I wrote this in honor of those whom fought at the island. (Yes, I know it's a ripoff of the Gettysburg Address)

2 Fortnights, and 12 days ago, our leaders brought forth onto this website a new nation, conceived in merriment, and dedicated to the proposition that all redditors were created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that website, or any website so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on yet another great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those that gave their upvotes that our nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we do this.

But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, and we cannot desecrate this ground.The brave men, active or not, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to upvote or downvote. The council will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but they can never forget what happened here. It is for us, the active, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored downvoted we take increased devotion to that cause for which they have the last full measure of devotion-- that we here highly resolve that these downvoted shall not have been in vain--that this nation, under Pasta, shall have a new birth of happiness--and that government of the Peri's, by the Peri's, for the Peri's, shall not perish from Chroma.

Starting friday night at 12:00 (eastern time) we will be clashing over /r/IslandofWarriors[1] . It will probably continue into saturday morning is my guess, we need all the support we can get! Be sure to only upvote the specific troop we are strategically pushing through, otherwise Orangered can manipulate us!

Adra714 and I have finally finished making this place look the way it is. Everyone, please be sure to send /u/Adra714 a big thank you for all the hard work that she put in to this, because surely without her CSS wizardy it would have been impossible.
