Lord Brendan Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 AZTEC-7. Made of nice enough alliances, seem to stick to themselves and understand the purpose of a bloc. Bastion-8. Not really a serious bloc, but made of alliances I like. Below-8. Same as above. Blood For Friends-2. Two non-overlapping MADP blocs entirely contained within a MDoAP bloc. About as stupid as it gets. Citadel-7. Impressive stats and good at what they do. Seem to understand the purpose of a bloc. Chestnut Accords-8. Successful team unity treaty. Does exactly what it was intended to do. Common Defense Treaty-3. They didn't even fight together in the Karma War. Doesn't seem to understand the purpose of a bloc. Complaints & Grievances Union-9. THE MOWST YUNIFIED BLOC ON THE WURLD Duckroll-1. Total flop. Fantastic Four-Who? Frostbite-6. Polar has big stats, NSO's got a big mouth. STA is pretty cool. LEO-7. I like INT, and I've always liked the dutch. Nexus-7. Other than Silence, not sure who's in this. OPP-8. Love it or hate it, the pioneer of protectorate blocs. Powerpuff Girls-Who? Pegasus-Purple. Poseidon-Purple. Power Rangers-Do they still exist? Teen Titans-7. Alliances I like, but too quiet. Terra-Cotta Pact-4. As a unity treaty, a total failure. Hasn't really done much at all. Peace and Love Accords-Who? The Stickmen-7. Small alliances that cause drama as if they were 10x their size. Hilarious MS Paint drawings. The SuperFriends-9. Bias. Valor Accords -Who?

Facade Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 I'll save a lot of text by saying... 1 for any MDP or higher level blocs which has outside treaties. 10 for any ODP or lower bloc. 10 for any MDP or higher level bloc which has absolutely no outside treaties.

Ivan Moldavi Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 Terra-Cotta Pact-4. As a unity treaty, a total failure. Hasn't really done much at all. Considering that it is a mutual defense pact and not a "unity treaty" (whatever that is) I am glad to consider it a failure in that regard.

Iosif Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 The Stickmen- 5 (Contrary to what may be expected considering both my current and past AA, I don't hate them. Iosif is cool too) Bringin' glory and respect to the Stickmen Accords since 9th of April 2009, 26 past nine post meridiem, Greenwich time.

Derantol Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 For what it's worth, Duckroll isn't actually an MDP/MADP bloc at all. It's a military coordination treaty, but nothing in Duckroll says that anyone has to go to war for anyone else. So if this is a list of MDP/MADP blocs, it doesn't really fit.

Lord Panda Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 Nexus- This is the brown bloc right? CD and Silence are awesome people. but not a NSO fan so you kids get a 5 You know NSO is not in Nexus, right? NSO is in TCP. Nexus has friendly/Nuetral relations with NSO. Nexus includes Silence, CoIN, TheFed, and the 57th Overlanders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a team MDP bloc with the goals of "[upholding] the integrity and dignity of the Brown trading sphere" and "[pursuing] prosperity for its citizens via trade, support and mutual defense". AKA a team unity treaty. While it is true that some unity treaties have not been MDPs (such as the now all but dead OUT), the majority are (BLEU, Chestnut, PWN, Poseidon, etc).

Skippy Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 I seriously can't understand why our reverse psychology isn't working, I've always thought not doing anything for months is the best way of getting some attention.I mean, honestly, couple of very random OWF jabs at folks and one week of drama we didn't even start and we're attention whores now? Come on. Well I will say you have gone a little quiet since the last attempt I actually wanted you to go to war with Poseidon, make something happen, but you pulled out (I know why, don't need to explain) but you could of made it interesting anyway. Too much hype for nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsure Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 AZTEC- 4 ehhh Bastion- This still exists? Below- No seriously, these still exist? Blood For Friends- 1 Redundant bloc of alliances I do not like. Citadel- 7 because Grombrellans own Chestnut Accords- 4 Totally not a SF satellite. Totally not. Common Defense Treaty- 1 New rule: when a bloc has at least three times as many ex-members as members it is not a good bloc. Also, don't like any of the constituent alliances. Complaints & Grievances Union- ~Biased voting~ Duckroll- 1 just for the name. Fantastic Four- 1 for not having 4 members. Frostbite- 6 Good, good, awful. LEO- 5 One good member, one meh member, one member I still cannot name a single member of. Nexus- 2 Who? OPP- 2 Protectorate bloc. Powerpuff Girls- 2 only because they aren't as bad as CDT Pegasus- 0 Poseidon- -1 Power Rangers- 2 I cannot name a single member of any constituent alliance. This is a Bad Sign. Teen Titans- 4 Reasonably not-awful Terra-Cotta Pact- 2 Cannot name any members other than NSO and that one alliance I can't spell Peace and Love Accords- 2 Not a fan of anyone involved, with bonus protectorate bloc duct taped on. The Stickmen- 4 Distinctly meh. The SuperFriends- 6 Some cool people, some people I dislike, eh. Valor Accords - 2 Who? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wickedj Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 my dear friends at Silence have corrected me on my knowledge of blocs. Nexus now gets a 7(would be an 8 but -1 for goon) and Terra Cotta is the 5 )): goon )): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xiphosis Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 AZTEC- NR Bastion- 10 (Fond memories of the day it got announced, lawl) Below- 10 Blood For Friends- NR Citadel- NR (Haven't seen half enough of FCC/Argent/Gre in the past months to call this at all fairly) Chestnut Accords- 10 (Only regret is how long it took) Common Defense Treaty- 2 (Some alright and sensible people, but a vast core of the leadership needs to grow up) Complaints & Grievances Union- 9 (Near enough a 10 but their outside ties are soulcrushing) Duckroll- 0 Fantastic Four- NR Frostbite- 0 LEO- NR Nexus- NR OPP- 0 (Not for the people in it, but the atrocious idea behind it) Powerpuff Girls- NR Pegasus- NR Poseidon- NR Power Rangers- 5 Teen Titans- 10 Terra-Cotta Pact- NR Peace and Love Accords- NR The Stickmen- 7 (Would be higher but they don't roll like I roll, even if we tend to see eye to eye) The SuperFriends- 10 Valor Accords - NR NR is, like Feanor, for no interaction or no real opinion.

Zessa Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 AZTEC- 7. I would like to see AZTEC survive. Bastion- I have heard of this bloc but have no idea who's in it. Below- 5 for existing, +2 for VE, -2 for Xiphosis' post. Blood For Friends- I think this is... GGA, TMF, and Jack Diorno's one-man alliance. Not rating. Citadel- 6.5. I gave too many sixes, and I like FCC. Chestnut Accords- Stop giving away the password. 7. Common Defense Treaty- Who's in it now? 6 based on who was last time I checked. Complaints & Grievances Union- 8. You lose a point for each alliance I regularly forget is in the bloc. Duckroll- 5. Not much to say here. Fantastic Four- You get a four. Also, crazy guess time: Sparta (4th place), NoR (the fourth alliance I was in), OFLC (Guess. Really.), and FAR, which sounds like four. Frostbite- 10. Figure out why on your own. LEO- 7. I like you guys, but you're tied all over the place. You're at the center of the web in some ways. Nexus- I'm guessing this is TFD, Argent, and Monos Archein. If so, 6. OPP- lolwut? The peace terms didn't end this? Powerpuff Girls- For the love of god, there are too many superheroes on here. I'm going to guess FAN, Genesis, and RIA, which would get an 8 from me. Pegasus- 6. See Poseidon. Poseidon- 6. I forgot who's in Poseidon. They changed it since I stopped paying attention. Power Rangers- Who? Teen Titans- Who? Terra-Cotta Pact- I'm guessing this is GOONS, TYR, and Bushido. And I'm not even going to rate it. Peace and Love Accords- I'm going to guess... GPA, TDO, and WTF made a bloc, and give you a 5 based on that. 7 if IAA is also a member. The Stickmen- 6. Best announcements ever, include moonspeakers and wannabe Dutch and SLCBs, but I have no idea what you do. The SuperFriends- 0 (you lose 6 points because of Xiphosis' post) Valor Accords - I'm going to assume this is MASH, TOH, and Vanguard. Why? No idea. 7.5 if I'm right.

William Blake Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Citadel- 7 Common Defense Treaty- 5 Complaints & Grievances Union- 1 Frostbite- 9 (nobody's perfect) The Stickmen- 0 The SuperFriends- 1 Haven't heard of the other blocs.

Too much hype for nothing. In other words: we're seeking attention for not wanting to go to war for essentially nothing just to entertain the bloodlusty OWF crowd and instead decided to actually shake hands with our 'foes' and go mind our own business. Yeah makes sense to me too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintenderek Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Terra Cotta has the best flag. Even better then Frostbite's? Also, I refuse to take part in these ratings, just because I'm not even sure if some of these blocs are still around or not. I thought Duckroll was canceled.

TehChron Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 It's a team MDP bloc with the goals of "[upholding] the integrity and dignity of the Brown trading sphere" and "[pursuing] prosperity for its citizens via trade, support and mutual defense". AKA a team unity treaty. While it is true that some unity treaties have not been MDPs (such as the now all but dead OUT), the majority are (BLEU, Chestnut, PWN, Poseidon, etc). So the fact that it's an MDP bloc with language encouraging economic coordination makes it a "team unity" treaty by default? Thanks for the lesson.

Bob Janova Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Re Terra-Cott: The Brown trading sphere is ready to once again begin its move back towards prominence and relevance in the Cyberverse. Today we introduce the Terra-Cotta Pact, a mutual defense and trade agreement, open to all peaceful alliances of the Brown trading sphere that seek honor and prosperity for their nations.... I would like to extend an invitation to our comrade alliances on Brown to take up the banner of mutual defense and mutual prosperity and sign with us to the Pact. ... Even alliances that are currently struggling in other trading spheres are welcome to move to Brown and take up this banner with us to see a brighter tomorrow. The Terra-Cotta Pact: A Mutual Defense and Trade Agreement for the Brown SphereWe, the signatory alliances of the Terra-Cotta Pact, vow to uphold the integrity and dignity of the Brown trading sphere ... Mutual Defense of the Brown Trading Sphere ... Each signatory alliance is encouraged to work with one another to further trade and economic growth and prosperity for every nation in the Brown trading sphere ... Any alliance residing in the Brown trading sphere or claiming predominant placement within same that agrees to the intent of the Preamble and contained mandates is welcome to sign this Pact and receive equal and full benefits to all other signatory alliances, provided no signatory alliance objects. How you can claim that isn't intended to be a Brown unity treaty I have no idea. The subtitle of the treaty itself explicitly states that it's a treaty for the Brown Sphere, you went on about the history of Brown in the announcement and invited any and all Brown alliances to sign it. Brendan, there are several non-MDP unity treaties: OUT, ICE, NOIR and UJA come to mind, which cover three of the four largest colours.

Does ICE still exist? Anyways fair enough, MDP and sub-MDP unity treaties are both common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
