Cheyenne

I was never a fan of your alliance, but you've always seemed to be a decent fellow. So long, farewell, aufweidersehn goodbye.

I joined CN on May 18, 2006, under the name Ryan Smyth. I never intended to make this my permanent moniker, but I wanted to get a feel for the game, see how it looked, and whether or not I wanted to join. After several days it became clear that I did, so after letting my nation die, I restarted as Cheyenne of Northern Territory, on June 4. To clear up some misconception I've ahd about this name: No, I am not, in fact, a female. The name is derived from the model of my brother's truck at the time, a Chevy Cheyenne. I liked the name, and took it. I have always pronounced it, however, as Chay-Yen, with a hard "ch" sound, as opposed to Shay-Yen. June 5th proved to be a day that would mark my time in CN, as it was when I received a private message on the forums from someone called Lord Zion, informing me of a "secret" alliance he was forming. I was intrigued, told him so, and soon enough I was the third member of his alliance. He seemed quite adept at recruiting, as we quickly grew to twenty members, all of whom were sworn to secrecy. Included in this alliance were several members of other alliances, including a character named Draka, who was currently enlisted into the NPO. At the time, while I knew this would be frowned upon, I did not know of the seriousness of it. Several of you may know Draka as the ONOS leader directly under King Arthur II at the time of the alliance's downfall at the hands of NPO. Suffice to say, he was not a very intelligient player. To be continued.

You my be wondering who I am, why I've decided to do this, and what use it is to you, seeing as I've been fairly inactive in recent months. My name is Cheyenne. Over the course of several years I have founded or cofounded alliances that went on to have a major impact on the game (ONOS, MDC, TR/Atlantis, Vox Populi), had a hand in the beginning of several major wars (Maroon War, GW3) and been a member of more alliances than you can shake a stick at. I would imagine I have been involved in more backroom politics than 90% of CNers, and I believe that this biography of myself may be of interest to at least some of you. Plus, I'm an attention whore. So sit back, relax, and enjoy my ramblings on myself, CN, and her politics.

There used to be no cap on GR.

Join because I'm a member.

Probably the fact that I have more experience than 95% of CNers.

I'm not Randomly Insane. No thanks NFL.

IAA Guy: Sounds cool. Best so far. German Guy: While the awesomeness DOES sound appealing, I'll take a pass. OcUK: Make me Lord Protector and it's a go. Commie: No thanks.

Perhaps if either of you had used proper spelling and grammar, I might have considered it. Thank you anyway.

To be honest, I'd rather have information spoonfed to me than go looking for it. What's your government style? How old/large/respected are you? What are the odds of me getting a position?

So I don't have an alliance. So go!

Or a really lax mortgage broker.

I see your 200, and raise you to 300 million.
