Popular Post Daveth Posted April 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 21, 2022 THREE YEARS ANNIVERSARY Today, 21st of April 2022, marks the celebration of the 3rd Anniversary of Carthago. It's fair to say we've been through a carrousel of events during the time since Egyptian Empire approached SPQR about a merge, which is something risky with a rare success chance - in our case it turned out to be a blessing along with our partnership with OWR, our longest standing allies. This was shortly before NPOLT began, as the first ever Global War we were involved in, a conflict where many doubted we would even survive at the start, successfully taking down Ming Empire, followed by IQ then actively working towards our disbandment alongside many others once we flipped the script and allied The Syndicate, getting blitzed for our maleficent insolence towards Brave and Beautiful BK (Superchola-X), that period is... bittersweet for many reasons. In my disgustingly humble opinion though, I'd say that's no small feat and that in our history we have consistently surpassed public expectations in several fields. A recent diplomatic example that comes to mind is the formation of the Back Room and separation alongside Nexus, concurrently to having declined the offer to join Ro$e, an event which made it clear our interests no longer coincided and ended a two year long partnership. Once you're around for long enough, you get the pleasure to witness a fair amount of things coming full circle. For instance, not that long ago Empyrea, a precursor of current day The Wei, was blitzing Egyptian Empire under El Chach. We saw our EE protectors Bad Company (RUM, Vox Populi, R&R) form and then get rolled during Ask Alexio - now we're allied with both The Wei and Bourbon Street. Two years ago, Politics and War lost what was then the only source of war statistics - we unveiled our first iteration of CTOwned jointly with our increasing ability in tech development, for which we can thank @Shamadruu, @evilpiggyfoofoo and @Krampus, giving that back to the community, something which @Borg notably also accomplished with Locutus. That being said, we intend to continue to make improvements to our website (more on that to come), some of which have already been mentioned publicly, and internally launch a new version of our bot, Hannibal, with many new exciting functionalities. Now before I bore y'all with what's become a history lesson and casual advertisement (which isn't the point) and move on to some of the events we have planned to celebrate, I'll get back on track to the message I want to convey towards diplomats, creators (coders, radio hosts, artists) and any aspiring individual within our community. Take risks! Meet people, learn new skills, create different, cool things just because - win or lose, you won't know until you try. ---- Art Competition (1st-10 of May) Each participant is required to pay a $5,000,000 entry fee, to then submit to Raven21#5083 a drawing, painting or GFX artwork of Hannibal of their own design.

Krampus Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 I had suggested to dispense with the chess tournament and just send Hidude the 100m, but apparently that wouldn't fly 😫 1 Quote Inform Zigbir I have forgotten how to edit the signature field Please remind me how to do it post haste!

Canbec Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) Congrats on 3 years, and here's to 1 more! (Let's be honest, wishing 3 more years of PnW on anyone seems a bit cruel, no?) In all seriousness though, long life to CTO! I like the idea of the various competitions to celebrate. Good luck to all participants!
