The 00th Regiment
The 00th Intergalactic Space Regiment is deeply rooted in galactic history as the most stalwart guardians of the Star Crown, defenders of countless space princess's honor and slayers of multiple amorphous Galaxy Gas Monsters, SNordwal SNrodsNorts and the dreaded Dutch.
Founded in the year of our Lord 4015AE by Overlord Thundersnow, known slayer of stampeding Bauerhorses and savior of Slucey Powergrip the Forgotten. The 00th Intergalactic Space Regiment was created and headquartered in Xuv Mountain on the fifth moon of Salsbury, aptly named “The Fifth Moon of Salsbury” in the Truckle Quadrant.
Tasked with guarding the Sacred Quintessence of Salsbury for all eternity, the 00th have proven time and again to be more than adequate defenders of the aforementioned object to which they were appointed to guard, of which was just mentioned to have been mentioned.
In a melon-heavy zero-plus gravity environment, the 00th practiced countless hours honing their fierce melee skills, soporific staring contests and witty repartee with great abandon. Members of the 00th are known galaxy wide as unequaled in their following of the Tact, honorable intentions towards beautiful young women, and a fondness for steamed dumplings with a side of tangy soy sauce.
In the year of our Lord 4025 AE, while patrolling the outer rim of Slammy Vux, Overlord Thundersnow and a large contingent of his personal guard entered unknowingly into a cloud of Ut, infecting everyone aboard the space slider with acute Space Madness. Veering wildly off course while massacring each other with lazer spice tongs and reciting Salsbury showtunes, the USS Ubiquitous fell into a randomized blackmatter re-dimensionalizer, which, as should be obvious by now to anyone reading, spit them out into this current reality. Coasting into this planet's gravitational field, the Ubiquitous went into a 4,000mph deadfall and eventually crashed into the ocean. It was really, really hot so there was a lot of steam. It was like “PSSssSSSssSST” with water shooting everywhere. It was pretty cool. One of those things where you kinda had to be there. What? Stop looking at me like that.
Those of the 00th who steamily emerged from the submerged wreckage and dragged their way onto the beach with their tattered seacapes and emergency steamed dumpling pouches were truly the best of the best, the creme de la crème, or as is known in your dimensions reality , “not bad”.
Killing time until they can reach their sunken story hook, the USS Ubiquitous, our valorous 00th regiment is content to practice their beliefs and wield their might whilst confined alongside these planet-locked primitives, recruiting the strongest and funniest among them to help them carry out their crusade of Freedom, Justice, and the eventual muting of mic hogs throughout the universe.
Are you one of these men?
1)Do you possess tact? Meaning, for instance, will a child be able to accidentally stumble into our Teamspeak and be ushered out soon after without having acquired a thousand yard stare, shock white hair and a jaded outlook for the rest of his 70+ years on this planet because you just HAD to say something so brutally and emotionally incapacitating that no human being within 100 miles would even bother to drag your unconscious body out of oncoming traffic?
2)Are you looking for the TL;DR at the end of this post? Do you do that for every post longer than 3 sentences?
3)Are you mature for your age?
4)Do you have difficulty taking orders? Do you possess the ability to stand in place for up to 5 minutes without tearing your eyes out and blathering into your microphone about the current state of your genitalia?
5)Will you be super pissed when I eventually kick your sorry ass out of the guild for being an uncouth asshat?
6)Do you have the ability to not drag the rest of the regiment down with your crippling depression?
7)Did you get over that situation we talked about last week, the one where you said you were really down on your luck and started crying about how your girlfriend left you and moved out of the apartment you were sharing and went on and on for hours about how you gave her everything she ever wanted and that all she kept asking for was to just open up and talk about your feelings and emotions and that when you finally did open up she realized that she didn't real love you, she only loved the mystery of not knowing you and now that she saw the whole you the mystery was gone and she left and took all her furniture and my frozen corn dogs and said she just wanted to be friends, but you knew, you ****in KNEW she would never want to be your friend, because she stopped answering my calls and pretended to not see my '911' texts every morning at 4:36am and then she told her mother to stop taking my late night skypes because I would just sob for hours and hours asking where I went wrong with her daughter and what could I do to make her come back, and eventually asking her to go out with me on a date because she was so understanding, so much more understanding then her perfect daughter who doesn't like me anymore but they share the same hair and look kind of alike in the right light and
Are you frequently the target of malicious “lies” and “mistaken identity” claims, blaming you for heartless, cold-blooded acts of racism, teamkilling and/or remorseless douchbaggery on a global scale?
9)Are you already planning on taking over my regiment?
10)The second you join, are you expecting a promotion to Second-In-Command?
If you answered “Pineapple” to any of the above questions, you may have a mental condition. You should go to the nearest hospital and ask them for their electro-shock therapy package.
If you answered “There is no way in hell I'd join this regiment” to any of the above questions, you may have the stuff it takes to become a member of the 00th. The stuff of legends. Epic stuff. Legendary stuff, that's what you might have. I'd get that checked out immediately, prevention is 90% of the cure.
00th Rules
- Tact!
- Know What Tact Means! Go Look It Up If You Don't Know!
- Never Surrender!
- Honor Above All Else!
- Never Go Back For The Wounded They Only Slow Down Forward Progress!
- Get Teamspeak and a mic. You don't need to talk, but you are required to be able to hear orders.
The 00th Regiment will have a long, extended recruitment stage, during which you may be dismissed for no good reason or satisfactory explanation. Such is life. Deal with it. This isn't your softball league where everyone gets to swing and everyone wins and everyone gets the same goddamn trophy at the end of the season.
The 00th Regiment does not abide racism.
The 00th Regiment does not abide discussion of religion.
The 00th Regiment does not abide discussion of politics.
The 00th Regiment does not abide whining. If your voice should change an octave while complaining, you will be accused of whining. Specialized sound equipment is already in place to monitor any abnormalities so there is no confusion. If you are going through puberty special provisions will be set in place.
The 00th Regiment does not abide any heated argument lasting over 20 minutes. After which, the argument is considered *Thunderlocked* and may not be argued further until 24 hours have passed. If one of the participants states after that time “Dude I just don't wanna argue about this anymore, its depressing me just shut up.” the other participant/participants are quietly declared the victors in a small ceremony with a full contingent of musicians and color guard, on the map and location of their choosing, with said spot forevermore declared “[Victor's Name] Crossing” or “[Victor's Name] Way” or “[Victor's Name] Hill”. Or whatever, man. Just get over it already.
The 00th Regiment reserves the right to dismiss any current member at any time, providing it is in a spectacular and dramatic fashion, reminiscent of some angst ridden teens' daydream vision of something bull**** and totally unfair. After which the dismissed is told to give his final words to his long time friends, only to be perma-banned from the teamspeak server after he utters his first sylable. This memorable scenario will be known as a *Thundershow* and will be required to be spoken of in hushed tones during a twelve hour long 'Rememberance' on the 4th of every third month of said occurrence, as recorded by the high ranking taker of such sad, awe inspiring events, known as the 'Tracker of Tears' whose other responsibilities include, but are not limited to, casually following the career of the dismissed while incognito in the following months, bringing up his name randomly in carefree approach as to “wondering what he was up to now?”, and “heard he joined your regiment, how's he workin out?”and collecting all the horrible kinds of **** talking being said by said dismissed, so that these utterances may be cataloged and retold during the tri-monthly Rememberances, and there will be much dancing and rejoicing.
Re-application is allowed following the 3 month Rememberance jubilation celebrating your jerkiness. If, after being mocked and ridiculed, your reapplication is accepted, the event will hence be known as a *Thunderblunder* and never spoken of again.
The 00th Regiment does not abide discussion of what the 00th does not abide to.
Ideally, the 00th Regiment will be a small regiment, eventually spanning across other gaming spectrums, keeping a friendly core group of mature gamers who won't crap all over the furniture, or have a stroke because someone hasn't shown up for two weeks or some other stupid petty argument and demand that Jar Jar Binks be appointed as the entire planets representative to call for a vote of no-confidence and throw the entire universe into disarray forever. Seriously. Jar Jar Binks. Think about that. While you and your small band are running around saving the universe, you couldn't hand this guy a yoda sized lightsaber for fear he might accidentally slice open his own throat within 5 seconds, and he's the guy these geniuses appoint to represent them and their entire planet. Kick that one around in your skull for awhile.
I am launching the 00th Regiment here in the Mount and Musket community because frankly I am addicted to the game and was kind of hoping someone would step in and do an intervention with all my friends sitting around in a circle in comfy couches and big leather chairs with cameras rolling and I'd start bleating like a goat when things got real emotional. But I digress.
Eventually there will be a fancy website, forum, steamed dumplings, etc. For now I am collecting cannon fodd...err, recruits to eventually wade into the bloody wheat that is Mount and Musket within the next few weeks.
If you are interested in joining the 00th Regiment, please post your intentions, and either message me here and include your original Steam account name so I can contact you, or email me with your original Steam account name and a few words about yourself, and I will contact you.
