We’re proud to announce that we placed the last brick into the Wall of Absolute Fame on Games for Aliens website.
It is done and it is beautiful, and it stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific, separating Canada from Mexico. “Wow!” You want to say, “Wait a minute! Canada is not neighboring Mexico on any sides of the continent.”
At which, I reply: “It is in our scenario, considering the US latest reactions last week.” The wall built on the US-Mexican border went up along the Pacific and the Atlantic, then east and west along the Great Lakes, and closed right through the city of Chicago. The builders were ordered to keep the Wall straight, so they divided Chicago into two parts that will be known as Chicago by the Lake and Inner Chicago. Chicago as a whole will be known in history as the American Berlin.
Chicago by the Lake will become an independent city-state, acting as a safe passage for smugglers of black market goods from Canada into the US. The rest of the stuff will just be thrown over the Wall by the evilly polite Canadians. Obviously, the maple syrup bottles will shatter upon contact with the rocks on the other side, but that won’t stop them. Oh, no. To make matters worse, they will even throw bottles of Crown Royal whiskey.
Anyway, the Wall of Absolute Fame is done, it is there, and it is beautiful. And it has YOUR name on it. Go on and check it out and tell your friends how big a dictator you are. They already know it, but it is always nice to confess.
We’re also thinking of writing on the lakeside of the Wall in Chicago by the Lake, the names of those who smuggled successfully people on our backing list. They would be forever and ever remembered as the heroes who stood up against the oppression. Who helped build the Resistance through the game of Absolutism!
Vive les gamers! Vive les backers!
