This comes as a result of some ridiculous hauls recently. The strike started with JDS's bankers in after the dozenth time he stole 200mil+ from Keiver. However, it rapidly moved to all divisions of the banking union as other nations started bringing in big hauls. Today for instance, the rather obscure nation lead by Knightflame took in a total of 723mil points from multiple targets. The sum of points these bankers are expected to count up is staggering in some places, while in other places bankers have to spend an equal amount of time estimating losses. A comination of having to work long hours, not seeing their families, and poor personal hygene, has pushed the bankers to where they can't take it anymore. As such, the Very Big Bankers Union is on strike and none of the nations can access the funds in their banks. The government of Ailestan, usually considered a dictatorship run by nutty towel-heads, has been chosen as a nuetral party to negotiate a settlement with the bankers union. The union demands shorter hours, an increase in number of workers, and more pay. The Ailestani government demands that the whiny ingrates get back to work. Negotiations broke apart today, but will re-open tomorrow. The Ailestani government remains confident that a settlement will be reached once the armored trucks with mounted gatling guns arrive.

What started as a strike by bankers quickly escalated to an all out revolution by peons from all walks of life. This started when Ailestani strike-breakers driving armored trucks with mounted machine guns attempted to negotiate with the striking bankers. However, the negotiations failed to come to the proper outcome when the strikers managed to produce some heavy howitzers. An Ailestani commander was heard exclaiming, "Where the f___ did those peons get those from?!?" News of this victory spread to peons of all walks of life. Soldiers were tired of having to constantly be sent to war for absolutely no reason. Mercenaries were tired of having to be human shields for regulars. Spies were tired of dying on futile sabotage missions just to possibly damage some weapons. All in all, the peon were tired of living in brutal dictatorships run by idiots. They decided to join their banking brothers, and started an all out grab to replace the fueding dictatorships with something that would respect the peons. The attacks started with this comm broadcast, which was down throughout the fighting, but is back up today. Ultimately, the peons were set back in line today by a combination of experimental knockout gas and new mind controll chips inserted into the more defiant individuals. Finally, order has been restored. No sooner did that happen than did chaos break out again. The brutal dictatorships run by idiots agained started waging war against each other. Notably, the often ignored nation run by Mega scored a major victory against Smarties today. At first, the defenders held their ground against Mega's forces. However, over time they did not hold out against the assault, and the attackers managed to take 2 billion points from the battered defenders.

I'm thinking I'll give it a good run. As for the odds, the Gods have a huge lead in terms of tallies. On the other, JDS and rasta420 have gotten huge leads in points. My thought on the matter is that if the reset doesn't happen, that the 454 tallies scored by the Followers of Dav1 will be allocated to the Gods. However, JDS's and rasta420 will keep their bug-won winnings. These two people would easily dominate the tallies winnings, and over the course of the days left could get the tallies to overcome the gap. The problem I have with this is that people would essentially be fighting for third place. Also, without massing and decent sabbing, these two won't have nearly as much difficulty as they should have holding on to the top spot, especially since rasta's money is in untouchable covert weapons. However, its typical for the individual game to be out of reach to most people. Even without bugs, Dav dominated the first month. What I've been trying to do is create clan playing, because clan action interests all parties involved rather than a handful of elites. However disjoint the individual game has come, the bug has actually increased the compe!@#$%^&*iveness of the clan game. For reference, almost all bank accounts are empty. There is only one with more that 100mil in it, and that one isn't owned by someone who scored tallies today. Thus, the good news is that its not getting any worse than this.

Smarties today set his wrath upon those who have stolen his money today, placing the enemy in a world of hurt while has he has gone from nowhere to having the best attack overnight. This action has sent JDS's normally aggressive army to hide behind their walls. JDS's defenses have been enough to drive Smarties' forces back - for now. The rest of Penis clan did not fare so well. Rasta420, Keiver, & Relos were repeatedly sacked, and sufferred many losses both in points and in casualties. However, those casualties were not enough to prevent rasta420 from claiming best sentry in order to gain a ~slightly~ better tally output than yesterday. The only mistake that Smarties made was to attack ally !@#$%^&*onearth as well as "attacked Sound so many times he probably should be on the Gods" Mega. However, Smarties and !@#$%^&*onearth have always had that arrangement going, and Mega still isn't really an ally. I will take this opportunity to remind the clan leaders (Dav, JDS, Synook) that you should take the time to recruit players once in a while. Free agents don't score tallies. Also keep in mind that the new ships are very strong. The leader is a Nightwasp. Thus, you should also be bringing new players in.

If not, then Oldskool Spider will be introduced. Daily Comment:Well, Penis clan has successfully !@#$%^&*ed defeat from the jaws of victory. What happened was the rasta420 attempted to liquify his !@#$%^&*ets and leave it open for a clan-mate to attack him, a technique to transferr. However, Dav and The Real Picard quickly grabbed those !@#$%^&*ets. Thus, rasta420 is practically destroyed, even down to the covert weapons. If I may interject my two cents, this problem is a result of Penis Clan's nature. They have historically been the ones to use unorthodox techniques which often are more goofy than innovative. Case in point, they liquified their strongest player, an action that was neither necessary nor prudent. While such action is appropriate when one is an underdog, when you are on top the proper thing to do is just sit on your stuff and collect the tallies. What's done is done. Dav and The Real Picard are now much richer. Penis is still in strong shape though by the fact that they recruited and the Gods didn't as much. The Gods have strong players, but only a few, wheras Penis is gaining a lot of tallies by having a lot of members in the top 10. The event does demonstrate that the bug didn't really do as much damage as Smarties implies. Unforunately, Dav was really powerfull before and now even moreso. However, according to the tallies the longterm game just got more compe!@#$%^&*ive. This affects the decision to reset. Point being, if Penis clan can get their daily tally income back up higher than the Gods, but still would need more time to catch up, then the Sept 30th deadline may be reinstalled. (Generally speaking, the primary condition which will affect early reset is non-compe!@#$%^&*ive play. If the game becomes even again, then the reset will occur at the origional deadline.)

Kudos to JDS for bring Penis this far however. He started the round as a one-man show and now has the largest clan which is closely behind the Gods.

Daily Comment:I have started yet another poll today. I seem to be always making some sort of annoucement or poll, and I really need to get around to cleaning out the stickies and updating the tutorial, but I've had to work all weekend and it looks like I'll be busy this week. Besides, there are still more important things here to be done. The poll is just questions related to the game, used to judge the strength of various aspects. The first question is the most important one, so if you are playing, please state the number of times you log in per day. Too bad I am limited to five questions, as I have several more I would like to ask. As for the game, Penis was busy today. Not one active member did not have a 300+ mil hit. This clearly shows in the top 10 rankings and the tallies. The Gods are still in the lead and furthermore have begun to fill in the recruitment deficit

Now what disturbes me is what I am getting back from the !@#$%^&*essment poll. It seems to me that people log in way too often. My goal is to get that figure down to one for the defensive and four for the offensive. Ailestan News:The spies were out in force today. Smarties sabbed everyone on Penis, but Sound sabbed everyone on the Gods. Between the two of them millions of weapons were lost. This is due to Ailestan's new policy of exporting dissidents, voted into law today by a 99-1 vote in Ailestan's parliament. Under the new law, various policy-breakers will be exported to Smarties and Sound in equal numbers to be sent on sabotage missions. In unrelated news today, Senator Achmed Babaganush, the only senator who voted against the bill, has a problem in that his septic tank spontaneously exploded, sending excrement all over his property. The hit of the day occured when Sound took 450mil from Relos, proving that yes, Penis members can attack each other. (So stop bugging me JDS)

If not, Oldskool Spider will be added. Daily Comment:This round is coming down to the wire! Clan Penis proves time and time again that yes, income is nice, but it only helps you if you have the defense to hold on to your money. While Dav has been the leader in offensive capability for some time, it has been a while since he actually USED that offense. Smarties continues to sabotage, but it does little good when JDS takes 500mil from The Real Picard, and Sound takes 500mil from Mega. However, the Gods have a commanding lead and Dav's spot as #1 seems to beyond the grasp of Penis at this time. The Gods have also invested in next round by recruiting Russky, whom previously I had picked on but has scored his first tally today. A total of 75 tallies are scored each day. Yes, it would be difficult in the extreme, but Penis can still win this. It would involve carefull planning and teamwork to get the tally income to 60+, but if Penis can do it they can earn bragging rights for a month.

If not, Oldskool Spider will be added. Daily Comment:I am still on the undecided side about the reset. I know, this is terrible. If the reset is to occur on the 31st, then the Gods will win if they score atleast 12 more tallies. Take home message: Penis has to m!@#$%^&* the crap out of Dav if they want to win. Otherwise, I am glad to see all of the clan-hate topics on the forums. That means some people care about the clan game, which as I have said is a good thing because only a couple players have a shot at first place, wheras every clan member has interest in playing the clan game. Also, there was a topic in regards to single turn attack massings, and now all of a sudden a lot of players are doing it. I am sad that the attack limit is so low. If nothing else, by next round there will be a strength factor attached to attacking. It will be that if when you attack their defense is five times stronger than your offense, they lose nothing and you lose double, as well as any turns you have. If I could put a strength factor in, then the attack limit can be set really high. massing would require an attack about as strong as the defense. I think I'll also modify the casualty calculations based upon who wins, so as to reward people with offenses stronger than the defender's defense.
