Guru Order, you guys need to speed up.

IRON and Rok, your party will be awesome! Get on it.

Well that was a massive drop.
[/quote]

that was just a random drop. the real drop hasn't happened yet.

[Stalk]

Shouldn't Guru Order be unitalicized?

Yeah, I checked what large nation you had to have join after my post, but 4 deletions on the same day as a massive gain is just unlikely.

Your tactic? More like my genius idea!
[/quote]

True, your idea as well.
Also, just saw, NEW is going to join the race soon.

[Lord Brendan]

Do we really need to keep the war dots now? It's kind of silly when IRON is the only one with a colour.

That's a good thing. I've never dealt with them, but from everything I've witnessed from afar they seem like a great bunch.

Sorry about italicizing Guru Order, i wasn't thinking when I added them apparently.

We have a lot of ghosts, something that I was made aware of through one discussion.
We can not currently really ghost bust due to terms, because unfortunately, a lot do not leave AAs because one simply asks them to. So yeah, until we get out of terms this situation will continue. I presume after a week out of our terms, our numbers will "level off" so to speak and there will be no such extreme variations in membership count from update to update.

Really don't want to start an argument in this thread, but I'm pretty sure you could chase off 99% of ghosts with just weak ground attacks and cruise missiles.

Your terms do not forbid you from declaring wars on ghosts.

I suppose we choose not to order our nations/players to go in war with bare minimum of war essentials, also dancing with possible danger of being called out for breaking terms. I am sure we will deal with those ghosts which do not respond to verbal requests when we actually have all the conditions met for such. My personal opinion of this is, that its the only rational thing to do,..I suppose there are other possible views.

Until then, objectively speaking, only thing "hurting" is our membership stat and annoyance from time to time on clearing up affiliations when one of the ghosts does a negative thing to a third party. Suppose we will manage for the time we have left under terms.
