So I've decided to start Roleplaying a character in games. It took the other guys in my game a little bit to catch on, but now they are even replying a little in kind.
For instance in reply to a question about whether I in third place was going to attack the player with the largest fleet I replied.
"Am I to be your David against Goliath? I think not sir! You are the Spartan one here, victor in 5.5 days. I say good luck sir and cheers to your valiant effort. "
He actually responded
"Pardon my idiocy, sir. Thank you for the blessings, many in return. "
Yay!
