1. We've removed all the weapons. It's up to the players to code the stuff we didn't put in. It's very community oriented.
2. Jhilger is the only admin.

3. "Two words: bread baking."

4. Ok, the accusations that the game is really a hardcore BDSM chatroom are true. On the other hand, the Terran medium armor model is still in.

5. We decided jetpacks would greatly enhance gameplay.

6. We decided to fill every base with Tribbles. Everyone loves Tribbles.

7. There is only one weapon, LOVE.

8. The programming team pulled a Heaven's Gate on us.

9. Does anyone here know C++??

10. Drew Curtis is our server maintanence guy from now on.

11. The game's frontend has been designed by Gator.

12. JHilger is now the producer.

21. The Purple Shrine was going to be put back as a suprise for beta testers, but we've decided to remove it again.
22. Battle Rank now directly affects your ability to use armor to its fullest potential, this means higher battle ranked members will have higher armor protection. Also, accuracy is now affected by battle rank, while commander rank directly affects one ability to drive all vehicles. The later decision was thought up last night after a few passes of the peace pipe.

23. The Galaxy is out.

24. The Beta acceptance letters have been sent, if you have not recieved one, you're not getting into exclusive beta. In order to be fair to all members of this growing community, if you failed to get into Exclusive beta, you are automaticaly rejected from 'open' beta.

25. The lead programmer has been shot. We have replaced him with 2 billion monkeys, typing away at 4 billion typewriters *some guy in the effeciency department discovered a way to double our programming power, woot!*
