At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of Our Wonderful HC Team - every member of it. That is the will of Denial and the nation.
The Denial Alliance and the NoX Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength.
Even though large tracts of The Top 10 and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Stoom and all the odious apparatus of Asc rule, we shall not flag or fail.
We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in Space,
we shall roid the the morning and noon,
we shall roid with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Alliance, whatever the cost may be,
we shall fight on the internet,
we shall bicker on the forum sites,
we shall roid in our homes and in our workplace,
we shall roid in our schools;
we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Alliance or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our time in Real Life, armed and guarded by the great outdoors, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, a new game, with all its graphics and playerbase, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.

Well, thank you so much. I am still fired up and ready to go.
You know, a few weeks ago, no one imagined that we'd have accomplished what we did here tonight in Planetarion. No one could have imagined it.
For most of this campaign, we were far behind. We always knew our climb would be steep. But in record numbers, you came out, and you spoke up for change.
And with your voices and your planets, you made it clear that at this moment, in this round, there is something happening in Planetarion.
There is something happening when men and women in Dublin and Tokyo, in London and Oslo, come out in the middle of the night to launch fleets that stretch galaxy after galaxy because they believe in what this game can be.
There is something happening. There's something happening when players who are young in age and in spirit, who've never participated in politics before, turn out in numbers we have never seen because they know in their hearts that this time must be different.
There's something happening when people play not just for the alliance that they belong to, but the hopes that they hold in common.
And whether we are rich or poor, black or white, Latino or Asian, whether we hail from Ascendancy or Conspiracy Theory, Jenova or NewDawn, we are ready to take this game in a fundamentally new direction.
That's what's happening in Planetarion right now; change is what's happening in Planetarion.
You, all of you who are here tonight, all who put so much heart and soul and work into this campaign, you can be the new majority who can lead this game out of a long political darkness.
And, together, we will begin the next great chapter in the Planetarion story, with three words that will ring from coast to coast, from sea to shining sea: Yes, we can.
