The number today is 1,129.

I like Christmas music, except for the vast majority of it which sucks balls.
I find this to be true of most genres of music however.

I realize that, I'm just saying.
What part of "They don't recognize RED as an alliance" aren't you getting here. A group of unaligned, by common raiding alliance definitions, cannot, by definition, have any crime comitted onto them, because unaligned are not recognized as having any sovereignty. Therefore the person they aided was not a rogue, because RED isn't a real alliance by their standards.
All nations are sovereign.

/me pinches Haf's cheek. You sir, are sooo cute. Try as you may, you do not set Athens' policy. If RED is not an alliance, by our standards, then SWAT is not a rogue. Hence, we have a total non-issue here. But, you are still cute as a button.
This is the post you make to prove you're not arrogant?
Define rogue, and explain to me why attacking an alliance has anything to do with it.
-
So it's OK if you aid rogues as long as they're roguing small alliances?
The arrogance on display here is breathtaking.
-
I think it was a genuine comment Haf. This guy is a little off the pace for a MoFA.
Yes, I think so too. Thus the inclusion of the word "duh" in my post.
-
It does appear as if RED has a CB against both \m/ and Athens. This could get interesting.
Yes, Athens committing random acts of war against 14-man alliances is certain to lead to something interesting.
I just don't get why AcTi didn't just declare on us for harboring a rogue
Because you're bigger. Duh.
His slots are full from techdeals; I checked 4 hours ago. Darned game mechanics making me a faux.
Actually, most of that is freebie aid. I aid out to Invicta quite a lot.
Also: Interalliance Politics 101: Treaties enable. If you're actually pissed, you should lobby for a treaty cancellation. 3,000,000 to RED doesn't teach Athens anything.
It's funny that this still needs to be said.
I don't think RED has a protector.

I disagree. We have a letter written by Paul in 55 or 54 AD that say s Christ appeared to 500 people at one time, after he died. Such a claim was so close to the event that the account could be shot down on such a large scale that we wouldn't be here talking about it. All people would have had to say is "where are these 500 witnesses?" and if we can't come up with them, then Christianity goes POOF.
You haven't studied history very much.
In 55 AD, it was fairly easy to make claims like that, because they were inherently hard to verify. Paul would not be able to produce those 500 people on request even if they really existed. Also it would be generally assumed that everyone exaggerates, and by exaggerate I mean a whole lot.
We're talking about a world without modern communications technology here. You'd be amazed how dependent we are on basic stuff like telephones to do this kind of investigation now.
And even now you get weird arguments about things like UFOs, some of which cannot be resolved completely.

What Prodigal Moon doesn't get: How can you have a plank in your eye?
Must be anime eyes.

it is related though. if what's written in the Bible, in particular the New Testament, is historically accurate...then Jesus really lived. He really said what he said. He really died on a cross. And He really rose again from the dead 3 days later. And that carries a lot of religious significance.
As I said, there's two arguments here; one is whether the Bible in its various modern translations is an accurate translation of the stuff that was written down not long after Jesus died, which is where you get the historical accuracy analysis and it seems clear that it is, and then there's the argument about whether the stuff that was written down happened exactly as it was described, which is a matter of faith because lots of really important events like the resurrection don't have a lot of witnesses.
It should be noted that I'm not a Christian here.
-
Some of the people defending the New Testament's validity are not people I would have pegged as men of faith.
Carry on.
Historical accuracy is not a matter of faith.
You can argue about whether specific events happened in the New Testament (e.g. turning water into wine) without questioning whether it's the book that was written at the time, also.

I look for every opportunity to criticize MK?
Here's a summary of my recent posts concerning MK.
---
Actually, one of our former MoFAs is a member of the Mushroom Kingdom now.
---
You could just apply to NAC; as far as I know, MK's only gonna ZI you once.
---
So this is the best drama MK can come up with?
"NPO deleted some posts of our diplomats on their forums, so now we're closing their embassy."
Man. Grow up.
---
So, 15 mil and 250 tech is too high for having a former member drop a trade, but 12 mil and 200 tech is just right for publicizing your misdeeds?
Right.
---
15M and 250 tech in reps for a 3M aid thief who NSO isn't protecting?
Oh man.
---
Don't really care about RoK either. GOONS have been more abusive, but they're getting better, as the KN peace terms show.
-
Oh it's Tigerdonia. I note that he hasn't actually nuked you; not sure that you should be celebrating your sanction abuse in public.
-
Criminals are really dumb. At least that guy managed to steal SOMETHING.
-
Well, I got close to it accidentally. But hitting the exact number, well, that was one tech deal and .004 miles of land to get it right on the nose.
-
Alterego's right; there is no concentration of power anywhere in CN outside of the new hegemony or whatever you want to call it.
NPO has a few friends, NpO has a few friends, IRON has a few friends... et cetera.
Nobody wants to organize a huge war out here. If you want to have one, you're going to have to fight it against people who do want to organize one.
-
I specified in my post. But throw in STA, NV, Genesis, TFD and its sphere of influence, and AZTEC. Whether or not they're "moralist" is irrelevant. That's the general perception on PB's side.
Ah yes, you mean there is a tiny opposition that is utterly dwarfed by Pandora's Box, and may get rolled if PB gets bored enough.
-
This is a completely flawed analysis of current events. The world is currently in the process of dividing into moralist and non-moralist sides.
Who's the moralist side?
Seriously. There aren't any alliances with more than about twenty members that are actually moralists.
This has been the case for some time. Eventually you're going to get a war between Polar and friends, and PB. NPO isn't exactly close with PB, so either you'll be on Polar's side, or you'll be rolled at some other point in the future.
And NPO is completely close with Polar and have always gotten along with them too.
If you're right, then it's just a matter of time before Polar gets rolled anyway, NPO support or otherwise.
-
Aye that it was, my point still stands.
Your point being that people who post pornographic images in areas where minors are encouraged to view them get shut down by the FBI?
-
It's not as long as the people on that list, but Jorost has been our leader since January 19th, 2009.

Incidentally, I was also user #666 on the MHA's original forums.

Less damage only means longer wars.
Yeah, this sounds like it makes sense. It's not true though.
Before Karma, a long war was like two weeks. Now they go on for months.
-
Logs don't show people who don't talk.
Yes, they do.
That's what join, part and quit lines are for.

lol this is your backpedal, try not to trip next time. Your response to this is that one member in the channel from Invicta wasn't high gov. Brilliant criticism.
No, my response is that the only member in the channel from Invicta wasn't high gov.
This is something of a difference.

How much damage was there on the car?
You could probably get a judgment against him in small claims.
He might be broke, though, which would make the judgment worthless.
