Well with a couple of teams releasing a newspaper, i think TNT should do something also, i dont believe we should go the same route as a newspaper as its been done before.

I'd be quite willing to work on it however would need an idea.
 
I think a newspaper would be good. (Not sure what else we could do along those lines.) We could play up the story of our conversion from polytheism to monotheism. We renounce the god of war and his cronies in favor of the one true supreme being. If the war continues it could become a crusade against the heathen Iroqi. We could do something about the Iroqi women, too. Since I plan to use them as bait we could have a story about how they came to be with us and their fate. Will the Iroqi take them back when given the chance or will they ignore them in order to pillage and rape Ironic women? Then there's Mausollos. We need something *proving* he existed or a story about what is really in his mausoleum. (We could make something good up.) Have to include something about goats, too.

Could be alot of fun for all. :) (I mean the newspaper could be fun - not the goats. :D )

I dont mind doing a paper however will merely look like we are copying the other 2 teams, how about as we are soon going to be closing in on Theocracy a 'bible' or something of the sorts, Showing stories of the past, could also prove the existance of Mausollos and could also give predictions for the future i.e. the destruction of iroqi, updates could occur in the form of lost scriptures.

sounds like a good idea. and maybe we could lure people from our team to be more active, by making them prophets in this "bible". kind of a participation incentive. we could make it a system:

1 post per day in team forum: minor prophet who is mentioned once or twice in a 'scripture'

2 posts per day in team forum: medium level prophet, indirectly affects events in game

3 posts per day in team forum: highg level prophet, directly affects events in game (like war hero, MGL, elite unit, famous politician, etc.)

0 posts per day in team forum for a week: fallen from grace, die in 'scripture'

...just a rough sketch, but you get the idea. :)
 
So what does that make you me and donsig, Demi-Gods?

How about The mausoleum of Mausolles is the tomb of the Son of Meleet, shows our connection with the higher power, just where should be the old testament and old testament???

yeah, the 3 of us will be the 3 Kings of the Ironic and Iroqi People. :cool: we could make it that the Son of Meelet had divine powers, and gave those powers to the 3 of us (you, me, and donsig (the III)) before he died. he also made a prediction, that one day, the 3 kings of the Ironic and Iroqi people will walk through the gates of Springfield and triumph over the Iroqi. so, what'cha guys think of this idea for a 'Scripture'?
 
'And the son of Meelet walked among the Ironic people for they were his first and his favourites, He was worshipped almost as highly as Meelet and was called Mausolles. He granted the powers of wisdom, judgement and hope to BCLG100, Greekguy and Donsig, these three were elevated to kings of the Ironic people and later lords of the Iroqi lands. For his gifts the Kings built Mausolles the grandest tomb that anyone has ever had or will have following his death. Meelet in thanks for his sons resting place granted every city of the ironic civilization a temple.'

'In the months following the death of Mausolles greekguy was to find the 10 principles by which the ironic people should live their life and also set out the next 3 millenia of ironic history.'
 
Well thats all ive got so far, ive included the 10 principles and the predictions thing as they could be included in further stories.
 
nice job BCLG!! i don't have time today to make a story or anything, but i'll try to get one done in the next day or so. (seeing as i now have to write our 10 principles ;)) once i finish, i'll work donsig into the story further, and once he does one, we could then post the "Scriptures" in the public forum. sound good?
 
We should include Provolution in there somewhere. He hasn't done much posting yet but he was the driving force of the Ironic People for quite a while. Can we insert him somewhere between Mausollos and the three kings?

Yep k how about it is Provolution that recieves the 10 scriptures, the 3 ifts i also included from mausolles can be worked into a story as to which one of us 3 recieves each gift.

I'll also write a creation for the eather, something along the lines of the 7 days from the bible then
on the 8th day created the ironic people with their-short description
the 9th day he created the greeks- praising them short description
10th day-created celts indifferent short descritption
11th day took another break
12th day had nothing better to do so created the iroqi-negative description, ill writ em up tomorrow when i have more time.
 
Too bad we didn't think of this before Christmas. We could have done a 12 days of Christmas creation thing. Let's call them Galls instead of Celts in our bible. Let's not insult them too much but let's nat flatter them either.

K about the name and that was my intention :) ill write that up shortly but have now got to catch up with 6 months of physics homework that i havnt done :cry:
 
here's my addition to our "Scriptures". i decided not to write about the 10 principles directly (i could do that some other time), but about what happened after i wrote the principles. i also worked in Provo, and left it open for donsig to write the next chapter. i think we should organize what we end up with in a few days, and put it in chronological order, and then post it in the public forum.

'And it came to be that the 10 principles that were written by the Great Lord greekguy were brought before the shrine of the first great Ironic Lord, Provolution, in the city bearing his name, Provobomb. There the spirit of Provolution spoke to greekguy of what was to come in the centuries to follow. He spoke of heavily armed beast riders being recruited throughout the land, and trodding through the Sacred Jungle. He spoke of the scientific genius of the people of Iron, and how we would share the crown of the world's most intelligent with the brillant Greeks. And lastly, he spoke of the return of himself, the Great Lorde Provolution. He would return when the people of Iron needed him most, and he would help rid the world of our greatest foe...and then, so suddenly, Provolution's spirit was at rest once more and spoke not another word. And after this amazing event occured, yet another incredible breakthrough was accomplished, between the Iroqi and Ironic people. An astounding treaty was struck, which was led by the efforts of Grand Vizeer of the Iroqi and Ironic People, the Ironic Great Lord Donsig...'
 
And lo, the Spirit of Provolution appeared to donsig and said, "Thou shalt build a road through the Sacred Jungle. Though shalt make the road flat and smooth. Three shall be the width of the road in cubits, and the number of the cubits shall be three. Four cubits shalt thou not make it, neither makest thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Then thou shalt march thy armies, two by two, through the Sacred Jungle unto the lands of Iroq."

And it came to pass during the building of the Sacred Road through the Sacred Jungle that donsig climbed Mount Carbonperoxides. He came upon a burning bush and knelt before it saying, "O Meleet, bless this thy sacred road, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And Meleet did grin. donsig descended the mount and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths, and carp and anchovies, and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit-bats.

That's about all I have time for know. If anyone has an inspiration for what happens after Mount Carbonperoxides feel free to write the next bit!
 
Ok well i shall write the begginning shortly and then once that is done i can publish the bible on the main forum bit.
 
BCGL, do you want to post what we have of our 'Bible' in the public forum now, or should you write the Creation story and post it in the public forum later? could you make a decision soon, also, 'cause i think we should get this in the public forum to stir things up. :)
 
Think we should wait for me to finish writing the creation part, then il have to format the text alltogether so it looks like bible pags or something, not quite sure how i can do that any ideas anyone???

also should we wait until we have found out theocracy or just post it straight away?
