Empire thread --> The Gerontocracy

from GalCiv2 Forums
The Gerontocracy is here, and the universe will never be the same.

This empire is intended for players over the age of 30, hence the name of the empire. Judging by other threads, that means about 89% of us. For that other 11%, my advice is to hurry up and get older; in the meantime, though, there are plenty of other empires to join, even if they're not nearly as awesome as we are.

awww ... I liked "The Geezer Empire - Pain should be shared!" ... Everyone knows (except those too young to know ... yet) that "Old and devious beats young and strong every time" ...

I'm old (35 is not old) ... and I'm pretty devious. If I could join, if I was accepted, what would we be doing, exactly? I'm still a noob with this whole empire thing.

Great job on getting The Gerontocracy going. I'm of age (35 today in fact), but already in an empire. I just wanted to wish you guys well, as more empires and players mean a better, more active metaverse.

Don't worry, ElWhop0, I'm new to the empire concept myself. I have invited your character "Simian X" to join the empire. If you check your account settings, you should probably see something from me there. Welcome!

Thanks for the support, DethAdder, and happy birthday!

How do I go about adding the Gerontocracy to the AltMeta? Or is this done automatically? Thanks in advance.

Just post your request in the stickied 'AltMeta Help Desk' thread and Kryo should add you.

Welcome to the Metaverse .

Marshall's oldest character, WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot, reporting *gasp* for duty *koff koff* sir! *wheeze* [takes big hit from oxygen cylinder] Hooh! Better!

Hey, I heard that snicker. Let me just tell you, I've been conquering planets since before your game CDs were even pressed! Version 1.0X.2, baby! I know I haven't posted a score in almost a year, but I could anytime. If I wanted.

No, that's not rheumatism, it's a battle scar... What was I talking about? Oh, have you heard about the new buffet they have on Gonadopolis IV? It's so perky...



Spore. When you absolutely, positively got to kill every motherfrakker in the galaxy. Accept no substitutes.

Fantastic! I have sent you an invite, WTF.

Hmm, that sounded much ruder than I intended.

I wanted to let you guys know in case you haven't seen one of the threads it's in that there is a standing offer to host private forums for any GC2 empires at The Galactic Core. They currently host private forums for six empires and have a host of other attractions. Just need an Email addy to register, then PM Drengin and he'll set you up if you'd like.

Good job, ElWhop0! Two submitted games in as many days. We've moved up to 16th place thanks to you. Keep up the good work, sir.

As for myself, I plan on submitting one or two games per week... probably closer to one, realistically, but I'll try to make the points count.

Thank You, Emperor! You made my day.

( "Guess what Susie? The Emperor gave me a kudo!" "Really? ElWhopO, you hunk, c'mere ..." )

Bah, I'm only "emperor" because I was the one who made the empire, heh. We're all equal, as far as I am concerned.

I did however make my alt Incitatus a senator, just like my favourite emperor did.

Having said that, if dropping my name gets you some attention from Susie, by all means do so...

Err, and find out if she has any cute friends. Just sayin'
