Gael Force

SHADOW

Rite heres the thing

An Alliance is a good idea imho, even if it is between ppl who are in different galaxies, be it called Gael Force or The Fortress or whatever the other suggestions were.

I think it would be a good idea tho to have a council instead of 1 leader who decide things and rally everyone where needed.

Also there should be a site put up in a hurry, A logo and an Alliance tag that every1 in the alliance specifies.

whatayis think?

Snaga

Sounds good.
So how about a vote then for the name?

Post here for either

'Gael Force' or 'The Fortress'

And I fully agree with the council idea. We havent even got a leader yet, Im just the loudest mouth

Id like to be on the council though.

How about "Team Discovery Channel" ?

OK one thing.

For an alliance to do well, you need a few things... primary of which is a mailing list. P requires fast reactions from your allies in offensive or defensive moves, so email lists are ESSENTIAL. If anyone is gonna bl33t about getting a lot of mail, then they shouldn't be in the alliance.

Can we just get a ****ing Online Gaming board and be done with these god damn Panetarion threads?

So the pope puts down the Badger and leans over to me and says , 'At TFC my son , I 0wnz j00'. Before I could speak in walks Dustin Hoffman in a giant Silk Worm costume and just then...it started to get weird...

TwoShedsJackson

Games, online games, yeah i can see how that would be confusing...

let me suggest this - don't read any more Planetarion threads in the interests of your blood pressure.

I'm all for Gael Force and the emailing list and we should get an irc channel as well. I don't mind about the council but I don't want the job, no time but I will give me support to it.

Illkillya

i don't know too much about PA, but i'm nearly always online and i don't object to a lot of emails, so i'd like to be part of any alliance made here - and i'll be a real Half-life player in about 8minutes
And i also have low co-ordinates, 10:XX:XX
Gael Force is a bit corny i think, but The Fortress sounds good.

Shiminay

Well, until we decide, I'm setting my Tag to GF and when we do decide, tell me and I'll change it if necessary.

As for mailing lists, I don't mind being on one for the right reasons.

OK there is a mailing list set up:

Its GF@newauthorsonline.com

So far recipients are:

Me
Kharn
Snaga
Illkillya
Monty

These are only the first bunch.
If you are interested in joining post your email addy here.
btw for the ppl on the above list I've used your profile address. If its not right let me know.

SHADOW

Actually a couple of changes in plan..
There is a mailing list but its:
GaelForce@newauthorsonline.com

To subscribe to the mailinglist, simply send a message with the word 'subscribe' in the Subject: field to the -request address of that list

To: GaelForce-request@newauthorsonline.com
Subject: subscribe

Ye get the idea...
Snaga, Monty, Kharn and Illkillya aswell as myself are all subscribed.

What kinda time-commitment does Planetarion take - I've got about a minute a day to spare

Snaga

They recommend logging in twice a day.

The quickest someone can attack you with a sizable force is 7-8 hours, it takes 2 hours to get help from a fellow galaxy person, so during a major war you should check every 6 hours or so. Otherwise even once a day or even every 2 days if its quiet enough. TBH though, just do it as often as you can!

Also if your going on holidays or something, there is a 'vacation' which puts your planet on hold and stops you from being attacked.

I'll do a webby - but I wouldn't bother buying a domain just yet Neil!

Mills

I joined up yesterday.

I am inflatible !

SHADOW

ok well Mills I've signed you up again..
There was sum problem with the way the mailing list was configured in the back office.....I fuct up a bit

So if any1 else has signed up thru that auto subscribe just leave yisser addys here and I'll put you back on again..

N

Blitzkrieger

you can get free .com .org and .net addresses off some crowd - I have the addy at home. They offer free webspace and email addresses too.

Not sure what the catch is. They certainly get advertising on your site - maybe they retain ownership of the domain name too.

SHADOW

Ok so the tag is [GF]
I will buy a domain name if sum1 else is prepared to do a web site cause I dont have the time
both gaelforce and thefortress .com, net and org aren't available.

Suggestions?

[GF]N

SHADOW

What about this..

Everyone can join Gael Force then in about a week everyone who has joined will be able to vote for a council of 5 people.

It will be the councils job to make decisions, From who is let into the alliance to the mission statement kind of thing!

That mailing list that I put up is now out of order by choice
BUT
the email address is still running
SO
If you want to join then post your e-mail address here.

Monty - the one and only

I noticed one or two posts on the PA boards looking for irish alliances, Ive forwarded them here


Monty

Lord Khan

well I was looking forward until I saw newauthoronline as the list

list and IRC channel tend to make each other redundant

least nobody voted for "the fortress"

Kharn if he wants to buy a domain that he'll own for the next 2 years let him :-)
just don't forget to tell him ya'll also need a server (virtual or otherwise) 24/7

noticed that everybody wants to be a leader
natural but don't propose your self.

Vote for Gaelic Cluster 8)

btw anybody in 22:12 :-)

SHADOW

well I was looking forward until I saw newauthoronline as the list

This is why I suggested buying a domain name.
However if you have any useful suggestions as to how one can suffix a mail list without buying the domain name with exactly what you want then please let me know.

Kharn if he wants to buy a domain that he'll own for the next 2 years let him :-)

I can read for myself thanx
also
with all due respect a domain name costs $35 for a year. It may be a lot of money to you but its not for me. And you dont have to buy it for two years.

noticed that everybody wants to be a leader natural but don't propose your self.

eh?

LordKhan

I own 5 domains
and 3 servers
but spending it on a
not even offical formed
can't change the domain on the list

but I am sure if we ask the guys at IGN they might help :-)

SHADOW

Indeed

however nothing is official until it is done.
That said ign backing would be kewl.

But again that is their choice.

Monty - the one and only

Hmm who is intereasted in an allicnce with FA, A few of us are duel members of both GF and FA....The FA is made up of nearly 100 planets and has already alligned itself with FC a fairly large alliance....

I'll leave the decision up to you but as a high ranking member of FA I would advise that this alliance be accepted....

Our enemies shall ph33r us
