Mark Reynolds Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 With the approach of Halloween, we have noticed that many national rulers have chosen to participate in the ancient seasonal custom of dressing up in costumes. Some of our members want to participate in the Halloween celebrations, but they wanted to do things a little bit differently. As some of you know, we have recently been fighting a couple of nuclear rogues who took objection to us because of our neutrality and what team we choose to call home, thus regrettably forcing us to educate them in the difference between neutrality and pacificism. We have therefore decided that it would be fitting for those of us who want to participate in the Halloween party to don the robes of a different team for a few days. We have chosen the white and black teams for this event in recognition of the tradition of Halloween marking the transition between the light and dark times of the year. While ghosts are a popular element in Halloween, those of us who choose to participate in the costume party will not be ghosting anybody and will retain the 'Grey Council' alliance affiliation. Because this move is only temporary, our members have been asked not to vote in the senate elections in order to avoid being forced to remain on another team for longer than is planned.

Hime Themis Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Good Grey Council Enjoy the switch, good to see you on Black. Hope you told your trade partners so they do not lose that team bonus. Respectfully Dame Hime Themis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModusOperandi Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 [snip]Hope you told your trade partners so they do not lose that team bonus.[/snip] I loll'ed! On a serious and somewhat aside note though, have those GC folks felt that the no trade bonus has had a minimal or big impact on their growth and development over the last few years?

Crimius Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 It's been minimal for me. I'm a fairly recent member at about 3.5 months, and my income didn't change enough to matter significantly. I still get all the same bonus resources and the price cuts and such that go with them, which is the biggest factor on my income and thus my growth.

White Chocolate Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) Cool idea. Planning on dressing up for other holidays too? Orange might go well with Thanksgiving. Edited October 31, 2009 by White Chocolate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
