    I thought about adding one in just for the lolggaers, but then decided against it. I didn't want to make what for my alliance is a very special occasion into a joke.

    I can respect that, I just have difficulty refraining from adding humor where it's not appropriate.

    Zara, I thought you were my bestest friend in UCN :(

    According to Duncan King's Guide to Alliance Creation, 5 people is an alliance, which is the number of people that switched their AA, we have more.

    Also, I tried to get someone to fill in for me, but no one offered.So after you impeached me for inactivity, I left figuring you didn't need me.

    Since when is Duncan King some sort of authority on constituting what an alliance is?

    Hmmm, Buffalo Niagara didn't use itallics at all in his post and the issue is not as pronounced in Chrome. I'll forward this to the big cheeses.

    I think the post before his is what did it. He uses italics toward the end of the post, and Buffalo's nick is italicized after it.

    If Simon genuinely feels betrayed and angry, I can understand his remark. I don't agree but here's the truth of it, Tom: people lash out when they're hurt - it's a normal human reaction to pain.

    As long as they're willing to own up to them. Being angry isn't a free pass to be a tool.

    Its worth is to see /m\embers run around like headless chickens trying to backtrack on their lies.

    I know you love us so very much, but the attention you're giving us is bordering creepiness.

    What does that even mean?

    Just because people have surrendered individually in GOONS/Vox/FAN doesn't have any relevance to \m/ lieing in their OP here. BAPS had some individual surrenders during our pZI, that information is irrelevant to this discussion. Once you guys realise we don't give a monkeys that you offered terms you can address the problem with the lies and spin in the OP.
    [/quote]
    You've kind of beaten the notion you don't want the terms to death. Along the way, none of you picked up that we quite frankly don't care.

    So according to you, if I state that every member of \m/ except their high leadership wants out of this war now because they are getting sorely beat, this is not a lie?

    Okay perhaps I'll start spreading the word.

    Sorely beaten? Thanks, I was looking for a good laugh and you delivered. :lol1:

    Aye but you tarred BAPS name by mentioning us, noone in BAPS would individually surrender, we at BAPS know that, and we at BAPS know noone asked for terms or mentioned wanting to surrender. Thats why we have a problem with this announcement.
    [/quote]
    BAPS was mentioned in order to make it known that the terms were also offered to your nations. If you have a problem with us merely offering terms as a courtesy, then you could have collectively told our high command instead of displaying poor behavior here over it.

    Which means of course if these 'fringe' members that you seem to be implying exist of quantities greater than one actually exist, and they care at all about the "core" members and all that the core members have done for them by welcoming them into our collective brother/sisterhood in arms, they will stay with us, even unto the bitter end. Because ultimately, we will have their back in a way that no one else will. Whether that is on the battlefield now, or after the war as we grow together again in peace.
    [/quote]
    To be perfectly honest, I thought the most we would get is three. The one who surrendered was not the one who I thought would, but I think the one I originally thought would surrender hasn't been paying attention lately. But as fare as core members, no, I wouldn't expect any unless they were destroyed to the point of incapability, and even then surrender would be a long shot.

    It's obvious. I honestly have no clue how you could miss it.

    Perhaps not all of your nations are up to the task of fighting this war forever? That is what the terms are for: those who are unable or unwilling need not fight if they cannot or do not wish to. One of your nations was being hammered, didn't seem to be getting aid, and surrendered because they felt like Valhalla had left them out to dry. I don't believe that's the case, as I doubt he was the highest priority to receive aid. Perhaps your core members are in this for the long haul, but not every single member of Valhalla is. Perhaps they'll take these terms, as one did. This frees up slots to further attack the members that matter.

    This is the "Valhallan" that you took prisoner. :lol1: Just fyi he has posted his resignation on our boards. Hes your problem now.

    If these are the kind of surrenders you are looking for I have to thank you. It helps us clean out the weak links :smug:

    [quote name='Alterego']The public humilation of a PoW is a low and vile thing to do just so you could get one up on people who made you admit to your initial lies. This is utterly pathetic...[/quote]

    He will be coming by shortly to chastise you as well, you monster! :awesome:
