It's the sound you make when you rinse your mouth with Listerine.
Congrats to GoG though, they've certainly been growing well over the last three months. I wish them the best of luck in IQ.
I don't dislike anyone in it and I don't hate UPN but to me it just looks a little boring. It's the same old people running the same old alliance. Most of UPN's gov are the same ones who have been here for more than three years or even the same gov from cough cough that other game, and after watching them for two years it's just not as interesting as it used to be for me. It's a bit overdue for a theme change like VE / GoG did.
Other than that, UPN surrendered early in the Trail of Tiers, which received a lot of negative reactions coming from the IQ side. Whether that's justified or not is up to opinion. Some of that hate still lingers.
And at the same time make it even less likely a war would happen because that's really what we need right now...yeah, no.
I mean, the issue is that wars are already pretty costly and it deters alliances from going straight into war unless it can gain some sort of significant political advantage from winning. Making wars more costly will deter them even more and make the game a whole lot more boring unless pixel farming is your thing.
Oh damn, another Game of Thrones themed alliance.
Not that the alliance or Game of Thrones is bad but after having SK, House Stark, a micro that borrowed its flag off House Greyjoy (Ironborn), and a handful of GoT themed alliances and nations in the past you would think that it would be a little bit overused.
