Ardus

I measure by Pacifica, not the Sith. I declared the night NPO entered and my first round of wars does not end until tonight's update.

We're still in the first round of wars, Hereno. But do keep trying.

That is enough, Crymson. Cool your jets.

Sparta stock on the rise

Somebody call the global revolutionaries it's time

nbd I got this on lockdown

vine is a cancer and it must be eradicated

poor kaskus, poor dumb kaskus give 'em hell cacti

Hold fast, Spartans. Smash 'em.

You done goofed

I am the moral high ground. There--now that's some goddamn ego.

Rush. Boopie. Remember the last time you tried to force a phrase after midnight? I think there are still sigs floating around of pink elephants.

I like that signing two treaties and declining to join the "roll polar" bandwagon makes us the devil. We reach out to people instead of slinging mud and missiles at them for a third or fourth year running and it means our "ego and confidence have exploded."

If I put in any less effort into some of these posts I'd try to log in only to find my nation wiped from existence.

Change is good.

Yes, once we've completed destruction of our present enemies we're going to betray all of our present allies in favor of... a chicken sandwich, stolen directly from their plates.

Coalition was already there. I just churned out some paper and then kicked back to wait for fireworks. I do enjoy the attention, though

Godspeed Legion!

I maintain my dedicated campaign for Order upon Order, if only because the abbreviation is better and inherently less confusing than Order on Order.

MI6 responds forcefully and with great haste. Agents in the field must be doing their job well. Thank you for your declaration.

First time in a very long time I have gone out to battle alongside Sparta. I am looking forward to it :)

Order upon Order upon Order upon Order. Thank you, Dajobo.

You flatter me. Onward Palmettia. Onward Paradoxia. Destroy them.

I wish to win all peoples to the glorious Ardus banner.

The battle proper hasn't even begun. I have learned over the course of years, the hard way, that historical precedent has some hard limits in its applicability to how alliances wage wars. I've seen groups I expected to excel flounder; I've seen groups I expected to suck turn in virtuoso performances. I've had friends disappoint me and enemies impress me. Given the alignment of nations and frustrations, I do not believe the conclusions you draw from Grudge and Dave are accurate or applicable. Of course, I find myself at an unfortunate disadvantage here. I can't crush you with facts because to do so would be a terrible breach of operational security. I never noticed such a trend from my spot in MK during those wars. We were generally pleased and extremely grateful for TOP's military performance. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the posts from after the war where we analyzed losses. I only recall from most to least it went something like SF/XX/NpO--MJ--PF--DH--PB. Hearing "TOP DIDN'T FIGHT HARD ENOUGH" about Grudge is therefore really amusing to me, because from my seat in that war they paid more than did my little locality. That's good and fine, but it doesn't dissolve the fact that you benefitted at the expense of others, though I can empathize with the fact that it was due to details outside your control. In any event NATO troops provided much needed financial support in between rounds with Liz :P Given you continue to insist that you are proven right before any conclusions can be made, I don't think you're really committed to "agreeing to disagree."
