    wow dude seriously. sometimes its safe not to post. i hold myself back at times when i have a crazy thing to say. and your comparing SL in the Tetris/Legion war? while yes Tetris made a part of SL it isnt the whole alliance. trust me SL wouldnt be an easy win

    If the present agreement wasn't reached I could imagine Shangri-La being sacrificed in exchange for NEW as a plan B.

  2. You had ~500 million initially. You also had, I believe, almost 20k infra. You don't have 30k tech anymore. You don't have over 10k infra anymore. And you don't have the money you had initially.

    The output damage Hellas caused was irrelevant because all the nations who fought him had over 2 billion warchests - they were always going to bounce back. That is half the reason you keep a warchest: first to extend your fighting capacity, second to allow a reconstruction. Hellas had neither. I don't recall the amount of damage he caused but whatever it was it was fully rebuilt while Hellas's wasn't.

    So yeah, the operation on Hellas highly successful because it crippled his development possibilities in a medium term definitive manner and had no consequences to the Umbrella nations who fought him that lasted beyond the war fighting.

    Not sign the treaty with NEW, since as I said, everyone and their mother knows that NEW do stupid thing on annual basis, but since they were stupid enough to sign treaties with them they should stick to it. Unhappily with the current CN mentality treaties and friendship are honored only when everything is good and beautiful, but when things get bad and ugly everyone forgot all about the friendship

    Current CN mentality? Are you forgetting the cancelation parades that marked pretty much all the existance of the Continuum? The rate of treaty honouring is incredibly high these days actually.

    Need a &#$@ up of the year award. MKs stupidity starting the Dave war for no reason has to be the winner. Sure they had their fun but its been very expensive. Before the war they (DH) totally dominated the world now they are afraid to stick their head out the door. :lol1:

    No, that was not it. In any account.

    According to your side, Sparta consistently hides its Top Tier in peace mode, but you were concerned of a Top Tier causing damage.. Love the contradiction. :rolleyes:
    [/quote]

    He did leave Sparta and I don't want to call you dumb but not taking advantage of the possibility to neutralize a possible threat because an adversary is inherently bad is, on the lack of a better expression, dumb. I would have done that for any enemy alliance, regardless of their war fighting habits. Any plan that is based on the stupidity of the enemy is a bad plan.

    @Hellas: I'm pretty sure I told you some 50 times in your roleplay thread that we were doing it to neutralize the possible threat you could pose.

    NPO didn't even open negotiations with GATO until the day before we surrendered in GATO-1v, and for the record that was something like 60 days into the war and at far worse odds than you faced in the Unjust War. We were threatened with perma ZI for anyone who wouldn't leave peace mode, much less fire a nuclear weapon. You deciding to disband \m/ was no choice but your own.
    [/quote]

    Sponge's peace terms were having \m/ as a tech farm for an indetermined period. Considering NpO suffered no pressure from anyone to change their position as it would happen nowadays, the decision to disband \m/ seems only natural.

    Had the decision been up to me, he never would've had to leave. But, keep thinking that pixels are important to us.
    [/quote]

    I didn't care about the pixels, I cared about the 30k tech he had and the damages it could cause if he was allowed to build a warchest.

    If I knew a few irc rumors of DH's demise would have them whining on the forums about how their death was immanent and was written on walls, I would have spread them myself and let the hilarity ensue.
    [/quote]

    I'm not sure where you got the part about our imminent "death". I only meant that some people in certain alliances talk though about rolling DH but actually like the balls to do it. That simple.

    So much want for blood, but all we see is baits and words from you.
    [/quote]

    No blood desired from here, I'm just tired of the "DH is gonna get rolled" talk with no consequent action. Not whatever game you think you're playing..

    The point is that some people are Marsellus Wallace. They tell people what to do and they do it: deliver a briefcase, show their woman a good time, go pop some guys because they have annoyed you.

    You aren't Marsellus Wallace. You never will be. You are an associate that Marsellus Wallace employs. There are benefits to being Vincent Vega--so long as you remember your place of course.
    [/quote]

    You misunderstand me. I'm not doubting your intentions of trying to generate whatever kind of emotions from me or Umbrella by insinuating, justly or not, that we will follow MK through whatever they tell us to. Others have done it before. I am asking why are you trying it again - if it hasn't produced any result before why do you insist in doing it.

    My personal guess is that you're a flat out idiot but I'd like to give you the chance to justify yourself.

    So Bud, do you think that Umbrella has those 'Gather Intelligence' reports they are getting back from their suicide bomber put into a Google spreadsheet doc or posted in paste bin? They seem old school enough to go paste bin, but you never know. I just hope they spell my name right. I hate it when they get it wrong.
    [/quote]

    It's called STORM ok?

    [quote name='ChairmanHal' timestamp='1356752914' post='3068988']
    Bud is saying that Umbrella is whatever MK needs it to be, usually Vincent Vega. Clear enough?
    [/quote]

    That's a completely new and unheard insinuation/insult. What is the point though?

    Laughable, lots of people blame the dead guy when they get caught. Which PB member alliances were behind this plot?
    [/quote]

    Me and JA were behind the plot for one. VE was on board and FOK too. I always defended that rolling XX/SF was a matter of time while rolling Valhalla was a matter of opportunity. Sadly NG only saw FARK in their front and we were also having some heated discussions with MK and TOP at the time.

    Go get em AI!

    Also nice to see someone in Umbrella have a nutsack.
    [/quote]

    I'm pretty sure last war you could have experienced Umbrella better if NPO wasn't continuously covering up your ass and strong arming the coalition. You can always lose the rest of your upper tier next war ;)
