  1. I'm currently at war with this nation. He had saved up 12 MAPs and did ground attacks. However, he did 5 attacks, whereas the maximum amount of attacks is 4. Here are the attacks on my notification screen: Further, the War Timeline reflects that something odd was going on: -3 maps lol. Anyway, ideally I would like the last attack on me to be negated as it should not have counted. Thank you for looking into this
  2. Earlier today I received a trade deal from a random nation. The notification was: 07/11 10:14 pm of sent your nation a trade offer. wants to buy 1 food in exchange for $0 each, or a total of $0. As you can see, there was neither a ruler nor nation name in the notification. My guess the player deleted their nation shortly after sending me the trade. However, the issue I'm facing is that the trade deal is showing as pending on the side menu like this: ...and on my nation page here: However, when I click it, I see no trade deal pending: ... As you can see, there is literally nothing showing here. So I'm not able to cancel this trade despite the game insisting I have a trade. It's not affecting my game play, but it is kinda annoying to look at. Just wondering if this trade can be cancelled by Alex or another admin. Thanks for looking into this!
  3. To celebrate this milestone, I'll fulfill my dream of going to the Grand Canyon 😌
  4. If only Rose can find another alliance to ally with, one that has historically used the color green as part of its motif. tbh I'm coming up blank 🤷‍♂️
  5. Good war everyone! Yay peace! Yay to a buyer's market!
  6. That @Kurdanak guy is really something, huh? Who knew a mantis shrimp can be a meanie? Oh well, at least his taste in flags is impeccable 👌
  7. How dare you?!?!?!?! There is no hope for anyone. We are all doom if you cannot recognize the majesty of The Immortals Holiday Flag 😭

  9. Thank you for that, @Kurdanak. Last year was a truly horrid year, one where the failures of society writ large were evident for all to see. No, I am not referring to the ongoing pandemic outside of Orbis or January 6th. Instead, I am referring to the gross injustice - a cataclysm, really - of this community’s failure to award the Best Holiday Flag award to The Immortals Holiday Flag. I had a dream (or was it a premonition?). I gazed the Louvre. I. M. Pei’s famed pyramid was shattered, with a dreary pall blanketing the sky overhead. In the distance, gun fire echoed through the streets of a city in the throes of death. The “City of Lights” was anything but. I enter. The halls are empty. Where the art of Delacroix and Rembrandt was stood, there was nothing but a sickening void. The Mughal art of Akbar was gone. The Winged Victory of Samothrace was shattered and profaned, an image I tremble to write out in more detail to save you from my terror. Titian’s art was missing, replaced by a graffito in an unknown script. I could not read it, but I sensed it was taunting in tone. With apprehension and dread, I entered the hall to see da Vinci’s Mona Lisa. Where once throngs of people waited to take their selfies with “La Gioconda,” there was silence. The security guard’s stool stood empty as I rounded the corner. “Was it there?,” I thought. My heart was racing as I closed my eyes, not daring to look. Every footstep I took echoed through the hall like a thunderclap, matching, step by step, the chasm rending open my heart. Did Napoleon feel such dread when he knew Waterloo was lost? Whatever he felt was one one-thousandth of what I felt in that moment. When I opened my eyes, I did not see that mirthful smile, that bemused look from da Vinci’s subject. But instead of an unspeakable profanity that would have broken my spirit, I saw its antithesis. Not darkness, but light. I thought that whatever malevolence made its way through this hallowed museum was just that, a force of indescribable evil and villainy. I was wrong. When Saul made his way to Damascus, a sudden light paralyzed him, changing his heart and the world with him. Saul died, but Paul brought the good news to the far corners of civilization. But what greeted me was not malevolent, but something of sublime beauty. Then I realized that the destruction of the West’s patrimony was not a senseless destruction, but a rational decision. After all, what I saw made any preceding art superfluous. An apocryphal telling recounts the burning of the Library of Alexandria. When the kalifa Umar ibn al-Khattab entered into Alexandria, he was asked about what to do with the famed library. He is said to have remarked: Looking at what replaced the Mona Lisa, I knew that, whatever had destroyed the Louvre, was right to do so. Because when you gaze upon it, you realize this is it, that nothing can surpass the beauty and divinity of The Immortal Holiday Flag. I then woke up. And I smiled. The future was bright indeed. Open your hearts! The Immortals Holiday Flag is clearly the best holiday flag, the best anything. Whether Philistines had taken over last year's vote or the good and virtuous among you had been held captive, there is no excuse not to vote for this banner of light, love, and humanity. Submit to The Immortals Holiday Flag! Obey The Immortals Holiday Flag! VOTE FOR THE IMMORTALS HOLIDAY FLAG!!!
  10. Welcome! With the Immortal's unrivaled talent for visual arts (as typified by their magnificent and sublime holiday flag), the future is bright for Hollywood Productions 😎
