The Amazing Sanction Race


Logan

Recommended Posts

Personally, I'm all for blaming TOOL. This just proves that they're the ones who secretly control the Cyberverse.

you know too much :ph34r: (jk :P) but the curse is a real mystery, tbh, i never learned how we got it, it's just there.

Like the next largest nuclear war in history? I'll go ahead and blame you guys for it. We all need a fall guy tongue.gif[

that's not nice, for all we know, the next great war could happen when tC gets into a civil war (chances of that happening are 0%)

though the curse isn't too effective against sanctioned alliances from what i can tell (unless there's a big war, like right now, then it can affect anyone; the curse could be even stronger once we're sanctioned :D)

nice update btw.

All it means is that far more of your nations are bill-locked than ours (hence their strength is not updating as they are not doing transactions, as opposed to ours who are still making transactions, even if they are losing strength). The full losses are impossible to properly analyze while a war is ongoing, but the normal trend is that the losses of those being stomped are underrepresented, while those of the 'stompers' are shown in full. I expect this is the case here.

Do I really have to repeat this every war?

I would wager there are ZERO nations bill locked in MK, ZERO.

I mean heck, we managed to UN-bill lock a nation with 200 days of bills yesterday (yes, 200).

So I find your claims... dubious at best. MK has been preparing for this very scenario for literally over a year, it wasn't a huge secret who was going to come a mushroom hunting.

To be fair Diskord, Seerow's bills couldn't've been very high. Even at 200 days, and especially now that he decommed most of his improvements.

Actually it doesn't. Point is you've lost barely more infra than we have, even though we've lost more NS. Infra losses as recorded by the alliance statistics aren't affected by bill-lock, while NS is. By your logic, MK should be losing more infra and less NS compared to NPO. It's the other way around. Which either means more of your (the "stomper") nations are in bill-lock, or other factors are at play. My guess is it's a combo of both, though I don't think many on either side are bill-locked yet.

Our nuclear launches are also rather distorting the NS losses too - I lost several thousand NS just from emptying my silos into my opponents, and since many of us are in six wars, due to the way game mechanics work we're simply launching more nukes. For example, I've only eaten six nukes, but launched 23.

Praytell..... how do you get somebody with 200 days of unpaid bills in the first place? :unsure:

I am gone for a few weeks, and a huge war broke out! It took me a while to read all the pages!

again, thanks for doing this gopher!

I feel your pain. :( I was away from the 10th to the 15th myself; upon my return I checked the wiki to see if anything had happened, what do I find? "BLEU-Continuum War goes nuclear." :blink:

Yonder glorious brilliance of a Sanction Race update shines upon us like the setting sun, with one last eruption of illumination before setting beyond the snow-covered peaks to rest in the bosom of the heavens for the night.

Commentary

Despite all the crazy stuff that happened today, I first want to bring special attention to the Green Protection Agency. Why you ask? Not for being today's Biggest Gainer. Not for coming within microns of passing The Order of Light. I mention them because they were one of only five alliances who managed to gain today, including NATO, Invicta, LoSS, and the Global Democratic Alliance - with those last two joining the gain column by only 0.01. Of course, the New Polar Order's five-point nosedive is something that I never expected to see, and it only accounts for three passes in our very crowded Passes of the Day chart today. Nueva Vida loses more than a point and a half, and barring an act of Admin, will be removed from the race tomorrow. The TOOL Curse finally gets fed up with the Mushroom Kingdom after the fourth time, sending them down a point to snuggle right up alongside Echelon, whose pass of them I would have missed if it weren't for this sentence. The New Pacific Order takes a large hit again today, as they (take your pick) are utterly destroyed / collect taxes. The Legion also continues their drop, losing half a point today in their latest cycle of downward movement.

Today's special shoutout goes to Old Guard: Today, Cybernations blew up the equivalent of you - exactly 10.51 points.
