Farrin thank you for your service to the order. Letum and Frawley you know all of us Pacificans have the greatest respect for you guys and the work you do on our behalf even if most of us do not post here. We look forward to the future you will forge with us. o/ Farrin o/ Letum o/ Frawley o/ Pacifica

Back a long while ago i used to pay a game called Red Storm Rising, a sub simulator based on the Tom Clancy books. It was a brilliant game that entertained for months. Have you ever played it. Where can i buy a 286 or whatever it used to run on and play it again?

Either this is a brilliant typo or a very good use of wordage. Either way it made me chuckle

Its not a surprise to see the British Empire at the top

Have some fun GATO

Good luck TLR

[quote name='Chuck Normis' timestamp='1358876983' post='3083805'] Man these surrender terms are gonna be a pain to work out... [/quote] I'm hoping it will be - Side A -We would like to surrender Side B - Ok lets do this again in a few months No reps, No bull just finish, walk away and get to do it all again. To paraphrase a wiser man than me War Good, Reps Bad

Not wishing to prolong this peace mode debate but - Would VE be a better ally if they had put a much larger percentage of their NS in peacemode, prolonged their involvement in the conflict whilst doing and receveiving the same amount of damage ouver the extended period of time by cycling in and out of PM? It seems to me they did as much damage as quickly as they could and when they could realisitcally not do much more have agreed to peace out. I do not see what massive benfit would be achieved if half or whatever of them sat in peacemode and cycle in and out (assuming this is the tactic that is being suggested is the way to go) to prolong the conflict but do less damage over a given period of time. By the way shout out to one of my VE opponents this war SatanisLuciferi.

[quote name='Nikita Ilyich Lenin' timestamp='1336641272' post='2965772'] Be on the look out for some big NG gains in the future.... [/quote] If all of FOK transfered to NG that would make you No. 1 or very close to it would it not?

[quote name='Chief Savage Man' timestamp='1327925911' post='2910541'] It's not a coup, a group of people decided they weren't what was best for the alliance and decided to remove them in a way that circumvented the charter of the alliance. [/quote] I think you will find a coup is only a coup if shaneprice is involved. As he does not reside in RoK this cannot be defined as a coup.

Ironically with blue balls

Best of luck in the future NSO, hope all goes well for you. [quote name='Farnsworth' timestamp='1309518572' post='2745863'] I think it's silly how people are still hating on NPO so much. How much more interesting would it be if we could have a new villain... If we're going to vote on one, I'd prefer one that's currently villainous and not one that merely was eons ago. [/quote] My thoughts exactly, a bit of an orginal idea from the 'other side' would make for some interesting times.

Sorry to hear about this and good luck where ever you go to next. Edit : spelling

Congrats on the rebuild Partisan, keep moving forward Make sure IC keeps whipping the troops [quote name='Steve Buscemi' timestamp='1307601595' post='2727721'] You are missing your WRC count. Congrats nonetheless. [/quote] I checked it is 9 of 42 nations (21.4%), which is better than 18.4%

I particularly like this phrase All legal documents to back up your claim as my client's next-of-kin will be provided. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transaction through. They want your honest cooperation while forging documents for you. I would not go for this, let me introduce you to a man who knows a Nigerian prince, much more money there.

[quote name='feardaram' timestamp='1300374042' post='2667717'] It's not eternal if we could just get it over with. [/quote] The problem with this logic is that the only thing you are satisfied with is the destruction or complete removal of NPO (see your earlier post). So let us assume you achieve your aim and get your month of war, what stops this happening again and again every time NPO dares to start to rebuild. Your only aim is to perma war NPO, the only slight difference in your version of PW is you pretend that peace is achieved then just up and declare again when ever you fancy for no reason. I see absolutely no reason why anyone should begin to believe you or anybody else in your alliance when you have continually stated your aim of destroying the NPO. Come out for a month and then you can peace out, honest its the truth. You will of course reserve the right to change your mind at a minutes notice either once PM has been exited or a nano second after the month has ended.

I have not read the entire thread so i apologise if this has been asked and answered before, should Pacifica decide to accept this 'offer' of 1 month of total war is it the forces that are currently arrayed or will others join your side, as surrending alliances from the VE front are not able to enter on NPO's side? Also what of Pacificas allies in this who are also fighting?

[quote name='AlmightyGrub' timestamp='1297259326' post='2626915'] I am interested in this assertion, often quoted as a fact, that the Orders must change. Why? Explain please why the alliances that actually give the world actual balance would go changing anything. I am intrigued by the notion that nothing is happening, therefore we need something to happen coupled with Orders doing things that make things happen adding up to a bad thing. I literally shake my head when people whine about me attacking \m/ causing all sorts of issues across the treaty web. You simply don't know what you want or are too dense to see it when it is presented to you. Hardly so very surprising. Some of you can not see what is plainly in front of you, it is largely the reason OOC I think most of you are a little wet behind the ears /OOC. I can not see Polaris changing to be bottom feeding scum suckers to fit in better with your version of how the world looks. We are what we are, both to spite you and in spite of you and we wont be anything but Polaris no matter how many times you go to the same dry old well. You love to hate us, all that love has to be a good thing? [/quote] I totaly agree, why should the orders change, the same as why should MK, FAN or anybody else change, if every alliance is BFF's with every other the sheer weight of boredom will kill everyone. The mere fact people do not like each other is why things are even midly entertaining. Having somebody to rail against be it NpPO or MK et al is the best way for the world to operate. Much the same as these calls from people of all sides for disbandments etc are also ludicrous. If one side disappears what dynamic is left in the world, conformity of thought is not the answer.

Congratulations guys, i am happy to see this.

[quote name='Owned-You' timestamp='1295993381' post='2601010'] [font="Tahoma"]I'm not talking about particular alliances or alliances in general but rather individual nations. It's a reason among many others why your alliance it so large. Why, I myself am merely a sheep in the Greater Doomhouse flock. We are all but sheep.[/font] [font="Tahoma"] [/font] [font="Tahoma"]In the context that I'm using it, killing the baby is destroying your home while it's still in it's infancy. You hadn't blossomed to pose an outright threat to us yet, but still the potential remained.[/font] [/quote] I thank you for the clarification, i have been known to 'wool' myself up on occassions but that is usually for my own amusement at the weekends. However i do agree with the general principle that people will flock together and will migrate (wrong word as sheep are not migratory) to areas or spheres of influence. Whoever is the best shepherd at the time will command the greatest flock. Or which shepherd will protect the flock from the wolves. I think that is enough about sheep so i will leave it there.

[quote name='Fallen Fool' timestamp='1296030635' post='2602440'] You misspelled honor in the original post and because of that I disown you and your teachings. [/quote] I have had a look at the op and it is spelt honour, so you are actually the incorrect one, it is spelt the way of the English in English and as all know the English are truly Gods own children so the church should spell it this way.

[quote name='Chief Savage Man' timestamp='1296045200' post='2602585'] No doubt certain elements of Karma believed strongly in the principles it represented but large sections of the Karma coalition (myself included) rolled with the rhetoric because it meant the end of the NPO as the dominant force who was strangling the life out of CN. [/quote] So NPO was dominant and strangled the life out of CN, now by doing nothing and not being dominant NPO is stangling the life out of CN and must be destroyed. Once you have finished with your destruction and NPO is not stangling the life by being dominant or not dominant(or perhaps by being even less not dominant will need to be rolled again), what next for you as the big bad enemy will have gone again, whose next? Who are the next ones that are strangling the life out of CN.

[quote name='Owned-You' timestamp='1295991152' post='2600929'] [font="Tahoma"]In my opinion, this beat-down has less to do with their past (it certainly made it easier for us though) and more to do with the threat they'd mount in the future. Simply because the NPO is one of the few competent alliances on the other side that could amass some strength to be an annoyance down the road. Most sheep flock over to the largest personalities and egos, enamored by bravado. NPO have plenty of personalities, egos, and bravado and will given time amass enough bodies to throw at the feet of our Doom House. Rather then allow them to grow into that future, we've opted to kill the baby in the cradle.[/font] [/quote] Are you suggesting or perhaps even outright stating that the alliances that follow you are sheep? If so which ones in particular? Or do sheep only follow NPO. Could you also define what killing the baby is?

[quote name='Vespassianus' timestamp='1295949972' post='2599772'] If you and Legion wouldn't be cowards the war should have happened days ago. [/quote] So i am assuming that up until todays gross hypocrisy, following your logic that MK were also cowards for not entering before?

MK the pillar of light and truth that Karma was built around, turns out that pillar was just highly polished bu*****t
