Unlike the empires, the cartels don't have historic bands of the faithful here on the D2. Mostly, this poll is intended as a tool for you. I hope it will help you see where the numbers are going, where the people are going, where the numbers are needed, and whom you might like to fly for. This poll allows you to change your vote should you decide you need to move.
You can go here for the background description of each Cartel: http://www.dynaverse.net/forum/index.php/topic,163366564.msg1122704005.html#msg1122704005
Yes, we need all eight cartels. The number Eight is a very nice number that can be cut to 4 during the second stage of the campaign, and then again cut to two in the third stage. No other number works as nicely.
There is no need for all eight to have equal numbers, since by the endgame we should have two very equitable sides squaring off against each other for the final victory. Remember, however, the more the numbers spread out among the eight, the more fun eveyrone will have. Don't worry aobut not being in the same cartel as all your favorite wingmen right at the start of the game. Odds are many of you will be in the same cartel by the time the party is over.
Leaders we have so far:
The Orion Cartel: Master of Orion, Lord of the Flies, FSD Skaren
Crimson Shadow (House Korgath):
Prime Industries: Praetor-in-Exile Tobin Dax and his four-headed Daemon Julin
The Camboro Cartel: One-eyed Risky the dancing Llama from scene 17
The Tiger Heart Cartel: The Dread Pirate Hexx
The Beast Raiders: Sixteen men on a Deadman's chest
The Syndicate: The nameless Villain
The Wyldefire Compact: D'Emon Rum on the Flying Dutchman

The First Stuckey has decreed that the Flying Circus shall fly as Beast Riders. While I think this is insane, he is the First Stuckey, and as such, I'll be forced to fly this Cartel, irregardless of how crazy it may seem.... ;)

Portraying Beast Raiders cartel as religious freaks are you? I say, that sounds wrong.
"Ni"
<Agave looks back over his shoulder> "Hush, they'll hear you!"
"Ni"
"NO, NO, NO. Be quiet back there"
"NI..........NI..........NI..........NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII <cough, cough, mumble> NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK"
"Oh, all right, I'll tell them."
We, of the Flying Circus, formally known as the Knights Who Say "Ni...."
"Ni"
"Well, some of us anyway."
"I'm here to proclaim that all of your treasure WILL BE OURS! As pirate raiders (of a beastly sort) we shall capture all your goodies and re-distribute them to our liking. Try not to resist too much as this will cause us to spank you endlessly around this galactic quagmire of ours."
"Ni!"
"And, yes, of course, say NI to you, or Ekky-ekky-ekky-ekky-z'Bang, zoom-Boing, z'nourrrwringmm, or even the occasional Aaaaarrrrrrrrgghhh"
Be afraid, be very afraid.

How about we give you a shruberry and you all go away... ;D

"Ni!"
...and no, that parrot on my shoulder is NOT dead! Arrrrrrrgh.....Ni!

Well I see that Hexx has got his Cartel together ;D

Sorry to hear that you be recieving me boarding maties soon Padre.....I had hoped you would forsake the frocking cloth and fly for a real cause......Power, Wealth, and the ability to weild both at will.
I still likes the first answer to what is best in life though....."Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of thier yoemen....err....women.
Thank you for you comment about me in another thread. I don't feel I rated it, but thank you just the same!
Ohhh.....forgot one thing. Which cartel is it that I'll be flying for? My boarding parties will explain it all to you........AARRRGGHHH!
-
I should make this official...
I've been accepted (hired) by Prime Industries. Stand and deliver, or the devil he may take you...
-
I will be flying for the The Wyldefire Compact.
On the bridge of Skaren's Flagship a report comes in from Security...
Lieutenant Wetpants,.. "Captain, we have discovered a spying device. On deck, C a Horned Denebulan Devil Fly was found to carrying a nano technology eavesdropping device."
Captain Skaren,.. "Arrgg, can't trust a soul, best relay that the spy on the Clan leaders Flagship go dormant for a time, he may be onto us! Keep alert crew, for anymore of those Demonic Fly Devices. Also yellow alert we are nearing the Wyldefire rally point, better yet RED alert, we can always say we detected a strange anomaly nearby!"
Battle Stations! Battle Station!

Bump!
Looks like three cartels are off the ground, but we still need more in the others. We especially need Orion and Syndicate members.
Orion is in the center, wealthier section of the galaxy. The Syndicate is in the more sparsely populated north east section of the map, but has lots of room to spread out in. (Yeah, I need to get a map graphic up. I built one yesterday, then it mysteriously vanished!) Both groups have the distinct characteristic of thinking they are better than everyone else.
Surely there are some of you out there who think you are better than everyone else?

Hexx already took TigerHeart. ;D
-
We seem to have lost our one Korgath player, and still have no leadership for the Orion Cartel, House Korgath, or the Syndicate.
Come on guys, let's rattle some cages. We really need at least two or three in each cartel.
-Herr Burt

And remember, even if you pirate group does not do well in the first week, it will be folded into another group at the end of the week and that will help balance teams out. Then we get balanced again at the end of the second week. I love it.

..
What heppens after I have a lovely week flying by myself with no one whining or crying or screaming over TS.
Does this mean I'm going to have to absorb one of the inept cartels into mine?
-
Wow, Hexx got a warning ;D. Will Skaren get one too? will I :huh:, I guess I missed Hexx's.
-

Nah. mine's a warning to Frey & t00l not to mess with me.
They cried like babies for a bit, but they know what will happen to them.
-
There are 3 cartels that don't have anyone flying in them.
Do I need to join one of them?
Anne
PS Kissy, Kissy!!!

I tried for a warning to up my Bad Ass reputation, but allas I guess I do not have it in me.
I tried joking insulting someone but it failed miserably.
Arggg.

You could be one of their overlords and then watch all the guys migrate to your cartel. ;)

Arrrrghh Matey -
This is a hard one for me and I've not actually cast a vote. I like the idea of Prime, though I could also do Yakuza 8) Offhand I don't know enough about their heavy weapons loadouts which is a factor for me. I'd fly Korgath, but I'm so very very very often a KLinK it might be nice....
Biggest factor though is the timing is bad for me. The Mrs. and I have some vacation time and are going on several small trips up until Memorial Day. After that I'll be "regular" again :D While I'm hoping to release a version of my "fun" server not long after that, I definitely want to get in on this one. I guess I'll see what's still open in between my trips and try and fly a few in advance of MD...

Or you could join Hexx's team. God knows he needs looking after.
By the way, the Orion Cartel (the one HQ'd in Fed space, and with the richest starting position) is one of those still available.

Several others have also stated what Cartel they will fly with.
It's just hard to pick out so few names amoung all the others. ;)
-
Of the cartels that need help, which are fed-like?
And what race are the others like?
I'm assuming that they mirror the basic races.
Anne
Kissy Kissy XX

Orion is the most Fed-like.
-
I'd like to apply for the Korgath Cartel. The D6 ROCKS, baby. It takes real chutzpah to fly one. Sissies.

You can't tell,due to the size of the pic, but the parrott (Polly Roger) has matching eye patch and scars on her cheek.

Replied to your PM... sign me up for Prime. :police:

<runs around in a circle>
I don't know where to go!!!!
Everyone is gonna take off without me and I don't know where to go!!!!
Oh, why couldn't they just do a draft!!!!
<starts biting her nails>
Oh, wait!!!
<starts biting Polly Roger's nails>
What will happen if the cartels are unbalanced!!!
What will happen if some cartels don't have anyone flying for them!!!!
WE'RE DOOMED!!!!!!!!!
<Polly Roger mimics: WE'RE DOOMED!!!!!!!!>
SHUT UP, BREAKFAST!!!!
-
I'm sure that your welcome to fly with anyone. Why don't you look at the cartel profiles again and see which one(s) appeal to you and sign up?
-
I have, I have!!!!!
If I go with the ones that just have one person in them then after I kill them I will be in charge!!!
I don't want to be in charge!!!
If I go to the ones with many bodies then the others will be loney!!!
I can't have that either.
Polly Roger: she's insane
SHUT UP, CANNON FODDER!!!
-
...that leaves the 2 cartels with no one...take one of those and you'll have no one to kill and no one to be in charge of. :)
On a more interesting note, why don't you and Alphageek team up and you ladys can show us guys how it should be done? She has signed onto Korgath.

Hmmmm.....

No, no. I've instituted the EVE clone feature, except I've made all the clones free. After you kill your leader the first time you can do it over and over and over again!
What fun!

As I will plundering for the empire of 'ME' I'll wait until I decide on a ship, then choose a race accordingly... but don't be mistaken because of my ship- everyone will be a target.
Muahahaha, hows that for a 'pirate' attitude ?

Would it be too late for me to fly Syndicate? ;D

Not at all. The sun never sets on the reach of our greedy arms. But if you don't hurry, I'm going to take all the rich treasure and most of the good women.

Bump for all the new Overlords. By the way, you lot might want to get me some info on your trade routes, home ports, etc.
Also, if you think your Overlordship might come to an untimely end come Monday, besst to go ahead and spread the love of that 3,000 pp bounty stash. After all, Hanged pirates can't pay.
