    Well played, well played.

     

    Thank you. I like your avatar.

     

    As for the dispute in question, evey time I've had to sign non-victory papers, I generally have prefered to refer to it as "...being forced from the field." I find the martial tone helps ease the pain of, y'know, losing.

     

    That said, congrats to the participants on peace again.

    Are we talking Irish white or Scandinavian white?

     

     

    That's up to the "mob" really, me I'd go with AliceBlue. :)

     

    Your wobbling relativism disgusts me. There's only one kind of white. It's the white kind. No other. If there is any sort of noun, verb, adverb, or adjective attempting to appropriate whiteness by proximity, implication, or suggested relation to the word white, it is a farce of imitation, as they are only those objects as they are, and the whiteness they so attempt to associate themselves with is its own catogory of color. Period.

  3. I have no dog in this fight. The back and forth is pretty amusing, and I see good points on both sides, however, this I have to address...

    The problem is literally that TOP takes their ball and goes home if the odds aren't crazy stacked in their favor.

    That's called using your political capital to insist to your allies the terms of your own engagement. You dictate the ground where you stand and fight- thus maximizing your successes and minimizing your losses. Perhaps not as glorius as a fullfrontal assualt, its pragmetisim can't be denied. While I won't say this about TOP in particular (though you might) some alliances are more blatently self-interested than others, and many won't even deny it. If one knows that and still treaties such an alliance, you can count on at least a token defense should you be losing, but a very powerful offense on your behalf if the tables are ever turned. (You just have to put up with their insistence to be involved in terms setting.)

     

    It might satisfy one's vanity, but you can't really expect an ally to throw themselves onto the fire for you if the outcome of defeat is already certain. Better to save them for next time when you have the upper hand. If there is no next time that invovles an upperhand, the allaince is incompent and deserves only token defense anyways.

     

    Just my 2 cents.

  4. The fact that some people still hate MK that badly that they need to call them worst alliance ever a year after they disbanded, just goes to prove how well MK succeeded. They did not only stay on top CN longer that pre Karma NPO; they also left a stronger legacy. 

     

    *Edit: Complete reading comprehension fail.

     

    Yeah, uh, I suppose so.

  5. Reading through all of this, i find that most of it is just crap. :facepalm:

     

    We had no plans to surrender, doom squad offered the peace to us.  

     

    We talked with Sparta, and they agreed to have us exit.

     

    White Peace definition: " in Cyber Nations this term is commonly used when an alliance doesn't admit defeat thereby it doesn't "surrender" since there is no admition of defeat. Despite there being no admition of defeat in a White Peace, a "no re-entry" clause is usually imposed upon the alliance receiving the White Peace; where they cannot rejoin the war they are leaving. "

     

    Doom Squad did excellent, they are a strong militarized alliance.

     

    Fellowship fought strong as well, and most I talked with seem like good people.

     

    For our first alliance war, having mostly small new nations, no war chests, and only one nuclear nation, all my wolves did great. :gun:

     

    We all learned a lot, and for the next war we will all be ready.

     

    We are glad we did what we did, and would do it again. :popcorn:

     

    Alpha Wolves!

     

    Sparta!

     

    Russian Czar

     

    A respectable post. A first war is a great test of the mettle of your membership.
