I immediately thought of the fish from SpongeBob Squarepants...the sardines. Cuz pretty much all they do is say "meep".

Question:

I should know this by now, but I thought we were on Tach's side...

...are we not? Are there two groups of players here?

Some people here are on Tach's side, some are on Op's side and some are on neither side. But basically there is only one group of players trying to help the story along.

Sides don't matter. It's been proven time and time again.

Everyone switches too. When Op is moving things forward we play to Op. When Tachyon is moving things forward we play to her.

I would have to disagree with that

I too, would disagree. While it seems as though we are only playing the game to see the outcome, there are some who have chosen definite sides. When the time comes and we are told to act on those sides, I don't think we will be working as one group toward a common goal, but rather as two separate entities, trying to be the first to achieve said goal. In order to be the first, we will use our affiliation to screw with the other side. While some may have come out as staunch supporters of either Op or Tach, there are many more of us who are simply biding our time to make our move and influence the outcome to our side.

there are two sides.
Oppy's which is the side all the cool kids are on.

and Tacky's which is the side where the kids who nobody likes to sit with at lunch reside.

which is your choice?

as if it wasn't already apparent. i'm on Oppy's

i think in order to play the game we have to play both sides. that doesn't mean that we're choosing Tacky's side when lad goes on a drop. it just means we're working on behalf of Op. while on the other hand i guess the Tacky kids are doing the same.... which, was proven by KTS once before. thats a soft spot. we shouldn't really go into that.

that's kind of the point though. acting on behalf of a side hinders the game for everyone.

that's probably why Op disappeared. from a PM standpoint Tachyon doesn't ever push sides since any move at all is a move against Op in some way.
