It was fun playing with/against you guys! Best of luck to you all.

Thanks for your service Pangui! You've been great. Wasn't an easy job in this climate, and I think I can speak on behalf of UPN (current & old members) in saying that you showed great dedication to UPN. While it is sad, it is nice to see that the government is made up of guys who have also showed immense dedication. Looking forward to seeing Matt take over - well deserved, and probably somewhat overdue. Congrats! o/ UPN

You're a !@#$ retard. Steve doesn't make sense on most occasions, but this is one of the rare occasions he is.

Mensa won everything.

The point is that some awards were actually achieved -- in an objective sense. For example UPN finished as the #1 alliance in both rounds and so on. It would be cool if we had more badges for this round like "longest running alliance at #1" or "alliances with the most kills" or whatever else, that reflect objective measurables. I don't have an issue with the cosmetic changes in principle, for something like "best military alliance of the year" and it ending up at Mensa (which is most likely true), but can see the logic behind the criticism of it being a popularity contest. Especially with newer players/recruits, who may not be aware that it was purely voted on by people on the forums. tl;dr: My take is that awards should be based on objective measurables, not subjective opinions.

Congrats guys! Acadia are the best allies you could wish for.

It was a good read.

I noticed there is a #spam channel on Discord. Greatkitteh should definetly mod it incase someone posts some non-spam there.

How much for your bank?

When's your 14th birthday?

Congrats Bezzers and best of luck.

Did not see this coming. Good luck!

And then they fail to return the goods. Then the "One Unit of Food War" commences.
