Popular Post Altheus Posted February 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) Fashionably late UPN recently had it’s 15-birthday party, which makes it as old as iPhones, hashtags and my two daughters. 15 years of wars, words, Barney the dinosaur, Kevin the squid, ribenaberries and a helluva lot of Purple Loving. Hopefully along the way we’ve had enough misdemeanors, crises and maybe even some fluffy, good times to entertain both ourselves, our enemies and frenemies and have contributed to making online text-based political simulators a more interesting and definitely more Purple place. What is Purple? Who knows. A warm, fuzzy feeling inside brought upon by drinking too much wine? A collection of internet warriors with ultra violet tendencies? A family of the weird and bizarre who are Purple, because…Purple? Either way Purple is what Purple does and I’ve dedicated my 15 years of tapping away at online political simulators to try and achieve Apex Purple, whatever that might be. By dedicated I mean taking the credit year after year in which far more talented people than myself have actually run UPN, whilst I’ve sat back and enjoyed varying states of inactivity. At this point, and over three different games, naming every single person who has made UPN what it is would be madness, so thank you to everyone that has and here is a roll of honour to everyone who has officially headlined UPN over the years.
