The \m/bola (my favorite name for the \M//Polar conflict) war found your alliance pretty much along against your opponents.Have steps been taken to shore up this hazard.

What Gre fails to understand is most of the nations of Digiterra read the codex too. Most found that Gre's newest interpretation of their own Codex semantic sophistry.You have already violated the Codex by you present demand.

[quote name='Golan 1st' date='22 May 2010 - 03:51 AM' timestamp='1274518250' post='2307862'] I naturally want Gramlins to lose this war. However, and now I am dead serious and write without irony, I am not happy at all with what happened to the once respectable Gramlins, an alliance which was an example to others and set new standards in this world. [/quote] If they persist with their goal, I wish them to lose. For myself, they and Iron and Dawn could just walk away from each other. I think I speak correctly, Gre's defeat is not Iron's pursuit just defeating Gre's objective.

I am not one of those that will marginalize Vox's impact. When they gave up the chaos and then became organized their impact on the OWF became significant. The moral component of their makeup more significant than others. Without this moral stance they would just have been an enemy of the NPO without the resultant effect.

Glad this interference with an alliance economics has finally ended and NPO now has their complete sovereignty back. Good luck.

[/quote] Your correctly identified, I was clicking the one from where you were quoted. Sorry for the mix up.

Your link now points to Nuevo Cabezon.

You cannot judge relevance by numbers from the Vox example.Vox as a force for change did not chance the paradigm with large nations.They focused a laser beam on perceived wrongs of the Hegemony and changed the world with tiny nations.Do not discount, as NPO did, a voice from the wilderness.

Trying to correct spelling and thus double post.

I see that \m/ have taken a page from the Gre dictionary and now define tech raid differently than the rest of Digiterra.

Given the irrationally Gre has displayed, what if it was planned.All the upper members are long time players and may have reached the point they did not wish to play anymore. If that number was quite large, rather than disband the alliance the members chose an unorthodox method of leaving. Keeping Iron/Dawn engaged, delaying Iron/Dawn rep payments and just fading away until just a few are left under the AA and then disbanding. This is just speculation, yet it explains a lot. If true; they are laughing.

Peace proposals unaccompanied by a sworn covenant indicate a plot.- Sun Tsu From your semantic obfuscation we can discern there is more here than is being disclosed.Your continued sophistry with the language indicates a more insidious stink permeates all that GRE does now.

This was funny, successful puns need to illicit a groan not a laugh.

You won some victories, then assume you're some tactical genius. When VE gets through with you I hope they announce the final results with the same hubris you have now.

I love RV but I'm sure its a pale comparison to how RV loves RV.

The semantic sophistry from GRE has become a travesty to the English language and should stop, unless GRE wants the position of most laughable alliance.

I cannot believe that an alliance and their leaders are this irrational.There is something unseen here.It smells; and smelling I'm not swallowing.

[quote] name='Arthur Blair' date='25 April 2010 - 01:02 AM' timestamp='1272175334' post='2274021 ... You do realize that eternal means there is no "currently" or "for the time being"? There is only eternal. Forever. Infinite. You are eternally in war, or you are in war for the time being. You can not be both. [/quote] This is just absurd.A common practice was to mention EZ1; the E standing for eternal. No one used it to imagine it would exist even past the "heat death" of the Universe.What you are saying is you could be Z1 eternally or you or Z1 for the time being.I do not expect your great leap of Fallacies of Ambiguity will mitigate the feeling of those who suffered under EZ1. Nor is it applicable here.

I have often asked myself about my assessment of certain alliances with this in mind. [indent] Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance. Sun Tzu [/indent]

Cave ne ante ullas catapultas ambules.

MK leads a new Hegemony, they do not like being called that but it is true.Unlike the NPO lead Hegemony they brilliantly do not throw their friends to the wolves, even if that friend pulls the most asinine act ever conceived. You cannot fault them for learning the lesson of the former power, that cast aside friends wholesale for stupid actions with the resultant loss of power.

[quote name='Venizelos' date='20 April 2010 - 11:06 PM' timestamp='1271822764' post='2268757'] i hope you will always find someone's lap to comfortably lie on! [/quote] Venezelos, ever bitter that Iron would not promote him to a position he thought he deserved. Happy Birthday Iron.

I am guessing a unexpected treaty announcement with a more strict raid policy included.
