DogeWilliam Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 (edited) Soooo....I recently started playing CN again. I've been gone for about 2 years I would say. Much has changed. Much hasn't. I felt like catching up on some history and found this page on the Cybernations wiki. http://cybernations.wikia.com/wiki/History_of_Cyber_Nations Needless to say, this history stops at about the time I stopped playing. Someone needs to grow some cajones and write what has happened since August 2007 so I know wtf is going on.

John Michaels Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 I had started up a thread trying to accomplish this some time ago, but it died out due to lack of interest. I'll have to bump it when I don't feel like utter !@#$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogeWilliam Posted May 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 To be honest, I wouldn't mind someone writing a quickie asap. Professionalism is great, but this is a free internet game. I'm sure someone on these boards could write a basic history since 2007 in 10 minutes....maybe 30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theArrowheadian Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 I'm gonna argue that this is one of those things that we would all like, but aren't motivated enough to do ourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehChron Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 I did this thing for about a year. Believe me, it doesn't !@#$@#$ work that way. ^^ This Sorry, buddy, but you'll have to do your research the hard way. Like I did. Ive been back two weeks, and already gotten a pretty strong working knowledge of everything that happened in my absence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Brendan Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 (edited) Well that history ends just before the Unjust War. So basically: September 07: Unjust War - GOONS, \m/, TPF, MK, etc vs NpO and like a whole bunch of other people. ~ (NpO's coalition) basically demolished the Unjust Path. \m/ and GOONS were annihilated. End of the Initiative's reign, followed by a brief period of uncertainty before One Vision and Continuum are formed. December 07: Continuum is formed, consisting of NPO, IRON, MCXA, TOP, Gremlins, Old Guard, NATO, TPF, Sparta, Valhalla, FOK and MHA. They were the largest bloc in history and Continuum + direct MDP allies equaled around 60% of the game's total strength. January - August 08: Continuum and BLEU (NpO's bloc) spend this time wiping out various alliances for a variety of reasons. GPA, NADC, GATO, FAN, CIS, GUN, IAA, off the top of my head. June-July 08: Sponge becomes Emperor of NpO again, a short time later declares on FIST, the MADP partner of his MADP partner VE. Everyone ended up pissed over that + various other stuff and it culminated with the NPO-NpO MADP being canceled. August 08: A massive coalition called Coalition forms and takes out NpO, MK + allies. August 08-April 09: Vox Populi spends this whole time fighting a forum war with NPO. Gradually NPO retreats as public opinion turns against them. April 09-Present: NPO attacks OV and the world goes crazy. OV's allies and their allies and their allies stomp all over NPO and what remains of Continuum. And that's the relatively unbiased summary of my time on Cybernations, which coincides roughly with the time you've been gone.

Helped me get a better grip on some basic things. You should post that on the wiki. Man, they both missed the best part; there was this great alliance formed in February called Playboy Mansion Socialites. It was run by the owner of a prestigious, grungy strip club in NYC, he played for fun and PMS stayed pretty neutral but got into small wars about every 4 weeks. Before he got fed up over the conflicts and left, he had his dancers create nations and a few of them gave some free cam shows in exchange for financial aid. A couple of CN players were even invited to his club for a VIP evening. Those were the days man.

It is basic and leaves rooms for more details. You can also put in, "Need more details." so people don't have to write something from scratch.
