      A previous post in the webstory

      To UNREAL centipeade.

      1. So now we can post techs without putting them in the OOC?
      2. So now we can post STATS without putting them in the OOC?
      3. So now we don't have to pay?
      4. So now we can post stuff with NO logic.
      5. Take physics

      Black holes do not expand also if you had created one there would no longer be
      new cydonia. No armour can withstand black holes. Light cannot withstand
      blackholes. You couldn't capture it because anything within a system would get
      sucked in. Black holes are stable therefor not disapering because if it was
      unstable it wouldn't be created. I know this univerce is different than our own but
      still physics still exists.
      Facts still exist.
      And apparently incompetent people still exist!
      I wish you would know what you are talking about before you post. And I want you to
      answer each question above logicly. And also do not avoid some questions by
      answering only one!

      P.S. by the way if you had read the rules or your physics text book you might not of
      embaressed your self by your incompetentance. Have fun aswering the above
      questions.

    • Ships I forgot to post in this forum.
      (Read this at the risk of immense boredom, I fell asleep writing it.)

      Hammerhead:
      Speed: 400
      Turn: Very Good
      Accel: Very Good
      Shield: 30
      Armor: 40
      Outfits:
      Installed cloaking device, installed 6 Electron cannons, always go through spaceflight training so they get standard upgrades, in other words, RCS, Engine, Thruster, Equivalent of 2 shield boosters, Equivalent of 6 Shield Enhancers (+30), streamlined shape, improved armor (+10) etc.
      Special weaponry:
      Specialty design that allows them to cloak and enter shields into battery to be restored. Heavy alloyed front end for puncture collisions against hull only when shields are down.
      Damage:
      Energy: 10
      Armor: Disables.

      Missile Frigate:
      Speed: 280
      Turn: Poor
      Accel: Good
      Shields: 500
      Armor: 300
      Using a system of modified javelin rockets this ship is formidable against any large vessel.
      Standard Outfits:
      2 Xenocide™ repulser wave, 10 frontal modified reload javelin launchers (combined rof 1000 rockets per second)m, 10 manned turrets placed up the sides of the vessel to target attacking fighters. (Independent rof 100 rps) Due to specialty reload systems all can be refilled from a stockpile of 10 Million javelin rockets. All flight school upgrades included.

      Hammerhead bay:
      Carrys 6 Hammerhead fighters, launch time 2 every 2 minutes. (2 launch simultaneously due to double size entrance.

      Hammerhead Carrier:
      Speed: 280
      Turn: Poor
      Accel: Good
      Shields: 500
      Armor: 300
      Built from the same basic design as the Missile Frigate this ship is fast but does not turn easily. It is essentially a fighter carrier for the dangerous Hammerheads.
      Outfits: 10 Hammerhead bays (60 Hammerheads), 2 Xenocide™ repulser wave, 12 electron cannons.

      That was the biggest waste of time ever.

      The mines don't "magicly come together" they basicly are laser cannons that are
      triggerd when enemy ships come near.
      You would of known that but aparently
      YOU DON'T READ YOUR OWN WENSTORY!!! And you alwas tell us to read it
      HYPOCRITE
      I don't care what you people come up with as long as it MAKES SENCE. NOTHING
      you Hypocrites come up with has any logic behind it. If unreal has logic to back his
      mouth I will not care but if this aparrent two year old continues to make CRAP UP
      well we can alwas do paraniod's back up plan. I will send it to you desert.
      and What he said 🙂
      EDIT: It's valid under what sun?
      And are you high? or drunk? Or both?

      Double edit:
      EVula we need to get a moderater who knows what he is doing.

    • I will withdraw my mines if you pay fair compensation of 5 Billion credits if not I have other defenses I can install such as a rock wall and fixed jumpgates so all ships that enter my systems are destroyed. I Could be Invincible, but I play fair I do not go down to the Inferno which you belong in.

      And yours. You spelled Captain wrong in your name. Spelling mistakes aside, i think it's time to wrap this story up and write a sequel. With a set number of player slots so there isnt a lot of newbies entering. Some writen and unchangable rules would be nice too. If there were writen rules you wouldnt have to accuse them of making things up.

    • It's good to have you back U.E. admiral. I also agree with the fact that there is actual
      rules to live by. I however think that no one person should acctuly write the rules.
      The rules should be decided by everyone. And I don't care who will be the next moderater as long as it is no one that will actully participate in the webstory. I don't care if you elect me I will no accsept and I urge the matter would be controlled by some one neutral. Like EVula but he is probably to busy to hlp us so we would need someone that we all would agree on to be moderator. And it should be in total agreement.
      So here it is simplified

      1. no one write the rules alone but with all who are transferring to the new.
      2. The web mod should not be involved with the webstory and be compleatly
        neutrel
      3. we should try to come up with comprimises instead of beating it out.
      4. Get Beeblebrox back!!
      5. in the begining all sides should be equal.
      6. we find a way to hook in newbies.
      7. leave the aruging to the webstory. If we don't like each other we shouldn't rant about it in the OOC. What we should do is act like beeblebrox did as a perfect confederate zealot. (or fanatic)

      These are just suggestions but they should be thought about, and concidered

      P.S. Paraniod spelling dosn't matter unless we don't know what they are saying.

    • U.E. Admiral it is good to have you back. If you read the story I am already beginning a galactic escape from the galaxy. This provides room for a sequel and an end to the potential of this webstory. All systems my allies own would be transported over a period of 200 real time years, but for us due to relativity only several years would pass. The new galaxy is also a good excuse to bring aliens in and traveling lets the remaining players maintain their identitys an agendas.
      I also agree that set slots must be utilized.
      Finally I must say that due to moderation and fairness in general a completely impartial moderator must be selected. Meaning that they could not have control over any faction but would only be a referee. The problem with this is that it would be the most boring duty possible to have.

      Uhh... impartial moderator? No playin' in story? Hrm. I might be available, but I'll warn you... if you do want me to moderate this sequel, a couple of you might seriously regret it after a bit - I'm kinda' harsh on the revoke and moderation thing sometimes (not to mention being prone to turning existing rule systems on their heads - how would you like to abolish money altogether?) I tend to be impartial, though, so...

      It strikes me that this webstory turned into a flame fest not because of a lack of an impartial moderator, but because it doesn't look like you have a regular AIM community. For example, in Eve of Destruction, the people who don't follow along with the rules are without exception the people who don't talk to everybody else on AIM. And if you do have realtime communication, you get problems solved quickly and conclusively, rather than spending all your time bitching in the actual topic or in the OOC thread. (Of course, if you do build an AIM community - assuming you don't already have one, what would I know - the story moderators become arbiters for any chat room discussions.)

      'nyway, if you need an impartial moderator, I'm up for it at the moment, providing you give me something nice to read now and then. Reading fleet updates gets rather boring, y'know? The whole moderator-doesn't-play-in-story thing wouldn't be too bad either, since I'm a bit short of time and I'm already writing in EoD (on the EVO forum.) 'do think it's rather an unnecessary precaution, though.

      Yeah... well... see what 'ya think, 'kay?

      Oh... one more thing. I haven't noticed a single poster on this page who doesn't need to work on their spelling, grammar, punctuation, writing style or clarity, so you might as well quit insulting each other.

      See Microsoft's 'Switch' Campaign; just goto (url="http://"http://www.EVula.org/beeblebrox/convert.pdf")here(/url)

    • Ok here it is:
      Major Gonverment (each?):
      2 Players
      Minor:
      3 Players
      Bounty Hunter:
      5 Players

      Ill fill the second position in Confederation.

    • I take Trader or merchant.
      And I think the two Major ? goverments should be
      confederate/ rebel
      I also think that Their should be smaller sects like a smaller group of feds or rebles
      Aka smaller factions.

      ------------------
      Are we sad because it rains or does it rain because we are sad?

    • I say that we shall move to another univerce.
      New planets,
      new syts,
      New races like alien races.
      Suggestion- all aliens be much more powerful than humans but they should take time to communicate with.

    • 5 Bounty hunters? That would be chaotic. Also a pirate goverment is necessary in this case as well as minor goverments.

    • To Desert tempest:
      I will concider jioning the EVO web bored if the new one we are plotting isn't good. I acctully think it might be because there will be no moderator who is involved. I hope you will join i it being that you are a very capalble writer but as I said if it doesn't workout I will go to EVO or EVN
      To SilverDragon
      You are now our impartial moderator. That is if every one else agree's.
      by the way what is your favorate faction. (aka rebels, confeds, etc.)

      I do so hope I just agreed to be the impartial moderator in the next story... and not to be the moderator of the current "EV Webstory" (I'm far too far behind to do that one.)

      As for my favourite faction... I don't particularly have one. Obviously, the game is tilted towards the Rebellion both morally and militarily, with the Rebellion having a superior navy to the Confederation as well as apparently the ethical high ground. Now and then, that leads me to support the Confederation anyway. I don't think much can be said about the EV pirates - they are pirates, and it's quite clear they don't have much in the way of a meaningful agenda, unlike the EVO renegades could be said to have. As for the aliens, if you include those, there's hardly enough information about them to draw any sort of logical conclusion. In the Lethe-Cydonia war, I tend to side with the Cydonians, mostly because nobody else does.

      But really, I don't have any existing bias. The only way I know to get me biased against someone is to persistently write crap and completely avoid any sort of character interaction and narrative/descriptive text. And usually that's only an 'iqqle bias...

      As for everyone else agreeing, it strikes me that "everyone else" didn't even notice my post. <sticks tongue out>

      Hey... one last thing, Xenocide. Do we have to use the yucky number-based money system for everything? Has there been a single EV webstory that has taken a more relaxed path? It's quite interesting, looking at the webstories that spring from the two communities - EV stories are all very mathematical, and tend to be based on absurdly low government money incomes, whereas EVO stories have a more relaxed ship production (per post, per day or per post in the topic) and research system.
