ODSflag


The ODS took part in the Maroon War. It also fought on the side of the League in GWII. The ODS did not dissolve when its government and active members realized that they could not win against the arrayed forces of Nordreich, GOONS, ENA, Illuminati, and the NPO. What followed were mass resignations, so that within the space of a day the ODS was left memberless for the most part.

Currently ODS is trying to rebuild itself, and has apponted new leadeship. Alltough some people claimed that ODS was destroyed, some remained there. Ruben(founder of ODS), appointed new leader, mm_guess_who. Most people didn't accept it, as they belived it was Ruben's attempt to return to power. Currently, ODS has changed it forum location, and is slowly growing. Ruben has no longer any control over ODS.(I do now)

Below is a copy of the charter of the ODS as it existed before its demise:
