing improvements so that our systems are full of lush famable and productive worlds.
| Gengsta walked up and met all the big names at the MWC: Plephart, Zoshan, Idleprocess, Kryofx, Surther. The only thing that seemed more glaring than their non-sequitirs was their hatred of the band of GROSS pirates. Their entire band shook their fist viciously as Surther gave a speech to rouse the farmers into action against the 'scourge' that was GROSS. |
|
Quite correct on all accounts. Some of our monikers are somewhat lame and nondescript but consistency and stability is what we value most. And yes, we do despise the pirates that loot and steal from hardworking citizens and plunder perfectly productive systems. That is why we are forever locked in conflict with GROSS.
You however in the Fellowship seem to be an honorable bunch. So we welcome your competition, members of the Fellowship. You have acquired some very big guns as of late and should prove to be a very worthy adversary. I wish you well in your travels through the metaverse. Although the borders of our two great empires are separated by a great distance, I look forward to the day when those borders will meet at the expense of those in between us.

The Fellowship now stands at #2, in case anybody was wondering.

As Barry walked into the inn, several faces turned to look at him. He could tell the patrons were wondering what this shabbily dressed warrior could do for the Fellowship. He, himself, questioned his abilities, but quickly convinced himself he had made the right decision. Calmly, he walked to the bar and ordered a pint of ale. He flipped a few coppers to the barkeep and turned. It was about time he introduced himself.
"I am Barry Light, a swordsman from Rohan. I am here to vow my allegiance to this Fellowship, and hope that we may prevail over our enemies."
Several of the patrons looked at each other, then one quietly said
"Congratulations. But you're in the GROSS bar, you idiot!"
The tankard of ale sat motionless in air, as Barry disappeared out the back.
| |
|
Wow! Fifth to first in what, two days?
Incredible...
| |
|
|
|
Yikes 
I just submitted my 'almost' 10k game and check the baord and where do I find us... 1st place?!!?
Looks like we gained some serious recruits and the pirates must have had a defection, although it doesn't look to me like it was to us, I could be wrong however.
In two days thw world changes so drastically... must be due to the way fate warps around me

|
|
|
"Hurrah for defectors!"
Surely this day will forever be enshrined in our hearts and minds. Michael the Bard is as we speak working on a commemorative poem.
| |
|
There once were some men from GROSS
Whose delusions were quite grandiose
They thought themselves thieves
But now PBP grieves
'Cause they just waved first place "Adios!"
| |
|
An elegant tune! It's always good to have a bard around. Now, where did I leave my ale?
| |
|
I'll be here all week, Barry, and don't forget to tip your waitress.
| |
|
Ah, yes...the tip.
"Don't walk into the GROSS bar."
"Look both ways before you cross hyperspace."
"A Ranger in hand is better than two in the shipyard."
