Corsair - Zoner

[spikefin]

The Zoners functioned best when we had the Council. We would debate, we would vote, there would be resolution. It did not fall apart because of a collapse in ideology. It collapsed because of oorp reasons (people got upset, leaders left, nobody wanted to pick up the torch). I was upset that after all the good the Council had done, suddenly people were just content to let it die and do its own thing. The Zoner official factions pretty much went 'Woop, no more council? Oh well! Time to go do our own thing.' I don't even remember what the Zoner Alliance was or attempted to be, because to do anything other than directly resume the role and form of the Council seemed to me absurd. I left Disco for a year, and when I came back, found the state of Zoner politics to be as muddled, directionless as I expected. On the sea of diplomacy, we are adrift. We are one boat with motors mounted on different sides, each attempting to push us in different directions, and getting us nowhere.

Are you that Ex-Zoner Gaurd I was talking to last week?

Sounds like it, Or is there more that 4 zoners returning after an extended leave horrified at the significant decline of zoner's gaming?

"Everyone wants the same tag but does not want to share responsibility for the other's mess. Which is a pity because that's half the fun of the game."

From memory most people had the opertunity to have there say back in there day.

And it was an individuals choice to participate or not, and if you didn't participate, you had no right to moan about outcomes.

Now...

"Let me say right now that I accept the Corsairs' right to Theta and Omega-41. To think
that these systems, which are a mere jump away from your Empires heart, not to be a part of
Corsair space is illogical."

"Because our laws restrict access in our space for Gunships and larger combat vessels we will need a complete list of the large Zoners ships that will be used for defending the Zoner bases in our space in order to grant them unrestricted access in Omega 41 and Omicron Theta."

TAZ are happy to evict zoners, and restrict there access to there own stations from what I see. And Im almost certain, If it were there sector they wouldn't just hand it over.

"Were so convinced that we can't win if we fight, that we don't even try."

Um In order for us to win, Corsairs would have to lose, Im pretty sure if we got 100 zoners and allies, and invaded all there systems at once, continuously taking shifts for 2 week's without a Break, shooting anything and everything that moves, including food transports. the corsairs would still be winning.

Some reasons they would still be winning might be something like this.

You fool's you think we would starve, We only say that so people bring us more food, so we can keep a stock, We have enough food to feed out empire through a 100 year war.

Don't make me laugh zoner, Those weren't ships, we used a new catapult we just made to launch low cost pretend ships into space for you to waste your weapons on, Looks like we were right about how gullible you really are.

I think the BH's should go claim theta, or some other Corsair hostile group, If Corsairs can claim it, so can anyone else. Then BH's can demand zoners open there bases for the owners of the system, or them be scuttled. Maybe BH on one side and Hessians on the other.

EDIT:

Sorry Corsairs, Forgot since its someone imposing on your game play its oorp for such things to happen. Only your allowed to do such things.
