G/l have fun Kashmir. Somebody defend SUN. Please. We're bored over here.

I mean yes but if an alliance feels the need to respond to DBDC attacks (and lets face it, any alliance with dignity would) this is probably their best way to do it.

I was wondering how long it would take for people to start targeting tech suppliers.

This is accurate. We all know this war was coming; SNX just made the mistake that allowed it to happen. I would kill to see this. Also, good post. Anyways, good luck NPO, we're not allied anymore but I still have a soft spot for you guys.

Good luck have fun all, I'm sure the rest of us will be joining you shortly.

I blame Rey.

We're still here, against all odds. Go us.

I only spoke with Tito a couple times in my time here, but he seemed like a decent guy. Fucking awful that happened to him, my thoughts go out to his friends and family.

Honestly my first reaction to this was "eww I'm on the same side as GOD" but it's been so long that it's silly to keep holding the grudge. So, good luck. You're probably going to get piled on for this, but you knew that. Can't say you ever lacked guts.

Took long enough. Good to see.

No, NSO is pretty happy and grateful to Kashmir for their help.

no this is an impossible request

6 hours. Longer than expected.

You know, if this thread had been started by anyone else it might have actually been an interesting discussion.

tl;dr everyone arguing over stupid shit while waiting for IRON to make a(nother) decision

This thread is really awful and everyone who has posted in or read it, myself including, is worse off for it. If you're going to do a "worst of" listing, list people who actually deserve it not people you dislike. IRON does not have the worst diplo team, NoR is not the worst military alliance, GOONS are not the worst military alliance, Rayvon does not have the worst sig. Etc etc. Worst Alliance of the Year: LoSS Worst Military of the Year: MHA Worst Bloc of the Year: None really. Worst Flag of the Year: None come to mind. Most Inactive Large Alliance: MHA Worst Diplomatic Team: Haven't seen anyone truly awful. Worst Propagandist: Warfury or whatever his name is in Polar. Alliance Most Likely to Fail in 2014: Worst Player of the Year: Rotavele Worst Alliance Leader: Moufassa Worst Player Sig: None come to mind. Worst Poster: Warfury, again. Player Most Likely to Screw Things Up in 2014: Tywin. Role playing an arrogant douche while actually being an arrogant douche? Not a recipe for success. Worst Treaty of the Year: Was TPF-Fark this year? Loser of The Year: Probably NSO/NG/NPO. Horribly outplayed. Worst Theme used in 2013: None come to mind.

You're in an alliance with more than 2x our NS at the start of this, and have done less than 200k more damage. So... Oh, and something that I've gotten from all this is that you all need to grow a fucking pair, and pick your goddamn sides. I mean ffs. TOP aren't my favorites, but they don't do this wishy-washy bullshit that I'm seeing from so many people in this thread. If half of you had your way I'd be surprised if we had a war once every 4 years.

At a certain point our side runs out of nukes though, that's when the damage totals will start to really shift.

It was exaggeration. Maybe I should have picked a slightly larger number to use so that was clearer.

Oh, well if you assure me I'll just ignore all logic and common sense and believe you :rolleyes: Yeah man, we've never been rolled 18 times before and rebuilt stronger, man I must have imagined all that!

It really isn't a conspiracy, it's a move from the playbook that's as old as CN itself: hit the less connected ally because you can't go right for the better connected one. In this case, go for NSO because you can't hit NG or NPO. We've got no doubt you wanted us too, but we're not the real threat here. If we were, VE would have been disbanded three times over years ago. No one needs to be "complicit" in this conspiracy as you imply, they'll follow their chains and fight for the side they'll fight for because people have been planning for this war forever now. It wasn't a surprise, they were ready to go.

Wait people actually use blogs?

Other than the fact that most of that isn't true (except the last part, that's accurate), definitely, whatever you say.

Almost!

What's hilarious about all the Polar's posting "herpa derp gotta go all out in coalition warfare, no consideration for the other side, gotta make sure everyone on our side is protected" etc etc, is that they're completely ignoring the Sparta front out of fear of drawing R&R in.
