Let us completely disregard that AcTi made threats towards TKTB. Let's completely disregard that AcTi made the first move. [/quote] I was not aware that AcTi interfered in the prosecution of a rogue on AcTi, I withdraw my statements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevanovia Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 [quote name='Arrnea' timestamp='1289125659' post='2504908'] Just the fact that I find it ironic that YOU of all people should attempt to call someone out on being a self-important micro. [/quote] Glad you were able to address my whole post. /sarcasm I also find it hilarious due to the lack of me mentioning the importance of The University on Bob's politics...ever.

Merrie Melodies Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 [quote name='Sentinal' timestamp='1289123840' post='2504883'] AcTi members are free to peace out if they follow the surrender terms. It's decision whether or not they want their decision destroyed. Really, I see this war over all except in name by the end of the week, provided AcTi's members are smart enough to realize this. I don't know when we ever claimed we were teaching anyone a lesson in diplomacy. [i]You're[/i] pushing that one onto us. [/quote] Here is the issue as I see it, you have said AcTi members are free to peace out if they follow terms ( you mean quit their alliance and join a POW AA ) their other choice is to stay in war until you ZI batallion (which you won't be able to do unless he lets you. So in effect you are saying war until Batallion is ZI'd or disband, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] They can still be a part of their alliance, we just require them to be on our POW AA so we can monitor those who have complied with terms so we can come to a quick decisive end.

May I ask how you plan to nuke a nation under 5K NS and a few hundred infra, I would love to know this strategy, do you plan on having MP enabled nations sell off infra and tech to get down there? How long have you lived under order of being ZI'd? Knock the hell out of them all you want, but when you start babbling about "teaching lessons" "teaching diplomacy" and we'll ZI who we want, the world at large will begin to judge you, and right now, your diplomacy is looking ugly.
