James Barnaby Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 (edited) Now, first of all, I know I will receive quite a bit of flak from the International Community of Bob, however, I think it is for the best of everyone to think things through, and at least to get a message across. [b] Now consider these:[/b] -What once started in the Second Unjust War, was between Polaris, and the alliance of \m/. Now, both of them are fighting on the Complaints and Grievances side, yet they were who initially were fighting against each other. Irony much? -The alliances who have declared peace and have effectively left the world war, will surpass us in strength and will become the new world powers, whilst we blow each others brains out. [b]So this is my simple decree:[/b] End the war. Everyone. White peace, it's plain and simple, and the smart move for everyone. If not, we're in a way, fighting against everyone who is in peace mode right now, and all alliances who are in peace.. and we're losing. [b]Please Note:[/b] I do not speak on behalf of the Mostly Harmless Alliance.

Mathias Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 IT'S SO SIMPLE! END THE WAR, THAT'S HOW YOU END THE WAR! You sir are just... I can't even describe what an excellent, excellent statesman you are. To think that the alliances who declared peace have effectively left the war astounds me. And I never realized that Polaris and \m/ are now fighting on the same side! That's CRAZY! For I was blind but now I see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Barnaby Posted March 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 (edited) Ah, but you mustn't forget... I meant to post this under world affairs, not here. ...and War is much more fun when it's blatantly one sided, and doesn't last that long. On the other hand, why not draw more people into the war then. Make everyone take part in the war of the century.

War is fun when there's no risk of losing? If only this was a world where the only alliances attacked had no way of defending themselves, and anyone who tried to help them risked having their alliance destroyed as well.

rrkilledme Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 (edited) First, to clear up and misconceptions- let the record reflect that, as a member of an MK Protectorate (Darkstar), I am 100% behind CnG in all their actions; my posts should be read and treated as such. The war ending in a stalemate does nothing. If both sides declare white peace right here, right now, then both remain somewhat strong- and therefore a danger to each other. In other words, CnG not finishing beating down TOP (or vice versa) means that the latter will simply come back and bite again. Wars usually end with a shift in power, at varying magnitudes. This one ought to as well. Edited March 4, 2010 by Worf93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
