Gears of War

REALLY? With all of DRDavid Banner's ghosts I would have expected ODN to surge ahead in score.

Congrats; I love the title.

So are you not disputing Sponge's claim then?

Add my name please. Gears of War

Now see this is something you can tell your friends at school about. Or not.

Well I haven't had any personal contact with the leader in question, but the OP was an interesting read. The thing that struck me the most from this thread is that it seems a great many people who have absolutely no idea what the phrase "Greatest Hits" means; [OOC]you might want to look it up before you buy any CDs with the name "Greatest Hits" in their titles, otherwise you'll be shocked that they actually contain OLD songs[/OOC].

It's been fun GRAN, too bad things didn't work out. And we wish you the best of luck in the future as well. No members of Avalanche below the rank of Lord may post in this thread.

They shall descend upon you; the warriors of the FOKking Kingdom screaming their battle cry, "Dutch Shrooms!". And you will know fear. Congrats on the treaty guys.

This is a treaty we can all get behind.

Voted Nemesis.

I applaud VE for this move. Good luck in the future.

A big congrats to GR.

Good to see our friends in NV offering a helping hand to a smaller alliance.

I'm glad this could be worked out. Bob

The IGV seriously has the worst PR machine on Planet Bob, just when the OP makes them look better by comparison Degenerate comes in and completely ruins it. Somebody get Dephire in here and let's get this thing kicked off properly.

Just wow. Apparently IGV doesn't allow free speech UNLESS it makes them look bad.

Who needs good PR when you have a treaty with the NPO, amirite?

Imperial Green Village indeed.

Quite the mental image there. I enjoy the OP and responses, although most threads quickly become too long for me to be able to read all of them.

This is what happens to (semi-)independent thinkers when a member of the NPO owns your forum.

As has already been said, the OP in a TWiP is only half the goodness, watching people freak out throughout the rest of the thread really livens up my Monday. Keep it up.

Fry his $@! GRAN, aid thieves FTL.

Legion and ODN sitting out GWII.

Thanks to all the well wishers. Here's a bit of interesting history I dug up, it's SirDog's original application to Avalanche almost a year ago. n00b :lol: He's part of the "(And we currently have a tie for the fourth spot to be decided tomorrow)".

Avalanche Turns One! [OOC]Due to the nature of the thread much of this a bit OOC, hopefully the mods will be forgiving.[/OOC] It seems like we see two or three “Declaration of Existence” threads here every week, however many of these new alliances fail to get off the ground and eventually fade away. I am here tonight to announce the first birthday of an alliance that did not fade away, but has grown and prospered. One year ago tonight ten nations united to form Avalanche; here is the announcement http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=17138 . Six of those original nations are still in Avalanche, and I tip my hat to Lord Voss, Matteatopia, Bermania, Valves, Minion Rouse, and Arborder. When I joined eight months ago Avalanche had 30 members and 250 NS, and today we boost 73 members and almost 700 NS. We have thrived because we at Avalanche are primarily a community of friends. We strive to maintain a warm and personal community where members are not simply another number, this can be seen in our system of government in which anyone who is active in the alliance can participate in government not just the alliances “elites” and in our very generous “ask and ye shall receive” aid system that pumps tens of millions of dollars into our smaller nations every aid cycle. There are a number of people who I would like to thank for making the past year as great as it was. First, thank you to all the Avalanche government members past and present. Without their hard work and long hours in recruitment, setting up tech deals, diplomatic work when one of our n00bs raided a red nation, and generally keeping things running smoothly Avalanche would not be what it is today. Second, I would like to thank our protectors and now MDoAP partners in Greenland Republic, without their help and oversight we might not exist today. We look forward to another year of friendship. Here is the original protectorate announcement for those interested: http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?s...st&p=477966 GR Third, I would like to thank our friends in ROCK, GRAN, and other alliances who have offered their support and friendship over the past year. Keep spamming our IRC channel guys. We also just held elections and they were really, really great. The debates were excellent, the quality of the candidates was very high, and the voting was intense. And so it is with great pride that I present to you the government which will lead Avalanche into its second year: Great Lord - SirDog Lord of External Affairs - Gears of War Lord of Internal Affairs - I Am Nobody Lord of War - Minion Rouse Chancellor of the Exchequer – Bellisus Avalanche Senate: Matteatopia Lord Voss Emperor of Kings (And we currently have a tie for the fourth spot to be decided tomorrow) Come party with us in #Avalanche on Coldfront and as always please free feel to come see us at http://z9.invisionfree.com/Avalanche_Forum/index.php?act=idx .
