  2. The Recreation of NAAC

    in Alliance Announcements (IC)

    Posted

    The level of illiteracy in this thread is appalling. One should do more than glance at the original post before saying anything in a thirteen-page thread.

    That said, I second the recommendation of an apology to the NAAC community. It'll do well to put an end to this silliness, at least for most, and it's unlikely you'll be relieved of AirMe's threat, whatever it entails, without doing at least that.

    To anyone else who would consider posting in this thread, I can't stress enough how important it is to read Chozo's post, if nothing else. If you're too impatient even for that, then your input is unnecessary.

    A rare public announcement from LordChozo:

    As a member of NAAC from a month after its inception until present, I have never heard of Jack Diorno until today. He has never been involved with the alliance, and his current actions serve no practical in-game purpose other than to attempt to instigate raids and attacks on the two of us, particularly myself, who leave well-enough alone.

    I wish nothing more than to steadily and gradually progress my nation for no other reason than to see it grow. I have never, in the past 2+ years, initiated aggressive action against anyone, though I have been the target of aggressions myself. I have rebuilt from ZI at least three times in that span. This Jack Diorno, whoever he is, apparently is gunning to have me do it a fourth time. I can't say I'm too thrilled about that.

    The NAAC has never "died," in the sense that its legacy remains alive and healthy. This thread is testament to that, judging by the acerbic reactions the majority of you have had to Jack's announcement - one he has no right to make. The point has been made a few times that it is inane to "recreate" an AA with existing members - I add to that point the further absurdity of attempting to resurrect an AA that, since its inception, has never ceased to exist in-game.

    That has been my sworn duty, and to perform it I have sacrificed any chance of becoming a "powerful" nation, including (obviously) a solid interest or even awareness of current world events on Planet Bob. I have made sure to log in often enough to prevent auto-deletion, even when abroad in China for an extended period of time without internet (had to "borrow" a hotel computer), because that is simply what I must do. For those who were never part of the NAAC (or those honored enemies who waged great wars against us over the years), especially including Jack, you can never understand this.

    Your attempts at resurrecting the NAAC will fail. This is evident from the sheer fact that you made a public announcement about it. You might rally the ignorant to your side, but do you really think the people who matter in this ordeal don't know who I am? Do you really think the majority of the people who want to destroy your nation won't leave mine (and the other one) alone? Do you really think people will listen to you above the wishes of all the former NAAC leaders who wish for it to rest in peace?

    This was not simply a misguided insult to AirMe, but was an insult to the intelligence and integrity of the entirety of Planet Bob. Get off my AA, bub. You don't deserve it.

    Also, a lock would be nice. I think this thread has run its course.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think killing the original NAAC (you) is just slightly more dishonorable then breathing life into it once again (me).

    You are mistaken. The NAAC remains alive to this day by the people who created and upheld its legacy. I know several people who keep it alive by their respect for this legacy, many of whom never even knew the alliance firsthand. You are not one of these people.

    I would ask you not to make cheap amusement for yourself out of a culture I contributed to and hold dear, but the simple fact of the matter is that you don’t give a damn about the culture. You read enough about the NAAC to realize exploiting its arctic gimmick was the simplest way to draw something of a connection beyond the use of its name, but authenticity is ultimately only important for its added weight to the kick between AirMe’s legs.

    It’d be just dandy if no one used the NAAC’s name as a showpiece, but I still find myself sympathizing more with the former member drawing a comparison than the ignorant man parading around with something he’s never had any connection to for the sake of a personal attack. Granted, a thread entitled “To AirMe, Regarding Your Commentary on the Reformation of \m/” containing the text “I disagree” or even a well-constructed rebuttal wouldn’t have caused as much controversy, but it would have been much more straightforward.

  8. Dispatch from the Greenland Republic

    Last night, the polls across Greenland came to a close and there was great anticipation as her citizens waited for the votes to be tallied. Eventually, it was confirmed that Al and his running mate Shamedmonkey won their second term as Archon and Vice Archon of the Greenland Republic. With the exception of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, all departments of the Republic saw the election of new leaders this month and there is much enthusiasm for the potential of this fresh lineup. Also new to government this month is Paulpig, who recently joined the Republic with the rest of Avalanche; after Kestral took over the Ministry of Defense, he filled her place in the Senate.

    Of course, the most exciting news is always the Minister of Trains election. This month brought us quite the upset, possibly related to the numerous reports of faulty ballots. The lack of votes in this particular category may lend credence to these reports, but all requests for a recount have been denied.

    Doitzel - 7

    Archon - 5

    Babyjesus - 1

    Drai - 1

    It is with great pleasure that I appoint Doitzel as the Greenland Republic's new Minister of Trains for the months of August and September, 2009. In other news, Electron Sponge retains his position as Admiral of the Iceberg Floatilla as no candidates were allowed to challenge him.

    August 2009 Greenland Republic Government

    Archon: Al

    Vice-Archon: Shamedmonkey

    Minister of Foreign Affairs: Ilselu1

    Minister of Defence: Kestral

    Minister of Finance: Tantare Federation

    Minister of Interior: Mercuri

    Minister of Trains: Doitzel

    Senate: Wurzel, Gn0x, Cripple, Jenker, and Paulpig

    Admiral of the Iceberg Floatilla: Electron Sponge

    Cheers, Greenland.

  11. Dispatch from GR and ODN

    Orange Julius Accords

    Preamble

    In the interests of strengthening peaceful relations, Greenland Republic, herein referred to as "GR", and Orange Defense Network, herein referred to as "ODN", agree to the following:

    Article I: Peace

    This one is pretty self-explanatory. No attacking, spying, or otherwise aggressive action shall go on between the two signatories. The undersigned agree to remain courteous in public and to resolve any disputes posthaste via private channels. In the event of a rogue attack, the undersigned agree to reparate the rogued upon alliance in twice the sum of the damages incurred.

    Article II: Intelligence

    Should either of the undersigned obtain information that could even potentially be harmful to the other party, they agree that said information should be shared immediately, though the source of the information may remain undisclosed, at the informing party's discretion.

    Article III: Communism

    The undersigned respect that while one party may not have financial troubles, the other may well. The wealthier party hereby pledges to honour any aid requests from the not-wealthier party, because communism rocks.

    Article IV: Optional Defense

    In the event that either party finds itself aggressed upon, the aggressed party may petition the non-aggressed party for assistance against the aggressor. It is not necessary for the non-aggressed party to commence aggressive actions against the original aggressor; however, I digress.

    Article V: Cxl'n

    Both the Greenland Republic & Orange Defense Network agree that, should this commitment become unviable, they will give the other party at least one (1) fortnight of notice prior to the effective cxl'n of this pact, excepting when one party has violated Article I. In this most unfortunate of cases, no cxl'n period applies. After sixty (60) days, each party may review this treaty and ponder an upgrade.

    Signed for the Orange Defense Network:

    Arsenal, Secretary General

    Sunstar, Assistant Secretary General and Brass Keytarist

    Bullshirt, Secretary of Defense

    James Davis, Secretary of State

    Merlin, Secretary of Economics

    Nemo249, Secretary of the Interior

    ODN Senate XXX,

    Cataduanes, Franklin, Joracy, Twizzler, Zessa

    Signed for the Greenland Republic:

    Al, Archon

    Shamedmonkey, Vice-Archon and Resident Loudmouth

    Virillus, Minister of Defence

    Ilselu1, Minister of Foreign Affairs

    Kosherness, Minister of Finance

    Acid, Minister of Interior

    GR Senate [lost count],

    Wurzel, Gn0x, Cripple, Kestral, Jenker

    God you people need to learn your limits :P

    If my current engagements constituted my limit, I would be sorely disappointed in myself. My warchest has actually undergone a net increase since the war started and I still have not been attacked by any countering forces. This is getting dull.

  24. The Amazing Sanction Race

    The NAAC lives on in our hearts and minds.

    Also, Gopher, today is the day.

    This man speaks the truth. Gopher, you can still join the party; just stop by the NAAC's old channel. The celebration continues throughout the day and well into the night with socializing in general and radio in particular.
