Also should we produce a SP PRAVDA edition to celebrate?

-Jam

Kody · September 29, 2003, 05:22

That pravda had already been printed by Octavian. Also we're waiting for the other teams to make the first response on the public forums.

Jamski · September 29, 2003, 05:28

Do you think they will? It would be great to come out with a "3 SPs - we are so great" edition

-Jam

Kody · September 29, 2003, 05:35

I'm more worried about creating an early alliance against us. Remember the drones and the university were feared because they were expected to do really well and the cycon were trying to put an alliance together against them.

Vev · September 29, 2003, 06:53

Could someone provide some stimulus for me to work on so that I don't have to rely on a random word generator as a seed my ideas.

Jamski · September 29, 2003, 07:05

What's wrong with the random word generator?

-Jam

Kody · September 29, 2003, 07:41

stimulus for vev

* government restructing

* government announces plans to create proprecation camps for the express purpose of increasing the population.

* The Hive government decides to move all the lower class citizens out of the captial "The Hive", and restore the popluation with their own offspring.

* Announces plans to setup two library nodes in the near future.

* hive demands claire back from the pirates

Vev · September 29, 2003, 08:02

oooh nodes - I like that.

Jamski · September 29, 2003, 08:04

Hive population made extra happy by having VW and no nodes

Kody says "its all part of the 16,467 year plan"

-Jam

Vev · September 29, 2003, 08:15

part of the Great Leap in Public Education project

Snowflake · September 29, 2003, 10:00

rumored relocation of the capital (donot need to reveal the true location)

Micha · September 29, 2003, 17:30

We won´t mention that we don´t have any nodes, will we?

Jamski · September 29, 2003, 18:05

It would be rubbing salt in to say that we have the VW and no nodes to benefit from it

I vote we doitnow!

-Jam

Vev · September 29, 2003, 19:18

That would be saying sometihng

I like the idea of flaunting, but need to think of consequences.

CCC ANNOUNCES CREATION OF PROCREATION CAMPS

In a interbase announcement on the PRAVDA Pre-noon Discussion, Glorious Comrade Vev announced that the Hive needs more people. "We have bases from coast to coast and no little kiddies to fill the child labor camps" He said, "So therefore, I have intiated the Second EXpansion plan."
This S-EX plan requires first that every woman register at the nearest Central Plannign Commune. There, the women will be tested for verility and availibility. Once deemed to be proper subjects, they will report to redepolyment centers to be transported to the Capital City.
Already in the first stages of the S-EX, many of the upper members of the CCC were unable to be contacted for comment. However, this reporter found the Comrade Censor of the People's Congress, Comrade Vander, on his way back to his residence. When asked about the S-EX, Comrade Vander stated, "Much of the CCC is already doing their part to make the S-EX the most productive of all Expansion plans. Why, even I myself am devoting every waking hour to the S-EX to make sure that all sutable women are taken care of."
After answering this reporter's question, the People's Censor was seen quickly walking back to his residence across the street. Muttering something that sounded like, "The chairman wants these women in Japanese schoolgirl uniforms? And what of these tentacles?"

*****
Actually, the end might be a bit too suggestive...

Oh what the hell.

Micha · September 30, 2003, 09:51

Hey Vev, could you please update your PRAVDA link list at "the planetary archieves"?

PRAVDA #4 : http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...threadid=86923
PRAVDA #7 : http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...threadid=88969
PRAVDA #8 : http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...threadid=89356
PRAVDA #13:http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...threadid=92755

the links you used lead to the initial posts, whereas all other pravda links lead to the whole threads...

Just a minor thing, though

Jamski · September 30, 2003, 12:21

What is it with Japanese school girls uniforms? They are far inferior to Dirndl

-Jam

Micha · September 30, 2003, 13:58

Jamski´s right!

Possibly the glorious Chairman hasn´t experienced the "Dirndl" style yet

Octavian X · September 30, 2003, 17:08

Freaks...

Jamski · September 30, 2003, 18:27

We must find pictures for OctavianX

Dirndl fans unite!!!!!!!!!

-Jam

Vev · September 30, 2003, 18:28

I vote for a change to Drindl!

Vev · September 30, 2003, 18:38

I think I have some around from Micha's searches.

Rokossovky · October 14, 2003, 23:26

Booga Booga Booga!!

We've got ourselves all dressed up now for some articles on it.
For those that are confused. This turn we're dressed up as the Order of St Benedict.

Vander · November 10, 2003, 18:20

Figure it's about time for some new articles....

First some ideas:
I think that the antagonists of any articles written needs to be one of the computer teams. We can not say that "Hive Police find University Spy!" in PRAVDA (unless we do

) It'd be bad for the ol' international reputation.
Second, it might be a good idea to have chaotic and subtle references to the other factions in PRAVDA. There has to be members of the other factions that will read PRAVDA with the thoughts that they can figure out what we are doing by reading it. So we should write these articles to confuse those readers, keep them on their toes.

FOREIGN PROPAGANDA FOUND!
Antention citizens of the Glorious Hive! It was discovred yesterday that there is an evil and corrupting influence in the bowels of the Hive! Beware!! Should you find suspisious material, DO NOT READ IT! Bring to your local police Kommisar at once!
How will you recognoze it?
- It may be titled as The Word of God
- It may make references to a higher power other than the glorious chairman
- It has a symbol not unlike that of a crucifix somewhere on it.

BEWARE citizen! The "absolute truths" contained in are nothing but! This propaganda will pull you away from the glorious Hive; you will succumb to the corruption of democracy and reject all that is good for mankind on planet!

POLICE KOMMISARS: It is thought that this propaganda is coming from Sister Miriam, formerly of the Unity. It appears that she has survived the landing and has built a fanatical following around herself. Should you hear anyone speaking of Miriam or her followers/ message, bring them to iterrogation immediately.

TRY NEW HI-V! THE DRINK FOR THE HIVE!
Hey you! Have you tried Hi- V, the newest drink from Hive Beverage Node 1161? Well you bettr have, or else you will be destroyed! Hi-V has every essential vitamin and nutrient that you need, and some you don't! If that doesn't convice you, then listen to these testamonials:
"I love Hi-V! It is all I need to work the 16 hour day that the glorious chairman humbly requests us to do." - Anika, 23, Hive Housing Division 7345-1
"I love it. It is the best! And because there is nothing else to drink, it is the obvious winner!" - Tomathis, 17, Hive Machine Shop 114-AB
"I could drink Hi-V for the rest of my days! What? I only get 12 more cans? But you said I would have a lifetime supply..." Mikael, 41 Hive Drone Camp 9A, Block 12

So there you go comrades! Drink Hi-V like all the other members of the glorious Hive! Be one with us! And remember, the nail that sticks out gets hammered back into place...

Jamski · November 11, 2003, 05:54

Was Hi-V supposed to be so much like HIV i.e. AIDS?

-Jam

Vander · November 11, 2003, 21:57

We've had a drink over here called Hi-C, but the HIV inntonation is not bad either.

So does anyone have any more ideas to post? I say we get eight or so articles and then get another PRAVDA out. Let's liven up the place.

Vev · November 11, 2003, 22:02

Give me a word (make it general) that I could use for a topic.

Vander · November 12, 2003, 01:10

How about an advertisement for a new model of former/ speeder/ foil?
Or try to make some 'light' fun of one of the other factions. Nothing that will cause a damper on relations, but something that is cute and funny.

Octavian X · November 12, 2003, 02:39

Cheese. Make an article about cheese...
