This post is realy for Blue . . .
Smeagol O if you read this I just wanted to say that beyond a sincere apology for the swipe I took at you weeks ago you don't seem to have moved on . . . why are you so unhappy and unhappy with me in particular?
There was a time when Wombat and me (or I . . . um I can never remember which syntax is right) didn't get along at all in the early days either. But I think we both learnt from the experience and pretty soon came to realize that our dispute was due to a lack of understanding of each others desires.
When Freedom Force and the Posse seemed to rip the earth from under the ANZACs I stood my ground and made myself very unpopular with GROSS in particular acting very much like you are now being full of resentment and spite.
I came to a realization pretty quick though about this community . . . I was a chick and all my bitching and nagging just wasn't welcome and the golden rules were freedom, tolerece and respect for others over and above anything else.
Pointius and Wombat (and a few others too many to remember) realy got the better of me several times with 'smack-downs' (flowergirl and the damsel in distress routine as references) which was good because I snapped out of the whole prima dona trip I was on.
You know I have a screen shot of the ANZACs in 2nd place which I will always treasure but empires rise and fall on the metaverse quicker than it takes friendships to heal.
Your younger than many of us here so I don't doubt that you'll eventualy figure this all out for yourself.
Anyway I mention this because I can see your dejected, email me if you want, I won't bite, but don't slurr these guys because you think they rejected you. You don't see me casting dispersions on some of the Jedi publicly for thier lack of enthusiasm at me joining them that would be ridiculous, wouldn't it . . .
Mabye a Cease fire? And each to his own

Woe! Just played a Huge where I played so much in the 'zone' I was almost abducted by the resident Aliens! For the first time ever I beat them to the end of the Research tree with a few techs left to spare . . . Mwa Mwawa Mwawawawahahaha!
Now that was sweet! The game took nearly 10 hours though, had a I-Leage event totaly ruin it about halfway through (took over absolutely every AI . . . Sheez!)
To give you an idea of how flukie a start I had . . . the % victory was 37% after my initial collinization! Thanks for your folks advice regarding how to bump up the scores a little . . . it was spot on (yielded an extra 3k almost) . . .
I for one can't wait until ver 1.12 . . . any word on this yet?
Jaws that is one of the funniest opening chapters you've ever written ROFL, might have something to do with the fact I'm addicted to LAW dramas on TV. I'm a big Flockheart fan . . . now thats a revalation! When they canceled the show I was devistated . . . Don't string me up for it.
Killa even your satirical mockery is a breath of fresh air . . . gives me a great idea . . . hehe
PS Evil Steve hiya hows it going? Yeah ditto to the special relationship, your about as special as they come . . . hehe
(note - a compliment that could easily be construde as something other than a compliment is ussauly a not a compliment but in this case should not be construded as anything other than a 'Hiho Howiz ya doinz me old buddie?' . . .)
