The Hitchhikers of the Galaxy

from GalCiv2 Forums
I come here today to announce a new metaverse empire, the Hitchhikers of the Galaxy.

This is a Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy themed empire and anyone is welcome to join, even if you don't even know what the guide is . In fact, the only requirement is that you have a sense of humour.



Join our ranks and become part of our community. Over here at the Hitchhikers, your more then "just another member". Join us now and together we shall dominate the metaverse! In those already large empires(Diplomats for example) there is no need for ambition as they are already in a secure position. Help us tear down the very foundations of these unworthy empires. Have your effort count for something and not just one of the many thousands of games in an empire where it shall be overshadowed by its age-long reputation weilding members. Help us dethrone them!

Anyone can join a super-power empire, but it takes a true imperial citizen to forge one. Help us forge this empire, and be that glorious senator!

You don't like the title? I don't either! But we're working on that...

Those top 10 empires have been sitting in those ranks for too long. Much too long... They shall fall and we shall be their successors...

How long have you seen those Diplomats or Kzintis or Hegemony-ions in those top ranks? You can join them but you'll never get the same kind of respect earned as you will helping build your own empire instead of joining a ready made one. Help us build YOUR empire where you can proudly say, "Come hail or high water, we shall not be surpassed"[this part bit too cheesy, me thinks]

For every galaxy you dominate is just another day for the one of the Galactic Civilizations but its the start of a new day for the Hitchhikers of the Galaxy... as the new rising champions for the metaversal throne!

A great shift in the AltMeta top 10 has seen us rise to 8th! We have overtaken the Colonial Fleet, but now have to take on The Gerontocracy, who have come out of nowhere.

Congratulations all, and good luck in your games!

Yea, the Gerontocracy did become sucessful very very fast, but I think we can surpass them.
Reply #105 from GalCiv2 Forums Top
Yes, I winessed the birth of the Gerontocracy in the calling all geezer gamers thread. But they are old and will soon tire, needing naps and taking breaks for tea and their favorite television shows. They will forget where they put their towels. However we know where our towels are. We will hitch hike our way to the top, while they stop to complain about their lumbagos, arthritic pain, and kids on their nebulas.

In unrelated news, we have moved from eighth to seventh on the AltMeta. Well done everyone . Also welcome to Merle and Mondo.

OREO: Welcome Merle. Welcome Mondo. Our quartermaster has sent all your supplies and sundries (You know, towels, official neck ties, life time supply of pan galactic gargle blaster mix, uniforms, soap, and all that) to your post office box on Alfa Centaury. I checked and they are currently there. Feel free to pick those things up at your leisure.
Hmm, I wonder why no one else has gotten their things, not even jangerel?

I will as soon as I pick up a passing ship on my Sub-Etha Sens-O-Matic, but it's been playing up recently.



All of our members have been made senators, as per our discussions on the private forums at the Core.

I decided to join this empire after receiving the following update in the game:

"The Korx are pursuing a cultural and economic strategy. They are currently researching Planetary Bombardment, for instance."

If that isn't a sign to join the Hitchhikers, I don't know what is.

Welcome Aqua_Regia, hope you enjoy your stay .

"The Korx are pursuing a cultural and economic strategy. They are currently researching Planetary Bombardment, for instance."


I've had messages like that before .

I once met an Orca,
just south of Majorca,
with something unique to say:
"Lean out of the boat,
hook bait for fish throat,
before you go on your way.
If you see a dark shadow,
a torpedo come shallow...
just reflections of light, do stay."

Now, I have to go read that book. I started once but never finished it! I luv yur theme tho.

Hope everyone is enjoying the summer.

I am finally out of school and itching to start more wars in the name of our Empire.

Just a reminder that any and all that are interested in the metaverse should check out the Voting for MVC Councilors starts Now thread and add your voice and your vote.

Just a quick plug for the MVC. The goal of the Metaverse Council (MVC) is to increase participation and interest in the metaverse. There has already been a lot of work done on the AltMeta and the MVC has been instrumental in these improvements. There's still a lot that can be done. We share a common goal, please add your opinion and support.

If you look at my post above, you will see I've already notified the Hitchhikers of the election .
