Amusing as this is, save the smack talk for the IC thread.
Not until the subject comes up IC!

Besides, I'm mostly disproving her claims that letting everyone have ships would lead to destruction. Heck, giving them to one or two people gives those people a feeling of superiority over the others.

Besides, last I checked, unlawful shipyards were possible. And if shipyards are treason, only traitors will have shipyards.

I think I can trust them all to understand MAD theory.
MAD only works for 2 players ::).
Explain.

"Alright..."

Try to help man the cannons.
which part should we fire at?
The control part?
My character is still in shock, he's probably not going to be helping a lot with the planning right now.

Blow a hole in the hull, fly to a place.

Call me meta if you must and dare, but if I can trust you, why can't I trust everyone?

In this game? Arming everybody will backfire on a massive scale.
On the plus side, I'll have fun watching it when and if it happens.
Well, if we can't trust anyone with ship-making powers, why should we trust you?

But what I meant is, if everybody is allowed to create fleets in short order it'll crumble, civil war will begin and I'll chill out in the core and say I told you so while you all wipe each other out :).
More likely what will happen is everyone builds up a fleet, one idiot attacks, everyone gangs up on him, nothing more happens except me saying "I-told-you-so".

..... I have no idea what that means.
It's an expression on the forums. It derives from the DF slogan "losing is fun" with the added comical effect of the word being "on fire" in the typical DF marking style. What it boils down to is that a story where you epically lose can be as fun as one in which you epically win, and is certainly more fun then the one where you just win as a matter of course.
More simply:
Losing is Fun. Hence, Fun involves losing. Add some !!!! for effect, and you're done.

(( Btw GWG the 2 fleet proposals are different, mine is limited to only me, the other is for everybody. Though it doesn't matter anymore since the emperor will be the one making the choice and every knows he's already won. ))
I know. I only voted for the latter.
you can't vote on it, because
a) a proposal is already being voted upon
b) it hasn't been seconded (hint, hint)
Well, I voiced my support for it!

Well if everybody is allowed to build fleets the game will implode and die within a month so won't have a major impact really.
Since inevitably somebody is going to get in somebody elses way, he's gonna get annoyed and attack said person, it's gonna spiral and then game over when everybody is to busy fighting to think about the conclave, if they don't crush us all first because we've announced to the entire galaxy we're going to attack them.
Or if that fails, then people will run out of supplies and start trying to take it from each other ending in the same result.
Although it has to wait until after the emperor is elected anyway :).
Yes, because Bay12 is well-known for sheer stupidity. Even when it's been pointed out. And people never band together to eliminate destructive aspects of their society.

((Who else thinks we may be screwed?))

"What's...they het the cntrols...huh. Why isn't my hand grabbing stuff?"

Head down the ladder and see if I can help somewhere, possibly the cannons. Avoid getting killed by a traitorous idiot, violently if need be.

"Potential weapon unit detected. Initiating materials search... Search completed. Required materials located."
Find the spaceworthy gimp suit. Modify it so that it can be worn by the dolphin. Attach a caustic cleaning chemical flail unit and a dimensional lance unit. Commence mass production of CQB gimp dolphins.
...
Find this madman and explain why that is stupid.
Stop him if he tries to proceed.
