Ernesto Che Guevara Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 [center][img]http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh39/Space_cuba/EuropaFlag2-1.png[/img] [/center][center] [/center][center][b]Position Appointment[/b][/center][center] [/center][center]People make mistakes. Mankind isn't perfect. I've learned to respect that, and accept that things will happen. However, rabbits are supposed to be infallible. The recent episode with Mogar, spying, and blueballing can be placed squarely at the foot of Mister Attila the Bun. I know he was trying, but that isn't good enough. The pressures of office have gotten to him, and last night he asked me to replace him. [/center][center] [/center][center]The hiring process was long and tiring. Many questions were asked. Among them, the most pressing of questions:[/center][center] [/center][center](Caution: Language [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05vc54bsAdo"]http://www.youtube.c...h?v=05vc54bsAdo[/url])[/center][center] [/center][center](Had the answer been no, he would not have been appointed)[/center][center] [/center][center]At the end of the day, one man stood out. The man with the plan. And a child. Congratulations to [b]O-Dog[/b] on his appointment as Minister of Defense of this awful alliance.[/center][center] [/center][center]Also, while I have your attention, as per my authority, I am hereby clearing Mogar from his surrender terms (those outlined on the GOONS mercy boards). Mogar has shown himself to be eager to complete the terms, and has proven himself to have remorse for his actions. We hold no ill-will against him. [/center][center] [/center][center]I'd like to thank our allies for supporting us in this recent hiccup. To Invicta for hitting Mogar when we were too stunned to move (Mogar wasn't on a war list, we hadn't even leaked that intel yet, how could we hit him?), and to our allies in GOONS for coming up with the deliciously fun terms. [/center][center] [/center][center]Almost as important, thank you to our potential foes in NSO and RoK for being so understanding and gentlemanly. I'm sort of sad war didn't happen; we'd have killed with kindness.[/center][center] [/center][center]That's all. Have a nice day. Or don't.

Wu Tang Clan Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Congrats guys. Too bad we didn't get to fight you. Good luck to O-Dog. And too bad for the rabbit. I liked it, it was all cute and cuddly and stuff. Chax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way to pass the blame onto someone else. At least Mogar is free. [/quote] At the risk of speaking for Chax, which I am perfectly sure he can do himself... I don't think he's passing the blame at all. As a leader you are always responsible for the rest of your gov. I think Chax realizes that more than anyone. I also believe that if it were up to Chax alone, the rabbit would still be in office. People make mistakes, things happen. In fact, I really don't think this was a huge mistake. I'd wager that in any given global war at least 5 alliances post their target lists in somewhere public. In fact, I know I've come across target lists before a war before. It happens. Most alliances name them something funky on google docs, so it's hard to come across, but it's still there if someone is willing to take the time and effort to search for them. You live, you learn, you move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mogar Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 First, any announcement featuring me and another CDSer is never minor! [quote name='HeroofTime55' timestamp='1318438220' post='2823519'] I laughed heartily at this. Way to pass the blame onto someone else. At least Mogar is free. [/quote] I don't think he is blaming someone else, you have to take responsiblity for your subordinates, I know this more than anyone, and I'm the most free member of our society, I don't restrict myself with your "laws" and "morals", I'm bound by my own sense of honor, nothing more.
