Discordian Cargo Cult is an aesthetic facade of blind creativity within Shartak. It also an official game clan, open to both Native and Outsider characters. Its goals are only communicated to clan members on a need-to-know basis.

The Roules

The Absolutely Mountainless Islet has been claimed as Discordian Cargo Cult territory; any character who ventures onto the islet is hereby advised of the Roules:

  1. Join Us or Die!
  2. We say "Mango!!!!!" instead of "Fnord!"
  3. Do not kill players unless they are in a clan we are at war with, unless you

have a pretty good reason.

  1. If you know the difference between "uncountably infinite" and "dense" in set theory, please tell us
  2. If at first you don't succeed, squint and look at it sideways.

The Sub-Bylaws

  1. Join the Royal Expedition or Live!
  2. Elephants are harder to kill than parrots
  3. The follwing rule does not like mushrooms on pizza
  4. The preceding rule has bad breath but knows how to dance
  5. If a Mango tree falls in the jungle and no one is there to collect the fruit, why does it say Mango!!!!!?

What's Going On

We are at war with the Royal Expedition because they think the Islet is called Shark Mountain, just because there are Mango trees there. Well the True name is "The Absoloutely Mountainless Islet". So we are having a civil war with them. Civil, as in "pardon me, I'm going to hack you with this machete, terribly sorry, old chap." Also civil as in "let's not get into any hostilities on the mainland: skirmishes on the Islet itself only."

A Clarification

We are also at war with the Mountaineers, because they refuse to use the Official Discordian Document Numbering System. This war is not at all civil, and any Mountaineer seen anywhere in the game should be attacked at once!

Also, just because we are at war with the RE, does not mean we prohibit RE members from joining us. We only say that RE members who are NOT Discordian Cargo Cultists should stay off the Islet. Or die. Or give us a lifetime supply of Mango-a-Roni, the Western Shartak treat!

Membership

If you wish to join the Discordian Cargo Cult, do so by adding "Discordian Cargo Cult" to your profile. Then add your name with a link to your profile to the list. Mango!

Members of the Discordian Cargo Cult:

Honorary Members Who May or May Not Have Accepted or Even Become Aware of the Honor Honorary Members are not involved in the war so don't kill them or you are a war criminal!!!!!
