It's like you guys are upset we declared war on you or something
First of all, if CD is outnumbered by anyone, it is The Corporation. We have more wars against you than you have against Fark. Unless the sheer amount of members they have is somehow physically damaging your nations without even fighting a dozen of them, this arguement is null.
And we declared war at this time because the co-ordinators of this war decided that it would have been best for the Corporation to counter Carpe Diem. We actually waited at update for you for a day or two before, but I guess it just takes a while for your allies to get pummeled before you decide to mosey on in.
