National Alliance of Arctic Countries

The great network migration is finally over! Had to change the DNS settings last night, it can take up to 24 hours for the DNS records to resolve, although at least for the few DNS servers I have checked they were updated. Give it 24 hours and it should be fine, if it isn't working for you already.

I could bore you with all the technical details of VMI and ACPI clock sync's in the Ubuntu kernel... or I could just say I think I fixed the "lockup" issue and it should all be good. Edit: the one thing I do have to add, now that the server has been all upgraded and if I have proved stability (if it lasts more than 24 hours, the cpu clock issue happens pretty fast) then I plan on doing a pretty major network move, changing the VLAN the server sits in and then moving it to a whole new ip. When that happens there may be another outage while the DNS changes propagate.

Not a bandwidth problem, the server got moved to a VM and when pagefiles go unused ESX canabalizes the memory, so when it gets requested it absolute sucks. Trying to figure out a solution, should hopefully be up and working again by tomorrow. Sorry for the outage.

Speaking of which (sorry about that btw)... There will be some downtime in the next week or 2, not exactly sure when. I am setting up a new box with ESXi and will be virtualizing this server as well as a few others on to a single box. Right now this box just has 12 gigs total on it, the new virtual server will have 100 gigs and growable to whatever. But when I do the move there will be a bit of downtime, I am creating a brand new VM image for this box since the OS version that this is currently running on is like 5 years old, so I will just move over the /var/www/ folders (which will pull over the UEvil directory) so either there will be no downtime noticed but you MAY have to re-upload your latest files (depending on when I pull over and when I go live) or there may be a short hour or 2 where the server is down when I am moving files. Either way, it will be back up and running afterwards no problem, just wanted to give a heads up.

I tried to delete Diskord.... AND I WIN THE THREAD BECAUSE I ACTUALLY DID IT.

Why wait until next year?

Why are you so lazy?

I hereby declare MORON a protectorate of IDIOT... and by protectorate I mean "tech farm." So if you attack MORON we will attack you for attacking our tech farm, only we get to attack MORON. At least, if we had coordination we would. Also 3rdly, AirMe you still have root admin on the IDIOT boards, so you can create a subforum there for MORON, in fact I think that would be epic.

First of all, good lord, how did my lulz alliance turn in to the #1 ranked alliance in the game, if nothing else this shows the awesomeness of TE. 2nd of all, since IDIOT's founding principle is "Quantity > Quality" you will have to forgive a majority of the members of IDIOT that don't 'get it' when it comes to TE... it's one of the downsides of our policy but meh, we live with it. 3rd of all, WHAT A HELL PEOPLE!?!?! Seriously, !@#$%*ing over treaties and friends and everything else??? As official Lunch Lady of IDIOT and the Brakeman for this short bus I am hereby pulling the handle and bringing this train wreck to a screeching halt. I need to clarify a few things: 1) If we have a blood pact treaty that says we will defend you forever to the end of the earth, you can read this as: "You are our friend only as long as it serves our best interest, because our goal is total world domination and everyone that isn't in IDIOT is our enemy." This has been and continues to be a founding principle of IDIOT, we will lie, cheat, steal, backstab and otherwise completely exploit the masses for our personal gain (or destruction, either really is fine, as long as it involves exploitation it's all good). IDIOT is friends with no one and enemies of all in terms of "long term" planning. You can use us, we will use you, we are just up front about it. This means IDIOT members - if someone is backstabbing, lying and generally out trickerating us, well then we failed in our mission to out trickerate them first and we just need to try harder, not !@#$%* and moan about it. 2) If you are an enemy of IDIOT welcome to the club, see point 1, everyone is the enemy of IDIOT. The only way to not be an enemy of IDIOT is to wear the IDIOT AA. If we whisper sweet nothings in your ear and tell you we love you long time, well thats what we call pillow talk baby... we just want to use your body. 3) Seriously, what a hell. Supposedly there is "organization" and "structure" inside IDIOT today??? When did that ever get approved, and how did it get approved, IDIOT is controlled chaos not a place for democratic representation? The founding principles of IDIOT as an alliance also apply to internal politics and structure as well, if you want promoted then just kill the person in front of you, slander them, and generally destroy them. Think House Harkonen, only because we play CN we are twice as fat and have half the patience. Uhm, thats about all, I probably should have posted it on the internal forums, but that would require me to remember what they were, and wouldn't have generated nearly the lulz that posting on the big boards would, plus I suspect more IDIOT members will read it here than there anyway. Thats about all, in about t-minus 10 minutes AirMe will come in, smooth things over with all our "friends" and try and once again fix my $%&@ups, thats his official job. But this state of the alliance address needed to be heard, too much politicing and not enough fighting is going on on this here boards. Instead of whining and complaining you should be TROLL TROLL TROLLING! That would be much more IDIOTarific. Also, hello.

Alliance Government: AirMe & Diskord Alliance Treaties: MADP w/ Citadel, @war with everyone else they just don't know it yet.

Alrighty, I'm back from vacation and glad to see that it didn't totally die while I was gone, thanks to all who did updates while I was out. Also, I'm proud to see the alliance I cofounded able to jump in to 1st place while the extent of my contribution was getting sun tanned and downing large quantities of drinks.

Agreed. Although I would love to see CE adopt a "forced recruitment" policy like IDIOT, that would make us forced recruitment blood brothers o/

Uhm, WTH? I have posted an updated sanction race, with actual stats, for the last... 4 days, in the other thread. Duplicate thread is duplicate. http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?s...st&p=891068 is the same post as this, only accurate data, and historical data as well...

September 5, 2008 1 The Superfriends: 18.03 --> 18.54 (+0.51) 2 IDIOT: 13.25 --> 14.50 (+1.25) 3 Orange Juice: 13.32 --> 14.03 (+0.71) 4 The Citadel: 11.43 --> 11.45 (+0.02) 5 National Alliance of Arctic Countries: 11.57 --> 11.28 (-0.29) 6 The Pacific Army: 9.50 --> 9.35 (-0.15) 7 Murder Inc.: 5.44 --> 5.64 (+0.20) 8 United White: 5.14 --> 5.10 (-0.04) 9 Multicolored Cross-X Alliance: 6.09 --> 5.07 (-1.02) 10 Viridia: 3.94 --> 4.08 (+0.14) 11 Duckroll: 4.09 --> 4.06 (-0.03) 12 Lazy Penguin Eaters: 4.13 --> 3.96 (-0.17) Crimson Empire: 3.37 --> 3.52 (+0.15) Pond Pirates: 3.54 --> 3.51 (-0.01) Sparta: 3.47 --> 3.47 (-nc) Aqua Defense Alliance 3.27 --> 3.28 (+0.01) Grand Global Alliance:3.16 --> 3.08 (-0.08) Dinner Naked: 3.06 --> 2.99 (-.07) ---------- Add Line: 2.98 Vox Populi: 3.06 --> 2.82 (-0.24) FOK: 2.61 --> 2.63 (+0.02) ADULT: 2.58 --> 2.52 (-0.06) ---------- Drop Line: 2.48 Biggest Gainer IDIOT: (+1.25) Biggest Loser Multicolored Cross-X Alliance: (-1.02) Passes of the Day IDIOT passes Orange Juice The Citadel passes National Alliance of Arctic Countries Murder Inc. passes Multicolored Cross-X Alliance United White passes Multicolored Cross-X Alliance Viridia passes Lazy Penguin Eaters Viridia passes Duckroll Duckroll passes Lazy Penguin Eaters Crimson Empire passes Sparta Crimson Empire passes Pond Pirates Dinner Naked passes Vox Populi Commentary For the third straight day IDIOT claims biggest gainer of the day, again posting solid gains of over a point. The war with IDIOT seems to be catching up with MCXA, as they dropped over a point today pushing those 2 alliances further apart in the rankings. In Citadel's war with the NAAC they didn't really have to do anything today to pass them, by merely holding on to their score they saw the NAAC slide below them as they continue to take heavy damages over in the NAAC. After an impressive appearance on to the list for Aqua Defense Force their growth seems to have come to a halt, marking the stop of one of the fastest rising alliances on the list. The Crimson Empire tho continues it's rapid ascension, putting itself next in line for a sanction should any of the alliances that are currently sanctioned stumble. Overall it was a fairly good day for TE specific alliances, while the CN:S crossover alliances continue to struggle. It appears that more and more people are finding TE to be a different game than CN:S, and that is a good thing for all of us playing. ETA: I am leaving for holiday tonight, so this will be the last update I do for about 9 days, if someone else would like to keep it updated while I am gone, that would be great.

Agreed, this is awesome for our allies in CE. Although this does put Citadel in a weird position, they now have a MADP with an alliance (MCXA) that is under attack by one of their own blood brothers (CE). Schizophrenic much there Cit? But o/ evilness and all things of that ilk in TE.

Well said Bama. My motto, similar to Arctic's is: If you aren't having fun your doin it rong. Seriously, IDIOT is a conglomeration of people some of whom I consider "mortal enemies" in CN:S, I've spent nearly 2.5 years fighting against them and their cause, but in CN:TE we are working together and having fun. Likewise, the alliance I plan for IDIOT to attack next has a lot of great friends of mine in it (no, don't worry Arctic, curbstomps is so NOT cool in CN:TE so it's not u), and that is WHY I will attack them... because at the end of the day if I end up anarchying them I can spend the next few days teasing them in IRC/Messenger, if my attack fails, then I can spend the next few days claiming how I will send down vengeance upon their heads... either way it will be great! I kinda wish that CN:S alliance names weren't even allowed in CN:TE. Check em at the door, use this as an opportunity to get to know others in this larger community that we share. Take on a different RP role. If you are the evil oppressor in CN:S, try fighting as the outgunned underdog in CN:TE and make ridiculously long posts about honor and friendship and never surrendering. If you are one of the "Friends > Infra" in CN:S, backstab, betray and be a supreme evildoer in CN:TE... it doesn't matter, it all goes away in 90 days! The point is have fun and introduce yourselves to more of the community. Expand beyond your CN:S horizons and get to know others, I promise if you do that alone, everything else will fall in to place. /rant

Details details details.... IDIOT's are not bothered by such trivial things as "facts" or "game mechanics"

It is my duty to inform you that, due to your leaderships wonderful negotiating skills and high levels of respect that they had for those of us who tried to contact them, we have great progress to announce in our war. We approached MCXA leadership stating that we didn't want to drive anyone from the game, that we were hoping to have fun here on TE, and that we realized we had mostly killed all of MCXA already so continuing this war served no purpose. We didn't ask for reps (can't) and we didn't even ask for much of anything, put a few lulz items for surrendering and basically it boiled down to you just have to make a post stating that you lost a war to a pack of IDIOT's... mainly because we found that humorous. Instead, your leaders decided to rant and rave about how they were going to kill us, made threats to our CN:S nations (seriously people, 2 separate games CN:S is not CN:TE!) and in general just acted like asshats. So we in IDIOT are introducing a new policy, it's the "Leave no MCXA trade behind" policy. Every 3 days, for the next 21 days, 10 random MCXA nations will be sanctioned. These sanctions won't ever be lifted, and after 21 days every single MCXA nation will be sanctioned on the blue team. The only way to get the sanction lifted off of your nation is either to 1) vote in your own senator (good luck) 2) move off of Blue before you get sanctioned or 3) hope that MCXA pursues peace before you get sanctioned. Any sanctions placed BEFORE peace is reached will be NON-NEGOTIABLE in peace talks, they will remain in place forever (basically you better poke your leaders to get their act together here) and the ONLY way to get the sanction removed after it has been placed will be to change your AA to IDIOT. Have fun! /s/ Diskord the Lunch Lady PS (Sorta OOC) I am leaving for DisneyWorld in about 24 hours and will be out of the game for about 2 weeks, this policy can be overturned by AirMe at his leisure, he isn't nearly as mean as I am so you can appeal to the kindness of his heart (mine is dead, cold, and black as night). But yeah, good luck with that.

September 4, 2008 1 The Superfriends: 17.83 --> 18.03 (+0.20) 2 Orange Juice: 13.01 --> 13.32 (+0.31) 3 IDIOT: 11.04 --> 13.25 (+2.21) 4 National Alliance of Arctic Countries: 11.74 --> 11.57 (-0.17) 5 The Citadel: 10.92 --> 11.43 (+0.51) 6 The Pacific Army: 9.25 --> 9.50 (+0.25) 7 Multicolored Cross-X Alliance: 5.88 --> 6.09 (+0.21) 8 Murder Inc.: 5.32 --> 5.44 (+0.12) 9 United White: 5.53 --> 5.14 (-0.39) 10Lazy Penguin Eaters: 3.74 --> 4.13 (+0.39) 11 Duckroll: 4.21 --> 4.09 (-0.12) 12Viridia: 3.71 --> 3.94 (+0.23) 13 Pond Pirates: 3.63 --> 3.54 (-0.09) 14 Sparta: 3.55 --> 3.47 (-0.08) 15 Crimson Empire: 3.46 --> 3.37 (-0.09) 16 Aqua Defense Alliance 2.87 --> 3.27 (+0.40) 17 Grand Global Alliance: 3.24 --> 3.16 (-0.08) 18 Vox Populi: 3.08 --> 3.06 (-0.02) 19 Dinner Naked: 3.06 --> 3.06 (nc) ---------- Add Line: 2.95 FOK: 2.60 --> 2.61 (+0.01) ADULT: 2.57 --> 2.58 (+0.01) ---------- Drop Line: 2.45 Rattopojat OY: 2.39 --> 2.34 (-0.05) Biggest Gainer IDIOT: (+2.21) Biggest Loser United White: (-0.39) Passes of the Day IDIOT passes National Alliance of Arctic Countries Murder Inc. passes United White Lazy Penguin Eaters passes Duckroll Aqua Defense Alliance passes Grand Global Alliance Aqua Defense Alliance passes Vox Populi Aqua Defense Alliance passes Dinner Naked Commentary While the biggest gainer of the day is an impressive trouncing by IDIOT (they gained 1.75 points more than the 2nd largest gainer) the other impressive news is how quickly Aqua Defense Alliance is shooting up the chart. They only passed the add line yesterday to make an appearance on the charts, and they continue their rapid rise in the rankings passing 3 alliances today. We also bid farewell to Rattopojat OY, we hardly knew you. I'm not sure what is going on over in United White, they are at war with a small blue alliance called Fightin Division but they seem to be doing okay in those wars, so I am not sure what precipitated this massive drop in the rankings for them today. It was not a good day to be a "non sanctioned" alliance as only the Aqua Defense Force managed to post positive gains. It was a case of the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer today as the gap between sanctioned and unsanctioned grew. In war news, OJ's assault on Citadel didn't really do much to slow down Citadel's growth rate, as they earned 2nd largest gainer of the day awards despite now being involved in day 3 of the war with OJ. But OJ hasn't seemed overly impacted by the war either as they posted healthy gains for the day as well. MCXA showed decent growth for the first time in a few days despite fighting overwhelming odds against the IDIOT's. Finally the SuperFriends seem to still be having their way with the NAAC nations, as SF keeps up the growth while NAAC is in danger of falling another spot if the Citadel can keep up their growth.

You sir sound like someone that IDIOT needs to recruit, because this man is [DOIN IT RITE]

Too late, I already enticed him to declare on me, before he could even attack me I put him in anarchy... it was a nice try tho
