In light of the tumultuous events of the past 24 hours the Mushroom Kingdom has taken stock of its options and has decided that there is but one course of action for us to take.

Effective immediately we are announcing that we have beaten ODN in our race to 500,000 tech! Legally this time too!

HI MPOL!

As of about 5:30 PM EST today:

For reference, the initial stats (from September 22nd):

ODN's Tech: 447,029
MK's Tech: 400,969

It was a close race, as close as a race between a tortoise and a hare can get. They put up a valiant effort, and for that they are to be commended. They were honorable in our race and have been honorable in their defeat. For that we saLUEte you, ODN.

...

Right, so it turns out one of our members (a rather tech-heavy chap at that) retired to DT not long after this announcement was drafted... and back below 500,000 tech we go.

ODN, round 3?

Ah the sweet taste of victory with a drizzle of squeezed orange.

We're still going to win.

Good race ODN, you actually motivated me to buy tech.

[Vilien]

The Moralist Front has been happy to support MK in this glorious race.

[Hombre de Murcielago]

Well done shrooms! Congratulations to both alliances. No one loses when everyone gets more tech... except ODN, they lost.

[alpreb]

Onwards to the one million tech club!

[itseZe]

So how often have we both gone over 500k now? 3 times in total?

[Commisar Gaunt]

Finally, the victory that everyone knew was inevitable

[i surge i]

Yeahhhhh hows that ODN

We'll get you this time, we swears!

Also, we both really need to stop losing members, otherwise this announcement would have came out a month ago. Next time, lets do a contest to see who can import the most.

Seriously, anything but this xD

I am ready for round three, and we will certainly win. It does not count as a victory if you immediately slip right back under the mark :colbert:


Also, I have not been saLUEted in a very long time...

Onwards to 500k tech! for the third time!

It does, a race involves reaching a finish line, not reaching it and then staying there forever.

Nice one MK.

[President Obama]

MK may have beaten them in a race to get tech, but ODN is crushing MK in activity rate.

Because of this, congrats to both alliances on their respective victories.

Congrats MK

But this race was clearly optional
