flak attack

This is a highly underrated post.

[quote name='Vol Navy' timestamp='1358832884' post='3083189'] With the Southern Delegation not being heard from we weren't convinced MK was truly at war yet. Those Mushquedians are pretenders. [/quote] OOC: I'm working 60 hours a week right now. You'll have to settle for posts from the lesser factions for a little while instead of my glorious calls to arms. There's only so many hours a day and CN is pretty low on the priority list for the allocation these days. Sucks too, I was hoping to get more than two rounds of fighting this go around

[quote name='Ardus' timestamp='1358823529' post='3082819'] After rereading it a dozen times, it really really does. Almost meta. [/quote] It's like I'm reading a quiz post.

[quote name='Mogar' timestamp='1358788971' post='3082407'] TOP by itself was, [/quote] Fighting on the most damaging front in history was easy. You literally just said that.

[quote name='Roadie' timestamp='1358556877' post='3079084'] Yes. We're all scared of the Unstoppable Umbrella War Machine. Nobody is fooling themselves into thinking Umbrella won't output some serious damage, more than TOP in TOP/CnG, but to think they're unstoppable would be equally foolish. [/quote] You know what the difference between then and now is? Umb is fighting along with all the competent alliances. TOP just had themselves.

[quote name='Lord Levistus' timestamp='1358556544' post='3079063'] Too bad you can't have IRON and her allies do your heavy lifting this time, TOP may actually have to fight and earn any rewards. Oh whatever shall you do? [/quote] Your bio says you've been here since September 2007, but this post leads me to believe September 2012 is probably more accurate.

[quote name='Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz' timestamp='1357367502' post='3071552'] Haha, this might come in a close second. Read this and laughed, given TPF's history of being crappy backstabbing scumbags. [/quote] Seriously. Someone should ask him about TPF's exit from the Unjust War.

And just when I thought TPF has pulled out all of their best posters, this guy rolls along. Why have you been hiding this piece of political brilliance away from the world for so long?

[quote name='Masterof9puppets' timestamp='1357071713' post='3070219'] I nuked none of the 3 non-ai nations attacking me. Had they been AI, they would have received nukes, maybe (probably not though, I was mostly intent on conserving my nukes for people that I hit, topgun's SDI was good enough as it was). Would you rather six AI nations be nuked, Myth, or 3? Blah blah incoming argument about then my nukes would have been depleted quicker, damage spread, etc etc, don't care. [/quote] This is pretty much roguery 101. You pick your targets for a reason. Don't waste nukes on the counters.

[quote name='Azaghul' timestamp='1356967397' post='3069785'] NS ranges are actually very close (our top tier is a little better), but MK dominates in tech and WRCs. And this isn't the perfect indication of war time activity, but our slot usage is way better. [/quote] This. Even in a one nation on one nation fight, few MK nations wouldn't have a target.

[quote name='leeguy' timestamp='1356899539' post='3069522'] Which brings us to another point of contention, we want our tech back. More specifically I want my tech back destroyed or stolen. Either is fine with me. [/quote] Haha. You have no clue why your alliance paid that tech in the first place, do you?

Anyone that legitimately thinks TPF is anything close to a match to MK should never be allowed to make military decisions. You have barely 60% of our tech. You would get dominated.

[quote name='Ardus' timestamp='1356845474' post='3069333'] In the grace of a single post you complain of a common member's prod after making a juvenile challenge of your own, then write off a common member of your own as inconsequential. Even I am not so daring. [/quote] To be fair, compared to Alterego's, my "membership" is far from common

[quote name='Sigrun Vapneir' timestamp='1356752893' post='3068987'] If AI wants a nation hit it will be hit. My personal read is that AI is currently happy to build and ok with making reasonable accomodation to avoid war. Push a little harder and watch it all explode in your face. I personally have zero-tolerance for this micky-mouse bs, but AI has a little greater than zero tolerance. Not a lot more, just a little. Flak attack, azaghul, you two specifically I consider old friends, and I have now warned you. [/quote] That's not what I'm seeing from where I'm standing. The worst AI will do is complain and moan about us because they don't have the pair it would take to stand up and fight us.

[quote name='sir pwnage' timestamp='1356755997' post='3069015'] I believe the point was that whoever can most adeptly cast the events of the past in a light that makes them look good and others look bad will eventually triumph. The statement loses a certain flair when it's spelled out like that, but I guess some people just need the "simple English" version... [/quote] I knew someone around here would get it.

[quote name='SpiderJerusalem' timestamp='1356626904' post='3068497'] The counters is an issue. As puppets won't nuke them, we don't get to spread the nukes on more nations, and we won't get a proper stagger either. I am wondering why MK condoned this, as they surely knew that we would want to stagger them by ourselves. [/quote] Our nation is perfectly in line with our raid rules. [quote name='Buds The Man' timestamp='1356744721' post='3068952'] Dude we have existed less than 6 months so by all means lets talk. The Mighty Bank of umbrella doing MKs !@#$%* work since 2007 [/quote] Wait, I thought Umb didn't ever fight? Which is it? Does Umb always do the heavy work or are they too afraid to fight?

[quote name='supercoolyellow' timestamp='1356736499' post='3068924'] So whoever can win the argument of something about MJ and SF will then attain power? Right... [/quote] And SCY comes in to prove my point.

[quote name='Nobody Expects' timestamp='1356734640' post='3068912'] not really. [/quote] I hate to inform you, but your experience being conquered does little to assure me you know what you're talking about.

[quote name='Bob Ilyani' timestamp='1356583571' post='3068311'] On the night that DH attacked CSN, SF gov invited MJ gov into a channel, where they essentially pleaded for us to band with them and attack DH. Given that SF was on the verge of being rolled, it came across as quite humorous to the MJ gov, who really to be honest had no reason to go through with such a plan. Many laughs were had and we respectfully declined and moved on. [/quote] I remember hearing about that. It was that moment when we knew SF was going to go down with a whimper.

[quote name='IYIyTh' timestamp='1356556865' post='3068150'] This is an extremely big "what if." [/quote] That came within an inch of being true.

[quote name='shahenshah' timestamp='1355992320' post='3066246'] If we're in the same state 3 months from now, it would be time to declare on everyone buying and selling tech at 3m/50. Fight inflation. [/quote] Now there's a fight I can get behind. Fight the good fight, people. 3/100 or nothing.

[quote name='Broncoskid8' timestamp='1355960139' post='3066063'] this will be interesting... btw what's a pollmaster? [/quote] The person in charge of the Poll of the Day. [quote name='D34th' timestamp='1355970017' post='3066153'] MK and Co. say they want an even war, then make everything in their power(including harbor a spy and start an aggressive war) to avoid one. Yeah MK, we believe in you... [/quote] The fact that we want one doesn't mean we're going to give it to you. If you guys want a chance, you need to step up and earn it.

[quote name='Bill Wallace' timestamp='1355865813' post='3065441'] I was hoping to see what MK thought of VE behind closed doors. I think I know the answer, but it still would have been a laugh to see it come out here. [/quote] tbh, the answer is that we don't. Once your strange fascination with Xiph was over, we pretty much went neutral about you.

[quote name='Judge X' timestamp='1355856003' post='3065377'] Lol. MK hasn't won anything.

Judge X should keep posting. I'm pretty sure he's the strongest FA tool we could ever have.
