I wasn't even thinking of updating until you posted this... now I want to do it more than ever

only a certain kind of emoticon can truly encapsulate being the biggest gainer, and posting on this page...

I agree, changed to classic green.

I've decided to change reality instead of admit mistake

Unfortunately the same can not be said for Ragnarok who has really been determined to stick to the downwards spiral approach, they take the biggest loser title for today at a staggering loss of over a third of a point, but misery loves company and Invicta is happy to keep Ragnarok company with a loss of over a quarter of a point, dropping below two alliances. New Polar Order on the other hand had a strong showing today and has moved within striking distance of The Phoenix Federation who lose one tenth of a point. Our biggest gainer title is jointly shared today by The Order of the Paradox and Nueva Vida as they gain over a quarter of a point. Nueva Vida also pulls away from the pack and towards the LoSS/WTF/NV/NADC Challenge Line: 16.00, where riches and fame await them. In other news Green Protection Agency is very close to passing Grand Global Alliance attempting to claim the 2nd strongest green alliance title. Also The Dark Evolution, Greenland Republic, Mushroom Kingdom, and Monos Archein are painfully close to one another, one might say that a challenge is in order :jihad:. Finally Random Insanity Alliance drops below Add Line, get back on track guys, I know you can do it, you've overcome the drop line's clutches more than once before! Today's shout-out goes to: New Polar Order congrats on getting your flag in-game, and having such great growth, I see some passes in your future. ---------- Related Links: Stats By Unspeakable Evil Tournament Edition Sanction Race How To Update the Amazing Sanction Race /update also, obligatory

I'm gonna take update on this one (haven't done it in a while), also it will include that nice polar flag in gopher's post.

sent 3 million for 100 tech

If you count MK member poaching as legit

I don't know if I have the will to carry on

Wow, no surprise, the moment we get past 14 score we take a huge loss again. Actually really pissed about the loss this time, good members. We'll enjoy the backlash from that next update.

As expected we had a drop after passing 14. Not as big as usual, but big enough. Our failures are like clock work. Damn, when will the terms end

Cool, we got past the 14 point mark. Time for an unexplained drop again

no kidding +1.19 score... DAMN, how do you expect Aqua to catch you with that kind of growth

I find it ironic that Sparta gets the biggest gainer only a couple days after people in Sparta were wondering how cool it would be to get biggest gainer since they haven't gotten it in months. IT'S A CONSPIRACY!!!!!1111 THEY SET US ALL UP, ABANDON AQUA <.<

Actually it would be rather close. Then again we could always have The Mushroom Order of Härmlin Parasols.

I agree. Let's go for a threepeat of static score.

What was your greatest diplomatic success, and greatest diplomatic failure? Some group questions: What do you think the major powers of the game can do to re-invigorate the community in the age of declining numbers? Do you think it's possible for an oppositional force to form in this environment? Why do you think old grudges constantly re-surface in the OWF? (i.e. UJW)

whoa... some one fed these grämlins after midnight...

See what happens when you're not in charge? *Votes to renew the MCXA-MK Gopher whipping treaty*

Commentary The Viridian Entente claims the title of biggest gainer today beating out both of the Orders by the slimmest of margins. Other notable gains include: Independent Republic of Orange Nations, Fark and Orange Defense Network who continue to widen the gap between them and The Order of the Paradox. The Grämlins is the biggest loser after take a devastating loss continuing a trend that has nearly undone all of their recent growth, what's going on guys? Grand Global Alliance stagnation has allowed M*A*S*H to re-enter the race, welcome back guys. Otherwise a slow day for most alliances. Today's shout goes out to the New Polar Order, they've managed to make some astonishing gains under harsh terms, keep it up guys, you'll have your sanction back in no time. ----------------------- Related Links: Stats by Unspeakable Evil Lord Sharpe's MDP Web Vote for Cybernations Daily! Notes: You're lucky I was bored enough to do this, we need a stable whipping boy *eyes gopher*. Also, I'm pretty sure that my boredom is apparent in my uninteresting / generic commentary.

Moments like these are what make this game all worth it

Great show, you guys answered my questions nicely. Made for a good discussion. also wow, question explosion.

Great show. What's your opinion on neutral alliances? Do you feel that diplomacy / allies has replaced combat proficiency in terms of who becomes successful and retains power in CN? Does PR matter anymore, or is communication with impact confined to IRC / forums? Why is there few breaks in the treaty web? (nearly everyone is aligned either directly or indirectly) What is it about this game that keeps you interested? Are Cybernation's best days behind us or ahead of us? (this was asked to ES, I wondered what you think).
