Laguna | Thursday, February 14, 2013 - 08:16 pm  It is time to party like it is ! Little Upsilon began in 2007 on the 14th of February. To celebrate its 6th anniversary and its first millennium (in two days or something), I digged deep and composed the following stats, to give a picture of how LU looked like at the end of its first month. This is my gift to LU, a look into the long lost past. If you had looked at the top rankings, you would have found this:
Rank | Country | Game Level | Score | President Name | Member of Federation | Member of Common Market | Finance | Nukes | Nominal Value | 1 | Avalon | 1 | 1524 | Ursula Pebblecook | White Highlands Collective | The Free Peoples Market | 8 | No | 75,6 | 2 | I Smell Bad | 4 | 1377 | Calloe Wolf | | | 30 | No | 51,2 | 3 | Ansem The Wise | 4 | 1351 | Laguna Loire | TGDF | Laws of Economics | 735 | No | 10,3 | 4 | Kildare | 3 | 1280 | Mick | | Little Upsilon Market | 838 | No | 15,6 | 5 | Pirate Homeland | 4 | 1252 | Despotnik Rasputin | | Pirate Goods | 44 | No | 33,8 | 6 | Khalistan | 1 | 1227 | Ranjit Singh Mann | | Little Upsilon Market | 708 | No | 10,5 | 7 | Midgar | 1 | 1227 | Zapp Brannigan | SOL Federation | The Free Peoples Market | 303 | No | 17,9 | 8 | New Florida | 1 | 1224 | LisetteSparks | | International Common Exchange | 82 | No | 30 | 9 | Tough Guys Land | 3 | 1222 | Jack Zar 01 | | LU Common Market | 703 | No | 10,7 | 10 | Dogtown | 1 | 1218 | Van polhemus | | Eridana marketplace | 266 | No | 11 | 11 | The Kingdom of Tediovs | 4 | 1204 | tedivm | | Safe Harbor | 836 | No | 11,5 | 12 | Konstant Khaos | 1 | 1188 | Konstant Chaos | White Highlands Collective | The Free Peoples Market | 260 | No | 17,7 | 13 | LU | 3 | 1178 | Nicolas Fernandez Ponce | The Punishers | | 3 | No | 28,8 | 14 | Polenga | 2 | 1177 | John Boo | | | 704 | No | 10,9 | 15 | New Amsterdam | 1 | 1177 | Rozzy | | Little Upsilon Market | 710 | Yes | 10,4 | 16 | Original Sin | 4 | 1166 | DemonReaper | | Jesus Saves | 790 | No | 10,8 | 17 | Waltonia | 2 | 1162 | Comander Finx | The Free Peoples Alliance | The Free Peoples Market | 447 | No | 11,1 | 18 | New Found Freedom | 2 | 1159 | King Melvin | TGDF | Eridana marketplace | 81 | No | 11,9 | 19 | Rome | 1 | 1154 | Sir William | Strength and Honor | Markets of Rome | 665 | No | 11,1 | 20 | The United Kingdom of Sombara | 2 | 1152 | Reece Rail | | inner peace | 55 | No | 10,9 | If you had been searching for a Federation or Common market, you would have found that:

King Hezekiah II | Thursday, February 14, 2013 - 08:34 pm  Great Post Laguna. As the world Government of the LU, we officially decree this day to be the "birthday" of our planet. For now on we will have festivities for this day next year. |
E is Easy 0 is like 0 | Thursday, February 14, 2013 - 08:56 pm  Great post Laguna. I love seeing historical stuff like that. I didn't realize Avalon was in White Highlands Collective. When I first started, Genie was still around and in that fed. |
Rick | Friday, February 15, 2013 - 01:54 am  That is a blast from the past!!! |
King Herod VI | Friday, February 15, 2013 - 04:11 am  This is interesting. I am a new player,so I have no idea who these people are. |
SweetPea | Friday, February 15, 2013 - 04:34 am  Sure is Rick. Many great players, a lot of substance that needs to be replaced. Quantitatively speaking, Little Upsilon is more active, but qualitatively speaking the gap from then til now is amazing. I prefer the former crowd than the latter. But growth is indeed good. |
