[quote name='The Big Bad' timestamp='1320016735' post='2835277'] I do not need to. If you noticed when this thing started I gave Legion some credit. Now listening to them here I am getting to the point I would not mind finding a way into this and smacking some sense into them. It is almost like they want to fail. They should have just white peaced and declared they have punished Tetris and declared a victory. That would have been the smart thing to and it would have ended things on a positive note for them. Now however, they seem to be hell bent on tossing that all away. [/quote] I think there is still time for that. As I said earlier in this thread to RV. Throw punches for another ~week and call it quits.

[quote name='Ridin High' timestamp='1319936757' post='2834784'] Our plan is to stay the reasonable path, and will wish you the best post-war as well. I can assure you our prodding of Legion will not come from our alliance when we eventually come to a mutually agreeable resolution to this war. [/quote] I love the contrast of this statement with your sig.

[quote name='Lukapaka' timestamp='1319927950' post='2834726'] It's exactly what you said. I was rewriting it for emphasis. (LOL, ignorant and dumb... right.) So then you're really not upset that RIA didn't defend SOS, because tLR wouldn't have been able to attack RIA anyway? Your retort doesn't make your earlier statement make ANY more sense to me though: You've still yet to make any sense of this 'come-at-me-bro' statement. I don't get you, and I'm done caring about your logic, since you're really just some dude spouting off. Good luck and stuff. [img]http://forums.cybernations.net/public/style_emoticons/default/lol1.gif[/img] [/quote] Alright relax. Let's not say things we can't take back, Luka. I know, RIA is our beloved brethren, but relax. Deep breaths son. That said, luka and others do bring up good points. Where is this down-with-RIA sentiment spawning from, Leongsh? and is it rampant within TLR? Maybe I am missing a big piece of this puzzle, but RIA seems to be minding their own business politically. Maybe I am missing the whole purpose of this discussion, it's not a particularly coherent discussion.

[quote name='Varianz' timestamp='1319836070' post='2833970'] RV if you do not use that avatar I will kick you out of NSO. [/quote] And if he fails, I will join the NSO, elevate my status to supreme overlord and dictator, and then proceed to kick you out of NSO.

[quote name='Mergerberger II' timestamp='1319835195' post='2833947'] Well now you're just straight up lying. [/quote] I think he has been for the last two pages or so, but I have to admit, very funny to watch.

[quote name='Rebel Virginia' timestamp='1319830337' post='2833826'] [color="#0000FF"]As an alliance that has actually known hard times, rest assured, NSO does not consider you to be a "hard time." Most of us think of you and your ilk as being little more than a poor platoon of clowns.[/color] [/quote] Does this mean NSO doesn't like me? I urge you to formulate a careful response. ಠ_ಠ [quote name='Rebel Virginia' timestamp='1319831394' post='2833843'] [color="#0000FF"]This war is far from over.[/color] [/quote] HAHAHAHAHAHA, funniest post in the thread. Come on, give it like 1 more week and call it quits. Letum is right, you and legion might be friends again after this. It has happened before. Sparta treatied TPF after our skirmish way, way back in the day. I'm sure other alliances have done it too.

[quote name='Joe Stupid' timestamp='1319829601' post='2833812'] I hope i'm wrong. I want to see a different Sparta. It's not cool when alliances weasel their way out to save their stats, bruh. In 1 month we've had a treaty with NSO, we've had more communication then we did our 2 years with Sparta, just saying. [/quote] As I was saying, if you want to discuss this further, please bring it up in private chans. We've discussed this plenty, with plenty of alliances over the last however the hell many years since Karma. But frankly, it's off topic here.

[quote name='Joe Stupid' timestamp='1319828970' post='2833805'] I don't understand. You go running your mouth but avoid it all together when you get slapped back? For Sparta's sake, you should stop posting. I like them too much for this. [/quote] Bruh, I've had this arguement, and no offense, it just exhibits ignorance. It shows that you don't know us, and hence ignorance. Getting into it, just becomes tl;dr. I like RoK too, but why did you ally to NSO? You know what, *takes deep breath*. W/e. I'm cool with it. I am. I just like giving those guys a hard time.

[quote name='Joe Stupid' timestamp='1319827600' post='2833778'] To be quite honest you being in Sparta and all, you've never joined a losing war. In fact you crawled out of everyone one where it looks like you might have lost. You have no ground to stand on. I applaud alliances who go head first into a losing effort for their allies. they are the ones I want next to me when winter comes. [/quote] Ah yes, the age old down with sparta arguement. I must give credit to NSO for having the restraint and decency to steer away from this one. [quote name='Joe Stupid' timestamp='1319828445' post='2833795'] Oh so this is about personal vendetta? [/quote] OF COURSE NOT!

[quote name='Krunk the Great' timestamp='1319827741' post='2833784'] It merely means the same observation of your stupidity has been made by more than one party. [/quote] That's really interesting, because more than one party has expressed the same views as me.

I've been called obtuse by two members of NSO. Is that the word of the day?

[quote name='Wu Tang Clan' timestamp='1319826967' post='2833768'] There are several reasons to join a war without the intention of victory. Political posturing, honoring an alliance regardless of the odds (a fleeting term known as honor), and in this case to make good on previous promises; are among them. I don't think you can sell for one second that IAA tried to win this war. They had 10 offensive wars for Admin's sake. NsO, I'll tip my hat to, however. But, as a collective, they in no way fought to win this war, they simply fought to not lose. [/quote] Alright, we'll agree to disagree. I don't fully buy that, but I'll be interested to see if anyone runs with the case you have presented. [quote]Pretty much. NSO is between a rock and a [b]SF place; [/b]people have bigger fish to fry and Legion is clearly in the right to begin with.[/quote] ^^^^^I concede, I lol'd at this.

[quote name='Wu Tang Clan' timestamp='1319826647' post='2833765'] Because none of those 3 alliances had any vested interest in NSO, as you imply. Nor did they have any intention in fighting the war to "win," as you imply. NSO never asked, or even expected IAA, BTA, or NsO to come in, in fact I doubt NSO even knew that 2 out of those 3 alliances existed. Wipe the foam off your mouth. [/quote] Then why come in? I'm Wu, I join wars with an intention to lose.

[quote name='Rebel Virginia' timestamp='1319826019' post='2833760'] [color="#0000FF"]I do not know (OOC: Varianz got them from either CNtel or !@#$%* or something like that./OOC), but they had been circulating for months prior to them being given to Tetris. Who ultimately acquired those, and spied on Legion, is still in question.[/color] [/quote] I should really get a CNtel account. Idk how I have gone along this far without one, but w/e. If that's true, then it's irrelevant now I guess.
