Maybe you could apply the Codicil and turn the Gaians over to the AI?

Edit: Oh, I didn't realise the attachment problem plagued the DG forum in general too. Here's 2114 to the Angels.

Problem: since I can't upload things here on 'Poly, and can't appearantly attach files anymore in this thread, I'm out of the game. Sorry.

I don't know if another Angel member is interested in continuing this.

You could email me or someone else the turn and then they could upload it? And methinks the attachment problem is only temporary, at least it got fixed just now in the private forums.

I think it doesn't need being topped, the turn rate is fast enough to keep it near the top.

Paintball? Why would somebody wants to paint balls when he could have been planting forests and building roads? Hmmm that doesn't sound very exciting as well.

it must be this younger generation's cyberspeak, or summat, but what the heck is meant by:

0wn3d, and it's sibling, pawned (or whatever) - and l33t (I can't remember if that's the right combo I saw somewhere, but you get the gist)

It's called Leet speak. Using characters that look sort of like the intended letters, and using common mistakes as intentional substitutes. Hence l33+ for Leet, and 0wn3d or pwn3d for owned (=defeated/dominated).

Poor Googlie.

Not sure if the younger generation is any good in math, at least they are using numbers like 1337 and one and eleven. You know, like !!1!!one!!!11! Looks like 0 and 3 are quite the favorite too.

Well as far as I can tell.

Owned came from "I own your ass" or "your ass got owned". Which sort of means "you don't have control of the situation anymore".

Generally I've observed it to be used in situations where one person is saying he's better off than you are due to you falling flat on your face, either from other causes or because of that person doing certain things.

The goal of 1337 speak is to make your text as indecipherable as possible, while still actually conveying meaning.

are the common spellings of 'owned',
meaning that you have been dominated, overpowered, humiliated, or have generally had your ass kicked.

1337 (as I had for my avatar before the spam)
is a manner of speaking in symbols.

EDIT:
Methinks this thread got 0wn3d.
