  6. Aqua lumber required to complete 3BR

    in Trading Harbor

    Posted

    We need an Aqua lumber nation to complete our 3BR (fast food, beer, construction + uranium) circle. It's been stable for months but a nation just died through inactivity.

    Second resource is less important but we don't want overlaps. Have a look at what we've got and if you have lumber + something else send me an in game message and I'll send you the nations.

  7. Nation BIO bug?

    I use my nation BIO to keep track of my tech deals. I've done this for a while but today when I tried to update it I got the following error message.

    I've C&P the text into a Word file to see if there were any hidden characters but it's all fine. I've also deleted it all and typed it from scratch but still no joy.

    Edit - idiot, I've just noticed the &

    I for one would like to congratulate thekirbyfake, of UOKMB, for deciding to raid a privateer of BTA (who allegedly scammed him 4 months back, even though that ship was not part of our fleet at that time).

    While being destroyed by the GOONS fleet, I guess the logical thing to do be further weaken ones own military by attempting to raid other nations at will?

    I'm not piracy, I'm thumping

    I'm thumping a scammer square on the nose. It's the kind of thump that makes your eyes water.

    BTA be harbouring a known scammer. I have asked BTA to expel the scammer but weirdly ye seem intent on protecting him.

    Has au202 told ye he's weakening me military? He's had 4 failed GA and left half of his warchest littering up me streets. I think he might have done a couple of CM. They tickled.

    Well KN tried to help UOKMB but they just basically told them to $%&@ off. Which was rather stupid on thar part

    Ignoring the gross affront to the English language for a second, how exactly did KN try to "help" us? They asked for some dubloons, I gave them some dubloons. They asked if we would sign a treaty, I laughed. be thar anything I've missed?[/size][/font]

    You guys were more than likely going to rogue on us anyway, so your point is moot.

    You were the top of a list, that much is true. Somebody in Umbrella tried to talk us out of it and he'd succeeded which moved you off the list entirely.

    Then brave [color=#1C2837][size=2]ktarthan decided to nuke one of us and ensure Goons became the list.[/size][/color]

    I read the title of this topic, and my first thought was "Funny, I just saw their NS graph and was thinking the exact opposite..."
    [/quote]

    You seem to think we care about our NS. We stated from the very beginning that our objective was to hurt Goons. One objective. One.

    As of this morning UOKMB has fired 121 successful nukes at Goons and allies.

    I can only speak for my own battles but I've taken 42,002 NS and lost 17,449.

    Interesting that you've finally appeared on a UOKMB thread, ktarthan, given it was you that bravely nuked a non-nuclear nation during a "raid" which effectively secured Goons as the target for the nukes.

    Threat Level: Severe
    Tax Rate: 30%
    Number of Spies: 300

    Pretty harsh talking a guy into joining a nuke fight with a few pennies to spare.

    You have no idea how angrily I was pressing that nuke button this morning. I think the n has worn off and it just says uke now.

    Let me see if I am gripping this right.

    UOKMB seems to have taken the view that GOONS initiated an act of war against them two months ago. They admittedly preferred a war of vengeance to seeking reps or an apology or both, which is now going exactly as GOONS and UOKMB have claimed to have wanted it to go, with GOONS and a handful of individual nations of their allies blasting UOKMB into oblivion (the expected blaze of glory) and UOKMB getting in their shots accordingly.

    The nuclear wash is in effect and when it's all over UOKMB gets rolled and GOONS gets nuked a little.

    I am personally struggling with the people who seem to want more blood than that, these so called "moralists". The people who look the most ridiculous here, in my opinion. The people saying "go get'em UOKMB cause as much damage as you can as you're taken out, we think you're totally right and we'd help you but we're not 100% sure we're THAT ready to stand up for what we so vehemently believe in. The day is coming when we will though!". I'm not going to go with the old "do something" cliche, but good lord crap or get off the pot there's a line forming.

    You know what? This man has it spot on. I'm going to come clean here a bit.

    I was getting bored on Planet Bob. I'd been involved in the last big war (as part of Iunctus) and it was fun. Lost half my strength in a week. Built it back up again. Paid bills, collected tax, repeat ad nauseum.

    I asked around if there were any wars going to happen soon and the response was pretty weak to say the least. Choices: go out with a whimper or a bang.

    I told my old friends from CTF that I was going to chose the second option and lo and behold they fancied doing it too. But who to target?

    Well I came onto the forums and saw a lot of people moaning about the big bad Goons. A little further digging and it seemed they were stomping everywhere and raiding with impunity. Good a target as any I suppose. They're up for a fight at least. And maybe, just maybe, some of the rulers who were constantly complaining about Goons would might see this as a catalyst to grow some balls and make a stand.

    I didn't have anything against raiders personally. It's all part of the mechanics on Planet Bob. When you do a ground attack you destroy some things and steal some things (duh). And anyway if I felt that strongly about people starting wars then I wouldn't be planning on going rogue. There, I said it, the R word.

    Well it seems I picked the right alliance because they actually want a fight and they've given us one (the ones who have bothered to rebuy troops at least). I hoped my DoW would be rousing and the evidence of a nuke raid (which is real btw, nothing faked) would get people involved and off the forums into a proper fight.

    Whereas, as Mattski correctly points out, nobody is doing anything but standing back and patting us on the back. Whilst sat in their cars. With the engine running ready for a quick getaway. One even went into peace mode for goodness sake.

    Earlier today I was offered some foreign aid. I left it pending and sent an IGM asking if he understood the implications of what he was doing. It seems he did because he withdrew it...

    Compare that to the PMs I've had from smaller Goons who are literally begging to be on the next round of attacks. Well don't worry, some of us do have the warchests to keep this going for sometime. Your time will come.
