Knights of the Grail

Outstanding nations of warriors.

"Like I had so many protectorates, treaties, and other agreements and we had a fun time because we made them all super silly and didn't take ourselves seriously! And these days you have to pretty much play hopscotch, pledge your life, and give away all your cookies just to get a protectorate and then they drop you like it's hot 🤣" - Cellochik, April 13, 2024 HOPSCOTCH Death Eaters Protectorate Agreement In order to foster development, expansion, and sanctuary to those seeking its help, the Knights of the Round Table pledges the following protection and support to the Death Eaters.

For the Knights of the Round Table Knights of the Grail, Knight-King Lollerobot, Knight-Senator Mordred, Knight-Heir Ratified, April 18, 2024 For the Death Eaters Signed in no particular order (except for coolness) 1. Felix Malfoy: My father will hear about this! Unwillingly Admitted Alliance Leader, suspected reroll of at least 12 dozen entirely unrelated people (including cello), and poker of CN wasps' nests (DO NOT PRESS THE BIG RED BUTTON!) 2. UnitedBishop: Claw collector, notorious muggle warlord, and entirely unaware that DE is a Harry Potter based alliance. 13. Cello-chik: Supreme Penguin Ruler of all things cupcakes, distractions, and shiny things-- OOH, A SQUIRREL! & unofficial alliance abuelita. Has enough attitude for +10 members. 14. JStheGuy: DE's only actually CN knowledgeable member (aside from Apple) and collector of all things shiny. Also, probably one of Felix's 12 dozen multis. 15. Dvamwi: First Year Wizard, Felix's 79th reroll, eater of all the alliance's pizza 23. Voldemort23: The Dark Lord/He Who Shall Not Be Named (but curiously is still named here anyway, along with his 7 Horcruxes). Signed, 23 members of Death Eaters Alliance (and now Felix can finally get the flag he wanted!)

The most practical tactics in this round have been to: #1. Pass a giant yarn-ball-of-tech, or even giant 3 yarn-balls-of-tech to one account, flatten an opponent, and pass the tech along. #2. Have a larger gang to create #1.

Did you throw a gauntlet at his feet, and did he pick it up?

We have memories of working with NPL diplomats named Irish Republic and Houston of Larsden. That was 11 years ago. Welcome back. May you proliferate.

We would like to thank the lawyers at Cadlore & Chocolate for preparing and recording this document.

Congratulations! Everyone, be sure to stop at our dungeon gift shop on the way out of the Forum. May I recommend the rich Corinthian leather?

In view of the complaints of the schemes, exploits, and abuse of Foreign Aid made here... https://forums.cybernations.net/topic/135456-the-church-of-admin-lives/ ...disable Foreign Aid altogether in CN-TE Round 66.

I will suggest disabling foreign aid altogether in the next tournament. This will eliminate all the schemes, exploits, and abuse.

A Holy Crusade? A tip of the chalice to both.

ZippoTM makes lighters for everyone. Enjoy the cookout.

Pass the plumbs, please.

Our troubadours approve of this Post Gregorian Superchant.

No thanks. Smitty is not the arbiter of nomenclature. The Emperor of New Pacific Order might be.

No, the most important difference is that CLAWS offers sugarplums at Christmas.
