[quote name='supercoolyellow' timestamp='1316490490' post='2804235'] I wonder who has more influence in pb. VE or MK? [/quote] Psh. Umbrella runs this !@#$. Also, congrats on the treaty dudes.

Good stuff here. Congrats to both of our allies.

EDIT: Double post

[quote name='Fort Pitt' timestamp='1316306909' post='2802694'] Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't activity gauged by when you collect? So theoretically it's irrelevant if you have a large number of large nations who do the full 20 day cycles. [/quote] [quote name='ShadowDragon' timestamp='1316243972' post='2802129'] In-game activity hasn't been measured by collections in months. Admin changed it back in January so that its measured by those who have logged in within the past 3 days instead. [/quote] [quote name='Aeros' timestamp='1316265691' post='2802200'] I would disagree, since it is based on log in activity. Right now its very relevant due to the impending trade overhaul. Everyone should be busy checking to make sure their nations are prepared for the switch. So it makes a good stress test of an Alliances organizational structure and activity. Alliances that are below 80% activity at this time should be a bit concerned. Especially since in my view Activity can also translate into staying power during a war. [/quote] [quote name='Drai' timestamp='1316279507' post='2802337'] It got changed a while back to show who has signed in recently rather than who has collected taxes. [/quote] [quote name='Locke' timestamp='1316284125' post='2802410'] Activity is still based on this, but [i]alliance[/i] activity isn't. [/quote] [quote name='Gopherbashi' timestamp='1316306123' post='2802688'] This only shows your nation activity. The alliance statistic is based on who's logged in during the past three days. Two different statistics that unfortunately have the same name. [/quote] Also, no surprise that we're number 1. We're always number 1

In before Duckroll demands to be added.

But what about Cruise Missile count?!

You got yourselves a pretty cool blocmate there. Congrats

[quote name='Banksy' timestamp='1313274885' post='2779995'] This is going to be one of those posts which is really funny to read in two years time when MK HAS STABBED NoR IN THE BACK. [/quote] I agree. I'm saving it for future reference Congrats on the treaty btw

Very nice. Congrats to both of you.

[quote name='Drai' timestamp='1312781900' post='2774671'] Having been in something like 10 alliances during my first 3 years of CN, I've finally been able to really settle into one that fits more or less anything I want from a CN community. In 2006-mid 2009 I went through a series of alliances that now no longer exist due to merging or disbandment (VE you are literally the only one ruining the pattern here, I think I'm 9-for-10 on past alliances that don't exist anymore). With the exception of NAAC (8 months) I was never on the same AA for more than half a year. But MK has been entertaining, active, and shows the drive to remain a fun and interesting alliance. I was recently thinking if there was any situation where I might even consider leaving MK. Nothing very tempting came to mind until this evening. What if there was an alliance forming that consisted of active and driven members who, to put it simply, actually gave a !@#$ about CN? Everybody (100% of the members) in the alliance would aim to grow their nation efficiently, and play a role in IA, FA, or any other aspect of the alliance. They were IRC active, and generally recognized on the OWF. Is this something that would appeal to you? Meaning, if you knew that there were 20-30 people involved for the DoE and you met the previously-mentioned criteria, would you join? Note: This is just out of curiousity, or hypothetical. I don't have any plans to actually attempt this. I'm simply trying to think of scenarios where I would be tempted to leave an alliance I've been in for so long, and can't really see myself elsewhere. [/quote] I've actually been in the same boat myself wrt AA switching. For the hypothetical AA, it would honestly depend on who the members are and what your policies would be etc. But if you can guarantee strong and consistent activity you'd at least have my attention.

[quote name='Arcturus Jefferson' timestamp='1312838431' post='2775203'] Was the treaty ever activated? I know Fark and FOK! have been on the same side in a few wars, but wasn't that mostly through FOK's connections on Orange, as opposed to through this treaty? [/quote] R&R-IRON was never activated either as far as I know. I'm sure there are a decent number of other treaties like that. Whole blocs have come and gone without ever being activated.

You're both terrible posters.

I know this must've been a difficult decision for you guys so for your sake I will refrain from fist-pumping and making loud wooping noises in response to this announcement. Best of luck to our allies in FOK o/

[quote name='Aeros' timestamp='1312627831' post='2773459'] If anything it seems like the entire point of this thread is to show the entire world that SF and MJ really, [i]really[/i] don't like each other. [/quote] I don't know about you, but I was quite shocked by this revelation myself

[quote name='Unknown Smurf' timestamp='1312529900' post='2772516'] In addition to this, I personally feel as though Umbrella is the factor that decides the outcome of this coming war, do you(SF) feel the Umbrella/IRON ODP foreshadowing Umb's position as well? [/quote] Umbrella is irrelevant without their god king Roquentin to lead them. They may as well surrender now and let Xiphosis disband them.

Was wondering when we were going to get around to announcing this. Here's to new friends o/

Congrats on the milestone friends.
