Hegemony Argument Thread

[Nexaduro]

NO FLOOD. FLOOD BAD. ME SPARTAN LAZOR FLOOD.

 

As if the "Needlers" didn't make it obvious enough, Ross.

[The_Mather1]

We can have the Dusty/Mather approach and create a game that they dominate because they have no intention of playing fairly, they are just doing whatever takes their fancy at the time.

Believe me, if I did what I fancied then you would notice... and pay dearly. What I have strived for in all games so far (except 2025 and the brawl games) is technological advancement in an attempt to give me the upperhand in case of an attack, though only about 10% of my technologies have been allowed/given any noticable effect and only about 20% were banned before the research was completed.

See: Arch destroying V3 because he got mad at Retech

See: Archi's responce to claims that he destroyed Hegemony because he was mad at Retech, including the 2 page conversation between himself and Retech in which he warned Retech that his attack would destroy the game and stopped the attack happening three times before finally running out of ways round it.

 

'I'm the moderator so I get invincible ships and my people are untouchable, and since I'm the war mod all your attacks fail miserably and I kill your entire invasion force by throwing out a banana peal that they slip and fall and die on".

My thoughts exactly. If this game does spring up, I'll just ignore all the build points and tech research costs and resource numbers and do whatever I think is reasonable.

 

Oddly enough when I do that its called God Mode...When you do it its called being Reasonable...

A tremendously even handed approach to game play.

Yeah, your argument was that two people weren't posting every day, so you were justified in destroying the game. :rolleyes:

And a 2 page conversation trying to convince Retech...

You were the bloody moderator.

Because you do god mod? Not really my fault that I have the capacity to build 30,000 battleships a year, especially since I'm basing it off the production model that everyone agreed on.

 

Btw, this is essentially me and Arch:

 

Which one is who is irrelevant, since both believe themselves to be right. But one is saying 'I don't want the other to be born because he won't agree with me on everything' ZZZZ

 

Btw:

Hilarious (and not in any way related to anything above)

You were the bloody moderator.

 

You can't win against Dusty...Your damned if you do and your damned if you don't.

 

Oh, and Doom agreed with the production system, most everyone else thought it wasn't good and started using a different system....and since then we have discussed a method of making it better so everyone agrees which you said you were going to ignore...so...

[The_Mather1]

I used the production system, I even made an excell sheet (no surprise there) where I set the ammount of points each ship cost, the amount of production satelites I had and when I started making them, then I timed/divided them with eachother times the start date/current date * 0.90.

[Nero]

Dusty, you're an [wagon], we all hate you, etc. Don't [bleep]ing play if you're going to be such an [wagon].

 

Also, I'm not playing any game with any sort of tech tree. I think we should all start out with relatively high populations and control over two planets of our choice so that there isn't a boring start up period.

So, in one sentence you insult me, then in the other you just regurgitate exactly what I said previously? Lol.

 

You can't win against Dusty...Your damned if you do and your damned if you don't.

I am a bit flabbergasted that you spent so much time trying to convince Retech not to do it, when you were the moderator and your job was to say 'No, you can't do that because it would break the game'. Instead you let him (hell, you expanded it 1000x, just to be a [bleep]) and then said, "well, I tried to warn you guys derp de derp".

 

Oh, and Doom agreed with the production system, most everyone else thought it wasn't good and started using a different system....and since then we have discussed a method of making it better so everyone agrees which you said you were going to ignore...so...

Everyone was using the system. You got mad because I had more production capacity then anyone else, because I had conquer/colonized more planets and had a larger population. Waaah.

 

Btw, just to remind everyone. This game fails hardcore when there's no player vs player conflict, as NPC 'enemies' are just brushed aside and then everyone goes back to creating their perfect little utopia and eventually gets bored and leaves.

[Retech]

Rocco, I think a slower start up period would be good, because then we can all get into our niches like, "Oh, Ross is the guy with the radioactive planet and crazy robot beings." so that we don't start going at each other's throats until there's a reason to do so.

 

The best conflicts are when the players create it themselves. Like the armageddon conflict of the last Hegemony would've been, if we didn't have super weapons.

[archimage_a]

Then how come Rocco, Retech and I didn't know what it was and only Doom was capable of explaining it, at which point everyone disagreed and produced their own version.

Furthermore I was more concerned about not being instantly killed by Grim(Or the thread exploding from Hex) than worried about the Terran Federation and being the best.

[Retech]

On a totally unrelated note, I am the highest scoring 8th grader in New York State, on the American Math Competition 10th grade. :P

 

 

 

Or at least, I think so.

[archimage_a]

Indeed. :thumbup:

[Retech]

Thanks. :)

 

 

Does anyone know when this pokemon thing will end? The yellow hurts my eyes a bunch.

[archimage_a]

Soon, hopefully. I can't believe the moderators got nothing out of it... <_<

:rolleyes:

[Seraphi]

Hey Rocco, I think the tech tree is supposed to be a starting point for you to discuss and create your stuff with the moderators.

You guys had a 10 page long discussion on it or something. I just went with whatever the majority was doing at the time, which was that production counter thingy.

[Retech]

Well now that the meaningful discussion is basically over, can someone post something with all the stuff we've discussed (basically like an opening post) so we can hammer it out and start on Saturday?

[The_Mather1]

Thanks. :)

I don't have one of those accent marks on my keyboard. :P

[The_Mather1]

You should have, those are among the three most common ( `, ´ & ^ ), at Norwegian keyboards it's at the `,\,´ key, next to backspace (bellow num lock at laptops).

[Nero]

Thanks. :)
