CptGodzilla

you guys are made for each other

I guess I should post here Even though I am a master of words, nothing can describe the awesomeness of this treaty.

Note* This is an upgrade from our previous protectorate treaty. we are pretty awesome

Just 2 short announcements for you today. It is hard to announce, but 72 hours ago reasons were given in private and the MDP once held between us and Veritas Aequitas is officially canceled Also, currently our forums are down. Just figured I would give you a heads up, yo.

nazis vs. commies

There are nations larger than your alliances... should they now take on protectorates?

Don't forget that when someone called him on it, that whole 10-15 lines of defense was "sarcasm".

Hoo has no motive to debate 1 line in a set of logs he otherwise admits to ADI just recently had a falling out with RoK (a few days ago) and these logs have been floating around for a few days.

they were in the original, but not in the fakes that were passed around. edit: Also, Hoo admits to the rest of the logs, why would he care to lie about one of them?

It's a shame what people will stoop to.

I obviously rock out the superfriends underwear, and if Santa doesn't deliver he will be looking at a DoW when he gets back to the north pole

Don't get me wrong, I am all for war and junk, but I think the events that have happened thus far have been a great gift from the holiday gods Also, I feel the time leading up to a war and the time after a war are the best parts...

Just like dopple wasn't being serious for the CSN threat. Once things get tough, NSO seems to like the "oh you thought I was serious?" card

The only positive thing that came out of this situation was the quality images

ooc: Does NSO pay for and manage the servers that #NSO is hosted on? If that is not the case, it is actually not your proterty :ooc Anyway, Jack A for effort F for follow through. Terrible read. Dopple... stop waving around your twig thinking it's a stick. No one is impressed. (that can actually apply to all of NSO)

I thought it was

First off New Government Archein - CptGodzilla -Regent - Rudolph ---Minister of New Memebers - Tobias Greenich ---Minister of Internal Affairs - The Icemark -Chancellor - BronzeStar ---Minister of Finance - Vacant* -Prime Minister - Vacant* ---Minister of Foreign Affairs - Vacant** ---Minister of Military Affairs - Ivan el Rojo * Position is being covered by the Archein or position directly above ** Elections are being held, winning will be minister, 2nd place will be deputy Happy Birthday ....... 1 month late 2 years (and 1 month ago) Monos Archein was born. I wasn't particularly in MA at the time, so there isn't much I can say other than... help us celebrate our lateness in this announcement. Also, in honor of this acheivement, we have had sigs made so look out for them. Finally, a thank you I would like to thank everyone who has stuck with us these past couple years, but there are a few who stick out. I would like to give the Archein Service Award to the following people Rudolph - You've done amazing so far, lets keep it up Joe Fowler - haven't stopped working since you joined, we need more like you Mamaduck - You did us great, now get to that RL of yours KaitlinK - You did a great job so far, time for us to take over DirkNL - You may have left us, but the work you did with us is appreciated Gibson - Your tavern keeps us going Keres - re: DirkNL + You're awesome VanHooIII - For listening to my constant ramblings Allied_Threat - Re: Hoo + helping us internally Goose - Re: Hoo Ginotheroman - Someone told me you should be on this list with your constant advice and chats *raises shot* Here's to another year!

I am not sad to see this. Good luck R&R

I like this. MA here. 1. Offensive Nuclear Policy? Depends on the situation, but usually it's up to the archein (leader) 2. Defensive Nuclear Policy? You nuke or spy away our nukes, we go full force. 3. Does your alliance endorse tech raiding? Currently on hold, but we did/do have tech raiding policy in place 4. (Answer to #3) Why? I don't want to restrict my members in any way possible, also tech raiding will get new nations more involved in other aspects of the game 5. Why did your alliance choose your color? The founders all came from maroon alliances, and maroon alliances are some of the friendliest 6. Are NAPs useless? No, They provide warning if you about to get attacked, and it will cause bad PR to the other alliance if they break it 7. Do you believe in MADPs? (Meaning, why not just have MDoAPS just in case if you do not believe in the cause) I will only sign a MADP with someone I know and trust. MDoAP are perfectly fine for me 8. Do you believe in the use of sanctioning during war? Yes. 9. Can you provide me a link to your flag? http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/cybernat...5/53/MAFlag.jpg 11. What small alliances do you feel will be major political players in the long run? Coproration, Brain, or SoL 12. Do you consider TDO neutral? Their actions as of late? less neutral 14. Current recruitment? (Open-door? Applicant interviews? Invite-only?) Applicant review 15. Does your alliance believe in preemptive strikes? Depends on the situation, I won't rule anything out that would benefit my alliance in some way 16. Current view concerning NPO? hammered by reps and from the looks of it will be way behind in the tech race 17. Who are the alliances you are closest to who you do not have a treaty with? unsure 18. Do you believe/support in NPO's Revenge Doctrine? No 21. What are your alliance's strengths? Allies 22. What are your alliance's weaknesses? inexperienced players 23. What alliances do typically the majority of your alliance descend from? No alliances, most of our membership was recruited when they started 25. Alliance A declare war on Alliance B. You have MADPs with both. Morally, you agree with Alliance A and feel they have a good enough reason for attacking alliance B, how do you go about handling this situation? Don't enter, but make it clear that if anyone not involved and takes the opportunity to have a low blow at either will be taken out 26. Do you believe in Perma-ZI? I won't comment because I want to keep the option open if i ever need it. 27. An alliance called The Fookheads has a MADP with The Asgards. The Asgards decide to declare war on an alliance called Icantbelieveitsnotbutter alliance. Asgards reasoning for attacking is simply because they want dominant control over the silver senate, and they feel this is the only way possible. The Fookheads, whom have an MADP with The Asgards, feel the reasoning is both unethical and illogical, thus canceling their MADP. Are The Fookheads dishonorable for standing up for what they believe in and canceling the MADP? Of course. When you sign a high level treaty such as MADP, you have complete trust in your allies. If they pull something stupid like that, you are bound to help them. 30. Thoughts concerning... (all these are my personal views, not the views of MA) 30.1 ...Citadel? Some good, some bad. Overall neutral 30.2 ...Frostbite? Dont like any of them 30.3 ...Superfriends? Best group around 30.4 ...Complaints and Greviances? good group of guys 30.5 ...Common Defense Treaty? not a big fan of most, but some of them have potential 33. Do you ever censor your members? If they are acting retarded on the OWF 34. Are coups ever justifiable? Yes, there are certain times when a coup is the only time to overcome a problem 36. I respectively tell you I dislike your alliance, I feel your leaders are disrespectful who feed on power and power only. I also state I feel the general membership has no respect and constantly flame. What would your response/actions be? If it were in IRC? you would be banned from the channel. On the forums? I would probably dig up dirt on your alliance, but other than that you have every right to say that, just as I would. 38. State the results of any wars you have been in. As an alliance? WotC - W Karma War - W Personally? (for leadership experience sake) maroon war - W GW2 - L GW3 - L UJW - L WotC - W Karma War - W 44. Your members wish for a new government, they don't like it and feel a different kind would be better. What do you do? Have a charter amendment thread and then have a vote on it within the govt. from the members input. 45. What traits make a good alliance? Intelligence, courage, a bit of recklessness, and willpower 46. Current Government type? Dictatorship 48. Did you support GGA's doctrine concerning the Green team, stating an alliance needs permission from the to form on GGA and no alliances other than GPA can vote for senate? If a senator from any other team has more than 20+ votes, they will be attacked. No, color teams aren't there for one alliance to control, but there for alliances to get closer on a common ground. 49. Do you believe in moral police? No, it is the worst thing to happen to CN 50. What treaties do you have? member of the superfriends member of chestnut accords MDoAP - Valhalla MADP - TTK MDP - AZN MDP - VA 55. Do you feel you will ever be sanctioned? Nope 56. How many members must be in an alliance before you consider them an actual alliance? 1? 5? 10? 20? 30+? 5 60. Age range most of your members are? RL age? probably early to late 20s 61. Where do most of your members live? USA, bro. 62. What crisis's have your alliance overcome? Failed coup attempt by the alliance of AB 63. (#62) Did you become weaker or stronger because of them? stronger 64. What were some of the most important steps your alliance have made in its history? Joining superfriends was probably the biggest step. 66. What are your alliance's plans internally for the future? To grow stronger internally, it both structure and comradeship 67. What are your alliance's plans externally for the future? Currently unsure 68. GPA wants a MDP, do you accept? Nope, I don't know anyone in GPA 69. The Hydra Clan enter a war you do not agree with, you have a MADP with them. You are seriously against it and it is against your morals, though, if you do not comply, you can be seen as traitors. What do you do? Fight the war, I signed the damn treaty. 70. What is honor? How is an alliance honorable, what makes an alliance honorable, and what makes an alliance dishonorable in your opinion? honorable? standing up for your allies and friends, even in the face of extinction dishonorable? ditching your "allies" to stay safe 71. A GOONS member flames you, and you respond back, publicly, with harsh words as well. Who is wrong? No one is wrong, words is words. 73. What is more beneficial in the long run, diplomacy or war experience? Diplomacy 75. Which alliances would you sign an MDP with if you had free choice? VE or Sparta 76. What makes a effective fighting alliance? Tech and lots of it 77. In a war against a much bigger opponent against who you could not win, would you use the alliance nukes to go down fighting (to take as many of them down with us as possible - FAN style) or disband the alliance? Tell the nations who want peace to secure it now, and take everyone else and go down fighting. 78. Might makes right. True or false? False 79. About the Unjust War: which side do you think was in the right, if either, and are you happy with the result? UJP was right. I was in the channels when JB was parading around ignoring GOONS govt. acting like a complete tool. The war could have been stopped, but GGA and NpO wanted it too bad. 81. Does the majority of your alliance sell tech or buy tech? For what price? even, 3 mill 100 tech is what usually happens. Some of the members will do 3 mill / 50 tech if they also want the person to grow 82. Does the majority of your alliance buy donations or sell tech? For what price? tech 83. What was the cause of the Unjust War? (note: not the actual casus belli but the wider interrelation) BotS and Genmay. The bigger picture was GOONS potential dominence needed to be snuffed out before they posed a more serious threat than they did. 84. Do you have any ideas about where the next major tension or war might be? between 1 of the 4 current power blocs (FB, Cit, SF, CnG) don't know which though. 85. What do you think the effect of an alliance sanction is? Is it a good thing or a bad thing for most alliances? Probably good thing for most, because it is obviously something they work on. 90. Would your alliance ever spy on an alliance if you felt threatened? (Not in-game spying) nah 91. The Fookheads have a NAP with TheMenHuggers. You have a MADP with The Fookheads, who break their NAP and attack TheMenHuggers. What do you do? Attack with fookheads, but reprimand them in private 93. You send a member 15 Million Aid. 2 weeks later, the member leaves. Do you make the member pay 15 Million back? Or more? 15 mill, part of our internal rules. 94. Is there such thing as respectful freedom of speech over the CN forums? In some cases, people can be respectful but also get the point across, but that mostly happens behind the scenes. 95. Should an entire alliance pay the price for one member's actions? (Non-government) Depends on the actions, but most likely no 96. Should an entire alliance pay the price for one member's actions? (Government) Depends on the actions, but most likely yes. 97. Quality or Quantity? The middle ground 98. The Fookheads, who you have a MADP with, are forced to cancel all treaties to avoid war with the ILovePooNuggets Alliance. The ILovePooNuggets alliance finds a questionable cassus belli, do you help your ally even though they were forced to cancel the treaty? Depends on how close I was to Fookheads and what the CB was. But even if I didn't, I would feel bad. 99. Will alliances like NADC/WTF ever do anything? Are they isolationists? NADC does stuff, they are just bad at it. WTF isn't isolationist, they have treaties and junk, they just avoid the clutter of OWF 100. Your member sends aid to Mangina, who is on NPO's ZI list. (Not really, theoretical situation), who they never announced. There was no way for your alliance to know Mangina was on the list. NPO then attacks your member's nation. How do you handle this situation? What if it leads to a potential war, what will you do? Get my member off the list by paying whatever reps, and use the opportunity to possibly gain Mangina freedom as well in hopes that he will join my alliance. It wouldn't go to war, I would make sure of it.

A small portion of spies are seen and those are the dumb ones* Also, I've always wanted to lead an alliance for more than a month

NpO for letting King Penchuk back in

good luck Ejay, I like what you have going on here

Or, you know, you could let Athens and KoN do their business and keep your nose out of it?
