Lanore Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Charles I made the thread just a little bit ago on GATO's boards. I'd have made it last night but I've been busy.

Brenann Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 [quote name='Pingu' timestamp='1330904839' post='2933418'] Nice plan, but you don't want a treaty with us. Apparently we're You'll have to talk to GATO, if you can get past the wall of arrogance(TM). [/quote] Wait so you mean when someone from outside our alliance opens their mouths about our alliances its the truth of what is actually going on inside said alliance?? Here I was operating under the delusion that alliances were sovereign entities that got to make their own choices and decisions. Silly me. By the way there should be a fresh stock of fish cakes delivered shortly to your Embassy in Francograd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cataduanes Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 [quote name='Roquentin' timestamp='1330898982' post='2933376'] Simply calling them weak-ass assumptions doesn't mean anything. Myth made the rest of the points for me. Who is in gov and who isn't doesn't really matter because the most vocal people are the athenians and some of the LOST members do like to trash talk.[/quote] Perhaps but then again you spouting weak-ass assumptions doesn't mean anything either, as for those who are most vocal are you basing this on the replies in this thread? or have you complied a comprehensive breakdown of TLR posts and relevant stats to back that up? somehow I seriously doubt it. [quote] At the end of the day, TLR is an extension of the Mushroom Kingdom's influence whether you like it or not. This does not mean there is some form viceroyalty over TLR, it simply means TLR is part of the Mushroom Kingdom's sphere. [/quote] Wow talk about stating the obvious, it is not exactly a stretch for even the semi-informed to reach that conclusion seeing as we are tight with MK. Have you got anything factual and ground breaking to release into the world or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pingu Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 So much confusion could be avoided if those of you using the words simply explained that when you say 'proxy' or 'lackey' you mean 'close ally'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the rebel Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 [quote name='Devilyn Caster' timestamp='1330898807' post='2933374'] Kamichi did spend time in Athens, so I will concede that. However since Corrupt started CN in =LOST= I threw him in as a =LOST=er. And besides, what qualifies these people as "Athenian" in your mind? I think what should matter is where you've spent the most time, not if you were ever a part of the AA at a given time.[/quote] Kamichi was an original member of the merger that created Athens, hell he even took charge in organising the rep payments after NoCB. Corrupt merged into Athens from that micro alliance (can't remember for the life of me what it was called) I believed he lead and got given a high government position. "Athenian" in my mind is those who first flew the banner, those that merged into the banner, those that joined and stayed and those that served in its government. Anyways it seems there is a difference of opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
