- Start date
We should tell them they will have to come up with a better deal than that since there are 3 who know masonry and we are working on a better deal for it. CB or something since that's one of the techs MIA is considering trading with them for maths. Then we can consider trading myst for maths at a fair price if they'll research poly (for their warring nature towards monarchy) for us.
I'd like someone to start a dialogue.....just for fun.

I find it interesting that "a certain element" has been silent for quite awhile. Do you suppose they've been working on a tech called "muzzling"?

Are they really wanting to get Writing & gold from us for Masonry? I think that WC & CB are more fitting. That is a more equitable trade. The turn is in and I'd like to play it if I could. Does the WC & CB sound ok for Masonry (which we are already supposed to have from MIA 
) ?
) ?

So just clear the table and give them the silent treatment like they gave us? That's what I prefer to do

Hey, just to let you guys know, TNT isn't silent anymore...
Here is my recomended response.
Hey there.
We waited and waited to hear from you, but when you din't respond Igor drank the beer we were saving for you and drank it himself and put in his Journey eight-track.
Frankly he is in no condition to bargain right now, and nobody on board wants to wake him.
But don't worry, here is the song playing in his cabin right now
Any way you want it
Thats the way you need it
Any way you want it
She loves to laugh
She loves to sing
She does everything
She loves to move
She loves to grove
She loves the lovin things
Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh, baby, hold tight
Oh, she said,
Any way you want it
Thats the way you need it
Any way you want it
She said, any way you want it
Thats the way you need it
Any way you want it
I was alone
I never knew
What good love could do
Ooh, then we touched
Then we sang
About the lovin things
Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh baby, hold tight
Oh, she said,
Any way you want it
Thats the way you need it
Any way you want it
She said, any way you want it
Thats the way you need it
Any way you want it
So you have that subliminal message going for you when he considers your offer, which is nice.
We'll talk to him when he awakens and get back with you. Don't you worry about it.

Yeah that'll confuse them good.

Oh, I've got plenty.
We could follow up with "Sound of Silence" or, assuming desperation or bluster on their part, my personal favorite from the Godfather of Soul, Mr. James Brown Himself, and I quote....
"Like a dull knife, that just a'int cuttin'
Your talkin' loud, and sayin' nuthin', just sayin' nuthin...'
I say let TNT swing for now, in the meantime, I shall prepare myself...

Hmm, donsig sent that...has he always been in charge of foreign communications? If not, maybe he just recently came into power and that's why this is the first we've heard from them...
If he's not new...Kickbooti's response should work just fine.

If they are working the GLib pre-build it may have gone so far that they need Writing-->Lit not to waste shields. If they don't get it they may have to switch wonder or stall the process which would be fun. My guess is they want writing soon and then will time self research on Lit so to get it when the shields are up for the Jumbo Bookstore. Therefore I say deny them Writing, but we could open up a dialouge for intel. as Whomp suggested. Bootsy's reply is excellent .
It would be nice to have gold enough to investigate a few Persian cities (the mined hill one?) to figure out in which they're pre-building. I think there's a palace build somewhere. When we have GS's enough I would like to attack that one first and just raze it and all it's shields. It would blow up their whole strat.

There's a team who're sure all that glitters is gold
And they're buying a stairway to heaven
When KISS gets there we knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word we can get what we came for
Ooh ooh
And we're buying a stairway to heaven
There's a sign on the wall, but we wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it makes me wonder
There's a feeling we get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who standing looking
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then the idiots will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the Gallic Swordsmen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on
And it makes me wonder,
Oh oh oh
Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know
The idiots are calling you to join them
Dear TNT, can you hear the wind blow and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a team we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all, yeah
To be a rock and not to roll
And they're buying a stairway to heaven
And they're buying a stairway to heaven
When KISS gets there we knows, if the stores are all closed

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind.
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind.
