Kzinti Empire - offical empire thread

By Posted November 15, 2007 21:29:55

You have dared to enter the lair of the most ferocious predators in the galaxy!

It is the ulitmate destiny of the Kzinti to conquer the other civilizations of the galaxy, subjugate and enslave any who may prove useful to us, and devour the rest. The Fanged God has ordained that this is how it will be...

In just 26 octals of days (7 months or so...Kzinti count in base 8), the Kzinti Empire rose from obscurity, to #1 on the Metaverse. With the blessings of the Fanged God, we have remained dominant for another 80 octals of days since that auspicious day.  We leapt past the other empires, and our mighty domain now encompasses over 21 million more light years than the second most powerful empire.  The most recent Galactic Map data shows that we have subjugated over 43.4% of this galaxy.  Many warriors from the old and dying empires have joined us, to avoid being eaten along with the rest.  We hunger to establish indefinite supremacy over all the inferior sentient species...

We have also been #1 on the AltMeta for almost 16 months running. The Empire grows more powerful with each passing day as new conquests are won, and more warriors join us in our inevitable rise to rule the galaxy!

The Kzinti are a species of bipedal space-faring feline predators, who love nothing more than conquest and battle. Created by sci-fi writer Larry Niven, the Kzinti have had many stories written about them, most notably in the Man-Kzin Wars series of books. They have also shown up in the Star Trek universe, and a number of other realities.

"Kzinti flesh has a very strong and pungent taste. The weak among us are devoured by their litter-mates within a few moons of birthing. Only the swiftest and most ferocious of us survive to their first naming-day. Those not fit to survive will never live to perpetuate their inferior bloodlines. This is the natural law of the galaxy." - Kzinti Warrior

"The meaning of life is the hot blood of your prey on your tongue, the meat that rends beneath your teeth, the corpse of your enemy left in the sun for the carrion eaters to finish, your defeated foe groveling in submission before you. That is what life is. We are the Kzinti, and we stronger, swifter, wiser, and more ferocious than any other race ever was or will be." - Kzinti philosopher

If your claws can grasp it, then it is rightfully yours. - Kzinti proverb

A salute to all those heroic t'kzintar who have made this empire a resounding success. Our conquests continue and the galaxy will never know peace!

I decided to make this map of what I think the MV Empires territories looks like,

Reduced 42%Original 1024 x 1024

Any comments, questions, suggestons?

Ok that is your thoughts.

But.

Your sizes do not represent the size of the empires. Be that due to score or membership.

The Kzin should be far greater than the ToE. 35M VS 22M

But the rest should be far smaller. You have the HCH and the Diplo's equall to or greater in size than the ToE. The ToE has nearly triple the diplos score and has triple+ that of the HCH and Orcas.

That is not represented in the size here.

 

If you go by membership, you should not see Adepta, Gecko's or Gerontocrats. Even the ToE would be very small in contrast to the 480 odd members of the Kzin and the near 200 of the HCH.

But as you say, this is your thought process, i'm just saying it looks odd is all.

because we (well, mostly some other tyrannts) have been gaining some major ground on the kzinti over the last few weeks.

March 19, 2009 00:05:23

Not as much as you may think.   The Kzinti have been growing as well, but you definitely have caught up a bit.  Time to deploy our newest weapon, the Naked Singularity Hairball!

Is that what we're calling me now?

I mean, Hi.

March 19, 2009 00:47:52

Not as much as you may think.

No, it is as much as we think. And with less then 1/6th the player population too. Your Kzin propaganda may fool the diluted mass of mindless kzin followers, but we in the ToE know the truth only too well!!

There's more to come too. [e digicons]XD[/e]

All Kzintis in favor of helping the Little Empire Adepta Sororitas out with Little Naked Singularity Hairballs and other little thingys.  Please raise your hands in favor of this little help.

Aww geez. What is this, suck up to a cat day?

Just run them over with your car, thats what i do.

Looks great Seth!!!  For now......  [e digicons]}[/e]

You may have 1/6th of the roster, but don't forget that cats sleep 2/3rds of their lives away, so those 480 some kzin members may be 'hibernating'.  I'd say that active members vs active members, it's far closer than that.

March 19, 2009 09:39:59

Bah. I'd say in the ToE right now we have no more than 10-15 actice players. I can't see my beleiving that you guys would have anything under 100.

 

Edit - Just looked at the AM and for the last 6 months its 32 for the ToE and 158 for the Kzin. Thats close enough to 5 to 1. Pretty close to what i said.

March 19, 2009 09:57:17

Hrm, didnt think we had that many actives!  Loup wouldn't be part of that active list then, but Siam would...with his piddly MVL scores lol.

March 19, 2009 10:38:05

Also remember that the active listing is characters, not members, so active member numbers for both the Kzinti and ToE would be significantly lower.  People can have three characters, and some of us like me, Neilo, & Motti have multiple accounts.  I think Motti takes the prize with 4 (or 5?) accounts?

Hehe.  Not really.  That was just smoke and mirrors.  I have 3 active accounts.  I gave the other 2 away.  [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

Hehe...  

BTW, why the LlamaMan nom-de guerre?  Is that from something, or just completely made-up?

Not a real long story, but not super short either.  My character is supposed to be evil and the Llama part comes from my natural, common and understandable fear of Llamas.  [e digicons]O[/e]  

 

j/k.  My wife and I have a running joke about Llamas spitting on you and how evil they are in that regard.  Of course, the most evil instrument one can play is Johnny Cash's guitar, hence the avatar.  [e digicons]:grin:[/e]

I've heard that llamas can actually be pretty nasty.  My best friend's parents have a couple llamas to guard their sheep, protecting them from coyotes and such.  Never had one of them spit on me though. [e digicons][/e]

1. shnikeys
a replacement word for the 'S' word. Usually used when a teen is talking and notices that his/her parent is in the room.

heh, my folks didn't care if i casually cursed around the house, as long as i was discreet regarding around whom else i cursed.

March 19, 2009 20:20:51

Ok what is the S word? I can't think of anything.  Cursing down here is not like it is in the states. Just about anything is fine, cept the C word. Fuck, prick, asshole, bastard....

There just words to most Aussies. Swearing is just slang for us. 

 

March 19, 2009 20:28:42

cept the C word.

You mean the "Word that Harborne Made Famous"?

March 19, 2009 20:34:16

Yup, that's the one. What a dickhead he was, i'm sure still is.

Whats the S word you don't want to say Seth?
