Commentary

Most changes are pretty mild today, with few big losses or gains. Ragnarok gets Biggest Gainer as they get another merge. Lets hope all these mergers don't cause an implosion. New Polar Order continues to fall, though at a slower rate than normal, with Mostly Harmless Alliance and Grand Global Alliance also losing significant points. New Pacific Order and Mushroom Kingdom both start to recover as they start to rebuild after nuking each other to pieces for almost two weeks, while the TOOL curse is apparently taking it's time switching from MK to Green Protection Agency. Old Guard is getting close the add line, missing by 0.08 today. The :nuke:Global Radiation Level:nuke: seems to have plateaud, but will take several weeks to start declining. I much prefer the name Cold War to describe this war, which is why I use it here today.

These 3 are wrong.

Should be:

9 Viridian Entente: 24.98 --> 24.90 (-0.8)

10 FOK: 24.45 --> 24.44 (-0.01)

12 The Phoenix Federation: 21.14 --> 21.15 (+0.01) [0]

hopefully VE will be getting back on track soon, rebuilding ftw

no worries, 6+ ghosts that left our aa have since properly applied so they should be accepted soon, and we will jump back up.

Isn't this a little bit to early?

Mid afternoon? It's been done around that time in the past, earlier IIRC.

Maybe. And by the way, it's the 28th. ;)

2) Add/Drop Lines are based on TPF

Fixing. My laptop was dying and I had class so I didn't have time to proof-read.

3) The "Cold War" was cold because it didn't go nuclear. This, by comparison, has done so in spades.

My reasoning was that in both nukes were prominent. Also the name "Cold War" also can allude to NpO, the fact that the Cold War was a disjumbled mess like this war has been with several different sides, the significance of ideology (Vox Populi vs. NPO), and the split between two sides that had been allies (NpO and NPO.) It might not be terrific, but it's better than "War of the Coalition" as "The Coalition" doesn't really represent anything.

Three things.

1) Too early.

2) Add/Drop Lines are based on TPF

3) The "Cold War" was cold because it didn't go nuclear. This, by comparison, has done so in spades.

The timing is just right. Staying up until 3:00 and falling asleep at work because I waited for update is not a very wise thing.

And besides, he didn't forget any FOK passes :D

Well, seeing as the update is meant to reflect a 24 hour change - and preferably as close to game update to update as possible - it seems logical that the sanction race should be updated closer to midnight Bob time. Of course, it's impossible to be perfect with this; besides, not everyone is willing to wait up that long for some numbers. It seems eight o'clock is a reasonable time, but no one's gonna complain if it gets done early or a little later.

I think it's great having it done pre-update as that's when a lot of people are on, and it gives those who don't get on until update a chance to see it too. If it was done right at update then not as many people would view it until next morning, which would be less exciting.
