The CN team really dropped the ball here. With a brand new in-game feature being introduced and all these "xp farming" wars being declared, would it not have been incredibly more logical to conclude that the rules regarding this new feature probably weren't clear enough? why assume that all these people suddenly decided to intentionally start breaking the rules and go straight to in-game warnings?

alliance leaders can give other nations power to approve/ban members. they can appoint alliance heirs in case they ever delete. they can make their alliance open to all people if they don't want to be bothered with approving people. also, new nations that set their alliance to one that required approval will still show that alliance under their nation bio, it'll just say "pending" under it.

30 member or 300 member, whats so hard about sending out notices to your members and asking them to check their nations once a week? i imagine u already have a pre-made list that makes this incredibly quick and easy.

if alliance leaders start sending out advanced notice now to be on the look out for this change and advance notice when a specific date/time is finally announced, it shouldn't even take anywhere close to 25 days. really that hard to ask even the most inactive members to check in once or twice a week for the next 1-2 months?

The very-short term annoyance of having to get everyone back onto the alliance should not be a big factor in deciding whether to go through with these changes or not. with plenty of advance notice of a specific time/date that this is going to be implemented, alliances will have ample opportunity to prepare themselves and their membership for the change. they can post announcements on the owf listing who their protected members are, they can add something to their nation bio to reference their alliance membership, etc.

u can't forget to congratulate something that doesn't exist

good luck to all involved! lets have an enjoyable war with no complaints. just a good ol fashion slugfest.

congrats and good luck going forward

may FEAR prosper under this leadership

The most necessary change for TE is how the prizes are awarded. awarding prizes for highest NS goes against everything TE is suppose to be about. it encourages all the ills that currently plague TE. uneven wars, war dodging, constant bickering on these boards. frankly its what drives so many people away. change the system to reward the most successful fighters / honorable fighters / constant fighters.....some of type of formula that takes all this into account. might not get this formula right the 1st time, but thats what TE is for, to try new stuff out. just doesn't make sense to me that a nation's final NS is what is used to measure its success.

never let anyone know what you're thinking

congrats to TJL and their new treaty partner

thanks for the bump joy

woo hoo, nice to have it official. one good thing about this past war was getting to find AA's that were good fighters and good peeps.

much congrats!

thats a bit of an understatement :)

Lumina Sanguis Sengoku - Aurora Borealis Treaty Amongst the battered shields and ragged armor, the crimson blood, and the shadow of crows, a light shines. Not an ordinary light, but a striking red beacon illuminating the arena. As the dust settles, we find the red hue to be strewn across us, on the backs of our shirts to the soles of our feet. It is that light that encompasses us, filling every vein and artery with its power until we become one with it. We are the light that shines down unto the land, from the sleepy villages to the decaying battlefields. We are Lumina Sanguis. Article I: Non-Aggression The signatories agree to respect their mutual sovereignty and not to engage in espionage or aggressive military, economic, or diplomatic acts toward one another. Article II: Intelligence and Aid The signatories shall share all relevant information with one another, and shall provide aid of a financial, informational, or diplomatic nature upon request. Article III: Defense Should one signatory come under attack, the other will defend them. Should a signatory initiate or engage in aggressive attacks to honor another treaty, then the obligatory status of this clause becomes void. Article IV: Optional Aggression If a signatory engages in hostile activities with another alliance, the other signatory is encouraged but not required to provide military assistance. Article V: Cancellation Should one party decide to withdraw from this pact for whatever reason, it may be terminated 48 hours after the other signatory has been notified.

[quote name='Omniscient1' timestamp='1358836151' post='3083339'] I'm not sure if this is a joke or not, but it isn't like our alliance done anything your allies in GOONS done to CSN. Except we didn't make promises to protect TOP after our mutual decision to seek out other paths. It's great that our paths meet again. [/quote] glad they haven't pointed out that Sengoku is made up of omfg/bn nations
