Duderonomy

At this point, an attack by Non Grata on WTF would be defensive, not offensive. CT is a rogue and WTF knew it when they accepted him on the AA. Rogues are open season. Most AAs don't accept them for that reason. WTF has decided to expand the war by attacking Non Grata. Guess I'll get to find out what fighting WTF is like after all.

So I guess I pissed off WTF so bad with my neutral comment that they have decided to attack Non Grata. You guys know how to do a search for "Duderonomy", right? Surely you have a tech seller in range.

Smurf you made me check the wiki and i will never forgive you for it. The PIAT isn't much above a NAP and a defunct MDP doesn't exactly tie them to the treaty web. Their entry states that they choose to avoid politics, which is neutral enough for me. Either way, it sounds like they're decent enough fighters and it may be fun to have a go one day. But, that's unlikely to happen with their current FA and NG's policy of avoiding large neutrals. Maybe they'll join up with Fark for an MDP now that it's obvious they can't stay completely out of politics. NpO, Fark, and WTF could be a decent force.

I post there, although I'm not sure if that would improve things for you... Also, Redneck and Nemhauser post a lot of love notes. It's kinda nice that they found each other through the magic of the Internet. And the gifs. Oh the gifs. If you can promise me half as many good gifs, I will diplo to MI6 right now.

That's epic, man. I thought that was a DBDC thing, though. Lending us you and Artigo to speed things along. I don't ask NPO to thank me for fighting SNX. That was an NG thing. I just tagged along. But it's obvious that you're a legend in your own mind who did everything himself. No need to thank the AA that arranged it, not when you can keep posting ancient grievances against them. As for WTF not being a neutral, a single NAP with Farkistan, though valuable, does not mean they're a part of the treaty web. They're neutral to any conflict between other AAs. Ducks and quacking, etc.

You would be surprised at how many think so: http://www.non-grata.net/index.php?showtopic=9693

The biggest issue is that you've chosen the worst format to voice your concerns/rally support. Anything on the OWF will always be met with a combination of ridicule, apathy, or support by those who have already made up their minds. If you really wanted to change the minds of the alliances listed, you would go to their forums/IRC to hash it out in private. Politics being what they are, no one will hear you out where Cuba is listening. If you've already done so, I apologize, but attempting to shame or blast these AAs in a public forum is a waste of time. NG supports DBDC because they have put their pixels on the line when NG needed them, even without any treaty tie. That's more than can be said for the majority of their targets. You've already shown that you're a pixel-hugger in the past and traitor in the present. WTF is a neutral, and neutrals either prepare for war, as GPA has, or exist at the mercy of those who do. This is not a hippie paradise and war will not go away because you stick your head in the sand. DBDC has more to play for than the top 250. It's likely that they'll eliminate all threats, and then turn into aid machines to increase their influence in other tiers.

It wouldn't surprise me if every top 10 AA has at least one spy in their ranks. Even Non Grata,at its current size, assumes that anything members can see might be leaked at any time. That's why most real policy discussion goes on behind closed doors between members that have a lot invested in the AA (time, work, money). I'm sure IRON is well aware of the risks.

I would like a sandwich as well. These logs are old and don't really have new info. If they're from about a year ago, that was when DBDC was actively attacking IRON. Not surprising if they had hostile conversations about them at the time.

Still waiting for NG-DBDC logs. Wait, no one can deal with that much Artigo slashfic.

There should be a column for casualties instead. When the zombie apocalypse happens, those with the fullest graveyards will be the final victors.

Even the most annoying member has some value, either in their willingness to fight, work, or sell tech. That's why it generally takes treason before an AA will kick you. But this value means nothing when they leave, especially to a non-ally. Ask Buscemi how much pull he has in TOP or Buzz/Arexes about their current influence in NG.

Based on their allies, this is vastly overstating MI6's reach. Just because one is willing to take the dregs of every AA, doesn't mean one has influence in every AA.

No man can have that mustache and not be a Bond villain. Stylish nations work for themselves, not for the queen.

Indeed. I enjoy your charter, good sir. It's also good to know that photoshop is not a lost art. Good show.

Thanks, I've been practicing. Voted NG Spamposter 2 years in a row & Badposter for 2013. I lost Badposter for 2014 to KingXander & Krihelion (Unkajo). It is my greatest shame to lose to a member who does not even have a nation. :(

Why? Are you handing out candy in your van? Give me candy I want some. Ken, tell Marx that if he has some candy that he has to share.

Artigo is gonna raid you, hippie.

And so one knot in the treaty web loosens. Which will be next to feel the razor? Will it be DBDC? NPO? Aztec? Wait...it's NG isn't it! Dear Gawd keep that blade away from me. I can take the bullet. I can take the clean death of a nuke to the noggin. But not the bloody blade. OH GAWD TEH BLOOD. And may all find new friends in the wrong places.

Well, there is one prominent example. You know, it was fairly recent. Involved some sort of Avian Party vs. a certain Cold Clan. Are you sure your mind isn't going? I mean, you are 1800 days old, Ken. Maybe you should sit back, relax, and let MI6 handle things for a bit. I mean, if GOONS is gonna go neutral, you might as well let MI6 have some fun in your place.

I'm just happy that MI6 plans to protect an ally who has no intention to reciprocate. They are the kingmakers, and it sounds like they've found their king. So who gets to be your queen, Marx? :ehm:

In Soviet Non Grata, nuking is the first step in an elaborate mating ritual.

That isn't the only thing you do late night, is it Vortex? Saxasm gave us some pics of you and a certain stock car enjoying the countryside together. I never knew you were a tailpipe man...err...lizard.

Note to men: our women have syphilis, too. -A public service announcement brought to you by Nordreich

Didn't TidyBowlMan give you enough nukes? I'm sure he could be persuaded to give you more, if you want. He's a giver. And I am encouraged by everyone's concern for NPO's nukes. The oppressed nuclear nations of NPO need your help to achieve their goal of a nuke on every table. Please send tech & money to nation ID 534338, and it will be distributed to impoverished Pacificans that only need a small push to get on their feet. I thank you, Pacifica thanks you, and Bob thanks you for your generosity.
