Winters: Cycle 266: Things You Oto Know

I’d like to take a moment to say two things before you continue reading below:

1 - The puns and jokes below - much like my waistline this far into quarantine - are a bit of a stretch.

2 - Thank you to Brantford for taxiing me around the bubble in his fleet carrier last cycle because I was too lazy to jump everywhere myself.

In recent news: Federal Commanders - in a completely unplanned, “hold my beer and watch this sweet trick” moment - saw the opportunity to put the pulse disruptors to ol’ Patty in Operation Oto Empiric Asphyxiation (Honestly, we really didn’t plan this beforehand, and they left me to pick the name) in an attempt at freeing our old control system. Between our Patty Party and some other less-important undermining, last cycle saw Federal commanders Oto-matically do a little over one million merits of pew. If you've visited the "holdmybeer" subreddit, you know how these things end.

Unfortunately, a minor miscalculation meant that we fell just short of knocking Oto free from her Imperial chains. Whether Patreus realized our folly or just got lucky, they took the win in this battle and knocked the wind right Oto our Thursday morning sails.

Most importantly: last cycle saw me take ANOTHER FLAWLESS DEMOCRATIC ELECTION VICTORY AS YOUR COMMUNITY MANAGER while our haulers pushed two expansions (one of which was medium-pad only). I paid so much money to change those “no” votes, y’all. So much money.

Elsewhere in the galaxy: Tabloids across the bubble posted pictures of a slightly plump Li Yong-Rui at home drinking Lavian Brandy in his underwear. When asked for comment, the Sirius Corp. spokesperson said, “You know you’ve done exactly the same since the Thargona Quarantine began.” All of the other powers simultaneously replied with “Same” except Archon Delaine, who grumbled about being an essential employee.

This Oto-Worldly update brought to you by u/Bullet_Bait, and by Oto. We tried, but missed it by that much. Good Game everybody! Also, Empiric is not a mis-guided reference to the Empire: it’s a long-stretch reference to this op being done by the seat of our pants. I needed something close to “erotic” for the puns. Obviously. And now, u/CMDR_Brantford will post the actually useful information below!
