Those poor wiki editors. :/

Welcome to the best sphere on Bob, make yourself at home.

[quote name='SiCkO' timestamp='1295502087' post='2585267'] MDoAP > MDAP bloc? interesting.... [/quote] I've just been reading the fine print, and I don't believe the Super Friends treaty has a single thing in it against launching wars against the treaty partners of bloc members. Though I suppose it is possible they may have violated this little clause: "F. Aggressive wars commenced by any signatory against another alliance (defined as having 10 or more active members) must be made known to the other members at least 4 hours before commencing." Also, R&R and GOD both did the same thing, if I'm not mistaken.

As if anyone really doubted you guys would uphold your treaties.

I nuke-rogued Xiphosis, helped to form TGE and TSI, and that's about it. Sure I've fought in a few wars and been in government for those two alliances for ages, but to be honest I never really did anything to massively contribute to Planet Bob aside from a few lawls here and there.

I was going to guess 4mil, 100 members, and 15 score, but 1000 nukes is pretty nice too. Don't really know you guys, but it's refreshing to see such nice growth amongst all the disbandments, mergers, and assorted depressingly poor excuses for drama.

MHA lost eleven members since yesterday but gained .01 score... What?

Oh is that public information? For some reason I was under the impression that the move was a secret. What would you consider to be STA's proudest achievement as an alliance in the past year? Also, thoughts on the TGE-NoR issues?

What is your opinion on the poor state of trade availability on white? I was looking for trades the other day and the only white player with the resources I need that wasn't heading to the graveyard was Tyga.

Such a shame too see you go Jarkko! Then again I already idle in #aodb daily, so maybe not goodbye?

Nevermind.

I really don't know you guys at all, but I do know that everytime I send out my daily recruitment messages at least one person has joined LoSS within an hour of my messages. o/ Whoever the hell runs your recruitment department

I knew about this since las- Dammit xoindotnler. Congratulations guys. I would remind you that you've both just gotten the best treaty partners ever, but I'm fairly certain you all know that already.

Congratulations! Though watch your back, I fully intend on TSI passing Tetris in the rankings soon. >

[quote name='Franz Joseph I' timestamp='1293823568' post='2559384'] Cool. Someone that matters... er sorry for mistaking you for someone. Didn't mean to waste my time. Hail the Empire! [/quote] Oh hey you. Remember paranoid nazi persecution, essentially forcing disbandment of an alliance due to personal grudges, and best of all the East Afrika Corp? Every fail just gets worse and worse. And for some reason TGE decided to put you back in charge? Lo and behold, in the past two weeks your alliance has managed to lose 200K NS, dropped below 20K ANS, and your score is very close to 6.66 now. I'd rogue you, but a) you're too small for me even after losing 20K NS and b) my pixels really are worth more than you.

So here I was thinking that TGE might have turned around with new leadership and purged all the idiots and bad elements from the alliance. Then I figured out who Franz Joseph I was a reroll of. Back to hating you guys now.

[quote name='Mr Damsky' timestamp='1293583774' post='2556714'] I am pretty terrible. I'm glad the practices of an oppressive, hegemonic regime of years ago are being brought back. Really, I am. My my whatever do you mean? [/quote] I fail to see how retaliation to member poachers is bad. Certainly it's not war worthy, but it's certainly frowned upon. Combine that with the threats, which are another unarguable provocation, and the wars would seal the deal. Seems like a pretty solid casus belli, to be honest. And for $%&@'s sake, it's one helluva lot better than the piece of !@#$ CBs we've had from the opponents of the 'oppressive hegemonic regime of years ago' recently. You can question whether these wars are as described, but seeing as you have no personal involvement in the case (to my knowledge) you're really just talking out of your ass. Unless United Nations or its protector contests that the events occurred as stated, I see no reason why you should be be doing so.

First denied. Also, the cleaning services are coming next week and if we delay them much longer we'll have to hire the more expensive one with real documentation. So please revive ASAP. ;D

My proudest moment... Hmmm... I guess I'll give a few since I can't really decide. In TGE: -Helping to found the alliance following the disbandment of NIPO -Being the sole member of government in the entire alliance to vote against war with NoV -Finally leaving the alliance for good In TSI: -Helping to found the alliance (and deciding it's name ;p) after I left TGE -Utterly destroying the alliances we fought against during Karma, despite being on the side of the Hegemony (and somehow being one of the few non-Continuum alliance forced to pay reparations even after tactically winning our wars)

[quote name='Captain Flinders' timestamp='1292972747' post='2548820'] Huh, something TGE did that I can't complain about. I feel, strange. [/quote] It's very strange, isn't it? You get so used to the facepalms when they don't do something stupid it leaves you feeling odd.

[quote name='Static' timestamp='1291526727' post='2530619'] So basically GOD tore you a new one and you are trying to get at least some dignity? Ok I can see that happening. GOD vs. The Church and GOD wins. [/quote] All jokes aside, that's ridiculous. I never intended to win, I mean come on. I rogued, rogues never win in the long run. We fought each toher, and in all honesty, I did find that these guys weren't as bad as I thought. What I posted may have been fanciful and kept to the amusing reference of The Church vs GOD, but the grander meaning is true. I thought they were bad, I attacked. As I fought them, I realized they weren't all that bad. So once the war expired I contacted Xiphosis to arrange for peace. You can keep trying to make wild presumptions from a completely uninvolved perspective, but all it does is make you look like something of an idiot. Also, the wars are officially closed (damn GOD must be pretty damned active to be able to close all the wars in the little less than an hour since we agreed to peace) and I've disbanded The Church in-game.

[center][size="5"]Proclamation from The Church[/size] [img]http://i52.tinypic.com/2rwui2w.png[/img] [i][b]religion (ri-lij-uhn) n. - something one believes in and follows devotedly; a point or matter of ethics or conscience[/b][/i] The Church declared war on GOD on the 25th of November, nine days ago. As Patriarch, Founder, and sole member, I proclaimed that the leader of GOD, Xiphosis, was a heathen who needed to be brought back to the proper moral ways of Our Lord, or scourged from Planet Bob. I believed that Our Lord had sent me as His servant to carry out His will. And thus I delivered a great deal of harm onto Xiphosis and those members of GOD who defended him. These retaliating attackers were also to be considered heathens and given the full fury of Our Lord. The use of nuclear weapons was free and justified in defence of Our Lord and in attacking these supposed heathens. I fully believed that this crusade was indeed for justice and was fully supported by Our Lord. I come before you on this day, the 4th of December, to say that I was wrong. Our Lord did not command me to eliminate the heathens, but rather I had allowed the Other to deceive me into believing that I was meant to carry out this war in the name of Our Lord. In reality, Xiphosis and GOD are not the heathens that I have been proclaiming, if anything, they are just as favored in the eyes of Our Lord as most any of those that I have considered good and moral. The Other played on my prejudices against GOD and their allies, and though he did instigate my wrongful actions, that I allowed myself to be deceived so demonstrates a perhaps incorrectly tuned relation with Our Lord. I have seen now, that my prejudices, though based in some truth, do not apply as universally as the will of Our Lord. The need to pay penance for that unfortunate reasoning that led to war is clear. In my first step towards eliminating those prejudices in favor of the truth that Our Lord so willingly provides, is my declaration of reconciliation between The Church and GOD. Both sides have seen better of the other since the moment the conflict began, and to continue a war now would be harmful to each side, and would serve to benefit the Other. Now is the time for peace, mutual prosperity, and a return to the proper path set down by Our Lord. The Church was formed as a physical entity for a sacred purpose, however distorted, and it shall continue to serve following this reconciliation as a platform for the will of Our Lord to be served. However, it shall return to its state from before the beginning of hostilities, as a non-physical entity meant for the guidance of those who require help in tuning their own relations with Our Lord. Though The Church disbands this day, should the message of Our Lord require force to once more be mandated, hopefully without the corrupt influence of the Other, it shall be ready to take up the sword and fight in the name of righteousness. Thank you for your attention, and may Our Lord be with you all. Signed, [b]Lord Cyvole, Patriarch[/b] [/center]

I was in this alliance for nearly two years, and in government for almost that long. Aside from Vlad Dracula, I believe I am the only person still on Bob who came over on the date of TGE's founding from its predecessor NIPO. And I recognize all of one person in the entire government, and only a handful of the entire membership? Damn, things must have really changed. Maybe I should stop hating you guys... Maybe.

So you shout out the guy who you're defending that resulted in nuclear anarchy, but not the guy who put you in nuclear anarchy? I'm extremely offendes. All kidding aside, you've been a great opponent, and I've enjoyed my war with you. So congratulations on the milestone, and hopefully this is only the first 1000.

The might of Our Lord has cleared the devilish influences on the minds of these former heathens! To those who doubt His power, merely speak to those heathens that have been converted and be enlightened! Also, my contract requires that I say "Death to master heathen Xiphosis!" [quote]Nah. We don't get nearly enough rogues and this guy is cool. Yes, please join MK immediately Lord Cyvole please join MK. We could use someone like you. It's been pretty fun.[/quote] I must be either really good or really bad at being a rogue.
