Going nuke rogue on alliance leaders is just silly and unoriginal, especially on someone like Moo who deals with them all the time. If you're gonna go nuke rogue, get a target alliance hit three high infra nations without SDIs (if you can that are 10 or more days inactive and try to anarchy them with a blitz, so that they'll have to collect in anarchy) and nuke them repeatedly destroying as much as you can before all your nukes are spied away, and if you have a huge warchest get a Manhattan project and keep it up.
If you're not going to go full out, might as well just let your former alliance mates raid you for tons of money, tech and land. You could give away $12 million+, 60+ tech, and 900 land a day that way.
I'm assuming the continual reiteration of the notion that going rogue on Moo is silly and unoriginal is more to dissuade others than to inform me.
Otherwise, I agree again.
My nukes won't be spied away as I have a Missle Silo and I also have a Manhattan Project. My SDI is to hopefully keep me in his strength range for longer.
As for giving away tech, I'd be more than happy to once I can't redeclare on Moo anymore. I just want to see how far I can take it first.
Also, I hope you're not too disappointed with me; I've always liked you.
I can answer that question. The reason why internet-speak is so prevalent on the internet is the exact same reason why AIM-speak is so prevalent in AIM.This is gr8. I might actually be patronizing this time, but only in playful jest.
Take care, HH.RL Tip: Be sure to say "excuse me" when you walk in front of others at the grocery store.
If this is to imply that I'm being rude in my actions (I'm not assuming that's what you mean), then I'll certainly heed your advice. Please, excuse me, tis only some fun.
Sheep
Also attacking Moo is like so 2006.
So I hear! :lol: I really should have taken target requests first.
That's what she said
anyway...any chance we can get a screen shot of that warchest? That seems a little big for somebody who hasn't even cracked 40k yet...
I would, but there's not a pretty way to do it anymore I don't think. Warchests don't show up on the attack screens anymore. If someone wants to spy on me and take a screen of that it would look fairly presentable.
I remember you from GPA Good luck in real life. Funny to see how all the former hippies suddenly turned into berserkers 
I certainly remember you. You were always a great member. If I had never left the GPA after the war I doubt I'd have ever gone rogue, I'd have felt too guilty. I'm glad I did though, it's enjoyable.
However, this action is surprising at best. It doesn't seem like you at all. And while I don't presume to speak for them, it seems like a bit of a slap in the face to the people in VE who were trying to find you trades yesterday so you didn't get deleted. sleep.gifOh well, best wishes to you in RL.
Thanks for your kind words, and you're right, it's certainly uncharacteristic of me. I really do take the game as a game though, and hope others do as well. If it were actually upsetting to Moo, emotionally distressing, then I wouldn't do it, but I really don't think that's the case. I bet it's just irritating.
I don't think I really upset anyone at VE, they seem to understand. Really it was after I didn't secure a trade, and then mistakenly collected with my labor camps and guerrilla camps up that I just decided that I might as well call it quits. Besides, I didn't mean to not collect for 20 days. It was only coincidence that I checked my nation before it was deleted, so that was more or less a good sign that if I was going to do anything with my 489 day old nation, it was time. Sorry if I disappointed you April, I've always greatly admired you.
EDIT: Wanted to respond to April without posting twice.
-
That is a colossal, humongous, amazingly large war chest.
Hey thanks. It would have been more if I didn't collect at 20 days with my labor and guerrilla camps up tonight.
Again, I'm meticulous.
-
Going nuke rogue on Moo is boring and unoriginal. At least be creative. *facepalms*
Is reiteration the same as being unoriginal? Again, I agree on both counts.
-
If you're not looking for fame, and you really don't have anything against Moo, why bother posting a topic here? :\
Great question.
Because I wanted to make it clear that I forgot to remove my AA, and because I wanted some brief attention.
-
Wait, you don't actually think this will do anything, do you?
Nay.
Just how big exactly is that warchest?I can't tell you that! That would damage my meticulous militarily planning!
What the hell though: $730M.
-
Okay, so, you get infamoumy, you attack Moo, emperor of the NPO. You know, it would be one thing if this was an original idea, but how many nuke rouges do you think he takes a month? At least two probally. This idea is fail. If your going to nuke rouge, at least find an original target please, not someone who's been nuke rouged a thousand times.
Please don't get me wrong, I most certainly don't want any sort of fame, nor did I try to be too terribly original.
I agree, my idea is "fail" (I never understood the popularity of all of this internet-speak). Also, I didn't mean that to be patronizing, the quotation that is.
-
well, if ZI was your goal i think you just got a first class ticket
That's for sure.
I admit, it's kind of a mean thing to do. I do hope that no one gets too upset.
I'll likely fail utterly anyway. It's all quite ill-prepared.
-
Yeah, I'm a nuke rogue.
I've enjoyed playing CN, but I've grown tired of it. I didn't want to see my massive warchest go to waste so I thought I'd aim it at one of the most influential figures, the Emperor of the NPO, TrotskysRevenge.
It's nothing personal, I actually kind of like him.
Also, in my zeal to effectively quit CN I forgot to drop my alliance affiliation, so note that I in no way represent the Viridian Entente.
My goal is ZI, we'll see if it happens.
That is all.
-
This is the alliance I joined? I jest.
Good show.

Under Pigs in the resource description it says, "Lowers soldier upkeep cost -$0.50, increases solder efficiency +15%, and increases population +3.5%.", it should of course be soldier.
-
I never spoke directly with you aside from within threads, but I've been a long-term, avid lurker on the GPA forums and have always particularly enjoyed reading your contributions. How can anyone be so damn nice all the time? I think you posted more
's than all of the GPA combined, ever.You were enjoyable. Best of luck to you in your life.

Well there are many reasons we choose this name, it took us almost three months to decide a name, and we wantedt obe something different and unique but most people knew about it.
PLus it is an eye cather in recruitment messages, Thats why we got like 20 members in 5 days.
I would love to answer your questions all day, and at the same time you will give us small new nation a chance that we deserve.
I guess what I was getting at is: what does it mean? Is it supposed to be funny? I just don't understand.
-
Been on a diet? Good job! Maybe now you'll be able to keep a steady girlfriend(Anime cons have tons of hot babes I hear). But if you marry her be sure not to pull a Philosopher and get dumped due to online games.
Bitter much? I'm not trying to insult you, it's just that this is a game, and if people are mean in it and it isn't fun for you anymore, then just stop playing. It's really not healthy. The OWF is gross, mostly.

I respect your decision and wish you good luck with gremlins, they are great
however
indeed i have been in many alliances mos tof them get in conflicts either externally or internally, and i am trying to eliminate both in my new alliance
That is perfect, who wouldnt want an active member, we are new with potential we have alot of locked doors that only a nation like yours posses the key to them, you have lasted from many wars and your recent war is actually a great war in history of CN.
I understand where you stand, you have alredy experienced much wrath, and now you need time to prosper again, I can help you with that. so can my alliance.
we need a new wise leader with heck of some experience, and we are willing to do anything inorder to achieve him/her.
Thanks for your detailed response. May I ask why your alliance is named as it is? What was the intent in its choosing?
EDIT: Adding another reply to avoid double-posting.
Move to red and join none.That is actually a rather appealing option, however I only enjoy CN through participating within alliance forums. The CN forum pales as a substitute for an alliance forum.

Macedonia is a peaceful alliance.We are a community of friends who help each other succeed.
I hope you read the link...it gave a bio/constitution to what Macedonia is about!
I did read the link. I've nothing against your alliance, it's just that I'm eying more appealing options.
Thanks again though, and best of luck to you and your alliance.

To:
DERKA-JIHAD
Macedonia
The Order of Halsa
No, but thanks.
I'll consider the Gremlins, but what I'm really looking for is a response from an alliance member geared towards relating with what I originally posted that I was looking for.
I know where to find the list of alliances.
Thanks everyone.
-
Do you use IRC?
I have on occasion, but I prefer participating via forums.
Why do you ask?
-
EDIT: Thanks everyone for posting, I've decided to join the Viridian Entente.
-
I wish the GPA the best of luck.
Also, reopening the public forums would be splendid.

His Holiness of His Holy Empire surrenders to IRON and its attacking nations, Delgursh of New Republic of Rome, deacon of Morten, and Iron Helix of Myspace.
I've resigned from the GPA as of the 14th of February.
-
Excellent I approve.
Seconded. Bad dissenters.
-
Geez. He's just trying to be humorous.
There's really no need to be hostile. Lighten up, aye?

It all seems like the same weak propaganda that's been used for months. It's like:
Person A: You're a liar!
Person B: I've never lied.
Person A: You're a liar! I'm gunna beat you up, no one likes a liar, right guys?
Person B: But look, here's proof, I didn't lie!
Person A: See! He's lying again! Let's get him!
This is totally a might makes right issue. Which is why I'm trying my damnest to get our voice out there.
I think you're doing a tremendous job Rooman. I just wanted to give you my support. You're doing all you can to foster understanding and you're mostly just getting hostility.
The feeling I get is that many don't want to understand, they just want to be right.
Also, as someone who is new to relating via the internet, I'm surprised at how harsh people can be. People are mean, and it makes me sad.
All we want to do is play a game, and have fun within a community. The GPA as a whole works hard to get along with everyone, and the effort gets so little appreciation. The means is important, not just the end.

Regarding the OP: My sentiments exactly. Modesty is key to allowing for critical thinking. Unfortunately, critical thinking is claimed by far more than actually practice it.
Critical thinkers, who are aware of their eternal potential for fallacy, and who only seek truth, are the best that humanity has to offer.

You're not me! Don't tell me you know me better than I know myself unless you want to provide an argument, and, then listento subsequent responses! (Cryptically related to CN)
's than all of the GPA combined, ever.

Oh seriously? I honestly had no idea. That'll certainly stunt my plans. :lol:
Well in that case, I'll be giving away tech and money like crazy in about a week.
That's actually really, really funny. Have I mentioned that this was all quite ill-conceived yet? I think I might have.
