Much of what has gone on in this post is disheartening, but to be expected to say the least. Trolls and flamers need not be addressed, except to say that it is entertaining to see you all quote Ironchef's "blip" statement when in reality virtually all alliances in CN are nothing but a blip when taken by themselves.
All of you who have been playing this game for as long as you have know that dirty laundry exists in all alliances and it is ashamed when it is aired out. I am not in any sort of leadership position in the alliance, but I can say we are working through the situation as best as possible. In the meantime have your laugh, little can stop that at this point.
