Someone told me Invicta wasn't any good at anything. Is this true?

50 is a decent start, but you must invest much time to the education process, and make it entertaining, so you'll finish it quickly, and be reable to settle more unaligned barbarian territory.

Maximal congratulations to all those in the new goverment.

[quote name='Geoffron X' timestamp='1335647957' post='2960512'] I mean, I guess it's true in a sense: you're cowards, and so you are automatically on the winning side. But you had allies on both sides, and could either have truly defended both sides or been neutral. [/quote] The ability to win wars by default lies in the proper arrangements for needed forces, and has quite nothing to do with cowardice. Modern cowardice is apparently here used as a synonym for "boo for not sucking enough to lose wars."

[quote name='Roquentin' timestamp='1335223608' post='2957974'] Man, I was really worried, but it was an optional treaty already. [/quote] With GATO, everything is optional.

This is sane and reasonable.

Invicta seems screwed by design.

[quote name='Schattenmann' timestamp='1334349974' post='2952409'] I think we can all agree that Umbrella !@#$% money and that GOONS is sipping at the porcelain fountain. Although it appears that lately Umbrella may have discovered a richer compost results from letting Deinos process the waste. [/quote] I wouldn't agree to such vulgar ways of putting it, but it is clear, that there is mutual benefit in exchanging dongs for tech with foreign nations. But I'm left wondering, whether you had a point, or did you just wish to associate fecal matter with the associates of yours truly? edit: quoted

[quote name='Chaoshawk' timestamp='1334349381' post='2952398'] Well, this is just overkill. [/quote] Well, if you think this is an overkill, tell me why settle for killing, if you can overkill at will?

[quote name='Schattenmann' timestamp='1334347045' post='2952381'] The statsmasters have already addressed this. You're incorrect: I read it like this: You're snails that eat Umbrella's poop. :3 [/quote] I'm getting the impression, Schattenpoop, that your skills as a rhetor have been increasingly more lacking recently. It doesn't fit your style to say poop that often, in my opinion, but I'm glad that what we are doing, gives you ammo for your so called creativity.

[quote name='Methrage' timestamp='1334343783' post='2952347'] Kaskus/Mongols aren't out to destroy or take anything away from GOONS, so what are you defending GOONS from? Defend GOONS from not having the ability to extort money from Kaskus/Mongols? [/quote] Together, as allies, we are here to see this conflict to a proper end agreeable by all parties involved. If that includes monetary reparations for grievances caused, it is only just and appropriate judgement, of current international practices. Mongols/Kaskus have grieved someone close to me, and I would see justice exacted.

[quote name='Merrie Melodies' timestamp='1334295037' post='2951941'] It shouldn't be difficult to understand, VE is anti tech raiding, VE is fighting a war whose root cause is tech raiding, VE is hypocritical of itself. [/quote] You misunderstand. We are not anti tech raiding, and I don't think we have ever said so much. We simply withhold from the habit, without enforcing any morality on the issue in general.

[quote name='Omniscient1' timestamp='1334294073' post='2951922'] Except you won't remedy the problem. If you guys have Kaskus surrender without lowering the rep amount within a month or even two months, I'll send you free tech. [/quote] Making some alliance affiliations into academy war training grounds, like /b/ was for some time, does remedy all and any problems related to said alliance affiliations.

[quote name='Holy Empire of Halin' timestamp='1333874751' post='2949908'] We stopped using banks a long time ago. [/quote] Thats because they were all killed, yes?

I wish prosperity and glory to this new goverment, and would be glad to see your alliance ascend beyond all status and power reached hitherto.

This is great. I was until quite recently somewhat ignorant as to how awesome Deinos is, but I'm glad to be reformed in that regard. o/ Dinohouse

[quote name='IYIyTh' timestamp='1325822786' post='2893704'] There was a time when I'd consider myself binded to this game, that's simply no longer the case. I don't know what I'm going to do as of now, but what I do is solely up to me. I had intended to quit but I haven't decided if I've milked this game for all it's worth to me yet. Besides, a few of you helped me realize there was more fun to be had through other means. However, if you wish, I can let you know personally if it is of concern to you when I make a decision. I make no promises on following through though. [/quote] That looks familiar, but I'm not sure if it's worth a thread. But as they say, there's always more milk to those with a keen sense organ of choise.

Hahaha, madness of a Bassbobbie.

[quote name='Bill Wallace' timestamp='1323985806' post='2879111'] Somehow we've hurt you. What can I do? Flowers, candy, a card? Maybe a hug? [/quote] A good beating perhaps, mister Wallace.

[quote name='Heft' timestamp='1323898244' post='2878013'] I think I'll use this one the next time an ally gets attacked: "We don't need to defend you, because your [i]real[/i] strength was in your heart all along!" It makes me feel warm and tingly just thinking about it. [/quote] I'm glad to know you get aroused so easily. You obviously fail to recognize the fact that we and GOD are in very, very good terms. Regardless of your tingles.

[quote name='Phaedron' timestamp='1323895002' post='2877988'] Thrawn -- the things you learn about a person on IRC, eh? Thanks for saying what everyone in The Apparatus is thinking. We are extremely proud of our allies and the fact that we are a couple of small alliances jumping into a war with the big boys and holding our own. Funnier still that we had originally thought VE would counter us if we had came into the other side of the war via our alliance with you guys, eh? Guess VE just loves Apparatuses that much o7 ASG [/quote] I want to invade your apparatus. This is only natural.

[quote name='Krack' timestamp='1323889717' post='2877935'] Sure. GOD's getting ripped apart today and the one alliance it was loyal to (over all others) is doing a victory dance because it gets to veto which other alliances get to carry out the destruction. And you're gonna get rolled next because you have no real friends and we both know the alliances you are treatied to would turn on you in an instant if it was politically expedient. As a neutral observer, it's pretty funny. [/quote] You're delusional. God being ripped apart is a clear overstatement, and hugely disrepresentetive of the truth. GOD is practically intact, as it's strength does not lay in it's National Strength statistics, but of each individual member nations' intellectual and social contributions, and the power derived from having a great close-knit community. And regarding us being rolled next, hah, this seems a lot like the typical farkistani wishful thinking that brings you to a timespace where you're fooling yourself. Truth is on our side. Victory will be ours. The enemy will be destroyed.

Obvious fake, I can tell by the pixels and having seen a few photoshops in my time.

Hah, he's just pretending he's got something.

This is important news to me.
