An Important Message regarding the Future

The world is changing. Peace has long ruled over Entmoot. Time and time again, the Free People of Entmoot gathered and chose a president from their own. But now complacency has lulled them into lowering their guard.

This has not gone unnoticed.

A shadow is stirring in the dark land of Mod-dor, also known as the Mod-forum, now that the borders of this dangerous place are no longer watched. In silence Mod-dor has observed, tested and probed the strength of the Free People of Entmoot until they deemed the time right. That time has come, as in right now, before the Free People wake up and smell the coffee.

Free People of Entmoot (dear puny mortals) hear me!

Your chosen leader, the president Acalewia, has been deposed. (She's lucky we haven't been able to get hold of her and send her off to the dungeons of Dol Guldur yet.)

Yes, this is a coup. We, the denizens of Mod-dor have now dominion over the whole of Entmoot. Tremble and despair!

But we like a bit of entertainment fair fight. Heh heh heh.

So in a year's time, if you can gather enough forces, we will allow you to attempt to form a Last Alliance, choose a Steward and wrest control back from Mod-dor. Fail in that and the dark land of Mod-dor will rule supreme for another year. *insert maniacal laughter*

That is all. Welcome to the Dictatorship of Entmoot.

Well it's about time. Long overdue. And a very good thing for Entmoot, I think.

We-ell, maybe evil never wins, but it sure knows how to have a good time.

Ahem *eyes Hector suspiciously* You look familiar, you weren't part of the old regime by any chance, eh?

Unfortunately I believe in the right of self-determination. So I'm afraid I'll have to boycott your coup for idealistic reasons. Is that going to be a problem?

Is there anyway we can start a Last Alliance thread now, and start gathering our troops and stuff WITHOUT the Mod-dor people seeing it?

THAT'S what I'd call unfair...

You know, this is NOT what I had in mind... couldn't you at least have found me a more dignifying way to travel than over the shoulder of an orc?

Well, no.

I mean, we left open a great opportunity to take your own destiny in hands right there in the announcement of the coup. How enlightened dictatorial is that?

Never satisfied, are you? How many dictatorships actually encourage rebellion? We give you the chance, we tell you what you could do to regain independence, and you complain about not being able to do it without us watching? Really, there's no pleasing some people.

Oh, no, Varnafinde, never. Just ask Sauron, Morgoth, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, and Mao. Not to mention the SAS infiltrated into various Nazi occupied countries, the French Resistance, and Poland. Need I go on?
