  1. As of the time of this post, IronFront has achieved White Peace with our opposition in Chaos and KT-TGH spheres including any and all associations related to those groups. This war has been long, we don’t think anyone in the world of Orbis can disagree with that. IronFront entered this war as a smaller, new alliance shortly after it began and we entered with a mission to fight; fight hard, and be the best we can be within our current status and size. Additionally, we set goals for ourselves and we met these goals with pride. Throughout the war, we have seen some great times and some pretty dark, toxic times - however, IronFront has stood true to its own values, we’ve held our ranks and have seen tremendous internal growth and experience gain. Due to the growth we have seen internally, our goals being met, and our alliance-wide satisfaction with what we achieved while also staying on top of politics and noticing the steady decline in positivity within the community - we decided it was in our best interest to reach across the divide of this war and open a positive dialogue with opposition leadership. We are happy to say after a long discussion about where we stand and what our beliefs are on both sides, we have come to conclude that White Peace is the best option for both parties. It is our belief that war and the destruction it brings is enough to ask for when meeting at the table to discuss an end to hostilities. We have both lost and we have both received victories during this long war - therefore we are both victorious in our efforts. We want to thank not only our Coalition for being great allies, but also thank the opposition - mainly Kev, Keegoz, Kmhearl, and Kadrienne for allowing us to open a positive dialogue and have some fun with each other, meeting on common grounds was our goal and y’all proved to us that it was an achievable feat. IronFront has always wished to see a positive community ending for this war. We hope that others who are willing to open a dialogue with your coalition or opposition do just that - we are all leaders of something we have founded which means you choose what you’re willing to do - or not do. Thank you, Tom, König Max, Fürst Prinz ...and all of us at IronFront Strength and Honor, Hail to The Winged Spear!

  3. With the rage of the war elephants sated, the Carthaginians had finally stepped through the trials and tribulations of the war. They came to see the light and saw that is green. It was time to dial up the Syndicate. Article I: Non-Aggression To keep the money flowing, harbours are best kept open. Therefore, the undersigned agree to abstain from any deliberate action contrary to the wellbeing of either signatory. Any and all issues that arise will be resolved through diplomatic channels. Article II: Mutual Defense In the event that elephants are poached or corporations defrauded, the undersigned agree to intervene militarily, politically and, if they desire, economically, to assist the other party in their defense against aggressors. Article III - Optional Aggression Bewitched by certain Snakes, Elephants and Corporations may wish to follow the great, green light for some extra fun. Consequently, the undersigned reserve the right to join each other in offensive operations. Article IV: Intelligence Sharing The death of Empires and Corporations lies in the unknown, thus the undersigned agree to inform the other party of any intel pertaining to threats against their security, as soon as reasonably possible. Article V: Chaining To Waldo’s great displeasure, the chains that bind us only go so far. In the event that a signatory is attacked as a result of their fulfillment of third-party obligations, Article II of this treaty is to be considered optional. Article VI: Cancellation Since, not all deals last forever, nor are treaties between empires eternal, if either party wishes to end the treaty, they must provide 72 hours notice prior to cancellation, during which this treaty will remain in effect. Signatories For Carthage: Suffet: El Chach Elder: Asierith Elder: Krampus Elder: Daveth Elder: Antonio For the Syndicate: Leopold von Habsburg, Chief Operations Officer Utmos, Chief Financial & Security Officer Sisyphus, Strategic Planning Tl;dr: CTO and t$ like money and signed an MDoAP to tell everyone

  4. The funny part about your comparison is what Coalition B would be like in the story you created. Coalition B: Holding a gun to the younger brother’s head. “You stay in this war, or you die you worthless mofo”. It’s no wonder no one wants to stay in your Coalition.

  5. I guess you say that because you consider these two alliances "irrelevant" too. Same you've done with all the previous alliances that have surrendered or peaced out from your side. Can you give me a list of "relevant" alliances from your side so that I can know when to get my hopes up? I've started to think all of the alliances at your side are irrelevant.

  7. Are you talking about the people peacing out being the issue? I'd argue if you think its necessary to go nuclear on your allies (or allies allies) who've fought for 3 months alongside you just to avoid a morale boost on your enemies, then you are just re-enforcing my point about your confidence in said "victory". Not sure what the rest of your post is about. Yes, if people peaced out on our side we'd be down to a few diehards, they haven't yet? I'm not sure what your trying to get at here tbh. People on our side are free to do whatever they want. No one stopped North Point or Ming from peacing out nor complained about it as far as I'm aware. Anyway I will be happy to personally come to the table accept your surrender and present you with my meme terms whenever you like Roq.

  11. After careful consideration of the above proposal, ET hereby has decided it is a worthy proposal to be considered. After 23 hours of pillow fight and coke and pizza, followed by 42 mins in the toilet and 18 minutes of discussing which anime character has the best ass, ET hereby declares 6 things 1. ET has the right to attack anyone in Orbis unless they are an ally. 2. ET reserves the right to join either side in a fist fight. Or remain neutral. Or attack both sides. We hereby activate our one-sided ODP with every alliance in Orbis. 3. Your members are our members. ET reserves the right to poach from your alliance. This isnt valid the other way round. 4. ET is paperless. Our treaties are well-hidden behind tor-like networks, similar to the ones used by NPO. 5. Communism. ET is a capitalist commie alliance. We believe your wealth is our wealth. But our wealth isn't yours. 6. We also recognize a state of unease between every other alliance in Orbis. Allies and friends can rest at ease cause we wont attack you. Signed: ET GOV Signed: Literally every other alliance there is P.S.- In view of Point 2, we hereby declare war on Col. B

  13. It’s not even wanting the surrender that’s the issue, it’s the fact that you continue to hide your terms because you want the war to go on. In order to present your terms, you want us first to surrender. How ridiculous is that? Scenario: Side 1: wE WiLl oNLy tElL yOu TeRmS iF yOu SuRrEnDeR Side 2: Okay, in order to stop the war since it’s dragging on for so long - we surrender. Side 1: VICTORY!! YOU OWE US 300 BILLION IN REPS! Also, change your names to ‘Side 1’s !@#$’ . Side 2: No. We’re not doing that. Side 1: Pfft. You have already lost, you said so yourself. ‘Hey OWF, they surrendered! They lost! They said so themselves! Next round we can impose even harsher terms hurrdurr.’ You know full well that we (Coalition A) are in a much better place then what you (Coalition B ) are presenting, and this war is much closer than the current projection that’s put out. This is in all likelihood why you are threatening alliances in your coalition in order to keep them there.

  14. Arrgh never defined any such differentiation, we've always considered our raids as wars and wars as raids. Leave the quibbling for the e-lawyers, and leave the e-lawyers on the bottom of the ocean. As for GOONS, like every youngun' who considers themselves to be hot stuff they seek to prove themselves against our captains. Let's see if you're any tougher than all the other ones. Also those familiar with Arrgh history will know we never gave a damn about the rules or announcing wars either.

  15. The elephant people came, they saw, and they conquered Ming and House Arryn agree to the following: 1: Ming Empire and House Arryn admits defeat to the forces of Coalition B (Memesphere), and pledges not to reenter the war on Coalitions A's side (KERCHTOG) or aid them by any means including treasure purchases, ghosting, holding bank funds, private resource trades or allowing any coalition A nation (KERCHTOG) to join Ming Empire or House Arryn for the duration of the conflict. 2: Ming Empire and House Arryn sign a 90 day NAP with the Memesphere, commencing once the entirety of KERCHTOG has achieved peace with the Memesphere. Violation of any terms in this peace treaty will result in the NAP being void. 3: Ming Empire and House Arryn agrees to repay outstanding debts totaling $265m to UPN. 4: Ming Empire declares George (Nation ID: 69922) as their true princess. Ming Empire will further host George's well written and respectful coronation as their Princess in the Orbis Central (or Alliance Affairs) sub-forum in a new thread. These sub-forums can be found on the PnW forums within 72 hours from the posting of this surrender. 5: Ming Empire and House Arryn will recognize "The Winged Spear" as their official religion for 6 months and post it on their page for that period of time 6: Ming empire must state Zodiac was best Chinese themed alliance ever created. This statement can be made in an announcement on the Foreign Affairs subforum of the P&W forums within 48 hours from the posting of this surrender 7: Ming Empire and House Arryn must state that it is their sincerely and dearly held belief, now and forever, that Clarke did nothing wrong.

  17. There's an issue with giving a morale boost to an opposing coalition whose most vocal leader claims to be winning/going to win and says stuff like "you'll see" any slightest bit of reason for them not to come to the table and accept the surrender/meme terms is problematic. Given it's possible this was known by Coalition A in advance, it only serves to prolong the war. If people on your side peaced out on the same basis, then you would be down to very few diehards as most of the alliances on your side have had it worse than the ones who have peaced out on our side.

  21. How is any of that relevant to anything I said. If you want to yap about irrelevant stuff why are you responding to me. If our strategy is holding out, so is yours. So I really don't see what your point is there either. Most of the micros who peaced out on your side were as loosely if not more loosely affiliated to your side than North Point or Ming are to ours (Both are direct Rose allies so idk what your point is there). What does what Buorhann is saying have to do with what I said in my original post? How does Buorhanns supposed arrogance have anything to do with your policy of people exiting wars? I feel like you are having an argument with yourself at this point.

  23. TI (properly known as The Dongminion) wasn't just for $yndisphere alliances (though it was much more profitable for them), it was open to any nation who wanted in. You had to pay very high taxes to join, but the bonus made it more than worth it, which is why so many nations joined and to this day it is still the largest alliance to have ever existed in terms of total score (outside of a certain bug that occurred once...).

  30. This is John Goon speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are perishing-you who dread knowledge-I am the man who will now tell you.” The chief engineer was the only one able to move; he ran to a television set and struggled frantically with its dials. But the screen remained empty; the speaker had not chosen to be seen. Only his voice filled the airways of the country-of the world, thought the chief engineer-sounding as if he were speaking here, in this room, not to a group, but to one man; it was not the tone of addressing a meeting, but the tone of addressing a mind. “You have heard it said that this is an age of moral crisis. You have said it yourself, half in fear, half in hope that the words had no meaning. You have cried that man’s sins are destroying the world and you have cursed human nature for its unwillingness to practice the virtues you demanded. Since virtue, to you, consists of sacrifice, you have demanded more sacrifices at every successive disaster. In the name of a return to morality, you have sacrificed all those evils which you held as the cause of your plight. You have sacrificed justice to mercy. You have sacrificed independence to unity. You have sacrificed reason to faith. You have sacrificed wealth to need. You have sacrificed self-esteem to self-denial. You have sacrificed happiness to duty. “You have destroyed all that which you held to be evil and achieved all that which you held to be good. Why, then, do you shrink in horror from the sight of the world around you? That world is not the product of your sins, it is the product and the image of your virtues. It is your moral ideal brought into reality in its full and final perfection. You have fought for it, you have dreamed of it, and you have wished it, and I-I am the man who has granted you your wish. “Your ideal had an implacable enemy, which your code of morality was designed to destroy. I have withdrawn that enemy. I have taken it out of your way and out of your reach. I have removed the source of all those evils you were sacrificing one by one. I have ended your battle. I have stopped your motor. I have deprived your world of man’s mind. “Men do not live by the mind, you say? I have withdrawn those who do. The mind is impotent, you say? I have withdrawn those whose mind isn’t. There are values higher than the mind, you say? I have withdrawn those for whom there aren’t. “While you were dragging to your sacrificial altars the men of justice, of independence, of reason, of wealth, of self-esteem-I beat you to it, I reached them first. I told them the nature of the game you were playing and the nature of that moral code of yours, which they had been too innocently generous to grasp. I showed them the way to live by another morality-mine. It is mine that they chose to follow. “All the men who have vanished, the men you hated, yet dreaded to lose, it is I who have taken them away from you. Do not attempt to find us. We do not choose to be found. Do not cry that it is our duty to serve you. We do not recognize such duty. Do not cry that you need us. We do not consider need a claim. Do not cry that you own us. You don’t. Do not beg us to return. We are on strike, we, the men of the mind. “We are on strike against self-immolation. We are on strike against the creed of unearned rewards and unrewarded duties. We are on strike against the dogma that the pursuit of one’s happiness is evil. We are on strike against the doctrine that life is guilt. “There is a difference between our strike and all those you’ve practiced for centuries: our strike consists, not of making demands, but of granting them. We are evil, according to your morality. We have chosen not to harm you any longer. We are useless, according to your economics. We have chosen not to exploit you any longer. We are dangerous and to be shackled, according to your politics. We have chosen not to endanger you, nor to wear the shackles any longer. We are only an illusion, according to your philosophy. We have chosen not to blind you any longer and have left you free to face reality-the reality you wanted, the world as you see it now, a world without mind. “We have granted you everything you demanded of us, we who had always been the givers, but have only now understood it. We have no demands to present to you, no terms to bargain about, no compromise to reach. You have nothing to offer us. We do not need you. “Are you now crying: No, this was not what you wanted? A mindless world of ruins was not your goal? You did not want us to leave you? You moral cannibals, I know that you’ve always known what it was that you wanted. But your game is up, because now we know it, too. “Through centuries of scourges and disasters, brought about by your code of morality, you have cried that your code had been broken, that the scourges were punishment for breaking it, that men were too weak and too selfish to spill all the blood it required. You damned man, you damned existence, you damned this earth, but never dared to question your code. Your victims took the blame and struggled on, with your curses as reward for their martyrdom-while you went on crying that your code was noble, but human nature was not good enough to practice it. And no one rose to ask the question: Good?-by what standard? “You wanted to know John Goon’s identity. I am the man who has asked that question. “Yes, this is an age of moral crisis. Yes, you are bearing punishment for your evil. But it is not man who is now on trial and it is not human nature that will take the blame. It is your moral code that’s through, this time. Your moral code has reached its climax, the blind alley at the end of its course. And if you wish to go on living, what you now need is not to return to morality-you who have never known any-but to discover it. “You have heard no concepts of morality but the mystical or the social. You have been taught that morality is a code of behavior imposed on you by whim, the whim of a supernatural power or the whim of society, to serve God’s purpose or your neighbor’s welfare, to please an authority beyond the grave or else next door-but not to serve your life or pleasure. Your pleasure, you have been taught, is to be found in immorality, your interests would best be served by evil, and any moral code must be designed not for you, but against you, not to further your life, but to drain it. “For centuries, the battle of morality was fought between those who claimed that your life belongs to God and those who claimed that it belongs to your neighbors-between those who preached that the good is self-sacrifice for the sake of ghosts in heaven and those who preached that the good is self-sacrifice for the sake of incompetents on earth. And no one came to say that your life belongs to you and that the good is to live it. “Both sides agreed that morality demands the surrender of your self-interest and of your mind, that the moral and the practical are opposites, that morality is not the province of reason, but the province of faith and force. Both sides agreed that no rational morality is possible, that there is no right or wrong in reason-that in reason there’s no reason to be moral. “Whatever else they fought about, it was against man’s mind that all your moralists have stood united. It was man’s mind that all their schemes and systems were intended to despoil and destroy. Now choose to perish or to learn that the anti-mind is the anti-life. “Man’s mind is his basic tool of survival. Life is given to him, survival is not. His body is given to him, its sustenance is not. His mind is given to him, its content is not. To remain alive, he must act, and before he can act he must know the nature and purpose of his action. He cannot obtain his food without a knowledge of food and of the way to obtain it. He cannot dig a ditch-or build a cyclotron-without a knowledge of his aim and of the means to achieve it. To remain alive, he must think. “But to think is an act of choice. The key to what you so recklessly call ‘human nature,’ the open secret you live with, yet dread to name, is the fact that man is a being of volitional consciousness. Reason does not work automatically; thinking is not a mechanical process; the connections of logic are not made by instinct. The function of your stomach, lungs or heart is automatic; the function of your mind is not. In any hour and issue of your life, you are free to think or to evade that effort. But you are not free to escape from your nature, from the fact thatreason is your means of survival-so that for you, who are a human being, the question ‘to be or not to be’ is the question ‘to’ think or not to think.’ “A being of volitional consciousness has no automatic course of behavior. He needs a code of values to guide his actions. ‘Value’ is that which one acts to gain and keep, ‘virtue’ is the action by which one gains and keeps it. ‘Value’ presupposes an answer to the question: of value to whom and for what? ‘Value’ presupposes a standard, a purpose and the necessity of action in the face of an alternative. Where there are no alternatives, no values are possible. “There is only one fundamental alternative in the universe: existence or non-existence-and it pertains to a single class of entities: to living organisms. The existence of inanimate matter is unconditional, the existence of life is not; it depends on a specific course of action. Matter is indestructible, it changes its forms, but it cannot cease to exist. It is only a living organism that faces a constant alternative: the issue of life or death. Life is a process of self-sustaining and-self-generated action. If an organism fails in that action, it does; its chemical elements remain, but its life goes out of existence. It is only the concept of ‘Life’ that makes the concept of ‘Value’ possible. It is only to a living entity that things can be good or evil. “A plant must feed itself in order to live; the sunlight, the water, the chemicals it needs are the values its nature has set it to pursue; its life is the standard of value directing its actions. But a plant has no choice of action; there are alternatives in the conditions it encounters, but there is no alternative in its function: it acts automatically to further its life, it cannot act for its own destruction. “An animal is equipped for sustaining its life; its senses provide it with an automatic code of action, an automatic knowledge of what is good for it or evil. It has no power to extend its knowledge or to evade it. In conditions where its knowledge proves inadequate, it dies. But so long as it lives, it acts on its knowledge, with automatic safety and no power of choice, it is unable to ignore its own good, unable to decide to choose the evil and act as its own destroyer. “Man has no automatic code of survival. His particular distinction from all other living species is the necessity to act in the face of alternatives by means of volitional choice. He has no automatic knowledge of what is good for him or evil, what values his life depends on, what course of action it requires. Are you prattling about an instinct of self-preservation? An instinct of self-preservation is precisely what man does not possess. An ‘instinct’ is an unerring and automatic form of knowledge. A desire is not an instinct. A desire to live does not give you the knowledge required for living. And even man’s desire to live is not automatic: your secret evil today is that that is the desire you do not hold. Your fear of death is not a love of life and will not give you the knowledge needed to keep it. Man must obtain his knowledge and choose his actions by a process of thinking, which nature will not force him t9 perform. Man has the power to act as his own destroyer-and that is the way he has acted through most of his history. “A living entity that regarded its means of survival as evil, would not survive. A plant that struggled to mangle its roots, a bird that fought to break its wings would not remain for long in the existence they affronted. But the history of man has been a struggle to deny and to destroy his mind. “Man has been called a rational being, but rationality is a matter of choice-and the alternative his nature offers him is: rational being or suicidal animal. Man has to be man-by choice; he has to hold his life as a value-by choice: he has to learn to sustain it-by choice; he has to discover the values it requires and practice his virtues-by choice. “A code of values accepted by choice is a code of morality. “Whoever you are, you who are hearing me now, I am speaking to whatever living remnant is left uncorrupted within you, to the remnant of the human, to your mind, and I say: There is a morality of reason, a morality proper to man, and Man’s Life is its standard of value. “All that which is proper to the life of a rational being is the good; all that which destroys it is the evil. “Man’s life, as required by his nature, is not the life of a mindless brute, of a looting thug or a mooching mystic, but the life of a thinking being-not life by means of force or fraud, but life by means of achievement-not survival at any price, since there’s only one price that pays for man’s survival: reason. “Man’s life is the standard of morality, but your own life is its purpose. If existence on earth is your goal, you must choose your actions and values by the standard of that which is proper to man-for the purpose of preserving, fulfilling and enjoying the irreplaceable value which is your life. “Since life requires a specific course of action, any other course will destroy it. A being who does not hold his own life as the motive and goal of his actions, is acting on the motive and standard of death. Such a being is a metaphysical monstrosity, struggling to oppose, negate and contradict the fact of his own existence, running blindly amuck on a trail of destruction, capable of nothing but pain. “Happiness is the successful state of life, pain is an agent of death. Happiness is that state of consciousness which proceeds from the achievement of one’s values. A morality that dares to tell you to find happiness in the renunciation of your happiness-to value the failure of your values-is an insolent negation of morality. A doctrine that gives you, as an ideal, the role of a sacrificial animal seeking slaughter on the altars of others, is giving you death as your standard. By the grace of reality and the nature of life, man-every man-is an end in himself, he exists for his own sake, and the achievement of his own happiness is his highest moral purpose.

  31. As was pointed out in the comments on this thread, yes these are useless stats, yes they are easily found if one spends time looking them up, and yes I'm wasting my time. I just like looking up stats for things and recording them, and I created this thread as a place where I can drop the stats I've found. If anyone has any requests for stats they want to know about, but don't feel like looking up on their own, feel free to @ me in the comments, and ask if I would look something up. I have way too much time on my hands, I'll probably do it. Rose score June 16: 342,676 .

  32. That depends entirely on what Sphinx meant by "cracking". In my very far from humble opinion, if BKsphere believes that someone in their coalition finding a mutually beneficial and positive peace deal (which was the point of the thread in which that post was made in) is "cracking", then BKsphere has some very real problems they'll have to work through, and the post did not age well. If there's another interpretation... I really don't know what it could be, really, and Sphinx's post still did not age well. Nobody on our side has said you've 'cracked'. Only Sphinx and a few others on the other side have. Either way, congrats to IF on holding their ground, both for the past 3 months and now. That takes grit, and nobody should disrespect grit.

  35. From a quick glance through my files, the most recent file recording I have that includes member count for the alliances was back on April 11, 2019, and it was an early attempt. TKR had 116 members, CoS had 42 members, SK had 37 members, Soup had 42 members, tCW had 60 members, Guardian had 35 members. I know it was old, because it seems I made it back when tCW was still allies with TKR, and Frontier Records still existed. It's a heck of a poor beginning for my recording stats in this game lol.

  37. I feel like this is information you should have divulged to me before we started working together. I don't think I can look at you the same way ever again now.

  39. This got out of hand, but we've all come to expect that by now. Congrats on peace Asie, enjoy the rebuild - And I trust that you're looking forward to Aus vs Wales in a few hours, up the wallabies! (Remember, if Japan beat Ireland, anything can happen)

  40. If you call being beaten into a bloody pulp, "winning" then you're at the front of the pack mate.

  41. That's impossible because i spend half my waking hours ruthlessly roasting mhearl even if he does not know it. The true power gap between us would never make such a thing possible. Now if you said it was abbas chaining me up that might well be the case, i'm pretty he could kill me with a well placed voice chat.

  44. Check... check... very check... solid check... neither side got that... check... neither side got that... check... extremely check... complete check. KERCHTUGOGQBVZ is winning by every single one of those metrics other than infra and allies, both of which neither coalition has any claim to. Edit: Actually, Grumpy *can* build out of range of your dudes, so we got the juicy infra covered too ?
