In Reply to: SMIRK.....actually...started out as a rebuttal to two of your sentences...then turned rambling. posted by Motiak on August 24, 2000 at 10:18:06:
> > > 1) I didn't delete. > Am I whining...no. > Did I have the rp down...most definately in my opinion(as well as some others) if not with stellar style. > did I/do I know where all the ducky eq/tricks are like aradan did before me...hell no. The roles I have chosen to play didnt lead me in the direction of those who could explore enough. And I have never gone out of my way to ask in char for that kind of info (tel-aran etc). > But the fact that for some reason I wasnt worthy isnt my point. I can live with it. even if I wish I was told why so I can grow as an rp-er. > My point is this. > That council/empire at that time had an Emperor candidate that had enough gumption and following to at least coerce those who didn't want him to SAY they wanted him. And if Motiak was chosen emperor, he would have had a full council of people who actually showed up. Thus it was NOT the council's fault that the empire didn't grow instead of fall into nothing like it did. > It was mine alone. > I am thinking that if I was a bit more worthy..a bit more ducky if you will, that Zulg would not have gone out of his way to disapear right before that council meeting, and I could have gotten emperor... > And everyone knows that with an emperor and council, all the cabal hoppers (who are now playing ragers) would roll empires. > Not sure where I was going with that....I was going somewhere or I wouldnt have gone this long...but I have no idea. >
> > Got tired again, Lets try to put all the sect leaders to see if all four can handle the empire. Nope they couldnt, they all deleted. besides making warr on each other.
> Now, I KINDOF agreed with most of what you said...accept the last two sentences in the paragraph above.
> 2) only one who wanted to make it physical was shimae...and she deleted first
> 3) The council is supposed to be at each other's throats...that is what we were.
> 4) we were doing VERY well when I lost my comp and connection..thus losing Motiak.
> 5) I had set up a council meeting, a week in advance. Zulg was vis up until 2 mins before the meeting. The meeting happened, 3 people from every sect, including those who would become sect leaders later (I had promised them the spot for the support) PLUS all but 2 of the 12 empires on at the time hailed me emperor. Guess I wasn't worthy...even tho pretty much the whole empire hailed me as emperor and I claimed the throne...When Zulg stayed either wizi...or had obviously chosen to leave 2 mins before the council meeting, was when I started loosing interest in Empire.
