[quote name='New Frontier' timestamp='1305257109' post='2711111'] I don't recall knowing you two months ago, and I promise you I have never cared enough about what you thought of me to come by and talk to you. [/quote] That’s a shame, Exodus is always looking to make new friends or just get to know other alliance in CN. I hope we never become so arrogant we feel we are too good for such courtesies. To each his own, I guess.

Join us and feel the dump

Way to go guys!! FEAR them for they are doing it right.

You are one of the best alliances out there. Congrats to you on your 2nd year. O/ DAWN UlongTime Golan

[quote name='New Frontier' timestamp='1305242152' post='2710936'] Well if they'd rather be the shielded than the shields, they made a good decision treatying GGA, they have quite a history of being fantastic meatshields. [/quote] Wow Rorschach, You of all people I would think to be above all that hurpadurp alliance2.0 bull !@#$. Some of your allies government members I consider to be close friends of mine and I always thought of Gondor as an alliance with honor and class, my how you have changed over the past two months. If you can pull your head out of your ass long enough to see past your own !@#$ come by and get to know us for who we are and not what alliance some of us spent some time in.

[quote name='Kenfolk GTS' timestamp='1305234146' post='2710835'] So it looks like moham is in anarchy and in no alliance, and never sent his tech to Ironchef. I just sent him a message, but I'm guessing that he is probably going to quit the game and a new seller is something we should be looking for... [/quote] I will not cry over it. Lets get a new guy for our 3x3 so in ten days we are ready to go again.

[quote name='William Bonney' timestamp='1305183927' post='2710576'] My condolences to whoever draws the shortest straw Ironchef. [/quote] Hell I may go just for S&G

[quote name='Sardonic' timestamp='1305174548' post='2710496'] I don't really know who Exodus are but good luck with this NSO. [/quote] We need to fix that then Sardonic. I will make sure to send over a [s]sacrifice[/s] diplomat to your forum. You are welcome to do the same.

[quote name='Steve Buscemi' timestamp='1305180706' post='2710549'] Think GGA with 7 more WRCs. [/quote] Yes Steve because we are so much like GGA in every way.

[quote name='Ardus' timestamp='1305172418' post='2710464'] You mistake my attention for condemnation and ridicule. I merely take note of a clause that I don't recall seeing a whole lot in the past. [/quote] Oh not at all. Sorry if it came off as such. It’s something I have not seen in the past as well. I think it’s going to catch on as the new black.

[quote name='Ardus' timestamp='1305170007' post='2710441'] Congrats. Interesting that waiver is written into the treaty. [/quote] How so? What’s wrong with giving a friend an easy out if they needed it? Not that a true friend would ever use it, but it’s nice to be given the option don’t you think.

[quote name='William Bonney' timestamp='1305169138' post='2710430'] Congrats to both! Hi Ironchef [/quote] Hello My WB I miss our fun time on skype.

You know I will always have the best mud for you Hippo man. This treaty is dead sexy
