first off....has anyone ever seen in The Simpsons where they have family shock therapy...SMAC needs that. When an AI becomes stupid\annoying\out-of-charecter, there needs to be a nerve-staple button where when Miram is demanding something when you have more value in one city than she has in her own empire, you can press it and she says..."Im sorry for that, i have to pray now" end of transmission. And when Miss Deidre (I WANT TO RIP HER FACE!) decides to bust the planet in the name of the planet, you can press the button and she immediately spends the cash to raise the sea level back up to land and rebuild your city...and when Chairman Wang decides he wants to be a jerk and build water cities up your ass, you can hit the button and watch him appologize and begin respecting your borders...but this is all just wishful thinking.

Yes. Yes it is.

Now wash my socks.

Dream on WhirlWind.

And I'd suggest you left Evk's socks alone. His own dog won't go near them. That tells you something.

But it would be fun to hit a key and see the ugly orange orangatang shake and smoke...

LMAO, whirly.

Chairman Wang ... what a hoot! And the water city enema notion almost made me lose my lunch laughing.

Thanks.

IMHO the AI is nerve-stapled already

Top Notch

Evk's socks are rated Eco Damage 10 all by themselves by the way,

I'm just a happy little Drone.

Thanks for all your comments. I just wanted to give special thanx to Darkstar for giving me a new F*ckamentalist slam. And im glad I could make ICO laugh with my comment about Chairman Wang...Thanx for accepting me and me crazy rants. And by the way..When Lal decides to be bastard and go crazier than Hitler, demanding everything under the sun for a non-existant UN Chanrter...i wanna hit my Red Button!

Hey, think about it, while we're on the subject of rants and AI:
Idi Amin?!?!?!?
Saddam Hussein?!?!?!?!
Remember the Ayatollah Khomeini and Death to America day?
How 'bout Khadaffi?
Che Guevara's "revolution" in Bolivia?!?!?!
what a hoot that was
Mussof*ckinlini of all people wanting to use the ITALIAN Army to restore Italy to the heyday of the Roman Empire?!?!?!? ROTFLMAO

Real world leaders are unpredictable, irrational nutbags and frootloops, so why is it surprising that the AI leaders are?
didja really expect Mr. Spock and Cdr. Data?

I love the description of Miriam - I think the constipated artwork is great - I mean if she looked like Jewel or Cindy Crawford, that'd take all the fun out of life. I think Deirdre's a babe, but look at Earth First! for environmental nutbags - so Deirdre has to destroy planet to save planet - ain't that what the U.S. Army said about the city of Ben Tre in the Tet Offensive in 'Nam.

Chairman Wang is a hoot too, but there's a simple way to get people to respect your borders - "when in doubt, wipe 'em out"
So your diplomatic rating suffers a bit - it's not like we're asking the other faction's permission to do anything, is it?
I don't think Julius Caesar said "Veni, Vidi, Vici, if it's OK wit' youse guys" did he??
