A good start with the whole planet. They probably all have their own versions of "Snake-Oil Salesman" so he knows enough to avoid that.
But we haven't heard any of the objections yet. Do they look funny and smell weird too? Has anyone in the audience had to toss their cookies yet?
"We'd like to invite you to join our 'we're so cool' club, but also we're coming over to your house whether you want us to or not." - How I understood that.
Does "offer YOU ALL membership" mean that countries can join separately from other countries? All the existing members seem to be solar systems, rather than subdivisions. Also, "offer" sounds friendly, but "our fleet... above your planet" sounds like an invasion!
А почему после такого мува всем странам не отправить ядерные ракеты в ксеносов? Ладно, шучу.
Просто не вижу смысла в альянсе - против кого? Альянс подразумевает единство против кого-то. НАТО это против России в военной сфере. Евросоюз это экономический союз против Брикс и США. Люди не войдут в это союз пришельцев просто НИКОГДА. Слишком гордые и жадные. Люди сами хотят всеми управлять, а превратиться в страну третьего мира на карте галактики, это удар ниже пояса.
... just last week, I joked about the Milky Way's Scutum-Crux Arm ...
Soooo, what's the yellow/orange outline on the Near 3kpc Arm for? Intentionally matching the color of "Azinarsi", or ... ?
("Still, "Pangalactic Alliance" is a tad boastful, gentlebeings ...)
Those are the Smi'Tar territories. I haven't realized they're the same color as Azinarsi ^^"
... pardon me for being a pain in the nebula, but unless we rule someone of the listed out (besides the humans), wouldn't the Alliance be "a union of eight species" ... ?
Azinarsi aren't in the Alliance.
Newscaster: "In today's news, Major storms in Tasmania, The U.N. announces the arrival of space aliens, Gas prices at an all time high, and Pyrophobic fireman fired. Weather at 11."
more like : "From the Presidents Office : All citizens on the planet ordered not to look up the entire next month"
As in, so the populace won't see the alien ships at all? Or as in, so they won't see them get shredded by our space debris?
"... wait, you mean you had a couple functional satellites among all that debris we deorbited for you?"
[president turns away from screen to address his sidekick]
"... is it too late to tell our citizens not to look at their TVs, either?"
