I thought it would be a fun blast from the past to show people. I meant to include info on our old flag too, but I forgot when actually typing it up. Would you believe that TKR was initially yellow? I think orange suits us much better.

10 years ago today, The Knights Radiant was formed. We started with around 16 members as a protectorate of The Syndicate. The world then looked very different: It’s been an eventful 10 years. Approximately 1500 people have been a part of our alliance throughout the years, including those who are still a member now. We’ve had around 129 total people in gov, including seven leaders. We’ve seen the game shift from IRC and forums to Discord and moved ourselves from IRC to Slack and most recently Discord. We had a long stretch as the number one alliance. We’ve been through nearly all the major ups and downs of the game and continued through as a strong community. Arguably most important of all, we’ve converted countless people into Sanderson fans.... A special thank you to all our allies over the years for your friendship and for your support. We’ve been very lucky to have had some wonderful allies throughout the years and made some great friends. Though our in-game relationships may have changed throughout the years, so many of you have been steadfast OOC friends to us as well, and it’s been wonderful to get to know you. Most of all though, I want to thank our gov and our members, past and present. So many people have been a part of TKR’s history and have helped make the alliance what it is today. The result has been the creation of an incredible and tight-knit community. I’ve never ceased to be impressed by this alliance and its resilience, fortitude, and sense of camaraderie. I couldn’t be more proud to be a part of it, let alone lead it. Keep being amazing, Radiants! Here’s to 10 years!

Oh, and how could I forget the offering for Odie?! Here you go, bud

Yay! Glad to see this up and I look forward to continuing to work alongside you guys <3

@Miller actually used a gif from that very video in our rebuild announcement :3

It’s been an eventful last two months full of drama, intrigue, and memes, but all good things must come to an end. The House, their allies, and Singularity have come to an agreement on peace: Singularity officially surrenders to The House and their allies, and admits defeat The name of this war shall be “A Barrel of Monkeys”, so that future wars may subsequently be deemed “more fun than ‘A Barrel of Monkeys’”. Any and all wartime changes in regards to color blocs must be reversed to pre-war status. This applies to both coalitions and protectorates for the duration of the NAP. Peace is effective immediately upon this post. Any wars declared prior to this post may be finished by beige, expiration, or peace. Any wars declared after this post must be peaced out. There will be a four month non-aggression pact (NAP) following this war, ending at the August 13-14 update. The NAP is to be defined as follows: No wars No raids No mass ghosting No shell alliance hits No spy attacks No hiring of mercenaries/raiders to hit the parties signed If there is to be found documented and proven aggression by any signatories, the parties involved should immediately pursue diplomacy to resolve the dispute by way of peace, financial reparations, and/or counters. Signatories may defend direct allies against other signatories without breaching the NAP. Signatories:

You haven't checked his nation, I see. He has less than a week left, he can't speed it up.

What do you mean we refused? We haven't even been asked, as far as I know lol.

Tbf, most of the bellyaching was overblown by that meme. We didn't appreciate it but we took it fairly well in stride; I just got slightly annoyed at a certain someone for suggesting it was earned and that exploded 😅

You people are weird.

He only entered VM like a week and a half ago, towards the end of the Rose war. He fought in the war lol

With the joke, smh. Get there with the joke. Good lord. This is why we can't talk to one another.

I mean, don't get me wrong, if you had wanted to agree to it, we'd have considered it, but it was also a joke. You can't tell me you honestly believe we thought you were likely to go for it regardless though. If you don't get what the joke was, keep thinking on it. You'll get there eventually. I look forward to when you do.
