Add spying and tech steels to clarify the tech agreements.

 

[Daghdha]

I have made some changes in dlbuncho´#'s revision of the Simpson's Protocol. Take a look, have a say.
Edit: Some things have been deleted, some added. The additions are underlined for clarity and Tubby

Spoiler :

Extension of the Simpson Protocol

Within this treaty teams KISS and Doughnuts will be known as The Quick, while team MIA will be known as The Dead

Land Division

Draw a line from Dynopolis to the coast on a NW axis thru Dancing Banana and also SE axis to the coast.

Military

-Peaceful relations are guaranteed between The Quick for the duration of this agreement.

-During the period of of this treaty both parties would have a Right of Passage through the others territory. Any movement through each other's territory will be announced, including force composition, proposed path and ultimate destination. The Quick must seek permission to enter each others land borders. Sea borders can be entered without permission, however naval units must continue their movement with each turn unless permission is requested and received.

-Cooperation in the gathering of intelligence


Technology and Trading

-Cooperation in the advancement of technological research. By researching different technologies at the same time we can double the efficiency of our research.

-Trade in luxuries and resources can be negotiated on an individual basis.

-Technologies that are researched during this period may not be made available to MIA.

-Luxuries and rescourses may not be traded with MIA.

-Spying missions and tech stealing aimed at MIA should be done in a cooperative manner. So that costs and benefits are shared by The Quick.

-Neither of The Quick may enter an agreement with The Dead that would adversely effect any of the conditions of this agreement.

-Technologies will be researched as such to maintain an equality of trade value based on the agreement as follows:

Code:
Doughnut KISS
Nat SP
Med Ele
Ind RP
Cor SM
Ref AT
St Ele
Com

Total for both teams 21600 beakers
The last 3 techs Fli, MP and MT can also be jointly researched however they will be determined at a later date, likewise any non required techs up to this point can also be discussed.

Termination of the treaty

-The elemination of MIA, i.e. until the last Greek city has fallen.

-Any amendments to the treaty must be agreed to by both parties for it to take effect.

-If one of The Quick feels wronged by the other in reference to this agreement, and the wrong doing is confirmed by administrators, they are free to declare a one-sided termination of the agreement. This can apply to various parts, or the whole agreement.

 

[Tubby Rower]

it would be nice to highlight the changes Daggie so that we don't have to easter egg hunt for them

 

[Kickbooti]

I think the trade/lux embargo is a good addition. It will ensure a dogpile against MIA, or it the Nuts balk we will know the measure of their commitment.

 

[Tubby Rower]

thanks Daggie. I agree with your changes

 

[Whomp]

I agree with the changes and suggest we send them on with our Cow pirate sticker attached

 

[Tubby Rower]

Does anyone else know how to do it? If I do it, it won't be very pretty this time as I have to get some work done today.

How come were called 'the quick' out of interest?

 

[CommandoBob]

How come were called 'the quick' out of interest?

The full phrase is 'The Quick and the Dead', (also a movie starring Gene Hackman, Sharon Stone, Russell Crowe and Leonardo DeCaprio) and we are not the Dead.

According to one web site:

The earliest meaning of the word “quick” in English is “alive.” When a baby was first felt to move in its mother’s womb it was considered to have come to life, and this moment was called “quickening.” This original meaning of the word “quick” has now died out except in the phrase “the quick and the dead,” kept alive by the King James translation of Acts 10:42, which speaks of Jesus as judge “of quick and dead,” but even more by the continued recitation of the Apostles’ Creed, which says of Jesus that “he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.”

People who use this phrase to imply that speed is involved—liveliness rather than aliveness—sometimes get credit for creating a clever pun but more often come off as ignorant.

Hope this helps.

 

[Whomp]

The quick also means the fast footed units. Mounted Warriors and Gallic Swords.
The Dead means the slow footed ones. Immortals and Hoplites.


Before the Donut agreement and during the ancient times we were on the Green continent (MIA and KISS) and Battle island (TNT and Donut) was the other continent.

 

[BCLG100]

ok explains all that then, thanks yous 2

and yes, I did send the PM to Fe. I'm igor-ant!

 

[Daghdha]

I still don't have online access at home. Could some other shmuck deliver the message to the Bakery?

 

[Whomp]

I'm not capable from work. Can someone fix it up nice and send it or I'll send with the needed niceities.

 

[Tubby Rower]

Here is an ok version of it. I don't have the time to put it all on scrolls. That takes forever and it's kind of annoying since MIA started that crap.

just needs Homer's symbol on the bottom. I left the underlines since it has the latest changes.

 

[Whomp]
