Thoughts on the TIO-OO situation.
Ok I am bored so I figured I would explain to the world what happened in the TIO-OO situation Thursday from my point of view. Now that it is all over it doesn't much matter now, but it's Saturday and I'm waiting for my opponents in GATO's next elections to so something bad about me so I can respond. Why not have a drama filled blog post while I'm waiting. Anyway here is the story:
The night before I had talked to TheRec, an old friend of mine, about how Athens and TIO had been harassing them. I promised to ask Athens and TIO about it in the morning. I also talked to Randalla ,a close friend of mine over at AzN, about the situation just to make sure TheRec wasn't painting Athens and TIO as super awful guys. Randy seemed to have a problem with how Athens and TIO was treating OO, but from the way she talked it didn't seem that bad.
The next day before I got a chance to talk to anyone I was informed by Chimera that IAA may go to war soon. After asking for details I learned TIO was going to DoW if they didn't get an apology from OO for the incident we all know about now. I told Chimera not to let anything happen that I could get an apology from OO (I didn't want to fight good friends, and I didn't want to go to war over something that trivial) GATO would gladly follow IAA into war no matter what. Considering IAA died for us in 1-vision we will do anything to repay that debt.
I informed TheRec that we needed to set up a meeting between OO and TIO/IAA, and so we did. Since there is some slight confusion as to why I was there (someone last night said GATO was stupid, because we played into TIO's hands.) I was requested to come there by TheRec and play mediator. We had everything solved and figured out until Ezequiel came into the room started throwing insults around and said they weren't apologizing and left.
Athens immediately started working to keep the ultimatum from going up. I was actually surprised at how sincere they were with not wanting war over something this dumb. For all of you peeps that thinks Athens are nothing but mindless war mongers who are controlled by MK you are completely wrong. I continued talking to Outsiderz over at TSCE (an OO ally), TheRec, and Randalla.
Finally Eze came to his senses and done what I had suggested all along (just post you were sorry if what was said was taken out of context), and Omni saved the world from war that would split Super-Grievances. (that's how I would like to think anyway)
So what have we learned today? Super-Grievances owes Omni it's life. Athens are very good allies and are not mindless barbarians. IAA and GATO love each other extremely. And finally Omni has friends everywhere.
So quick question. If it would have went down. Worst CB ever?
