Good show. Welcome to blue! The more the merrier. Best of luck guys.

Congrats on the growth fellas

wait wait wait wait... lets put this all together So, your saying that ODN, part of of the largest military supercluster in CN history who is regularly in the top 10 for economic efficiency, still hasn't figured out how to effectively deal with ghosts? Whats that say for their military ability? Second of all why are they getting the attention in this thread? This thread is clearly a milestone thread. Who derailed it. Give CnG failure a whole thread of its own please.

[quote name='Ardus' timestamp='1283834635' post='2444905'] I noticed, but decided to respond to you anyway since dev0's follow-up was so catastrophically bad that it wasn't worth meriting a direct response. [/quote] Oh cmon. The image is fun. Drawn to scale too =) Think I used it too early though. Should have saved it for a decent argument.

[quote]Point #1) NATO surrendered February 20th, 2010. Every member state of CnG continued to fight on the most devastating front of any war in history until April 4th, 2010. This means the differences in efficiency since "the end of the war" for NATO are bolstered by over an extra month of reconstruction time for NATO and over an extra month of devastation for every alliance in the comparison group. Your benchmark is disingenuous. That you mock ODN for reconstructing over a half-million infrastructure in the wake of a war that lasted weeks longer for them than you is shameful.[/quote] If by reconstruction you mean paying reps for several months i suppose your dead on. We were paying reps to alliances other than CnG while you were still fighting. Also if you compare our membership you would most likely see a significant decline in NATO membership as the fat has been cut away. If im not mistaken we've lost about 50 members net total. So more with less even, with us picking up GUN members we have fewer than before the war. [quote]Point #3) I can only laugh at the phrase "despite being on the receiving end of reparations." While reparations are indeed a positive they are incredibly inefficient. It is very common for slots to remain open waiting on a reparation shipment.[/quote] We actually had to wait forever to get our list of targets from FoB... like months... Regardless of how we got our NS, ANS, Tech and Nukes. We have it. Something Vanguard can't say, so keep flying that flag sir. Atleast NATO hasn't folded up shop due to the level of suck that you guys must have experienced. Man the quality has poured into MK lately... [img]http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/2278/mariotubes1.jpg[/img] Get it? The poo commentary leaves MK. And then it turns around and comes right back in the other tube!

EDIT: Doublepost glitched. Edited the second one read below =)

[quote name='Ardus' timestamp='1283804277' post='2444246'] So a bunch of GUNners join you and you celebrate it as efficiency, success, and proof that all criticism against you is incorrect. Never change. [/quote] Kinda like when that other CnG alliance merged into MK? Yeah i suppose so.

[quote name='Lord Fingolfin' timestamp='1283803941' post='2444240'] 31 isn't greater than 2x18, so no, you haven't doubled your ANS. However, congratulations, very impressive. I was rather puzzled by you guys going to far in the WAE contest. Good luck NATO [/quote] Absolutely correct. The math is strong with this one. Thanks and edited.

[center][u][b][size="6"]Disaster Strikes[/size][/b][/u] The North Atlantic Treaty Organization has several important announcements for you to salivate over today in its current state of emergency. That's right; a state of emergency has been declared in NATO today. Spies? Internal Turmoil? General Fail, you ask? All this and more! NATO has recently been hit by a FailNATO [a tornado, Watergate and tailgating all rolled into one] and herein is the current damage report! Will NATO survive another day? Read on, I say! [img]http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/5077/avoidingtornado1.jpg[/img] [u][b]Damage Report[/b][/u] To show how much damage has been done. Let's take a quick gander at NATO a short while back to pre-failNATO 2010 (3 months and 2 weeks should do the trick). The stats for NATO as of 05/22/2010 place us at a total of [u]2,742,921[/u] total Nation Strength, [u]18,286[/u] ANS, with [u]680[/u] nukes and an alliance score of [u]11.11[/u]. Ahh...such were the golden days of NATO, but no more folks....no more. [size="6"][u][b]Current Stats Breakdown:[/b][/u][/size] [img]http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/6178/natostats.jpg[/img] [u][b]Nation Strength Decimation[/b][/u] With steady growth, excellent showings in multiple survivor series and recent additions from Global United Nations, NATO has been decimated in its efforts to grow its total Nation Strength. In fact on September 5, 2010 we even re-passed 4 million nation strength, totaling 1,257,059 NS growth in 14 weeks (31% gain from our starting strength). [u][b]Average Nation Strength Plummet[/b][/u] NATO's ANS has nearly doubled in 14 weeks. Going from 18k ANS to just over 31k ANS at its current state. If things don't turn around soon, the stock market fail may cause a complete economic shutdown in our corner of the Blue sphere. Hopefully the pandemic can be contained! [u][b]Nuclear Reserves are Dwindling[/b][/u] During the same 14 week period mentioned previously, the North Atlantic Treaty Organizations nuclear stockpiles have been monitored closely and irregularities have been found. [img]http://i688.photobucket.com/albums/vv246/devowin/CN/stockpiles.jpg[/img] Yes, that's right. Stockpiles have nearly doubled in the fields of NATO and the housing structures are nearly full; what the hell will we do with the overflow??? [u][b]Alliance Score[/b][/u] Alliance score is a particularly sore area for the bums of the Blue sphere right now. On August 11, 2010 NATO rejoined the [url=http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=11169&view=findpost&p=2412056]Sanction Race[/url] and has since taken a solid point of lead from the add line and passed two alliances on its path to ultimate failure. NATO's current alliances score is just over 15 points. It's great to be back to double digits. [u][b]Total Damage Report:[/b][/u] The total damage inflicted has left NATO and her esteemed relics tainted for the remainder of their shallow existence. It is for these combined reasons that NATO can proudly boast one thing domestically and abroad... [img]http://img109.mytextgraphics.com/sparklee/2010/08/22/fe00b5f036dfa3316079d9f150e94d3b.gif[/img] YES folks, you guessed it. With the support of the outspoken citizens of Bob and the great Mashedpotato Kingdom, NATO was recently voted runner up for Worst Alliance Ever (WAE)! It was a complete shock for us as we couldn't have hoped to even make the top 10 let alone top 3! So we would like to take this time to thank our gracious contest hosts over at MK and all of our faithful followers that voted for us. But lookout Legion, 'cause I hear WAE Season 2 is coming and this time we won't be caught with our pants down... We're campaigning. =) So don't forget folks: Vote NATO for WAE2[/center]

Congrats SNAFU

This announcement only makes me think one thing: BILL, BILL, BILL, BILL, BILL, BILL, BILL NYE..... the Science guy... Good luck guys =)
