Very disappointing Umbrella. I had a lot of respect for you guys. Looks like now though you have become that which you originally fought against. Sad day indeed.

Who ever thought NPO would be playing the roll of good guy. My how times have changed. Give them hell Pacifica.

Voted.

Awesome stuff. Congrats guys. Very nice to see our mutual friends getting close as well.

I have always heard good things about STA. After reading this announcement my respect for STA has gone up substantially. Classy group.

There wouldn't be much profit in attacking an alliance our size, so there wouldn't be any point to tech raiding them. [/quote] You profit until you hit around 15k. Then people start retaliating. Past 25-30k you got people with nukes who we all know will use them. Profit is gone. One tech raid gone wrong and your back to where you started. With the most likely scenario that you could have grown your nation faster without tech raiding. I never tech raided once and I'm not doing so bad.

[quote name='ktarthan' date='21 July 2010 - 06:04 AM' timestamp='1279688662' post='2382100'] I really wish the "anti-raiders" would make up their mind on the bolded points. It honestly does confuse me. [/quote] "Pick on someone your own size." Yes tech raid an alliance of comparable size to your own and make things interesting. Not the micro alliances who have option 1 take their beating and run away when your finished or option 2 fight back and be crushed. I don't understand how tech raiding people like that can possibly be entertaining. To each his own though.

[quote name='mrwuss' date='21 July 2010 - 04:33 AM' timestamp='1279683169' post='2381937'] Oh, I see you don't understand the situation but somehow have formed a biased opinion on it! Congratulations! U.S.S.R. was a raid target, one of the members was raided and he retaliated, which is fine. Typically we let the person who provoked the counter-attack deal with their own problems. The problem started when U.S.S.R. randomly attacked non offending nations. Which again is a choice they made and the response was to make sure they learned a lesson from it. Anything else I can catch you up on before you spout uneducated nonsense? [/quote] Oh, I see you don't understand that if your pack of bullies didn't go attacking small micro alliances that can't defend themselves properly then we wouldn't need to even be having this conversation right now. This goes for those clowns in \m/ as well. You guys start the fights and the problems. Like I said before, pick on someone your own size and then I will be impressed. Until then your just the same old bullies picking on the weak that we know. Someone has to fill that role though. I'm sure eventually you guys will get what is coming to you. Until then enjoy the tech raiding of the baby nations.

Attacking a bunch of small nations who can't even defend themselves. Really impressive. That must have taken you weeks to organize. Why don't you guys attack someone who can actually fight back and have a real challenge? Strange concept I know.

This was a fun read. Very sad for UPN though.

Welcome aboard CCC. Glad to have you with us. I have heard only good things about you.

o/ GUN. Welcome to the fight.

Good luck WAPA. At the very least our battles should be fun.

My respect for the Sith has gone up considerably. Very impressive guys. Good luck.

Interesting how an alliance such as TFD can win 2 tournaments in TE and still be considered "God awful" at war. What does someone need to do to get some respect around here? If the answer is beat yourself down in a war just let me know and I will be happy to on my way down (Your nation is almost twice as old as mine. I have almost 4x your tech level.) You really sound like someone I want to take advice from lol.

o/ TFD. May our nukes strike true.

When is Atlantis coming back?

Now we both know I didn't bribe you. I told you to wait because the current #1 guy was definitely slot filling and we both didn't want him to win. By the time he got deleted you were out of the top 5% and couldn't buy nukes anymore. Not my fault. You received nothing from me so don't try and make it sound like I gave you something in return. Lets at least say what actually happened.

We sat around just like many many other alliances. It just happens we are better builders then most. You don't notice the others because they don't build as well as us. If our NS was 5k and we just built like idiots you would have nothing to say. However, all of my alliance know how to build as well as the best around. Neo is very good I agree. But if you looked at his casualties before he was attacked you would have seen he did not do much warring either. And to say we have nothing left to win; did you ever think that we want to win just for the challenge of it? Winning is not easy. It is a challenge to win and one that when accomplished you should be proud of. I can build nukes and drop them every single round no problem. However, getting to the #1 position is where the real skill lies. We will continue to strive for that goal. The flag is not what matters anymore. The challenge of being the best is what really matters. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. But you can be assured that we will give the fellow TE members a challenge every single round for the flag. And on my losing of 1k infra. I declared on 3 other of the largest nations. I am in a total of 5 wars. 3 being offensive. Obviously you don't declare 3 offensive wars with guys with nukes if you plan on winning. I know you are more intelligent than that.

You do realize that anyone who has made it to the top is infra huggers? Those in TPF, CTA, etc who were ranked up the top were there because they did not go into war. Swestburg from TPF was always up the top and even when TPF and Ordo are fighting he wasn't engaged in a war. If you want to actually win you can't be involved in major wars. Everyone knows that. Infra huggers in return build more infra huggers. It is a vicious cycle.

The Lost Island (Jack Shepard) of no team of the alliance Porking Hellfish was attacked with a nuclear weapon by DragonSlayer (Hammer Bros) of the Blue team of the alliance League of Rogues on 12/15/2009 10:22:00 PM. I am Dragonslayer. What are you guys possibly complaining about? As far as my old post. I planned to take the round off. However, building a nation in TE is easy and I have to check it only every few days. Something that no matter how busy you are you can make time for. Check your facts before you make stupid comments.

You got a lot to learn man.

This was a good laugh. If you think I was dumb enough to lump my guys into 2 AAs you are sadly mistaken. I have spies and ghosts all around. We never plan on selling a flag. I would upload a flag with my grandmother sippen a 40 first.

I know most of you have never heard of me. I am also known as General Raam of LastDitchEffort. I am making this post to give a congratulations to my friends and fellow members that made my win possible. Round 7- Divisioners, you guys did awesome. Canuck, PJS, Lusitan, gpn777, tgsx, MrAnderson, Parasite, Koala, Tag, Viper, Herbert and anyone else I may have missed. Without you guys our victory would not have been possible. You did everything I asked of you and more. It was an honor fighting and leading all of you in battle. A general could not ask for a better group of soldiers. I thank all of you for your hard work and loyalty to the cause. To all the other TE participants. Here is the story of The Fightin Division. In round 6 we started with a large target on our back. We played to win, but at the end to many people knew us. We were defeated by the rogues by the time the round was over. This round I decided to try something different. Knowing the target would still be on our back, I decided to split The Fightin Division membership up. The new alliance we created would be known as The 40 Sippin Panty Grippen Gangstas. Thats correct. The Fightin Division and The 40 Sippin Panty Grippen Gangstas were the exact same alliance. My "minions" as they have been called took down the main competition 1 by 1. All in silence. All without ever being detected. Hypertechnologies and SameOldNation you guys did great for the majority of the round. The "rogue" you received was compliments of me. TE my friends is not only a game of nation building. Strategy is equally if not more important in TE. To those who plan on winning in the future my words of wisdom to you are this. Think outside the box. I don't care if you are the greatest builder around. Without taking into account strategy you will never win a round. Neogandolf is a perfect example of this. An absolute amazing builder. Better than myself no doubt. However, he lacked the dedicated troops around him to make his victory possible. Remember, having a large alliance is not always a benefit. Being in the spot light does not get you a flag. If you want to win a tournament you will not do it alone. Teamwork is the key. Special shoutout to Burning Glory. Your a good guy BG. We appreciate all you did for us behind the scenes. I am sure in the future we will get together again. Shoutout to toasty toast of the alliance UJA as well. Toasty, here is a link just for you. Also, next time you send a rogue on someone make sure that they do their job. A sad song to accompany the complaining Round 8- The Fightin Division and The 40 Sippen Panty Grippin Gangstas are hereby disbanding. We have accomplished our goals. TFD now has a peace and war flag now uploaded. We are the first alliance to have a war flag uploaded. We had a good time these past few rounds. In round 8 some of our previous members will be joining different alliances to have fun with the rest of you. Our custom flags are now 61 (Peace time) and 64 (War time). Good luck to all of you in round 8. I personally will be taking the round off. Have fun guys.

I can confirm this.
