[link=http://boards.theforce.net/eu_community/b10194/28597281/p1/?292][b][color=red][hl=black]The EUC Sith Order[/color][/hl][/b][/link]: Masterminded and led by the newly re-elected Chancellor [b]Sinrebirth[/b], the Sith have stunned everyone by putting up decoy candidates to guarentee an electoral win for their side. The new chancellor has declared himself Dark Lord of the EUC and has appointed governors to run the various threads on his behalf. The Sith boast a roster of the EUC's most powerful and terrifying Force users and have an organized plan.

They are mounting a highly effective resistance movement that has spread quickly and has forced the Sith into action.

It can be thought of as a third faction, but only in the sense that it has yet to definitively choose a side: it has historic ties to individuals in the Sith movement, but it champions gallantry and civilized manners, so it dislikes ruling with a heavy hand and prefers to let the other threads carry on as they always has. Its main goal is prestige and preëminence, and that has put it in conflict with the Sith, who seek to rule all.

yes, the truth, finally

it's good to hear something other than the constant "all hail Emperor Sinrebirth" rubbish

 

All Hail Emperor Sinrebirth!

 

Yet another once-venerable institution hijacked by Rebel Propaganda.

We will make short work of this.

This is an affront to quality journalism everywhere.

 

The truth is that both sides are going against the exact thing they are trying to accomplish by bickering with each other.

It's quite amusing for us Templars to watch, actually.

 

What this is, ladies and gentlemen, is an attempt to unveil the truth: the machinations that led to our current state of tyranny. You will note that it is only those who have something to fear from the truth who scorn us.

*scoffs*

Truth? Lies! All lies! That's what this is!

 

You can quote me on this: If the Rebels would actually listen to what we are saying - to what our goals and the goals of the Emperor are - there would be no dissent and galactic peace would be achieved without unneccessary bloodshed. Instead, closemindedness is wreaking havoc across the Empire... and for naught.

 

Touche!

 

Yes, all we ultamitely wish for is peace. Our lord is a benevolent one, if you do not anger him with baseless accusations. For that is the truth you need to report. That the members of the rebellion are traitors who when things dont go exactly the way they want, they will try to overthrow the government, not careing about the consiquences. This reminds me of the CIS.

 

CIS? really now. be reasonable. all this reminds me of the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance of Luke's and Leia's time....but I suppose that's my opinion...

 

You're not alone ith that opinion of yours

You know, many of your goals don't bother me. It's more how the empire always achieves them.

 

Avoiding bloodshed bothers you?

 

I know better than to believe that's true my brainwashed friend.

Just look at Palpy and imagine how many people he killed.

 

even if that were true there's still the matter of putting leaders in place that will force people to accept the Empire's control....

 

Avoiding bloodshed? We never asked for bloodshed. Only for normal state of the EUCity that was promised in Sinre/LI campaign (unlike the Sith terror by the other side). But alas, we have been betrayed! That is the only truth!

 

But that is where you are show how you are misguided. It is your preconseived notion of the Empire which delude you. We are not lead by Palpatine, we are lead by Lord Sinre. It is you who has tried to overthrow the leagally elected leader of the EUC.

 

People elected him because of the plans for the future he stated in his campaign (a normal and stable life of the EUC) and to prevent the other side, the Sith, to take over the EUC. We have been deceived.

 

The Empire Empire is fine, but the Sith Empire is funny and unfortunately, our current problem.

 

rename? sounds like fun. i think the Rainbow Butt Monkeys has a nice ring to it.

 

Election Fraud Empowers Sith!

In an insidious move reminiscent of the long dead, unlamented Emperor Palpatine, Sinrebirth and his running mate The_Loyal_Imperial have made a declaration of empire within hours of winning the election for Chancellor of the EU Senate.

This is a complete invalidation of their campaign platform, which included such laudable goals as the History Project, the Force Adoptions Scheme, the EUC Adoptions Program, the EU Fanfic plotline, themed Tournaments, Summer Balls, and many more peaceful and beneficial visions and aims for the EU community. Free cookies and milk were also a part of their campaign pledges.

This reporter can only conclude that the Trojan Horse candidates Despised1 and Darth_Wanderguard embodied the true aims and goals of Chancellor Sinrebirth and Vice-Chancellor The_Loyal_Imperial. Already, Sith Governors have been imposed on the free peoples of the following fan clubs:

Sabre of the Kyp Durron Fan Club
RilwenShadowflame of the Twilight Templars
JEDI_TEEGIRLOO of the Corellian Fan Club
Despised1 of the Imperial Court
Darth_Sabith of the Hidden Orders
Lord_Vivec of the IK FC
SWBob of the NJO/LotF Fan Club
Rebecca_Daniels of the Wes Janson Fan Club
Darth_Wanderguard of the Jedi
DarthSorridom of the Church of Waru

The treacherous MarasFire has been declared Princess of the Kyp Durron Fan Club. There is even room in Chancellor Sinrebirth's administration for his former opposition Despised1, who serves as the BladeMaster.

Even in the darkest times, however, there is hope. Word has reached this reporter that TypoCelchu, Master_Kerayls, and s65horsey have taken a stand against tyranny and terror. Together they have formed the Galactic Forum Alliance to combat this evil and restore freedom and liberty to EUCity.

In these desperate times, we, the people of EUCity, must band together in support and unity to fight this enslaving menace. Against the will of the people, the reign of Emperor Sinrebirth cannot stand!

 

The tabloids make better news than this.
