It's also the sort of place were nothing ever happens, ever. The poeple like it that way, if they don't they get out of town and off the planet ASAP. The governments, both planetary and local, also try hard to ensure that nothing happens unless they want it to. Most of the time they succeed.     If you thought Shirgegge was proud to host the K'kree, then Untergard has left pride and moved into full-scale Megalomania with their new found temporary importance. Banners, Posters and Holovids are everywhere - it's also fair to say that the mini-tourist boom is making the locals a lot of money, a lot of new barns, tractors and off-world holidays are going to be bought off the back of this. You pay well over the odds for a hastily produced and not very good breakfast.     At first sight local security forces seem practically invisible, they might seem a bit overwhelmed and outnumbered, but generally speaking the Shirgeggeans must more or less learn from birth not to cause trouble. However, after watching for a bit longer you see that plenty of locals appear to have been deputised as extra security personel and crowd control, albeit it in their own clothes with just an armband.     Picking up one of the leaflets and glancing at the map shows thatThe K'kree themselves have taken over several acres of waste ground to the west of the town, some of this is open grassland, some is large open, spacious, temporary K'kree tents and the rest - the parts that mostly see Human traffic - is locally hired and built tents.OOC:    You know the small town where the original Rambo took place? Well it's like that, but a lot flatter, surronded by fruit trees, and has the equivalent of a County Show taking place by it</blockquote>
