[quote name='erikz' timestamp='1308723587' post='2738276'] Hypocrisy. Anyways, worst PR-disaster of 2011 yet. But we still have 6 months ago, so I hope there will be some new little gems on the boards soon. [/quote] I'm not sure about that. They are going up against NEW, Sparta, DH, and CSN for most bawwed about decisions of the year. That's a tight race.

[quote name='PMoses' timestamp='1308629735' post='2736691'] I was just wondering though, how lame is it when your the bigger nation in a 1 v 1 duel, to nuke the non-nuclear nation cause you can't win Ground Attacks. This guys is supposed to be their MoW, so I actually expected to be able to fight for a week. Not a "Big Dog" as he claims to be hide behind nukes. Though disappointed in his fighting ability. Thanks for the nuke, Casualties rule. LOL.. excuse me, he failed, and had to use a second nook. So more casualties for me [/quote] Launch 'em if you got 'em. That's CN 101.

[quote name='D34th' timestamp='1308693980' post='2737820'] Unhappily people around here don't go to war unless victory is already achieved before it even starts. [/quote] And?

I'm happy this got resolved. I haven't had a full chest since 10-10-10 and I really want to get up to 70k before getting zi'd again.

The hentaistic war.

[quote name='Scorponok' timestamp='1308676750' post='2737431'] Looking good. How long till tLR catches up? [/quote] For a triple merger? Probably a week or so is my guess

[quote name='Mogar' timestamp='1308616142' post='2736281'] out of curiosity, did you contact TPF gov at the time of the raid? [/quote] I did. GS were their allies, so I expected support, but I didn't get it. After a week or two of my members getting chased into larger AA's, I just decided to disband it. But anyway, back on topic.

[quote name='Aeros' timestamp='1308610582' post='2736210'] I motion that everyone now use this thread to air their historical grievances and/or angst. [/quote] I'm still mad at TPF for not protecting my micro 4 years ago when Golden Sabres raided it to death. General's protectorate my arse.

edit: I found our target lists from CF. It looks like TOP had 57 nations above 100k. 78 above 90k. 102 above 80k. That's also !@#$@#$ scary.

[quote name='KainIIIC' timestamp='1308597426' post='2736024'] Asgaard is a boring, unremarkable alliance that might as well take [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=89840&st=0&p=2393204&#entry2393204"]Doppelganger's advice[/url] and disband. [/quote] And yet they could still utterly destroy 90% or more of the alliances in the game without lifting a finger.

Athens were our brothers through thick and thin for years. I am forever honored and proud to have served with you all on many occasions. From the trials and tribulations of Karma to the long grind that was Cluster$%&@ to the unnavigable grey area nuke fest that was the PB-NpO war, you have never once wavered in your commitment to Greece. You have done more for us than most alliances have done for themselves, and we are eternally grateful for your support, cooperation, and friendship. Even though you are passing on, you will forever be the 2nd best Greece in our hearts. o/ Athens o/ Greece

Holy hell this topic got ugly once I got off. Jesus people, I know you hate each other...but [i]$%&@[/i]. I haven't exactly agreed with and/or been on the good side of Delta or Xiph lately, but even I'm disgusted by some of the crap slung at them in this thread. Love em or hate em, they don't deserve that sort of treatment. None of you do.

[quote name='welshgazza1992' timestamp='1308526473' post='2735096'] We held a treaty with Polar, they were attacked. Anybody who honestly expected RoK not to go war, was plain stupid... not that that is an issue for this thread, though. [/quote] It's not that they expected you [i]not[/i] to go to war, it's just that common convention within CN is that bloc mates and the collective interests of said blocs are generally what comes first and foremost (to a degree) in a signatory's foreign policy. Quite frankly, that is just how it is. Bloc signatories generally give up political maneuverability in exchange for greater security and a longer political and military reach via concentration of power through like-minded alliances. The fact that RoK's policies and desires deviated from the rest of SF...well...nobody can really fault you for that. People change. I think the real hurt just came from how it was handled in that the deviation and the effects of said split of interests was so sudden and resulted in the same bloc fighting on two sides. It's not that you or anyone else was wrong for disagreeing/splitting on the issues surrounding the start of the war, it's just that the severe breakdown of communication witihn what is generally supposed to be a solid, single political identity caused a metric $%&@-ton of headaches.

[quote name='eyriq' timestamp='1308525221' post='2735069'] Holy !@#$ man, what side of the war did you just fight on? [/quote] All of them. Like a boss.

[quote name='Schattenmann' timestamp='1308459748' post='2734414'] <@Crymson|AWAY> OK, so the long and short of it is that GOONS signed that treaty in order to help ensure that there won't be a war anytime soon. <@Crymson|AWAY> That's their avowed reason. <@Crymson|AWAY> 1) GOONS wants to secure SF support. <@Crymson|AWAY> 2) There's a new bloc forming that could alter the current order. <@Crymson|AWAY> 3) That new bloc would never be involved in a war with SF. <@Crymson|AWAY> 4) This treaty will thus help to ensure that there won't be a war anywhere in the near future. <@Crymson|AWAY> Yay. <@Crymson|AWAY> And apparently it was all GOONS, not PB. Some in PB didn't want it. [/quote] [IMG]http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h116/Whiteguy321/certaindefeat.png[/IMG] In other news, Rage comics take a lot longer to make than I thought.

TPF-FARK-GOONS.

[quote name='Xiphosis' timestamp='1308352759' post='2733332'] Fingers crossed. [/quote] GOD-CSN merger. Go.

Two major merges and Mj forming all in one week? Not bad, CN...not bad at all. congrats to our friends in Asgaard.

[quote name='supercoolyellow' timestamp='1308197977' post='2732249'] Actually I think it would be at least interesting to see old logs from important events. [/quote] Someone go find some juicy WUT logs. I need reading material.

RV, Pious, ES, Dilber, Mpol as a voting high council. Xiph as MoE/Terry Howard as dMoE. Olaf as MoFA/Youwish as dMoFA. Crym as MoD/Grub as dMoD. I dare them to try to agree on something.

Interesting to see so few treaties rolled over. Then again, they are part of PB now, so it doesn't really make a difference anyway. Congrats to everyone involved.

Considering that I've never been in a peace negotiation that didn't want to make me start a genocide on the human race, I don't really think I want to start reading this OP...

What exactly is the half life on info like this? I'm sure we all have juicy stuff saved for whenever the end times start (god knows I do), but I'm curious to see how long you guys think it should take before what was once extremely controversial intel becomes...well...meh.

[quote name='Schattenmann' timestamp='1307989528' post='2730658'] If you're being serious this is dumb, if you're being sarcastic well played. [/quote] Yes.
