Sweet, seven pages of o7.
No need to break it up either.
o7 TOP. B)

:lol: I know for a fact another of the FCCs founders was from Minneapolis, and one person that still hangs around the FCC forums was from MPLS. Minneapolis/Minnesota gets boring enough in winter that you have to find something to do; CN fills that void well.

Sorry, you can't beat the LSF on this one. I want a link to that FCC forums, constitution and wiki NAW
Follow my sig to find what you need about LSF.
If FCC can compete with us on that, then i propose an mdp for the mere sexiness of it :lol:
As for others, i'm afraid that a Tri is much less liberal than an anarchist direct democracy. Isn't that obvious enough?
This, it's LSF by a long shot above us, our elections for Senate are bimonthly and our elections for directorate are quarterly; while nearly all of the decisions on direction are made or at least run by the general membership, we've had out of necessity to keep some things within the executive/leadership regarding decisions made through our diplomatic obligations. Out of the handful of other alliances I know I'd have to suggest Vigilance for the third position, based only on me thinking Peppermint Pig has always been the leader there, so there's little change over.

I've known some people playing who live in my area of Colorado, and even more in my area of Minneapolis back when I was there.

I think I'm pro anything that ends what I saw as rampant acrimony between MK and RoK, to a new future! o7

It's not in my nature to participate in curb stomps, nor is it in my alliance's nature, quite the opposite really. Although we hold such opinions and dislike curbstomps, we recognize it as the state of Planet Bob, but are not looking to be some revolutionary force throughout the lands. Frankly, the current situation while not ideal, is rather predictable from an outsiders perspective and harkons back to what was said earlier, if you're looking to become a major dominant force in the game without working within the established hegemony, you'll be dismantled.

To classify Citadel, at it's formation as being equal to or more powerful than WUT is absurd, we weren't even 10M total NS back then, all we had then, and now, is high average NS.

There's a reason I didn't specifically state that Mobius_1 / Junkalunka was banned from this thread, it was primarily because I didn't want him feeling like I was treating him any different than anyone else. Now I see that was a mistake because of what has happened with this thread. Please if you ever run across him posting in regards to us, just ignore him.
Mods please lock, thank you.

I too hope Megami is alright.
Congratulations to the new government. For any of you that don't know, or have failed to remember... I love you guys.
Why isn't anyone ever on IRC?
I think the only people left are the ones that never were on IRC to begin with, I know I have enough commitments already to have added this on is a little much. But whatever.

Firstly, I'd like to address the whole arguement regarding: 'Jack formed the alliance he doesn't have to swear an oath.' Then why frankly does anyone have to swear an oath to uphold their charter and be a member, the leader of a democratic alliance is no better than those he rules and is subject to the same rules imposed on the membership. The foundation of my alliance consisted of all of the founders, 12 of them, swearing an oath to the alliance and to uphold it's charter.
What seems to be done here is the leadership of an alliance disagreeing with the actions of their leader and taking action, though seemingly not the correct procedure laid out in their charter, they jumped the gun so it seems. You would be wise if you can weather this storm to make sure your charter explictly states you can not surrender your sovereignty at any time; had your alliance had such a passage in your charter you wouldn't be in this situation at all as Jack's actions would be in terrible violation of it. Though I'll have to take a more thorough look through your charter before being certain this could have been legitimate had you done it right, as this is an interesting dilemma.

So, it's been a long time since we've had nearly a full rework of our Government office holders, and seeing as special elections for our Directorate had to be held we put off announcing the new senate for nearly a month to allow one major announcement, we try our best to move at TOP speed around here, but then there's FCC speed.
Without any further delay. Executive Powers:
Director: Jhouserok of Azcrackistan
Secretary of State: Bradicus of Dran Ti Larin
Secretary of Development: Helena of Argidir (aka: 655321)
Secretary of Defense: TsarZiedonis of American Directorate
Secretary of the Interior: Cujothekitten of Woodnote
The Senate:
The Fifth Senate of the Fifth Column Confederation:
(In session as of October 13th, 2008)
- Lovealot of Carealotl
- TsarZiedonis of American Directorate
- Maverick of The Arcadium
- Cujothekitten of Woodnote
- Helena of Argidir
Judicial Powers:
High Court Judge (Assembly): Unforgiving Savior of Technocratic Union
High Court Judge (Senate): Military of Fountain
High Court Judge (Directorate): Lukas of Igbo People
I'd like to add that the reason we had to hold a special election for our directorate position was the purging of our former director Megami about a month ago. [OOC]Basically she lives in Houston and told us she was evacuating for Hurricane Ike, last I believe we heard from her she was saying they were going back into Houston after weathering the storm further inland, we haven't heard from her since.[/OOC]
Anyhow, I'm rather proud of the elections we carried out and very happy with those who have newly entered the Senate. But alas, since we put off this announcement we'll be having elections again soon, silly democracies.
So, barring any major SHTF situations, you probably wont be seeing an announcement from us in the very near future. Have a great day, and hail the FCC! o7

Interesting to see the military build ups related to each war and how buildups are an obvious tell to those being attacked, if they were watching(ie TOP's build up prior to GPA's war). Crazy to see the drop of nearly 2M NS from NPO throughout their war with MK however, in relation to those attacking the NpO who mostly came away unscathed; but I guess that goes back to the played out 7:1 argument and low cash reserves held by those nations.
Also you can see the Gramlin's merger swell and then subsequent results didn't overall harm their NS really at all.

You have to be kidding me, a Firefly themed alliance I didn't know about.

Going back through records on the FCC forums I think the following quotes summarize the intent of this thread in it's entirety.
...Man, you just keep making our case for us.
I already said I am an authoritarian and Francoist, and believe in military discipline... Told Cujo that the FCC membership probably couldn't bear it any more than they could bear Koona... so what are you referring to?
It's worth noting that I find it amusing how you seem to latch onto the ideology of the strongest individual you interact with and adopt their beliefs as their own. When you were here and Rich came across like the alpha male, you basically turned into an AnCap. Now, after recovering from the beating the NPO gave you, you're a staunch Francoist.
I have to agree with Audustum - I'm surprised you're not trying to join the NPO and work your way up to Imperial Officer.
You latch onto supporting everything popular and "cool", don't you? I hate this frickin' game so much.No, he just latches onto whatever allows him to RP in the most dramatic fashion possible.
From "Diehard Francoist" to "International Anarchist," no one can completely inverse their mindset faster than Junkalunka. Double think at it's finest.Told you, it's all about the RP. Junka-as-V brings him more opportunity to write stirring speeches and RP than Junka-as-political-scholar does.
It's a pretty apt description of anything Junka/Mobius1 does. It's sad Nak isn't with the FCC any longer, she's like a sage I say, a sage.

Having known him from his start in the FCC two years ago, it greatly saddens me to see his light extinguished.
-
Good read, I like it.

In regards to your question: Yes, and apparently yes.

I voted for every Citadel alliance, mainly cause I'd like to see some action that's not TE related.
-
This member, however, was not demasked for a whole week, from my understanding.
The simple fact is that ITA was poorly managed; with some competence they would have never left themselves open, nor would they have committed so many diplomatic faux pas. Anybody who might have been interested in a protectorate treaty with ITA perhaps now is a little wiser in the ways of the world.
FCC must needs watch their aid transactions perhaps, and better monitor their members; that aid is potentially an act of war, although *perhaps* innocent. By rights the FCC owes GGA some reps here for aiding a rogue in action against GGA, and frankly I'm stunned the FCC government would not be on top of this and seek to immediately and proactively resolve these (and similar) issues, but perhaps Citadel protection has made the leadership somewhat... lethargic?
Considering there really isn't a timeline for how this was all dealt with I have no idea how long the demasking took after the expulsion. Don't know anything about the ITA's managment, nor do I really care. I do happen to know you quite dislike their managment, ie Thrash56 and are responsible for having them tech raided by Poison Clan only to gloat about it at our boards causing you to be banned for using our alliance boards as a means to exact revenge for past slights while you were an FCC/IAA member, but then this is kind of off point. As to insulting our government, I think you know better of how we handle things, and once matters are brought to our attention they're given swift and judicious action based upon our ideals.

Forgive me for a moment, but I have to ask you for information regarding:
While the Communist Party of Cybernations and the Fifth Column Confederation have been working with us to solve this incident (and I thank them for working with us)There has been nothing that I've seen, nor has anyone mentioned, until after this DoW regarding our involvement in this affair with ITA. I certainly haven't seen record of anyone from GGA talking to our members about this. To explain, some of our members have been using ITA for tech trades for a rather long time, they're rather reliable. Being as the ITA is rather peaceful in most cases I don't think anyone thought to check the war screens of the nations they were tech trading with. On another note, as one of the few active admins at the FCCs boards, it sometimes takes me a day or two to get around to demasking members who have left out because I have ooc issues preventing me from checking our forums. However I do agree, if someone larger than you says jump or we'll shoot you, and you don't have any protectorate agreements preventing them from doing so, you're kind of in a position where you have to say how high, or just be killed.

My fellow Cyberdenizens, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw The Onyx Hand forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.

Thirded
Blame Crymson and Saber, they're the ones holding up the Citadel merger, well that and their undying devotion to Orange. :angry:
-
Grämlins and TOP Citadel should merge. I concur.

I don't see a bright future for a recruitment thread in here.
Without any further delay. 
I hereby relinquish Cybernations

Don't really know of you or about you, but good luck with college out there. My and I'm sure the rest of the FCC's thoughts and, for those who do, prayers are with your grandfather. Adult chickenpox aka shingles, is never a good thing; my grandmother had it when she was in her mid 80s and while it was not life threatening it was not a really severe case.
Cheers.
