Cybernations

Oh, goodie. Just in time for me heading offline for 3 weeks, in 2 weeks time... :-/

Darkdragon · April 24, 2009, 04:24:41 AM

Wouldn't three weeks of inactivity delete your account?

----------

Anyways, what's the update status on the war? From what I've glanced over a flurry of DoWs has occurred, including most of Poseidon et alli. Being a microalliance, the chances of us being attacked are slim, but its best to prepare for the worst, right?

Correct. Hence why I intend to be a tiny bit active. Just enough to avoid the heat-death of the universe. ;-]

Tezkat · May 02, 2009, 03:20:57 PM

Hmm... did we miss the war?

Most of Poseidon/Pegasus has already peaced out of their conflicts.

I didn't see any military coordination stuff at all on the Pegasus forums...

they knew not to mess with us because you have the irish on your side and when you have an army of violent drunks, that are supernaturally lucky, on your side people tend to steer clear.

It would appear that we have dodged the bullet. Fewer days of economy-choking radiation to fret over, I suppose.

Darkdragon · May 03, 2009, 09:22:02 PM

And due to the war, Tezkat's managed to move into the top 5%, albeit barely.

lucas marcone · May 06, 2009, 03:31:41 PM

did we loose someone? i could swear there was someone just above me in the alliance but now they seem to be gone...just when i was getting ready to pass them too

Tezkat · May 14, 2009, 07:37:09 AM

Well... the war is pretty much over. Our side lost. As of last night, the Continuum no longer exists. With Valhalla's recent surrender, Purple no longer has any ties to the fighting.

Purple took major huge hit in this conflict. Valhalla is a shadow of its former strength. The other Poseidon alliances lost about a million NS each. Our Pegasus buddies BAPS and Olympus lost nearly half their net worth in the war.

So... we're now coordinating the rebuilding effort. Is anyone here willing/able to help with rebuilding aids? If so, how many $3 mil slots could you donate to the cause?

Darkdragon · May 14, 2009, 07:46:09 PM

With the war over, we could go dip into the warchest a little, right? I'm almost reaching the funds for my first wonder (I'm probably going with the Stock Market) then after that I could probably spare several three million slots (depending on how low into the warchest I want to dip).

Tezkat · May 15, 2009, 10:34:23 AM

Yeah. Warchests are as much for rebuilding as they are for fighting. It's unlikely that we'll see any conflicts on this scale for a while.

Just remember that you should be thinking about replenishing the kitty later on...

Darkdragon · May 16, 2009, 01:40:59 AM

In that case, I should be able to spare 15 million (3 x 5), but then that dips into my warchest more than I really could afford.

Just remember which alliances we are allowed to aid as per terms of their surrender. I'm not too certain, but I think most surrender terms have clauses about receiving aid so it would be best if you ask if we can aid first.

insidexml · May 16, 2009, 01:36:00 PM

It's like the entire world is at war. I'm not even part of your alliance, and yet somehow I'm at war.

Which I'm winning, luckily enough.

As far as I've been able to gather, it seems that Cybernations has pretty much an annual World War.

Valynth · May 17, 2009, 02:36:56 AM

I wonder if the world dies if we get it to 1000 RADs.... Or we suddenly become ghoul colonies.

Well, otherwise, you just have nation states with flashy numbers. And that gets boring really fast.... Even if you're an accountant.

In that case I should be an accountant. I can stay up all night pushing numbers in Excel charts to derive statistics which I find "useful". And not get bored.

Which is probably why I invest in troops in Galava despite probably not needing to. >.>

I wonder where Tezkat's gone, because I have no idea who I can send aid to, mainly because I can't ask the alliances because he (and llearch, who is on vacation) are the only ones which have forum masks on the forums where this information can be obtained. >.>

Actually, my friend's wife has a nation in some alliance of ultraconservatives that my friend has described as regularly attacking anyone they can. She doesn't actively participate in the wars, but she contributes by making her entire alliance's military infrastructure economically dependent upon her funding.

insidexml · May 18, 2009, 06:44:28 PM

It really sucks for me, since I've not got anybody in my alliance I can really turn to for help.

Mostly because it's just me in there. Aaand... one other inactive nation.

llearch n'n'daCorna · May 18, 2009, 07:09:12 PM

... you could always join our inactive alliance... ;-]

Yeah... sorry, I was a con all weekend and didn't really have time to keep up with forum stuff.

I haven't heard back from the other Pegasus peeps yet, though.

Darkdragon · May 19, 2009, 04:13:21 AM

Hmm... I hope you enjoyed the con, at the very least.

Perhaps they didn't see your first message, or didn't check the Pegasus forums due to internal turmoil. Have you tried knocking at the alliances' doors (read: forums)?

Tezkat · May 19, 2009, 04:30:10 AM

Yeah, the con was fun. Being geek-oriented, though, a lot of the stuff ran late into the night, so I'm a bit sleep deprived...

I actually don't have any accounts on our neighbours' forums. I'd kinda left that to our resident Doormat. Maybe I'll pop on IRC sometime and ask there.

If they want our monies, I'm sure they'll let us know eventually.

Darkdragon · May 19, 2009, 04:48:09 AM

Our resident doormat has been spotted recently, perhaps he could be tracked down to pursue this issue?

I'm not too certain about them remembering, after all, we are pretty small in number compared to them and won't probably be remembered until some guy remembers about us and then contact us. It would leave a better impression if we went to them, especially since we know they could use a hand.

llearch n'n'daCorna · May 19, 2009, 08:32:58 AM

Our Resident Doormat is looking to see if he's been lynched while his back was turned. Nothing more, nothing less.

I certainly don't want to log into fifteen different forums from a webcafe... It's hard enough getting into this one...

Darkdragon · May 19, 2009, 11:45:48 AM

True. I understand.

o/ Resident Doormat.

Subject: teaser

Message: ya know i could attack you and there's nothing anyone in your alliance could do about it.

this scares me because with my trade situation as it is he probably could as im making juuuuuuuuuust enough to keep my head above water.

Mao · May 21, 2009, 10:37:53 PM

Actually, he's pretty destroyable. It's if his alliance wants to back him up on a random attack like that. If not... he wouldn't be all that hard to pulp.
