As a sanctioned ACG game, I've been preparing to place all of SPQR into its own sub-forum of honor in Armchair Attacks. It will be the only thing within that sub, just like all of the AA campaigns, thus unencumbered by its falling into the WTTA historical thread que which increasingly makes all its components difficult to track. It will be credited as a WTTA game with link to this Forum. (As will the one sanctioned Napoleonics game be so credited to that forum as it is settled into its own sub-forum there, as well - which has yet to have its ribbons awarded)
IF there is to be any further SPQR, and in that the ribbon itself is not the point of the game, those that have already earned their SPQR ribbons will receive no more - but any new members which might participate can yet earn it. As I'm sure most will agree, we wear the ribbons as a campaign veteran & they shall not be dispensed as candy.
I will also reveal here that some of the truly worthy unsanctioned 'Citizens' Games we have seen will somehow be awarded in the future, but - in that thread postbit space is not unlimited & nobody earns a chest full of salad in but a few years - we are working on a means by which they may qualify for award, but not be visible beyond ones own profile Awards. Another option is a Community Gaming Ribbon - similar in configuration to the Modeling Ribbon, with device for multiple - that would be postbit visible. Please to let us keep working on that, mates... it is not only a decision, but a technical matter, thus possibilities are yet not fully realized as yet.

Aaaaah memory lane, here I come...
Now for me personally, this is a greater honor than the ribbon I'm wearing.
This is some great literature we all made. This is a part of US!
Let's not forget it...
Thank you very much for retrieving those thousands of posts and putting them ALL together!
What a time it was, what a time...

I'm reading up on the old posts too...some are just friggin funny! Especially in the Lamb
One episode that was forgotten but which is still good for a laugh, was when Karma got his butt kicked by the populist Furius, just outside of the Slaughtered Lamb
And of course Franczius' toothless lions and Cleitus' famous fermented fish...
I loved the interaction between Antonius/Karma and Furius...all fighting for superiority over the mob and the streets.
I also loved playing Furius

More like, Karma got his butt kicked by some of Furius' Goons...
But their not killing him allowed for Karmas flatulent demise at the Senate.
I'm happy that my knowing who Furius was, from the beginning, did not cause you to back off with his character...
Such happenstance could have dampened the wonderful dialog/exchanges that were much joy of the game.
All in all, I think that things seldom were predictable throughout...
With all attempts at adversarial puppetry, many did not actually dance to the strings of others as they so desired.
Much fun, my friend...
Very much fun, indeed!
