2152 to the Believers. It's hard for me to describe exactly just how much I hate playing as the Spartans

Sorry for the double-load. My PC goes into a weird mode if I play a lot of PBEM games consecutively without rebooting. I usually reboot every 3 or 4 games, but I got lazy this morning and tried for a fifth. Bad decision.

No pods popped, no battles, nothing changed.

2153 sent to Garth

2155 to the Believers, although it looks like Bustamike will be away until around the 14th.

Bad news gang. I'll be gone from the 13th to the 18th or the 19th.

Actually, I'll be quite glad of it. I am so fed up of the lazy, stupid Spartan researchers and their equally lazy, stupid industrial co-workers. Too much posturing and weapon-polishing and not enough grafting going on for my liking.

Is that a coup I smell brewing in the Spartan Federation or just the Colonel's panties?

Well I sent my turn yesterday, but it looks like it will be 2 weeks before I get another one Hopefully I can forget how much the Believers suck in that amount of time.

I don't think the game has moved since you went away White Elephants. I certainly haven't received a turn. I'll email Busta to see if he's around ...

Well ... I've posted on the board to try to find a replacement player for Bustamike. Sorry to have to do this, as he was very reliable until his holiday, but I think over three weeks is long enough to wait.

Hi everyone! Thanks for letting me take this game. Sorry the turn is quite late, in future I should respond slightly quicker.

After the prolonged absence of CEO Bustamike of Morgan Industries, a hostile takeover bid by the new CEO Simpson II passed off today with only minor bloodshed.
Although the new CEO was extremely busy discussing matters with the base administrations and shouting wildly at former teams, he found time to make some comments exclusively for SimpsonNet on the exciting new direction our faction will be taking.

"The base assemblies are being mothballed immediately. Democracy is a great thing, but the resources needed to maintain the oversight commitees are horrendous. We hope to reinstate them at the appropriate time.
"We have every hope for peace with our neighbours, and would like to invite all who have not done so - in particular Colonel Misotu - to join us in a treaty of friendship. Also in the spirit of friendship, we hope that Garth Vader will remove the probe-team currently stationed just outside our borders. The new policy certainly does not involve the slackening of our network security."

Colonel Misotu extends warm greetings to the new CEO Simpson II. We would like to assure the CEO that a treaty of friendship between our peoples could be signed tomorrow - but only if the benefit is shared equally between our peoples.

Sadly, the previous incumbent felt it appropriate to attempt to bully the Spartans into a treaty with no compensation whatsoever. This is simply not acceptable, and we will not be bullied.

If you have a sensible proposal to make, then you will find us to be willing negotiators.

Turn 2157 to Misotu.

As I was saying to the Colonel when the comm-link became garbled, I can guarantee that the Spartan Federation will recieve absolutely no less than they are due in terms of all the benefits of a peace treaty.
Of course, the Spartan people are not so skilled in such trades as we Simpsonites... however, my people are far less skilled in the art of Vendetta than the Colonel's. If she wishes to reach an agreement which would reduce the penalties of both sides, then I would be delighted to hear of it.

The Spartans, too, are having trouble with the commlink. While it is generally adequate for our usual messages ("Die Whinging Wasters", "We Spit on Your Commune", "Your Networks have been Nuked" and that sort of thing) it is surprisingly inadequate for more delicate negotiations requiring several sentences.

We would point out to the CEO that, while his commercial skills are certainly unmatched, rich treaty revenues are dependent on the good will of the other party to the agreement. You could certainly expect to gain 1 energy per base *more* than we would from any treaty - a significant advantage once this energy has been fed through your no doubt excellent infrastructure.

In view of this, our diplomats will seek a private meeting to discuss how best to compensate the Spartan people for this inequity ...

2157 sent to Garth.

Hmm, I didn't read when I got my first turns after the break. I guess I should do so from now on.
