You foolish mortals will not be so cocky once I kidnap your graphics team and lock them in my basement.

Are you sure you want me in your basement?

You plan to deplete the alcohol supplies I take it?

Dunno about alcohol, but you can expect me to deplete your Bandwidth.

[Cerian Quilor]

haven't seen your AIPAC membership card yet, Mahaj.

And can you, Unibot, please clarify what you meant by 'devil-tongued shit-disturbers'?

[Unibot III]

And can you, Unibot, please clarify what you meant by 'devil-tongued shit-disturbers'?

Well, "devil-tongued" would mean something similar to "silver-tongued devil", thus: the ability to express malicious concepts eloquently. For example, Onder's justification for doing just about anything he wants on the basis of sovereignty.

Shit-disturbers is more obvious. I'd imagine that would be a cross-breed between an opportunist and a mischievous imp.

Hope that clarifies things.

At last you've finally clarified, after over half a year.

A Letter from the Capitalis de Societate of The United Defenders League,

<OrangeRock> Is Unibot III on?
<Carta> No, only Unibot is here.

*sniggers*. Thanks for the introduction, Carta. It has been a relatively quiet week on the battlefield for The United Defenders League, so a lot of our work this week has been administrative activities (sekrits), which I cannot fully disclose – honestly it’s been pretty busy, I have already enjoyed a nice 1 – 6 PM power-nap (bot re-generation). Although we did liberate CrazyKids and additionally, United Kingdom of Britain and Ireland against the Brotherhood of Malice. Participants of the latter liberation received this colorful little military ribbon:

Some major victories on the battlefield were also secured against The Black Riders and The Brotherhood of Malice, which are mentioned in The Sherwood Post’s articles, The Black Riders Ridden Out of Town and It's Been A Hard Day's Night! The Sherwood What?? Yes, that’s right, we have replaced the old Office of the Press Secretary with The Sherwood Post so that no one person will ever again have to face the collective fury of the angry editorials. NO MORE PLEASE! Another good article while we’re on the subject was a speech released recently by Lieutenants, Earth and Sovreignry entitled The Servants of Good which, I know, got us all motivated for the coming month.

Also noteworthy from those articles is the intercepted refound of Ether which ended a fifty-two day occupation for The Black Riders in failure; cue the partisan raider response regarding how the actual end goal was to lose the refound. MIND BLOWN. Lieutenant Earth caught the refound (and cheered quite loudly). We’re still in the process of handing off the region to the existing natives, all in good time.

<Johz> "<Bel> Midas s***s gold, Uni s***'s WA's " <-- This is true. The key issue is cleaning them up and explaining to them how they ended up in Uni's gut in the first place.

Hehe, we’re happy to be able to say that my gut is the golden goose that keeps giving. North Wiedna has returned to the Greenwood Band! But other members who have joined this week include United Federation of Canada, Pretty Awesome Persons, Nouvelle Navarre, Levivania, The Inevitable Syndicate, The Northeast, Ceannairceach, Hemenster and New Andureo! Welcome to The United Defenders League, gentlemen, I know you’ll do excellent. *salutes*

Out of that list, The Inevitable Syndicate snagged a Monthly Award, but Arcomo got the coveted Newcomer Award. Also Hileville received the Best Liberator of the Month Award, which is his first award with us I believe, so congratulations to him as well! You can see a list of the rest of the Monthly Award Winners here. However, Milograd has approached our members about a possible new Monthly Award entitled the “Milo of the Month Award" to “be presented to whoever did the best job at being Milo over the course of a month”. Administrative deliberations are still in progress for said award but I suspect it’ll get put in a backlog behind the “Ravania and Johz of the Month Award” for most adorable dynamic duo.

Lieutenant Earth received the Chief’s Award for putting a lot of work into a rather extensive overhaul of our counter-intelligence systems. Absolutely no one on the staff –at all– is envious of Lieutenant Earth for having the opportunity to do this. Earth makes the …world …. go around!

* Herrebrugh has joined #udl
<@Unibot> Hi!
<@Unibot>
<Herrebrugh> Bonjour
<+Riemstagrad> dag herrebrugh, hoe gaat het ermee?
<Herrebrugh> Goed hoor, met jou? ;P
<@Unibot> Do you two ….know each other?

Apparently they did know each other, actually. Ah diplomacy – what strange people and foreign tongues you bring to our humble IRC channel. Our diplomatic core has been hard at work, pursuing our foreign affairs agenda. If you haven’t heard yet, Drakkengard, a respected and just absolutely lovely member of The East Pacific, has taken on the position of Vice Chief of Feeder and Sinker Affairs and has been full of bright ideas – Chief Hilleville and I welcome him to the team. I couldn’t ask for a more experienced and respected diplomatic presence in the feeder communities. Meanwhile, Chief Bazlantis organized the first cabinet meeting between his foreign affairs attachés last week before sending them on their merry way to scour NationStates.

On a few final notes, Movie Night is going to occur Saturday, February 9 at 7:30 PM EST, next week on our military IRC channel (#udl). I have absolutely no idea what the movie will be, but I don’t think we ever got to watch “Hook”, so maybe we’ll watch that. Moreover, Lieutenant Ravania has been sick with the flu and we wish our Busy little Beaver well.

Alrighty, thanks for reading; here’s your Moment of Zen:

<Solm> Unibot is just a figure head nowadays
<Asta> Nah, Elu is chief.
<Solm> Ravania runs everything behind the scenes
<Earth> why the f*** would Unibot be the public face?
<Earth> like honest to god

The two endorsements's that made the difference:

33 minutes ago: The Derrak Quadrant was endorsed by The Zombies of Land filled with People.

The Carrion King put on its Kantrias Flag for a seperate occupation elsewhere.

That op was not a Kantrian one.

Yay for defending Asia and huzzah for the new update.

Thanks for your kind words, Unibot.

[Unibot III]

To the OP, I've added our NEWEST LIEUTENANT, JOHZ!

I also got around to making a nameplate for Drakkengard (Vice Chief of Feeder and Sinker Affairs) and the awesome Foreign Affairs team.

[Cormac Stark]

Congrats to Johz!

[Johz]

I'd like to just say thanks to Uni and everyone else who thought I was Lt. material. And, of course, like the victim of any promotion, I've brought food to share. These things are called party rings, feel free to take a handful and realise what abysmal lives you've been living without them.

Congrats to Johz!

Thanks, Cormac. *offers party rings*

Noooo, I thought I was going to corrupt you back into Raiderdom. Nooooo.

Congrats.

[Severisen]

Don't, worry Hungry. Lt. is the rank where we steal them with the Super Secret Friend Squad.^TM

[PrussianEmpire]

To whom this may concern,
This letter comes after much thought. I have decided to resign. I feel that I have nothing to offer the UDL.

NS just got one gameplayer smarter. Good job, bud.

[Kogvuron]

The attitude of the higher ranking members is quite pathetic, when they cannot answer a simple question within 30 minutes, and are too lazy to even say "bye" when someone says they're leaving.

Not a UDL member but to this point, sometimes, people aren't online or are idling doing other stuff. RL > NS. Doing homework > Chatting on IRC. Just a general rule for all of NS, not the UDL in particular.

Aww, man, remind me the last time you did something other than snipe at the UDL?

[Unibot III]

Awww, Prussia. I don't think that's true, but good luck on your endeavors in NationStates.

[Lyanna Stark]

Johz is definitely going to make an amazing Lieutenant. He's been with us for so long and has worked incredibly hard during minor update with Ravania. They're an incredible raider-stopping team the the UDL is lucky to have. Johz is level-headed, practical, but also a shitton of fun to have on IRC and great to talk to. Happy to see Johz joining the command table. Seriously, he completely deserves it.

Johz, you're fucking awesome, buddy. ^^

Good luck in your future endeavors, Prussia.
