Imagine our utter surprise when the Don't Panic Staff managed to struggle - so, so slowly - out from under a large pile of empty bottles and stumble back to Hitchhiker HQ , only to find so many things have changed within these great halls and many exciting things are afoot. So astounded, dumbfounded, and not just a little drunk still, we completely forgot to send out our usual Christmas edition of the newsletter. Still, in order to not seem so out of date we have decided to follow the Orthodox Calender this year so technically we're only a few days out from Christmas and New Year. Yeah, that'll be a good enough excuse. Anyway, we begin 2012 with a catch up and a look out to the future: [color=#4040FF][b][size=200]Mostly Harmless News[/size][/b][/color] [color=#8000FF][b][size=150]Elections[/size][/b][/color] Government Changes: [i]By: Dynasty[/i] Julia Rose Vicious was elected for a third term as triumvir this month, causing our triumvirate not to change at all, and still consisting of Julia Rose Vicious, Doctor Doc, and gasgiant405. This month saw the resignation of our Minister of Towels, kingof theland, and the subsequent appointment of Dynasty as the new Minister of Towels. Dynasty quickly appointed Nath1194 as the Deputy Minister of Towels after assuming office. We also happened to see our Minister of Babel Fish, Cuba, leave this month, leaving his Deputy Minister of Babel Fish, Umbra, as the acting Minister of Babel Fish. The Ministries of Hitchhikers, Destructor Fleets, and Bad Poetry went unchanged this month with Anysound, Mr. Subliminal and Loki Grim, respectively, maintaining their ministerial seats and their deputies remaining the same. Last but not least, Edmonto was succeeded as Speaker by EarlofSandon. You can check out our current Government line-up below. [color=#FF0000]Triumvirate: gasgiant405, Julia Rose Vicious, Doctor Doc[/color] [color=#0000FF]Minister of Hitchhikers (Members): Anysound Deputy: RoyalGuard[/color] [color=#00FF00]Minister of Towels (Economy): Dynasty Deputy: Nath[/color] [color=#FF8000]Minister of BabelFish (Diplomacy): Vacant Deputy: Umbra [/color] [color=#8000FF]Minister of Bad Poetry (Communications): Loki Grim Deputy: wolfbrother[/color] [color=#FFFF00]Minister of Destructor Fleets (War): Mr_Subliminal Deputy: AndyDe[/color] [color=#00FFFF]Speaker of the HHA: EarlOfSandon[/color] [color=#8000FF][b][size=150]Denzin Day Memorial[/size][/b][/color] On January 4th, the MHA honored a very special and dear member of the alliance. It was three years ago that our Denzin sadly passed away and left a remarkable hole that could never be filled. As we do every year, Hitchhikers and friends gathered together to pay our respects and reflect upon our Greatest Hitchhiker. Here's a few quotes from Denzin's memorial that show just how loved and missed the great man is: [quote="WCR"] It is a testament to Denzin's legendary leadership and skills that he is still honored and remembered by many MHA members to this very day - many of whom never even had the privilege of meeting him. When the alliance gathers to discuss and debate, we do so in "Denzin Square", named after this hoopiest of froods who always spoke so honestly and openly to the alliance - whether he was a regular member or a Triumvir. So great is his legacy that these three years later - when much has changed in our world - that the alliance can still speak so fondly of this great man as if he were here only yesterday. [/quote] [quote="Ghost_Rider"] Still saddens me to this day. Such a tragic loss. RIP mate. [/quote] [quote="pudge1975"]I arrived just a little to late and was not afforded the privilege of meeting Denzin, but mentors always spoke highly of him. R.I.P to the lost Hitchhiker.[/quote] [quote="Wilhelm1908"]My fist contact with Denzin, was way back in Feb 2008, just after I had left TGE. I was being slaughtered by Tech Raiders, my RL friend Delmonte told me to come to MHA. I told him I was at war, he said he had already cleared it. The next thing I knew someone called Denzin messaged me, telling me what to do and ended with, "just remember whatever you do DON'T PANIC." Just after my attackers peaced out, one of them messaged me and said "if it wasn't for your big friends at MHA threatening us." I played dumb and wrote back pretending to know nothing about us. I did get a reply, namely "you know fine well who it was, that Denzin guy threatened to use us as target practice if we continued to attack an MHA applicant." A great man with a big heart and someone MHA will never be able to replace[/quote] [quote="Dynasty"]RIP Denzin. You are an inspiration to us all; may you live on forever in the hearts of Hitchhikers and CNers everywhere.[/quote] [quote="masterbake"]It was the group of individuals that were here because of Denzin that attracted me and many others to MHA. His name still comes up in IRC queries years after his death and I am not even in MHA any longer. The man has a very positive impact on the cybernations community as well as MHA. Take Care lost Hitchhiker[/quote] [quote="Snagglepuss"]It was a pleasure and honor knowing Denzin for the years we were in the MHA together and I'll always remember the work and effort he gave to this alliance. A great hitchhiker and a great friend indeed.[/quote] [center][url=http://mostlyharmlessalliance.com/viewtopic.php?f=986&t=23280][size=150][color=#4040FF][b]If you'd like to view more comments or add your own, please click here.[/size][/b][/color][/url][/center] [color=#40BF00][b][size=150]Belated Christmas Article:[/size][/b][/color] [img]http://i1177.photobucket.com/albums/x345/Tormented_Donut/47.png[/img] As mentioned, we were so busy with that war nonsense and seasonal festivities, the MHA was unable to get our usual Christmas edition out on time and spread our Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster fueled holiday cheer. Yes, even while at war against several alliances, the MHA were still the hoopy frood, celebratory folk we always have been. As for the delay, perhaps we can't blame it [i]all[/i] on the war - that wouldn't be fair. Perhaps we also hit the booze just a little too hard, a little too early? Perhaps we were all still waiting in line in department stores trying to get the latest "cool" toy so our rude, snot-nosed, spoilt nephew can have another thing he uses to avoid going outside and getting exercise.... Ahem. Anyway, while the year is still young we'd like to wish all of you nation rulers out there in Planet Bob a very happy and productive 2012. And for those of you who received a lump of coal in your stockings, better luck next Christmas. [color=#BF0000][b][size=150]New Year's Resolutions Revealed:[/size][/b][/color] As is customary for the end of a year, we sent out an invitation to many of Planet Bob's alliance leaders and notable characters to write down their New Year's resolutions for 2012. We wanted to know what hopes and dreams do the movers and shakers of this world have in mind. Unfortunately everyone forgot to sign their names so you'll just have to work out for yourselves whom these belong to: [img]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j172/billtemple/DontPanic/NYR-UMB.gif[/img] [img]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j172/billtemple/DontPanic/NYR-TOP.gif[/img] [img]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j172/billtemple/DontPanic/NYR-RV.gif[/img] [img]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j172/billtemple/DontPanic/NYR-MK.gif[/img] [img]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j172/billtemple/DontPanic/NYR-IRON.gif[/img] [img]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j172/billtemple/DontPanic/NYR-ALL.gif[/img] [color=#8000FF][b][size=150]Post-War Commentary[/size][/b][/color] War is going to burn your infra and shed those disloyal to the alliance - this is to be expected. No one is going to give you a Nobel Prize in Science for suggesting that prior to the war that MHA was unprepared for a long and losing conflict; that we had many nations who were inactive and leeching off of our AA; that we simply had never been in a losing position before. But in our eyes at least - those comments now refer to the MHA of the past - the MHA prior to this war. Such comments will be irrelevant to the MHA we become. Indeed, what the war has produced is a new kind of Hitchhiker Spirit. A reawakened, prepared, loyal group. It is with no small amount of irony that we note how those who attacked us have all been in this very same positions once or twice (or thrice) before themselves. What we chose to do in our future is still to come, but what's true right now - is that we can see a bright future and a long, long existence ahead for the MHA. We hold no ill-will towards those who attacked us. Even MK have been welcomed, active posters in our forums again. We won't become the bitter, angry, revenge-driven monsters that others have become. We won't fill every discussion not about us about how so-and-so did this, so-and-so did that to us. You won't see the usual bile and verbal diarrhea that is customary for those who cannot accept their loss and defeat. As always, we will hold our heads high and simply move on. Whatever hope there was to destroy MHA can be forgotten; the Hitchhiker [i]will[/i] rise again. [color=#8000FF][b][size=150]Shout Out To Some Brave And Loyal Friends[/size][/b][/color] Going into this war, it was always clear that MHA would likely lose. Despite this, we have been honored and humbled by the loyalty of our friends to assist us despite the assured defeat. Those who came despite treaty conflicts and despite knowing the odds stacked against us show the strength of their character and exemplary friendship. Traits many thought long-dead in this realm. It is with great honor that we at [i]Don't Panic[/i] wish to give our thanks to the following alliances.

It is too early yet for us to be pinning awards on these brave hearted chests but rest assured, the MHA will remember your dedication and your tireless defense for years to come.

[center][img]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j172/billtemple/DontPanic/DPWar.gif[/img][/center] [center]The Mostly Harmless Newsletter Edition #46[/center] [b][size=200][color=#0000FF]Dear Planet Bob,[/color][/size][/b] The staff at Don't Panic have an intergalactically recognized and sportingly uncanny ability to be both everywhere and nowhere. Open bar? We're everywhere. War? See you at the bar instead. And it's not just because of persistent, untreated alcoholism prevalent in Hitchhiker journalism OR an endemic inability to hold a gun after consuming far too many Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters. No - as most people know the first casualty of war is the Truth and you're better off trying to hook up with the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal than being a reporter during a war. Besides, who would be stupid enough to choose gunshots over tequila shots? Not us. So when we heard last week (*cough*) there was WARRRR afoot, the DP staff made haste to our secure, hidden War Room to safely plan great battle strategies, disseminate secret intel, and wire propaganda to our loyal citizens out of harm's way. Instead we ended up doing this: [img]http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_MjmpP3OokpM/SNgJamCrAhI/AAAAAAAACPI/6jOz2aaPT70/s400/MELANIE-SCHIFF_large.jpg[/img] So I think the intern or someone else wrote this edition. Happy reading! [b][size=200][color=#0000FF]Mostly Harmless News[/color][/size][/b] Current Government line-up below.

Force of habit. Still, war is once again gripping the tightly coiled fingers of many nation rulers across Planet Bob - sparking many to gather together in harmony and cry out "Don't they know it's (almost) Christmas?!" Still, our preference for drinking in a bunker notwithstanding, we at Don't Panic welcome the onslaught of deftly unoriginal announcements, hastily resized flags, and over-use of the "rust" pun (sorry again, IRON) that Global War provides. Why? Because it only goes to show the importance of our publication. What better message is there to you, the fighters and the warriors, than the sage advice of "Don't Panic"? Perfectly simple but deeply comforting, it is in this time of bloodshed and terrible forum posting that our namesake ascends to its highest authority of [i]the[/i] message of unadulterated common sense. So relax and drink a PGGB; it doesn't really matter if your nation, your alliance, your bloc, or your two year old excuse for war is burning to the ground. Remember.... [center][b]Don't Panic. [/b][/center] [size=150][b][color=#8000FF]Winter? It's 40 Degrees Outside.[/color][/b][/size] [i]By WorkingClassRuler of Foamtopia, located in Southern Ocean.[/i] There has been a horrendously incorrect slogan banded about this Planet in recent months and it's time this prejudicial nature should come to an end. For far too long has the recklessly racist "Winter's coming" threat been deliberately segregating and alienating all the good people whose nations reside in the Southern Hemisphere of Planet Bob. So self-appointed are these Northerners that they dare schedule a Global War based on their assumption that everyone is facing the upcoming winter season and not a balmy and sunny summer. Whilst you throw around your puns about cold and ice many of us are enjoying the tanning glow of a summer heat, backyard BBQ's, and even going to the beach. The [i]BEACH[/i], I say. And we don't wish to be reminded of your wet and frost-sodden time of year. Unlike you, we can actually go outside (you know, without spending twenty minutes wrapping up in layers of wool clothing) and don't wish to spend our time here fighting a war just because it's too cold for you lot to go outdoors. As if the cause for Southerner Recognition wasn't already hampered by Global Time remaining a Northerner convenience. You try telling your kids to go to bed at Noon. NOON! Now we have to all try to pretend it's a chilly Winter's Day when it's 40 degrees (that's Celsius to you) outside? This madness has to end and I call on all Southerners to rise up and condemn this gross generalization of the entire Planet's current temperature. No more pretending it's cold when it's warm. No more going with the crowd and agreeing our toilets flush in the same direction. No more commenting on the blooming flowers of Spring when our trees are all brown and grey. No more! Northerners can't have it all their way, it's time for equal recognition of the Southern Hemisphere. [img]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j172/billtemple/temp/Vladitron1.gif[/img] [size=150][color=#8000FF][b]VLADITRON: An Interview With Greatness[/color][/b][/size] [i]By WorkingClassRuler[/i] It was with fear, awe and not just a little bit of paranoia with which I began my chat with The Ruler of Bob, VLADITRON, supreme leader of everyone and everything. Even nestled in the relative safety of the [i]Don't Panic[/i] bunker, I lived in fear that the cyborg incarnate was merely toying with me until his bombs of justice would find us and poor down like righteous rain. Still, it was with the foolish bravery of a dead man walking that I managed the following interview. [color=#0040FF][i]Don't Panic:[/i] In your [url=http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=106728]Happy Vodka Day[/url] announcement, you revealed you have returned to us in cyborg form. Was this a choice of practicality or because it made you a more superior killing machine?[/color] [color=#BF0000]VLADITRON:[/color] The full history of my reincarnation can be found in “The History of VODKA” on [url=http://cnvodka.com/forums/index.php?topic=10.0]CNVODKA.com[/url], though I shall provide a brief summary here. After I sacrificed my mortal flesh as King Vladimir VIII, dedicated scientists who feared for the fate of Bob managed to subsume my lingering essential life force into their newest cyborg prototype. Thus King Vladimir VIII returned as VLADITRON to resume his role as ruler of Bob. The increase in killing power has also been quite nice. [color=#0040FF][i]Don't Panic:[/i] Are there plans for a second Vodka Imperative? If so, what can we expect from your tyrannical rule?[/color] [color=#BF0000]VLADITRON:[/color] VODKA Imperatives are issued whenever The VODKA Empire must give specific and direct orders to the planet at large. As such, a second Imperative could be issued at any time, though there are no immediate plans for another Imperative. Most nations and alliance-states have dutifully adapted to their new lives under VODKA rule, and a great deal have already gone above and beyond by starting a Global War to honor the will of VODKA. [color=#0040FF][i]Don't Panic:[/i] You declared war on the NPO (as well as GPA and MHA) in November 2010 and directed the Doomhouse Bloc to attack them in January 2011. Was this grace period you allowed a sign of benevolence and/or temporary mercy? [/color] [color=#BF0000]VLADITRON:[/color] King Vladimir VIII fell in December of 2010, and with him fell the celebrated VODKA Empire. As all informed citizens of Bob are aware, the Doomhouse Bloc attacked the NPO in the name of King Vladimir VIII to show solidarity in the wake of their leader’s demise. They aimed to complete the goals of their fallen hero and thus attacked the NPO to finish the job that King Vlad had so nobly begun. It was this bloodshed, declared in his name, that strengthened the essential life force of Vlad and allowed him to be reconstructed into the cyborg VLADITRON. It should be noted that only a week after VODKA’s return, Global War has once again broken out on Bob. Inspired by the return of their savior, IRON and TOP have declared war on the NpO. Alliance-states continue to see the beauty of life under VODKA rule and have begun to join the war en masse. Thus VODKA has already proven remarkably successful in bringing warfare back to Planet Bob. [color=#0040FF][i]Don't Panic:[/i] As nations cannot be truly destroyed in Planet Bob, how do you plan to bring about the destruction of the MHA?[/color] [color=#BF0000]VLADITRON:[/color] Consider if you will the nations of Gramat and Joshinda Perfection. Gramat immediately seceded from the MHA only minutes after VODKA’s first blitz on the nation, and Joshinda Perfection chose to wipe itself from the face of Bob after receiving a PM that indicated it had been added to the VODKA PZI list. However, despite the statistical damages VODKA continues to deal to the MHA, our goals are more ambitious. VODKA aims not only to destroy the infrastructure and technology of MHA nations, but to destroy the very essence of the MHA and all that it stands for. Your bland incompetence has gone unchecked and unopposed for far too long, and the MHA has become a cancerous growth that threatens the very life of Bob. The planet is now under VODKA rule, and we will accept nothing less than excellence from our citizens. Inactivity and passivity will no longer be tolerated as we enter Bob’s Final Golden Age. VODKA will continue to trample the souls of the MHA membership until its very spirit has been utterly destroyed. [color=#0040FF][i]Don't Panic:[/i] Finally, is it possibly you simply haven't tried drinking a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster and would change your mind if you did?

[quote]you see it is an 8BR on black and i think if any of you can choose between a 7BR and an 8BR, you would probably choose the 8BR[/quote] I would go with 7BR that why I set one up for 7BR ha. I forgot what the difference was, But I thought I saw benefits in the 7BR that were not in the 8BR so I guess just personal preference. Well let us know if you hear back from the 8BR trade partners or not.

All right seems to be complete, I'll send out the PM's and see if every one is still on bored.
