Should we reactivate the shaddow forum or start a new forum for pupose of discussing details of war? My main reason of proposing this is that I'm not sure if it will be 100% safe if we have all the exact war plan here like in metric hour 1700 twenty choppers will be dispersed to target area B and such.

I'm setting this poll to expire in 2 days so that if we want to we would still have some time to do it before the next turn arrives.

t_ras · February 2, 2004, 17:46

lets go for it!!

Jamski · February 2, 2004, 17:58

Let's not. Tass is about to sweep our forums clean anyway.

t_ras · February 2, 2004, 18:01

yes!! lets go for that too!!

Jamski · February 2, 2004, 18:13

Wow! I love this enthusiasm

I'm supporting a revolutionist purge of the Hive.

I also support the EMM.

Dear Jamski, you know that I value your opinion greatly. What is it that makes you so uncomfortable with the other forum idear? If we are absolutely sure that this forum is safe, then I will start discussing details here. I just didn't want anybody outside of Hive to know our exact plan. I guess if they are able to get in this forum they would have plenty of ideas that we are going to a war against the univ in the near future anyway. But at least they don't know exactly when yet. Everybody tells me, does this matter or not? For I really wants to start talking details.

Jamski · February 3, 2004, 18:28

Well, according to Maniac's PM, he doesn't even know about our status regarding the Drones, so I'd say we're pretty safe.

-Jam

Snowflake · February 3, 2004, 19:00

But are you sure they are not doing that deliberately to stall us?

Voltaire · February 3, 2004, 23:23

Hmm, HongHu might have a point, perhaps the CyCon are trying to stall us until they have a bigger military force. Then acting quickly may be in our advantage.

Though this remains a possibility, I must say that to be honest I still prefer the prudent approach of placing ourselves beyond defeat, then worrying about defeating the enemy.

Nah!

Jamski is one of the 'Core' Hive members.

He wouldn't be happy anyplace else.

[And he knows it's true.]

The 2155 intell shows that they are still building a lot of crawlers and such.

I would like to have an ovewhelming force to hit them with before we attack, but I am willing to hit them as soon as we have the abiltity to hit them hard and hold our gains while we advance further.

Right now, it looks like they are still building Drone Control facilities in the newly conquered former Pirate bases. I do not want to wait until they get those bases on-line and producing military units (including aviation units).

Let's hit, hit hard, and hold what we take. But let's not wait until they assimilate the new Uni and Pirate accesions (Plus DAP) into their collective.

Good job Mead.

t_ras, remember if we are going to do that, we will be cooperating with the Drones.

t_ras · February 4, 2004, 12:08

forgot that, ill have to check their production capabilites.
maybe production should be coordinated with them to make a complet war-force.
for how deep coordinations do we trust them? at all level?

Snowflake · February 4, 2004, 12:13

After the next turn arrives I would be trusting them at all levels. That is if they have kept their words and provided us with the needed prototype.

Jamski · February 4, 2004, 13:52

Ditto. This is the turn when we see if the Drones are with us to the very end.

-Jam

Frankychan · February 4, 2004, 19:39

True, we hit them with what we can, then the Drones follow suit. Of course, if this is some sort of trap concocted by the CPU and Drones, we might get screwed.

Jamski · February 4, 2004, 19:50

Ah, if CyUni and Drones are both against us, we're screwed whatever we do

Snowflake · February 6, 2004, 12:50

This poll is closed with 6 for and 1 against. However I have chosen not to reactivate the shaddow forum at this time. I have consulted with GooglieGod again and was assured that there has not been any sign of forum infiltration from other teams. Since GooglieGod and tassgod will be actively monitoring the other forums and the game turns of the other teams, I am now sure that if anybody has done anything to counter our plan due to illegally obtained information, the gods will be able to catch it. We are now having very good discussions here in this forum, I'm not sure if openning another forum will actually have some negative effect. So I have chosen not to open another forum and trust the gods for our safty.

(Sorry about running the poll but not carrying out the decision. Please let me know if you think differently.)

Frankychan · February 6, 2004, 18:14

Wise decision.....but what about things outside the realm of Apolyton, such as MSN or email?

Concurrently, we should increase our relations with the PEACE and treat them as an equal despite their current situation. If they feel like they are "part of the team", hopefully they will be more willing to contribute more resources when the Drone/Hive alliance starts carving up the CPU.

Snowflake · February 6, 2004, 18:17

I agree entirely Comrade Franky. I feel that the PEACE have been behaving very honorably, not asking for more help when they really needed. They could have asked for some ecs a long way back. My bad not looking at the infiltration window frequently enough. I only hope they can be kept afloat after this next turn.

Snowflake · February 6, 2004, 18:19

As for MSN chat and emails, I agree they are unmonitorable by the gods. However if they have made plans that is specifically counter our movements then the gods would have sufficient reason to suspect I would think. So in one word, in god we trust.

[edit] Oops that is not one word.

Jamski · February 6, 2004, 21:14

That phrase make me sick.

Frankychan · February 6, 2004, 21:22

Easy comrade, easy.

Snowflake · February 7, 2004, 01:14

/me looks in concern at a pale faced Jamski.

Oh no! How about change it to in GooglieGod we trust? Feeling better? How about in luck we trust? Or perhaps in nothing we trust? Better now?

/me is real concerned.

Jamski · February 7, 2004, 10:12

Sorry, too late
