Vladimir Stukov II

Switch your AA to Ordo Paradoxia and you will be under my protection.

Hmmm. Where did you get that image?

Someone needs to make a copy of diplo 7.7 for SC2 and bring the community back together.

Hahaha. I started playing CN with silent_01 and silent_spitfire, we came here from StarCraft and joined BoSS back in the ancient days before it merged into GOLD. Those two were into scamming people and planning coups from the start, whereas I was more interested in helping my alliance. I guess those types of people didn't last long in this game which is why the early days were more exciting. 1) MK 2) LUE 3) GOONS

Just stating the simple fact that we never declared war on TIO.

Oh, so that's how it works. In that case, "TOP doesn't recognize a state of war with TIO" means this war doesn't actually exist.

Hey it only works that way when it benefits US! Gosh you are being so illogical!

Actually we only hit NATO and the rest of US declared on us, which is how things work and no one is complaining about. I don't know why the rest of US is so against the concept of defending their blocmate and instead has to pretend they got attacked.

Shout out to Vol Navy for winning every single underdog on me. <_<

I think I just remembered why I stopped coming here.

Here's to a good fight, TPF! Johan Vult!

Stats > RL

New trend?

I've had different odds levels before. It's usually 50% but when you have a large tech advantage or if they don't have full spies your odds go up.

An entire alliance of you would be unbearable.

Why you crying bro?

Uhhh what? This Bones guy has never been in TOP nor do we vote for him.

If you want to start a peace mode statistics thread that is unbiased then keep the stats of every single alliance in this war and avoid commentary about how we are hiding peace mode. It doesn't seem you were really interested in that though.

Don't be dense. How exactly are the peace mode statistics of an arbitrary selection of alliances relevant to anything other than you trying to insinuate that we are hiding in peace mode to avoid damage?

His statistics are already proving that we are doing exactly as we said we are. Maybe you should find something else to harp on that isn't completely idiotic.

I'll say the same thing I said in the MHA thread: What matters is our ability to output damage in a sustained war and I would say we do that quite well. Your peace mode statistics are irrelevant to me as I was never the one to call out someone for peace mode usage (unless of course they truly were hiding their nations in peace mode to avoid damage, which I haven't personally seen any evidence of yet this war.)

I'm going to be honest with you and I can give a shit if you believe me or not. Only reason I'm responding is because military is my forte and I take great pride in how TOP performs during a war. There are a few reasons we send nations to peace mode: 1. They are going to be unavailable at the start of the war. Believe it or not 100% of our alliance is not always around and people do have obligations outside of this world. Doing this allows us to use them later for staggers and doesn't leave their nation as a tech farm for our enemies. If they are going to be away for an extended period of time we will try to get them sitters. 2. They are in the lower tier. It's no secret that our lower tier is not our strong point. We usually put most of our lower tier in peace mode to start a war because we don't have the resources there to defend everyone and they are usually not as prepared as the rest of our alliance. Of course we have some smaller nations with substantial warchests and experience who we let loose to wreak havoc, but the rest we will bring out once the war is fully underway and we've evaluated the situation. These nations are no good to anyone if after a round or two into the war they are already spent. 3. They are in anarchy and their wars have expired. This allows us to redeploy them where needed instead of letting them sit there and get hit by our enemy. 4. They are unprepared for war. This is something we never want to do because we pride ourselves on our war preparedness. Anyone in this situation has screwed up. Luckily there are only a couple who fall into this category... If need be we would send them out (such as in a losing war where we need all the help we can get). What we don't do is order well prepared nations to peace mode in order to save them for after the war. We will always use the resources available to us to help win the current war we are fighting, we will worry about rebuilding and preparing for the next war after this one is over.

And anyone with a brain can look at this chart and see that is not the case. But don't let facts get in the way of your spin...

I don't see how responding to you calling us out for peace mode usage has anything to do with rolling IRON after this war. You are delusional.
