Official Lunatic Asylum announcement Part 2
 
hihi

After 1 day i guess its time to call the bluff.. didnt really think SO many would fall for it :) Anyways it has been fun... ALOT of fun.. And i feel we managed to make one of the biggest pranks in a while. Some of the "HC" didnt think we could manage to pull off a bluff like this.. But seems we did quite well :) Lunatic Asylum is NOT an alliance :P just a big bluff to see if we could fool a community thinking the unlikely :) Just a few of u called the bluff quite fast tho.. hehe.. when u think about it it was a very unlikely setup and concidering most of the HC has said on beforehand they wouldnt HC in a while or even play in a while :P


been fun hehe and happy new year :)

On behalf of the "LA command"

My first post on the subject was serious.

The other posts I knew what was going on due to having to tell me as alliances had made agreements to hit LA.

I'm not sure it was the best of jokes, or the most worthwhile. Given that there was no real reason to dispute it I'm still pretty unsure as to why its such a big deal.

heh, funny! I thought something was going on when Mac was playing - I even pasted lgos of him saying that he's never going to play PA again, let alone HC. the HC setup was also a little weird, but I was fooled :)

I've seen bigger jokes enter planetarion, and actually play the round aswell.

I wasn't fooled, but probably cause I didn't see it until just now!

Nice to see that it got a rise out of Forest though. Seems he still has eX up his ass to keep him good and uptight.

The fact that the entire universe already planned to hit LA from tick 73 shows that they indeed ARE scary :D

no no, that just shows why eXi arent playing this round. Because they'd be hit from pt 72.

Re: Official Lunatic Asylum announcement Part 2
 
On the bright side I now have officially the most rejected applications for eXillition AND L.A. At least I managed to salvage something out of this :)

And tbh I've made better jokes. Like when I did an interview for one of my pia alliances using my Automated Ally Recruitment Bot... or when I created an alliance and NAP'd the whole universe. Or when I drove Minty mad by asking for a scan but telling him I couldn't tell him the coords as they were top secret. Or when I convinced Kargool I was an immigrant using PA to try and learn English. Then that was the time I convinced a noob to apply for moderatorship as it was a 'well-paid position'.

This was lame in comparisson tbh :| "We're recruiting! Oh wait, no we dont exist!!"

Next! :P

Or maybe he is pissed that we didn't "accept him" pre-round 18 or was it 19?

Or when you were very sure PIA mods were abusing their powers.

Oh how good you are. Not that I have anything to do with it since I hardly even play anymore. But I really find you funny and shit.

I beleive you made this exact same claim post-r18 about why eXilition wouldn't play round 19. I think we've had this dicussion several times before, and you constantly claim eX aren't playing this round or that round because of reason A and reason B etc. That's about as logically flawed as claiming 1up quit PA because they couldn't handle the losing rounds. It's simply not true.

eXilition not playing any given round ***HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE POLITICAL SITUATION IN EACH ROUND.*** If you think the eX command are/have been "scared off" from playing Planetarion during certain rounds, you're even dumber than your post I quoted. *NEVER* has eXilition been scared off by the prospsect of rule changes, certain alliances playing or not playing the round, being attacked during a round, or any other factor. Decisions to play or not play a round are based on "time off" to relax and spend some time in the real world, mainly for the command team. The command team doesn't have the time or want to put in the effort to play every round of planetarion one after another. In fact, the notion of playing round after round without a break to me seems archaic--a relic of pre-PAX tradition based on enormous alliance membercounts and the ability for alliances to delegate the same workload (or smaller workload per member, based on a larger universe) to a larger number of willing officers within an alliance structure. But that's a different story.

Let me put it bluntly for you: I don't forsee eX coming back, ever to planetarion. Kaifux doesn't forsee it either. bwtmc doesn't either. Hude doesn't either. I'm not sure about snra/mac/cart. But that's a large chunk of the command. eX not playing had nothing to do with circumstances of round 20. Every round eX has played thus far (besides mabye initially in round 13) has initally placed eX as the "bad guys" (weather due to lies about mass-cheating, or not being the "underdog"), has had an equal potential for success/loss--but the key to winning the round is using what you have at your disposal as efficiently as possible. In the end, alliance rankings are all about strategy--not the percise calculation based style of gameplay that indvidual-planet Planetarion has decayed into--but rather a metagame which is the key factor in drawing and keeping players in the game--where your strategy is 50% based upon group interaction within the alliance, and the efficiency of that interaction, and the other 50% based upon meta-game political and non-political interaction (which isn't as predictable as the raw numbers).

I believe there's an actual graph out there which correlates people reading that post and people's respect towards you dropping off with a "virtual cliff" effect. Word to the wise folks, listing your achievements in life is neither big nor clever. And trust me I'd know I went to oxford and graduated first in my class and work for an agency for people so smart their heads are in constant danger of exploding.
