  1. ~1.3m damage taken by TSC, 826k damage inflicted; both very high numbers relative to their size and the duration of the war; stuff got blown up good. As always, damage ratios don't tell the whole story; TSC didn't have the benefit of picking their targets in the first round, and that first round accounts for the vast majority of the gap in damage taken and received.
  2. If we're going to discuss peace terms on the OWF, I'm okay with any agreement so long as it limits Tywin to posts that include nothing but adverbs and the names of vegetables.
  3. Nothing but respect for TSC and the tenacity you guys displayed. Thanks for a great fight; don't be strangers, y'hear.
  4. Whenever this world reaches its finale, that's my dream. A war where everyone follows their treaties with no trace of strategy or logic, such that the conflict just devolves into a circular firing squad, punctuated by a final cry of "well, that was pointless" as the lights go out.
  5. This is the problem with rule by the elite; always making decisions with your EMPs. Now that you've planted the seed, hart's probably going to have us switch sides just to get targets.
  6. In this war, the itchiness of your trigger finger is a balm for my soul. Explode things, VE.
  7. Next time you hit IRON please switch to a different sphere first; the pink and orange colour scheme on the decs screen right now is just uncouth.
  8. Pretending that some other poster made that comment, I don't think that many would call Polar's performance terrible. Went full speed ahead knowing they'd get clobbered, and the ratio is largely a reflection of that. And as pointed out previously, no matter whether you're on the winning or losing side, the nations [i]declaring[/i] individual wars generally come out ahead, as a result of being able to hit at the bottom of their strength ratios...Polar hasn't had much relief, and consequently has been on the receiving end of most declarations.
  9. And equally irrelevant to you, Justician. The titles we assign ourselves change a hundred times over should we remain here for any duration; some are serious, some less so. Our character persists unchanged; have you been a different person in each of your dozen or so stops along the way?
  10. The 'broader theme' you outline would get a raised eyebrow and D+ in any freshman comparative politics class. Little of what you have cited is relevant to the actors you mention; it's the rhetorical equivalent of calling the New Polar Order an unserious grouping because the name is an anagram of Warred El Porno.
  11. DBDC must be an unserious alliance because their cultural references are not nearly as pretentious as yours. Be right back; changing our alliance's titles to characters from Dostoevsky stories and thus achieving Peak Seriousness.
  12. This is inarguably the strangest rationalization I've seen in my time in this world. [i]Your own alliance[/i] has ministerial positions based largely on [ooc][i]1984[/i][/ooc]; do cultural references an unserious alliance make?
  13. C'mon, people, let's not rehash the same tired debate about DBDC. This thread should be a place where we discuss Scorn's aims of global hegemony and the brave resistance of the embattled patriots of AZTEC.
  14. I hope you ninnies get your comeuppance when the real target TOP rises up with conquest on its mind and whiskey on its breath and puts an end to your downdeclaring ways. Also, crush them etc.
  15. New for 2015: Meatshieldr, the CN companion app. Whether you're looking for a long-term alliance, or just someone to fill your slots, there's Meatshieldr.
  16. On that, we are in perfect agreement.
  17. Must say that I'm a wee bit confused, though. Had it on good authority from top men in Sparta that this year's war was AZTEC rolling IRON, and I'm at a loss to figure out how the chains resolve for that now.
  18. IRON, this is just like the time you declared on Argent in defense of the bug-eyed people of Tau Epsilon IV. If you don't remember that, ask Mogar to fill you in on the details.
  19. Because you're operating from a timeline that you've cobbled together from vague recollections that bear scant resemblance to the events of past years? I don't blame you for not being overly familiar with the alliance histories of Sengoku, or AB, or the other members of AZTEC; Sengoku in particular is pretty young in the grand scheme, barely out of nappies in EQ and fighting in a pretty inconsequential corner of Disorder (and before you go off on a tangent: it was the only front that involved one of our allies being hit). But it does somewhat undermine one's ability to throw about accusations when all of your premises are so flimsy.
  20. Likewise, I shall one day have my revenge for your failure to anticipate the deleterious effects of some pesticides on migratory birds, and it will be sweet.
  21. Good for you, sport! Our largest (around 140k NS, IIRC) was someone who was leaving the alliance imminently, and the whole team effort thing was a bit tricky what with there not being a team in range. Most of what could gently be called our top tier was in the 80-110k range (and that top end might be generous). Also: there were many, many alliances in that war who actually i) had nations in range, ii) had allies who were getting smoked by DBDC. I'm curious why our failure to stop them weighs particularly heavy on your mind?
