Oh bugger.
I'm sooo confused.
You lot just managed to pick my three favorite civs here. Excluding the Consciousness, I would love to be playing any of these...
Gag me with a xenospoon. It just isn't fair.

I'm joining up with the Consciousness, you should too. It would be irrational to do otherwise. All others shall be assimilated.
(Well there will be an attempt to cause all others to be assimilated, much as I like the Consciousness I have some definite doubts about its ability to compete against human controlled factions. I really hope we don't end up near the hive.)

I'm the opposite of History Guy - I don't especially like any of those civilizations.
But I'll be brave and sign up for the University.

Well, you know, I think, seeing as I can't stand the eeeeevil Hiverians too much (though I confess, I like Yang), and I really don't think barbarians...cough...I think I'll also sign up for the University, and get my hair all frizzy.
Yo-ho for science, unethical experimentations, and big labs. May we design the greatest Chironian drink of ALL TIME!! Yes, and then blow the minds of everyone else with our astronomical amounts of knowledge. Sounds good to me.

Titi Kappa-6 (TKG), please sign me up for the Cybernetic Consciousness as Mani Alpha-3. I'll join you and Bookwi Rho-4 in our colony pod.
Anyone else interested in free cyber implants? Drogi Upsilon-5 perhaps?

University for me. I don't own SMAX, so I couldn't be an active participant either in the Consciousness or the Pirates, and I hate Yang too much to play in his despicable faction.
Provost, here I go!

When the private forums are here, when a CMN has done his job, and when each faction has a moderator? Then it's that moderator's job to allow new members, no?

buster and Triped were asking for a fifth faction for them, I think that they could be convinced to join some of the less populated teams...

Mankind will only survive if it breaks with its weaknesses: Egoism. Pride. Greed.
Let´s take the last step on the long way to transcendence: Join mankind! Join the superior society! Join equality!
JOIN THE HIVE!!! * *
My personal aims are irrelevant. The hive is me. I am the hive. I will protect it, and I will die for it. LONG LIVE THE HIVE!!!
