  1. To: All Cybernations From: The pun-named popcorn leader Re: My return. Hello world. I'm back until I'm not back again. Someone I have to pay all these bills I accumulated sometime during the past five years of my vacation, (has anyone wondered who is actually billing us? Do we live in a simulation?) and don't know where to find my NpO brethren. Looking forward to being lost for a while. Can anyone catch me up on what I missed during my 5 year vacay? -Orville
  2. I heard NADC was going to bring GUARD back after this war to help rebuild.
  3. I second. Vote 1 Grub. First thou select 1 Grub. Then thou must vote 1. 1 shall be the number of the voting and the number of the voting shall be 1. 4 shalt thou not vote, neither shalt thou vote 2, excepting that thou then recedeth to 1. 5 is right out. Once the number 1, being the number of the voting, be reached, then lobbest thou the Grub in the direction of thine foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."
  4. I know a dead parrot when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now. Helloooo, Polly! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vuW6tQ0218
  5. I think it's the avatar. Everything you say comes out like it is being squealed by some angsty teenage bully. Not saying that is what you are, but the avatar makes it sound that way. That said, I would love 6am update. My day starts at 6. What bothers me is trying to stay up to 1am. Because I'm old. Polar was on the loosing side of the previous war (not counting SNX), didn't deter us, either, it seems.
  6. And here I was, thinking I would be all bored and stuff. o/ NG.
  7. I remember Echelon always being decent folks. Sad to see them up and disappear. This is true, and it's a symptom of the problem.
  8. I take exception to this. I also cherish contract law. Query, if you kill off his trades and make it difficult for him economically, how do you ever hope to receive your tech, or for him to have enough to provide it to you? There is the law, and then there is being rational and practical. That said, good luck getting your debt! Also, did you first make sure this wasn't a consumer debt? If it was I am pretty sure your initial collection letters failed to comply with the international Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and you may be liable for up to $1000 plus attorneys fees. :-P
  9. You can check odds reasonably by looking at their nation page to see how many troops they have, tanks they have, and their tech, no? Just saying, not my issue. maybe communicate that to the membership going forward.
  10. I think you missed my point. I simply never liked Margrave's postings or persona. Nothing official, just personal.
  11. I am only a member with literally no say in alliance affairs--I'm not that active other than doing my duty. For myself, I wouldn't contact you because I simply wouldn't care to reassure you.
  12. What upsets me the most is that my war declaration has a grammatical error that is now impossible to fix, and it sits there mocking me every time I look. For that, I apologize, to my people, my parents, my teachers, and my opponent. I do not apologize for anything else.
  13. I agree with hartfw and Qazzian. Pretty sure that when leadership of an alliance has a track record of willy-nilly switching AAs but still having membership, rights, and responsibilities to the old AA, the AA is a distinction without a difference. This is very similar to a legal concept in Lawyeria called Piercing the Corporate [or AA] Veil: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piercing_the_corporate_veil If it's good enough for Lawyeria law, it's good enough for international law.
  14. I have the monopoly on Popcorn. Simply put, I couldn't have competition in the popcorn arena.
  15. This guy (or girl) really likes parentheses (a lot, and even when commas would suffice). Glad to see this (war) over.
  16. Do you ever get tired of making stuff up? In regard to the soured SNX relations, you said: You went on to say: Your mouth must be tired, with you speaking from both sides of it so often...
  17. And I know there is no video or visual part of the Report, but I keep seeing this in my head:
  18. Very timely topic. I had some more ideas for you: 1. SNX and Polar part ways; 2. NAAC disbands; 3. Emperor Charles was removed from power in a coup... All joking aside, I don't see what the issue is. If Polar can vote in 3 separate senators (to NATO's 1 and CCC's 1), and the combined forces of various alliances can't mount a political campaign for one of the 3 we took, I'm not sure what the problem is. Surely other alliances have enough membership to get one person elected to senate, no?
  19. I can't tell if this was an attempt at trolling, or if you were being sarcastic, or if you are new to the game, or if you were making jokes, because some of the descriptions were okay, others you go from sarcastic humor to truth, and many are way off. This one is just...wrong. Powerful alliance? Absolutely. Never uses that power and doesn't have a sphere of influence? Are you kidding me? Years ago it was NPO, world police. They were the dominant hegemonic power and they used it all the time. Looks like they are getting back into shape again, too.
