Ashoka the Great Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 [quote name='Joe Izuzu' timestamp='1292966297' post='2548679'] Well, with us it was because NSO emphatically told us not to enter. With you guys it is because you told NEW that you wouldn't enter. Kind of a large difference there, don't you think? [/quote] It pains me to say that I largely agree with you on this.

Dochartaigh Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 [quote name='SonOfHoward' timestamp='1292966627' post='2548686'] I've said it before; iFOK has treaty conflicts with Fark directly, and INT through LEO. If anything we could have attacked TPE but seeing as FARK/INT/TPE are a united front it probably wouldn't be such a good idea. [/quote] wait- i thought that ODPs did not matter? cuz according to PC and iFOK, any other alliance who defended DF would be considered bandwagoners, including those who were in NOIR with DF. so the official position of iFOK is that NOIR does not matter at all but somehow LEO does... as for attacking TPE- yep you should have. PC could have hit INT as i don't think there are any ties there. now lookie there, PC and iFOK could have entered this war with ease. this whole "united front" is a cop out pure and simple.

[/quote] well accept in the OP where they stated that those alliances who wanted to defend DF through NOIR would be considered bandwagoners. honestly, if an alliance hits an ally of mine, then i would hope to god my alliance would defend our ally. if it happens to be an ally of an ally, guess what- tis not my fault for defending a friend and ally. not every war is going to be clear cut with the sides nicely lined up and all your ducks in a row. if you are waiting for that, then stop having your alliance and your allies continue to sign treaties. otherwise, it will never be clear cut and you will most likely end up having to hit an ally of an ally or go neutral.

[/quote] Heh, I knew this one was coming. Grub's peace offer was basically for PC and \m/ to acknowledge that Polar had a right to dictate to us what we were and weren't allowed to do regarding an unprotected AA. I've never regretted refusing that offer. NEW was very clearly attacking a protected AA and PC and iFOK shouldn't be expected to cause massive problems for every other one of their allies by jumping onto the fire that NEW set for itself.
