    I believe it's actually cologne scented bacon.

    In any case, it would seem that VE has done something to rankle those who have greater tendencies towards roguery. What that is, I don't know. Maybe it's just best to have a little fun with it. Blow some stuff up.

    Lilith Ker started the war long ago before he is not yet member of Nueva Vida, I initiated the vengeance.

    [/quote]Being how you are a neophyte who hasn't even been around here two weeks [OOC]barring a reroll or two[/OOC], and Lilith Ker has been in Nueva Vida for a good year and a half, I'm gonna have to call shens on this one.

    You got another horrible excuse for your unprovoked attack on CSN? :P

  15. Discussion on Cyber Nation Awards

    These awards things are so awful, I was quite glad we didn't have one this year. The issue is that everyone thinks the results are unfair. I see that you propose having an academy, this is presumably because you see open voting as reducing the chances of the more active alliances of winning, in some people's view, a disproportionate number of awards. A change in format already shows you see bias in the system and want to instead add a different sort of bias. It illustrates why these competitions are flawed right from the outset.

    We're better off without them.

    Hit the nail on the head.

    We're obviously going to have active alliances bum-rushing polls in the case of OWF polls, which leads to results like last year's. On the other hand, having an academy system like the one SCY outlined would only shift the bias to the larger alliances, perhaps leaving equally suitable but less-known candidates out. And seriously, trying to round up someone from every listed alliance as well as active non-listed alliances (like AOD Brigade for example) would be a pain in the neck. It just isn't worth it.

    That would cause me to stock up on LOTS of ammunition and potable water.

    So would a new FAN-NPO treaty on the heels of a restoration of the OoO...

    And to top it off, the resurrection of Rebbilon. By [i]me[/i]. With ODN as protector. (Anyone who was in ODN back then would get the joke.)

    The OP...well this week I've seen ODN execute a properly timed counterattack, Sparta declare war stating more or less up front that they have no interest in profiting from it but are interested in "fun", and now GOONS have written a well thought out, reasoned post in which they articulate their position effectively, without silly pictures or attempts at lulz.

    Ok people, joke's over. Where did you put my Planet Bob and where the hell am I?
    [/quote]

    Sigged. This gave me a good laugh. :laugh:

    I do wonder what will come of this, though. I don't want to harangue either alliance as I have friends in both, so I will simply say, good luck to both sides.

    I actually kept saying "Misunderestimate" and it took me a few tries to speak somewhat legitimate words. I am not cromulent with the English language.

    Fair play.

    OOC: I would agree with WickedJ from a strictly OOC perspective, but I have a feeling we might have [i]another[/i] opportunity not too far off. ;)

    I think you [b]underestimate[/b] how [b]much[/b] Europans really care about our nations. I was thinking I might just start selling all my military and tech just to speed up the process. I'm no stranger to being ZI'd, and frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn. Come at me, bro.

    Two better choices of words here:

    1. "Underestimate how little"
    2. "Overestimate how much"

    But I will say, I admire your stance here. o/ Europa
