Jim Halpert: [after he's been given a demerit] Like, what does a demerit mean? Dwight Schrute: Let's put it this way. You do not want to receive three of those. Jim Halpert: Lay it on me. Dwight Schrute: Three demerits, and you'll receive a citation. Jim Halpert: Now, that sounds serious. Dwight Schrute: Oh, it is serious. Five citations, and you're looking at a violation. Four of those, and you'll receive a verbal warning. Keep it up, and you're looking at a written warning. Two of those, that will land you in a world of hurt, in the form of a disciplinary review, written up by me, and placed on the desk of my immediate superior.

Hmm, I think I'm starting to put all the puzzle pieces together properly... Smith = Hitler Smith is persecuting TGH. Hitler persecuted the Jews. According to some of TGH government, TGH = The Jewish Diaspora TGH is The Golden Horde If you do some slight changes to the spelling and inflectional endings, their name is The Gold Hoarders Hoarding wealth is a common anti-Semitic trope in Christendom, whom TGH happens to be allied to. European anti-Semitism led to the murder of over 6 million Jews, some would claim. There are still a few missing pieces, but there is clearly something bigger going on here. What are the greater powers of Orbis hiding from us? Why aren't more people asking questions? Am I reading this correctly? p.s. @Fraggle

Well, this thread has developed fabulously. I viewed Settra as some rando who wasn't doing TGH any favours until I realized that he's literally head of their FA. It's genuinely difficult to take any possibly valid arguments seriously with this kind of conduct.

Then why do you have a head of FA position? >When Kastor and Rickky don’t say something stupid ”they’re my FA heads, of course they are official and you should take them seriously” >When Kastor and Rickky say something stupid ”they aren’t really FA, I do the real FA” Pick one lol

Hi Thrax, Yeah this thread looks like a train wreck I'd mostly like to avoid. The history was where Thalmor basically had a discussion with Shifty about raiding and he jokingly said Pantheon looked juicy. I believe Shifty then hit them or something. The log was leaked and Pantheon cancelled KT on the intel clause. It caused quite a large amount of fallout including the resignation of Thalmor. Most of that Pantheon gov then managed to get themselves into prominent positions in TCW, which was ironic because within less than 6 months we again had an ODP with people who just cancelled us. So therefore, yeah if they then failed to inform KT over a war being plotted against us imo it looks hypocritical. Even if you take the pretence that the plot wasn't threatening, apparently Shifty rouging a top 10 alliance was enough to warrant an intel clause being activated. I believe I have given them the benefit of the doubt atm, there is no proof out there at the moment to suggest they did know. I don't particularly see the TCW break up as betrayal either, I initiated it partially because we had rapidly grown apart and we wanted to take a new direction. So everything TKR does can be equated to how TKR currently operates? Should I equate all of Kayser's misadventures to your current FA? If you still haven't seen that KT operates differently since a year ago, then really you didn't know us and still don't. And apparently adding accuracy to a post is too much for you to handle?

Change your leader name to Santa, because you just keep giving out gifts.

I love that your ally literally used a pro genocide meme in a recruitment ad (http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/serbia-strong-remove-kebab), but somehow Smith is literally Hitler. This is now my second favourite forum meltdown ever.

Yo, I just heard Story of Adidon after I posted that. What the frick man, Pusha straight up rekt Drake so hard it was actually hard to sit through. fricking rap beef journalism, calling him out for being a deadbeat dad to his bastard son. If Pusha straight up kneecapped him it would have been less damaging. And Drake comes back... with a press release? Bro ? Seriously, you aren't even making sense in single posts anymore, let alone threads. Take a break and collect yourself.

Am i reading this correctly? It seems like your point is that your alliance is being "persecuted" unfairly, but you seem to be making that point by suggesting that Smith's hero is Hitler. So uhm. Okay.....Is this a really clumsy attempt at humour I am just not getting at all? Considering that his original point was that your alliance is unique in the way it antagonizes people and that's why people might be so inclined to criticize it, that is an interesting way to make your point. Or rather, his. Justin, Buor.... seriously. While your alliance contains gov who say stuff like this, just stow the "who, us!?" thing. It's super tedious.

Since when is anyone bad mouthing Felkey? "Well him being a liar and a sneak is well known" - Your head of FA This victim complex you guys have for "getting flak" here is pretty ridiculous. You are an alliance who from the beginning has set out to be as hostile and toxic as possible. Including mass invading/trolling peoples discords. It's up to you if you want to do that but don't act surprised when people stand up to you.

Great work Felkey, I see you're following the procedure very carefully. TCW gets +5 Seeker Points, and you get a gold star! Keep up the good work, membership awaits! ?

This is only a TEst. I repeat. This is only a TEst Normally I wouldn't give an announcement for this, but you all seem to get shook at the slightest militarization these days. TEst is running a military exercise in the deep waters of Politics and War. We've sighted a few whales that have strayed from the herd. We've been away from a bit so are TEsting the waters and seeing if our harpoons are as sharp as they used to be. To all the people who were panicked we might be coming for you. Like I told you. Relax. And we wouldn't be us without a silly little video attached to something like this.

I'd really hoped Rickky would be able to refrain from mentioning me, but hopes don't build castles. Boy's been OBSESSED with the goods since the jump. why. do. you. keep. using. keystrokes. to. mention. me? It's fricking weird. I don't have frickall to do with this and here you go.....using some horseshit photoshop job you took precious time out of your life to make because your thirst is so real. Get over it and get over yourself. More importantly, get over me. Sidebar: what's this thread supposed to be about? who's mad at who and why?

He's doing his job by saying that someone's hero is Hitler. That's the job you gave him. Ok. I imagine this will the last time I bother responding to anything your alliance says. I'm done with you guys, because that's something else entirely: there's literally no point indulging you. Best of luck.

"...of course." Her grip on the rifle was loose. Nervous? Agitated? Her eyes out of focus, darting across the room. And she wouldn't stop grinning at me. "Usually waveless meat doesn't get to hear. You must be so excited!" "Right. Yes. Of course." Her companion was more matter of fact. He barked a simple order: "Strip." "...excuse me...?" "Space Powder. Detoxifying. Mandatory. Strip down." "Erm, toxins...?" She looked at me, and took on an apologetic tone. "It's not so bad. We've really had to tighten things up since the Fraggle Incident. Fluff everywhere..." she bit her lower lip. "May Uncle see them to their deserved fate. Don't worry. I'm sure writing your story will be worth it!" What could I do? It took me ten minutes of arguing to get my clothes back. With it they handed me half of a bagel, and a plastic cup of purple liquid. It felt like I'd just given blood. Welcome to the Church of Spaceology, she said. He made the entire speech from his pool. The mic was wired, so whenever he moved or gestured, five followers would hold the cable over their heads for him, out of the purple water. He looked haggard, and only one of his hands was on the mic. I was glad I hadn't drunk my cup yet. "Yesterday, you were told. Tomorrow, you were told. Today, there is little to say. The loop draws closed. The bagel reaches its end. I reach my end. Ends reach their end. We begin." The followers, there must have been hundreds of them, were looking in every random direction. Were they even listening? The room was packed thick. The air hung, and any time you brushed up against someone, you would stick. They all had the powder on them. "Look upon the beginning. The bagel you were given. The bagel you were told. Similar, but different. What changed?" They all spoke. It was like a communal groan. "Poppies." I guess they were listening. "Poppies. Seeds. What is a Seed? Potential. A capsule of Time and Space. Who is a Seed?" My head was swimming. Was it just the heat? How did I not notice the guy in the tiny pirate ship rowing across the pool? "You. No longer me. I have come to the beginning. Let the seeds show the way. For in that Time, the poppy can become something more... lend itself to vision. Opiates are one way to bridge the gaps between the synapses. To make connections across Space." Opiates...? I poured the cup into the pool. No one seemed to notice. My head didn't feel any better. "The Space between my words has become infinite, as it was always meant to, and always was. Before I ascend, a map for your own journey: Rub the powder on your lips, and feel a momentary respite from prison. Kiss Space, you orange flavoured ^*$(%^*%*^*^." His final words before returning to his "ship." The mic dropped by the side of the pool, and many sets of eyes greedily fixed upon it. Excited, the nearest follower leaned close to me. "It's our time, now." TL:DR: Please join me in welcoming Ripper, who will be handling CoS's FA, and is presumably only slightly evil. I'll still be around, don't hesitate to contact me if we already get along. : )

Not a fan, but he's actually been on fire since Passionfruit.

So she's not allowed to ironically embrace the nonsense coming her way on the forum? My lengthy explanation and repudiation of Stalin when asked for means nothing? Everything must be literal from now on until whenever? Cute. If you knew literally anything about her you would know your accusation was ridiculous, but you only know the totem you and some of your colleagues have build in her stead. Also, as pointed out several times over the past few months, whattaboutism is not an argument. My advice? Take a break and breathe deeply before you come back to this.

Ehm. I don't really have too much of a stake in the whole KT vs Felkey convo, but this bit is interesting! Justiiiin. Justiiiiiin. While I understand your need to defend your alliance's honor etc. etc..... I think it's a bit disingenious to draw a paralel with Thrax' criticism of you in order to support your case that it is more than fine to be critical of third parties and call out when you believe you see bs. In principle I 100% agree with your point that it is totally fine to do so, but you need to be able and willing to take it on the chin yourself as well. In Thrax' particular case (and mine), you and yours showed extremely thin skin and apparently took the matter rather personal. While that too is perfectly fine, and your prerogative, it's contradictory to the point you are trying to convey here. In other words: Either bullshit around and be cool with it when others call your crap out too. *Or* tone it down. Right now it comes across as rather hypocritical.

So I guess you guys are trying to do a hatchet job on Felkey now, because you're upset about his treaty? I think you'll need to step your game up from "here's some several-months old logs of someone else saying he might have known about a thing that arguably fit within an intel clause he had, though really the plot wasn't terribly plausible in the first place." The fact that that's the best you seem to have, and bearing in mind you might have been able to mine the Pantheon breakup for better instances of him being a liar/sneak if he was indeed one, kinda makes him look better to me for your efforts, not worse.

Kastor dislike = we must be doing something right

I'm only decoming if I get a 6 month NAP and thus ruffle Partisa-- Our feathers.

"This is our time. Look upon the great wound in the sky if you disbelieve it. Fight us by all means, for we relish every stinging bullet, every slash of the blade, just as you might relish a delicious feast. But know this truth, and remember it as the night skies curdle above you --- we have already won." - Hyperlogus Phaevra, Lord Sensorium of the Silken Death

Don't worry Pusha T has that covered.

Don't diss Drake....

From The Desk of Uncle Traveling Matt Explorer of Space The Nation of Fraggle Rock Greetings to all the best nations of Orbis. And a hearty hat tip to the others. It is my pleasure to invite you all to our nation, Fraggle Rock, in 212 minutes. We are putting the finishing touches on our 400th nuclear weapon. Let's thank Mr. Monkey D Luffy for sponsoring this one. Let's also remember that you, yes you, can also sponsor any nuclear weapon in the future. Number 420 has been mentioned as special between all the druggos.....I'm sure that we will either get a lot, or they will take a few bong rips and forget. Thanks to all who made this possible. We look forward to number 500 by the end of the summer. Join us here: https://discord.gg/3QAGE7 Best Wishes, Uncle Traveling Matt

How much to sponsor 420? Asking for a friend....

I know, right? Micros are like 1,000 times better than nanos!

I would but I have to mindlessly grind up to 1000 score first. There are a few cool systems I've wanted to try and see how they go. I personally think more democracy = more involvement = more activity = more competency ad infinitum in that cycle. It actually doesn't make sense when you really think about how the overwhelming majority of this game has willingly surrendered nearly all ratified "say" in their own fate in order to secure themselves from a fight. This is a *nation* sim but the idea of sovereignty of the individual is essentially non-existent and that strikes me as odd.

Hi dad, Honestly, I’m not here trying to be critical of those who are critical of us. I and we expect it with the way we put ourselves out there. The point I’m trying to make is that you can’t complain about our complaining and criticisms when everyone else does the same thing to us. No one has really offered any defence for Felkey other than that we’re essentially being mean to him “hatchet job”, “bad mouthing” and that it’s terrible that we’re doing it. Instead of disagreeing with our core opinions and posts they’re disagreeing with how we operate and how opinionated and publicly critical we are. It’s not just in this thread, it’s in private and it’s on discord. They don’t think we should be this way, when in fact they are all the very same way. With love, Justin ❤️ PS: Is that a threat? Youre either mistakenly or intentially misinterpreting what I’m saying. I wasn’t referring to our war time trolling, I was referring to how opinionated we are and how we privately and publicly critique people. People keep complaining about us going after people like TRF, Pantheon or whomever else aligns themselves against us when we’re simply calling them out for shit we disagree with. People never really come and try to rebut our core arguments but rather come out with a victim complex and act like it’s terrivle how we are calling all these people out. We all do the same thing in that regard and it’s funny to see people complain about it when we all do it, why act so innocent?

Oh dear that’s my name...

I think it says something that after 2 gov changes and completely new culture, with a lot of the people who were leading BK at the time of their “betrayal “ that you, and presumably others in TKR, still “dislikes BK”.

Meh, I'm too lazy to go back and get my logs with Abbas, but doesn't matter anways, fam. I can understand it gets boring fighting the same alliances time and time again, so as far as fun is concerned, I think y'all did the right thing fighting nuke bloc instead.

Damn, I lost the timing... At least we were faster than Shifty news... I cannot promise comics during peace-time, but they can certainly be used during war negotiations. Congrats to Manthrax for what he has built and the way he runs things.

Boi, I have been sitting down and watching to get these dubs for the last 5 fricking years. My song has lyrics composed by your superiors Mr. Deputy whatever the frick position they gave your ass. Your ideas are shit and forced your ass to change names because of how shameful they were. The only line that you have successfully composed are the diplomat applications on shit tier alliances.

lets add a little fun into the mix its not the best i did the best i could with this so yea lol

People cannot be punished for mistakes, so there's no incentive to war anyways. What exactly is "winning" a war nowadays? You can't crush your opponent. He will get out of your range and then proceed to shit on lower tier nations, and war devolves into "Top tier winning on side A and bottom tier winning on side B". Even if side A does more damage, within 3-4 weeks everyone is rebuilt to the exact same thing. There's no strategy or skill required. I say remove all caps from all tiers so we can finally have a real alliance war between all members, not handicapped by players who are "too large". If your alliance get pummeled by one top-tier player then maybe it shouldn't exist.

"Sparkplug" See? You couldn't even get that post out without an immature name call. Too be frank, I wasn't really trying to debunk your point that a few of your posts aren't completely immature name-calling and ad homs. I was pointing out the fact that you're an incredibly toxic poster who shouldn't have forum access as all you do is ooc name call and use words such as "retarded" and "eat a bag of dicks" instead of offering any bit of insight into any conversation or discussion. You should really grow up and stop with the middle school bullshit.

I think your mom needs to wash your mouth out with some soap.

Follow The Great Hippo Khan and I’ll make your decisions for you. No need for this wasted time of “voting”. Such inefficiency transfers of power get in the way of more important things.

Rose is best democracy because every term, a new Abbas gets elected.

Problem: How to fix approval ratings? Solution: Remove approval ratings

>KillzBob joins Fark >Fark later removes KillzBob and hits him >KillzBob later rejoins Fark >Fark then blames KillzBob for disband info Shifty, what’s next in this romance comedy of PnW?

He wasn't confirming so much as he was responding to you. They gave you constructive criticism, but all you did was brush it off as 'negativity and 'trolling.' I like your idea, but it wasn't thought out well.

#fakenews

Shifty says fark 'gon disband - fark calls him a piece of shit. #imwithshifty

Oh, TKR can't declare on IQ themselves? TGH has to do the dirty work again? Our services aren't free now.

Two weeks Enough time for Golden Horde players to move to TEst, declare war to avoid the NAP, hit IQ upper tier just rebuilt for one round and then go back to Golden Horde At that point IQ will declare war to Golden Horde and half of the world will use that as excuse to jump on IQ because they "broke the NAP" Mark my words
