  1. Squire Greenansatsu walks onto the stage holding the envelope in his hand Contestants! Results are in from both the crowd outside the keep and the special secret judge. Before I tell you the results I want to explain a little about the numbers and the voting. First I took the numbers from the OWF thread and compiled them up. I also took a person who simply said they liked one team over another I gave that team 5 points. These numbers counted for slightly over a half of your possible score. I then asked a friend of mine, who directs shows to look at your scripts and your advertisements. I had her give you a score out of 10 for both the quality of the script and another 10 points for the quality of the advertisements. I reminded her this was for fun, so originality and humor were a big factor. I then took her scores and multiplied them by 4.5 since we 9 people post scores for a total of a possible 90 points each of my friends scores were worth a quarter of the score. So finally the scores. First off the OWF vote TOP scored a 79 RK scored a 86 Next up was voting on the scripts TOP scored a 36 RK scored a 45 Finally the advertisements TOP scored a 40.5 RK scored a 31.5 And with that we can tally the final score TOP ended up with a score of 155.5 RK ended up with a score of 162.5 So with a mere 7 points the RK wins the round.
  2. And now for the RK entry Cast of Characters Alice- Francesca Chosen for her wonderful head in the clouds fashion. The perfect person to venture into Wonderland Mad Hatter- Bilrow Rude and belligerent, scared and nervous Mad Hatter or Bilrow you decide March Hare- Moldavi Caught in the Time Warp of the past White Rabbit- Mpol Always in a hurry.Confident enough about himself to contradict the King of Hearts Doormouse- Astronaut Jones Always falling asleep which AJ awakens? Cheshire Cat- Bob Janova The guide who speaks in riddles but imparts knowledge Queen of Hearts- Big Bad Off with their heads , can their be a better description of our former TPF enforcer. King of Hearts- Jack Diorno Incompetent leader. HMMMM The Mock Turtle- Sal Paradise Always depressing and talks about the past. Oh wait the character too. The Caterpillar- TheNeverender The King of mushrooms surely the connection is clear. The Duchess- Haflinger Rude and moralistic at the same time. Playing on the screen The Un-war party. Good Alice still reeling from the odd behaviour of all around her came upon a large table set up as for a Council of War. Half strewn papers and plenty of recyclable metal cans of water were found most awkwardly perched upon its great expanse. “Come and sit a while as we our minds alight, discuss the great planning of this as yet to come Un-war”, greeted the Mad Hatter. “Yes, yes we must not waste a moment”, agreed the White Rabbit. “Great things we have done and great plans yet to come have we”, opinioned the March Hare. “I shall then sit a while then as I am most tired” said Alice. “Not there”, said the Mad Hatter “there is no room.” Alice observed the many other empty chairs beside the one she had ill chosen. “There is no one sitting here how can there be no room” queried Alice. “Have some scones”, the March Hare said in an encouraging tone. 'There aren't any,' said the March Hare. 'Then it wasn't very civil of you to offer it,' said Alice angrily. 'It wasn't very civil of you to join our Un-war without being treatied,' said The March Hare. 'I didn't know it was YOUR Un-war planning table,' said Alice; 'it's laid for a great many more than four.' 'Your hair wants cutting,' said the Hatter. He had been looking at Alice for some time with great curiosity. 'You should learn not to make personal remarks,' Alice said with some severity; 'it's very rude.' “Pardon me”, chirped the Doormouse, seemingly emerging from a long slumber, “Have we un-declared on anybody yet”? “Un-declared indeed” harrumphed the large grinning cat in the tree. “This is an Un-war after all”. “What is an Un-war good cat” replied Alice with some interest? “Why every relation is an Un-war unless you are at war of course”, grinned the feline. “That is most strange” murmured Alice. “Strange you foolish girl, off with their heads I say.” Chortled the Queen of Hearts. “We shall make an un-alliance to un-fight this Un-war”, majestically pronounced the King of Hearts. “What do you think of that”, questioned The Caterpillar who had joined the Cat on the tree limb? “Well it does seem to follow logically but would one not wish to have the biggest un-alliance before engaging in an Un-war”, asked Alice’s now even further confused. “ Of course you must consume a Mushroom Kingdom to grow your un-alliance, that is the only way” explained the Caterpillar. “It is all so sad”, cried the Mock Turtle “you are all doing it wrong. Let me tell you of the old days and how we were better and happier back then.” “Yes let us remember the days that were as if they were not as they were but as we would have had them be in future” sighed The March Hare. “We must hurry this along there is so little time and much to un-do” chastised the White Rabbit “You should all hush up and listen to how I do it”, clattered the Duchess. “The Queen and I know what is right and we have much wisdom to impart”. “Really Duchess and how do we un-fight an Un-war”, inquired the Cat? “Silly Cheshire Cat, you know that the moral way is always the proper way” she exclaimed while unceremoniously dumping the poor Doormouse out of his seat. “Why are you called the Cheshire Cat”, Alice queried? “Why Girl it is because I am not from Lancaster of course”, the Cheshire Cat purred. The March Hare and the White Rabbit exchanged knowing looks at this. Rising imperiously the King of Hearts cleared his throat and spoke “ Certainly when one is not from a place then naming one of a place would certainly be misplaced”. “ But for the old days of my youth how I miss the simple certainty of our rightness”, lamented the Mock Turtle. “ If I were still leader, or when I am leader , or as I am leader…”, spoke the March Hare “ Do as I do not and say not as I say and you too will be true to what was untrue’, interrupted the Mad Hatter. “ Back to our Un-war planning”, chided the White Rabbit “ I am uncertain about my certainty of un-planning our un-declaring of this Un-war I believe “ groggily the Doormouse responded. “ We must continue to un-plan our Un-war lest diplomacy eliminate our chances of declaring our moral un-victory over the enemy ”,interrupted the Duchess rising as she once again knocked the poor Doormouse out of his seat. “ I must find my way back out of the rabbit hole” Alice declared as she rose to follow the white rabbit away. “ Good luck and do not spill the popcorn as you enjoy your Un-war day” offered The Cheshire Cat “Off with their heads”, agreed the Queen of Hearts as Alice disappeared into the distance.

  3. First up TOP's Entry Snow White: Cybernations Edition. The remake of this famous cartoon embodies the remake of the Karma war. As many of us remember, the war was mainly NPO and its followers vs anti-NPO. We did not mean to under-represent the NPO side, but since the dwarfs were all on Snow White's side, we helped Casting: Quote: Snow White: (OV) Rayvon - Head OVer, represents the 'victim' Prince: (VE) Impero - 'saves' Snow White. VE comes in defense of OV with the conflict with NPO. Queen/Witch lady: (NPO) TrotskysRevenge - Ebil overlord. Mirror: Bob Sanders - Valhalla was one of the "tools" of NPO during the war that was bossed around. Guard: mhawk - He was the leader of TPF at the time of the war. TPF was one of the alliances that chickened out and canceled the treaty with NPO, even though TPF later defended Pacifica. The Guard in Snow White was supposed to kill Snow White, but did not have the courage. (all dwarves fought NPO/Witch) Doc: (FOK) MrCyber - Smartypants Grumpy: (Athens) Jack Diorno - He's a grumpy who trolls us :'( Happy: (MK) Drai - He's happy. Sleepy: (Sparta) Sethly - Sparta was the last alliance to DoW on NPO, so in a way "sleepy" Bashful: (GOD) Xiphosis - At times makes odd comments. Sneezy: (Vanguard) Rafael Nadal - Seems to always do something that wasn't needed at the time when least expected. Dopey: (RoK) Gen Lee - He rogued TOP Playing on the screen Queen: Magic mirror on the wall, who’s the strongest one of all? Mirror: Famed is thy strength, majesty, but hold, a lovely maid I see. Rags cannot hide her sturdy grace. Alas, she is more strong than thee. Queen: Since when do you tell the truth? Of all the times you choose to now???? Alas for her! Reveal her name. Mirror: Lips red as the rose. Hair black as ebony. Skin white as snow.[reword?] Queen: SNOW WHITE! She is going to pay for this… How dare she infringe on MY throne? Queen slaps her fists against the table and break a nail. Queen: OH! Snow White shall pay for this! She flips her hair and walks out of the room in a cat walk. Snow White is sitting on the window sill and waves to the departing dwarfs. Grumpy’s voice from the distance: Now don’t do anything stupid while we’re gone. You hear me?! Snow White: [chuckling a bit] Why I would never Queen shows up from out of the woods as an old peddler woman. Queen: All alone, met pet? Snow White: Yes. But I shouldn’t talk to strangers. Queen pretends to have a small heart attack. Snow White helps her and gives her a glass of water. Queen: Thank you, my pet. Let me repay you with an apple. That’s the only thing I have left. Snow White: Oh, it looks delicious. Queen: Go on. Have a bite. It’s a magical apple, too. It makes your dreams come true. Just take one bite and make a wish. Singing of the dwarfs are heard in the distance. Grumpy: Something doesn’t feel right. I bet that stupid girl is up to something. Sleepy: Maybe the Queen got her. Grumpy: [under his breathe] if she’s so stupid, then maybe she deserves it. Doc: The Queen! All Dwarfs: [in unison] Snow White! The all run towards the house, shouting. Queen: There must be something your little heart desires. Snow White: I wish that the evil tyrant Queen would go to hell. Queen: [almost wanting to strangle her] Well, deary. Only nice wishes can come true. Snow White: I wish…I wish there was peace on this Planet Bob. Snow White bites into the apple and starts gasping and cackling. A thunderclap is heard. Queen: Her breath will still. Her Blood congeal. NOW I WILL BE THE STRONEST IN THE LAND. [Evil laugh] The Prince, standing in the shade of the trees observes the Queen’s evil laugh. The dwarfs run back to the house incognito. They hide behind the bushes and look at the scene before them. Sneezy's nose starts itching and not being able to hold it in, he sneezes loudly. The Queen hears it and looks in his direction. Her eyes grow wide as she sees the dwarfs. All of a sudden Snow White springs up from her almost dead state and screams: Snow White: ATTACK HER!!!!!!! The Queen tries to run, but the dwarfs throw a net at her and capture her. Doc: You think you can escape after attacking Snow White? Queen: B…b…but why didn’t she die? Snow White: I am not that dumb. I didn’t swallow the apple. Queen: Wicked girl! Prince: You knew this was coming. Prince picks Snow White up and sits her on the horse. Prince: Come on. Let’s go into the castle and let this evil Queen be our servant. She will repay for her evil with her service to us. The posters on the stage
  4. Squire Greenansatsu climbs up the stairs of the newly erected stage built outside the Rosular Kingdom's Keep. He walks to the center of the stage where there is a long rod that is sticking out of the stage with a cone on the top of it. He stands in front of the cone that is level with his mouth and looks at it skeptically. He looks around and instantly a shrouded figure appears next to him. He looks at the shrouded figure and asks Are you sure this thing works? Oh yes I guess it does very well then. Squire Greenansatsu looks slightly embarrassed and takes a step back so his voice won't amplify quite as much then pulls out a scroll from his belt and begins to readdress the audience Greetings one and all, as many of you know a few weeks ago The Order of the Paradox and the Rosular Kingdom cemented their friendship and signed a treaty with each other. What few of you will know is that in celebration of this event we have been holding a series of contest in the keep. The competition originally posted five players from each alliance and faced them off head to head for glory, prizes and mainly bragging rights. After three rounds TOP is up 2-1 over the RK. The last round just ended a few minutes ago and it is because of this that I stand here before you today. In my attempts to keep the judging as fair as possible I have been using secret judges to keep bribing and favoritism out of it. However this last round posses a problem for me in that the judge needs to be familiar with the workings of politics in CN as well as not having any direct connection with either team. Therefore I have come to you the players of CN and asking you to vote for this latest round. First off I will explain to you the rules of this contest so that you may better understand the voting. So there you have it ladies and gentleman, our contestants had one week to make their movie and I have the results right here. What I ask of you is to vote for each submission using a number 1-10. One being the worst piece of defecation you have ever seen and 10 being that you wish they would actually create this movie and you'd see it every day for a year. I will accept all votes submitted until this time tomorrow evening. So without further ado the submissions! Squire Greenansatsu then snaps his fingers and the shrouded man reappears on stage. He immediately sets up what looks to be a movie projector and a screen as well as nailing up some posters around the stage and handing out some to the members in the crowd. The screen then starts to flicker and the screen fills with the remade scenes from both teams movies. All entries were made in humor and jest and the intent to have fun. All entries are original and made by the participants for each team under the supervision of the moderator. Any complaints grievances or errors should be brought to my attention and not to individual participants.
  5. Personally I think DEFCON could randomly go up as well. If your at DEFCON 3 then there is an equal chance that you can be changed to DEFCON 1 as DEFCON 5. adds a little more randomness into the equation, and besides there are occasions you might want your opponent to be at DEFCON 1.
  6. slightly it seems, to be honest for my nation after crunching the numbers of what i know, I seem to be in the same situation i was in before buying 4 BW is my max. except the jumps between BW is more 3 mil each instead of a 1mil as before. So for me nothing has changed except i am 10k smaller, making 1.4m a day less, and am really afraid to touch my soldiers because calculation 80% is no longer the real 80% since as you buy soldiers your cit decreases.
  7. my tax per income went up around $16.00 for 5 bw and i only lost 5000 citizens so BW are more helpful to me now cause the cit drop is less than before.
  8. Actually if he hasn't looked at his nation recently it could be true. When this update first came out this was the case and was also why many nations were bill locked. I'm guessing many have not rechecked their nations after admin corrected the error in the formula
  9. I think that the game could do with 3 more improvements that touch on a part of the game that until now has been ignored. If not adding new improvements lets change some other ones to help change this. Also if you will look at my original idea I said a mix of BOTH. I am not against adding a Wonder. I think adding a 50m wonder that will increase environment +2.5 is a great idea. but I also think that adding an improvement costing 100k that increases environment .5 with a limit of 2 or 3, is not a bad idea either. Maybe making the Wonder affect GR environment as well. while the improvement doesn't. and even at 3000 infra you are still thinking to high. I am talking improvement for nations with 1000 or 2000 infra they can still buy improvements and small ones like this will help them.
  10. The reason you are at -12 improvements is because of the huge citizen loss due to bad environment. Plus we have to look at ALL the players not just a me, me, me game. By putting in a few improvements it will help younger nations be able to get a few more improvements faster. BW at the moment are sorta at a stand still, when i buy them my population barely moves where before it would go down by 20k. As your environment goes up your citizens go up and the border walls negate the increase population. A pure environment improvement will help increase smaller nations Citizens and happiness, and will make environment something to look at younger also. A wonder would only help those who can afford them and the bigger nations which according to DACsquiigle is a bad thing. If your going to make it easy on the big help the small out as well. Planning is important
  11. Perhaps a mix of both? A improvement with a low environment bonus say +.5 with a limit of 3, for smaller and medium nations with no negative change. Then a wonder as you suggest with a higher environment bonus for the bigger nations.
  12. But in all actuality haven't you just replaced Capitalism with Monarchy, and moved Border walls from being one of the last improvements to one of the earlier ones? There is a question I do have, someone else questioned buying soldiers. If I buy more soldiers my environment goes down as does my population. meaning that I could potentially overbuy soldiers, and with the major influx environment seems to be having on citizen levels this could have a huge change. Another question though i doubt you'll answer but are all the changes regarding environment negative? I mean I believe I have the best environment I can have at the moment 2.09. 1 environment + the 1.09 GR yet I still lost 10k citizens? I have no more control over my environment at this point, why still the harsh effect. In my opinion while I think GR should hurt environment I think its effect should be separated from normal environment because of this change. A single nation cannot control GR, and it seems unfair to punish the whole for the acts a few rogues. I still say let GR effect world happiness but separate it from the new environment formula.
  13. Still not crazy about the -10k citizens but with the happiness fixed its not too bad. I can live with this now, though i still think that adding a few strictly environment improvements would be a smart idea.
  14. Exactly, what happens when their is a nuclear war? GR is low now but if two big alliance start a war and start throwing nukes, and that number goes up to 3, 4, 5... EVERY nation in CN is going to feel it, and if nations were put into bill lock today whats going to happen then when everyone is in bill lock? it'll be something like this. 20 days later, Admin will be doing the same thing here as he did in CC, shutting down the server and moving on the Trukz, where his heart lies anyway.
  15. And its not the fact that you've gone out of your way. Its the fact that you go lucky. No one had any idea this was coming, if they did I am sure they would have bought lots and lots and lots of land like you have. I had to buy 5 BW just to get my income back where it was, and had to make a few other changes, my environment is now at 2.09. I have no clue what i can do to get rid of that last 1 environment and the GR will keep the other 1.09 their. However even with such a good environment I still lost 10k citizens. It makes no sense what do I have to do to get back to where it was? At this moment there is nothing I can do but buy land, except thats not really an option because most players are in bill lock they can't buy anything
  16. The reason you weren't affected -2 nukes your tech to infra ratio is insanely high your land to infra ratio is insanely high. your natural environment is high 4.19 i'm guessing you don't have BW. If i buy 5 BW i get my happiness back to where it was and i still have lost 10,000 citizens. There are nations who because they lost 20k citizens can't buy new improvements, or if they do they'd have to get rid of 25+ to get 5 BW. The idea of this suggestion was good the actual use of it was horrible. The formula is messed up. Nations have been put instantly into bill lock. they are losing a 1m+ daily with this, at max they can get 18 aid if they have 6 open slots. that'll help them for a while but unless they can get perfect environment they are screwed. PLUS the one thing that no one has mentions what happens in the case of a big nuclear war when GR gets back up to the sixes? Every nation in the game could be potentially put into bill lock at once, and there would be nothing they could do about it.
  17. No there is not, had a few members of OBR have there 2nd anniversary and there was no bonus.
  18. Why not have it, that if a soldier at some point of the day, day being defined as the 24 hours between updates has enough soldiers to launch a successful ground attack then that nation can use air, cm, and nukes during that same day and the next day. If a nation has gone 2 days without buying troops and mustering an attempt to gain the number of soldiers to attempt a ground attack then the ability to use nukes is taken away. if 4 days goes by they lose the chance at CM's and at 6 days they lose the chance of air attacks. This allows nations who were nuked and lost all their soldiers the chance to counter attack and defend themselves while it stops those purposely trying to turtle. While I do see the benefits of turtling short term, long term i just see it as a way of cheating the system. The war system while flawed was based off ground attacks and I think it should remain the staple of war.
