Forest steals Zhil's fleet

Originally posted onto the Pa-Forums here.

Some people have speculated on why 1up's average score is not as high as they expected. Some have even posited that maybe it's down to a lack of quality in some of our members. The following irc log may go some way toward offering an explanation. The log is from a 1up channel used by our Military Officers and HCs. It has been edited slightly to remove coordinates and material irrelevant to the main content - but is otherwise unchanged. When it happened it had all of our command staff (except one) in stitches. Enjoy. Synthetic_Sid

First I started off in a half decent galaxy but exil HC decided to roid me and exile me, so there I was in a dead gal, all orange with under 100 roids. I decided to farm attackers ships on the gal, to teach em a lesson for bashing. Forest

All was going great. One day in a 1up room...
