  1. And we would have gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for that meddling Stewie!
  2. Is that really the best you can do? Thoroughly comical though it may be, the propaganda geared toward making TOP appear a vicious puppetmaster is a tad flattering; we're glad so many people think so highly of our oratorical abilities. That said, trying to sway opinion by accusing alliances of being manipulated is exactly the sort of maladroit bumbling I'd expect from the poster to whom I'm currently responding; implying that people are mindless dunces isn't likely to make them feel friendly (of course, this would require them to care about what he says in the first place, and they almost certainly don't).
  3. Unfortunately for your argument, our involvement in that conflict was relatively minor in scale and did not include war against your alliance.
  4. You're not even nearly the propagandist you've always believed yourself to be. That fact is in very clear evidence here. Give it up, Steve. This is a minor point, but you've been around a long time, and during that entire time I don't think you've ever seen TOP try to emulate NPO in anything. You've finally succeeded in bludgeoning me into agreement through sheer force of self-righteousness! I now subscribe to your point of view! ...
  5. Ladies and gentlemen, you heard it here first from Steve Buscemi, renowned bastion of truth and objectivity. With that, I appear to have exhausted my sarcasm reserves.
  6. Those are legitimately strange words for a guy whose side has already lost.
  7. Those on NPO's side will agree with the OP, those on the other side will disagree. This reality is almost certainly lost on him, and he no doubt wrote his lengthy and thoroughly pointless monologue under the rather conceited impression that with it he could effect some significant change of opinion. Wrong. Though this is clearly lost on some present, public complaint about the presentation of undesirable terms is, in a very general sense, more likely to stiffen the spine of the other party than to effect a reduction in the severity of those demands. Perhaps if the OP and his cohorts had not chosen to immediately take to the streets in comically self-righteous fury but had instead elected to continue dialogue in private, the lot of their alliance may have been lessened. This very basic concept is one they apparently find impossible to comprehend.
  8. TOP is once again using its puppets in TOP to fight against TOP's enemies whilst TOP sits on the sidelines. Turpitude, I tell you!
  9. Kampfgruppe DragonAspect has proven its superiority once more.
  10. Speaking of talking out of one's ass, everyone's still waiting on TIO and NATO! An attack on one is an attack on all, right?
  11. This looks like the fevered raving of someone in the advanced stages of Pink Elephant Syndrome.
  12. Your persistent claims of irony are generally not accompanied by any explanation of just what that irony is.
  13. You're part of an alliance that spent years doing precisely that. Were you not around then, or are you simply lacking in self-awareness? Haha. Is that drivel really the best you can come up with?
  14. Don't you think you should maybe offer more than $100 million? $100 million isn't exactly a lot of money these days. VirtuCon alone makes over nine billion dollars a year!
  15. Dajobo accused NPO of protecting large numbers of top-tier nations in peace mode during every war. Never did he say that these were always the same nations. Not even an idiot would ever claim that the likes of Arcades and Kingdom of Dark are habitually absent from war. The top-tier nations that NPO has kept in peace mode during this war are simply the group of nations that were selected for protection in this particular conflict. How you have entirely missed the essence of his argument is beyond me.
  16. Welcome to a losing war. Furthermore, your chosen reference point was highly arbitrary. Our average NS on the eve of war was well in excess of 50K, and it therefore stands to reason that a large percentage of our nations would still be above that mark; as such, your statistics have precisely no relevance. As I said just a few minutes ago: for obvious reasons, it's far too late to be making that sort of argument. And once again, the vacuous fixation on irrelevant numbers to the exclusion of the point at hand. By the way, exactly who is complaining? And at what point did I become an alliance?
  17. Get to the crux of the matter: point out all of the 100K+ nations we've protected in peace mode with the excuse that they're banks. With NPO having already claimed repeatedly that the large nations in question are being protected as banks, you're more than a bit too late to be making that argument.
  18. See above. Nobody is stupid enough to eat up this idiotic logic. But hey, if you want to go this route, let's do it. Go through that list and compare it to yours in terms of nation strength, tech level, activity, the works, and get back to me. I don't think you will do that, because you wouldn't like the results. As Dajobo has said, we've never deliberately secreted any number of top tier nations in peace mode; our top tier always fights in as close to its entirety as member activity allows. The same cannot be said for your alliance, one with a long history of ensconcing large numbers of top-tier nations during wartime.
  19. Exactly how many times are you going to try to push this line before you'll realize that people aren't retarded? Looking purely at number of nations and utterly excluding the size and potency of those nations from the equation makes about as much sense as me offering to pay my dentist in unnamed units of currency. Rarely are numbers alone the entirety of the story, and that maxim certainly applies here as well. The majority of our nations that have remained in peace mode throughout the war are small nations that have no tech and do hardly anything beyond sending it out, and the rest belong to inactives. NPO put dozens of nations, including 17 of strength 100K or above, into peace mode for the entire war with the avowed purpose of protecting them from damage. So we have this: small nations versus big nations. Incidental versus deliberate. And so on. Either you're too dense to make this distinction yourself, or you're firmly confident in some supposed sense of vast intellectual superiority over everyone around you. Whatever the case may be, all you're accomplishing is making yourself appear a foreigner to logic and reason. Are you perhaps unable to make this distinction yourself?
  20. The degree of attention and significance you lavish upon us, frenzied, uninformed, and generally nonsensical though it may be, is flattering. Thank you. What conflict of interest? Also, your claim---as is becoming the general case for everything you say---has neither substance nor sense. Is "We'll go with the consensus" really so difficult a concept for you to comprehend? Err... what????
