HeroofTime55 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I think I speak for all of us when I thank GOONS for helping to weed out the spineless cowards from our collective coalition. With 1500+ nations on this front, there were bound to be a handful, it was unavoidable. The weeding out of those 14 brings us that much closer to perfection. You have my thanks.

Dr Beefstupid Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 My criticism: I think the fact that my little comic about "GOONs" was put next to another joke about our witless opponents using "GOONs" is a bit much. If anything, it's probably going to fuel about a hundred more usages of "GOONs", since everyone is convinced this is the ultimate way to bother us.

ktarthan Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 [quote name='Haflinger' timestamp='1298150079' post='2638604'] 22 nations is roughly 16 and a half days' worth of recruiting for you guys. If you lose two weeks' worth of recruits each week, well, math is obvious. [/quote] Correct. GOONS tends to lose nations faster than it gains them when we aren't doing active recruitment. I still don't understand why this is noteworthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denkimon Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 [quote name='Haflinger' timestamp='1298134513' post='2638450'] With 22 more currently over 20 days inactive. Yeahhhh. [/quote] Representing about 2.5% of our NS. Yeahhhh. [quote name='Haflinger' timestamp='1298150079' post='2638604'] 22 nations is roughly 16 and a half days' worth of recruiting for you guys. If you lose two weeks' worth of recruits each week, well, math is obvious. [/quote] Which obviously means GOONS will simply vanish without a trace in about six months. But seriously, you all go ahead and keep cherry-picking whatever stats you can fit into your cognitive dissonance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margrave Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 It would be swell if people stopped using "u r irelevint" as a debate tactic. The greatest insult, after all, is not in rigorous screaming matches with your hated foe, but simply disregarding anything that they say; and if you're the type of person who enjoys getting a rise out of someone, it's the best way to send them into fits. On topic: I approve, however, I would hope GOONS continues this paper. I may not agree with everything you say; but state it well and it enhances your position. Also, bravo on the "Not A Crying Pubbie" award; those should be handed out more often as you find folks who merit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] It's noteworthy because you've apparently decided not to do active recruitment for the course of the war. I don't think you should expect that policy to serve your needs.

(Yes I do see the "apparently" in your statement but aren't appearances everything around here?) As for the publication. I enjoyed it thoroughly and if another edition is produced the propaganda machine of Oregonia is full ready to contribute to the cause.
