For as long as I'm around, I don't think there will be one. We can always introduce a cult though. ;)

You could always have a Mao-esque personality cult. That would fit with the theme of the PRL too. :p

I second both of these statements.

Nice cat and mouse tactics there, although it got a bit predictable by the end. Still, it was good fun and we managed to stop you in a few places. :)

Wait, if defenders actually defend and not run to mods or admins, they have a chance to stop us?? Wow, this is game changing news, everyone!!!

Could I ask for clarification on the seemingly contradictory statements by Gest (viewtopic.php?p=18338172#p18338172) and Feuer Ritter (viewtopic.php?p=18338444#p18338444)?

Hardly a region that interests me, but I find myself more and more taking notice of the operations and structure of foreign military organizations that I would have ignored in the past as a result of my defending. And frankly, TBR's command structure has always been a wonderful hidden world of intrigue and confusing dysfunctionality.

Your thoughtless criticism have no place here, You base your statement of Dysunctionnality on 1 example? Really? And what example? Gest is kind enough to tell the poor man that TBR aren't responsible for their hardship, while Feuer tell them to get over it and stop crying, no where did he say that TBR were responsible of it. No contradiction, just 2 complimentary comments that go very well in TBR line of thoughts.
As a bonus note, Our command structure has always been the very finest of this game, never has there been any drama or plot in the high command, every one is on the same page.

I'm here to announce some changes in the The Black Riders command structure that followed my recent temporary retirement from the greatest region in NationStates and NS Gameplay Affairs, because of my real life priorities.
With my departure I appointed Marshal Kknight as Chief of the General Staff, the 4th CGS of The Black Riders. And beside this Major Suchasmallthing (Better known as Bob Moran) is promoted to the rank of Colonel.

The 6 stars are yours Kknight, use them wisely.

Shhh, let's keep all my ties with defenders secrets, ok!??? More seriously, Each one of us has to climb alone every little step one by one. Titles wouldn't mean anything if they were that easy to get.
