The Trail

Part one of the goons rebuild fund.

[quote name='memoryproblems' timestamp='1299299069' post='2653120'] Things such as this are so useless that they really fail to provide a reasonable return on the time you've invested in thinking it up. You probably won't get many people to buy into it, and those you do will probably be inept or they'd join a real alliance, so trying to get them to sell you tech is going to be a nightmare. But hey, if somebody as [i]competent and able[/i] as TOP and IRON want to give it a shot, by all means, show the world how its [s]not[/s] done. [/quote] I sense anger. I might even go as far as saying, U mad?

Win

[quote name='goldielax25' timestamp='1299014030' post='2648490'] If any of our allies want reps, they are entitled to ask for them. Impero may or may not have suggested not demanding reps, but if an alliance wants reps then by golly they can ask for them. [/quote] ofcourse. but it sorta makes his statement redundant

[quote name='Il Impero Romano' timestamp='1299001791' post='2648280'] Huge wall of text [/quote] Funny because last I heard you were telling one of your closely tied allies to accept white peace instead of asking for reps. And that you were pretty adamant about it. Personally I told them to take the reps because they took quite a beating (and they wanted reps too) we will see how that uncovers or if what you are saying right now is, well, you know what it is.

TL;DR: OP trying to act important, seems hurt, u mad?

[quote name='Drugsup' timestamp='1298992893' post='2648106'] No its quite alright, i'll post the logs of what i said to her, and show how CsN cant take a joke either. [/quote] I must say good sir. That made me laugh pretty hard.

[quote name='Rebel Virginia' timestamp='1298992282' post='2648091'] [color="#0000FF"]How many times did the masses speak out against NPO? For years it never amounted to something, mainly due to the NPO's savvy. Savvy that CSN does not have. While results never are immediate, they do eventually happen. CSN made a lot of enemies doing this, and unnecessarily so.[/color] [/quote] I dont think they really made enemies. They just showed their incompetence in several area's (which is only gonna hurt them FA wise and member wise. They arent gonna get any experienced members)

[quote name='Banksy' timestamp='1298509001' post='2643288'] oh, you're not here to logically debate, you're here for non sequitur one-liners. gottcha. [/quote] well ill approach it in a more logical sense then are those 20 so nations giving MK really such a hard time?

[quote name='Banksy' timestamp='1298507579' post='2643261'] Uhhh. We just went over this, the ODN is taking Legion and this lot because we don't have the lower tier coverage. They still outnumber us in the lower tier regardless of the ODN's involvement, so it doesn't make sense to spread more resources thinly. [/quote] if 20 nations are making you lose the war then I guess it makes sense?

o/ The (not so) New Guy

[quote name='Twizzler' timestamp='1298505837' post='2643228'] We're having troubles with Legion? Which part of your ass did you pull that from? I'd put money on the lower intestine. Biology tells me thats the place where the final touches are made to create the final product. [/quote] [quote name='Yankees Empire' timestamp='1298506178' post='2643231'] You see, this is funny because you don't know what you're talking about. [/quote] Im not saying that, that is what it appears like because you are only getting an additional 20ish targets which by your own accords cant hit because you dont have a lower tier. Perhaps you can assist MK by attacking alliances you can attack?

[quote name='Thrash' timestamp='1298505538' post='2643221'] Care to enlighten us where that happened? [/quote] its what CSN claims to have happened and has been hinted at by other posters in this thread.

[quote name='itseZe' timestamp='1298503180' post='2643201'] Pay attention, we've already gone over this pages ago. We don't have 340 nations in range, and we're also still fighting Legion and UINE. If you want to play the numbers game you should count the low NS nations of the participants [/quote] that doesnt change the fact that there are better targets for ODN to hit. Legion and UINE shouldnt be a problem for you with your allies backing you up and having superior numbers against them Legion is attacking / attacked by: CnG and Goons if you are seriously having troubles with Legion and cant pick a better target there is a problem with the 'network hunger machine'

[quote name='MaGneT' timestamp='1298502880' post='2643199'] blog post? Whose? [/quote] Sorry I should really put on my glasses CSN: Blog post, asking for all the reparations, only changing to give legacy some when they found out DT and by extension OWF were actually right DT: Making threats by using allies who have already white peaced and cant re-enter (from what I can gather)

[quote name='MaGneT' timestamp='1298502609' post='2643190'] I'm not being my sarcastic and insulting self here, for the record. You're a third-party observer with really no connection so I value you input. How is DT being stupid? I genuinely want to be as rational as I can through this, but as you may imagine, it's pretty damn frustrating. So I welcome reality checks. [/quote] The blog post was too much

[quote name='xoindotnler' timestamp='1298502377' post='2643185'] No, I love seeing a alliance with a ego the size of a minivan do stupid stuff like this. [/quote] Both alliances are being stupid

340~ nations versus 40 Good luck ODN fast edit: technically it is even less then 40 since there are nation in peace mode. If you want to take pressure of MK declare war on NPO? I guess that wouldnt fit the win against easy odds tactic would it?

just give eachother white peace and be done with this.

congrats guys. Orange stability and Unity for the win

[quote name='Fronz' timestamp='1297996859' post='2637178'] The Brain is not at war with DT. The Brain has never been at war with DT. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. [/quote] Extortion is extortion and right now if I was leading your alliance I would offer white peace and a firm apology (and perhaps ask for one from them if you feel a bit offended) to safe face and stop you from perhaps losing allies and / or to stop you from being told no if you try to get new treatys and allies just a suggestion.

(3 disband)

Congrats INT

[quote name='goldielax25' timestamp='1297885584' post='2635835'] Err, maybe for you guys sure, but you don't win coalition wars by cherry-picking targets like you did here. You don't take heat off of your allies by taking the target that gives you the highest opportunity for success. Maybe you should re-think that strategy if you don't want people calling you opportunistic, and then treating you like an opportunistic alliance who they want to punish for hitting the 'easy' target. [/quote] actually that is the way you take heat of your allies. Its why Goons is being attacked. Once GOONS is out of the picture they can focus on the other alliances in the war. some examples on exploiting weaknesses / oppertunities http://www.thefreedictionary.com/weak+point http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flanking_maneuver that said somebody already stated that legacy definatly wasnt the easiest target for DT to take, I have to agree with that [quote name='goldielax25' timestamp='1297887921' post='2635868'] I run the military for the alliance kicking the snot out of your buddies. Your 'years of war organization' obviously have not led to many successes it appears. Years of experience at losing and accepting losing must make you very good at losing. [/quote] I find that sorta funny. the first bit not the second bit
