kaliph Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 TOP can pay the reps. they arealso the aggressors so they should be paying reps anyways. you cant just start punching people in the face and thnk you can get away with it. either way, i honestly dont care, its either top will crumble over the next few moths, or they wil pay the reps and the war is over.

[/quote] I'd say inflation works the other way around. Being destroyed 4 years in is much more costly than being destroyed 2 years in. 50% of 160k tech is much easier to pay than 50% of 600k tech. If you asked for money directly that is more subject to inflation as nations make more. So far as I'm aware nations can't import drastically more tech than 2 years ago, so no inflation.

Crowdog07 Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 [quote name='TonytheTiger' date='02 March 2010 - 03:04 AM' timestamp='1267520966' post='2211118'] Why would an alliance that has been preparing to be on the wrong end of a curbstomp since the WUT started turning on itself pay record setting reps? The fact is that a month on, TOP is still giving as good as we are getting, still has over 1k nukes, and still has warchests which will last us for many months more. Why should TOP peace out when we are just that well suited to a long war? It's getting to the point where CnG is just wagging a war of tech extortion. A loosing war, I might add. As any reps we eventually may agree to will most certainly be a fraction of the damage already done. The longer it goes on now, the more damage TOP does to CnG in disproportionate amount, so I don't understand them waiting a month to offer us terms we will obviously reject. It's a long term game though, so is it better to accept reps designed to extort tech and damage the alliance or fight on and continue the campaign? [/quote] I just spied a TOP nations money. It only destroyed 4 million. You do the math. It's good for us anyways. A poll on accepting consequences should mean if both consequences are bad you admit you did something wrong. And when you low ball your reps counter offer like you did I hope you never get free again. $%&@ TOP. You're just lucky Archon is in charge of doing MK's reps because if it were me, C&G would be accepting millions of tech or you'd never get freedom. Get off your high horse you pompous $@!, you screwed up and you did it to the wrong people. Deal with it. I have no sympathy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NPO was told all kinds of things, and refused several offers, until they reached terms they could live with. The terms were harsh - but the terms a month earlier were far worse. FAN never excepted terms, and they took a beating for a long time, but when it's all said and done, they never paid reps, never surrendered. I believe it's in their own interest for TOP/IRON to reach some terms - but I can certainly understand why they wouldn't immediately roll over and say "We'll send you money and tech forever", either. I haven't actually seen what offer was made, but I know there was an offer and that they haven't been willing to accept it. You can take a hard line "We'll never lower the reps, take them or fight forever" stance, I suppose - but you'll take a lot more damage if you do. For now, it looks to me like both sides want to keep fighting. [quote name='Crowdog' date='06 March 2010 - 12:32 AM' timestamp='1267857404' post='2215727'] $%&@ TOP.

Fixing a timeline so you can finish your reps in a set timeframe would hardly be a sticking point for most alliances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
