At the end of the Alliance Tournament XIII, Nulli Secunda will officially be closing its doors.
A reddit post on /r/Eve written by Gorga announced the move, citing the problems with Nulli existing in a post-Phoebe EVE. This is the final blow to the group since the resignation of Progodlegend a month and a half earlier.
Gorga talked of S2N in his post, discussing the origins of S2N, claiming that five years ago it was a “second tier AT alliance pet” to its golden age being when they fought in the Halloween War.
5 years ago, Nulli was a small and insignificant alliance, a second tier IT Alliance pet living in basically nothing. Today we fought as a main-player in the N3 in the greatest war that has ever happened, returned from the verge of defeat in B-R to winning said war, reversing the progress that the russians and the CFC had made in months in barely more than a week.
The main reasons given involved how sov warfare would play out, and that many alliance members felt that it would not be a worthwhile effort to keep going with it. A common sentiment expressed by S2N members is that there was no way for the alliance to “repair,” and given there has been a massive amount of burnout from the leadership, they feel they have reached a point of no return. As mentioned with the loss of PGL, there has been a brain drain of leadership in S2N.
The post goes on to mention their thanks to their many friends, CCP, and even their enemies past and present for the content they have provided.
Many friends have accompanied us over the years, too many to thank each individually. The list of people that worked so hard and offered so much to this alliance goes on and on, people that accompanied us since the beginning or joined our course on the way, people that led, that kept making the alliance tick, that brought out fleets each and every day, that did so much ungrateful work running IT or cooling the hotheads and kept everyone working on the common goal. So many people that kept our finances tight, that spied on our enemies. Thank you to everyone that kept our rental program running, that provided countless hours of intel on our enemies and scanning regions to make way for the invasions to come. Thanks to the people that provided our fighting heroes with SRP, to everyone that worked and coordinated with our allies, to all the countless people that kept the gears turning.
Thank you to the CEOs for their patience and passion, thank you to the directors who kept all these great corps of Nulli running, and thank you to everyone who accompanied us along this way, you gave us so much.
And thank you to all opponents, large and small, we encountered over these five years. We are much obliged.
Hats off to CCP for creating a game in which a group can exist for this long and experience so much together. We literally could not have done it without you.
Gorga also implies that some parts of the coalition will still function, but not under the Nulli Secunda name.
Now this is not the end. Life goes on. All those parts that made the entire thing of Nulli Secunda so great will still continue to exist. Your corps will find new and old friends to fly with, and all the people from alliance-chat will still be there, one place or another. Take some time with your corp and think about what a future under Aegis Sov will hold for you, and where you want to fly with your friends in the future. But for the moment remember to not go anywhere just yet: After all, there still is a tournament to win!
Until the end of ATXIII, however, Nulli will still be a force to be reckoned with, and their member corps aren’t going anywhere either.
