126. You are actually a pacifist! (seen it done a guy relies on trading tech and builds ships for other players and sold it to them at discount, eventually one of the sides turned on him and WHAM insta death).

127. You build thousands of satelites yet forget to launch them into orbit of your worlds (AI does that alot!)

128. Your main weapons are the DU cannon and L5 missile even during late game.

129. You equip your ships with ONLY wave motion guns (done that one, lost my whole navy in two battles and completely redesigned every one of my ships).

130. Your main goal in life is to make friends and you conisder all races equal.

These Posts (and few others) are the most important reason why we shouldn't allow some SE4 (and especially PBW) player to become US President in the future

Hehe I'd make a bloody great president!!! Conquest every Monday purges every Tuesday and beer on Friday what's wrong with that hehe

131. Your starships have a self destruct button right next to the flusher in the lou.....bad things result.

132. Your ships apparently have no bathrooms and have to stop off regularly because the captain has to take a tinkle.

Anyone who knows star trek Original-Voyager will know what I'm talking about with those two

Though Enterprise finally showed us a bathroom.

Walter Koenig once told a story at a Star Trek convention here in Portland that explained both how Kahn knew him even though he was not in the episode Space Seed, and where the bathrooms were on the ship.

Evidently after being frozen for 200 years Kahn had to take a horrendious dump but could not find a bathroom in his quarters. Kahn roamed the ship until he finally came acrossed the only bathroom on the entire ship. Unfortunetly Checkov was using it at the time and well, Kahn had an accident. Upon leaving the bathroom Kahn grabbed the small russian and told him that he would never forget him.

I mean would you forget the man who made you crap your pants because he wouldn't let you use the only toilet in exsistance?

Walter Koenig tells that story every time he is asked about Khan

. I think its generally considered the official answer.

133.Your AI minister over rules your choices.
134.All of you ministers organize a revolt and your empire is broken into sub sections.
135.You dont speak the same language as your own people.

When I see Chekov I keep thinking he's Bester. Walter Koenig was very good as Bester... he was soooo evil.

So you have heard it too then.

Want to know something? I am the man who pissed Walter off by making a bad joke while he was signing autographs. I was so stupid for saying "Ah they have you working for your money now." Ooops, bad call. The look he gave me was not a nice one and spoke volums about what was going through his mind. The people around me all fell silent and this sense of utter dread began to fill my soul. I do apologize and should have done so then, but that look said "Don't you say another word to me." So I did not. To this day I regret ever having opened my mouth. Bad Atrocities.

This is going way OT.

I know what its like to talk without thinking first (believe it or not

). I once underwent a job test. I had the skills, no trouble there, they even told me afterward such (It was by the way a job for rewriting computer systems to handle Y2K). However while doing the test where I had to give an answer on how I would handle a dispute during a meeting I fell victim to my little foible of OPENING MY BIG FAT MOUTH and answering when the kind, friendly interviewer going around the group (as we did the computer test) asked me the question to my face. To the question of what would you do, I momentarily lost my judgement and jokingly answered the nice kind friendly woman talking to me "You just feel like punching both of them don't you

"

. This is when I learnt my people skills needed development. I got my revenge though, the scheme collapsed and none of them got payed.

and just to clarify Atrocities, I didn't hear it at a convention myself (don't get many StarTrek or SciFi conventions when you live on an island that is the Last stop before the South Pole), however I do read StarTrek books and webpages and its a widely known story that as I said is generally considered lighthearted canon.
