  1. I first played TE in Round 5 as a member of The Phoenix Federation Sometime later (not sure of the Round/Year) I moved to The Ozland Cobras soon after they were founded. Shortly after, TPC and TOC merged to form The Phoenix Cobras, and TPC has been my TE home ever since. Alas, RL is currently such that I don`t have the time to play TE this round and perhaps forever (I`m even late posting here). Many TPC members are in the same boat, and I observe the end of The Phoenix Cobras with great regret and sadness. My thanks to those who made the past 35 rounds so enjoyable, from both sides of the battle field. I`ve made many friends in and out of TPC. There are far too many people to mention by name, including those I have shared government with, so let me just close by thanking the great leaders I have had the honour to serve under: Burning Glory The Wizard of OZ Kegkiller (Dogbite) King James XVIII Long live The Phoenix Cobras !
  2. The Dark Order, New Desolate Order, Krabz, The Phoenix Cobras, Ordo Paradoxia and the Misfits have all agreed to peace at update, when the first wars expire. We assume Citadel is on board as well, but we have not heard back I can't speak for everyone, but I think everyone in TPC had a lot of fun with this war, and I hope everyone else did too. o/ to all opponents for a good, fair and especially civil war. o/ friends through hostility :D
  3. Maybe you should tell you own people about this :mad:
  4. 50% here as well Anyone got insight into the new "sweet spot"?
  5. Hades responded quickly and decisively to the fact that a single NDO member did not follow orders. That has happened with individual TPC members in the past so I certainly do not hold either an entire AA or its leader responsible for such people or their actions. As one of those nuked (2x) I am totally satisfied with how this has been handled by Hades and NDO. It's that kind of honourable leadership that keeps me coming back to TE. o/ NDO o/ TPC o/ (non nuclear) war, at least for this time
  6. Somebody did not get the memo: http://tournament.cybernations.net/stats_news.asp?Search=The%20Phoenix%20Cobras&SearchBy=Nation_Alliance 3 NDO nukes landed vs. 0 TPC nukes launched
  7. Another great one. Good warriors on both sides meant lots of fun o/ TDO o/ TPC
  8. I don't usually post on OWF, but I have to this time in order to echo Das' sentiment. This was a great war, and not just because TPC seemed to be winning. If you check the alliance charts we're actually pretty close to even on total NS lost. I've always said The Avengers could fight and you proved that once again. Even though your back was up against it, you folks kept hitting back, never giving up. My deep respect for your abilities has grown deeper. A special shout out for the regular masterful coordination by Logan X, DevilDog, Randy Rhodes and Thor. There's nothing like logging in to find a page or more of PMs and realize that they had beat me down some more with simultaneous attacks. Except maybe being online and not being able to do much to defend against their barrage of incoming attacks of all types, one after another after another. Great teamwork! It was an honour to face you four on the battlefield. With Das, I'm sure we'll face each other again, but I'd also like to surprise everybody (including ourselves) someday and fight side by side o/ The Avengers o/ TPC
  9. Just to be sure, which is lat and which is lon
  10. In other words, you're down declaring but will add in some others after you beat down TPC in order to pretend that it's even
  11. We talked him out of it before but it's not working this time. It has a been an honour to serve in TPC gov under King James XVIII's leadership. He has been a great King, who dedicated himself to TPC, and in so doing has improved TE along the way. Hail to the King!!!
  12. Good to see you again James, even on opposites of the battlefield.
  13. Well that was fun A shout out to Black Rose, Dark Zone Elite and TheBOOM. They coordinated extremely well and kept me jumping. Thanks for a good war. Happy rebuilding to everyone on all sides o/ TPC o/Citadel
  14. Good to know the probable restart date. And I like the proposed changes itemized on the link. Thanks so much!!
  15. Jonboy is back!!! A great day for all of TE. Welcome back brother
  16. I do not speak for my alliance, King James XVIII does, but I'm not sure how we went from [quote name='HDSupreme' timestamp='1356297301' post='3067405'] I'D advice noble King Alexandros O Megas to take this as "The Will of the People" and proclaim it...! [/quote] to this in the very next post [quote name='KillerCruiser' timestamp='1356304860' post='3067446'] So no holiday ceasefire this time around... This might make things a little interesting [/quote] It seemed to me that the trend of this thread was for a holiday truce, although without any clear consensus yet as to how long, but that's a far cry from no truce at all. Personally, I'd include New Years due to the nature of the season but that is negotiable by the citizens of this planet
  17. [quote name='Scooby Doo' timestamp='1351918722' post='3047926'] Troll? Yea, my 58 Posts over 3 years equals trolling. I'm just calling it as it is. [u][b]Lets look at your tough wars.[/b][/u] Two of the Nations you declared upon had 1,500 and 1,000 less infra when you DOWNDECLARED upon them. They have taken, wisely the tactic of turtling, as being that far behind from the beginning, they mine as well have 300 Infra. As far as their Nukes, I'm sure you guys are in some type of uneasy truce, where they don't nuke you and you don't nuke them. Aquamarine has 0 nukes and no way to puchase one, having moved into the 5% the day before TPC's bogus war begun. (This likely triggered the true war, as [u][b]3[/b][/u] [u]TPC top nations declared upon him simultaneously[/u]). So on the 29th King J of Quest, valiantly declared on you and is likely the only Nation dropping Nukes on you. And his 179 Tech must be doing horrible damage to you. In return- The Combined four TPC Superpowers have beat him down from 2500 Infra to 350. But I'm sure that isn't far enough for TPC, who will retaliate against again tomorrow for his slol attempt at someone, anyone trying to knock the TPC bullies down. [b]Kudos to King J for trying.[/b] Lets not forget about Keyzer Soze from Death before Dishonor who declared on 3 superpowers, got knocked down from 2300 Infra to 800. He looks like he may be turtling or hasn't re-bought. [u]Either way. he is sitting on 19 Nukes. I'm assuming he isn't dropping 3 a day[/u]..... So I'll stand by these Facts: #2 Nation in the game, cherry picked his targets. None are able to retaliate in any type of coordinated fashion. Keyzer Soze, tried to put up a fight somehow being able to declare on bibliotech, though he was 1700 infra[b] BELOW[/b] bibliotech. So, yes, I think I am following the correct game. In respect to you, none is earned, unless you get points for picking Nations that really never had a chance. [b]Keep up the Fight King J![/b] We can only hope that someone of equal Infra and Nukes steps up to fill his empty slot and the soon to be empty 2 turtle slots. [/quote] Perhaps I misused the word “troll.” I meant it as “personal attack.” If that was incorrect OWF parlance my apologies. Nonetheless, the only point in my post was that you said that I had “avoided . . . any kind of anarchy” when the [b]fact [/b]was that I had been in anarchy for 4 days. You now say “I'm just calling it as it is.” Well you called that wrong, [i]well after the fact[/i], and your lengthy response about other matters does not change that. Additional facts for the record: Lorlax, Aquamarine and Tsar Kalashnikov are the ones who nuked me, in that order. I checked our comparative charts, which show that the last two actually had higher NS on Oct. 28th, the day I declared (my own obsessive records show that I was #4 overall shortly after update that day), so any difference must come from me militarizing shortly before going to war. If post-militarizing strength is a down declare, many more than me are guilty of that, in this round and many previous. Tsar Kalashnikov was afk until yesterday, at which point he nuked me (and E). I stopped all attacks (Air, CMs, Nukes, Navy, Spies; GAs were not even possible due to his lack of soldiers) vs. Lorlax as soon as he asked for peace just after update on Oct 31st. What a bully I am! I welcomed King J’s and Keyzer Soze’s entrance into the fray, hoping for additional good fights. I responded with minimal coordination with other TPCers. King fought for 2 days, Keyzer for one, after which neither rebuilt, sent CMs, etc. Since neither rebought troops, after that GAs were not possible, so I only did Air runs and CMs. Are you suggesting I shouldn’t defend myself against attackers, or let them lurk until they chose to respond in force? Should I have turtled? As for their non-coordination, I have frequently coordinated with people in other AAs when fighting a common enemy. The fact that my opponents did not does not mean that, in your words, “None are able to retaliate in any type of coordinated fashion.” Most TE players know that nations working together can take down, or at least hold their own, against a bigger opponent if they work together, especially if they have nukes, which these people have in large numbers (as of now: Lorlax: 18; The Forge: 18; King J: 14; Keyzer Soze: 19). If they did not reach out to the others to coordinate, that’s on them, not me.
  18. [quote name='Scooby Doo' timestamp='1351900036' post='3047807'] Somehow the following TPC nations in their “War on Everyone” miraculously avoided any type of anarchy. Strange for an alliance that went to war because they didn’t want to grow out of range of other alliances. bibliotech [url="http://tournament.cybernations.net/nation_drill_display.asp?Nation_ID=1000209"]http://tournament.cy...tion_ID=1000209[/url] [/quote] I do not usually respond to OWF trolls, but I make an exception here to correct a flagrantly erroneous claim Not sure which game you're following, but in this one I have 5 wars at the moment and have been in anarchy since getting nuked right after update on the 30th (as soon as the rules allow), which has been extended by follow-up nukes on the 31st and again today (Nov. 2nd). This is clear from the nuclear attacks page ingame. So, apart from the fact that others put someone into anarchy not the player (i.e., me), such that if I "avoid" anarchy that is my opponents' fault, not mine, the truth is that, contrary to your assertion, I am currently in my [b][i]fourth[/i][/b] day of "any kind of anarchy," and specifically nuke anarchy, and will be for at least 3 more days and probably more since I continue to face opponents with many, many nukes each. Those are the [b]facts[/b] with respect to me, not what you posted above.
  19. Excellent DoW and excellent development. Have fun all!!!
  20. [quote name='commander thrawn' timestamp='1341643215' post='3005681'] How did I attack you more times than is allowed in 2 days? But really, with double my infra you still lost 4000 NS since 11:40. [/quote] My mistake Thrawn. GA totals corrected: Offensive GAs against Commander Thrawn: 4 victories Defensive GAs against Commander Thrawn: 2 victories, 2 defeats Plus full disclosure: in one of your "defeats" (as called by the game) you did take land and tech, plus destroyed infra, but left cash behind [b]Additional attacks:[/b] There's no defense against CMs. They do the damage that they do. [i]Air Attacks by Commander Thrawn:[/i] In the attack you lost 0 defending tanks, 0 cruise missiles, and 0.00 infrastructure. You destroyed 1 attacking bombers. You lost 4 fighter aircraft and destroyed 46 fighter aircraft launched by Commander Thrawn In the attack you lost 0 defending tanks, 0 cruise missiles, and 0.00 infrastructure. You destroyed 1 attacking bombers. You lost 6 fighter aircraft and destroyed 32 fighter aircraft launched by Commander Thrawn. In the attack you lost 0 defending tanks, 0 cruise missiles, and 0.00 infrastructure. You destroyed 1 attacking bombers. You lost 6 fighter aircraft and destroyed 63 fighter aircraft launched by Commander Thrawn. In the attack you lost 52 defending tanks, 0 cruise missiles, and 52.10 infrastructure. You destroyed 0 attacking bombers. You lost 1 fighter aircraft and destroyed 4 fighter aircraft launched by Commander Thrawn. [i]Naval Attacks by Bibliophile:[/i] In the attack you lost 2 navy vessels and destroyed 1 navy vessels operated by bibliophile. In the attack you lost 1 navy vessels and destroyed 1 navy vessels operated by bibliophile. In the attack you lost 2 navy vessels and destroyed 1 navy vessels operated by bibliophile. = 5 lost vs. 3 destroyed [i]Bibliophile's NS[/i]: down 4000 against 3 opponents [i]Commander Thrawn's NS[/i]: down 2200 against 2 (active) opponents Once again, you could define "Not very well" with respect to my warring ability. Of course all those stats will change once nukes start to fly. So instead of hurling numbers at each other, we could just have fun in a [i]game[/i], blowing up some pixels in defence of our treaty partners.
  21. [quote name='commander thrawn' timestamp='1341641931' post='3005670'] Not very well it seems. [/quote] Offensive GAs against Commander Thrawn: 4 victories Defensive GAs against Commander Thrawn: 4 victories, 2 defeats Define "Not very well" Lets have fun out there
  22. Wait, how does one war in SE? Oh, I remember. o/TSI
