blazerboy525 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Darn, we have to peace? and just when I had found enemies with actual warchests to rob! In all seriousness, I'd like to thank all my opponents for being gracious and well mannered, especially Xaranthius. I hope to spy fight you again some time, its an incredibly amusing waste of money. Still disappointed you didn't take my surrender terms though, I was really hoping to see that youtube vid. While not every member of doomhouse showed this level of class, the majority of what I saw was good-natured warring and I'm glad for it. Here's looking forward to next time. OH almost forgot my shoutout to Johnny Apocalypse, Palace, and the other doomhousers that showed up in Olympus' IRC channel to talk and make it fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebel Virginia Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 [quote name='wickedj' timestamp='1299116279' post='2650269'] so cute... Congrats on peace, Olympus. I know why you did this and i know it wasnt an easy thing to do EDIT: RV before you start bashing lets look at something. Youve now been at war for something like 2 or so weeks. Legion STILL has 201 nations in PM 2/3rds of their alliance still not willing to come out and fight and all big nations. All of NSO's big nations are in peace mode. Meanwhile Olympus has about half their big nations out of peace mode. See the issue here? one party is willing to fight while other parties arent [/quote] [color="#0000FF"]I like Olympus actually. NAC I have no strong opinions on other than their mini-Haflinger. Whatever bashing you perceived was not directed at either of those alliances.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memoryproblems Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) [quote name='Sardonic' timestamp='1299116048' post='2650261'] Congrats on peace. Before any of the other parties we're at war with get any ideas, their rep amount is severely discounted because of them leaving early, and not indicative of how much I intend to charge the majority of you (unless you choose to surrender soon as well). [/quote] I've been thinking about reps the past few days, and I'm prepared to make an offer of what Sanitarium [i]might[/i] be prepared to pay at the conclusion of this war, whenever we feel it prudent to conclude our involvement in the war. (Which is not right now, nor do I expect it to be soon.) But anyway, my offer is... not a damn cent. I'd rather disband then pay GOONS anything. There will be your chance to prove that Doom House is a benevolent coalition and that they don't "force alliances to disband". I'm counting on you guys to live up to your rhetoric, because you can rest assured that I will live up to mine.

If a reasonable path to peace is available, it can't be called forced disbandment. Your attempt to attack us with your pathetic lawyering is just that, pathetic. I suppose I should not be surprised that you have a fundamental misunderstanding of the term "forced disbandment". Hint: "Forced" implies there were no options.

Which is probably why people aren't begrudging Legacy their half of the DT loot. If I remember SN attacked DT. Not often you hear of the attacking alliance ask for reps unless they got whipped and needed it to patch their wounded pride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

President S O Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) Thanks to Roquentin, you have been very classy. I expected terms to be a lot worse than they are. Best of luck to NAC rebuilding, you know you still have our support. To the coalition alliances remaining, best of luck. Olympus, let's do our thing.

As Pansy said, any of our allies are also allowed to pay it, yet they weren't even in the conflict. Its not their reps. We've had discussions with NAC and we're paying them, 'why' doesn't really matter. EDIT: Sentences. Edited March 3, 2011 by President S O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Thats pretty accurate, and that is similar to what I've said for some time, but yet certain individuals in doom house consider to demonize NPO and others for "forced disbandment" when, as you noted, those who disbanded could have always chose other options such as warring indefinitely or paying unreasonable reparations. So perhaps Doom House should take that off its talking points and list of things to insult Pacifica over? Just a thought.

The same could be true of DT's reparations (half of them), if one of their allies steps forward. [OOC]A lot of the early reparations for the Treaty of Versailles were paid for by the United States as a loan to Germany, but you certainly wouldn't say that it was the U.S. who had to pay reparations[/OOC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
