SirWilliam Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) [quote name='HHAYD' timestamp='1300753546' post='2672724'] Why am I not surprised? [/quote] I'd guess because we've said it or alluded to it numerous times. [quote name='HHAYD' timestamp='1300753546' post='2672724'] First: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ally http://www.thefreedictionary.com/ally [/quote] [OOC: Real world applications that don't match up with CN's do not hold up. Case in point: the above. In CN ally has a very concise meaning, and in this context NoR and GOONS are not allies. Simple as that.] [quote name='HHAYD' timestamp='1300753546' post='2672724'] Second: GOONS also has DH's and their allies' backing. Your receiving both military and financial assistance, and your side outnumbers NPO's side. [/quote] Yes, our side has far more resources at its disposal than yours. Your point? Mine was that NPO has been receiving assistance just as GOONS has (even if in different forms), and that's irrefutable.

Maelstrom Vortex Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) [quote name='Emperor Marx' timestamp='1300707402' post='2672133'] He finally catches his mistake. Deflect! Deflect! Navigation, full engine power to reverse! Go now, damn it! [/quote] No mistake. Jokes do not tend to have tactical objectives. This had a tactical objective and could affect the outcome of some conflicts by.. well.. starting them. That said, it was hardly a joke. It was a great failure though. Real joke is on them.

Ninja Colt Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 [quote name='Brehon' timestamp='1300752913' post='2672716'] This kind of crap simply doesn't belong out here. Message was sent, some view it as underhanded or a lame tactic certainly while others find it in great humor. I am not about to debate which is right. The point is this thread has no business being here as anyone who "falls" for it deserves whatever happens to them next. Frankly Pacificans needs to stop feeding this post even though it was started by one of our own. [/quote] It's a shame there aren't more like you.

[/quote] No, this was done for fun, if NPO came out of peacemode it was just an added bonus. Trust me, like I said, I've done it myself. [OOC] It may come as a surprise but this is a game, and the idea behind playing a game is that you have fun. [/OOC] And BEazy, yeah, I still talk to him.
