Decided to make my appearance on the forums. I am going to regret this.

After the way the last GW ended it doesnt surprise me that peace is lasting as long as it is. I'd say the war is unlikely to start until the global NAP expires.

I don't think this has really been stated publicly yet, but we feel that as an alliance, it’s about time we came forward with this. This is going to be a rather long post, apologies ahead of time. Camelot has never held a reputation to be “jealous” of; we’ve been known to be one of the more “immature” alliances. Camelot was started from the ground up, by members that much of the game already disliked or shunned. Over time, we grew a niche under BK/IQ where we would essentially attack who they asked, but we also attacked on our own whims. BK protected us and as long as we did what they asked we had significant free reign, with negligible consequences. In GW14 we helped IQ initially, backed their storyline and defended them. They were our allies, and quite frankly, our only means of survival at that point in time. As the leader of Camelot, I feel it is time to apologize sincerely for the actions that I, my government, and any of my members took. Looking back, we should have recognized the red flags and taken a more stoic stance on ending the war earlier. For not doing that, and contributing to the irreparable harm that carrying on has caused many alliances and the community, I am truly sorry. PnW lost a lot of amazing people. The game lost a significant amount of players, but most importantly, community members. To those who have turned away from the game with no chance of return due to our actions, I apologize deeply. To the alliances that we had forced to fight for almost a year straight, I truly wish we could have ended that war earlier. However, I have the utmost respect for those who were able to keep their communities strong and stable throughout that. We owe the survival of this game and community to people like you and your members. To the alliances like North Point, who we screwed over and plotted against, I hope we can make it up to you and move forward. To those we are working with and have given us a second chance, I can’t find a way to put how grateful I am into words. When IQ left, they asked us to leave the game with them, but we refused. We did not expect at any point that our actions would ever be forgotten. Or that they would be forgiven overnight, instead we began changing our focus internally. We hope that if we can change ourselves for the better, everyone would recognize our effort and over time, we could heal the wounds created by our actions and forge a brighter path in the future. So once again I, and the entirety of Camelot, am truly sorry for those our actions have affected.

Okay pixel hugger.

This isn't really a farewell or goodbye but I'm gonna be taking a break from p and w. Recently my mental health has deteriorated because of a lot of factors. My life has become so monotonous over the last couple of months, logging in every day to a game that I don't really care about anymore hasn't been helping. I've tried various things to help make me feel better including "self medicating" but nothing has helped. I'm taking a break from life, I'm gonna try new things and in about a week I'm gonna decide on if I'm gonna keep playing or not. I'm gonna stop chatting in p and w servers for a while as well. I'm sorry to the people in my alliance and some of my friends for acting weirdly over the past while. I just didn't want to admit there was something wrong with me but that just made things even worse. I'm sorry guys I really was acting strange and negative. I'll hopefully be back soon and you guys will have the old Jamie/Alexsa back. Goodbye for now.

If you don't mean it, just don't say it in the first place. If you were just joking, it was just a joke, so no apology needed. If you apologized, it was either not a joke, or you literally lost control of your mouth. The fact that you apologize makes me never want to deal with you again.

such a wordy apology for messages on a forum thread and posting said apology in alliance affairs?

Following a recent discussion regarding polls, I have decided to set up a poll to decide where Alex should post polls. I hope that the results of this poll, whatever they are, will inform actions going forward.

Last night, I did something unjustifiable. In response to a forum post made by the leaders of GATO about a treaty they made with VT, I said many things that I shouldn't have. Jokes are jokes, but I crossed the line and then kept going for another mile. The things that I said were offensive, disrespectful and rude. In this letter, I wish only to apologize. I’m not going to sit here and try to sell you all some tale about how I wasn’t thinking or about how I meant something different when I made my comment. I’m not going to try and tell you all why you shouldn’t be angry at me for what I said because that anger is very much deserved. All I want to do is to try to right my wrongs. Firstly, I want to apologize to GATO and VT. Neither of you did anything to deserve the things that I chose to say to you. I should have been much nicer to you and encouraged you, instead of trying to ruin your experience for my amusement. I should’ve thought about your feelings before I started typing out my message. I was inconsiderate and disdainful. By choosing to say what I did, I stole the attention away from you and put it all on myself. For all of those things, I am very sorry. Secondly, I want to apologize to the other members of my alliance, Ignis Aternum. My actions have tarnished our alliance’s name for many months to come. You deserve to have a second-in-command who tries to help those around us, rather than one who makes selfish attempts to strike them down. The things that I chose to say and do last night are a perfect example of how you should not behave. I hope to be a better friend, leader and representative of our ideals in the future. Thirdly, I would like to apologize to our protectorate, Error 404. Through your association with Ignis Aternum, I have tarnished your name as well. You deserve to have allies who try to help you advance your goals, rather than who harm your ability to achieve those goals due to their selfishness. I hope that I can be a much better ally in the future. Finally, I want to apologize to the PnW community. I offended many of you by choosing to say the things that I did and for that, I am truly sorry. Many of you immediately stood up to me to make sure I knew that what I did was wrong. For that, I thank you. I was a bully and I deserved to be told off. In the future, I hope to be much nicer and more considerate of others, no matter the ranking of their nation or their alliance. Ultimately, it is just a game and those things don’t matter. We are all humans and we all deserve to be treated as such. The fact that we’re behind usernames and screens does not give anyone the right to spew vulgarities and rudeness. An apology is the first part of righting my wrongs, but taking action is the second. Upon posting this letter, I will be entering vacation mode for the next two weeks to give myself time to reflect upon my choices. I hope to determine if there was a deeper reason for why I chose to do and say the things that I did so that I correct it and avoid hurting more people in the future. When I return, I hope to be a much better friend and community member to all of you.

There has been peace for far too long we need another dial up war, if you were a semi new or long term player and all you could do is snoop around a discord server for 1,000 days like a basement dweller would you get bored? Yes. It’s been politics & politics for forever for Christ sakes it’s like literally everyone is connected to another somehow... Why bother looking at treaties of alliances if you know they are balls deep in NaPs and Protectorates! It’s like an enormous ego stroking pixel hugging competition at this point... Anyways this was just a little rant I usually troll in the forums once every hundred days or so but I just felt it had to be said... For legal reasons I do not speak for the Terminus Est. alliance in any way with my statements this is simply just my thoughts. Thank you and good day From the Self proclaimed most aesthetically pleasing nation in politics and war! - BlackWaterCorporation

W-what do you mean how long will it last??? It explicity says the NAP would be 6 months long?? Have you not read the wiki?? Have you not asked around?? Edit: typo Edit 2: I do enjoy war though as much as the next person, both of us being ex-TGH will lead to some trigger fingers but the game has to stabalize before any enjoyable war can be achieved

I usually take a long break from the game every few months. You're right, it gets monotonous, and the quarantine isn't helping. We'll still be here whenever you get back. Take care 💛

edited that. I guess you could call me a new nation. I'm 35 days old. But pixel hugging is indefinitely fun. The sheer thrill of building up your nation, and making them thick stacks for as long as you can is just intoxicating. besides, think about it. War eventually just ends up costing resources. If we look at Orbis as a whole, wars do not make more money. They simply transfer what money already exists, and destroy valuable infrastructure, and consume munitions, gasoline and food. Overall, war is one of the least profitable things for the Orbis economy.

For how long?

Yep, they resemble the cat heads in Neko Atsume

( ❤️ )

Thanks for the welcome! And... max it is a big job I basically sit around and teach people. It’s great!

Oh, I thought it was a bug showing the peace text on every war. Thanks!

Mt. Fuji District Sirens blared loudly around the docks. This was the most intense moments so far in the battle for Mt. Fuji District. With shots coming ever so close to civilian ships, Britannian ships were taking the risk of not firing back to not make themselves legitimate targets. However, the Britannian military ships were more than glad to fire their much more powerful cannons at Rokkenjima artillery and other shots into the city. These shells sent shock-waves through the city, it was a brutal fight. Britannian soldiers were holding off vampires and withes, while they also fought against one another. The city wasn't dark at all, it was on fire. (City of Fuji burning) The governor grabbed Will's arm as he grabbed his pulling the governor to safety. "The call has already gone out, if we don't hurry up we'll be the ones left behind!" he exclaimed as attempted to make his way to board the final ship. Nearly every soldier except for a handful had boarded. The final few were waiting for the governor and will fighting to ensure they would be able to escape. As soon as they would board, the fleet would leave, but time was ticking. (Britannian military ships fires on Rokkenjima targets in Fuji)

this is a new one

With the existing ability to add a Declare War Message (warning) to AA member war declaration pages, it would be helpful to be able to add the same or a different message on the war declaration page for AA applicants. We only recently realized that this does not appear for nations currently on applicant status. Thanks!

According to the PnW discord admin, multis on the test server are no longer allowed...

Mt Fuji District The governor sat at the window almost casually smoking as he watched from the City Hall windows at the fires that could be seen in the far distance. "Seems like we're out of time then, let's not waste any more time and get moving to the ships before they leave us." The governor had finished destroying sensitive Britannian documents that were placed in the capital of Fuji. In addition, he had prepared a "farewell" gift to whichever forces would take the city. In the meantime, all active forces had finally set up a line around the docks before they to would begin their escape. (Black Lines main defence line around the docs) (Red Gears illustrate artillery points that are rigged to blow) While some artillery points aren't firing (The father away ones) The ones in a U shape near the docks are, and are concentrated near the Britannian HQ. The howitzers continued to fire in all directions, at bridges, roads, and anywhere large amounts of hostiles were reported. They were protected by troops close to the docks to insure they wouldn't lose their artillery until they left. Even now, knowing that the artillery wouldn't be able to be saved, they planned to blow up as much of their munitions and howitzers as possible before making a final dash to the docks. Even with the final city about to fall, Britannian ships didn't fire in order to hold up their neutral alignment in carrying civilians and refugees. In total 3 transport ships and 3 cruisers were aiding in the extraction. However, it was the cruiser meant for military personal and it's respected ships that flew the Britannian Battle Flag, and not a white flag like the others did. This cruiser, as it made it's rounds following the fighting, unleashed a volley of shells at Numazu/Mishima in an attempt to wipe out a large contingent of enemy forces, bridges, and any armour hey might have to slow their advance.

I agree - should of been done in a rather private setting but its good to see someone taking ownership of their mistakes and plans to do better in the future

My jimmies are unrustled. Props for appologising. But ye this should probably go in Orbis Central or be a DM, idk

isn't this just a apology. one party. wait im dumb

Looks good guys. Good luck to both parties. o/

I don't know what you did, but this was a thorough and from what I could glean, very earnest apology. this is a reminder that at times our greatest enemy can be ourselves. I hope you move past your mistakes and let them build you into a better version of yourself.

Its still not as bad as rebekah.

How many Ignis sternum posts in alliance affairs does it take to create a valid cb? Because this is the third time you've baited me in with something that literally concerns nobody outside of your alliance.

They also don't need to assume my reasoning for leaving Ignis. I didn't leave because of what yall said. I left to learn

yeah. the guy who went vm isn't fireborn.

An apology is the first step forwards, congrats ....but you should apologize to them in person and not make a new alliance affairs post.

You know, when I heard people were shitting on a micro, I figured they were doing something dumb like "publicly announcing we're open to sign treaties" or "spamming Alliance Affairs with a million useless posts" or some shit like that. But, shitting on an O-level? Really? I mean yeah, I think they're useless too (because every alliance has the *option* to do whatever the frick they want) but really guys? This is just fricking stupid. Best of luck GATO. Judging by these people, you aren't the ones that need it.

Congrats on the treaty guys. Ignore all the toxic negativity. Half of them couldn't tell their arse from their elbow.

Pretty much expected this much toxicity, it wouldn’t be PnW otherwise

Wow. Gotta love the standard P&W toxicity on display here. Smh 🤦🏻‍♂️

WHO ASKED (btw disband and join Error 404)

Congratulations to GATO and VT good to see my kids working together. As for the rest of the toxic Brady bunch need I remind you this forum is called Alliance Affairs. It is not called Top 50 Alliance Affairs nor is it called micro affairs, you do not get to dictate which Alliances posts here. If you feel so strongly about it you can file it in the idgas inbox.

Nobody actually competes for those. Nobody actually cares and almost nobody even knows who has the most kills of X at any given time, kr has eaten the most nukes, or anything but who has the most cities. Get in touch with reality for a change.

Except it's still pointless and not really useful for anything. Anyone so severely invested in the very nice one trick pony use of this can easily make a sheet to do the same thing, and just plug in an alliance ID to see. Or if ya make it real fancy it could even pull for several at once to compare. This straight up is not necessary and doesn't contribute anything of actual value.

It's computationally expensive for something with no real benefit. The goal is to make turn changes shorter not longer.

Wholesome. I love it.
