Arrnea Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I sense the rick-roll is strong in this link. It's actually not a rickroll. Probably the ONE link on SCM's hosting that isn't a Rickroll or from the arse of the internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrnea Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 You honestly didn't think the dissent within NPO was apparent or did you all just want to hear it from the horse's mouth once and for all? Oh the fact that there was dissent was apparent, but now we have an idea of who's pushing in what direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpoiL Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Very interesting [20:34:56] <+essenia> what about ivan?[20:35:00] <+essenia> and NSO? [20:35:54] <+Zhadum> NPO doesn't trust NSO, figures they are out to kill them at some point [20:36:11] <+Zhadum> Ivan gets the same treatment [20:36:08] <Aleks> NSO is stagnating fast Z'ha [20:36:56] <Aleks> There's too much pride at stake there for them to disband though Dear Aleks, We don't plan on exiting the stage. Dear NPO, oh what could be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nedved I Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) [20:55:17] <Katzith|Polaris> Were NPO genuinely interested in befriending Legion?[20:55:31] <+Zhadum> Depends on who in the NPO you spoke to [20:55:49] <+Zhadum> Some wanted us to milk them and kill them, some wanted to befriend them [21:46:13] <Katzith|Polaris> Legion?[21:46:19] <+Zhadum> Legion is still my favorite [21:47:02] <+Zhadum> When I was Viceroy they were great to work with, good people genuinely willing to make sacrifices for the good of their alliance and people who live up to their word I feel so loved... well not so much the first one, but the 2nd one is great.

Jack Diorno Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) How does this deviate from what we already know about the NPO?They keep secrets away from their general membership. Check. They want to build quietly and become a power once more. Check. There was a huge coup and argument between Sponge and Moo. Check. bigwoody acts tough and then bails on the NPO. Check. (I hope most of you now realize this) Things we already knew about the UJW and WoTC unless you were completely clueless. Check. People bored. Check. Agree, but there are points in this that NPO refutes on a regular basis, now there are logs of an IO admitting it, so this makes for less headaches arguing with a clueless NPO member, just refer them to the logs. All hail the logs. EDIT: i remove my clothes, very very slowly. Edited September 27, 2009 by Jack Diorno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehChron Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I wasn't there at the time but if Zhadum is reading this, I must admit I'm curious if you could be more specific about how Triyun's "strategy" worked and how it $%&@ed the Order over. Wasnt he specific in the logs, John? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some-Guy Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 can i request a short version of the short version? The NPO is diseased at the top and incurably obtuse in its FA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEraser Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 do you mean to tell me that the NPO basically orchestrated the 2nd great patriotic war!?!?!?!?!? inconceivable!!!! even though a lot of this was common knowledge these were interesting as far as the specific info goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sal Paradise Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) NPO leadership is incompetent, they misjudged their position during the Karma war, NoCB was engineered by NPO, DM and Bilrow were fast-tracked into leadership, the BR is kept in the dark about everything. The most interesting and revelatory thing about all this is that there isn't anything interesting or revelatory in this.

TehChron Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Interesting read. Not what Id expect from Zha. Im surprised they decided to cut him loose, to be honest. He's too much of a !@#$% to go quietly, and they basically lost their best remaining troll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style #386 Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Awesome summary. I heard I was supposed to read them and got slapped with a huge mess of logs and side conversations. This is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shahenshah Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) Awesome summary. I heard I was supposed to read them and got slapped with a huge mess of logs and side conversations. This is great. You could consider the full logs, it does have some stuff about ODN and you're mentioned by name, I think something about you and Vox/Blackstone . Cant recall now the exact details.

Delta1212 Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Alright, while most of this wasn't really new information, I was not aware NPO was counting on Fark. That part was pretty hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sal Paradise Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I liked the bit about Invicta being the best allies. Actually, I must say that's one thing that was interesting in those logs. Not that Invicta is NPO's best ally, but that NPO knows this. In other words, watch your backs Invicta.

Seerow Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Im surprised they decided to cut him loose, to be honest. He's too much of a !@#$% to go quietly, and they basically lost their best remaining troll. Well he's also the one of the last remaining member of the old guard as far as I remember. There may be one or two others, but mostly innactive. Most of the active government from when the NPO started have been stepping down or otherwise filtering out one by one over the years. Zha obviously had issues with the way things were going, so it's not unrealistic to see him get knocked down a peg. Though Moo really should have anticipated the backlash that letting someone like Zha go on such a bad note would cause. I would however be interested to see Moo's take on what has been said here. Of course, Zha mentioned the new FA strategy is to make NPO not seem as big and scary as it has been in the past. This could all just be a clever ploy, by having Zha leave and spill a bunch of tidbits people had wanted to know, but don't make any real difference except reducing the NPO's mystique, it makes the NPO seem a bit less glorified, a little more real, and serves that purpose very well. It lets people who are not a part of the NPO realize that just like any other alliance they have their internal issues, and the strong front presented is a mask that they wear well.

Homura Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Alright, while most of this wasn't really new information, I was not aware NPO was counting on Fark. That part was pretty hilarious. I've always felt it was a mistake for NPO to have signed treaties with Fark, Monos Archein, FOK and Ragnarok. They didn't have truly close relations with any of these alliances, who all turned around to bite Pacifica in the $@!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrnea Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Alright, while most of this wasn't really new information, I was not aware NPO was counting on Fark. That part was pretty hilarious. Yes, that was amusing. I want to know what the HELL gave them the impression that Fark would fall favorably to them. Seriously, that's like assuming pre-Karma GGA would ally with MK then attack Echelon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
