  1. If the game is so boring, then why do I spend *more* time playing it than I ever have in the past? The people who are bored are not trying hard enough.

    The fact is, we could be headed into another Unjust War type of situation of ideology split. The Unjust War was a disappointment for two major reasons: Most people hated GOONS and wanted to do anything to be on the side against them, and many of their allies didn't want to be associated with certain people who decided that a ~ alliance leader's personal life was worth bringing into the game.

    However, at this time, we still have the "power bloc" but it is by no means unified and in fact there are some serious divisions on the fringes of it and even between halves of it. Like in the Unjust War, nobody really wanted to be anti-NPO, which largely contributed to the fact that it was the first major war that did not directly revolve around NPO. Once these rivalries start to surface more into the open rather than "private channels", I fully expect the huge power bloc to start unwinding based on where alliance loyalties truly lie. And for that reason, I don't think the game is dead but in fact I think we may see the largest war in CN history this year. Do you want to miss that, or are you doing your best to be prepared?

  2. What good is being a senator if you have no one to trade with?

    It's a myth that large teams have better trades. Large teams only have competition stealing the trades you're looking for, where big nations buy good trades for themselves while everyone else pretty much has to pray they get lucky. Organisation of trade rings is the only way resources get distributed fairly, and if you can do that, small teams can be much more of a benefit. I almost want to start a yellow or pink team alliance just to prove it can be done, if it wasn't for the fact that I'd miss being in Pacifica too much.
