good luck Hydra, I wish you well in your future endeavors.

Went...sorry to see you go bud, take care and see ya around

Aye, Olympus and Kronos had a very interesting relationship that I would have liked to see formalized more as well. o/ Kronos o/ Olympus

The very interesting journey of Olympus began over 2 years ago, a step of devotion on beliefs, and hope that we have made the right decision has been echoed by our membership on more that one occasion. I have to say its been a very interesting, faithful, and hard journey but one we would not trade for anything in the world. Even after two years, I have to say some people stand out in my mind and deserve some special mentioning...forgive me if I don't get all of you... First our steadfast friends...Valhalla...We have been beside each other since the beginning. I look forward to the continued journey my brothers and sisters. SNAFU..how can we not mention you guys..Friends before official ties ever existed we have been great at keeping each other honest over the last couple years. The rest of purple...Our first year that is really all we focused on was building stronger bonds, and relations with all of purple. Some unknown relations...GK..Mia and a few others at TOOL..You guys rocked in the days leading up to our rollout and without some of those discussions, Olympus would have failed before we even start. Thank you so much for being great friends. Most of all my Olympian family. Thank you so much for allowing this dream to become reality. Without all of you Olympus would not be the respected alliance it is. I can not begin to express my gratitude to all of you. To my fellow Titans...friends...QH, MG, M3G, Pansy, Grendel and SO..Thank you all for going ABOVE and beyond. Thank you and i look forward to seeing the continued growth, commitment and devotion to our family!!!

Looking for long term tech trade partners that are active and reliable. Those whom send 50 tech first will get priority. Those whom wish to be considered please pm me with your nations information and how quickly you have a slot available.

I am looking for 2 long term sellers of tech, outline of the deal is as follows: Buyer A sends 3m to Seller 1, Buyer B Sends 3m to Seller 2 Seller 1 Sends 50 Tech to Buyer B Seller 2 Sends 50 Tech to Buyer A I already have a second buyer. Deal will repeat every 10 days until our sellers are too big to sell anymore. Profit from this deal depending on your resources could be over 2 mill. Private message me if interested as I will not be monitoring this post.

Congrats to our purple friends on this treaty, its nice to see this step being taken. o/ Hydra o/ SLCB o/ Purple

In all my time on Bob, there have been very few alliances that have been on the "other" side of the battlefield that acted with dignity and honor. Being Olympus's first "test" as an alliance, it was an honor to fight along side Valhalla and have you as an amazing opponent. I remember Olympus actually helping a few of your nations get trades sorted to join the fight with us. I remember the spying of QH's warchest and the cursing about it in channels we shared. Kronos was a class act and one of the alliances that if the cards were right I for one would have liked to have more formal relations with. Disbanding an alliance is always difficult, especially one that has done so well in the past. Kronos will forever live on in the hallow halls of Olympus as a class act alliance that we have had the honor and privilege to know. If there is anything we can do for members past and present please don't hesitate to find our leadership. While we didn't have formal relations, Kronos has our respect. So with sadness in our heart, we lower our flags to half staff, and offer assistance to some really cool folks that we have had the honor of knowing. o/ Kronos

Hey there K, very sad, yet excited to see friends feel the need to set out on their own. Please whatever you do stay in touch with us over at Olympus, I wish you luck on your journey. I will plagiarize a bit and copy Grendels recruitment post is it really does sum Olympus up very well. edit: double quotes here is bad mkay?

Today is a very proud day for me. Just under two years ago, Olympus was founded based on some very basic principles. Friendship, loyalty and honor. We wanted Olympus to be a small stable group, one that we can truly call family. One that one day we could hand over to our membership and proudly say "this is YOUR alliance." Today is the first time in our history that one of our founding members does not hold an actual government position. We have grown to the point of good members, leaders and family that the reins have been turned over to our membership. It is a very important day in our history indeed. Our Titan Council as Queenhailee stated is more of the moral compass for the alliance. We are still watching and very much involved still, but the Potentate council is what keeps us running. I want to congratulate all our new potentates and our returning ones. I know our alliance is going to be well cared for in your capable hands. To our allies and friends, we open our embassies up to you and have fully stocked them for this momentous occasion come on down and party with us. Our normal shoutouts to our staunchest allies and those we consider our family on purple. Thank you for accepting us with open arms, and watching us flourish into the alliance we are. We have had a heck of a journey so far and its been a honor to stand with you side by side through the best and worst of times. I look forward to our continued relations. To my family, I couldn't be prouder. From our unwavering support for our family, to some really amazing people, Olympus is a very awesome group of leaders with some amazing vision and knowledge. I look forward to our very bright future as the Founding Titans smile proudly from Mt. Olympus!!! o/ Olympus o/ Family

/me blames SO AND Grendel

about 700 days ago, myself and a small group of friends sat in a room with GK and some of his counterparts in TOOL. We had discussions on what was really important here, and what our vision was that eventually became Olympus. With no strings attached, GK offered support in many ways, as did Mia. I can say that very rarely have I met a leader quite like those in TOOL. Olympus may not have official ties to TOOL, but without the support when Olympus was a pipe dream, Olympus wouldn't have existed. We owe much to you GK...and never really said it in a public way. To see your time as leader of TOOL come to an end, is indeed a sad day. To have someone that has been so instrumental in the leadership and growth of an alliance, last for so long and slowly retire, is a sign of the times. Know that TOOL will always have a place in our hearts here at Olympus, and the chilled chocolate will always be available for you in your embassy with us. To my friend Mia. I wish you luck hun, and know that we are never far away if you need us. Congratulations and good luck on your promotion I know you will do great!!

Definitely not a mistake and I'm very glad to see something long in the works finally come to pixels. SNAFU, you are a great loyal bunch and an amazing ally. o/ SNAFU o/ Olympus o/ Valhalla o/ BAPS

Olympus has in fact grown into a very respected and honored alliance. On Bob to be respected by allies is good. To be respected by opponents in wars...that is another story. Olympus is unlike any other alliance you will find out there, come and check us out.

congrats on the elections Valhalla nice to see you all rocking it still! o/ Valhalla o/ Purple!

Please allow me to clarify a few things... First Pansy is still able to be very much involved in the workings of Olympus as he has been a Titan since prior to his last term. So while stepping back from the lights, he is still very much involved in the workings of Olympus. Second, yes I need a flea dip. Third, Hizzy....all the more reason to get to know us...ask Valhalla Forth...I got nothing.... Fifth....cookies and as a parting thought...Pansy is in your closet looking for a new shee..girlfriend....

[quote name='Gn0xious Jr' timestamp='1282065916' post='2419878'] finally, something we haven't seen! gotta love me some fake DoW filled with .gov updates! [/quote] got you to read it....and post even...thanks for playing... You see this is all a clever plan to see if we can get everyone in peacemode for our real DoW's coming out at update...kinda slight of hand and all....you know..for the lulz, everyone likes lulz.

Anyone that really knows our relationship with Valhalla would know the world had to end for this to really happen

[center][img]http://muirheadconsulting.com/images/olympus/warflaglarge.gif[/img][/center] I have the proud honor of announcing our DoW against Valhalla....oh wait wrong folder.... [center][img]http://www.muirheadconsulting.com/images/olympus/olympusnovus.gif[/img][/center] Our new government is as follows: [center]Regent: Buffalo Niagara Potentate of Foreign Affairs: Queenhailee Potentate of Internal Affairs: Durin Potentate of Defense: RunningGunK62 Potentate of the Treasury: President SO[/center] We have established the following deputies to act on our behalf as well: [center]Deputy of FA: Blazer Deputy of IA: Morrisons Deputy of Defense: 50Willie[/center] Additionally I would like to point out that The Pansy has retired from our government (your welcome Valhalla), and Olympus is over 600 days old. We would not have made it this far without our good friends on purple and across Bob. Thank you all for your support!! /me runs and hides cause qh is gonna whoop me for this title

I would have to say Olympus coming to the defense of Valhalla in the last conflict rates at the very top. We actually put it out to our membership asking them about their commitment level and EVERY single one of our members upheld our founding principles and voted to stay in till all our family was safe no matter what the cost. Overwhelming support for our allies based on the friendships built with our membership really showed during this dark time and we would have rode to hell and back to make sure each of our friends got out safely before we did. Seeing Olympus become the respected alliance that it is however is my favorite thing. A small 50 person alliance respected by friends and enemies alike, is something I am really very proud of, and is a testament to each of our members standing behind the founding principles of the alliance is something that still floors me at times.

[quote name='queenhailee' timestamp='1282016677' post='2418617'] No hate. But a lot of sadness from being asked to choose between groups of friends, then being forced into a decision by one of the groups as they pushed me away. Through that I lost friends and a home. And that was really tough. But the sadness and the stress and even ugliness is what led me to the best times and best friends I've ever had in this game. So no hate. Just a really big pile of gratitude. [/quote] This is the best way to say it.

Happy birthday from your mess of a purple friend...

/me wanders into this thread, and just chuckles....some things never change... ((also haf just so you know, Olympus has 52 members and 10 WRC's, so having 11 at 80+ members really isn't anything to brag about....))
