[After The War: Best Alliance to Join?]

Actually Goon Order of Neutral Shoving still has like 4 members, so it's possible they might make a comeback. And probably NSO, FAN, and TDO will do the best.

[The Amazing Sanction Race]

We gained 0.32 points. It just doesn't sound right to me, I'm strongly opposed to using decimals.

^^The real update

Lol, didn't I say when I updated was what it was exactly at noon? Do you mean the update at 10:00 PM instead of at noon?

Commentary

Sparta keeps its crown as highest score of CN while the New Pacific Order continues its daily shed of members and a pretty big 50 centipoint loss isn't as bad - as there is still a five point buffer between them and the New Polar Order.

Independent Republic of Orange Nations however, wasn't so lucky (again!). Dropping 54 centipoints, and shedding members as well, 3 to be exact, they also fell behind Farkistan to be in 9th place. If they continue shedding 50 or more centipoints each day, look for them to be behind Green Protection Agency tomorrow, who has been losing not as quite as much, and then a few days after that, look for IRON to be behind Ragnarok, and FOK in one fell swoop in about two or so days.

Global Radiation Level spiked up 32 centipoints, overriding yesterday's 20 centipoint gain.

Apparently, most alliances didn't go up or down more than 20 centipoints, so today was mostly average except for IRON and NPO's continuing losses.

Props to The Dark Evolution and Random Insanity Alliance who saved themselves so narrowly the Drop yesterday, went below the line today today.

Ragnarok dropped below GPA and FOK to be in twelth place though retaining their sanction. They will most likely be in eleventh place soon, though.

That's probably it. If it's not covered here, it's still covered - just not in Commentary.

End of line.

[The Amazing Sanction Race]

Going nicely. I am rooting for TOOL to get sanctioned if it's not losing score. I hope Gramlins recovers.

[Hai FAN!]

Wow, FAN. You're rebuilding at an astonishing rate. Maybe you'll pass the NPO, the worst alliance in Cybernations.

[Is Sparta ruining the game?]

I don't see anything wrong with Sparta, they don't dictate the Black Team like the NPO does Red. Then again my nation has only been around for a month.

[When will the NPO surrender?]

I think they'll disband in an \m/ type situation.

[Declaration of Existence]

Nice work on another new alliance.

o/ Realm and your protectorate when you get one.

[FAN Victory Lap]

Awesome. I can see FAN's strength is literally going almost straight up in the your alliance statistics.

NPO, I hate you!!!!

[Official IRON Announcement]

So are you out of the Karma War now or just peace between these two?

o/ IRON.
