[quote name='checkers6676' date='09 July 2010 - 09:07 AM' timestamp='1278695256' post='2364915'] You are about 3 years too late for /b/ on CN mate. [/quote] Well we stuck it out for three months...

[quote name='bakamitai' date='08 July 2010 - 08:08 PM' timestamp='1278648475' post='2364296'] Look out, Londo. Next we'll be merging into you. I hope you like BBQ sauce with your babies. [/quote] Kansas City sweet, Southern Mop, Louisiana Hot, Tennessee Whiskey Sauce, or Dry Rub? [quote name='Sooner' date='08 July 2010 - 09:38 PM' timestamp='1278653905' post='2364451'] Oh I couldn't agree more. To the OP: So rather than post a story, you picked merger?!? into Athens?!? [/quote] They had been giving us lots of advice and helping out those of us who couldn't get our own tech deals. They were like big brother from day one [quote name='rsoxbronco1' date='08 July 2010 - 09:47 PM' timestamp='1278654451' post='2364462'] I guess nobody told him how terrible we are. [/quote] Nope, its all news to me... [quote name='Seth Muscarella' date='08 July 2010 - 10:01 PM' timestamp='1278655274' post='2364477'] /b/, if you adversely affect Athens, you'll have hell to pay. Fortunately i know that Londo knows what he's doing. After that, all I can say is welcome to the fold. :-) [/quote] Well I cant say for the rest of my former alliance, but I'll be a good little sheep...Baaa... Seriously though, I think we'll be fine. I hear theres still a good number of First Reich /b/ around here hidden away in different alliances. [quote name='Vasuda' date='08 July 2010 - 10:49 PM' timestamp='1278658155' post='2364526'] As if I wasn't already embarrassed to be allied to Athens, then they absorb /b/ into their ranks. [/quote] Welcome to the Thunderdome [quote name='Caliph' date='08 July 2010 - 11:57 PM' timestamp='1278662220' post='2364591'] Folding in such a situation doesn't really help. You should've stood tall, and stood your ground. There are several alliances who've faced such odds and have come out of such situations surviving. [/quote] We weren't big enough to stand out ground. We would have been stomped into day-1-like nations.

[quote name='Chief Savage Man' date='08 July 2010 - 05:56 PM' timestamp='1278640548' post='2364110'] Athens harbors 4chan scum Also I knew about this already since I was in the channel when it happened. Honestly good luck to you. [/quote] Have you ever sat down and spoken with Londo for any length? They dont harbor the scum, they are founded by the scum.

[quote name='Gerald Meane' date='08 July 2010 - 03:59 PM' timestamp='1278633557' post='2363955'] Don't make us merge into athens bro. [/quote] I dare ya

[quote name='Kzoppistan' date='08 July 2010 - 12:36 PM' timestamp='1278621348' post='2363787'] This just in: Athens sicks attack-dogs GOONS on unsuspecting [s]newbs[/s] micro-alliances in covert plan to bolster their numbers by way of strong-arm mergers, suspected tear splitting scheme in progress. Full Story At 11. [/quote] I [i]thought[/i] there was something suspicious about the timing and ease of it all, hmmm.... [quote name='shahenshah' date='08 July 2010 - 12:40 PM' timestamp='1278621630' post='2363789'] Im surprised that nobody said it so... "Match made in heavens" [/quote] Nobody said it because it's a given...

[quote name='nippy' date='08 July 2010 - 12:02 PM' timestamp='1278619309' post='2363744'] To be quite honest, you're not that bad for a /b/ member. You must see how you're just providing tears for our enjoyment by producing threads like this, however. You're putting a lot more effort into crying about how GOONS ruined your day by making you decide between eating a small slice of humble pie for our enjoyment or merging your alliance into another one. Every individual that has successfully completed our terms comes out of it with an entry on our 'do not attack' list, and most come out of there with a smile on their faces. All it takes is 5-10 minutes of creativity and a sense of humor. [/quote] Honestly I was just ribbing you guys. And I wouldn't say I am crying, I was more just mildly annoyed by the whole situation. But hey, by folding into Athens, I got 3 tech deals the same day. That was pretty sweet.

[quote name='Baldr' date='08 July 2010 - 11:41 AM' timestamp='1278618084' post='2363719'] You were dictator of a newbie micro-alliance that everyone hated. You were already a nobody. It's designed to be humilating, much like a school-yard bully beating up a smaller kid and making him say "I'm a monkey's uncle" or whatever. It's meaningless, except the bully gets off on it. [/quote] [quote name='ktarthan' date='08 July 2010 - 11:48 AM' timestamp='1278618505' post='2363727'] Don't forget, we take their lunch money first. [/quote] And people thought we were bad?

[quote name='Tigerdonia Redux' date='08 July 2010 - 11:25 AM' timestamp='1278617106' post='2363688'] Athens must be desperate for new blood. [/quote] Ha, calling us new blood is a stretch at best.

[quote name='ktarthan' date='08 July 2010 - 10:46 AM' timestamp='1278614744' post='2363642'] I agree. We should have demanded money and tech instead. Or maybe just installed a viceroy. Or better yet, simply continued to attack without any terms for peace. Damn us and our cruel terms. [/quote] Didn't say your terms were cruel, just I felt they were kind of humiliating. Admittedly, i could have handled the situation better.

[quote name='Londo Mollari' date='08 July 2010 - 10:34 AM' timestamp='1278614045' post='2363624'] This thread makes me feel somehow dirty inside. Oh the existential crises. Also, all of you are next. [/quote] You are dirty inside. And outside. Literally and metaphorically. All hail Londo Mollari, the consumer! (btw, does this mean you are like the borg? either consume or destroy something?)

[quote name='Captain Flinders' date='08 July 2010 - 09:06 AM' timestamp='1278608756' post='2363545'] I still don't get why people get so upset about GOONS wanting them to write short stories or draw funny pictures. You must not care about your alliance very much if you can't write a comedic short story to save its life. [/quote] [quote name='Sardonic' date='08 July 2010 - 09:24 AM' timestamp='1278609879' post='2363557'] Well, that's the problem with /b/, they can't generate any content. All they know how to do is take content from other groups, memefy it, and repeat the memes endlessly. Either way, have fun in Athens, /b/. [/quote] Its the whole being forced to generate a humorous short story at sword-point, you know? I have enough trouble with writers block under normal circumstances. That and I think its kind of humiliating, like being turned into their puppet :-/ dancing for their amusement.

[quote name='Anu Drake' date='08 July 2010 - 09:02 AM' timestamp='1278608523' post='2363542'] This is a thread I could never predict or even dreamt up. So many different ironies running in different directions... [/quote] Welcome to my life...

[quote name='Believland' date='08 July 2010 - 08:18 AM' timestamp='1278605907' post='2363512'] Then don't merge your alliance, heh [/quote] A) Too late. B) I think GOONS would be waiting like a hungry wolf to catch us unprotected.

[quote name='Believland' date='08 July 2010 - 08:06 AM' timestamp='1278605159' post='2363503'] You sound mad about this... [/quote] You think? I went from being a Dictator of an alliance to just a nobody...

[quote name='Choson' date='04 July 2010 - 06:05 PM' timestamp='1278295484' post='2359876'] I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay... I approve this post and I raid all day... [/quote] Yes you guys do raid. And damn it was annoying. /b/ had to fold into Athens because of it.
