Going to miss you, man. Good luck out there.

I'm sure a lot of people are offended by your flag. Not only is it offensive in nature, it is also off-center. Have fun with those wars.

Good News everyone, you are now reading this pleasant topic in the voice of Hubert J. Fanrsworth.

[silence] (Thinking OOC: inb4...oh gosh darn it)

So good an alliance I joined before this was posted.

Neutral popcorn- always a good decision! (well unless it's stale popcorn, then you need a new bag of it) (obligatory inb4 mogar)

Come again? (While the specific person in question was not forced out, that message strongly implies, no, ASSURES that you guys will be a forced recruitment alliance) (also, I changed my mind about reforming GENIUS in round 5, I want to test some nation building techniques in TE again. Read the post after this, and I think I have been overreacting to IDIOT being in round 5, so yeah lol I won't reform GENIUS unless it's just a playful foil to IDIOT in some other round)

lol IDIOT, when will you ever learn that no one likes being forced out of their alliance by your antics despite what you guys give them in exchange for their sovereignty.

Maybe you forgot you nuked someone...?

They'll be having fun today, won't they?

interesting development there, gl to both of you (also, inb4 mogar. Sorry, had too)

Things just keep getting more and more interesting for round 5- can't wait to see how things turn out.

awesome

But what about Joe/Jane who can only get on at a certain time a day and will be unavailable for one of the updates?

Whatever you guys feel like doing.

In other news, GENIUS will also be in the next round

Aw nuts :(

EDITED OUT BY ORIGINAL POSTER

GENIUS would like to join Genius in this war since the only person under the GENIUS AA now has a decent chance of doing some good damage to some IDIOT members

@ jerdge(warning! this reply containts OOC!): No, I just really like the history of Italy and it's city-states from way back. It's a game anyway, so I may as well RP as something I'm interested in. @ bama: I intend on fighting as long as I'm able in CN:TE; to quit would be to, well, just that, quit. To let IDIOT gain complete control of TE would be dull and boring as well, so why let them?

lol I should put a tl;dr version in there, thanks for the reminder and sorry for not having done so at first. also, lol, while your version of the tl;dr for this is funny it's not very descriptive, so I won't be using it

Well being forced into an alliance you don't want to be part of in the first place kinda stinks, dosn't it? Besides, IDIOT will end up owning TE if they aren't stopped now; where would the fun be in that?

Too late (@ bama: yes this was intended as a serious topic)

Haha ok.

Dear IDIOT, Your "Search and rescue" policy is no more than extortion. To threaten other TE players with ZI in order to make them join you is a very dishonorable thing indeed. Fellow non-IDIOT TE players, will you actually stand for this extortion and let IDIOT make the game less fun for you? Will you let them own the game, and make it impossible to be in any other AA without fear of being forced to join them if you want to be in top 100 list? I, for one, refuse to give in to this extortion. To change your AA to IDIOT because of their new policy would be giving them your nation. Will they really care if you join them? Of course not, otherwise they wouldn't be threatening to ZI you. I am fully aware that most likely only a few people will join me in my endeavor, but that dosn't discourage me from making this topic. I would rather be ZI'd under a different AA, instead of switching to an AA under which I would not be with any of my friends. I wonder, how many others will be forced to choose between abandoning their friends and being ZI'd? How many other nations will be forced to abandon all hope of having fun in their own alliance, without having to join the currently most powerful one? How many nations will refuse to stand for this, and join me in the fight against IDIOT's new policy? I refuse to hide in the face of this; my nation ruler name is Gian Visconti in CN:TE. If you wish to join me in this protest against IDIOT's "Search and rescue" policy, but you don't want to make your current AA a target for IDIOT, then change your AA to "GENIUS", for "Great empires [of] notably Intelligent understandable superheroes" If any AA wishes to join the fight against IDIOT's policy, please contact me. As founder of GENIUS in TE round II (I am notaware atm of there being a 'GENIUS' AA in TE before this), I announce GENIUS's declaration of war against IDIOT because of their "Search and Rescue" policy. Since I declared war on two people a few days ago before this anouncement and they haven't accepted peace, my previous AA will be shown. I implore all people who choose to raid me because of this topic, please, PLEASE do not bring them into this, since I have made this anouncement outside of their AA. I do not know what their decisions will be, nor do I wish to get them mass-raided by anyone because of my own independent actions. tl;dr : IDIOT's "S&A" policy has generated a protestor and an anti-IDIOT alliance currently with only one member lol.
