[quote name='Kalasin' timestamp='1295939946' post='2599393']
The idea is to cause you massive damage, not to destroy you. Watching your nations burn gives us (or me, at any rate) tremendous pleasure. Like actually I haven't been this happy since TOP hit C&G. Although tbqh I wouldn't shed any tears if NPO disbanded in this war.
Also, something something vaunted hippy shield something something. 93 nations in hippy and counting, NPO!

Ohhh ok, So basically the goal of this war is to annoy/pester us. Then yes, I'll give it to you: You'll knock us back a little. Hopefully that's enough tremendous pleasure for you, because I'm afraid your own fate is far, far worse. -

You guys won GWI and Karma, right?
[/quote]
No. Re-read my post. I never said we'd won every war, just that we can't be beaten.
We've fought virtually all of bob at once, payed the harshest reps ever, and bounced back to #2 in a little over a year.
I'm not worried. And you will pay. -
Pacifica has never faced such insurmountable odds. Truly, we are all doomed.
Oh, wait.
When will you people learn that you just can't beat us? -
Pacifica Prevails. And we're edging ever closer back to that #1 spot.
-
I don't know if I would use the words uneducated or fear mongering to describe my situation. Pacifica's slate has been wipped clean before and we both know how that turned out for your enemy on the battle field. Pacifica is the virus that has infected so many today. It was nice to see that Karma offered a temperary relief to the problem, but the world is still sick with this pleague and will quickly turn again as Pacifica hunts down and destroies the memebrs of Karma.
I'd definitely use the words fear mongering. And by the spelling, uneducated.
So yes. Uneducated fear mongering.

And an excellent fight it's been.

As a member of the body republic of the NPO, Grub, I sincerely hope that our alliances can become close allies again sometime in the future. We share a common name, and used to be brothers, and although it may have died in the NpO, most of us here in the NPO thought of you as such for the better part of this last year, and share my thoughts in mending relations to this day.
A very well written OP, you have my respect and appreciation, and I agree with you 100% (obviously)
Unfortunately plenty of Karma leaders don't agree with you, as is evidenced in this thread. Although this "Brave new world" might be a bit more entertaining than one under the Hegemony, it's certainly not a better one.

The math already exists, best case 3 months worse case 6 months,
I counter.
-
Also, what is hypothetical math?
Thank you for completely ignoring my entire post save two words.
Hypothetical
–noun
5. a hypothetical situation instance, etc.: The Secretary of Defense refused to discuss hypotheticals with the reporters.
Math
–noun
1. (used with a singular verb) the systematic treatment of magnitude, relationships between figures and forms, and relations between quantities expressed symbolically.

I was going to write out a long winded and factual reply as to why Karma is hypocritical to the point of being funny. Then I remembered that there's no point.
At least I don't see any more of the white horse, good guy, ending oppression and making CN a better place garbage anymore. That's all gone and been replaced with "Well, you deserve it"
Since everyone around here loves undebatable statistics (myself included), here you go.
This does not factor in things like viceroys or special terms from us, nor does it factor in the special terms of moving everyone to war mode for 14 days, or specifying who can pay reps offered by you. In my opinion (though this is an opinion and not based in numerical fact like the numbers above) Your special terms are also harsher than any we've ever offered anyone.
Considering you are completely ignoring the reps in relation to the size of the alliance in question, I can't help but laughYou do realize CN has been steadily losing players for quite a while now, right? That and we're down to 717 members, even less of which are able to pay reps due to special terms.
I guarantee you alliances like GPA (as an example) were larger than that when we gave them terms.
The bottom line is you're charging us 8x more cash and 3x more tech than we've made in reps in every war we've been in ever. And we've been in just about every war.
Don't try to say inflation or alliance size or hypothetical math somehow make these terms reasonable. They are not.

Inflation is a difficult concept.

Holy crap you still play? Duuuuude.
I just passed you in posts a while ago
Now there's an accomplishment deserving of an alliance announcement.
And yes. I still play. B) How goes it?
-
I remember you guys.
Wrong side, though. =/
-
Really? I remember you specifically telling me that Vox started as a joke that people bandwagoned into after you joined.
But go ahead. Take the opportunity to pretend Vox had something to do with this, or that you're even serious.
-
Why not just declare on all of those alliances as well? I mean come on its not like they are in any way hiding lets hit them now or once we have destroyed the Tyrants.
Because that would be, numerically, a roughly equal fight. I'm sure your leaders are quite content with the current odds.
As am I.
-
Lets be clear on your end: You didn't want peace going into this, you want/ed us dead, or as good as dead.
Lets be clear on our end: Little wars are boring. You've brought a big one. This makes me happy. So, Bob, lets see what you've got.
-
I'm wondering how you're going to keep people out of yellow while hunkered down in your bunkers.
Also, this announcement wasn't nearly as funny as your last one, and indeed it's only saving grace is the gun pr0n.
Work on it.
-
Did the OP really have to be that long?
In any case, good luck with this.
-
Hail Philo!
Hail the NPO!
-
but on topic. Yeah, recruiting us back wont work, we already made a commitment. Where do you think we came from. alliances all over the place.
You honestly think we want you back?
As far as I'm concerned, you're gathering all our enemies into one place to be killed.
-
Being their Diplomat, I suppose I'm laughing harder than others.
Seriously, even alliances in opposition to us are rolling their eyes at this thread. Besides Vox, of course, but that's to be expected.
-
.. What?
They accepted the terms, and the pants thing was a joke. As is your grammar.
Please, go away.
-
Your inability to kill something is not indicative of your leniency towards said entity.
Tyga, I respect you, I really do.
What are you trying to say?
Everything. Must. Die.

No, you've been beaten twice. It was when you lost those wars.
[/quote]
Long term, we've bounced back like no other alliance in history. In fact, this whole war is basically a knee-jerk reaction to us once again being in a position to reclaim our spot as top dogs.
So, yeah. Good luck with this.
