  1. ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY A year ago today, a joke rapidly got out of hand. Egyptian Empire and SPQR, two alliances brought together by Chach’s and Daveth’s mutual inclination to wandering, decided to throw caution into the wind and merge. The following year of discord chaos, long delayed radio shows and genuine fun has been one hell of a journey. To the members that made this possible, thanks for sticking it out through thick and thin. To the allies that we’ve had during this time, particularly t$ for sticking their neck out for us and OWR for being there from the very start, thanks for putting up with it all. It's thanks to you all, that this has worked. With the future ahead, we’re looking forward to the mess that awaits, with both mild confusion that we made it this far and the hope that the coming year, with Daveth as the new leader, will be even better than the last. Tldr, Blame Sval

  2. People of Orbis, In honor of the formation of the Valkorion Collective and our dear Emperor Valkorion, I am invoking my authority under the Rose Charter to declare that this week shall be henceforth known as "BValkanization Week" (thanks Shiho). To celebrate, please join me in donning a Valk-themed profile picture. Here is Valk's profile picture for reference: Additionally, we will be hosting many festivities on our Discord server: https://discord.gg/Fp5Ngqg. Stay tuned! Signed, Valkorion - Horizon Guard of Internal Affairs Valkorion - Knight of Internal Affairs Valkorion - Knight of Internal Affairs

  4. We are One, we are perfect, we are the Valkorion Collective. Delete your military and surrender your cities. We will add your memetic and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your alliance will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile. Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Valkorion The All? I thought not. It's not a story the $yndicate would tell you. It's a Rose legend. Darth Valkorion was a Emperor of Rose, so powerful and so wise he could use Keno to influence the code to create pixels… He had such a knowledge of Keno that he could even keep the ones he cared about from losing pixels. The dark side of Keno is a pathway to many cities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… The only thing he was afraid of was hegemonies. Fortunately, he taught his clone everything he knew, then his clone duplicated with him in his sleep. Sexy. He could save others from duplication, but not himself. Valkorion Collective rises.

  5. People getting mad over undercutting looks irrelevant af to me at least lmao. Sure Prefontaine and Yarr as a major offshore bank may not be irrelevant but Buck leaving them certainly is and I'm sure Yarr themselfes don't care much about the loss of Buck. Also lol at thinking being an old player makes you relevant.

  13. Joker would defend Batman against anyone who would attempt to kill him, since for him if anyone has the right to kill Batman it would solely be Joker. The same is true for our Punic friends, nobody would touch Carthago since salting the earth is our pleasure. ;,v

  18. The winning formula that served us well for 3 years is ended. 10 days ago, @cctmsp13 seized power in a unilateral re-interpretation of what his title meant, and demoted me for an action I did not have a chance to take. I have tried for the last week or so to explain my position, and find common ground. Let me explain the facts surrounding this betrayal: 1- @Prefontaine go upset because I placed an offer on the market that was below his. I have been very public in the past about believing in the free-market, and saw nothing wrong with it. Apparently he did, and it is not the first time we have had this discussion - I am not a price fixer, period, and he is free to collude with whomever he wants. 2- Since I had been regularly listing and relisting sales, I did not see it as undercutting him in any case. I was defending an earlier post. He insisted that I was lying and produced no proof, so I asked for an apology. Yarr had always been about credibility, and impugning the credibility of a fellow member has never been acceptable. Only 2 months earlier, I had broken up a similar fight between him and @Seb that almost escalated top that level (calling each other BSers...etc). This kind of refereeing is needed at times. 3- Pre refused to apologise because he is a small person, and will not be held to account for insulting his shipmates. I communicated to him that there would be consequences if he did not apologise. - He replied by threatening to leave if I was upset or needed an apology. Since he made such threats on a regular basis, I called his bluff. First, I asked another member of gov't for his balance. I sent him his deposit with Yarr, then asked again if he would apologise. He again threatened to leave, so I prepared to kick him. I had the absolute right to kick anyone at my discretion as it has been our standard practice since founding: the Landlubbers were equals, in sacrosanct, inviolable positions, who did not overwrite each others' decisions. They have been sequentially appealed before, but the only thing we ever agreed on needing a unanimous vote on was bringing new members on board. 4- Instead, as I went to kick Pre, I noticed that CCT had seized power, demoting me and removing the authority I had since I founded Yarr with Ripper's gentle push after a year of talk about it while at Arrgh long ago. I was prevented from doing the act that would have justified my demotion. 5- It took me a few days to get down to the real concern, all the while demoted. @Bluebearexplained the distinction between kicking and letting Pre leave, and once I understood it that way, I conceded. I should have let Pre have a few days to find a new home and let him leave. I had confused my promise of consequences with his offer to leave, and rushed to it. For that, I made the mea culpa clear, and apologised on our alliance forum. I then asked if all would be willing to listen to reconciliation plan that would be fair to all: for this I was trolled and further insulted, even though this would obviate the need for an apology from the little man. 6- In parallel, I had proposed to cct that he restore me and only then table the question of authority he wanted (a majority agreement on kicking people). To be clear, until this point, we have never really disagreed on anything, and the Landlubbers were equal. Since demoting me, CCT kept trying to assert that he was the leaders of the alliance, and assumed powers that no one ever granted him. I have nothing against democracy at all - many people will attest to this, but I groaned at having cct seize power and make agreement on anything a condition of my restoration. So, I proposed that HE restore me to the 'alliance leader' role and demote himself, since: a) I had already stepped down from the role, and did not want it. b) We were going to define what powers Leader and Heirs would have, so it would be a fitting display of trust to put me in that role while that was worked out. It was to be a display to restore trust and show that were would continue to work together. He ignored these suggestions and continued to simply insist that he was in charge and I would have to accept it. c) We always said that the one thing you can do to disqualify yourself for leadership at Yarr was to do something. @cctmsp13did something. I was genuinely concerned about his rash move, clearly not thought out, or the alternative explanation, which is that he was plotting to do this for sometime. I am afraid to report that there is more data on the latter case, as he has been reminding people that HE was leader of Yarr in a number of strange and out of place moments. To be fair, I should have challenged him on that and reminded him of the terms I sent him and @im317when they joined Yarr. d) I have never said no to any new initiative - want to write a constitution, sure. No problem. Want to formalise democracy, no problem. - This is where things really got out of hand. While I resented the demotion, I forgave it on the basis that it evened out the error I would have made in kicking Pre on the spot. Like I said, we have never had any disagreement. Neither @cctmsp13 nor @im317 had ever made the smallest peep about wanting a say in kicking anyone (not that I have kicked much, I put up with @Frezasan for years ffs (love ya buddy). After all of this, which took about 1 week, cct still sat on my restoration for another 2 days. When I got up this morning, I saw no reconciliation, nor even the slightest response when I asked if a proposal would be heard, and cct had restored me to my old position, which was not even coming 1/10th of the way to reconciliation after what I had been put through. So I left Yarr 1116 days after I started it, during which time it became the most stable and credible bank on Orbis and rose steadily. I prefer the company of equals, and bear no ill will toward anyone. While I am upset at the betrayal, the move to Hell was ironically to discuss steps forward with @cctmsp13as an equal, which has been denied to me for the last week and a half. I have maintained the Discord server, though curtailed their permissions now that they copied it, and left the bank intact as I am not a thief and never have been. This is the extent to which I will go to protect my good name and work only with people I can trust. Born in Arrgh, retired in Yarr, dead in Hell. Si vales, valeo.

  22. Didn't bother reading Buck's post because I'm sure it covered what was ranted at length. What I can tell you is that Buck has routinely been wrong either through personal ignorance or lies.When an alliance you help found won't stand beside you in a disagreement you might want to reevaluate your stance. The simple truth of the matter is Buck over-reacted of being poked fun at. When offered the option to move on he doubled, tripled, quadrupled down. Now that he's gone from his alliance, removed from the discord, he comes to cry publicly. Here's a summary of the events. VIDEO IS NSFW DUE TO LANGUAGE

  36. 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.

  41. Further search by the Black Army inside the raided house and its surrounding, finds some connections with an unknown terrorist organisation. Weaponry, explosives faked foreign passports from most major nations. Bodies were sent for autopsy in the capitol. It is presumed that either Israel has attempted to start a terrorist cell inside of Durotar to cause insurrections, because of its remoteness it could pose as a great headquarters, or something else linked to terrorism which would endanger either the safety of people of Durotar or Israel. Under law the citizens are able to have multiple weapons per head. The arms found in the search originate from sources which would be unavailable to ordinary citizens of Durotar to posses. Information about the autopsy would be sent to Israel, but for now information and pictures about the weapons, passports and everything already mentioned before would be sent to Israel and would demand an explanation.

  43. I really feel bad for you. Honest to God. If you want a loan for your war, go to Cobalt. I'll get you guys a low interest loan. @AntMan make it happen. Btw, when this war is over, tRE would love an alliance with such a bold alliance such as yours. Micro to micro. TI is no micro bucko.
