I must object to the line about the [[Paramount Queen]] of -7 [[EC]]. In that article, she is clearly said to have been Xuriental. It was her being covered in [[User:Morbus Iff|brown fluid]] that so shocked Ghyllian public opinion. --[[User:Jcowan|John Cowan]] 14:31, 17 May 2005 (EDT)

−	:Just reiterating what I've mentioned on IRC: I don't see this as a problem. If we establish that you are a book seller, and then I run up and cover you in creame pie, take a picture, and say you're a baker to "prove" my article in Aliens Everywhere, that doesn't make you a baker - it merely makes rationale for my delusional rantings. Alternatively, if she was born in the Xurient of alien parents, she'd be both from Down There and the Xurient. And, ultimately, this meshes up with the game description of ''introduc[ing] new facts that shade the interpretation'' - if the brown fluid is from Down There, and a person was covered in it, it doesn't take a lot of conspiratorial leaps for a nut (nutty enough to write for AE) to put "two and two together" and write an article that was scandalous enough to make her lose the crown. (Incidentally, these would be good in-game comments if the original AE text isn't address/modified.) --[[User:Morbus Iff\|Morbus Iff]] 14:39, 17 May 2005 (EDT)

	Another point: you use Daydream Believer like a proper name, but in [[Egron]] it appears to be the name of a role or category of people.
