Tremendous appreciation to all of those responsible for this unified forum! In celebration, the bakers of Bloxhelm have developed a delicious new treat, available to all who visit: The Triple Rose Delight cupcake

As an ex-Legionnaire and long-ago ORPPLE Exchange member, I am deeply saddened to see this come to pass. Flags shall fly at half-mast all over Bloxhelm this day, in bereavement at the death of a true symbol of friendship.

Huzzah! Congratulations to the new Dame and Knights of the Order of the Black Rose. May you all serve with grace and honor.

Congratulations on the formation of your alliance. I must admit to a point of confusion, however. Your posted charter says That seems contradictory. Tech Raiding is condoned ("to overlook or forgive an offence or wrongdoing") and no form of aggression will be conducted? Perhaps you mean that Tech Raiding is condemned?

If this deal is to be completed within the next few days, I would like to be a Seller. Sparqs of Bloxhelm

Offer for standard Tech Deal sent.

Yes, it's against the rules.

$3 Million in Foreign Aid submitted to PingPong. ~Sparqs

Congratulations to The Legion on their 3rd Anniversary! If someone has some cake, er... sorry... caek, I brought some special Bloxhellion Birthday Candles:

While determining whether I should decommission my navy after falling under the land limit, I read the About Navy section, where it says As written, with "Naval Attack operations" called out, the limit exception would seem to refer specifically to Naval Attack, as opposed to Blockades or Battle Support. Thus my reading is that once a nation falls below 1,000 land, it can not be the target of Blockades or Battle Support, even if it still has naval vessels. However, despite being under 800 land, today I was the target of a Blockade, presumable because I have some non-blockade breaking vessels left. http://www.cybernations.net/message.asp?ID=28827544

This offer is now closed. Selling a $20 Donation (to be made on any date of your choosing) for $15 Million. Two payments totaling $6 Million must arrive today in order to secure this deal. Please contact me here or at the nation of Bloxhelm at your earliest convenience.

I'm interested, if you can get two payments to my nation today. PM incoming.

Sparqs went down to the Black Market, he was looking for a Donation Deal. He was in a bind 'cos he was way behind: he was willin' to bow and kneel. When he came across this old nation pumping out money and making a lot, And Sparqs jumped upon a hickory stump and said: "Sir, let me tell you what: "I bet you didn't know it, but I'm a good-sized nation, too. "But my bills are high and rather than die, I'll make a deal with you. "Now you make pretty good money, sir, but give ol' Sparqs his due: "I'll make a donation to your nation, in exchange for Florins from you. The ruler said: "My name's Bobby," and with a devilish grin, "I'll take your deal, your gonna squeal, 'cos I'm the fastest that's ever been." Selling a $20 Donation for CN$15 Million, payable immediately! All payments must be made before May 27th. Highly preferable for you to provide most (if not all) the middlemen.

This deal is now closed. In full disclosure, I compromised and accepted $15M, which is the same price I got for the last donation I sold. I suspect I could have obtained my asking price, had my situation allowed me more time. In fact, Princess Aurora Soup's post makes me wonder if I should have held out...
