[quote name='MCRABT' timestamp='1353325253' post='3054475'] The fact is I have defended our treaty for years. It was Crymson and I that arranged our campaign against CnG, I was President of IRON and actively facilitated the attack on Polar and I was the main proponent supporting your request for assistance against Sparta even in light of concerns from our DR allies. [/quote] Confirming this. It'd be very off base to say that IRON backing you in the last war was at all politically convenient for them, when it upset just about everyone else they were close to [i]besides[b] [/b][/i]you. If you guys want to know why they canceled, you really need to look closer to home.

Good luck.

Congratulations friends.

[quote name='Farnsworth' timestamp='1348727010' post='3034675'] Edit: SF! reacts positively to the news, but I cannot quit thinking that this is a grouping that GOD would have scorned not too many months ago... Then again, they are as of yet silent on this bloc. [/quote] ? We're either allied with or pretty damn close to everyone in this bloc, and only App is 'recent' by any stretch [since most of the relationship developed stomping NG's ass in the last war together, the others predate it] - why the hell would we scorn it? Congratulations guys.

o/ I love it, congratulations you two.

[quote name='VladimirLenin' timestamp='1348267216' post='3032879'] Rush and Os themselves never did much to impede the idea, so I suppose the rest of us took it as acceptance. But yeah, I did believe the folks in the other CnG alliances who said they'd help get it going. Naivety I suppose; nobody really wants to stand up to Dear Leaders Who Always Know Best™. [/quote] Welp, sorry you learned this one the !@#$%* way.

[quote name='OsRavan' timestamp='1348255439' post='3032818'] -Talking about everything except what I actually mocked you for- [/quote] It is exceedingly normal to ask for backup, however, the frantic and downright panicked nature in which you did so when up against our side last war was very very amusing, to say nothing of how incredibly [i]upset[/i] you were that you had actually been hit back when it came time for peace negotiations. Not even on our level, Os - not hypothetically, not really. That you're probably the smartest individual in C&G just says a lot about your company at this point.

[quote name='VladimirLenin' timestamp='1348079837' post='3031886'] It is not nonsense to believe that an alliance has the power to make its own decisions. I see nowhere in the text of the Union that states that any member alliances gives up that sovereign right. It has an implied intel clause of course, but all that would require is that we inform you so as you can prepare yourselves, not solicit your opinions. The war council vote [i]had[/i] been locked up. Trot wasn't lying. And the fact that we made the decision that you didn't prefer bugged the !@#$ out of you, and you went whining to Craig who in turn whined to Trotsky, and when that wasn't working as well as you'd hoped, appealed to our membership, with half of the argument being about simply "bad timing." Not surprising in retrospect that just like MK was lying to us, so were you. Bad timing my arse. You had no intention of ever actually letting us weigh the options and make our own decision. Hell, it was a toss up even without CnG's !@#$%*ing. Someone vehemently against the council's decision would have started a vote to override it anyway. [/quote] Glad to see you jumped ship. We've known each other for a while so do me the favor of an honest answer - did you [i]really [/i]believe Rush and Os and co when they said you'd be given the opportunity to make your own decision on this in time? [quote name='OsRavan']By this logic CnG is also attacking MK in two months, and GOD immediately after MK.[/quote] You didn't finish: and then immediately after attacking GOD, ODN is whining to everyone and their mothers for backup because owwie it hurts, just like last time.

Very cool, Kerbs'll be a good AC.

Good luck guys. Sad to see Wolfpack go.

[quote name='Ernesto Che Guevara' timestamp='1344131881' post='3018639'] Can you imagine how many sandbags we'd need to prevent basement flooding from the tears the OWF would inevitably spew if we charged reps? These days, if you win a war, you're supposed to walk away with white peace and let the losing side pretend the won for the next few months. If you don't, you're evil. [/quote] [quote name='Ayatollah Bromeini' timestamp='1344134829' post='3018672'] If having allies on every different side of a conflict ties your hands a bit, you're also evil.

Congrats guys! Movin' right along.

Never thought I'd see it. A respectful goodbye to my longtime rivals, good luck in your new home.

Enjoy CCC
