Mushroom Kingdom / Pandora's Box

[Alterego]

MK wear the pants without even being in the bloc. Its like that blue bloc NPO was part of, they shouldnt have been a member of that bloc but ran it anyway. MK arent part of PB but run it anyway. The way alliances fell over themselves to bring them into the bloc by default despite rubbing the nose of VE in it is a prime example of MK being put before the bloc or its members.

[Fyfe XIV]

Voted UPN... oh shi-

[Matthew Conrad]

Considering how we operate the invisible hegemony with such craft I think we all know the answer to this one.

[potato]

MK is, arguably, one of the most (if not the most) influential alliances on Bob. So yes, somehow, we have influence on how Pandora operates. In the same way we do with pretty much every single alliance out there, whether it is Umbrella, GOONS, PC, NPO, UPN, CoJ, ODN or WFF...

How the public perceives it shouldn't be on any important to those that matter. In this case, Pandora operatives.

[Yevgeni Luchenkov]

The NPO, via SirPaul, the Pretender to the Toadstool Throne.

This. Also, not this. Also, the VEto was real. Also, the VEto was fake.


Also, hello. While I know you all love to speculate, the truth of the matter is that PB is a group of dynamic personalities, none of them being subversive to another despite the fact that some of us may possibly be seen by the peanut gallery as having more of an outward persona then others, and each alliance has its own unique strengths and areas of expertise that other members may fall short in. We all help each other, fill in gaps, and pick up any slack around because that's what such a bloc arrangement is for, after all. There is absolutely no internal status quo, every single member is an equal and a peer.

Finally, I'm sorry to disappoint, but despite our great working relationship with MK (yes, all of us), they have no more influence over the bloc as a whole then any other outside treaty partner. Period.

There's no NSO option.

[Somedude]

Everyone knows that GWB subverted all the alliances in PB and is now in direct control of the strongest bloc in the game.
Or maybe we're the only ones who know that....

[Bob Janova]

MK holds the puppet strings, but we hold the VEto!

(Also stupid poll is stupid.)

Is that a counterpoint

[shahenshah]

Umbrella, you can argue back and forth about all the alliances in the poll, and you'll find that Umbrella is perhaps the only alliance that gets respect from every corner of bob.

[CEverettKoop]

Voted iFOK, but only because Alpha Omega, Nutty North Koreans, and GPA weren't part of it.

[Tequila Mockingbird]

doomhouse is to pb as 1v was to tC

[Sir Keshav IV]

None at all. It's the Orders that have the most influence over PB [img]http://forums.cybernations.net/public/style_emoticons/default/awesome.gif[/img]

I second this fact

[MutedFaith]

MK owns us.

[Trouble Terrible]

missing option fernando12

[Mr Comrade]

MK is not in PB so this poll is nothing but garbage.

[Kahnite]

Any alliance but those listed. Just look at how PB sidestepped this latest international incident.

[Thorgrum]

Voted for those proclaiming fernando is stupid or is a waste of time, truly they are the intellectual giants of the planet and hold all the influence. Why else would they reply to someone they thought was irrelevant and stupid?

Poll is stupid to you guys in PB only because you want to shrug off the embarrassment that not one of it's members is actually worth a damn and an outsider is who will be telling you all when and where you can take a dump.

Humiliation about how your bloc is perceived is what you should all feel. You all built this bloc to become a power player but the power still lies with the same alliance. Get rid of ties to MK and let's see what PB can actually do, otherwise you all are a bunch of lapdogs.

[Monster]

I'm considering the proposal.
