  1. I prefer Halloween myself. I mean come on, last year I got to be the person I most look up to in this game :P

    And don't ask me for any fresh April Fools' ideas. Best I could come up with would be the worst team in the lowest division of my soccer league beating the best team in the highest division. But nobody would know what the bleedin' blue blazes I was talking about.

    I could play an April Fools' joke on TOOL/CCC, but everyone would see that one coming from a mile away. I'm too predictable :P

  2. $150M is chump change for an entire alliance. Hell, NEO MONES did around that much damage on his own when he disobeyed orders during Karma War, and the only reason we ended up paying less is Sparta was kind enough to cancel what they owed us out against what we owed them. (And MONES himself still didn't pay a cent even after he was asked to chip in.)

    I'd also have to agree with my FEAR ally's assessment of the situation. (o/ Canik)

  3. I should have made the part about Grub more of a suggestion than to say anyone should force it. I personally like Grub, I just can't agree with much of anything he has done since the decision to roll \m/. I can't wait to get to know and build a rapport with Penguin. He seems like a great guy and a man worthy of being called emperor.

    No argument there on any point, although I'll be eternally biased towards KingRich and Darth Actorbass because of my time in CCC :P

  4. I don't really agree with making anyone step down. That's not to say I agree with Grub's actions in this conflict - I don't at all - but as for forcing someone from office, that's a line I hope I'd never cross myself. That should be up to either the person in question or the alliance said person is in.

    About C&G breaking up, that's kind of an "out of left field" statement from my vantage point, although I admit that due to work I haven't been around as much lately. :P C&G won't be on the out any time soon. Thinking back to WoTC, that war was a lot more likely to end them and they came out of it intact as a bloc, although sadly, TDSM8 went under. (I was on that side at the time, and trust me, I was gutted when it happened). In short, the bloc's proven to be far too resilient. I might not like them all, but if nothing else, I can respect them for this. (There are other things too of course :P)

    I believe that TORN, IRON, and TOP should be required to pay some reps for the preemptive attack that they launched.

    Y'know, I'm probably the only person in my alliance who actually agrees with this. :ph34r:

    Anyone else that entered on a legitimate treaty should be let off because they are only honoring the documents they signed.

    This would have more people agreeing, though.

    Anyway, well-written, AirMe. I rather enjoyed it. :)

  5. Get your drunk !@# over to Uralikan Yliopisto, NAO. :P Seriously, I'm bookmarking this.

    Some interesting tidbits to point out:

    Oh, and for the love of admin himself, please learn that a MDP isn't the lowest branch in the treaty tree to sign.

    I know of one alliance for whom it is actually the highest, since their charter disallows aggressive wars. But I agree. MDP+ should be signed with people you have a certain level of trust with.

    I can also relate to the story in the section "Your Members," Lesson two, from my time as a military commander in both CCC and TOOL. Heck, there are times where people under my command have ended up doing better jobs than I did, in the same position. :P

  6. Going by the responses, I'd say "most destructive" depends on what you mean by destructive. As Noob Cake said, the dollar-value of damage is likely the highest it's ever been.

    On the other hand, having read the Wiki on Great War III, it seems that back then, all but the most staunch neutrals were involved in that war, so the percentage of overall NS destroyed may easily have been higher.

  7. I believe most others simply suggest they don't let the door hit them on their way out, and lock the door after they're gone.

    This is what TOOL does, although under certain circumstances (say they get beat within an inch of ZI and surrender) they may be considered for re-application. We actually had one instance of that during Karma War, and let him back in.

    I forget if CCC even had a policy considering that when I was in the alliance, we never really had a problem with desertion.

    In any case, ZI is a bit extreme for desertion by itself.
