Comrade Milton posted:So, in horrifying news, Kevin, the admin, is paying a professional mobile app developer so that CN can come haunt you wherever you are. You will be able to login to a simple form and adjust several values in a spreadsheet from your phone. Seriously, if he really wanted to keep this game alive, he should have made it a phone app, made a facebook version, whatever the gently caress he had to do to make it more accessible. Way too late now. Hajj Podge posted:The picture of himself he posted to the NPO boards and elsewhere was actually the picture of a gay porn star. He also embezzled money from student organizations and of course from Cybernations players. And of course the best part, for several months after Moo actually died NPO's top leadership would post on the OWF with intentional misspellings to give off the appearance Moo had actually been in a motorcycle accident and was recovering. Truth was, he had been in a motorcycle accident twenty years before and had died in the dentist's chair a few months before.

JT Jag posted:poo poo he should have done five years ago.txt Kevin is absolute poo poo at marketing. Vorenus posted:Seriously you cannot post poo poo like this and not give every last detail. I'll have to see what I still have saved, but more or less Moo-Cows was in a motorcycle accident with a truck during the mid 1980s, in the early 90s he changed his name to "sarah" if I remember correctly, in the late 90s and early 2000s he headed a student organization at a local college and began embezzling money. After he was caught he was given probation and barred from joining anymore student organizations. He joined another and began during the same thing sometime around 04/05, and joined CN in 06. Once he was emperor of NPO, he would hold donation drives for hosting/domain costs and take the majority of the funds for himself, sometime in 09 or '10 he decided to tell his motorcycle accident story to NPO and used it to launch and even bigger donation drive, taking all of that money. Yes, he also used a cropped picture from a gay porn as "him" and had a folder full of cropped pictures of the same actor to keep up the illusion. In late 2011 he went to the dentist and ended up dead, some of the crazier CN players who knew suspected foul play, but I think it ended up just being from an air bubble from the dental tools causing a blockage. NPO found all of this out and decided to keep it hush hush for as long as possible to "save the memory" of moo cows or whatever, then preceded to tell everyone the motorcycle story that he told them. With certain members pretending to be moo cows. Finally in July of 2012 they said he passed away due to complications of his accident. He also routinely told people he had cancer in order to get donations, as I remember him telling me multiple times back in like '07 that he "had a rare cancer and was struggling to pay bills  (" or whatever.Astryl fucked around with this message at 11:17 on Aug 13, 2014 |

Moo was a lovely person, and I wish that I had known about it earlier. I did a bunch of research into him after his death because parts of his story always hadn't added up, but I'd assumed it was just the usual internet embellishment. Nope. mid-60s corrupt tranny.

I did a bunch of research into him after his death because parts of his story always hadn't added up, but I'd assumed it was just the usual internet embellishment. Rumor is that the Moldavi Rebellion where Sponge supported Ivan in trying to depose Moo was because of a Moo being a con artist. Sponge or Ivan would have to weigh in, but I wouldn't discount it. Sponge had always said he didn't trust Moo and thought Moo was a piece of poo poo(sic?). Even in a Cybernations context, Moo was a very shady and untrustworthy character and is reason enough for wanting the guy out of a position where he could have and did do the most harm.

Nope. Sponge would have talked to me had he known at the time, and I would have ended up backing Moldavi, which would have tipped the balance. All I ended up doing was confirming that Moo had stepped down, and then took a break from the game to focus on school.

So, either he's eating catfood for a browser-based spreadsheet game (and doing so poorly--watch how long it takes him to get the spoon into his mouth) OR he's an abusive, autistic monster who fucks with his impaired younger brother to do the same. He's literally the living embodiment of an IRL NPO flag.

I've had to take both a steep income penalty on top if a 5% population drop coupled with damage to the environment, which dropped pop even more. The events are real bastards.

My nation is 7 days old and I've been mostly just collecting taxes and buying infrastructure. Valratha from TheUnderDark just attacked me took a bunch of stuff. He seems to be stronger than me, should I lick my wounds and move on? Is there a good guide anywhere on how to deal with this stuff?

Speaking of making poor time-management decisions, I made a really terrible choice and coded my own spreadsheet wargame. It's got all the bells and whistles - flags, alliances, technologies, city management, loot, and combat. Posting this might be a bit gauche, but you guys seem well-versed in the genre, and I'd really appreciate some eyeballs and opinions. Let Thrones Beware
