[quote name='Krashnaia' date='01 March 2010 - 04:09 AM' timestamp='1267434755' post='2209779'] You didn't complain about outnumbering when it was dealmaster, you and graham on a 3-1 against me. Beyond the personal level, I know some TOOL nations offered a poor show. Same as some MA nations. Every alliance has black sheeps. But, overall, good show. Take care. [/quote] It wasn't exactly 3 vs 1, we all had other wars. So it was more like 3 vs 7 I believe. Obviously if you have the advantage you should take it, we don't begrudge you for that. And yeah there were poor nations on both sides, I agree. Most of our active significant nations performed pretty well considering the circumstances.

To those saying that it was to defend allies they weren't actually able to do or doing this since they were getting curbstomped. But either way they choose to stay in. And to TOOL, next time can you actually put up a fight, my opinion on your alliance has gone way down throughout this war. My targets generally didn't care about fighting and prefered to turtle, I was very disappointed. Take some war lessons from Argent. [/quote] So you complain that we didn't put up much of a fight yet admit that we were badly outnumbered. If you want a better fight next time come alone. I'd be happy to fight you 1vs1, 2vs2, 3vs3 etc If you give us time to buy back nukes maybe we could even work out some big [b]friendly[/b] TOOL vs RIA thing since our numbers are pretty eerily similar now. RIA was our lowest priority alliance for most of the war (nothing against you, just we had ARGENT on you guys) so I assume those you fought were mainly our inactives. It happens. I have nothing against RIA at all. You didn't ask us for any reps which I appreciate especially considering you could have used your leverage to demand obscene amounts of tech/money. If you want a better fight, come contact us (me) on IRC and lets do this before we all rebuy infra lol Once again I hold no ill will against RIA at all, you guys have been some of our nicest opponents.

Or TOOL's ex #1 and #2 Dealmaster and thomas20. Among others. [/b] [u]To the TOOL:[/u] I meet only good people in the battlefield. Good show. You really made us sweat with that counter, nice coordination in it's first days. I was a bit pissed by the braggart surrendering messages, but I suppose that's part of the psycological warfare. (We did the same, so...) Best Luck in the future. [/quote] If someone asked me I would tell them I have no idea as only one nation in MA (you) was even in range of any of our big nations. You personally fought well but its not really an indication of MA as much as it is us being out numbered and you getting to coordinate with an 18k tech nation (who wasn't in MA). And lol sorry about the surrender messages, but they worked on a couple of big nations Nice to meet you and best of luck to you as well in the future.

[quote name='Alexandros o Megas' date='28 February 2010 - 01:22 AM' timestamp='1267338356' post='2207772'] Glory for the winners of this war, respect for those who lost it, celebrations for peace achieved ... [b]To those in doubt about Sparta results ex- Nr. 1 and 2 TOOL nations (Dealmaster, thomas20) can describe them a bit about their nice experiences, enjoying 4 times every day the damage they could offer me ...[/b] Anyway, CN is better in peace, but Spartans are always ready to fight till the end ... [/quote] First of all you were a great opponent. I wasn't expecting to fight anyone with 18k tech and probably never will again. Plus you seemed to be a pretty nice guy. But just to be clear you did 4 times as much damage by turtling because you were down to about 30 mil (I believe) and we were outnumbered. If peace talks had not been initiated we would have staggered you and by the next round you would not be able to afford nukes anymore (which admittedly did a huge amount of damage, gotta love 18k tech nukes lol). We actually held off on doing damage to you at points because there was little point wasting resources knocking a 5k infra nation down when we had other wars especially since you had so little money left. Both me and Dealmaster have billions in warchests to build back to where we were before very quickly and in a long war could have outlasted you if needed. We could have kept nuking for months while you were almost out of cash. Again you obviously did a ton of damage and were a great opponent but lets not try to paint the situation in a different light.

Bump, still looking

I have 3 open slots to begin payment now. PM me in game with your price and how you would like to get paid. I can do cash or tech or some combination, just let me know ASAP

What goes around comes around...

Wow how lame is this Bison guy, cheating at CN:TE lol. I wish I could aid you bro. Keep CMing and Airstriking him. Bottom line if he is #1 or in contention for #1 near the end I'll nuke him the whole last week and I'll let whoever is near him raid my nation the whole week before that. I hate cheaters...

Looking for a January Donation, can pay in cash or tech over any reasonable timeline. Let me know if you can do it by pming me in game or querying me on IRC. (thomas20 for both)

This. Whats the point in cheating at CN:TE this late in the round lol? Something needs to be done to prevent this, its obvious when it happens (especially in the middle of the round) This *2. Its the start of a new month so could've even been a double.

I find the population boosters more important in CN:TE. In CN most nations who have been playing for a while and know what they are doing have already long ago maxed out their improvement slots. In CN:TE no one will even come close. Being able to put out 5 guerilla camps makes you pretty invulnerable to attacks except from like 1 or 2% of nations. And if you are buying tech at all in CN:TE other than like the first day, you're doing it wrong lol

To be honest I probably should have nuked you myself like a week or two back lol I guess this way I get to save a nuke.

The lines are being drawn....???

Didn't miss you, we just have very few active nations in your range I remember trying to find attackers to hit your nation specifically (just because you're in TOOL and I think you were the guy who got married, congrats btw lol).
