Duke Nukem

Hello everyone, I wanted to inform the community that last night, long time player, RedArmy passed away from complications of a surgery he recently underwent. RedArmy was a member of both Screaming Red Assess, GATO, and I believe had been in other alliances previously. RedArmy was an uncommonly kind man, and a truly genuine human being. There is a GoFundMe to pay for funeral expenses, and his family is planning a Zoom to meet his friends. If you are interested in donating or transmitting your condolences, please reach out to me on discord at WANA#0042, and I will get you connected. Warmest Regards, WANA

Reasonably good move, I guess.

"How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?" Looking forward to having some fun this war. Maybe Kersch and I will get to dance again. o/

On June 14th, 2017, after restoring my nation into Sparta, an alliance I fled to after the dissolution of MI6, I made a fateful decision. I decided to apply to GATO. I knew some of the people who called GATO home, but most I did not know. I didn't expect GATO to greet me with open arms, given my past track record, and yet she did. When I joined I had not intended to be incredibly active, instead wanting to find a home in one of the few good communities left in the game. As fate would have it, that is not the path I travelled. During the first few months I spent in GATO, elections were held, and I decided to run for a seat on GATO's High Court. That is an election I won. After my tenure on the court, I decided to take a stab at running for Assembly Chairman. I would not win that election, nor the following one, but I was afforded a place in GATO government. I persisted, and would eventually be elected to the position of Assembly Chairman for multiple different terms. Throughout all this, I can't help but feel an immense sense of gratitude towards GATO. Her halls welcomed me and nurtured me, and I have met many incredible people throughout my time in the alliance. "Strength in unity - Honour in Justice" o7 GATO

Congrats to CLAWS on their resounding victory, but props to TIE for their maturity in achieving this peace. o/

I am putting Agent Gibsonator on burn notice, he has been ex-communicated from Her Majesty's Secret Intelligence Service.

I thought Pacifica cleansed this world of trash. Guess we’ll have to do our part to save the environment as well.

Peace in our times!

A long time ago, several adventures entered the land we know as Planet Bob. They all took their own paths and found legend and loot a plenty. As fate would have it, these adventurers would find themselves in a bar known as Secret Bar Funtime. There, they regaled each other of the paths they had beaten, the monsters they had slain, and the maidens they had bedded. After a great deal of mead had been consumed, there was a call from within the group to form a party. Each of these adventurers, who had walked their own paths, decided to party up and travel the same road. Thus, they rolled for initiative. On a personal note, I'd like to thank all of the governments that came together to make this bloc a reality.

Congrats on the merge.

When in the course of cyber events, it becomes necessary for one alliance to dissolve the political bands that have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of Planet Bob, the separate and equal station to which the laws of admin and of Bob's admin entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of cyberkind requires that they should declare the causes which compel them to separation. We hold these truths to be self evident, that all nations are created equal, that they are endowed by admin with certain unalienable rights, that among these are sovereignty, protection, and the pursuit of one's ideals. That to secure these rights, an Assembly Chairman shall be instituted among the Assembly, deriving his just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any political tie becomes unnecessary of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new ties, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them to secure justice and honour. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that ties long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown, that cyberkind is more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of complaints and grievances, pursuing invariably the same object envinces a a design to reduce them under absolute control, it is their right, it is their duty to, to throw off such a tie and to provide new ties for future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these members of the General Assembly; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their Foreign Affairs. The history of this bloc has been one of complaints and grievances, all having in direct object the establishment of a system of control over GATO. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world. /s/ The General Assembly WANA: Assembly Chairman Laserwolf: Deputy Assembly Chairman Wes: Minister of Domestic Affairs Tevron: Minister of Foreign Affairs Crv24: Minister of Finance Dre4mwe4ver: Minister of Defense TL;DR: GATO is departing from C&G

Brewers Sucks Accords Preamble: The Independent Republic of Orange Nations (henceforth IRON) and Global Alliance and Treaty Organization (henceforth GATO) agree to these honourable accords. Article I: Another Catnap, the Irony! In commemoration of August 21st, 2006, IRON & GATO will not attack each other, and will attempt to seek peaceful resolutions for their problems through the healthy medium of walls of text. Both alliances agree not to roll Brewers for using @everyone too much, probably. Article II: A & B I think this is the clause where we normally talk about maintaining CNtel accounts, but I think it’s probably down? IRON & GATO (Henceforth IG-88) agree to share their consciousnesses, especially in regard to those things that could cause problems for either party, short- or long-term. Article III: Inessential Redundant and Superfluous Claws Clause IG-88 can attack or defend itself from other entities. Article IV: Ironing it Out In six meownths IG-88 shall meet up again. If we’re still admironing each other we should upgrade, maybe buy a shiny new comb or I heard something about carbon baths... Article V: Magnum to Eighty-Eight Either partition of IG-88 may tear this up, but it will certainly also tear up our cold metallic hearts. 48 hours notice is required, and 48 hours of additional effect is just common courtesy gents. /s/ For GATO The General Assembly Assembly Chairman: WANA Deputy Assembly Chairman: Laserwolf Minister of Foreign Affairs: Tevron Minister of Defense: Dre4mwe4ver Minister of Domestic Affairs: Wes Minister of Finance: Dragonsphyre Advisors: Levon, Greywall, Crv24 /s/ For IRON The Warrior, President, IRON Councilor Rhizoctonia, Secretary of State, IRON Councilor Blade 619, Minister of Defense, IRON Councilor Hertt, Minister of Internal Affairs, IRON Councilor Mandarijn, Minister of the Vault, IRON Councilor

Started playing in 2008, started in VE, now i'm leading GATO. Life is strange.

The Global Alliance and Treaty Organization has recently held elections, and a new government has been elected to run the alliance for the next three months. It is my great pleasure to have been afforded the privilege to serve as Assembly Chairman of the Global Alliance and Treaty Organization, and I am looking forward to a successful term with the men and women who I have asked to join me in running GATO this term. Without further ado, this is our government lineup.

Glad to see yall make your appearance.

This conflict is really pretty simple, and as an alliance we are more than willing to move on as soon as LSF gives us their commitment to no longer support Harry. As for Tywin, you’re more than welcome to move to a new sphere if you think GATO is treating you unfairly.

For someone who doesn't play CN anymore, he really still seems intent on destroying an in-game entity.

For those of you who are wondering what happened, MI6 decided to coup their government because Chim's ego was hurt just a little bit. Chimaera and his cronies have decided that because we don't like Chimaera, we're no longer fit to be in office. If there is anyone who didn't think MI6 was a joke, I'm pretty sure they've just reached new heights.

I actually have no idea what you're talking about. In fact, I actually quite like you, Roq. I very much enjoyed being in Bal Masque with you. I just think you sold out to go back to leading Umbrella, whom were your mortal enemies when you and I were comrades. I don't know your reasoning, and perhaps it's valid, but you and I sort of lost touch when we went our separate ways.

And actually, to revise my above statement a bit, I don't dislike Pacifica, I dislike certain members of Pacifica who saw fit to harass me and act in a very negative manner to me. There are plenty of members of NPO that I think are great people and who I very much like, people like BNO, Scourge, Italia, Apple, Lord Valleo, and I could go on.

Funny enough, I just answered my own question. There's a reason Paraguas and later Bal Masque existed.

When have I gone after Pacifica in back channels, Roq? I make no bones about it, I don't like Pacifica. However, tell me this, if someone treats you very badly for a number of years, would you also not harbor some resentment?

I think I have the capability to act reasonably. Am I particularly happy you guys dec'd on us? No. Do I believe that you guys have the only thing approaching a legitimate CB for this war? Yes.

Wasn't really an insult, simply a statement. TBC is about 2.5 mil NS compared to Polar's 10 mil and Non Grata's 5+ mil.
