THE GENERAL RULES OF CONDUCT are as follows:
- If you miss 7 ticks and don't advise us in advance, you will get deleted.
- Since people have lives outside SE IV (Incredible yes, but not impossible), you can ask IN ADVANCE for up to a weeks pause in the game to go visit your grandma in Scotland. After a week you can of course miss up to 7 more ticks (if you also happen decide to go visit your mother in law in the Death Valley)
- If the players vote on it we can pause the game indefinitely.
- Noone becomes a terrorist and forms an "Axis of Evil" (copyright George W. Bush inc.) because he lost his/her home system to a Star destroyer.
- If someone keeps missing turns on a regular basis the other players can vote him/her out. (say u miss 3 turns every week)
- Don't play SE IV and drive. The consequences can be dire.
- Anything else your sick game master comes up after a late night out.

If you've read all this and agree to become a slave to your computer and this game of SE IV, join us.

It's your rule, man. If you want it followed you would better serve your own needs to make it clear.
