Most just aren't interested in spreadsheet games anymore and the few that are have been playing for awhile now anyways. So it's sorta just left to this community to mend if anything is to be done about breathing life into the game again.

I really don't know how the web works in the grand scheme of whose tied to whom but looking at it from a pure nations standpoint I wanna say Doombird Doomcave (and by extension Doomsquad) could and should pull it off... chances are nobody will have the balls (let alone ability) to stop them. And what happens then? Well a bunch of pissed of players and nations finally have a spark lit under their asses to either band together and survive, or fall to the pressure and die. And really I think I have a unique perspective on these sorts of things because I'm not entrenched in the CN community and come from a very different world of gaming that is a bit more cut throat to say the least. But in that same token, that world is much more enjoyable and dynamic. I just wanna bring a bit of dynamism to a game that from my 3 weeks of observation seems dreadfully dull.

"The Empire will never surrender, you dogs! I am Alexandros come again. I am the striking hammer of justice. Enemies of my people, know my name and woe. " ""Stop quoting law. We carry swords." - Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus " -quotes from your nation info & bio. http://www.cybernations.net/nation_drill_display.asp?Nation_ID=461516 Shut up you self righteous delusional nerd, your victories mean absolutely nothing and jerking yourself off in front of everyone about some paltry skirmishes (ps. the entire "war" was a pointless skirmish and hardly deserves the moniker of "war") only proves the point that your pretentious bio & nation info reinforce that you think way too highly of yourself. Though I guess you & LN are perfect allies for each other in that context. tl;dr: et tu kay why ess

Poaching should be done regularly and without regard for other alliances. Why? Because those other alliances are your competition and their well being shouldn't mean a goddamn thing to you. If that alliance wants to fight, then let them. It'll allow for a form of natural selection in which the stronger alliance (whether it be through the strength of their nations or their treaties) will prevail and in the wake of it prove to the defeated members that perhaps, they'd benefit from a stronger community. It would at the very least, promote the strong and lead to a far more polarizing and entertaining world. Frankly, any moralistic arguments against it are done from a position of weakness because these individuals likely fear the NPO's & IRON's of the world deciding to take an interest in their memberships. And so be it, it's only in their interest to argue against it and so I can't blame them. But the idea of an inherit right towards sovereignty is asinine... your sovereignty is earned through your power (see previous definition) not through any contrived notion of "rights" in an online game solely driven by the interactions of each other.

Thanks for the thirst quenching update General.

I think anyone who picks me up out of the undrafted pool would be wise... I'm a hidden gem for sure.

Well if the games driving force are it's politics and those politics are stagnating due to a lack of of sufficient motivation on the part of players to drive them then wouldn't that be a good reason to introduce (or in this case reintroduce) a motivation for it. To me it would seem like a life and death struggle would introduce much more motivation then the prospect of taking a turn on the throne of the world... plus what good is reigning if you reign in a time of limp-wristed wannabes... the challenge lies in ruling a world of cut-throats and hardened players breed in an age of challenge. (Like the one this previous golden generation seemed to be created in.) I mean every game needs a spark and perhaps that is the spark needed to reintroduce a bit more zest to the otherwise dull buildup to whatever happens next. I mean reading through the wiki some of the early wars seem really !@#$@#$ cool whereas some of the more recent ones seem pretty listless and boring in comparison and I also couldn't help but notice the frequency for these conflicts seems to have slowed even more. Operating with a lack of real danger isn't a recipe for a vibrant and driven community and what is cybernations besides it's community?

So in the early days of the game it happened and a "golden age" happens with a "golden generation" of players created in that maelstrom of tears and hatred and once it stopped years later that golden generation passed on from the game and the politics of it began to die... that sounds like a fair bit of causation if I'm looking at it. Someone should reintroduce a little bit of perma death into it I think!

GOONS are injected with ebola sometime during the third trimester and so I'm not sure you'd want to bleed them. Quite the nasty thing but it does wonders for motivating the unmotivated as the Pilots hold the patents on the boosters needed to cure it in the GOONland and use it to drive the wee fighting GOONie boys on the ground. "Kill a pubbie, Earn the cure." posters line the halls where I'm stationed.

Why isn't it okay to disband other groups? Maybe the reason there aren't more legitimate rivalries in this game is because at the end of the day your alliance will keep on ticking regardless of the outcome of whatever wars are happening and so there's never any danger of "loosing" much beyond a number value. Maybe introducing the idea of perma death for groups will create a new breed of politics which demands adaptation, strategy, and more importantly promotes the rivalries needed to drive the game. It seems to work in Eve so why not here?

I'm sure peace could be arranged with GOONS... I don't speak for them in any capacity given I'm only a trainee. But my intuition is pretty good for these sort of things and without revealing GOON trade secrets- erm, you don't happen to have any dog food laying around do you?

Oh cool we're saving someone.
