New Frontier Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 [center] [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9197543/thelostgondor.png[/img] [size="7"][color="#000080"][font="Verdana"]There's A New Alliance In Town, Cats and Kittens! And It's Pretty Neat![/font][/color][/size] As some of you may know, Gondor and the Lost World have both existed on the Blue Team for quite some time. Over a year, in fact! And they've had an MDoAP for as long as anyone can remember. As a matter of fact, Lost World totally went out on a limb and signed that treaty with Gondor before Gondor even existed. Crazy! That treaty has been at the forefront of our minds as we steered our two separate alliances through the murky waters of Bob the last year+. Where Lost World rocked, Gondor totally rolled alongside! And [b]vice versa.[/b] In this most recent shenanigan, Gondor and Lost World stood resolute beside one another against Athens (and some other guys were totally on the other side too!). If my memory suffices, we were such a dominant fighting force that Athens&Co were forced to surrender to us, and most of the alliances on the other side disbanded too! When the subject of a merge was brought up, it really kind of seemed like a no-brainer. CN has too many alliances, and if we can do our part to fight the overpopulation of Bob by marrying our best friends in some sort of Gay Marriage Bonanza, we figured we should go for it! Unlike other merger alliances of recent memory, we aren't going to pretend to be a super cool rookie alliance that should win rookie-of-the-year and is totally awesome. Not that we aren't totally awesome of course, but we're actually pretty proud of where we came from. Gondor and Lost World were actually pretty OK! Anyway, we're merging. [quote=Totally Rad Deinos Charter] [size="7"][color="#000080"][font="Verdana"]DEINOS[/font][/color][/size] Thunder roars overhead as a terrifying green colossus tears across the landscape, teeth the length of grown men glistening as lightning flashes all around. Letting out a terrible roar, the monster brings a gigantic foot down upon a lone log cabin, crushing it into pieces and brutally murdering all that live within. A small, grey creature cries out in disapproval, but shies away from confrontation with the horrible brute. A titanic orange beast hurls itself at the villainous viridian horror, but is ignored as yet another innocent is destroyed beneath the monster’s mighty foot. This—This is kind of awesome, you guys! Article One – Membership Any independent cats and kittens may petition Deinos for membership in our fine alliance provided they are good standing with the world-at-large. Applicants may be accepted by the Tyrant King, the Utahraptor Prince or the Raptor Lord of Development. Upon acceptance new members are entered into the Academy under the charge of the Raptor Lord of the Development to promote their educational, national and cultural progress. The Academy requirement may be waived by the Tyrant King, the Utahraptor Prince or the Raptor Lord of Development. Members may be removed from Deinos by a two-thirds majority decision of either the general membership or the government. Article Two – Governance Deinos is led by a fairly elected government made up of a Tyrant King, Utahraptor Prince and a Council of Raptor Lords, each tasked with a specific aspect of leadership. The Tyrant King is elected by the membership to a six-month term and serves as the head of state of Deinos, overseeing the work of its government, serving as Deinos’ primary ambassador to the world in times of peace and chief negotiator in times of war. He is additionally responsible for the appointment of a Utahraptor Prince, as well as for filling any vacancies on the Council of Raptor Lords. The Utahraptor Prince, or Dromiceiomimus Princess, is appointed by the Tyrant King to serve as a second-in-command and heir apparent, to exercise general executive authority and oversight, and to be a permanent understudy to the Tyrant King, and an immediate Viceroy if need be. In addition to these responsibilities the Utahraptor Prince is responsible for managing elections and for assisting the Raptor Lords in their individual departments. There are five Raptor Lords, each elected by the membership for a two-month term and responsible for a specific department of Deinos’ government. These include the Department of Diplomacy which is responsible for establishing and maintaining relations with foreign powers; the Department of War which is responsible for organizing and leading the military of Deinos; the Department of Development which is responsible for recruiting new members to Deinos, educating those members and arranging their trade agreements; the Department of Finance which is responsible for arranging foreign aid between members as well as tech deals and growth schemes; and the Department of the Interior which is responsible for encouraging membership activity, promoting alliance culture and ensuring that the membership is kept up-to-date on the affairs of both the world at large and the Deinos government. The government of Deinos reserves the right to appoint various other individuals to serve as advisors, deputies and other non-governmental officials. These members do not hold a vote in official government decisions but are welcome and invited to make their opinions known. Any member of government may be removed from office by a two-thirds majority decision of the general membership, or by a unanimous decision by the rest of government. Article Three – Alliance Procedure All standing treaties signed with foreign powers require the majority approval of the general membership, the majority approval of the government and the approval of the Tyrant King. This includes the signing of new mutual defence agreements, optional defence agreements and inter-alliance blocs, as well as the cancellation of such. The decision to enter into a war may only be made by a majority decision of the government with the approval of the Tyrant King. Upon entry into the war the Tyrant King is granted full authority to declare new fronts, as well as to negotiate peace on behalf of the alliance. Should Deinos be called into war by the activation of an obligatory defensive clause, the Tyrant King as the authority to initiate hostilities with those that would assault Deinos’ allies. Should the Tyrant King be absent for a period of more than two days without giving prior notice to the alliance, the Utahraptor Prince shall assume the mantle until such a time as the Tyrant King returns or is removed from office by the general membership or the government. Should the Tyrant King resign, the Utahraptor Prince shall immediately be appointed in his stead, pending the approval of the general membership. Should the Utahraptor Prince be unavailable or unable to assume the throne, the general membership shall elect a replacement from among the Court of Raptor Lords. Article Four – Charter This document is the official Charter of Deinos, and serves as the law of the land wherever the Deinos dickflag is flown. It may only be amended by a majority decision of both the general membership and the government of Deinos, with the approval of the Tyrant King.[/quote] Isn't that charter neat? I thought so too! We also have a government made up of some pretty fantastic cats and kittens, which you can find right below this. Tyrant King - [b]New Frontier[/b] Utahraptor Prince - [b]Bones Malone[/b] Raptor Lord of War - [b]Sandler[/b] Raptor Lady of Diplomacy - [b]Silver Empress[/b] Raptor Lady of Finance - [b]Divine Proportion[/b] Raptor Lord of the Interior - [b]Dera[/b] Raptor Lord of Development - [b]Magister Agricolarum[/b] Attorney General - [b]Friggin_Dracula[/b] So that's basically what we're all about!

Bones Malone Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 [center][img]http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk25/DivineProportion1/niceflag.jpg[/img][/center] As my last official announcement as Chairman of The Lost World, I have to say that it has filled me with a great sense of pride these past few months to be associated with such a fine group of people that we have had here. To all of our members, our allies, and our friends, I can only mention my own personal gratitude for being there when we needed you and for helping us make The Lost World such a special place for myself and hopefully everyone that has been a part of it. I am excited about the new opportunities afforded to us to be working with new people and new friends. Onwards Deinos! And, as always, your obligatory final tLW dinosaur related humor: [img]http://www.qwantz.com/comics/comic2-1789.png[/img] And, as Utahraptor Prince of Deinos, I now present to you our starting treaty list: MDoAP - Ronin ODP - Federation of Allied Republics ODP - League Of Shadows Treaty ODP - Down Right Awesome Group Of Nations o/ Deinos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandellav Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 =LOST= is very pleased to keep some friends and make some new ones as we keep our ODP intact. Also, I just learned the name of this alliance today. Much better than the previous names. Fetid Corpses is not a winning name for an alliance Chey. Also, Silver We're finally allies.

Bones Malone Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 I hope it goes without saying but we will frown upon any attacks on our former AA's of Gondor and The Lost World. We will see it as an act of war and it will make us very hurt, deep down. Except for Tim Mannion. He's a ghost on tLW's AA so you can go ahead and hit him if you want. Any other attacks are bad though. Yep, Gondor and The Lost World AA's will be protected until the end of March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Fingolfin Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 As a founder of Gondor it causes me some sadness to see it cease to exist, but it warms my heart to see it reborn into something new as well. Best of luck Chey and all my other former Gondorians. O/ Deimos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
