I can already imagine how this conversation went.
UPN- Oh Shi- We really messed up guys, please help!
UPN Allies- Yep, you sure are in trouble. We got your back bro's
UPN- Sweet, so, can you go threaten NG with war and get em to back down?
UPN Allies- Errr, no, we can't do that.
UPN- But you just said you got our back!
UPN Allies- Yep, and we are going to give you some advice between bro's. Grovel and beg, its the only way.
UPN-....
UPN Allies- Hey, Advising is helping, right?
