Team Lux Invicta - Page 6

Jon Shafer · November 21, 2002, 16:11

Sorry, I was a bit occupied.

And yes, Calc and status you two are welcome.

And let me add one more thing.

Membership is now closed
We ended up being a bit larger than I planned, but that's okay. I'm sorry to all those who would have liked to have joined. Perhaps sometime soon we'll conduct a poll to allow for enlarged membership.

Zero · November 22, 2002, 23:49

13 is a great number. But not in the states for some reason

Dominae · November 28, 2002, 16:39

Members of Lux Invicta,

Greetings and salutions! I trust your preparations for the fateful first day of the DemoGame are well under way and going well. As part of our own preparations, the diplomats of Gathering Storm have been sent out to officially contact each other team. Thus, I introduce myself:

Dominae of Gathering Storm, Ambassador to Lux Invicta.

My roles as ambassador is simple: I am to represent Gathering Storm in diplomatic relations between our teams. Rest assured that I will be honest and faithful messenger. Although my allegiance is to the great Gathering Storm, I promise to hold the opinion and will of your people in high regard.

Feel free to contact me anytime, about anything, via any channel, but know that I am sworn to report any and all communications with your team to my supervisor, the illustrious Meshelic.

May our relationship be fruitful!

Dominae of Gathering Storm
Ambassador to Lux Invicta

P.S: Please respond to this greeting before the game commences on or around December 1st.

Zero · November 28, 2002, 17:52

Greetings and salutations back to you Dominae! It should be the case that an ambassador should be replying with a warm welcoming, but I am sorry to tell you that with our minister of foreign relations just recently nominated, he didn't have enough time to appoint the diplomats appropriate for the GoS. I apologize that an official diplomat has not come to you in place of me, but I assure you that we are taking careful consideration of who is best to represent us, so that we may have good standing relationship instead of someone without any diplomatic skills that may cause misunderstanding between us. Please wait patiently until sort this out. The official diplomat, once appointe, will reply to you ASAP.

Hi, I didn't recognize the your logo recently, and got confused.

Well, now I see...
But what does it actually resemble?

I'm Pedro by the way, just another Rõleplayèr popping by.

statusperfect · November 29, 2002, 08:52

It's a half maple leaf and the letters L.I.D.G.

Apocalypse · November 29, 2002, 19:34

From the Red Cross book, Glossary 5
"[Mark of NERV]
The Secret Agency NERV has a mark which is composed of three parts: the name of the organisation, a picture and a motto. The name of the organisation is the 4 character word "NERV". The motto is "God is in his heaven. All right with the world," a section taken from "Pippa Passes," written by a 19th century poet Robert Browning. And then the picture is a half piece of fig leaf. The fig leaf, accoring to legend, is the symbol of the original sin which entangled Adam and Eve. It reminds us of the human who ate the Fruit of Wisdom."

Apocalypse · November 29, 2002, 19:49

This is another logo we could of used. It shouldn't take much to realize what it is referencing.

Jon Shafer · November 29, 2002, 20:38

I always hated that image...

So asymmetrical.

Apocalypse · November 29, 2002, 20:47

That is one of the things that makes it so freakish though.

Zero · November 30, 2002, 12:43

Actually trip, couldnt the eyes be more symetrical by placing them as a septagon? Why does the right have an extra eye anyway? Is there a reason why it's split up in 3 -4 instead of 4-3? just wondering...

Isn't lilth's face covered by the seven seal mask? Is there any significance of the mask coming off in EoE?

Spiffor · December 2, 2002, 20:54

On behalf of the Legoland team (I don't know if you contacted other teams yet), do you have an ambassador/ foreign minister for us to contact ?
I'm no ambassador to your team, but the Legoland would be very interested in this info, as well as other teams you could not have contacted

EDIT : I heard AdmiralPJ is the FAM of your team. Please don't hesitate to contact us

Why not have uneven number of eyes? Actually, IIRC, it is based of some painting.

The mask coming off is needed, for obvious reasons. If it stayed on it wouldn't make any sense.

That's correct, PJ is our representative.
He will begin establishing permanent and regular diplomatic relations with all teams shortly.

WarriorPoet · December 3, 2002, 14:51

Mutual respect by all sides is the best way to assure a healthy relationship

Admiral PJ · December 3, 2002, 17:57

I contacted Legoland, members can see the results in our private forum, basically they want us
to email 2 of their addresses when passing on saves.

It seems we are playing on regent level now..
but things seem to be going smoothly again.

We invite anyone to come and visit Turkish Luxia.

Meshelic · December 4, 2002, 03:02

Greetings from the Gathering Storm! I have come afar from distant lands to welcome relations with Lux Invictica. I am the Foreign Minister of the GS, and I bring with me our ambassador to you, Dominae. If you have anything you wish to discuss or negotiate, either PM Dominae or myself if he cannot be reached. Let us hope that we may enjoy good relations with each other and best of luck to both of us! Now I begin my return trip to Gathering Storm lands. Thank you.

jdjdjd · December 4, 2002, 13:00

Greetings to the People of Lux Invicta and Hail to Renowned Supreme Leader, Trip:

I, jdjdjd, a man of means by no means, the humble servant of His Grace, Supreme Leader Togas of the Spanish (Roleplay Team); do come as ambassador of Spain to you the people of the Invincible Light. We wish to open communications with you, and I offer you a Laurel and Hardy handshake as a sign that we wish nothing but goodwill and respect towards Lux Invicta.

I understand the Great Admiral PJ is your Foreign Minister, shall I continue communications with him, or shall I continue with someone else? Please direct me, and I shall comply.

I remain your most humble servant,

Senor jdjdjd

P.S. Rest assured that any involvement I have in my heresy trial will not detract me from my mission to the Wonderful Land of the Turks, Lux Invicta.

WarriorPoet · December 4, 2002, 14:05

*gives a respectful bow to new arriving dignitaries, and with a wave of his armored fist and a flurish of his crimson cape, ushers the arrivals towards the humble consul, AdmiralPJ*

AdmiralPJ will see you momentarily

lmtoops · December 5, 2002, 13:52

As member of Legoland, I am pleased to announce that I an the ambassador to the Lux Invicta. I am your primary contact with the Legoland team.

I am an active member of Legoland, and that is where my allegance lies. But as ambassador to Lux Invicta, I promise to also keep in mind your needs. I fully understand that the best agreements are those that are in our mutual best interests.

My preference is that all communications are done via Apolyton PMs. All PMs that I sent are considered semi-public, in that your ambassador is free to quote any part of my PMs in your private forum. I requrest that you restrict my PMs to your private forum.

Thank you and here to the future success of both our nations,
Lmtoops

Admiral PJ · December 5, 2002, 21:12

Hi lmtoops, jdjdjd, meshelic, We welcome you to Lux Invictas Tribal Hut.

You'll soon be allocated an Ambasaddor, and later Diplomatics when either of us discovers writing ( if you pay for embassies we may refund some of your trade taxes

)
I'm sure we won't be planting a spy in your midst though , at least not as far as you know of (intel agencies).

Any requests you have for trades, or alliances will be respected and considered in a positive light.
We were thinking of giving out amassadors on a rota system based on contact, but we'll see what the others think.

Contact me on peter@artpac.demon.co.uk
or
ArchimedesPJT on yahoo

i'll reinstall ICQ too, thats a nice comms program.

seven eyes represent seven seals (bible, revelations)

I was wondering if the mask coming off had anything to do with seventh seal being unlocked

lmtoops · December 6, 2002, 02:09

Thank you AdmiralPJ. I will stay in touch and hope to find deals that suite our mutual benefit.

Meshelic · December 6, 2002, 04:32

Thank you for your apt reply AdmiralPJ, I thank you as Foreign Minister of the Gathering Storm. May our two nations live peacefully together for the common goal of furthering our culture.

jdjdjd · December 6, 2002, 13:16

AdmiralPJ,

Thank you for prompt reply, and it was a pleasure speaking to you last night. I look forward to a long and prosperous relationship with Lux Invicta.

Señor jdjdjd

Jon Shafer · December 12, 2002, 15:00

Okay, if the people who randomly have added themselves to Lux Invicta's team see this, please state your reason as to doing so here...

WarriorPoet · December 12, 2002, 19:03

In regards to the random individuals...

Our humble and peace-loving forces are always looking for practice dummies...for their....ummm...turnip guns

alva · December 20, 2002, 14:11

Hi guys,
this is a non-demo related subject, but is Calc still around?
I tried to get in contact with him trough PM and Mail, but didn't get any response

Could one of you ask him to contact me or Frustrated Poet

(it's about another PBEM game)

Thanks

Jon Shafer · December 24, 2002, 00:04

Yes, he still seems to be alive from what I can tell.

alva · December 24, 2002, 04:18
