NiNES: A Broken Galaxy

My only excuse is that a power outage was happening while I had planned to send orders before school today. :( Very quick orders incoming now.

Don't worry, I've done nothing updateworthy.
 
The dangers of living in the far north... :rolleyes: Don't rush it Iggy, take your time and get me the orders before tomorrow morning and it'll be fine. Now, if only those Furians could get some orders in too... :p
 
Damnit, Fury forgot again?!? I'll never get that tech trade done. :p

Slightly rushed orders sent a few minutes ago. Story coming too. After my writing homework.

The IGG council has voted that Sol, mother system of humanity, will be the site of the First Interstellar Galactic Games, and thanks the USC for it’s generous offer. The council also requests to know whether or not Sol will have it’s own teams apart from the USC, so that it may plan accordingly.

An extended list of games for the first IGG has been compiled, and proceeds as follows:

Team Sports:
Gyro-Hockey
Hide and Pounce
Tennis
Furian Football
Baseball
Basketball
Football (European)

The IGGC has considered the offer of War Games as an event. However, due to it’s controversial nature, it has been proposed that the participating nations in the IGG voice their opinions on the matter.

Individual Sports:
Kalian Dueling
Solar Yachting
Uberathalon
Biathlon
Track and Field
Cross-Country Skiing
Freestyle Snowboarding
Ice Skating
Starcraft ( ;) )

If a faction would like to enter another event for consideration, it must do so before the opening ceremonies begin. Furthermore, the IGGC requests that all participating nations specify the events in which they will be participating. As few as one or as many as all events may be entered by any faction. Currently, the following nations have agreed to (or appear to have agreed to) participate in the games:

Norsk Automated Mining Cluster Gymir-Rho
Confederation of Kalia
The Nekomi
Democratic Autarchy of Huris
The Furians
The Emergents of Providence(?)
United Systems Commonwealth

The IGGC would like to know the stances of the Cybran Dominion, Colonial Federation of Sezuren, Magistracy of Capella, Ascendancy of Imperial Guangdong, and Sword of Wrath on participation in the games on any level.

(OOC: Even insular factions can have at least one or two individuals so bold as to participate in the games?)

Opening Ceremonies will begin once all details and logistics are resolved.
 
Sorry I know one of the orders that is not there is mine, My firm just landed a huge case and we have been swamped trying to prepare for court.

If you will still accept my orders I will send them now.

And DAH I remembered our trade agreement this time. ;)
 
OOC: Been a little bit delayed, but they'll be in within an hour and a half for sure. Sorry for the hold-up.
 
TO: I.G.C.
CC: Wideband
FROM: U.S.C.


The entry of Sol as a seperate competitor will be at the discression of the inhabitants of Earth. If they so desire, we will do what is necessary to assist them in fielding their own team. We thank the I.G.C. for its selections and hope it and fellow competitors will enjoy their stay on Earth.

From Cybrans


We will enter only if a version of Megadeath Arena is allowed. The other games are simply too pansie like.

Football (European)

Individual Sports:

We will enter only if a version of Megadeath Arena is allowed. The other games are simply too pansie like.

You dare insult the Furians? Furian football is one of the bloodiest sports in the Universe. Just last year the Furian League counted 5 players who died during the games.
 
To Furians
From Cybrans

On average 28 people die in one show of Megadeath Arena.
 
The Emergents snidely suggest that holographic simulations be used, so that each team may meet projections of the other teams, which will appear to die realistically, but without harm to humans.
 
OOC:

In later games, every participating nation will get a seat on the IGGC. However, for simplicity's sake I'll run it this time around. Hopefully there won't be much bias ;)

Megadeath Arena is confirmed as a sport, as well as War Games.

We'll start up opening ceremonies once we find out if Sol and the other factions that haven't responsed yet are interested*coughBananaLeecough*. In fact, would or Symphony like to do the honors, since Sol is hosting? I'll let you know when we're ready if you'd like to.

Colonials are in. So that leaves alex, MadDog, the Bananaman, and i'm still not sure as to Erik's stance, he's never officialy stated anything.

but if he doesn't respond by the time I feel like launching the games, I'll assume he's in, and I'll also assume his teams are all pathetic ;)

now time to write a story :)
 
We will participate in the War Games. :goodjob:
Also we will join Megadeath Arena.
 
We're keen on the Games. It's just that Pokeahotass was busy communicating with this weird world they call Real Life. :)
 
Emergents are in. BREAKING FEVER HEADACHE

Also, some sort of flying as a sport? Hang-gliding?
 
solar yachting is a flying/space travel sport...or do you have something else in mind?

alex and MadDog left to comment

oh I know about the horrors of RL, I just like to give everyone a hard time ;)
 
OOC: Don't expect a reply from me unless you've met my previous criteria. At this time, that means I'm only in formal contact with Lord Iggy.
 
OOC:

If Iggy decided to give your contact to the Emergents, then everybody has it now. Idk...Iggy, have you given anyone contact with Wrath?

If not, then the games will go on, sorry you'll miss out :(


EDIT: Unless...Iggy would like to forward my messages concerning the games to Wrath?
 
Wrath seems to be an extremely hostile faction, and we'd assume that they wouldn't like being around others and wouldn't be a positive addition to the Games, or the Galactic Community in General. Wrath can feel free to defend itself against this claim, but its actions seem to be those of a xenophobic and paranoid nation.

The Democratic Autarchy of Huris sends its thoughts and plans for the upcoming Games

Gyro-Hockey: We have a version of the game similar to this, played on ice or on a high-traction solid with rollers. We shall send an All-Star team from the cream of our local leagues. (OOC: Is Gyro Hockey like that computer game? Can't recall the name)
Hide and Pounce: We have never played this game, but will train and send a team.
Tennis: We have a similar game called judapom, and will send at least one team. How many may we send?
Furian Football: As with Hide and Pounce, we do not practice this sport, but will still train and send a team.
Baseball: See Hockey
Basketball: See Baseball and Hockey
Football: See Basketball, Baseball and Hockey
War Games: We inquire as to the nature of these games. Are they typically fatal? Assumptions are now that they are nonlethal combat simulations.
Megadeath Arena: We will send a team, should we find people willing to go.
Kalian Dueling: What are the details of Kalian Dueling? What weapons are used, and is the sport typically fatal or injurious?
Solar Yachting: We shall send our best. How many are permitted on the team?
Uberathalon: The DAH will send its fittest athletes to this event.
Biathlon: We'll send the best of our competition circuit to participate in this event.
Track and Field: Naturally, we will send a full contingent for these events.
Cross-Country Skiing: See Biathlon.
Freestyle Snowboarding: We'll send a team.
Ice Skating: Is this race-skating or artistic skating? We will send athletes for both.

The DAH has two questions to raise:
1. Genetic or cybernetic enhancements may create unfair advantages for some teams. What is to be done of this?
2. Should we set a bar for talent, or should this first games be more open, so we can figure out what to do from then?
