The Black knights recognizes the random appearance of our former protector on orbis, and offers it's protection. Ca$h money and welcome back Syndicate. /S/ Papa and co. (The vocal non silenzio'd) /$/ Them, maybe. Probably not.

Can confirm.

tS, BK, the original anthem... Let's go with the first meme on the BK recruitment thread Today is nostalgia day.

It was a simple time when we all won wars through updeclares and left upper tiers to be sitting ducks.

I was the ninth downvote, can confirm that this was actually an underestimation. It should be around 12 downvotes by the 21st

Glad SOMEONE still remembers the OG anthem. As a note though, it's Silenzio with a Z, not a C.

Is this just a department of IQ or an actual Bloc/Sphere?

You deleted at the start of the war for the good of Pantheon? I mean, you deleted after committing us to a war and while you were in charge of coordination. You did jack shit to keep any backup or to make sure the place would have anything to go by. If it wasn't for Yui, the people who stepped up and the help we received back then from t$, we'd have been beaten up even worse than we were and yet you are coming in as if you could save Pantheon and your government slanders Yui, who has kept the place together for so long. And I think pretty much anyone with a brain doesn't need to let you mess around once more to judge your performance, because you should've burned your chance the first time around. So, when are you going to delete again and go back to the garbage bin of Orbis' history where you belong?

Congrats to Polaris and TUE. Condolences to OWR.

Lol I like this really helpful topic. I will learn a lot from it Also why is your nation link not a nation link, you have to make it a nation link

How many downvotes will this spam post get? "Vote now on your phones!"

Several months ago I began development on a personal tool called Ferret, a web application which can be used to estimate nation revenue and resource production. This was loosely based on an old project I never finished. It periodically scrapes the API for data about each active nation in the game, then provides a web interface for viewing it and simulating changes. For several reasons, I never finished it, and it has not been updated for quite some time now. Since I don't really have further interest in developing it, I am releasing the code to the public, in the hope that it can be of use to someone. You can see an example of its output for my nation in the attached screenshot. Source: https://github.com/Lyrositor/pnw-ferret License: CC0 1.0 Universal - Basically, do whatever you want with it. You don't need to provide attribution or get permission to use it. Demo website: http://lyros.net/ferret/ Important notes: Ferret is out of date. There have been several updates to P&W since it was last updated, so some values are now very inaccurate. It is not 100% accurate. For reasons I never fully figured out, nation revenue is off, even when accounting for things like radiation/seasons/etc. (which Ferret does not currently take into account on its own). I am releasing this as is, with no additional instructions. I can try to answer questions if you have any, but if you want to set it up yourself and run it, you're mostly on your own. To anyone familiar with Python and Vue.js, however, it should be pretty straightforward. Most of the code that probably interests you is in the "ferret.pnw" package. This is the package responsible for calculating all the P&W formulas. Feel free to gut it for your own projects. Recently, there appear to be some issues with the API data. Some entries are not getting parsed correctly as a result. I haven't investigated it yet. The permission/authentication system is a legacy of my old plans for this. Now that it's open source, anyone can use it, so the whole thing could be stripped out for simplicity's sake. I may do this at some point if there is some interest. If people are interested in this enough, I may go back to work on it, but right now I have no further development plans for it. Cheers.

Nice and simple like in the old days. I'm too lazy for anything else. We'll make a more colorful and more extensive announcement once we take over.

FACT: Zeebrus has always pulled the strings behind the Syndicate. ...those with open eyes will see...

I support anything that makes this grouping easier to hit every 6 months. Congratulations.

We see through your lies, Chaunce.

As an outsider with a genuine question... @The God Emperor of Mankind, I’m noticing you dodge the comments about you ghosting Pantheon and how Yui had to step up to carry YOUR abandoned alliance through a war during your first tenure. If I were a longtime Pantheon member, I’d want to know how it is you deemed yourself the savior when you went AWOL as leader. How are you expecting to retain membership when you can’t necessarily be trusted to lead through difficult times? I’m sure your heart is in the right place but this seems like asking an arsonist for a water hose. Pantheon has been in trouble for awhile. If you wanted to be Superman, you’re a day later and a dollar short.

Putting a smiley in an official alliance announcement title is grounds for impeachment in my opinion. You've been warned Felkey

Weren't you the guy that ran away from leadership and the AA right before TEst hit you all? I find the idea of you being the one who "saves" anyone to be.. Well, lackng. I had the pleasure of dealing with Yui during that rough time for Pantheon, and there have been few people to earn my respect quicker than Yui. If anyone is needed to lead Pantheon, it's Yui.

So you don't deny taking advantage of privileged information for personal gain and rewriting the charter without discussion or input, thank you, it is very interesting.

Since these are basically unreadable how about I just tell them what was in those logs? After you took information I shared with you in confidence (about the merger) given you were one of pantheon's founders and took over the government, you changed the charter without discussion to give yourself supreme control. You then stripped existing gov of their perms in game... Except one. I went to that one person to ask them to appoint themself as leader in game and remove you so that the situation could be sorted out without this insanity. They initially refused, but after another day of watching you disgrace Pantheon they left and took the bank. I have been very open with our allies about this, so it's not like it's anything new to them. I took a shot to stop a hostile take over of the alliance I started put in. An alliance I had many friends in, including many who came over to TCW.  Edit: you also forgot to mention I did return the portion of the bank I had access to, despite having no pressing reason to, beyond it being the right thing to do.

Oh no, did Pantheon leak that part of the plan too? Aw shucks, guess NPO and BK will just have to make the MDPs secret.

Glad to see the guy who as leader, abandoned Pantheon at war is back to save the day. Order of business: 1. Change charter, take ultimate power. 2: Remove majority of government. 3: Attack, plot and shame former Pantheon leaders and members who helped repair Pantheon after you abandoned them the first time. 4: Actively plot against TCW and get leaked. 5: Treaty IQ?

Looks just like more unproven slander against someone like cakey. You have literally no business in Pantheon for months and then you come back and accuse cakey of being involved in a plot. Your new head of FA lies about Yui and calls her a terrorist and traitor and you "recognize her contributions". You abandoned Pantheon and she saved Pantheon's ass. You let RightHonorable post these things in your alliance and one of your members has made it possible for everyone to see that. You're responsible for his actions and don't condemn what he did or what he said. You're complicit in this and it shows what kind of person you are. It's also nice to see that @RightHonorable seems to be able to upvote your post but is not able to say something about the crap he has posted in your alliance.

No one can read your logs, mate.

Following the Meiji Restoration of 1868, the ancient Japanese state had reformed itself into a modern nation state as the Empire of Greater Japan. Through the tireless efforts of the Japanese people, guided by the Emperor and his advisors, the Empire made great progress in catching up the western powers and soon overcame its status as a victim of imperialism, as it joined the ranks of great powers, after the victory over the Qing 1895 and over Russia 1905. With the expansion into Korea, Taiwan and Karafuto, Japan even cemented its regional standing and soon became one of the premier powers in the Pacific, following the occupation of the Russian Far East following the outbreak of chaos in Eastern Siberia, as well as taking over the Philippines and other Pacific posessions as the United States of America seemed to fragment. Now, ruling over a true Empire of several thousand islands, the Empire seems to be at the zenith of its power, yet, it is hard to tell how Japan will develop, as the country still is split between the different factions of Imperialists, Liberals and Moderates, with great powers vested in the military, which is viewed as a stabilising factor in these harsh times where countries seem to disintegrate all around Japan. General Information Capital: Tokyo Population: 94 million Government Head of State: Emperor Yoshihito Prime Minister: Sanjo Tamotsu Minister of Home Affairs: Kurihara Rentaro Minister of Foreign Affairs: Takeyama Shinichi Minister of Finances: Tennoujin Masatake Minister of War: Koizumi Genta Minister of the Navy: Arashi Hisahide

Oh man, that brings back some memories. And yes, your surprise protection will be a great asset for the greater good of the Syndicate Corporation. Old school. Most of our wars were fought that way, and they seemed to always involve the most fun.

I was the 14th down vote

Sooooooo Arrgh and NSR decided to mass raid us.... Have a nice day! Atlas recognizes hostilities with Arrgh and NSR

Deja Vu.

*something something birthday. Something something I can feel better than the rest for a short time even though there is not much reason to*

The pictures below are from the street I live on earlier this week after we got hit by a tornado, I have been out of power and running water for the last few days, and its probably going to be a good week before I get it back. As much of a shit storm as that is, I can say with confidence that this Pantheon thing is a much bigger shit storm.

Shifty. That Pantheon joke freakin' killed me. My sides.

WHY does this matter so much as I was Told 1. Panth gov started merge talks and neglected to notify members (all of this was good up to failure to notify members) 2. Some gov picked / couped to make the founder in charge 3. Some one stole the bank (again) and sent it to tcw 4. Members who were not happy in panth left and thoes who are happy stayed past that there really isn’t any argument or need for slander from either side, what panth does is their business. In the end the alliance is here to appease the members and not a bunch of people on the owf (shocking I know) so why not let them figure it out in damn peace.

Wasn't my plan at all, the fact you took a joke on face value is amusing as you should learn Australian's will shit post in discussions. Yes sometimes it may come back to bite us, but I had every intention of merging as I viewed it as the best option for a crumbling Pantheon that was begging to get rolled. You would have to be daft to think we wouldn't consult our membership. We were still hammering out the details at the time of the rather unfortunate leak. The plan for the merge was this: 1: I contacted Felkey about the merge 2 weeks ago we discussed some basics (Current situation of Pantheon, our problems, why I wanted to merge, groundwork for a plan and how it would be successful, etc). 2: Felkey and I introduced it to our respective governments. We discussed amongst ourselves possible gov sets ups (We agreed upon half ex-Pantheon/ half tCW. Then we discussed who to take with us etc) 3: We continued the discussions, until the leak ruined the plans, shut down by the arrival of you and your two ex-TKR co-conspirators buddies. 4: We planned once all details were finalised, our governments would've held a vote. (I know for a fact that Pantheon's government would vote for the merge), not sure about tCW (But I was told that they supported it as well). 5: Once approved by government, we would have brought our plan to the general membership of Pantheon for a vote. If approved by a majority of members we would commence the merge. I envisaged the merge completed within the month, with an AA of 120+ members, combined with the experience of some Pantheon and tCW gov, not only would that outrank TKR in score, but we would also be in a much better situation for Pantheon especially, as we had lost several long term members (Yui, most importantly) so it seemed only natural for Pantheon to merge into tCW. (Also keep in mind we already had several members in tCW, who had left in the months before, that only adds to the case that the merge seemed to be the right choice for us.) So yes Fist you were once leader of Pantheon. But you left many years ago, leaving us hanging during war. I would have wanted to stay in Pantheon, as I spent 2 years in this alliance. But I and many others recognised that things weren't working. A merge was a fresh start, a new beginning for us. But alas it was destroyed by people who may have thought they were valiant defenders of Pantheon against a supposed 'tyrannical' government. When in fact it was they themselves who were the tyrants, removing people who served in government for months, (myself including) and who before this incident had unshakable loyalty to the membership of Pantheon. I don't know what you've been telling the remnants of Pantheon, but for me to receive messages from people who I helped grow, through our finance programs. That I couped Pantheon and was a saboteur, quite honestly pisses me off. When you were the leader of Pantheon you used IRC, you didn't make the Discord server. For you to use the creation of Yui and others hard word to turn around and slander the deposed rightfully legitimate government of Pantheon is a low act. So yes I nuked the Discord and left it barren apart from the general chat. Not least because I didn't want my work to go to people slandering me. But more importantly I didn't want my friends work to be used in slandering them. I did it on behalf of others. So no Fist we didn't screw you over or coup anybody, you did. A great opportunity for Pantheon was thrown away because of someones arrogant pride, to echo the words of Vince McMahon, "Fist screwed Fist"

@Yui - It has to be done.

So, untrue, @kastor. But, then again no one is suprised you would come and post idiotic comments like this! Meritless!

And just when you thought they had finished suffering.

Net happiness increase is the ultimate goal.

Get the Hell outta here with your 4d chess occam's razor bullshit. This is the advent of the 5d age. Go hibernate in your cave until you understand the dynamism of a 6 month NAP, old man.

For those of you that are unaware, there is a city age bonus to population that is equivalent to (DaysOld/3000)% This bonus was added when the game was first made because I didn't want every city to have the exact same population (I just thought that would look lame.) Like a lot of things, there wasn't much foresight for how it would play out years later. Nowadays, the oldest cities are nearing 4 years old (1460 days) and that is equivalent to an almost 50% increase in population. It has a huge effect on gameplay, when in reality, it was not intended to have any real effect at all. My proposal is here is not to even cut the income of any current nation, or reduce the bonus, but to simply cap it at some arbitrary number that is above whatever the maximum bonus currently is (oldest city in the game's bonus.) That means that they will not continue to have an increasing population in that city (or any city subsequently that reaches the maximum age for the bonus), but they will still retain all of the bonus that they have received thus far, and newer nations will experience growing bonuses to the same point. Given that there have been many calls to either severely reduce the effect of city age on population, and to just plain remove it as well, I think this is a very fair proposal. Just looking for some feedback here and to see if everyone else thinks this is as reasonable of a solution as I think that it is. Let me know with either Likes/Dislikes or comments.

They don't think it be like it is, but it do.

This is a pretty good suggestion. Land becomes useful for things other than spamming farms. It would also be a good idea to *cap* the effect of land increasing population at some point, so land doesn't get too OP. Like, if land is over 5000, it does no longer increase pop in city X/or a max % cap on the bonus land gives to pop.

"We're offended by something someone said to Kastor, despite the fact that he routinely says way worse things. Anyway, here's our treaty, which contains the word 'towelhead'." - Consistent people

Well, I can get off now, at least.

Uhh, you have 7?(One of your wars is against some random guy who is not affiliated with either TGU or TM) And you're winning 3 of them. One of the ones you're winning against is a guy who is still sleeping and you got the IMU to ambush the Misfits by repealing a NAP treaty, you took 2 days to prepare your forces and in those 2 days, you didn't make that missile arsenal you have been threatening us with. You have been telling us that some bigger alliance is going to come down and kill us like some sort of angel to save you from those "micro-meanies" and you've been acting like the Misfits are aggressors claiming that they're the equivalent to the Axis Powers of world war 2 when all that seemingly happened is that you just brought back tensions and formed some coalition to get some revenge against the Misfits. I'm not sure why you're acting like you're an amazing micro god who is defending your homeland from the filthy Misfits or whatever. I get you and the Misfits have some sort of rivalry but this... this is something else. Anyways, good luck in the war.

With Ayylah as our witness, jihad begins today to defend the holy land from non-believers and to rid the world of infidels. We shall fight to the death to defend Jerusayylmao, the Dome of Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson, and all of our other beloved holy sites. Then we shall push towards Rome and convert the entire world to Ayyslam as He has commanded. There is no God but Ayylah and Lmaohammad is his messenger.
