Looks like a good war. Except "Peace Choice", who are obviously are reluctant to fight :awesome: , the rest look quite formidable.
Don't worry about departed members. Your selection process was just quickened a bit - the weak will perish, the toughest will survive and improve ;)

Except that's exactly what you're doing here. If it isn't "might makes right" dictating Planet Steve, why were we immediately dogpiled for something we didn't know was a rule?
If even you didn't know, you've been told straight away it's wrong. Instead of fixing the situation, your Leader Caladin decided to proceed anyway. There is no united hypocritical mafia in TE, as a matter of fact it's divided in a few groups with a different approach and those groups would fight a lot sometimes to sort out their differences. Thats exactly where some common ground had been worked out - like what is fair in declaring wars. Variation in estimates is huge if you go from one old alliance to another, but what you did is definitely a NO-NO and you've been politely pointed out it was definitely wrong. If somebody from TE in some way does condone you - it's only due to some political games. Any serious established TE alliance know you did the wrong deed.
You're a new gang, who just barged in and decided to install your own rules and in response to the counters you just trying to bring in more muscle power. You're transferring your SE habits and some primitive knowledge of TE to the TE affairs and you are going to fail. TE is a completely different animal.
You are complaining about dogpile? It's the same like a criminal would complain about a few policemen tackling him.
You've decided to ignore a friendly advice, now pay the consequencies. As I said before - in any case, TE would lose yet again because of your lack of the common sense.
The inability to admit a mistake is not a sign of the maturity in your government. Seen that, been there. You came and you'll disappear in a round-two as a power, even if you don't see it yet, unless you change your approach.
That's another free advice of mine.

I second the sentiment about NDO. In the past I've had them as add-ups a few times and they never had hard feelings. They are not hypocrits and they are saying what they are thinking. The niceest people out there.

Cowboy is getting higher and higher popularity ratings. Might consider running for the president as well :ehm:
-
Sadly, wisdom isn't popular and other human traits prevail. What happens - happens for a reason. Amen.

Haven't been a member for a long time, tbh; last time I played would have been back in 2012 or 2013 :/
As for this wonderful new alliance? Large and inactive pretty much covers it :P
Most of us haven't played TE before.You see, Caladin - here is a problem. On one hand, you deserve a praise for introducing new members to TE, which is very important. On the other hand, this war is far from being fair. NDO are nice people, you know.
Most likely you and your alliance are going to pay for that sooner or later and as a result, most of the first time members from your alliance would never return after such bad experience.
So, both your alliance and TE in general would lose potentially good players. It happened like that many times before.
I always regret when there are new TE members, who are not getting into established alliances like Citadel, where they could be taught properly, but are joining such new AAs with some mismanagement :awesome: . As a result, many old AAs are slowly going downhill and new alliances like yours most likely would disappear - and every time I'm considering it as a loss for all of us.
I'm not bs-ing with you here, I'm genuienly concerned. I only can give you an advice: admit to yourself it wasn't the right decision and approach NDO to peace out immediately. Good luck.
Edited: spelling

I remember you've been in OP for a while, Caladin. Could you please tell more about your new wonderful alliance? Nice to see you starting with a grudge. Welcome :popcorn:
-
Knew about this a week ago :ph34r:
How so? I didn't
-
Yes, statistics are very close, just to add up a few more:
13 Manhattan Projects, 2 Strategic Defense Initiatives and zero of CIA in Citadel ;
9 Manhattan Projects, 8 Strategic Defense Initiatives and heaps of CIA (from my 3 targets 2 have them)
I'm sure more Military Wonders would pop up in the Avengers - they have slots available. Citadel might get a few more closer to the end.
Well, considering all the mentioned above plus an obvious difference in "elitism" levels, Citadel can expect nothing but a thorough beating - but we didn't build for fighting the Avengers - it should've been done in a different way of course.
Blame the evil Kitty Princess and $100 Mln start up money lol
However, we'll try to sell our "lives" dearly.
o/ destruction
-
And citadel, the avenegrs will be happy to take all your pixels away.
Oh, I see. Was it the Avengers you were afraid of by starting a war in the middle of the day? Tsk-tsk
-
Good to see old trusty NDO being back in force. GL NDO and TPC.
-
He said that because Citadel seem to always hide by keeping ns low and waiting for everyone else to war and then they make their moves. I have heard great things about Kong so I'm sure he will change that this round.
Somebody is feeding you the wrong information, my friend. With me or without me, it isn't our policy to keep Citadel artificially low.
All theories I'm aware of are due to one simple reason: Citadel members are all humans, not robots and RL interferes sometimes, hence certain delays or visible procrastination or the rush.
Thank you for explaining it with figures, Ahmad alMansur - I don't remember the figures from the past lol
-
Boy, I definitely didn't miss that OWF bickering lol
To whom it may concern: all Citadel members posting here are expressing their own views as each Citadel member is entitled to.
I'm leading this round, so...
Cheers to all
-
I hope that all of this will be promptly forgotten, one way or the other, and
Friendship gets an opportunity, again!!! :wub:
You made me laugh, really :)
-
Great environment for rogues. You can screw somebody, reroll and get your $100 Mln back in no time. 4-5 turnovers during the round? Crazy.
-
Top gear was not D1 last round. He was an Avenger! Prior to being an avenger he was in D1 yes. Shall we make the assumption that he is a D1 spy?
Youve never provided concrete proof on any of your accusations against us. And unless ive missed something youve also been wrong most times. Just because your theory makes sense to you does not mean it is fact.
Me? I had the best chance at peak ns? Want to run our flag chasing department for future rounds?
Identifying flag chasers is easy. When you have a need to take out the competition near the end, you are the flag runner.
We have not yet seen the need to "rouge out" any competition. You should know that we are well capable.
So what if we recruit active people. And so what if 5 or 7 donate once? Infra winner didnt at all. We are here to be the best AA.
Il continue to roll out casualties while you yell flagrunner. We have had numerous rounds at 90 days. Pretty sure 10 mil cash as well. In any case the casualties and the warring speak for themselves.You must be having a lot of extra time on your hands to keep arguing here, StevieG lol
Btw, I'm visiting TE next round, so be afraid he-he
-
I'm in the Mighty "None" AA!
Thank you. I'm not working on the primitive level you are describing. Alliances level is much better. As to your bragging about your fighting abilities - I fought you before, so calm down.
You are a relative noob here and don't understand the basics and that's about it.
As me being "hurt" by your insults of Citadel - I'll deal with the alliance you will be in, I'm not interested in your nation.
-
Are you hurt because I'm telling everyone the plans you had? Do you really think destroying my pixels will hurt me? I'll actually build my nation next round and I won't be hard to find. :ehm:
I've asked which AA are you in, that's all. Can you comprehend my English?
-
I will call your bs out every time, as long as i play and don't you ever forget it Citadel.
Your special definition of Citadel bullshitting out there every time has been noted..and yes, it will be remembered, since you are addressing the entire alliance here, while my remarks and the remarks of others had been referred only to you personally, not to the alliance you are in. Are you still in Misfits?
-
As far as I've been told, D1 were planning on hitting CIT anyway and then CIT approached D1 about a co-op against Avengers. Cowboy obviously wasn't interested in the kamikaze attack and for good reasons. Not everyone wants to get rolled, its actually what most leaders try to avoid but some people have bigger egos than sense. I'd bet D1 had no idea that the Avengers would hit them considering they were trying to avoid them.
You've lost your bet here. Also, stop discussing affairs you have not a tiniest clue about. I'm not going to give big speeches here I'll leave you all with that in mind.

Round 33 will start Friday October 17th, mid-morning. It will be a 60 day round and afterwards we'll take a break until after the 1st of the year. I'm working on some small tweaks to the round, someone suggested the elimination of SDI. Thoughts/Ideas?
Please don't listen to them, leave SDI as it is. There always has to be an element of some uncertainty and surprise imho :smug:
A lot of nukes like it was before - 20/25 - is really boring.
To restrict the number of nuke launches per day? If all thwarted - bad luck? What do you think?
-
Nukes are fine; the down declare range has to be narrowed.

B-)
Wellcome back Slithering Serpents...Always a pleasure to get a new pair of snake boots... ! Lol! :P
And you King James, old Guard, SKARO embrace you...!!! ;) :frantic:
The real "old guard" in TPC gov. are bibliophile, Double 0 Thirteen and Kegkiller ;)
Surprised to see Kegkiller back in the official government after such a long time being on the sidelines.
He's been my only true mentor in my early days, who played a great deal in shaping my style and the way of thinking. He could've done so much more if kept staying in the leadership..but RL rules.
o/ Kegkiller

Thank you for welcoming me back, guys. A weird feeling of having no authority though lol.
Bomb, you better recognize us :blush:

A possibility to come to a mutual conclusion/agreement is only possible if both sides discussing it are at the comparable level of intelligence in a certain proximity range to each other. Reading the all above I give up and there is no other way but just a brutal and senseless bashing. No offence meant, really.. just a fact of life I guess.
