USMC123 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/zh5UL.png[/img][/center] Howdy all, Just letting everyone know that Tetris will be perform a small policing action on the Peoples Republic Of Independent States. One of their nations rogued one of ours, and they have failed to respond to the ultimatum we issued. We have also invited our allies to engage them at their will seeing as the alliance is all sub 7k NS nations. In addition to this, we are issuing individual surrender terms to all enemy combatants. The terms are as follows: [quote] -Resign from the Peoples Republic of Independent States -Change their alliance affiliation to "Tetris POW" -In order to leave the Tetris POW AA, they must join an alliance of their choice that we approve of.[/quote] Through this, we hope that the nations in this alliance can learn from their mistakes as well as join an alliance that will help them play and enjoy the game more. That is all. signed for Tetris, USMC123, Game Developer Ali5541, Project Manager and Programmer of the Matrix Kenfolk GTS, Programmer of Foreign Affairs Hereno, Programmer of Game Patent Tank4ever, Programmer of Line Completion and Components Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaiar Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Doing this to a small alliance makes you feel important? Powerful? It just shows you lack size where it counts. A rogue that is 1,199.474 NS and you're going all out with an announcement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloin Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Are you really forcing an alliance to disband over 1 rogue? Or did I just read that wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcortell Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 That nation has 3 days of AA seniority and is 31 days old... You really think you need to try to disband the rest of the AA? Things that make me go, "Hmmmm..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMC123 Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) Last time people didn't post, people cried about it. Get over it. e: It's a 14 man AA whose leadership disappeared overnight. Rather than have the nations all disappear from the game, we are attempting to help them have a real go at CN.

garcia Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 This is stupid on so many levels. Tetris, aid your kid nation $3mil/2k soldiers and that rogue is taken care of. Your ultimatum and your terms are excessive. Try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlmightyGrub Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I have insufficient sarcasm left in the cupboard to properly address this announcement. Good work, create fear and loathing in the new nations and watch them choose elsewhere to idle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't really think this announcement was going to receive hails did you? You should just retract the entire announcement and deal with that "rogue" individually. Try again.

Daisy Mae Mac Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 This is kind of ruthless. Not sure how I feel about it. I hope this AA doesn't have to disband because of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Chele Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 There's still time, edit all of your posts to reflect that you are policing an individual rogue! I know you think that you aren't "disbanding" an alliance (that is literally so small you can't disband them yourselves without help from allies with smaller members) just because you're asking all of the members to surrender individually and go elsewhere, but what is the difference? What was your ultimatum? I can't imagine that it was reasonable, since you admit that they are all tiny and have zero leadership. Just deal with your rogue instead of tacitly inviting raiders to do your work for you over what was probably more a reaction to a vulgar PM response than the actual rogue.

Leniency is not disbanding that alliance and making all fight for the actions of one rogue. You took a dump on your allies first with this announcement. You really made my argument for me. You're not clever after all. Try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just ignoring our PMs altogether, and we asked for 50 tech (less than three mil, and not really unreasonable after the repeat attacks/lack of peace etc).
