    Against you? Well, I suppose the lack of tech makes you look like less of a raid target :awesome:

    Also, you're in my range, I'll fight you if you want :ehm:

    Well let's just say I wasn't expecting to go to war for the next year or two. Who would want to war against us or our glorious allies? [b]Nobody with enough brains.[/b]:)

    But leaving the jokes aside, I'm not interested in nuclear anarchy at this point. Thanks anyway.

    I think the best part of this episode was IRON Council having a laugh based on logs of you yesterday trying to tell us you were trying to sway the rest of your government into not actually fighting for Polar. We never believed that for a single second. The only thing that might trump that is the fact that you are so politically and militarily unsavvy that you thought preempting you would be worth our time.

    On second thought, neither of those is the best part. The best part must be you guys trying to sell us on this "move" of yours "working" since we didn't attack you prior to update. Seriously, take a step back, look around, and realize your role in this. Your best move would be to shut up, fight hard, and hope we aren't annoyed by this thread after the dust settles.

    Dear Sir, chill for a while, would you? I'm sensing too many nerve cells committing suicide.

    I'm not saying you're wrong about anything you've said...

    I'm saying you've missed the main idea of your own propaganda. What's the last pane of the multipane for if we keep your explanation in mind? Nothing. Thus you've provided too much information and that changes the main idea to differ from your own.

    Know your meme, sir, know your meme.

    I think this I'll stop now, all that needs to be said about that propaganda has been said.

    Not really. Which makes more sense:

    1) a losing alliance expecting Avalanche to pay reps

    OR

    2) a losing alliance being expected to pay reps by its enemies

    Putting it into context, Avalanche offers to pay reps for what it tries to play off as a mistake, when it's in reality just the ineptness of its membership. In context for scenario #1, if IRON were "losing", a) why would it be looking for reps, b) why would avalanche offer reps; more importantly, do losing alliances usually expect [b]avalanche[/b] to pay reps? The context of "usually" implies a pattern seen in Cyber Nations where losing alliances are the ones who pay reparations. Period.

    Although I will admit the grammar could have been improved to avoid confusion for those who fail to apply the logic of context. :rolleyes:

    Wonderful. I was waiting for you to reply.

    Right now, looking plainly at the picture, you can only understand it one way:
    1) Avalanche offered reps
    2) IRON believed they were genuine
    3) Avalanche lost the battle (reps are payed after the conflict).
    You're jumping ahead of yourself and saying that the war is lost for Avalanche - incorrect, the war is still going. And the fact that character IRON thinks or believes that Avalanche has lost makes the third picture fit the scene just perfectly, saying: "Is she really loosing?", he's injecting doubt, the whole point of this so called meme. All this is possible just cause the end result of the war is not defined.

    If to put the picture in context with the thread you're referring to then it makes more sense what'd you want to say, but you screwed up with the second line. The reps couldn't been for losing a war, at that point the reps were supposed to be for rogue attacks cause there wasn't a DoW yet. So the correct line to express your idea would be something like "THAT'S WHAT ROGUES USUALLY DO" or "ISN'T THAT WHAT ROGUES DO?". In both cases you would still look a little silly for believing in the good nature of rogues which they simply lack cause otherwise they wouldn't be rogues, would they?

    The reason that there's no way out of this for you is the reason why I was surprised to see this posted by you.

    All in all, the tiny slip makes the graphic a masterpiece in my opinion.

    Wonderful work of art! Many ways of reading it. :)
    Definitely made my day.

    Though I am a bit confused why you are the one posting this. Which makes it even more wonderful.

    I really like this actually.
    Bi-Polar War 2: The Paradox

    or

    Grudge War
    EDIT: It looks like I was beaten. The Cold Grudge War is pretty awesome as well.

    It may also turn into a Random Grudge War.


    Explains the lack of CB and possible treaty activations at the same time.
