Glad to see that Alex is still a Rose shill even after all these years. 😌

The ducks are back in town and they're as grumpy as ever!

I hope all the chumps who failed to follow through on their Rose bid last time have been doing some fundraising!

Times like this make me wish we had a 🥴 forum reaction.

Zygon and Revan coming in back-to-back with the first two thread posts?? Love to see Ataxia busting open the Winterfell crypts for the special occasion.

In moderation, perhaps - I'm not sure if all the old and decrepit forum nerds can handle such a sudden ramp up in forum discourse. The thrill from going cold turkey to main line IV is going to put Roberts six feet under.

You can Spotify embed here? that's huge

See: I'll sign in a heartbeat, friend - I, too, have recently fallen victim to such war crimes. I also recommend sharing the cause in the public channels of alliances full of heinous nukers, particularly Eclipse. (also, maybe join a more established alliance, lol)

Let it be known that this is totally Mega's fault - gulag!

Get a change.org petition going and then we'll talk.

Thank you for having been such a wonderful ally and community during all these years, it's been an absolute pleasure! (and sharing memes in ASM server shall, I'm sure, continue to be a pleasure 😩)

Schedule the slimming appointment for March like the good ol' days, or can we get an earlier appointment for one of your favourite customers?

you get a massive gold star for seeing higher taxes for new nations and not defaulting to "but muh independence 😭" - good luck wherever you end up!

You're all sleeping on Waifu Rush, honestly. just look at this face:

and here I thought that the Shogunate Rose theme could never be topped 😭💯💦

darkblade is on point here (and isn't even a pirate/raider, also denouncing him for disagreeing with you is just silly lol). I've never been a pirate or a raider, and definitely grew slower early on because of that. If you want to handicap yourself like I did, that's your choice to make, but that doesn't mean that more effective playstyles should be nerfed. Fortune favours the bold, as they say! Despite choosing that path, though, I didn't deal with things like people raiding me, as I was in an alliance that would support and defend me. Find an alliance that suits your values, whether that be peace/independence or otherwise - but consider an alliance that substitutes some "independence" for optimum growth, imo, a good alliance will want you to grow as effectively as possible. I will say as a former neutral that generally, in a game focused around politics & war, pixel-huggers are going to have a bad time. 😛

Rose members waking up like: also, going to retroactively consider myself Emperor.gif now Lots of exciting changes! A hearty congratulations to Solomon, as well as Diamond and Melisma on their promotions. You all deserve it so much. And a huge thank you for the countless hours that Lucianus and Mike have dedicated to Rose, it's been a genuine delight working with you both (and I look forward to continuing to work with you in the shadows 👀) Well done, Luci. It's been a wild ride and you've been an exceptional leader throughout it all.

surely now, science has gone too far

hello historical friend (+25) @Prefonteen 🐍 Cheers to us! Happy to be allied to a great group of people!

Fantastic news, congrats friends!

Cheers on retirement, Vemek - I didn't have much personal interaction with you over your tenure, but even from the outside your exceptional work was apparent.
