THE AWARDS ARE HERE! It is my distinct pleasure to announce that, after a great deal of blood, sweat, and tears, the 2024 Academy Awards are ready for voting! We appreciate your patience. As seems to be a yearly tradition, a great deal of things broke, but we have persevered to bring you the awards through a new method of voting. Rather than doing the usual three forum posts, the awards committee was asked to hold the vote for the awards in-game this year. As such, you will find every question for the awards at this link - https://politicsandwar.com/polls/view-all - and be sure to report any bugs you come across! The voting is currently set to close at the end of day Friday, March 28th. Whether this will be the in-game deadline or the irl deadline of 11:59pm is still to be determined. I would encourage everyone to join the awards server - found here https://discord.gg/NNvM8jdhnS - to keep up to date on the details. The awards show is set to be hosted by myself, Ashwin, and Morf at 9:00pm EST in the main P&W server - https://discord.gg/StN6RAUpz2 - on Saturday, March 29th. Feel free to reach out with questions, concerns, bugs, or any other comments!

Legion celebrated its first annual pub crawl last night. This Legion sponsored event showed several participants winning cash prizes. Legion did encourage all participants to drink responsibly and to not drink and drive. We are glad to announce our winners of this year's contest. George Patton - Cheapest Drink Fighting Hawk Most Expensive Drink Rob - Basic !@#$ Beverage Michael Lybrand - Classiest Drink Uncle Iroh - Most likely to fall down Kiwi - Best Flag We thank all participants for this year's pub crawl, and we look forward to next years!

Today marks an important milestone for The Fremen, it is our one year anniversary! 365 days ago this alliance started with one member. We were subsequently raided nonstop for our first month of existence, just as Alex originally intended. The slow crawl through the desert from #270 to #54 has taught us one very very important lesson… Some of you fellow smoll guys are just sooooo boring and spineless! We have run into alliance after alliance with simply no spark behind their eyes. No goal, objectives or direction other than score and money (ironically failing to gain either). Machines masquerading as men! We simply can’t abide by this! So today we announce the First Butlerian Jihad to destroy the machines or maybe even awaken the men and women hidden below. We formally declare a state of conflict upon every alliance below rank fifty. There are a lot of you so please wait your turns, we will get to you eventually. Only those who meet the following conditions will be given an exception: 1. You have partaken in the Spice mélange and gained the gift of foresight (you demonstrated having a spine, unlike most nanos). 2. We have crossed paths already and your blade has chipped and shattered. (We have fought with you successfully 1 on 1 or in a global war) Oh and any alliance made up of players over 30 cities. You guys are just kinda there, effectively out of our range and while hitting an offshores sounds fun and definitely on our future menu it’s not really our goal today…. you aren’t exactly independent alliances…. Notice something missing? We don’t care that you have a protectorate (or allies). Your protectors seek to help you and yet their protection makes you lethargic and complacent. We are massively out numbered in this fight but by all means prove that even when you have numbers on your side that you lack conviction, competency and ability. Will we lose? I sure hope so! It would be incredibly sad if we win! Into the wood chipper we go! TL;DR: Conflict trims fat and some of you lil ones are looking a lil chubby. Here some nano world memes for the macro & micro peanut gallery, enjoy!

Signed into my forum account just to say that I won the most "Basic Drink" for having a Guinness. Sue me.

I will challenge you for most likely to fall down next pub crawl

Thanks for finally beginning the voting. The fact that nations at c5 and below are not allowed to vote is really unfair, our votes should matter too. If new account vote fraud was your concern, then you guys can make voting available for nations that are founded X days before the awards nominations/voting poll was released. And hopefully there will be award badges given out

miku time

Its miku time!

The discord ticket has not had traffic in days . except me. Also I played around today and discovered Terrorize Civilians infra destroyed does not get added to any totals anywhere.

@Sketchy So, it seems like your alliance is cooked, feelsbadman, I can't imagine hemorrhaging activity and nations like that you hate to see it.. Or, ya would if y'know it happened to an Alliance that actually had good tacticians. From Superpower to little more than a mirco in thirty-three days. Sketchy should get a title called "Speed Run" with the requirements being "Ruin an Alliance in less than two months"

cross posting my own, was pop since I'm a child, and I had to drive lol.

Nah, all you need is missiles :3

put me on boss I'll make some drama

Happy birthday y'all! By far the most successful and competent merger of equals we've seen in years. Wishing you many more birthdays, especially if the cake is always this good! 🥳

Ladies ladies your both pretty and good raiders in your own way, this is meant to be a recruitment for vengeful not a catfight between you too so either get a room and make out or go somewhere else lol

Sketchy are you guys disbanding after this war ends? I only ask because you guys are putting up the type of performance I would expect to see out of a dying alliance and not a top tier one that I assume you guys think you are.

It feels like I've stumbled across a transmission sent by aliens

Lol you're out if your mind if you think we were going to rebuild after Sing had just spent the previous month stockpiling 7k+ projectiles

Because no one deserves that.

I'm still salty about the One Day War. The fact that it happened long before I was either in the game or in Singularity changes nothing.

Big farma must've struck a deal with big nukes or something idk

This is all a scheme by big farma to raise the food prices!

You guys have any idea what time it is? we are old, and we want to go to bed... but NOOOOO we gotta stay up now and do some half assed counter at 1130pm. Its called elder abuse, and i wont forget this Sing...

Heya. This is it, finally I am making a thread to complain about it. Captchas are becoming a constant obstacle for pretty much every action in the game—whether it's trading, declaring war, or doing spy ops. I've gotten to the point where, either because of my VPN or other causes, I trigger challenges basically 100% of the time now. These challenges can be tricky, too. I remember being stuck solving captcha after captcha in the past and not being given the green light. I know of a few others for whom this is a pain point also (hello @Xi Jinping!) Thankfully, the future is now. Introducing: Invisible Captcha v3. This version doesn’t rely on annoying challenge-based tests, but instead, it checks user behavior to ensure you're not a bot. It would save players from having to go through frustrating image puzzles for every little action. As a developer myself, I can tell you that implementing this isn't difficult. It’s a quick change, taking no more than a few minutes. I don’t think even the fabled Alex technical debt should be a blocker for this—it’s a straightforward change, and guess what, it's good for the user experience too! This isn't just about convenience anymore. The current captcha setup feels excessive, and frankly, I’m getting tired of training AI models for free every time I need to perform an action. An invisible captcha would keep the security measures in place but make them invisible to us—no more unnecessary interruptions.

Thank god the war is over, I'm glad to not have to ruin my sleep schedule anymore for snipes Gj to House for managing to pull off a counterblitz so far into the war, it was actually pretty impressive

I actually like this DoW.

TKR will never be able to recover from this.

I have raised this complaint before, so here goes again. I think it is inappropriate for P&W to adopt racist conventions in the colour names. When the B in black is capitalized, it can only refer to a proper name, or in the US, where P&W is based, a race. The same goes with capitalizing the W in white - Walter White, White Americans, and white paint. So I once again ask for this racist, stupid, juvenile pun to be corrected to Bigger black Knight. Let's go further this time, and suggest never capitalizing the colour in the name, or doing away with separating us by colour, and replace them with symbols or shapes. Unless it is @Alex's intention to be racist, which I do not believe to be the case...
