Combat Pope Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 (edited) [size="7"][u][center][b]A "The Golden Horde" Annoncement [/b][/center][/u][/size] [center][img]http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/cybernations/images/4/47/The_Golden_Horde_Flag.png[/img][/center] When The Golden Horde was created we wished to have something different, we wished for a challenge, this is why we chose the yellow sphere to call our home. Over the last 6-7 months the Government of the Golden horde, including myself, have faced many challenges because of the way life is on the yellow sphere, our main problem has been finding and then completing trade circles for our new recruits. Recruiting in its self has become a major difficulty with many of our targets knowing that the yellow sphere is a hard place to exist. There were many other contributing factors which have ultimately lead us to decide that the time has come for us to move on, so in traditional Mongol form we will now be claiming the orange sphere for our own. In order to come to a decision in regards to which sphere to chose I got the chance to interview many interesting people to get their opinions about their sphere and give them a chance to really sell it... and orange just so happened to do it better than anyone ells. I would like to thank all of the following people to their contribution to my sphereority report, which I was bidden to complete by Partisan under pain of execution, and worse, the eating of my favourite goat Billy D: . Watchman Freddie Mercury Sippyjuice Myworld EdenFields King_CJC Ramirus Maximus Labubu Tumultuous Papaya DVDCCHN Friffon Joracy Tromp Kryievla Cyborg Belial HeHe Joe32320 Metic Mia Skippy DeScepter Impero Thank you all for taking the time out to answer my questions and help bring us to this decision. Happily our beautiful protectors in the Rubber Ducky Division have assured me that our decision to migrate from yellow to Orange has in no way affected our relationship, and the Horde of Golden Duckies is as strong as ever. I invite any and all Orange members to join us in our IRC channel #TGH on coldfront to help us with this transition into your sphere. EDIT: I Would also like to take this opportunity to welcome Lucas Perry to The Golden Horde, He will be taking over the Position of Vizier of Economics, so Welcome... ------------------------ Combat Pope Vizier of Diplomacy The Golden Horde Edited March 7, 2010 by Combat Pope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work with other friendly alliances and with some initiative, you can get trades pretty easily. I know, I've done it before. In addition, members new to the game have no idea of what spheres are "less populated" than other spheres making that argument really have no legitimacy (less you're trying to recruit nation 40,000+ exclusively.) The rest of the announcement is fine. Relatively glad to see you off of our sphere anyhow if you're hiding behind those arguments. o/ Yellow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banksy Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 You thanked Joracy? Wow- okay Grats on the move to orange- the truly unified sphere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Perry Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 It is true that every sphere contains failed TCs. However, on yellow, there are a lot fewer options to replace lost trades and thus making keeping the same circle harder. The decision came about because Orange, being one of larger spheres, contains more possibilities to fix failed trade circles. I know that people on Pink and Yellow are going to come here and say, "I've been able to keep a circle for x amount of time". Well, that's good. But for newer members it's easier to have them move because of all the options and availability. Now, please don't go trolling this thread. Have some of our newly found cake stash.

Thank the Lord for that. In addition, you [b]should[/b] feel glad. It's always a good thing to get recognized in a negative light.

One of the biggest things about finding trades on any sphere (regardless of population) is working with the other alliances in your sphere and improving cooperation amongst you so that your members can benefit with an improved list of trade candidates. Seeing as you said you've never done any work in that regard, it's not a huge leap of faith to assume that your trouble finding trades were a result of your own doing (or lack of doing to be correct.) I do respect that you have left my sphere, believe me, I do. I wasn't hating either, simply pointing out some inconsistencies in your statement which attempted to rundown the team we've made a home for ourselves in and have flourished as a result. [quote] It is true that every sphere contains failed TCs. However, on yellow, there are a lot fewer options to replace lost trades and thus making keeping the same circle harder.

While yes, initial set up may take a little bit of effort, it's well worth it in the end. The benefits of elbow grease and motivation should never be forgotten. [quote]Now, please don't go trolling this thread. Have some of our newly found cake stash.[/quote] No trolling, simply pointing out inconsistencies as I stated earlier. You know I like you, Lucas Perry and I know you're capable of doing good things wherever you are. I'd just rather see you somewhere else where your efforts might be recognized.
