I've been watching these two for about a week now, because they've been going back and forth and are pretty similar across a whole pile of categories - only separated by a tenth of a point in score, three nations, 700 ANS, 70 nukes, 1600 tech, etc. And it makes me wonder who would win in a one-on-one battle between the two, with no treaties or outside help whatsoever.
Only a couple of major differences I will point out:
Activity - Nordreich is at 86% activity, while NEW is only at 71%. Wo
The first statistics for Survivor 8 will be collected on November 30th; two days from now. This makes December 1st the first day you can be eliminated.
Since the RL 8th season of Survivor was an All-Star Edition, it makes sense that this should be as well. The contestants for this season will be anyone who finished in the top three of the previous Survivor editions. The format of this will take us back to Season Three, where FAN and NATO fought it out - Last Man Standing style - in a fierce
With five days remaining until the end of the month, I figured that it was time for a last-minute status report on how our top 38 alliances have fared so far this month.
Also, a reminder that any alliances surpassing 6% growth in the end-of-month update will be entered into a draw for a special prize.
September 30, 2010 - October 26, 2010
1 [694] (+24) Mostly Harmless Alliance : 63.67 --> 65.36 (+1.69 / 2.65%)
2 [505] (-5) New Pacific Order : 56.86 --> 58.61 (+1.75 / 3.08%)

I was messing around with my ASR program yesterday, and now have a way to quickly & easily make monthly reports (the first step towards an eventual goal of holding all historical ASR statistics digitally). I figured that I'd share the results so far for October and introduce a competition / rewards program that I hope will become a regular thing.
As you can see, I've included a percentage gain with these statistics. At the end of each month, every ASR alliance who gains more than 6 percen
All-Stars? WTF? Oh fine...
So here I was looking for the logo for the RL eighth season of Survivor, and I find out that it happened to be an All Star edition. Well, you know what that means - I guess only alliances who did well in the past are going to be allowed into this one.
But those are just details. The reason I made this entry (originally) was to get a sense of what type of competitions people were in favour of. I've put two questions at the top (I had a third but forgot it);
That poll up there should be pretty self-explanatory. Now that we've been doing Survivor competitions for a year or so, I figured that I might as well get some feedback as to what forms are most popular. Feel free to vote and explain why you like each one, or post new ideas of your own.
Also - I've been trying to think of some statistics-based thingy for maybe the first 16 or so alliances under the Add Line. This could be some Survivoresque competition (maybe even a testing zone for new idea
So in light of an additional entry for the World Cup Logo, I've taken Aquilos' version (as the top vote-getter from the first poll), and included it in a poll with Seipher Caim's version. Thanks to Alfred von Tirpitz for his version as well.
Vote.

As voting for the 19th High Council of the Multicolored Cross-X Alliance draws to a close, a more accurate picture is being formed of who will form the government of that alliance over the next two months.

Peoples of the Cyberverse,
With the announcement earlier tonight of a defense pact between Ragnarok and Polaris, it has come to my attention that Penguin (hater of cute puppies) has attempted to unceremoniously remove me from my rightful position as Imperial Regent; opting instead to replace me with the pretender Dajobo.
The Emperor of Polaris holds no power under the Charter of that alliance to dismiss the Imperial Regent; he merely holds the power to appoint one. Therefore, I hereby denounc
Survivor: Cybernations - Season 5
As questions about a new season of Survivor were recently brought forward, I figured that I'd canvass for some opinions here rather than cluttering up the Sanction Race thread (plus, I can't exactly add a poll there). My desire is to hold off on starting this up again until everyone's finished with their wars (so finish off your wars or else you don't get any Survivor), but I don't want us to hold our breath forever either.

Statistics for the Sanction Race's Year-End Update are located here on CN Forums. The following is added commentary and explanations for a number of the alliance awards.

Most Successful Alliance of 2009 - Global Alliance and Treaty Organization
From holding a measly seven and a half points a year ago, the Global Alliance and Treaty Organization has gained over 18 points in the past 12 months, and has increased in score nearly threefold during 2009,
Sanction Race
Holy cow MHA, nice half-point gain you got there today. But you're still 10 points behind us!
The Gremlins are less than a quarter-point behind GGA. There will be a pass there within two weeks.
Also, the New Polar Order will pass both GGA and TOOL by the end of the week. If not sooner.
I'm thinking of introducing a Challenge Line for WTF/RnR/TDE/Lgn/NADC. Just wanna see what happens with TDE's merger with XF first, as to whether to include them or not. 13.50 or fight, anyo
Gopher's Blog
Hey all, welcome to my CN blog, courtesy of the all-powerful admingod, glorious provider of tech and infra, who we solemnly thank for our daily tax collections. Amen.
Other than that, I'm going to try and use this as a (daily) reflection on the Sanction Race, almost like the commentary, adding a few predictions here and there, as well as some thoroughly random thoughts about what's going on with CN or IRC.
Hope you all enjoy (and that I remember to stick with this).
