You find yourself at Sector Selector Station. It is a station where Sector Selectors, such as the first 13 of you, are.

The first thirteen goons to post in this thread laying claim to an unclaimed sector will become lord of whatever planet is found within.

To lay claim to a sector you must view the image at the bottom of this post, then post the name of the sector which you would like to claim in bold. If you would like to claim Sector 69, you would include this in your post:
Sector 69

If you would like a character name that is different from your forums name please post that as well

Then what?
The planets and their attributes will be revealed. Further instructions and an alternate signup method for lesser, more plebian posters will be introduced. The annals of the ongoing current history of The Space Sector march forever onward, and we see what awaits us next in the future of the current era before it becomes the past...

Sector Lords may interject in the thread at any time to tell us how the lord of their sector would react to current events. Perhaps you want to launch an attack on a neighboring sector, or engage in intrathread diplomacy, or you want to band together with other sectors to create an army that can kill god. Whatever.

This thread is an experiment with the idea of a MMO CYOA Thread where multiple players choose their own adventures with one game master rolling dice behind the scenes and writing it up. Some players will rule planets, other players will command spaceships, and other players may just be bit parts in another player's schemes.

This era is only going to run for 7 days, with daily updates, just to see what it's like. If it's fun and the game continues beyond then, the current era will be locked into the past and a new era will be launched.

now choose your sector, sector lords...

The thick clouds that were covering up Space before you began to explore it start to clear up as you explore it. No one understands why this happens.



BluesShaman discovers the planet Garboria. A Garden-class world with a population of 17 million, Garboria grows all kinds of garbage.
The Walrus uncovers a planet called Websyburg which immediately declares them the Chosen One and they now own a small terraforming colony on a strange moon.
Smugworth is the King Baron of Dutopia, a Big Gas class planet with a population of 256,000 that must live somewhere within the gas. Smugworth is very rich because of this.
Sophy Wackles discovers Utopioca, a Nice-class planet housing 26 million souls, a fledgeling civilization which has not yet established itself among the galactic economy.
Ignatius M. Meen discovers the.. Face Place Space Base. An Upper-class planet, or artificial planet probably, that seems to house many fine dining and luxury goods retail establishments. With only 347 full-time residents it is a surprise that FPSB is one of the richest planets in existence.
Froggage uncovers the JUNC sector which actually was DUnC but changed for copyright reasons. It's a junky planet full of sand dunes named Dunce. You are trapped there Froggage, hahaha.
Repeating meme is the new Lord Savrior of Chrisp, a tiny Boil-class planet that grows like a wart on this mysterious sector's sectorial rear end.

What more wonders are yet to be uncovered???

I couldn't do that to the poor cat, its master of this land and already so comfortable wherever its hiding, maybe under the couch

I would like to open communications with dunce, im looking for land to plant cheap cabins to advertise predatory time shares and would like to rent space in their expansive wastes to do so. In exchange i can loan out a teaming workforce desperate to stretch their legs off this sardine can of a planet for once in their lives

deep dish peat moss

Much of the sector is now explored. Sector E is the only remaining sector.

Whybird discovers Blucifer, the Gassy Kid class planet with a lot to offer after a little renovation.


we get boat we get go discovers Lilville - contrary to how it looks, Lilville is not a particularly small planet, but it suffers from a condition where while you are there, everything else in the universe is twice as big.


Lord Voidus Biggus lays claim to the Lifestar - a fledgling planet with the power to do powerful things, somewhere deep inside of it.


istewart is the steward of planet Opps - a Whoops-class planet that blew itself up and cracked itself open like a molten egg. Despite this, it somehow still lives on, and the molten liquid seeping out of the core makes for a fine industrial catalyst... until it has all leaked out, that is!!


bulgaroctonus discovered the Spoctopus! This ancient beast is a mystery to everyone, but bulgaroctonus is soon to discover all of its secrets. Does bulgaroctonus own the Spoctopus or does the Spoctopus own bulgaroctonus? Who can say for sure...



News
Star-lanes have been discovered among the sector! Surprisingly they look like large red dashed lines running through space, how did we not see them before? Travel is only possible between planets linked by these red lines.
The Spoctopus and the F.P.S.B. are not planets and that means they can move and go anywhere they want, though they are rather slow.

Once Sector E is claimed, the rituals may proceed...

EVENTS

Repeating Meme’s advisors whisper in their ear:
”You know, my Lord… Lilville has an incredible power. What if we were to gather all of the other planets in the sector at Lilville? Chrisp would become twice as large as it is now! Uhh… not that it is, uhh… it’s not small now, my Lord, you know, but…”

Sophy Wackles and Ignatius M. Meen have chartered a trade alliance between Utopioca and the Face Place Space Base. These two factions are experiencing unprecedented economic growth! Residents of many other sectors grumble about the new scarcity of luxury goods, with most of the supply being delivered straight to Utopioca. Perhaps Ignatius M. Meen should consider methods of expanding production…

The rumor mill churns! It seems that a flurry of mysterious allegations have been levied against The Spoctopus and bulgaroctonus. What are these allegations exactly? The News is working on getting to the bottom of this - but can we really trust a Spoctopus?

There is an Excess of Dogs in the sector, as they are not allowed on Planet Chrisp. “It just seems like they don’t want us.” Said one dog, who looked very sad.

Spaceweed Affictionados flock to Utopioca for the sector’s first Open Mic Night. Heistpeople around the galaxy catch a whiff of the first prize… a whole lot of Spaceweed from Sector Z, let's hope Utopioca has tight security. Lords of other planets grumble that their subjects seem to like Utopioca more than Home… what can be done about this??

Is everything that comes to Lilville doubled in size while on the planet, or just in the sector. If I ordered a large pizza from Sector O's renowned chefs would it be an extra large when it arrived?

Folks, this peak magma thing you keep hearing about planet Opps is just a total lie. Crazy plant huggers on the galactic internet trying to undermine good old-fashioned, hard working Ex-Sector industry. I can assure you we’re going to be open for business for centuries to come.

In fact, that’s why, today, I’m proud to announce the immediate availability for export of Volcano Kibble, the galaxy’s first ever exothermic dog food. It’s not just high in minerals, they’re also rendered easily digestible in its near-liquid state. You can even use it as an emergency heat source during a starship power failure! 10 percent of all profits will fund the Oppsian humane society’s dog rescue and training program, right here at Fields of Dessication National Park. Security, search and rescue, or loving companionship, we can handle it all (SHORT HAIRED BREEDS ONLY PLEASE)
