TKR awards ended, NPO man bad is mad because they can't ruin these The only award that matter went to the right user once again

You're missing the larger context, it is a famous piece of work from the absolutely insane timecube screed: https://timecube.2enp.com/ . It's not meant to be taken literally, obviously. It is a work of art; prose from a higher plane of existence. Even at face value that's some pretty weak shit man. I mean, dumb, snot for brains? Come on now. Not to mention that I myself, and most of the other people here are American. I'd be happy to excise it if Alex and friends deem it to be unfit but frankly you don't even have the shadow of a case, and by the look of your recent reports, you're just having a normal one.

Pretty much what it says on the tin. Let alliances place embargoes and let their member nations opt out if they wish. Let this be against other alliances ir individual nations. A spy intel mission on said nation will let folks know if they are currently following thier alliance embargo or not.

Nation Link: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=175469 Ruler name: Sardonic Nature of Violation: Has offensive language in nation's custom description insulting Americans.

Oh, my bad I thought you called me a prawn

Nation Link: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=186003 Ruler Name: Joi Nature of Violation: Nation has drug related content referencing "Marijuana" where minors could potentially see in their custom description. Nation is also seemingly against able bodied people implying there is no stairs available to use, its unnecessary discrimination.

Nation Link: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=177035 Ruler Name: Janjaweed Nature of Violation: Has grotesque images on nation page for military unit icons. His ruler name "Janjaweed" is also the same of group that committed genocide and other war crimes quite recently https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janjaweed.

Nation Link: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=177118 Ruler Name: Angst Nature of Violation: Has an obvious reference to a sexual act "Creampies", vulgar and highly offensive. His OBL team name is also highly sexualized and offensive.

Uh juss FYI Cowe fartz sett da hol werld on fyre. Butte we swished 2 grasse, so dun wrry. An TOOTS iz a cogg in da masheen dat will nevr B stoped, sew wash ur werds. Sinsteerly, Da Cowz

I am quite the fan of the long con.

You're starting to sound like TKR and Coal A. Oh my, was Jazz just playing us all ?

That makes it sound like there are more than three people in Kingsgloves. Did you get a fourth?

There you have it.

Our coalition allies and ourselves act in concert at all times.

Yup. At most perhaps a direct notification or message when the alliance unembargoes you saying 'this single list of people still have national embargoes placed on you'.

yeah we're def. losing any day now

https://ibb.co/QkMgxSm As a member of IF - I can go on record and say that we received many, not all, and a few have left since. We welcome everyone who came over and it has been great fun getting to know people that I've known more and talking to those I have only seen in passing. Whether these guys want to remain here in IF or depart to new alliances or stick with us, its up to them. At this point, I think everyone can call it what they want. It's 2020 - please don't assume alliance statuses.

Make them and send them to Alex

I don't need your money now that keno is gone

The weakest link.

Greetings, and thank you for your report. We are truly sorry that you consider our nation's custom description too long. Please understand that it is a graph showing of the effects that United States presidential candidate Herman Cain's "9-9-9" policy on taxiation would have on the average household's tax liability, divided into income percentiles and represented graphically on a linear scale. We believe it is important to educate guests of our nation page on the effects a "flat tax" rate as proposed by Mr. Cain would have on the economy and why there is no such tax policy in our nation. Again, we apologize for any inconvenience or mental anguish that understanding the effects of a "flat tax" policy would have. If you would like to avoid this in the future we recommend that you "click and drag" the scroll bar to the right side of your screen on most modern browsers, or make use of the "Page Down" (PgDn) button on your keyboard if you have access to such. Yours sincerely, San Fortunado

Methinks you don't understand the English language, but it's okay, we're in the same boat. HODOR!

Congratulations on not being the average, an average literally means some people don't fall in it. Hopefully you enjoy eating popcorn to all the drama on the forums though. ?

I don’t get the vehemence behind the detractors of change. Except of course that, irrespective of cause but not of personality, it’s the same people who pop up flapping their gums in opposition time and again, rarely with a logical argument. At least in that sense it’s no surprise. Anyway, I hold the tenuously charitable position that collectively those against this idea have successfully made their dubious point, and encourage them to now mind their own business in the interests of keeping this thread productive. For my part it seems apparent there is a stimulus for change given that many people from all over Orbis have voiced dissatisfaction about the current awards. I’d go so far to say that almost any change that attempts to make these awards more genuine and meaningful is better than what we currently enjoy. This is not to dispute the one player one vote ideal, just that it works as well as democracy almost everywhere else. Whatever happens though, idiots will be triggered (a basic tenet of life in the modern world), but they can also be ignored. This idea of Hope‘s may be a significant improvement, and I think it a worthy undertaking even if it results in failure. Good on you for giving it as go!! I’d happily participate however that might look ?? Have a great day everyone ?

Greetings Gentle Folk of Orbis, Ever since the conception of Great Job! Charlie and myself have been trying to do various things to keep this game entertaining for us and others. When we created Soup Kitchen we wanted to do various events/projects/material and call them 'Community Outreach Programs'. Information on the first Community Outreach Program can be found here. Although Charlie has since transitioned his Travel plans to include the great beyond, we still wanted to present you with more material to (hopefully) enjoy. Below is a video that includes an 'album' of sorts from some of our material new and old. You may have heard some of the tracks such as "Hobo Express" and "Soup is Hot", but there are a few new ones in there as well. Ivory Tower of Bros presents - Community Outreach Program Vol 2 Warning: Some Explicit Language Track Listing: 1. Hobo Express (2:38) 2. War On Orbis (3:19) 3. The Soup Is Hot (3:36) 4. All I Play Is PnW (3:45) Special shout out to JKell. We miss you and hope all is well. May your Holidays be meaningful and your soup be hot, Kev

Omg this is cool idea and why people see this as being pathetic one? Like in real life we have Oscars, Cannes, Golden Globes for movie awards etc. So what is problem here to have more awards but done in different way? Current one are ok but pretty bad when it comes to explain why somebody won, only because had the most votes ans that's all... I liked somebody made awards for micro alliances as well because they are mostly missed in current awards. Not sure how successful it was but still at least somebody tried to do something new...

Thanks for trying to do something nice, hope. I'm sorry so many people are triggered by it. But don't let that put you off.

I am 100% in favor of an alliance that has a mandatory Gay Space Communism requirement. We weren't strict with that enough in CoS

You are the only one here trying to make this about politics. The rest of us here are literally trying to reach out to you all and get you to join in on making the system better, which would also have the side effect of counter-balancing any supposed power that we have. While you personally may not think there's anything to be improved upon, that is not representative of your alliance and, to be quite honest, I don't think it's representative of your actual opinion either. If the concern you actually have that you're not saying is over in-game awards, you can relax. No one on this team cares about the awards going in-game and we're not looking to make this into a Coalition A circlejerk to have us get positive awards/you get negative awards. There won't even be negative awards besides Worst Alliance Leader, which we all know exists just for @TheNG (?). Join or don't. We'd love to have you get involved and have Coalition B represented but if you want to make your ally's idea to try and facilitate a better, more balanced awards system into some conspiracy to have Coalition A retcon awards, that's your prerogative. These concerns are not new or influenced by the outcome of the awards nor are they only from Coalition A... From Teaspoon (GOONS) on the Community Awards From Comrade Milton (GOONS) on the awards in general Mad Max (also not Coalition A): All of those were well before the award results were ever decided or revealed. Regarding a "secret" cabal, it's not secret. Everyone's aware who's on the panel and there are some guards in place to try and maintain objectivity. The current idea is to include literally about 60 alliances all across Orbis, all the results are going to be publicly viewable, and alliance leaders can't nominate or vote your own alliance. Transparency is absolutely a valid concern and that's why everything all throughout this process is going to be as visible as possible. It's also not a cabal as there is still a part of this process designed to include general membership. Also, this is still a working idea. There is still room for movement and ideas to be weighed, considered, and added. Hope came up with the idea and just reached out to all of us today. This literally just got started. We're working on refining his idea with him and would like you guys to be a part of that process as well.

Going to respectfully decline on this one. Increasing the GC penalty will only compound the issues with this war system's balance, which is already way out of whack on beiges and Vacation Mode alone.

Obviously you're looking at this from the wrong angle. The first thing that we need to do is quintuple the cost of aircraft. The second thing that we need to do is implement those changes. The third thing that we need to do is remove aircraft entirely.

Well this thread is entertaining to read.

Since the major problem right now is the infinite war and one side waiting for the other to delete I think we need a solution So I propose that if a player militarization stays under the 10% for an entire month and the player is active for at least 25 days of that month there's the option to enter in a month of beige, once you enter you can't leave for the entire month, you don't get the color bonus, the treasure bonus or having a treasure spawn in your nation, you can't spy, you can't play baseball or other games, you can't use credits to help your economy, you have a limit of 2000 infra,, you can't stockpile nukes, but you can rebuild your cities, trade, rebuild military In this way no one will be able to do what IQ is doing right now that damages the game and not only single players and alliances You can chose to beige some of your players and keep others at war or try to have everyone beiged for a month to avoid war/restart the war/peace talks, but you get at least one month of beat up because with the 10% at best you can buy some soldier, the winning side is still able to hit players who aren't active enough to enter in the month of beige Numbers can be changed but this gives an idea

Cuz da warr iss takin s'long an iz gettin reel boresville an dere iz so mich clickin an nothin happenin, it shuld b calld: Da DMV War

Might I suggest "Target Rich Environment"? ?

I imagine that the feeling I get reading Noctis’s threads and posts is a similar feeling as having a bad trip on drugs.

The only real political spectrum

Horseshoe theory is real, only the center of the shoe is anime

True King Noctis Anarch Caelum of Ethereum, Founder of the Noosphere Social Club, please desist with your illogical boastfulness: you know full well that you have no chance of survival if you continue to fight against the full might of the GOONS Alliance! Is this what one has heard called, "A Death Wish?" Why do you put on such a display of bravado, when you know that continuing the war against GOONS will result in your nation crumbling to dust?! You may submit your response to this query in the form of an anime AMV - in fact, this one encourages it.

lol. Says the game guy who ten years for now would go off at the thought of disbanding alliances in an online sim. You're so sad.

Funny, you guys had your chance to change the cycle. Guess thinking outside the box isn't really NPO's forte. Good luck to KT in the future.

needz mor cowz

Nice field of straw humanoids you have there, friend. Are you normally this far up your own rear, or is today a special day where you put extra effort into smelling Ayn Rand's farts?

the creator of GOONS, Marx, has always been a benevolent leader. Why, just the other day, some of our outstanding citizens saw rainbows with Marx's face. This spurred him to such caring sentiment to increase our food rations to 1.5k food per day. We even have some non-starving nations.

do you also think the DPRK is actually a democratic republic of the people do you think animal crackers are made from real animals do you think Belgian waffles actually come fron Belgium do you think French fries are French just because people call something a thing doesn't mean it is that thing just because you think you're not an idiot doesn't mean it's true

Why is anyone in power? You're talking about Communism, the very first and most important criteria of which is the abolition of the state. Oh wait you're one of those dipshits who thinks that generic totalitarian dicatorships are Communist because the ruling body calls themselves a communist party. lol.

Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man
