After London, Brighton, and Norwich were nuked, Britain builds a second nuke. Ultimately, the entire world is nuked, and world is destroyed by a nuclear winter. The three escaped and the Vipers nuked the Hub, destroying it and Cylon resurrection capability. Credits can be lost by uploading a bad release that gets nuked. The person that uploaded the nuked content to a site will lose credits. Hence a locally nuked release can still be valid. Most groups follow one of the different warez standards to prevent being nuked. If a group violates a standard, the release will be nuked. A large amount of these first releases were nuked. A lot of releases are being nuked for various cosmetic flaws.
