  1. He chose to hit a rogue even if it rustled WTF's jimmies. Really, it's Mogar who should be upset. It's the only one who gets to rustle jimmies around here.
  2. Make more comics. That'll slow you down. Also, I don't view any of this as a reflection on RIA. They are simply doing every other AA a favor by giving Mogar a home so it can't spam other AAs with apps.
  3. Everything is about Stewie. The "blame Caustic" angle went out with the last war against NpO. Honestly, none of this would have happened if you had accepted him as overarching neutral Vice Roi. So now that CT is down for whatever reason, I expect to see far fewer unsurprising revelations about DBDC's plans to destroy Bob. This makes me slightly sad. Perhaps WTF could post more ODN diplomacy. We can't have friends looking out for each other. Don't let Schattermang beat you to the scoop.
  4. Imagine thinking that soldiers are a standard part of the tech deal. Or that tech deals must be accompanied by a DoW. Sending soldiers is aggressive, breaking an NAP. DBDC has decided not to pursue this with RIA, beyond whatever fine they agreed to. No one wants to escalate this beyond the standard non decision makers. Not RIA. Not DBDC. Not even WTF, or they would be pursuing DBDC's sellers like NpO attempted to.
  5. Farkistan is the only AA barred from sending soldiers to Cuba. WTF has no treaties with anyone else, which seems to be a point of pride on their part. I'm sure that no one in Fark has plans to send DBDC anything. I doubt WTF really wants to widen the war. Many high-tier nations still have a large WC since the birds raided most of their opponents in the war. Frankly, DBDC has lasted a long time with the amount of AAs they've gone through. Lack of targets was a pretty big complaint at NG during the war. To NpO's credit, smaller and active nations like mine did burn through our WCs, but it doesn't take much to keep us going or rebuild us. I can usually make one round of aid last ten days. And it took about 2 weeks to rebuild. Ogaden acknowledged that RIA has a NAP in place with DBDC and paid a tech penalty. Pretty sure any drama from this has already backfired. So, I guess Mogar was hoping for a thread? Maybe it should have made up an anniversary like everyone else.
  6. The rebels have thwarted us for the last time. All hail oppression! I guess this makes Stewie Jabba the Hutt and me Greedo. I'll practice my blaster draw so Tywin can't shoot first.
  7. I agree with Mogar. DBDC just has a massive techdeal with WTF. They can't help it if their money deliver system creates a mushroom cloud once the deal is complete. :ehm:
  8. DBDC can speak up for themselves if they disagree. That they haven't means bad times for Valhalla. Speculation is not a monopoly of AA leadership. They usually have to be more careful since they can't just be kicked from the AA if they make someone angry. Are you angry, Mr. Hal? Perhaps you should have a long talk with Caustic. He's got choice photographs that will ease your worries and make you forget all about the big, bad DBDC. Or you could always visit the NG forums. Yours is the only embassy that we will never archive. And don't worry about my skin. I've been banned from #nongrata, #grata, the IRON forums, and the Non Grata forums. Made it back to all four in one piece. I think I can handle a jolly "Viking pat on the back with a knife". In the meantime, WTF should be having more fun now than they've ever had. I wonder if they'll join us in the treaty web now that they have a little radiation in their blood.They'd probably be better off making peace and joining up with a couple other AAs. Even just having Fark by their side in an ODP would make things more difficult for DBDC.
  9. So the pool of DBDC's potential tech sellers just shrank by one. Dear God, NpO's policy works!
  10. Well, Buscemi is unusually sympathetic with MI6. He'll be siding with CT next. :mellow: *Makes another tech shipment to Buscemi*
  11. Sorry, Hal, DBDC will not be recognizing your neutrality anytime soon, so I would approve of the first option if it freed their resources to focus on Val. But the latter option is more likely. Inertia is always hard to break, and DBDC should look at WTF as a threat to their goals at this point.
  12. Ah, the moralist champion who raided until the very end. At least Tywin could back up his rantings. May I ask, why are you on Team None? Is it possible that you are sanctioned as a rogue on every color? If so, why would WTF be surprised when you're attacked by outside AAs? Rogues are open season, after all. If WTF has long known that you were considered a rogue (you've been sanctioned on maroon since 2/3), then they can't really consider you a member in good standing. If it weren't for their war, you would have been booted to a micro months ago. Non Grata has had rogue members. They either leave the AA or take their lumps and then we negotiate for their return. We don't defend them. They made their choice. You have made your choice. And WTF has made their choice. They don't recognize the wishes of the wider community. They have decided to spread the conflict to other AAs. What happens now will be determined in gov negotiation at best and in nuclear silos at worst.
  13. Stewie let Tapley know that he was risking a wider conflict to defend a known rogue. Tapley is going to get the worst of that encounter by far. Stewie barely fought in the DoomWar, and Tapley barely has a warchest. Soft NS on Tapley's part doesn't help. I've dealt with two other nuclear rogues when I didn't have a Manhattan Project or SDI. I kept on them for the full war. Not scared of another rogue and his neutral friends.
  14. Stewie hasn't complained once. The rest of us are a little protective of him since he's the only guy that keeps us out of trouble. At least the dates line up as I thought they did. CT made his choice and we will consider him a rogue until WTF pulls his keister out of the fire.
  15. My mysogynist capitalism trembles in despair.
  16. For Asa: the question is whether CT left while there was an active war between DBDC & WTF or immediately prior to it when war was all but certain and planned, and then attacked DBDC. He also has leaked several war planning sessions, which Non Grata has also been a victim of in the past. This is based on the dates I have available, which are limited. That is our issue with CT. Treason and betrayal. Not whatever old stuff that happened before I was around. The older actions are merely a sign that this behavior is not new, and CT will not receive peace simply because WTF sends an 18,000 infra 8,000 tech nation to get EMPed into the ground.
  17. I finally looked at Stewie's opponent. I will never fault WTF's bravery, but I will stop complaining about their attacks. In fact, I hope they attack more. :facepalm:
  18. Great. Now you try to get the mods to fight for you. I didn't even know about that until you mentioned it and would not have known it from fearadaram's post. Wouldn't surprise me if he didn't know about it. Sorry to hear about this incident in another universe. That is always a traumatic experience. Now submit to Stewie's stagger, Skype squealer.
  19. Attacking your own AA, especially in the middle of a war, makes you a rogue and traitor. Based on CT's seniority and the length of the war, CT defected AFTER war was declared. Since it seems that CT has been involved in war planning (based on logs), that means that he went through the whole war planning process before deciding to jump. He had lots of time to leave/make his concerns known before the war happened. Staying on the AA meant that his brothers counted on him to show up. He didn't. In fact, he stabbed them in the back. Something I expect Valhalla to sympathize with. Non Grata has been helping DBDC with a rogue, much like we helped Doomsquad with Rotavele. At that time, it was DBDC who white knighted Rotavele. WTF has instead chosen to defend a rogue through force.
  20. As Spindoctor made plain above, a rogue nation will not be considered the voice of WTF. This will be decided by gov in WTF and AAs involved. Your fate will be decided by them. That's always the way it is with nations that choose to attack their own alliance. It's long past time you accepted this.
  21. Stewie hasn't given marching orders yet. He may very well decide to take his lumps and move on. That's up to him. I have little-to-no decision-making responsibilities for the AA. Just a trade monkey. I've never seen CT as anything but a rogue after he attacked DBDC as soon as he dropped them. I fought two rogues last year alongside DoomSquad and IRON so it may have colored my perceptions somewhat. Maybe events transpired differently than that, in which case you can enlighten me. But I don't see WTF accepting CT as any different than MCX accepting Rotavele. In either case, the wars against the rogue will not stop just because a random AA decides to accept them. The exit has to be negotiated before that nation is accepted or the AAs involved have to get bored. Granted, CT isn't nearly as bad as Rotavele, so he's welcome to take his lumps and keep going with whatever grudges he picked up. I doubt I'll ever be at a level for him to strike back at me, but he's welcome to take any swipes he wants to.
  22. We've made Buscemi an advisor now. You can stop acting so smug. :v:
