George the Great Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 1/4/2009 11:31:53 PM"Pre-emptive Love Fest" [Team: Black] Los Angles Ruler: Matrix M*A*S*H [Team: Black] OUTBACK Ruler: panfilo GREAT Currently Fighting At 11:31P.M. Game Time, GREAT was attacked by M*A*S*H, "pre-emptively". Luckily, we were having an IRC meeting at the time about the situation between NAAW and the aggressors alliances that attacked them and how prepared GREAT was to possibly move in to defend NAAW. Once we saw we were being attacked, those in the meeting retaliated against M*A*S*H as soon as possible. We have had issues with M*A*S*H in the past, in fact we almost went to war with them until NAAW intervened and mediated between the two of us. Now M*A*S*H is coming to us apologizing and saying this was an accident, but it certainly doesn't look accidental to me. More like intentional. Now GREAT, in order to defend herself from these attacks, and any possible further "pre-emptive" attacks, declares a defensive war against M*A*S*H. They made our decision to defend NAAW for us. We would also like to ask the help of our friends and allies in defending GREAT and NAAW from these war-mongering alliances.

We were attacked first, and then "diplomacy" was brought to the table. Had they come to us before this happened, then this whole mess could have probably been avoided, but they never did. GREAT will fight to defend her honour from the wolves. I think this video is appropriate: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liluant Islands Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 From what I can see zcads, los Angles and Sanctuary attacked 3 GREAT nations. That sort of does seem like a coordinated attack..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metal Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 May want to include this screenshot in there... Happens to be quite juicy, the first attack from either side, with NAAW being in the reason for war declaration. Looks like that gentleman jumped the gun a bit. EDIT: Henry beat me to it.

Darklink7748 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Sure looks like GREAT attacked first. If you had actually taken the time to look further into it you'd see it was actually a rogue who decided to hit 3 random alliances, including the one you're saying he was declaring on MASH to defend. http://tournament.cybernations.net/search_...&Extended=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagrr Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Yes, that was our midday attack of one nation, worked wonders. He has friends in NAAW and that happened over 12 hours before update, I didn't even know that he attacked you guys. o_OMaybe you guys should have come and asked us what was going on? Usually it is the job of the aggressor to come to the transgressed party. I can't speak for MASH. Nevertheless, it does appear clear to me that the first war between your alliance and MASH occurred over 12 hours ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm aware of what our members are ordered to do. Not what they feel like doing whenever they want. He also was tech-raiding a NAAW member which I didn't know about... o_O He's not active on the forum and is rarely in our IRC. Also, if it happened 12 hours before update and you think that that looked like an organized attack on M*A*S*H.. wouldn't you rather talk to us during that 12 hour time span and prior to your update attacking us?

I had not noticed that. Well with the especially high tensions in CN:TE, that would be all the more reason for GREAT government to quickly make an announcement declaring that nation a rogue so that all the land could see. If not at the very least quickly rushing out to inform each alliance involved. These things can escalate pretty quickly given one loose cannon. But of course I'd only actually go ahead and do that if I was looking to AVOID the war... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably should keep a better eye on em when tensions are this high. Big wars could happen if you aren't watching. The better question is like I said to Darklink is.. "Well with the especially high tensions in CN:TE, that would be all the more reason for GREAT government to quickly make an announcement declaring that nation a rogue so that all the land could see.

metal Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Or how about this... What would be way cooler, is mustering up all the testicular fortitude you can, and actually saying how you feel. Not sugar coat your reasons for war and go around and around about who did what first. Just be like "We harbor a grudge against MASH. We see their currently engaged. This would be a GREAT (see what I did) time to kick them in the teeth" "MASH, we're kicking you in the teeth now." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when you opened up your warscreen, looking for those nasty MASH aggressors, you just skimmed over that earlier attack on MASH by a member wearing your alliance affiliation? Very fishy indeed.

I find it funny, even in the face of facts you try to manipulate them to achieve your ends. MASH offensively declared on us, we're fighting back, end of story. The IRC logs later on solidify that fact to be truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted the screenshot of the first war from this GREAT/MASH war. I then said.. man if it was me.. I woulda got on that real quick and tried to declare him a rogue ASAP given the tensions in TE.

It was like two pages further, so yes, I missed it. I saw the e-mail that I had been attacked and saw found it in the wars across the globe screen. I went one page further and there was nothing else. Nevertheless, your 3 attacks with "preemptive attack" as the reason were obviously coordinated attacks. How can you misconstrue a rogue of GREAT, who also had tech raids against NAAW that I didn't know about in his war screen, with a coordinated attack. Your attacks were also right before update... his was in the middle of the day. Looks like you guys are trying to find a convenient excuse for your attack. If it was such a concern then why didn't you come to us instead of starting a war and then saying oops... lets stop now that we've attacked you... Had we known about the attack then yes, we would have declared him a rogue. You have to know about it to do that though... sucks, doesn't it? Too bad you guys weren't nice enough to bother telling us. Edited January 5, 2009 by George the Great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We come out and tell it exactly how it is, how it happened, and what's going to happen now. I'm sure you've read the two NAAW threads by now. Try it George, just say "We actually just wanted to fight MASH". It's way easier than jumping through hoops of fire. Seriously this charade is nauseating.

I never said I wouldn't like to attack M*A*S*H. I didn't get the chance to, they attacked us first. No, you sanction the top members of an alliance first, then get your allies to, and then you go and "tell it like it is". Nevertheless, we don't need a convenient excuse to defend ourselves... we just do. Frankly, I don't care who that guy is, he said that he represented M*A*S*H and it sure sounded like he did. The fact that he knew all of that information and wasn't even in M*A*S*H is even more disturbing as it makes this seem ever more planned out.

i hate cyber nations Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 To all concerned parties, M*A*S*H and her allies are still seeking peace with Naaw. They have just been shot down repeatedly. As far as the declarations earlier, both alliances (Great and M*A*S*H) know that tensions were high and were expecting a war against each other. They can argue that they had no intention of attacking M*A*S*H, but most people know that's not true. One of their members declared early in the day on ours. Then three of ours declared on them later in the day. After that there were numerous declarations back and forth. Keep in mind, many of these were not defensive retaliations, but declarations on completely random nations. Tensions are high but we'll continue talking to Great and Naaw, and to other mediating parties, to try and achieve an end to these wars before it becomes any more destructive.

So you went ahead with everything even though you didn't actually speak to a legitimate MASH government member? .... George, George, George If I find you on IRC and tell you I represent "X" alliance, can I get you to attack "X" alliance without talking to an actual member of "X" alliance as well?
