Not joining Legion in round 2, although I'd do the same thing again. Integrity > videer.

There are three things actually i would want to do, but i guess i would settle for undoing the Sedition/YI merger and thereby hopefully avoiding people like Dogz with mottos like "We need at least 500 members to compete with Legion and Fury, so lets get to 500 members first and remove the riff-raff later" becomming HC.

Same.
Personally though the thing I regret the most was that I didn't eat some choice words of mine and would have quit after round 5.

Amen. Funny to remember myself arguing against the people who wanted to 'unchange' back to round 3 Legion then, when I feel like such a conservative old ******* now, though.

3rd agree in a row, though with a personal twist for my own situation in round 6 and 7. I'll stop reading now, or I would probably spam beyong the limits of mod patience. Nice thread, Fred.

My biggest regrets in pa have to be things I could have changed myself, so here goes...
I wish I had never left Legion in the first place. It was where I belonged and will probably always be. When that is said, I wouldn't have liked to be without the experience Deus was
r6, I wish I hadn't sucided so damned much fleet. It would have ment that Deus would have kept going at the same pace as earlier that round and would perhaps have spouted another war (or two). There were also a few military operations I never got to go through with, which was a damned shame.
r7 I wish I had kept playing.. Ending 7th after having played for one month.. Still wonder where I would have ended if I had kept going, not to mention that my galaxy would probably have kept playing if I had kept getting targets... heh

whilst i was but a pe0n in the ranks, I would of liked WaC not to have implemented there mass recruiting to keep up to date with BlueTuba.
Also would of like to have seen WaC attack Fury, when Fury attacked TE, rather then dissolve.
Might not of made much difference, but at the most, would of maybe ment Legion helped us.

Btw Rumad,thx for your kind words,
I forgot to comment in my post.
There were VERY few legionaires I didnt want to die incely (gamewise ofc), you have always been one of them.
Say hi to Prae if you see him pls
As to the xlegionaires that would have not dropped Elysium back in r5,I think that would have been a wise decision indeed.
Besides all the rest,you changed our focus from Fury to you,
and it stayed that way till you all disbanded.
Oh,and btw,we actually dropped you,when you turned our mutual alliance into something that was a joke.
So there

this i wanted my alliances to do differently:
R4 ICD: not allying with the sh*thole GLX proved to be, and very soon.... too bad noone listened to me, I know I bitched and moaned about it. It cost us many of our good members (logbat a.o. during the round and many others after the round: belderan, dread, pack.....) we were left with ppl with logins to whole galaxies yay.
R4 GP4: Baba (where are you matey :/) and sigrid deciding to break it up and make a group consisting more of their enemies than they could handle. It cost me my round, but provided me with great fun at the times of creeping daylights. Eventually, 136:4 was smashed from incluster.... btw: that attack planned on 302:4 shouldnt have been done through mail with all assigned targets and takers on it
R6: Titans allying with Deus. our galaxy was a very diverted place after that, and especially as Misc napped with XeTa after a few weeks, so we had zero targets until we cut our ties to Titans, and focused on FoS. if it wasn't for that, we wouldve been smashed quite early by Fury probably (Scouse pasted me some logs when i was #1 at 8th of februari), but more trusted by ColCarp c.s. Note: we didn't choose to fencesit, or jump ships, we just didn't want our galaxy to be torn apart.
R6: Deus attacking Sliekas and pulling after the 1st tick, making many many lazy people lose their whole fleets (yes me too). That's the one thing i can't forgive Deus Command for.
And things to my own decision:
R5 ICD: step in the hole in ICD Command earlier before it all collapsed and had to be disbanded. we couldve taken YHQ in if we had been more active... but no, they went for ND. I think that was almost the final nail to our coffin, but it was beyond repair.
It finally collapsed when ND and hirr wanted us to sign an agreement to not allow members into furgion (as it was popularly called) galaxies next round. (we had a few members there, while hirr thrived on Fury-galaxies....) the story went as follows: we refused such an act and thus were left alone, with hardly more than 20 active members left. (the irony: never had an ICD-galaxy done better than in r6; I remember the topics we set in #icd when we were on top of the game heh, and we had to cooperate with more hirrers and ND-command in our cluster than ever before: ColCarp, Barrow, Tic to name a few (or all?))
R6 F&F: in hindsight, we couldve stuck with our neutral-targets for one more week if we had known the FoS-XeTa nap was to dissolve very fast, thus meaning us to stay with Titans. at that time the best decision I/we made, but in hindsight one of the worst. It was fun to have Xanadu HC in a room controlled by us asking us to plz hurry with our decision regarding the way to go hehe. we couldve had much better defence from Titans than what we got from the leftovers from Deus, hirr, ND and others.

I'd have tried to get Legion to make war with Fury in Round 2, and thus change pa's entire history.

Well, you could've given your allies of 3 rounds a better deal than wing status, which I believe was consequently dropped. In the end we went for ND because it was a better offer asked earlier. A year ago I said that if ICD had given me the offer sooner I would have accepted, although I'm not sure what road that would have taken us down, probably would have kept Patience alive at least.

Join BDBs galaxy.
It made me active. It made me **** up school and work. It made me do horrible things to our enemies. Made me become #1 gal in round 7. Made the Crew **** it up. Made me hang around with people like Furbie, AllFather and Dread etc etc etc.
Lots of reasons

hmm, i dont remember ICD having allies in r3 at all! but then, i was just an academy-member in that round...
anyway, done things are done, our relation turned sour at the end of r5, but we all got back together in r6 within our cluster . I don't really know how long ICD would've survived or how we would've thrived if we had managed and picked our allies better. Lucky us, we are still alive as a group of friends, prolly as long as netgamers keeps this server alive. (Important note: yes this has to stay alive!)
