I crawl out and look around... Everything is functioning without a glitch... I check the news feeds and nothing notable has occurred...<br />
<br />
In conversations with other TE3K players, we've come to the conclusion that the game needs an injection of caffeine or something... I have offered adding destructive ideas in the past to light the fires. Others have offered their ideas, things like "Festival" from the classic TE. We wait and hope patiently for something that will add more excitement to the game...<br />
<br />
No one likes drama, but really we could use some at the game level to get people excited, big dramatic events within the game between players. Yes we can randomly sabotage and randomly bribe. But what if you could chose your target? Yes, I see the problem with people with a lot of alts, picking on a soul player. But we need something more that gets players more interactive.<br />
<br />
If you have any wild and crazy ideas to fire up TE3K please add them in the comments here. You can post anonymously.<br />
<br />
I wonder over to my command chair and sit... file my nails, which have not stopped growing while in the Cryo Chamber, and wait...Alamigahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10297852794857571588noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523777319581141584.post-30165920994001228932012-11-26T08:13:00.000-08:002012-11-26T12:48:01.072-08:00Current Guild RankingsGuild Rankings and Leaders as of November 26th, 2012<br />

Been a few shifts from the last rankings report, Supernova has fallen to the minors and appears some of the people from there left and have joined a couple of other guilds. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>*On
the standing page main map it shows Hera as ranked 22, but shows it
also ranked lower on the minors page. Hera is kept on the main map for

Seems that there has been little change in the universe for a millennium and wonder, Space is so big, people are spread into the far depths, light years away from each other. There must be a place we can meet, a neutral zone... Occasionally I see life on the official "Tiny Empires 3000" Group comm channel and the official "TE3000 Directors Alliance" Group channel. The only place where you might run into another player is the Tiny Empires Upgrade Station, but if you loiter around there, you could be accused of recruiting, which is not allowed there. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a place for us to meet and hangout and not worry about being accused of recruiting. As of this writing I know of no such place.<br />
<br />
There are several unofficial groups related to Tiny Empires 3000, some who are "free speech" and or "recruiting groups," but they tend to be small and very quiet.<br />
<br />
So wouldn't it be nice if there was a Neutral Help Center, maybe like a Star Wars bar, where we can meet and offer help to new players and get to know each other better? Maybe even pick up a subordinate...<br />
<br />
Maybe I'm dreaming and I really didn't wake up from my cryo sleep...<br />

Unlike the classic game of Tiny Empires which does have abdication, which subjects the Monarch wishing to abdicate, to a number negative effects within the game. But some do decide to take this course of action and quite often, someone under them takes control of their kingdom.<br />
<br />
There is no formal way to abdicate in Tiny Empires 3000. There are several Minor Guilds whose Guild Leaders have basically quit playing and cut their subordinates loose to pursue their own dreams. But if you really want to quit playing Tiny Empires 3000, Ultralite Soleil will grant you a request to be removed from the game. Now if your a Guild Leader, your Guild will cease to exist, your subordinates will end up without a superior, and you, if you decide to play Tiny Empires 3000 ever again will have to get a new HUD and start from scratch, all over again. I also suspect, that if you were able to form a new Guild again, you probably won't be allowed to reuse the same Guild name you used previously.<br />
<br />
Basically what this sounds like to me is, it is like setting your Guild on a course into a Black Hole in space. Everyone gets sucked into the Black Hole, nothing comes out...The only evidence that your Guild ever existed, maybe a footnote on the Tiny Empires 3000 Wiki or in a past post on this Blog...Alamigahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10297852794857571588noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523777319581141584.post-6431296522186620822012-09-17T01:11:00.001-07:002012-09-17T01:30:54.499-07:00From the Shadows Emerges Tunaverse Immortalis!September 16th, 2012 the Tunaverse Immortalis Guild is formed by Guild Leader The Wizard of Odd (tuna.oddfellow). "I ascended from Shadow Guild at August 3019," he said from his tuna can... err Starbase.<br />
Tuna had this to say on his ascension:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"It has been a true delight spending the time I have had with Shadow Guild. Now it is time to spread our wings. I am so proud of the commitment of those who are joining us. This is our ascension and they share in the success. I could not do it with out them.<br />
Long live Tunaverse Immortalis"</blockquote>
Tuna also claims to be somewhat famous:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"My avatar won Avatars Got Talent in 2007 and appeared on America's Got Talent on NBC and I won a million Linden dollars which was the largest prize in Second Life back in the day... My life is stranger than fiction.</blockquote>
Million SL Dollars... think that's about $1000 US.... Probably wrong, math is my weakness.<br />

Nicole was unavailable at the time of this report so I asked Mu Federation Guild Leader Buckaroo Mu his thoughts:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Alamiga Anatine: Will be writing about "Supernova's" birth in the TE3K blog, I'm assuming a positive thing from your perspective?<br />
<br />
<br />
Buckaroo Mu: Absolutely. It's an honor to midwife another guild into the game. This is the 3rd guild to ascend directly from us, and the 9th in our "family tree". I'm quite proud of them all. </blockquote>
I had a peek at Supernova's group charter and gathered the following from it:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Supernova - an explosion of a massive, super-giant star...that shines with the brilliance of 10 billion suns! We are a friendly, kooky, and peaceful Guild ..fun-loving, and no sabotage. The third line to Guild under the leadership of Buckaroo Mu, of Mu trade.....we count among our many friends...the Federation Alliance, and Swank.....<br />
Nicole Perian, Guild Leader</blockquote>

When you buy or sell a ship you get one, five from the Mysterious Black Diamond Vessel. It's looking like from almost any activity at this time! What is it for? No one knows yet... Below is the one I got for buying a ship, and how it appears in your accounting tab.<br />

[Apr 3994] Robyn Hirano now leads one of the top ten guilds in the sector.</blockquote>
I asked Robyn for a quote upon her ascension, she said:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Is there truth in the myth?<br />
Do phoenixes exist?<br />

What follows is our little chat about it: <br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Alamiga Anatine: Hello Amaya, I was told you reached the credit cap in Tiny Empires 3000. Could you tell me about it for the TE3K Blog?<br /><br />
Amaya Heart-Aeghin: I reached that. while I was still in Serenity. 10.4 trillion.<br /><br />
Alamiga Anatine: Still at the cap?<br /><br />
Amaya Heart-Aeghin: No. not any more. Being a Guildleader has much more in the way of expenses. And the credit return rate isn't as good s in TE regular<br /><br />Alamiga Anatine: Yes several Guild leaders have said its hard to keep it up there.<br />
<br />Amaya Heart-Aeghin: Hadn't thought about it. Didn't know Ihad actually reached it till the time of ascension and had mentioned it to Ultra. The biggest cut on the guild leader is the taxes.. Being that it takes take a huge chunk. if you stay up there at the cap.<br /><br />
Alamiga Anatine: Wonder if taxes is higher if you have the ship reserves built up to maximun..<br /><br />
Amaya Heart-Aeghin: I'll find out when we get to the guild reserve up to the 10k<br /><br />
Alamiga Anatine: Well thanks for the information!<br /><br />
Amaya Heart-Aeghin: anytime :)</blockquote>Alamigahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10297852794857571588noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523777319581141584.post-87546912478270921732011-10-12T13:56:00.000-07:002011-10-12T14:14:16.681-07:00Newly Discovered Punishment: Stripping of MedalsYesterday at some time Guild Leader BigJohn (bigjohn.troglodite) tried the "Strip a Medal" option with Mari (marielle.itano) that came up on the Punishment screen, he made it public so we all could see the result. This was not meant as a malicious act, Mari had requested a new title and had 3 medals already. So in order for Mari to get a new title, a medal had to be stripped away. I asked about the process in the following interview text:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
Alamiga Anatine: Hello BigJohn... Im tring to get some info on the medal stripping I heard you did last night for the TE3K Blog...<br />
Alamiga Anatine: It was part of prison yes?<br />
BigJohn: no it wasn't<br />
BigJohn: I will tell you though<br />
BigJohn: if someone has been given 3 medals by a guild, they can't get another one<br />
BigJohn: ie<br />
BigJohn: no titles<br />
Alamiga Anatine: right<br />
BigJohn: so Ultra added that<br />
BigJohn: so I can strip a medal<br />
BigJohn: which is why she got the medal and title afterwards<br />
Alamiga Anatine: ok<br />
BigJohn: it doesn't have any effect on ships<br />
Alamiga Anatine: good<br />
BigJohn: it's not like prison<br />
Alamiga Anatine: so it was an option when you tried to give her a 4th medal<br />
BigJohn: no<br />
BigJohn: it came on the punishment screen<br />
BigJohn: it's a 2 part process<br />
Alamiga Anatine: ok first part was?<br />
BigJohn: punishment<br />
BigJohn: stripping of a medal is actually something that is good for the player<br />
Alamiga Anatine: ok<br />
BigJohn: but it is just a very super expensive way of titling someone<br />
BigJohn: I was able to give ships again also<br />
BigJohn: with the medal<br />
Alamiga Anatine: now she wasn't at the 3500 cap?<br />
BigJohn: no she was<br />
BigJohn: it auto sells them<br />
Alamiga Anatine: ok<br />
BigJohn: he said he added it a while back<br />
Alamiga Anatine: ah<br />
BigJohn: it's actually a show of caring to strip a medal<br />
BigJohn: it doesn't sound that way but<br />
Alamiga Anatine: so did she get jail too?<br />
BigJohn: no<br />
BigJohn: you get 3 options now<br />
BigJohn: jail, banish, strip a medal<br />
Alamiga Anatine: great<br />
BigJohn: so basically there's no negative to it<br />
BigJohn: but it makes sense to put it in punishment<br />
Alamiga Anatine: cept in credits<br />
BigJohn: which was good cuz I could re title them<br />
BigJohn: in like 4 turns<br />
BigJohn: credits lol<br />
BigJohn: once you top a trillion who cares<br />
Alamiga Anatine: I got so many it isn't funny<br />
BigJohn: but yeah, basically if you see a title stripped<br />
BigJohn: it means that they had been titled 3 times already<br />
BigJohn: and can't be OM<br />
Alamiga Anatine: So with OM's you don't see that option?<br />
BigJohn: I have no idea<br />
BigJohn: I don't think OM's can jail<br />
BigJohn: otherwise you get messages about OM's <br />
Alamiga Anatine: so you have to strip a medal to give a new title in her case?<br />
BigJohn: yes<br />
BigJohn: no way around it<br />
Alamiga Anatine: ok<br />
BigJohn: otherwise you get messages about OM's</blockquote>

<br />
<br />On Friday, August 12th, 2011 (March 3253 TE3K) Aderyn "Addy" Quinnell took the reigns of the Pegasus and created Tiny Empires 3000's newest Guild! Ascending from Twilight Zone she had the following words for us, from which I derived the title:
<br />
<br /><blockquote>Pegasus is one of my favorite mythology stories. We were looking at different constellations and this one just fit. He rose up out of Medusa's neck when she was beheaded. He was the carrier of Zeus' thunderbolts... More aptly put, he was born out of Medusa's severed neck... Given more time, I could probably tell that better I'm sure LOL ( <a href="http://www.pegasus70.com/legend.html">http://www.pegasus70.com/legend.html</a> )
<br />
<br />Thanks to Snookums for being a good mentor. Thanks to Tremor for giving me the confidence in myself and proving I could do this and thanks for all the support of my guild. I have the most amazing downline. They've been behind me and supported me 100% Oh... and special thanks to Twilight Zone for their hospitality while I waited to guild.</blockquote>Congratulations to Addy and we wish Pegasus a bright future!

Ascending from Serenity, with the blessings of all there. I contacted her later and what follows is the impromptu interview:<br /><blockquote>Alamiga Anatine: Congratulations on the Guild!<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: Thankies.<br /><br />Alamiga Anatine: I know you ascended from Serenity, today sometime...<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: This morning SLT.<br /><br />Alamiga Anatine: Would you have a quote I could use, like what the Guild stands for, thanks to folks etc?<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: I haven't prepared a proper motto yet, but Guardian Angels is a friendly place.<br /><br />Alamiga Anatine: I assume you expected to be a minor Guild?<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: Yes.<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: It's one one the things that I'd expected... and discussed with Flonne before I went under Flonne's partner in Serenity<br /><br />Alamiga Anatine: Many have ascended to just retire from the game, doesn't sound like that's your plan.<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: Nope, I do plan to keep going and build to out of the minors.<br /><br />Alamiga Anatine: Wonderful, that's good to hear!<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: Thanks. Being queen in TE and Guild Leader now, in TE3K I do plan to keep helping to build the guild.<br /><br />Alamiga Anatine: Myself I find growth in TE3K extremely slow in comparison to Classic. Do you find it the same?<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: There is a big difference in the two games. as far as growth. Most of the time, , from my observation, new players are usually introduced to the "Vanilla" version of TE ( as my partner calls it ) before they are tossed into the TE3K version<br /><br />Alamiga Anatine: Maybe I need to be tossing players around too! But I find new people either choose one or the other, not seen many take on both initially.<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: Right, doing both from the get go is rather a challenge, unless someone is really bored or pays attention. definitely a way to learn how to multi-task. A thing to remember about 3k is that things happen, even if they take time.<br /><br />Alamiga Anatine: Mhmm, yes they do... Anyone you would care to send thanks to at this time?<br /><br />Ranchan Weidman: All the folks that have made this possible. Which includes Guardian Angels Guild members, members from Serenity, specifically Guild Leader and SL sister, Flonne, her partner Skyelynne and Serenna.</blockquote><br />Thank You Ranchan for your time and again, Congratulations!Alamigahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10297852794857571588noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523777319581141584.post-49770733045396899212011-05-28T03:04:00.000-07:002011-05-28T03:34:26.128-07:00Lasch Avro Ascends Into RetirementLasch Avro ascending today from Styx Imperium II and formed a new guild called "Intimate Confessions."<br />After the guild formed, all lines returned to Styx II and Lasch into a self imposed retirement from Tiny Empires 3000.<br /><br />Toohey Paneer had the following words to add:<br /><blockquote>Lasch's ascension as Guild Leader see's her going into retirement in Tiny Empires 3000 as she did in Tiny Empires Classic. Her work in TE and T3K was honorable and was a huge help immediately after I personally Ascended. Many like her and love her and we, as a Guild, wish her all the best in her future in Second Life.<br /></blockquote>Congratulations Lasch on your retirement!Alamigahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10297852794857571588noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523777319581141584.post-69743164968648257752011-05-09T14:59:00.000-07:002011-05-09T15:07:29.119-07:00Cornholio Lilliehook Becomes Latest Guild LeaderAscending from the Federation Guild on May 8th, 2011, Cornholio Lilliehook forms the newest guild in Tiny Empires 3000.

Styx Imperium II becomes the 26th guild to enter the TE3K Universe. Toohey had the following quote for us:<br /><blockquote>Styx Imperium II was formed based upon a set of values put in place by Bratt Lunasea. He has formally handed over the reins of his Guild to myself and I intend honour the values instilled by Bratt in Styx. I wish to thank Bratt for all his help, guidance and support over the last 6 months in building up to this moment. Styx Imperium intends to be Guild of the people. Where people come first, a healthy happy Guild. <br /><br />Also within this new Guilding, an alliance has been formed between The Rebellion and Styx Imperium II. This great new relationship will flurish and be an asset for both Guilds.<br /><br />GL Toohey Paneer, Styx Imperium II<br /></blockquote>Although Bratt retired from TE3K, he still remains in power and is giving his total focus of his kingdom in TE Classic. As many of you may not know, there is nothing similar to abdication currently available in TE3K. So once a Guild Leader, always a Guild Leader.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Congratulations to Toohey Paneer and Styx Imperium II!</span></span>Alamigahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10297852794857571588noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523777319581141584.post-17940633326554099072010-09-26T20:19:00.000-07:002010-09-26T20:46:59.321-07:00Lelana Ansaldo forms 25th Guild!On the evening of September 26, 2010 Lelana Ansaldo cut the tethers from the Shadow Guild and hit the thrusters to take her new Guild called "Renegade," to its position in the Tiny Empires 3000 Universe.<br /><br />I chatted with Lelana afterward and got the following quote from her:<br /><br /><blockquote>Hi we are the Renegade Guild, we named us that cause we had to get here the hard way, through a few detours a few losses but more then anything all the struggles we went through, made a stronger bond to form this guild.

Spawning from the Anarchy Guild, Koru becomes the 23rd Guild to enter the TE3K Universe.<br /><br />I had a wonderful chat with Soph and got the following from her, for the blog:<br /><blockquote>Soph Shepherd: The name of the Koru Guild is derived from a Maori word meaning life, growth, strength and peace. The Guild is the end of a long path and the beginning of a new one. There will be bumps along the way, there were bumps getting here.

Stewart did not want to deprive his crew of the benefits they would miss due to his inactivity in Second Life. This was all done because, currently, there is no way for a Guild Leader to abdicate their position in Tiny Empires 3000.<br /><br /><blockquote>Kaelyn Mahoney: We formed out of Sikaria in a bittersweet situation... So while we are saddened to see Stew having to step down, we are happy that he is getting to pursue great opportunities that RL is offering him right now.<br /><br />We are like family to each other and have been through some rough times that have only made us stronger. We will continue growing and supporting each other and anyone who wants to call us home. Sikaria's spirit lives on in each of our hearts.</blockquote><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Congradulations to Kaelyn Mahoney and The Neutral Zone!</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Best Wishes to Stewart McDowwll in his endeavors!</span></span>Alamigahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10297852794857571588noreply@blogger.com0
