prove me wrong about WOLF. I want you to show me that it is not a cowardly bunch that needs to control the world to protect their infra and stand a chance of winning. I think it was pretty obvious thats what I wanted you to prove

How about proving me wrong instead of calling me names? Considering you are trying to claim the moral high ground I find it pathetic that all you've been able to do is call me names

I find it ironic that I did just that...

Umm... yeah. I finished top 10 last round. Nearly had it won until LE nuked me down. I have been in the top 100 with 1 week to go in every full round I've played. half of the time I've been top 20. All but once I've suicided, and came away 7th. I would gladly compare our records if you want to fight about who is the better player. I think its a little crude for somebody whose career is much less successful than mine to claim that I have "failed at this game". This round I've got alliance duties like fighting, so of course I'm not going to be the strongest I could've been. If I play next round to win, I could beat everyone in this bloc. I have strategy, you guys are trying to win with brute force. It takes no skill to do that. There is no justification for any bloc, especially one of this size. It's saying that everyone in the bloc could never win on their own wit, so they've got to surround themselves with a safety blanket. Really, I have yet to see anyone "justify" this. Tiberius is at least honest by saying the goals are selfish, the rest of you are either too delusional to realize or in denial about the real reasons this formed. I also try to be humorous. If you have failed to notice, I always have a very sarcastic nature. Please try to understand this in the future

Ironically I like the turnout on this one a lot more. Mine had fewer options, and it all depends on what side of WOLF you are on

So thats what this is?

It was pretty much the leftovers from the Judgement block that was formed the round before, MHA, RE, and GDA. The total was 600, including the few other alliances that jumped to our defense. Considering The Initiative bloc was twice as large, i'm not sure it was of much use. You don't even know where I am now. My TE identity is a secret.

Just how are they contradictory? I would love it if somebody could point that out. Both options can't be true, that doesnt matter, it's what people think will be true. Obviously everyone in WOLF is going to vote for the first bullets, while everyone outside is going to choose the seconds.

I didn't really think mine is all that biased. You tell me whats wrong with it.

Yeah, all your little pixel citizens will appreciate it

Dont like it? make your own poll. It will turn out the same either way.

thanks. silly mistake on my part.

Yeah, I was also on the 600 side. It wasnt really a clash of two blocs, it was one bloc with the majority of TE trying to destroy a group of 3 friends. I've been on the wrong side of all but one curbstomp, which was the one against MI in round 3. Wars are always more fun when the sides are relatively even. The intention of this is to make it nearly impossible for any opposition to rise up, hence why you arent telling us all the involved alliances. Power comes and goes. there is no way to solidify your position. You should be able to defend yourself without having to align most of the world behind you.

Let's see what everybody else thinks. I have this funny little feeling that more people are going to take my side. http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=65681

We shall see...

Totally agree. My way of saying it is just a bit more... blunt

umm... round 3 after TPF took a beating he vowed revenge against MHA for betraying him. I was pretty impressed that it actually happened. I'm sure we all remember the 1200 VS the 600. I still think he's a cool guy, and he's done a helluva lot better of a job at leading an alliance than I ever could. you say the goal is to "solidify our position"? I read that as "infra hugging". I've never said "we're screwed and all hope is lost", I just said it is pathetic it came to this and is going to make everything extremely boring for some time. Everybody know your intentions, but i'm the only one with the cajones to tell it like it is

Negative? Pshhh... I'm excited. I get to be a little prick trying to wreck everything WOLF is trying to accomplish. I think it will be great fun. It also appears that not everybody appreciates my sarcastic sense of humor. Everyone takes this game a little too seriously. Lighten up and just have some fun playing, win or lose. When there are no huge blocs the game is more fun because alliances are free to have 1 on 1 wars that dont end in curbstomps.

Meh, whatever... I checked a week or two ago and that wasnt the case. I'm too lazy to do it again. More than likely they only attacked nations much smaller than themselves to do just enough to take part in your war. I've got more important business to worry about. I'm not here to make friends. I don't care what you think. It's also slightly ironic that BG whines more than I do and goes off vowing his revenge and whatever when he is on the wrong end of a war. I havent suffered from this bloc yet. I'm just saying thats its intentions are pretty cowardly. If you had a pair yourself you would be out there without your treaties and safety net fending for yourself.

So then why are you building a nice little buffer with 1/3 of the NS in TE, maybe more, around yourself?

You really think the rest of us are just going to sit here while you r ape our women and plunder our villages?

I've also been beaten pretty badly near the end of each round for the past 5 rounds. It's nothing special. I'm pretty sure we ALL get pretty badly beaten near the end of each round.

greatest.comeback.ever. (I hope you detect a hint of sarcasm)

Welcome to the age of CN:Infra Edition! god... how boring. I might as well go play SE!

Ok, so I've played the infra hugging game trying to win before, but the level you guys (I'm looking at you WOLF) are taking it to is pathetic. Have we all forgotten that this is just supposed to be fun? How badly can you want that t-shirt? To all the smaller alliances that joined WOLF, can't you see you are just being used? Do you really think RE, TPF, or TF cares about you? You're the cannon fodder that protects their infra so they can get their shirts and all important flags. Oh, but right. I forgot, they'll protect you! Its a WAR GAME, for crying out loud! If you don't want to fight, you don't belong here. Besides, if you're an alliance with 30-40-50 members, you are going to be fighting an alliance of similar size. You shouldn't have to cry uncle and get one of the big boys to come rescue you. The only reason they would come to your aid anyway is its basically a big tech raid for them. A big 100-200 something alliance gets to go curbstomp an alliance less than half its size, and all under the noble banner of "protection"! It truly is a win-win, well, for those in the bloc. May I also add that the actions of the old RE/TPF/TF bloc were a little less than admirable? RE and TPF, do you really have to declare on alliances with 100 less members than your own to win a war? Pretty sad if you ask me. Props to TF, at least LE was of equal, actually slightly smaller size when you declared on them, but you ended up getting embarrassed because too many of your nations cared more about their infra. NeoGandalf, do me a favor and go look at the Tournament Winners screen for a sec. Hmm... i'm sitting there as the 12th biggest nation of all time. Where are you? No, really, after I looked down to 120th I gave up. I have great respect for you as a builder, and as builders go you are probably one of, if not the greatest I have seen, but that is not what wins this game. You need to be decent in order to win, but it is not everything. Strategy is much more important. I don't sunbathe in the limelight, nor or try to orchestrate the world. You don't need to, as long as you have more strategy than a half-eaten bowl of cereal. WOLF: enjoy your moment of glory, as soon there will be a New World Order... Oh, and don't mind me. I'm just being politically incorrect as usual.
