Kevanovia

I will be unable to finish this newsletter. My sincerest apologies to everyone looking forward to it. (Due to lack of material to base summary of alliances on/my focus on Planet Bob is elsewhere)

This is a good looking alliance, if I do say so myself.

[quote name='Gibsonator21' timestamp='1298965541' post='2647842'] I just.. I just don't even... [/quote] There, there. In time the 1 mil NS will build back up.

[quote name='Argin' timestamp='1298963720' post='2647803'] Nations that have joined NpO since the beginning of the war: 102 Nations that have joined VE since the beginning of the war: 22 Nice try guys, next time try something with less facts and more spin, you know, some real garbage you can just feed the masses. [/quote] [i]Swish[/i] Argin shoots and scores. Nice one, good to see VE coming back with a legitimate response.

[quote name='Myworld' timestamp='1298954561' post='2647522'] o/ DT and LoSS and Legacy it's been fun. [/quote] I echo this statement.

Valhalla was forged in a fire of hate. noWedge was a nut, and Legion got screwed over because of him. They are still paying the price of his actions today. With that said, I am impressed at what Valhalla has become. I look forward to the day where I can call Valhalla a "great alliance". I believe that day is coming soon.

[quote name='Solaris' timestamp='1298800029' post='2646063'] I remember! Those were the days.. [/quote] Ha, "were".

[quote name='Scorponok' timestamp='1298806358' post='2646093'] Check out; [b]The Imperial Order[/b]. If you have what it takes to be an active member of our community, you'll definitely enjoy your time in Polarbearia. We are medium sized, just currently regrowing after the war, so you'll have plenty of tech buyers to give you 15million every ten days. We're very active on IRC and on our forums. With plenty of opportunities, to push yourself and make you a better nation/ruler. Come chat with us sometime: www.cn-tio.com #TIO (on coldfront.net) Catch you soon. [/quote] These people are good folk as well ^

I suggest Gotham.

[quote name='Emperor Marx' timestamp='1298774640' post='2645769'] Some actually have the potential to do something big in the world and then do so. This alliance does not. It was useless and terrible the first time around, I don't expect anything different this time. [/quote] Was it useless? I believe the purpose of it was to create a community with a unique theme, and it obviously served its' purpose if some of the same members want to resurrect it. They obviously felt at home with the alliance, otherwise they would not have wanted to recreate it. As far as it being terrible, our FA department and IA department was pretty damn impressive. If you look at our last thread, it was full of positive remarks and kind thoughts. Obviously people remembered University fondly.

I just pray that I'm not next. [color="#FF0000"]*Goes to the pharmacist for appropriate medication to prevent this horrible disease* [/color]

I look forward to seeing what they have to offer to Planet Bob, and I wish ODN and TFE good luck on cooperating on making this a legitimate alliance.

[quote name='blueski' timestamp='1298756640' post='2645591'] You're not one for history are ya. [/quote] Precisely what I was thinking.

[quote name='Xiphosis' timestamp='1298595504' post='2644285'] [b]Past GOD Members[/b]: President Smith [b]Past Allies[/b]: KasMage Zocane This list may seem short, considering it covers a four year time frame. We have been fortunate that the vast majority of our allies and members that have, over the years, had a real impact on us have stuck around for a mind boggling long amount of time. Today we honor them. Their contributions and friendship has not been forgotten. [/quote] *salutes Three of the finest names in Planet Bob's History.

The charter is modified? Looks the same to me. (Ninja-edit: except for the ghostbusting section.) Good group of folk, I'm exciting to see what you guys can do with this theme. As the founder of the original University, I hope to see this alliance thrive. University ended on a high note, as a respected community. I expect you guys to keep that respect. Good luck Real Edit*

[quote name='Gibsonator21' timestamp='1298186926' post='2639260'] I don't see why Os would want me if I was trash, but OK. [s] Anyways, when are you starting another alliance? After this war I presume?[/s] Edit: I'm not going to disrespect the ODN by posting anymore in response to you. Have fun ODN. [/quote] Sooner, actually. [s]When are you going to go to join TOP and attempt to become Sky's shadow?[/s] I'm not going to disrespect Sky by indirectly comparing her to Liz.

[quote name='Gibsonator21' timestamp='1298181876' post='2639183'] Wow, OsRavan, just for this moment I wish I did go to ODN a few months ago. I'd love to hit any of them. [/quote] Thank Bob you did not. ODN is a good alliance, there's no reason to add trash to it.

Good luck Gotham. May you be the shining light in the darkness.

The GOON operation will be put to a halt, you will not succeed brainwashing other nations by these "newsletters".

*Edited in the summary/reasoning for Dark Evolution I skipped FoB for now. I have made several attempts to find the history of FoB from the point of view of an original founder or someone who was part of it, however I have been unsuccessful thus far. I do not know much about their earlier days. So if you know a lot about their formation and their alliance, I would appreciate if you could spend some time to go over their history with me. Thanks!

[quote name='Yankees Empire' timestamp='1297887936' post='2635869'] As a longtime MoFA of FnKa, I don't believe there is any reason for FnKa to be on this list, especially in the top 15. We fought with TOOL in Karma. That's it. If you're using FnKa attacking GOONS as your rationale for FnKa's placement, then you don't know what you're talking about. [/quote] [quote name='ty345' timestamp='1297901689' post='2636116'] As another founding member, yeah, I have to agree with this. We really didn't do much of anything. [/quote] You guys don't think FnKa was a good/great alliance? Leave importance out of this. I repeat, you guys don't think FnKa was a good/great alliance?

By far my favorite alliance. ODN has only hit one rough spot in its history (Fracking WalkerNinja), other than that you guys have been pretty much spot-clean. Congrats guys.

The obvious question here is, "why?"

[quote name='Wu Tang Clan' timestamp='1297891923' post='2635930'] I don't know who's better off. Good luck to all parties? [/quote] I was thinking the same damn thing.

[quote name='Schattenmann' timestamp='1297868078' post='2635639'] Oh, you know what, Kev? You can only have like 10 quotes in a post, so you won't be able to put all the synopses in quotes like the first one. [/quote] Oh jeez. Good call, I'll change how they're to be edited in. Thanks Schatt. [quote name='AAAAAAAAAAGGGG' timestamp='1297873051' post='2635700'] Using your personal biases as a reason not to rank someone high is idiotic, sorry. I hated the original LUE, but I still see the amount of influence and effort they had, and would put them in the top 3. [/quote] I wasn't a huge LUE fan either, and yet they are #1. I also hated GOONS, yet they are high on the list. I have trouble seeing your point, I already addressed the NoR situation. [quote name='Willaim Kreiger' timestamp='1297875878' post='2635736'] Does anyone remember when someone made a poll of the most forgotten sanctioned alliances that had disbanded and forgot to put CDS on it? This thread reminds me of that. Good times. [/quote] CDS is in this. *points to #9* [quote name='Fallen Fool' timestamp='1297876647' post='2635746'] Horrible, horrible list.[/quote] Thank you. [quote] Here's eight alliances which shouldn't be on it: 1. Obsidian Entente(OE)/Oceanic Entente(OE)] OE survived for like two months and is best known for being used as an excuse to role VE.[/quote] Did you take the time to read why I put them at #25, because thus far they are the only ones I have written about [quote]2. Federation of Buccaneers(FoB) FoB's defining characteristic was that it was a small alliance in a politically relevant bloc. Other then that, all it did was exist.[/quote] Which is why they were important. They represented those types of alliances. They were a prime example on how you didn't have to be politically active in order to be politically relevant. I think you guys are missing that this isn't the TOP 25 most important alliances that have disbanded, it is the TOP 25 greatest alliances that have disbanded. Each of them has their own reason.
