Bob Janova Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 This is quite a lot to ask from one nation. However, considering Methrage's pattern of behaviour, it is still very fair. $3m/150 deals are only marginally profitable (around 15% if done correctly) but in bailing Methrage out of bill lock and providing cash to rebuild some infra, the actual benefit to him will be quite large. Methrage, please don't use this money just to attack someone again. You won't get off a fourth time. GOONS are being kind in releasing you back into the respected community after 'going rogue' (the semantics of that are debatable but you launched aggressive wars to be sure) on them twice, please use that gift wisely.

thaone Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 I have to agree with Nippy, doubt Methrage will actually fulfill these terms. When that topic comes I will again be able to post: GOONS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haflinger Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 [quote name='Aurion' timestamp='1288240774' post='2494914'] Do you know how aid slots work? Just wondering. [/quote] Methrage has 6 aid slots, the proposed deals will take between 38 and 40 slots to implement. Assuming 100% efficiency in aid slot usage, which would be unusual for reps but a bit more likely in this case as there is only one paying nation, then the reparations in the OP will take 70 days to pay out. GOONS are showing a good understanding of foreign aid here; they appear to have implemented the deals each on one slot. Methrage is currently showing 19.5M in incoming aid, which should be more than enough to allow him to escape bill-lock and start sending tech on the 5th of November. The terms do of course grant GOONS the right to drag out the payment period if they wish, but I doubt they will repeat the mistake they made with NATO. Is the rest of Kerberos Nexus to be granted peace as well? I see no current wars for the other two nations. [quote name='nippy' timestamp='1288260933' post='2495074'] It'll be back.

CRexx Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 (edited) Methrage won't even make it a third of the way through those reps before his DERP generators make it back to full power and he's launching another "preemptive strike" on the GOONS. We should get a betting pool going on the exact date. Edited October 28, 2010 by CRex of Gulo Gulo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
