The last two Times have had postings from myself and the House of
Lords concerning recent events along the Provinian Eastern shores.
It started because I felt a "bloodless" object lesson was necessary.


The object of this lesson:  Aside from TIBs holdings, nearly the rest
of Provinia is in one war or another.  If you are traveling in areas
on Southern, Western, or Eastern Provinia it is reccomended that you
make both sides of the conflict aware of you and your nuetral status.
Accidents happen, such as the attack on Glyn Dwr [6456] and Eoghan [9819]
in Boden City on turn 102.  They had been scouting Inner City coastal
regions earlier, and then sailed straight into a battlezone concurrently
with a couple of Lords of the Crown ships.  That coincidence was fatal
for them.


By no means do I wish to discourage those who wish to explore the world
of Olympia.  Understand that there are those of us who archive turns and
use "Find text" commands to review history of those we encounter.
Making sure your Explorers don't get on someone's "potential enemy" list
is, in reality, your own responsibility.


I wish to thank the House of Lords for their participation in this
"Olympian Morality Play".  I did not get prior approval from the HOL
to include them in it.  I apologize if as a result of this, anyone
believes that there is any other "oneness" between they and the Lords
of the Crown than the inclusion of the word "Lords" in the name of
their alliances.  I stand convinced of the nuetrality of the House of
Lords.  They have never demonstrated anything else.

Greetings Fellow Olympians

I was surfing the G-2 list "altough just the thought of the flame wars
I might encounter there sends chills down my spine". When I found the
below message posted by some guy called Mordekai. It was ao funny I
fell on the floor dying of laughter. I guess it's because the funniest
things are usally true. I thought you all might get a laugh out of it
too.

Maybe we could have a special list for flames. We could call it the
Lords list.

Or maybe we could set up a chat room and have special flaming
sessions live once a week. We could have special events like

Oleg vs Capricorn - Why you shouldn't get your NP's back

Oleg vs Dragon Lord - How to turn any thread into a flame war

Silas vs Lord Foul - To backstab or not to backstab

Dragon Lord vs Greg - Bug or Feature??

ICLF and Mordekai - Guerrila tactics for the militarily challenged

BoRG vs Lords - Who has sunk the most ships and do ones on the beach
count

Seehawk vs Everyone - Taking the High Moral Ground for beginners

Cendage vs anybody - How to stick your nose into something that is none
of your bussines and keep the thread going for another week
(Special guest appearance by Seehawk)
