  2. EQ Coalition stages another intervention-- Because we care

    in Alliance Announcements (IC)

    Posted

    Not a single cent of what we "owed" to Sparta was waived. The only tech that was waived was a sum owed to MK.

     

    I'm sure you'd have waived our reps but your government was too busy being inactive tools, to the point where we had to pick targets in your alliance and dump them tech because I couldn't reach your govt most of the time.

     

    Which, ironically, leads us to this very war. In unsuspected ways.

    I was about to say this hurt and that I totally waived some of your Athens reps, but maybe I only waived TSO's.

    Either way, your tech was great.

     

    Suck it, TOP

    In his defense, I do recall quite a few being very low. Pudge, formerly Umb, back to MHA and back to Umb again was rather low before the war began I know for sure. Otto too. Not sure where he's at now.

     

    Casualties in general are a stupid benchmark because they do not enhance or prevent damage, which is limited or increased only by the user behind the computer.

     

    If you have someone helping through the most timid of fighters at 300k ns, do you count the person whom is helping them and their casualties regarding their skill if they are guarenteed to fight whatever instance of war at their doorstep this very moment? 

    I don't think casualties mean very much either in some circumstances, that is why I didn't bring them up.

     

    I believe you'll find Pudge and Otto residing on the DBDC AA ;)

    Do you understand the meaning of the "majority" word?

    Do you understand the meaning of [citation needed]?

     

    "I checked some Umbrella numbers back in 2011 and most of them were bad"

     

    If you want to make propaganda, stick to pictures.  If you want to talk stats, cite your sources.

     

    I'll show you how!

     

    Now if I were to say something like, "If you combined the casualties for STA's top two nations, they still wouldn't equal the number dongs you can send in a single aid package," that would be easy to look up and verify because it is based on current information that is readily accessible to all people.

    Doesn't really mean anything, but don't bring that weak "something from 2011 that I sort of remember" crap in here.

    Politics and nation building has their part on Umbrella nations size, but the most important one is how they were good at avoiding real wars, they had big nations for the same reason WTF and GPA have big nations, I remember going through Umbrella nations a year and some months ago and their top nations causality rank and it was in majority bellow 1k causalities.

    [citation needed]

     

    Unless you're somehow implying cuba and methax don't actually exist.

    This war was over the moment the first shot was fired. Like in chess, we are in the end game. You guys are making each move but everyone playing and everyone watching knows that the end result will be checkmate unless our side makes an enormous screw up. Which incidentally, is very unlikely to happen.

    Wait until a few of pawns on your side find out they're next.

     

    That's when it's going to be interesting.

    The keyword that you're neglecting is "IF"... He said "if" and I, in attempting to explain in layman's terms, also said "if". The extent to which they like their stats and one may then arguably call them a stat hugger (despite any dearth of infra or stats to hug), he suggests, may be determined by their willingness to be ground down to a shell of their former selves, and therein resemble GOONS.

     

    It's cute, though, that people keep trying to misunderstand what he meant and also now my explanation of it.

    "IF" we have to keep trying to figure out exactly what he said, he should have either worded it differently or not at all.

     

    Ideas that cannot be communicated with clarity and succinctity should usually be kept to oneself.

    I'm not really an expert here, but I just checked the top 250 and don't see how this is even relevant considering at least 157 of them (quit counting after this point) are in alliances that aren't even involved.

     

    Granted this number was likely lower when the war began of course, but 250 seems to be a rather abritrary place to pick at this point.

     

    Edit: What I'm really trying to say is come out and play already, neutral menace.

    The 250 number has to do with the game mechanics of who can declare on who.

     

    If you're the #250 sized nation, you could be 5 k NS, but if Hime decides it's go time, no NS range difference will save you.

     

    You can hit anyone within 250 nations of you, as measured by NS.  When this war began, there were quite a few more eQuilibrium nations in that range than there are now.
