  1. [quote name='Rush Sykes' timestamp='1308642831' post='2737037']So because their protectorate decided to act like idiots after being told(like they should have been), you decided that that is good reason to totally eschew diplomacy this time? Are you kidding me? Here is a protip for you... when someone doesnt like you, they generally talk smack about you, and sometimes, in those situations, perceptions and emotion lead to bad conclusions. That happening in the past, does not, in any way, excuse you from nil attempt at diplomacy on what most certainly is an iffy issue at best.[/quote]
    We had every reason to believe (through past experience) that talking to IAA would do nothing other than alert NsO to our plans and allow them to escape to peace mode, thus denying our ability to combat them effectively. As we have seen, NsO indeed had begun to hit peacemode when they found out (thus our earlier-than-expected declaration of war).

    IAA have not shown the ability nor the willingness to rein in the actions of their protectorate at any time before now. Why would this have changed?

    No point going to war or even having a defensive military if they're not going to fight, once its over people can pick up the pieces as they remember how it went. Whether upon reflection they did good or bad will be effort put forward under whatever circumstances they needed to fight.

    Stand and fight or be a punching bag forever... hm, I think we did alright. :awesome:

  3. [quote name='Tohru' timestamp='1308641060' post='2737014']Not to mention, there's only a couple nations I want to burn. Rest of SOS I don't really want any harm to come to.[/quote]
    Pity you'll never be in range of either of them. I would have liked to have the opportunity to nuke you. :awesome:

    Good luck to SOS Brigade in their war effort, hopefully this war comes to a conclusion without to much blood shed. Good luck to New Sakura Order as well, enjoy the war while it lasts and launch some nukes if you have them.

    So in other words, 'smoke if you got 'em'?

    Will do. :nuke:

    Uh, if Mio didn't give approval for it to be an April Fool's Joke, why did Mio post [url=http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=83498]this[/url]? Also, refer to OP and to who is in-charge of said joke. I think that's more than enough consent and is Mio going to deny posting that? Even with the truth right in front of you, you probably still won't believe it.

    Ouch. Want some nukes for that [b][color=red]BURN[/color][/b], Tohru? Oh wait, you're cowering in peace mode. :awesome:

    Pretty much, some people over there like to act like NsO was first an April Fools' joke made by them, when really it was first thought up by Katsumi/Mio, who as far as I've found out, never gave consent for her idea to become an April Fool's joke.
    [/quote]
    Except the part where she was Empress of the 'joke' alliance, yeah okay I buy that. :v:

    At some point people are going to have to stop the chaining nonsense. Now would be a perfect time. For God sake's its two anime alliances fighting each other. You can't get anymore weaker than that. People should refuse to participate on principal alone.
    [/quote]
    For the record, the New Sakura Order may be populated by people who are largely anime fans, but they are [b]not[/b] an anime alliance.

    ...

    They're an April Fools' Day joke gone mad.

    Someone in IAA told their protectorate about a discussion you had with IAA about their protectorate??? FOR SHAME IAA! WHAT WERE YOU THINKIN! communicating with your protectorate is unacceptable and uncalled for!
    [/quote]
    You missed the part where their protectorate proceeded to accuse of something that we absolutely did not do, possibly because of what IAA told them (or else because they just decided to accuse us of doing it for their own reasons).

  9. [quote name='Hereno' timestamp='1308636367' post='2736935']So you didn't even try keeping your allies out of this ridiculous situation because... people who hate you weren't nice to you the last time you spoke with them?[/quote]
    More like because someone in IAA leaked the discussion to NsO and "asking IAA to talk to their protectorate about wayward behavior of their members" somehow turned into NsO accusing us of "trying to get their allies to drop them".

    Nice try though.

  10. [quote name='Rebel Virginia' timestamp='1308635748' post='2736920'][color="#0000FF"]Well, you're members have been kind enough to share with us several propaganda images for the war. Surely those did not appear from thin air? So I must beg, where did you find the time to make all this and how were you so strained for time that you could not speak with NsO's protector? Answer honestly. I'll know if you're lying.[/color][/quote]
    Again, where did you hear that time constraints where why we didn't talk to IAA? [b]This is plainly incorrect[/b].

    We didn't talk to IAA because of the reception we got from them and their wayward protectorate the [b]last[/b] time we had to talk to them about NsO.

  11. [quote name='Aeros' timestamp='1308635370' post='2736908']
    Has anyone else noticed that SOS has no time to talk to IAA about this, but they clearly had time to do some photoshopping for war time propaganda?
    [/quote]
    Where did you hear that that was why we didn't talk to IAA?

  12. [quote name='LittleRena' timestamp='1308634797' post='2736883']How about tell everybody why it didn't happen?[/quote]
    Because that would be rather disrespectful to certain alliances who shall remain unnamed and may even result in warning shots from God being fired across our bows.

    [quote name='Katy Perry' timestamp='1308634799' post='2736884']Won't happen though. Someone has an agenda going on, which is a real shame, because I very much doubt SOS has the stomach to battle it out on its own against NsO.[/quote]
    Oh I assure you, we do. Whether it ends up that way is something else entirely.

  13. [quote name='ShouAS' timestamp='1308632583' post='2736790']OOC: The link in question is a multination report, so it looks like this war is about TOS stuff[/quote]
    This is (partly) about someone (from NsO) attempting to infiltrate the SOS Brigade's internal areas to spy. That is an act of war.

  14. [quote name='General Anderan' timestamp='1308631882' post='2736768']
    Its amusing that two people voluntarily leaving an alliance due to disagreements with the leader of the alliance is considered poaching.
    [/quote]
    Actually it was one person, and when the "disagreement" in question was "I don't want to buy nukes", only to have said nation buy nukes shortly after joining their new alliance (which a gov member of specifically indicated he intended to poach) yes, it is poaching.

    But I wouldn't expect any less than blatant fallacy and spin from a member of the attacked alliance.

  15. [quote name='Heft' timestamp='1307696799' post='2728518']Although, the notion that SF, of all groups, was afraid of the "old" hegemony is kind of entertaining.[/quote]
    Oh they were.
    You'd be surprised at how many of the nominally Karma-aligned alliances were [s]afraid[/s][b]paranoid[/b] that the big bad NPO would be coming back to EZI them all.

    Also, the OP is spot on. CnG and SF were never a cohesive hegemony, more regents for the power that was to come.
