G.R.O.S.S. communication thread.

from Stardock Forums
Cringe in fear do gooders. The G.R.O.S.S. (Get Rid Of Slimy alienS) empire is now formed. In less than an hour we have jumped 95 other Pacifist Doo Gooder victim empires and lept into 40th out of 135 ranked.

We are an evil empire bent on controlling everything and showing all the other empires out there who's boss. US. Are you listening Euro-"Oh lets let everyone be a senator and give em a vote doo gooder democracy alliance?" We come for you.

For a limited time, (untill I decide otherwise) 5 Pure Evil games, (or just impressing me with your game evilness) submitted will get you a Senatorship. Later, being the evil empire pyramid scheme we are, it will take 10. Of course, being the evil empire we are, that gives you no benefits, no pay, but all the alien carnage you crave most.

Now we do realize that sometimes, you just have to fake being good. You sometimes just have to infiltrate that pacifist party. We understand. But we aren't a kinder gentler empire and don't let their pacifism go to your head. And just sometimes, you gotta let the Aliens live (where else would you find slaves for the heavy metal lava mines?)

In the future, we shall update each other in the empire via this thread, brag of our conquests, drink blood wine, and generally just poke fun (creatively and humorously) at those players whom we find to be too goody goodyish.

Our mottos.

G.R.O.S.S. Where being good is merely a temporary strategy.

Just win baby.

Here's your ration of skin you do gooder wimp Drengin slime. Now get back to work

EBZeroMatrix you have been made a senator.

I repeat. Cringe in fear, we come for you.

Excerpt from "A short history of the first metaverse clone wars." Published In the New United States Colony of Tortuga approximately 200 years after The war.

Volume 1. A prelude to war.

Prior to the first clone war, a sort of peace among the earth empires existed. This peace rested on a sort of balance of power system where if one empire got too big, the others would tacitly ally to thwart the power of the largest. This uneasy peace was kept primarily through the use of letters of commission to the G.R.O.S.S. privateers. Though all the empires openly dispised and punished piracy, all of them turned the other way when it was not perpetrated on them. This usually resulted in keeping the peace as the G.R.O.S.S. pirates usually were blamed. Always blamed but our clients are never caught was the motto of their commander, Pontius Bruin Pilot.
The discovery of the remnants of the United Nations one world government advocates (kicked off Earth by President Pat Robertson II of the old United States Empire and presumed dead), brought more temporary peace to the meta even as the flames of war were fanned.
The final nail in the coffin occurred from the most unlikey souce, the G.R.O.S.S. pirates. After repeated arrests, yet no convictions of the pirates by both the fellowship and the Guardians, the Pirates decided upon a secret and most unlikely hard and fast alliance with the Special forces and Jedi empires (Recall from our previous volume the Jedi empire rose out of the remnants of the republic, which the pirates annhiliated just two decades earlier). The core of the Special forces had been with the Pirates once but had finally settled down into empire building.
With this hard and fast alliance other empires quickly followed suit. The balance of power system's ability to maintain General peace, while allowing small skirmishes was no more. The Pirates than shipped Chick flicks to their adversary's makeing them most upset. The ability of the Black Market and the Balance of power system to keep order was done.
Without the two necessary institutions above, The ability of the diplomats to keep the peace was compromised. This culminated into one of their own insulting the Guardian Ambassador and Senate in their home planet of Paladin. This was ironic given these empires had formed their own secret alliance. The Renegade was expelled from the diplomats but the writing was on the wall. The fragile peace was breaking down.
The last vestages of the self-regulating system of distribution of good solid Male Staples (Porn movies, Booze, and illicit women) broke down. Following the crack down on Port Royale, by the Guardians, the Pirates along with their Jedi allies, in a bold move with Old Jedi terror stars with new pirate cloaking devices destroyed and sacked the home systems of both the Guardians and the Fellowship of the Ring (more on this in volume two) The two empires, realizing their new vulnerability, allied and declared war. March first. Though these battles occured prior to March first, In this writer's view, they should be considered as at least the start of the meta war. The Ring and Ring light empires as they were called were joined by the Diplomats. The MWC then declared war on their old adversaries the Pirates and allied with an equally unlikely source, the Euro's and Canadians, both of which called them bible and gun thumpers. Alliance and counter alliance formed, and wars were declared resulting in the first Metaverse Clone war was declared by all parties. General War was upon the metaverse.


Good luck everyone: The Cap'n.

TYTY since you liked it so much you may now thank me by ceasing to submit for the entire month of march.

P.S. I plan to write one for the war every other day or so, but I'll be a day or two behind so I can see what the scores are.
