When your alliance has a very good net damage while being in the losing side of a dogpile and gets nominations for worst military by players in alliances with way lower, even negative, net damage depsite being on the winning side

Alliance of the Year:  Black Knights or Knights Templar - hard pick, honestly, between these two.  Both were active throughout the year and actually did things.  KT fought against BK, NPO, and TKR/Friends blitzes, and still performed well against that adversity - as well as made a drastic move to leave the comfort of the treaty web clusterfrick.  Black Knights actually took the initiative for once and hit KT/TKR.

Most Powerful Alliance:  Before the rolling, I would've said TKR.  Then before Partisan left, I'd have said Syndicate.  Now?  No idea.  BK I would lean on now given their sudden activity.  Maybe CoS too, if they continue on the path they've taken.

Best Military:  TKR - Despite the rolling and despite their boneheaded FA moves, they still perform well and maintain activity with the core group of TKR members.  Behind TKR, I'd say TGH or KT.

Best Rookie Alliance:  TGH?  I guess?  Are we really a rookie alliance?  Maybe United Hoods?  They were created this year and did stuff, right?  Technically CoS since they did a 180 with Ripper in charge.  Camelot maybe?  Nobody really stands out.

Best Flag:  Mensa HQ

WORST CATEGORIES

 

Worst Alliance of the Year:  TRF

Worst Military of the Year:  All the ones that got trashed hard in the wars, feel free to pick one

Worst Diplomatic Move:  TKR and Friends hitting TGH/KT - the build up to that conflict was some of the most stubborn and blindly made moves I've ever seen in this game that led to the revelation of so much dumb shit.  Queen M/Sheepy, Felkey being stupid, Lordship not giving a damn about the FA consequences for TKR, negotiations with Nizam, etc.  All of which eventually led to the culmination of how they're being treated now.  A shame, really.  I could rant on about this.

Most Inactive Large Alliance:  Pantheon

Alliance Most Likely to Fail in 2019:  TCW or Bad Company - Internal issues, some poor diplomatic mistakes, etc.  It'll build up and come crashing down unless either of them make a big turn around.

Worst Player of the Year:  Felkey

Worst Princess of the Year:  Gorge, for not having any decency and honor.

Alliance of the Year: Knights Templar. There's a night and day difference between KT under it's original founding members, and KT under the leadership fo Theodosius, and subsequently Keegoz. The substantial improvement, alongside it's actions throughout this year doesn't leave a doubt in my mind that they're the alliance of the year.

Most Powerful Alliance: Black Knights. TKR would've been up there as well, but at the time of writing, there's little doubt that, due to the ongoing war, alongside other reasons, BK (and NPO) enjoys an edge over TKR which they'll continue to hold for a period after the war as well.

Best Military: Knights Templar. Best is quite subjective. However, I consider Knights Templar to be the most capable militarily, especially when speaking relative to their size. Sufficient member count, combined with good membership activity and competence, alongside a milcom that's most likely second to none, means that they're likely to become a pivotal player in any engagement they find themselves in, and can do well above than what a simple glance at their count would otherwise suggest.

Best Rookie Alliance: N/A

Best Flag: N/A

Best War Flag: N/A

Most Active Alliance: Knights Templar.

Most Honourable Alliance: No one. Everyone's willing to throw honor under the bus for further gains.

Most Improved Alliance: Knights Templar. Theodosius and Keegoz improved Knights Templar greatly (thus gaining my main nomination), but the substantial change (for the better) which Church of Spaceology underwent with Ripper taking leadership can't go unnoticed, thus gaining a honorable mention.

Best Diplomatic Team: N/A

Best Economic System: N/A

Best Recruiting Staff: N/A

Best Propaganda Staff: Black Knights. Seriously, BK puts more effort into those than anyone else in the game.

Best Alliance Growth: N/A

Best Forums: Forums are a fragment of the mind we've lost.

Alliance Most Likely to Succeed in 2019: Black Knights. This war's outcome will likely leave BK (and NPO) in the best position out of all the combatants. As such, it's no stretch to think that they'll do the best in 2019.

Most Immoral Alliance: The Golden Horde.

Most Controversial Alliance: The Revolutionary Front. Largely due to the 69 Day War, and the OOC drama. Furthermore, not partaking in the current global in spite of still-then existing ties which either encouraged or necessitated them to join.

Best Alliance for New Players: Anyone from the top 10 should be decent enough.

Most Missed Alliance for 2018: Imperium of Man. An alliance that did far more than was expected from them, given their size and time span. Orbis needs more of their kind to replae the deadweights that currently saturate the listings.

Best Re-started/Re-branded alliance of 2018: Terminus Est. I don't think I need to elaborate on this.

WORST CATEGORIES

 

Worst Alliance of the Year: The Revolutionary Front. For their actions prior and during the 69 DW/DDR, alongside those related to the ongoing war.

Worst Military of the Year: Too many to mention. Basically, anyone who rolled over without offering any meaningful resistance, or those who were in the offensive and got absolutely trashed.

Worst Diplomatic Move: TKR and co. declaration of war on KT/TGH. I'd rather list their FA for much of this year (and probably the latter half of the past one too) as a reason for their current situation, but the nomination calls for only one.

Most Inactive Large Alliance: N/A

Alliance Most Likely to Fail in 2019: The Commonwealth. It needs much reestructuring and culture change to avoid a collapse, IMO.

Worst Player of the Year: N/A

Worst Princess of the Year: N/A.

Worst Alliance Leader of the Year: If former leaders count, Felkey. Much of tCW's current positioning can be attributed to him. Furthermore, VM'ing right before the beginning of a war, even with the reason provided, was just a very poor decision, which both resulted in ridicule externally, and set a poor example internally.

Worst Treaty of the Year: N/A

Worst Forum Poster: Re: Most hated poster.

Worst Nation Setup: Madden. Sorry Madden, but your setup doesn't make sense.

Worst Fighters of the Year (must have fought in 2018 ) : Repeat of Worst Military of the Year.

Alliance Most Likely to get Rolled in 2019: Anyone who hesitates to partake in a war in general, TFP in particular.

Alliance of the Year: Black Knights - BK absorbed two major alliances (Zodiac and Cornerstone), played pivotal roles in both the Ayyslamic Crusade and Knightfall, and became the most powerful alliance (see below).

Most Powerful Alliance: Black Knights - NPO was a close second, but BK's more diverse set of treaties (including a promising protectorate in Camelot), along with TKR's fall from grace and The Syndicate's relatively fluid position, gave BK an edge in my book.

Best Military: Black Knights - Other alliances arguably have better fighters on average, but no alliance has been more consequential or indispensable to its respective coalitions, especially among alliances that recruit and train new players.

Best Rookie Alliance: The Golden Horde - It says rookie alliance, not rookie players. TGH has been by far the most consequential alliance founded in 2018.

Best Flag:

Best War Flag:

Most Active Alliance: Black Knights

Most Honourable Alliance: Orange Defense Network - ODN unilaterally continued a losing, defensive war against TGH and KT just to make a point, and it did so without complaint or fanfare.

Most Improved Alliance:

Best Diplomatic Team:

Best Economic System: New Pacific Order - Maximal tax revenues and efficient resource allocation make NPO uniquely capable of developing new nations, building tier cohesion, and safely financing its growth with loans.

Best Recruiting Staff: New Pacific Order

Best Propaganda Staff: Black Knights

Best Alliance Growth: New Pacific Order - GDP grows faster when your citizens aren't allowed luxury goods or bathroom breaks.

Best Forums: New Pacific Order - Sleeker and more active than any other alliance's forums by far.

Alliance Most Likely to Succeed in 2019: New Pacific Order - Steady growth in membership and score; experienced, stable leadership; and a solid group of allies make NPO a safe bet for this category. Whether or not another alliance will outshine it is another question, but it would take a series of blunders on NPO's part for it to fall very far from its current position.

Most Immoral Alliance:

Most Controversial Alliance:

Best Alliance for New Players: New Pacific Order

Most Missed Alliance for 2018: Mensa HQ - No one did arrogant, self-aggrandizing shitposts quite like Mensa.

Best Re-started/Re-branded alliance of 2018: Terminus Est - The archetypical paperless alliance and vehicle for Prefontaine's shenanigans.

 

PLAYER CATEGORIES

 

Player of the Year: Leo the Great/The Mad Titan/Thanos - Led BK to alliance of the year (see above). Changed his name twice with as little ridicule as could be expected.

Most Powerful Player: Roquentin - NPO is roughly as powerful as BK, but NPO's larger size and unique economic system make Roquentin the most powerful player.

Best Alliance Leader: Leo the Great/The Mad Titan/Thanos - Led BK through two mergers and the two most successful wars it's waged since the formation of The Inquisition.

Most Controversial Player: Sweet Ronny D - As an advocate for the interests and intrinsic superiority of the whale tier, SRD is unrivaled in his narcissism and contempt for small nations.

Most Dynamic Player: Ripper - His leadership has made the Church of Spaceology more than a de facto neutral alliance for the first time I can remember.

Best Player Sig:

Best Player Avatar: Smith - Although I nominated TheNG for Funniest Player, Smith deserves recognition for hijacking TheNG's avatar and turning it into a meme.

Best OOC Poster:

Best IC Poster: Roquentin - He's more willing to deliver lengthy, substantive arguments on the forums than anyone else.

Nicest Player:

Funniest Player: TheNG - The original pigeon. Often imitated, never duplicated.

Most Active Player: Roquentin - I'm not sure he sleeps.

Player Most Likely to Achieve Greatness in 2019: Seeker - Guardians of the Galaxy has flown under the radar thanks to its spot in the shadows of BK and NPO. It is well within Seeker's power to lead his alliance to a more prominent position in The Inquisition's sphere.

Best New Addition to the Community:

 

COMMUNITY CATEGORIES

 

Best Wall of Text: (provide a link)

Best P&W Forum Topic: Global War Peace Terms Discussion - Best substantive discussion of gameplay this year.

Biggest Controversy:

Funniest Event: Extensive vacation mode usage immediately before and after Knightfall began

Most Entertaining Discord Channel: #great_job_chat in ORB Weekly - The show and its Discord channel are at times silly, but never dull.

Best Treaty Announcement: (provide a link)

Best Declaration of War: (provide a link)

Biggest Meme: Cultural Victory - Credit where credit is due. Ask Alexio didn't have nearly the lifespan of this one.

Largest E-Peen:

Best Villain: New Pacific Order - The enemy of dynamism, the root of all that is wrong with nation-sim games in general, and the destroyer of all that is good in PW in particular.

Most Hated Poster: Inst - Derailing multiple threads simultaneously takes perseverance and high activity. Inst is the hero we need.

Most Missed Player (Player that has gone inactive/quit): Partisan - He was almost synonymous with both The Syndicate and walls of text during his tenures as the leader of t$.

 

WORST CATEGORIES

 

Worst Alliance of the Year: The Fighting Pacifists - TFP underperformed in the Ayyslamic Crusade and managed to both ruin its public image and paint a target on its back by staying out of Knightfall.

Worst Military of the Year: The Commonwealth - Despite its strategic use of vacation mode and its clear, totally-not-disputed departure from its GPA origins, TCW still managed to redefine the limits of negative net damage.

Worst Diplomatic Move: Bad Company leaking Vanguard/IQ info as it departed Vanguard - BC got rolled hard and fast for that one.

Most Inactive Large Alliance: The Fighting Pacifists - They don't seem to do anything besides fighting in Guardian's and Rose's wars, and apparently they don't even do that anymore.

Alliance Most Likely to Fail in 2019: The Fighting Pacifists - The only thing worse than sustaining huge amounts of damage in a lopsided war is avoiding the war altogether while worsening the public image problems that precipitated it. TFP enters 2019 with few allies and little of its former reputation (deserved or not) for military competence.

Worst Player of the Year:

Worst Princess of the Year: Kastor - Kastor was never able to bring the same charisma and decorum to the office that Gorge has.

Worst Alliance Leader of the Year: TheNG - Why he asks for this every year is beyond me, but since I attribute the failings of other alliances to multiple people or their alliance cultures, I guess he can have this one again.

Worst Treaty of the Year: (provide a link)

Worst Forum Poster:

Worst Nation Setup:

Worst Fighters of the Year: The Commonwealth - TCW's coalition entered Knightfall with strength parity in the upper tiers. Apparently nothing makes an alliance rediscover its GPA roots faster than an even fight.

Alliance Most Likely to get Rolled in 2019: The Fighting Pacifists - All of the bad PR from being associated with Radiantsphere, none of the credit for fighting in Knightfall.

 

Lastly, everyone who nominated NPO for Best Economic System is hereby an honorary communist.
