Not even a mention of me anywhere. I see how it is. Oh well. Edit: not even going to bother.

Xiphosis likes me, I have very lovable qualities. He knows it, I know it -- we both know it. I have no questions. Only fact. =] Regards, Cuba P.S. Gibbs and Liz are cool.

Julia <3 she's MHAmazing, see what I just did? *whistles*

[quote name='Mogar' timestamp='1310340098' post='2754080'] Loyalty to my own alliance is above everything else, I've been ZI'd for CDS, and would have gotten ZI'd during Karma if Batallion wasn't such a [you can fill in the blank]. Now on the other hand, should members of other alliances choose to provide me with information, especially when they're on a side opposite my own... why not air their dirty laundry? goes back to the PR subject, use what you're given. [/quote] People who provide you with information are either lol'ing at you or they are seriously incompetent. At any rate -- I am sure that you DO have people who give you good information.... but, so do I. Anyone who is well known within our little world here can get information if they know the right people.

[quote name='Krack' timestamp='1310390580' post='2754374'] Did you type that bold part with a straight face? [/quote] lol, to a degree I tried.

Formula for success: • Be controversial • Core theme • Historical/Authentic/Political • Authoritarian/Democratically (but controlled) placed on a predetermined path • Rigored system of membership promotions • Militaristic • Dynamic leadership Alliances whom have weathered this path and still exist: • New Pacific Order • New Polar Order • Mushroom Kingdom • Federation of Armed Nations • Independent Republic of Orange Nations • Nordreich • Umbrella That to me is the list of alliances in this game that are not cookie cutter, lazy, stupidly themed, meatshields, 'exist by default', packed on a bus with friends for protection and just so inept that their continued existence defies logic. This is NOT to say that alliances like Viridian Entente, Sparta, The Order of Paradox, New Sith Order, Mostly Harmless Alliance, Orange Defense Network, Valhalla and Fark -- will not be there for you when !@#$ turns sideways -- but the alliances on that top list; they will burn for you and sail to the end of the world if that means defending you. That top list has a lot of things in common; chiefly being that they're tough !@#$ and anyone who has played this game long enough, will appreciate and expect the outcome of what will happen when one of those declares your pixels dust. Denying the reality of that fact is uneducated in the historical wars of Cyber Nations. What makes a successful alliance? A desire to $%&@ !@#$ up and coordinated offenses. No amount of 'forum and charter design' will save you when the music stops. Strong theme, unwavering leadership, balls and educated leadership -- that is success. Play ball or go home.

[quote name='Mogar' timestamp='1310105537' post='2752187'] I'm a shameless self promoter and I've never denied this, playing in back channels have never been amusing to me, now taking what is said in those private channels and making it public information? that brings about much more entertainment. [/quote] Exactly the reason most alliances should never let you near government. You have no loyalty and you like to talk !@#$.

This will probably be a good read. Thanks.

[quote name='Emperor Marx' timestamp='1310257132' post='2753560'] Wasn't he also an "imbecile"? [/quote] Who Wilhelm1908? idk him that much.

[quote name='pd73bassman' timestamp='1310249240' post='2753486'] Yeah pretty much dead on [/quote] But, we love LoSS [img]http://forums.cybernations.net/public/style_emoticons/default/wub.gif[/img]

You made a public announcement for a resignation? Why not let SLCB make an official announcement themselves? [img]http://forums.cybernations.net/public/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif[/img]

[quote name='CnaedmacAilpn' timestamp='1310246228' post='2753458'] I just cannot believe this has gone on for so long. An imbecile comes along, decides to take on the mantle of the new creator of TGE, upsets NOR. Who then decide that this threat to their existence should be eradicated with extreme prejudice. Then the said imbecile, without ever having been attacked, sees the light, and becomes a NoR !@#$%*, while everyone else with a TGE AA, gets extreme butt hurts. Damn, this has the makings of an excellent soap opera. Dallas, eat your heart out. [/quote] Sup Wilhelm 1908?

Is it wrong that I have been around since 2006 and do not recognize some of those alliance names? wtf is Kingdom of Ni!

Xiphosis, come on man -- at least SAY it was me and Nikanor you were talking to! Your points won't go down because you were talking to us on IRC. People were generally nicer back then though, yes. Except between me and the commies.

LoSS sucks. We only treaty'd them for chels, and now we have her (lol @ legion-x) [img]http://forums.cybernations.net/public/style_emoticons/default/emot-v.gif[/img] lol congratulations to both of our allies. Next LoSS signs a treaty with MK?

Yeah, I am soo rebellious! The only one with an avatar that is different -- mine! [img]http://forums.cybernations.net/public/style_emoticons/default/awesome.gif[/img]

Yeah, Cuba is horrible.

This announcement was probably the best politically strategic move I have seen in quite awhile -- and that is saying quite a lot, considering recent moves by other alliances post-CBless. Strength of hand is given to those who see an opportunity to raise their stock -- and seize it with full recognition of the impact it makes. Whether there is another motive; arguments will be raised, confirmed or denied. Whether I am giving The Legion too much credit -- quite possible.

Looked like hippos tbqh.

Is this real? What?

Welcome to the black team.

[quote name='D34th' timestamp='1310093641' post='2751965'] Yeah, your alliance were acting like you owned the black sphere, trying to deny this is just a hilarious attempt of backpedal, also if you had read [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=103375&view=findpost&p=2750623"]my replies[/url] you would have saw that in any moment I supported erase TGE from CN. And yet, another attempt to bring Polaris into this conversation when they have nothing to do with it, your alliance tactic of insult my alliance and me to divert the attention is failing pretty hard. But keep doing that, is just shows how weak your capacity of argumentation is. That is really really hilarious, that's will be your line of defense? You'll say that what caused TGE disbandment wasn't NoR attacks? That TGE disbanded just because suddenly Kaiser Wilhelm I decided to disband the alliance without any reason behind that? How can you claim that you not disbanded the alliance when you attacked them exactly with this intention? At least assume your own actions like a man. [/quote] In my statement I said "Get off the black team. No, really -- GET OFF." Where did I say "This is Nordreich's team -- $%&@ GOONS, Sparta, LoSS, Umbrella and OBR and the others"?? Also, I am well within my rights to ask someone to remove themselves from my alliance's team if I dislike their presence; that does not constitute an alliance's goal and ambition. Also, I can equate you to the bi-polar theme all I wish, you fit the bill to the 'T'. TGE disbanding was on their own accord -- stop trying to act as if you are the big cheese and know everything, if you have an issue with their disbandment -- take it up with Kaiser Wilhelm I. Nordreich attacked TGE because: 1.) unprotected AA 2.) tech raiding is fun Now stop acting like a dumbass and trying to do the 'Nordreich is evil; look at me I can repeatedly say NORDREICH IS EVIL!!' I mean christ -- your own alliance asks you to shut up in our embassy on your forum and you don't get the hint. Good god you're annoying as hell.

Looks all right. I enjoy killing Gibs and Liz in #odnmafia every now and then -- that's how NoR/CSN relations are balanced out. [img]http://forums.cybernations.net/public/style_emoticons/default/awesome.gif[/img]
