this term of this alliances : counter or help other nation only for war and trade attack other nation in this a organization will b kick out and be attack

TL;DR After continuous unprovoked wars from Sanctuary, not to mention sending counters to our counters, Arrgh formally recognizes the hostilities and prepares to deal with them accordingly.

Disband

lol, a Camelot member

As a new AA leader and someone who has merged a couple of times, I will stand up for Waffle House here lol... Not that they seem to need it. An alliance is responsible for the actions of its members. If some of your members hit Waffle House, Waffle House is in the right to retaliate against your alliance. Alliances have no obligations to their enemies. If you gave them your bank, that's on you. Waffle House has no imperative to fund your... war effort against them? Am I misunderstanding that you're attacking WH and expecting them to return your deposits... but shocked they want reps from the money they already have? An alliance's bank doesn't belong to you just because you merged. That tax money didn't come from your nations. If your bank couldn't cover the rebuild then that should've been addressed before merging, and if that was a deal-breaker then say so.

Someone with no nation comes in here to make fun of a decent flag that someone clearly put a good amount of thought into? Wow.

Shall keep this short, I had fun playing with all of you, and I wish all of you all the best both in PW and irl moving forward. Apologies in case I have ever pissed you off. Isjaki out.

It takes 25 days to nuke 25 cities. And I'm going to do it bcuz you stole my line

I unfortunately will be rejecting your declaration, and will be pretending you do not exist

TEst(icles hehe) would like a word with you. But seriously gl hf.

No.

Love the theme you guys! I wish you the best of luck. ❤️

All I have to say is I will bring back Hilmes if any single fricking one of you ever dares to insult our FA and compare us to NPO again.

You're the guy who scammed all your members, yes? Seems apt to name your alliance after a parasitic creature then.

There has been a coup. For over 2,574 days, the people of Hodor have known peace and stability. No more. The first signs of trouble were subtle. Hodor, cherished Monarch, began to appear less and less in public. A mysterious, but noble figure began to attend state functions in his stead. The smell of rawhide and the muffled squeaks began to emanate from the presidential palace. Tennis balls were made a necessary part of the military's ceremonial garb. All of this was accepted as signs that perhaps our leader, the great Hodor, had finally succumbed to his old ways and the eloquence and charm that had mysteriously been bestowed upon him years ago as a simple minded stable boy had run their course. Life went on as usual in Hodor, until last night. Light sleeping citizens awoke in the night to strange sounds and even stranger sights. Canine companions everywhere were absent from their beds and cages and, through the dark, if one squinted, four legged shapes could be seen raising black and white flags and urinating on fire hydrants. When the rest of the country awoke, postings on the street announced that Hodor had decided to take a back seat to politics and all state affairs would now be handled by his trusted hound - OttoVonBisbark, the newly named Duke of Hauendburg. Otto's role as Hodor's most beloved boy was one that all were too familiar with. A large, looming mastiff, quick to anger, but equally able to enamor. While Hodor was disinclined towards war, OttoVonBisbark's Dukedom was composed of innumerable dog parks and backyards seized through ruthless diplomacy and, when necessary, even more ruthless war. Otto is not cruel, but nor is he timid. His focus is singular and he will achieve his goals through any means necessary. Too long have the dogs of the world been sundered. Through his leadership, a new empire will rise, an Empire of Dog. Unleash yourselves, my friends and retrieve what is yours! AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! tl;dr Hodor is no more. All hail OttoVonBisbark. Any and all promises made and/or relationships built by Hodor will be honored on a case by case basis.

Another example of how politics is being taken away from this game.

Oh boy, the replies are gonna be fun

Yes i am pleased. Can confirm.

This one is a first, and hopefully a last, for me. I've never written a political wall of text, and don't intend to ever do it again after this. In fact, I usually try to avoid political flamewars altogether, even in the more extreme cases of scummy behaviour that need to be addressed for the health of the game. But I do care about this game. And this situation right now, I cannot in good conscience ignore. Anyway, here goes the first ever Horsecock political wall of text. This is an open letter to the Syndicate. First of all, the simple fact that I never did this kind of post probably means that many people (barring Alliance leaders I've worked with in the past) might not know my mentality and moral stances. So let me start this by giving you some more context. For the first time in the history of this game, we actually have a political landscape comprised of a set of (5 before Oasis disbanded, now 4) roughly equally-sized minispheres. That's obviously a good thing for healthy political dynamics. In this climate, I actually don't want Clock (or any sphere, for that matter) to ever team up with a second sphere against a single one (take notes, Tyrion), as that would be a despicable dogpile. These spheres are very much able to pick fair 1-on-1 fights, wars that are certainly more even than ever before. And yes, I did oppose the Clock+BW vs MysOasis war, that was very much not a war I consider fun. The war we had planned was Cata+HoF vs Mystery, a bloc far larger than our 2 alliances. As far as I can tell, there also aren't any "secret treaties" between any spheres at this moment. Sure, Steve (rest in piss) pretended Clockwater was one sphere, but we both know there was no love lost there. I also hope no one takes this post as evidence of any Clock-EMC cooperation. Until the extremely recent Oasis break-up, our 2 spheres actually considered each other obvious rivals. And at the risk of painting a target on my back for revealing this, I personally suggested that EMC should be the target of Clock's first global (instead of Rose). Why? Because at the time, they were the largest (certainly in the mid and upper tiers) and considered the most competent sphere. I place the utmost priority in striving for unconditional competence and in pursuing war as a means of testing and proving my group's skill at the actual game. Proving something to myself, most of all. I am a proud man with a straight shaft back, and taking on EMC would've been a challenge worthy of the Horsecock. That's why I play this game. I do not ever pursue war for political motivations, and I believe my track record very much shows that. And it's quite possible that I have personally started more wars than any other alliance leader in the history of this game. I know that many people don't share this mentality, and that some major alliances enjoy a playstyle more focussed on public grandstanding, finger-pointing and moralising, especially in times of war. I respect that, and I don't want to discourage it in general. In fact, these things do add spice to the political landscape and can make the game more interesting. A good number of alliances do also try to take political advantage in order to dogpile, instead of relying on ingame skill. But you, t$, take it way too far these days. The only other major alliance in my PnW history to act in a comparable manner was NPO, and I would've thought the overwhelming community opinion on NPO would be a useful pointer for shaping your own behaviour. It came as no surprise to me that, when I made a throwaway comment during the last global war about the surprising lack of political drama from either side - a comment responding to TKR and not mentioning any spheres or alliances - the only one who even noticed and got salty was a t$ gov member. Here's the problem: You habitually and aggressively dispatch your keyboard warriors (most of which are current or former high gov members) to every public "forum", be it this one or any major Discord server, in an effort to control the public conversation, spread your own spin and propaganda, and drown out the spectrum of nuanced opinions from all the other people. Both they and your FA leader's public announcements make use of the full arsenal of all the most toxic and disingenuous methods of political drama: Gaslighting, blatant hypocrisy, bare-faced lies and misrepresentation, malicious accusations, paranoia, conspiracy theories, self-entitled boasting, and of course simple flaming and insults. In fact, they do little else. That is the most common behaviour I and many others have seen from t$ over the past year or so. I could compile a long list of public shitstorms that t$ has sometimes caused, always amplified, and often taken centre stage in. At the same time, you act disproportionally insulted and outraged any time someone makes a negative remark about your own alliance. Unlike the vast majority of even small alliances, you seem to conduct yourself with a complete disregard for moral integrity, I'd go so far as to say even a complete disregard for personal honour and honour of your alliance. Of course this shapes the way your alliance is perceived and judged by others, and to pretend otherwise would be evidence of profound social ineptitude. While these behaviours were present in t$ gov for some time before that, they only became intolerable after the most recent resignation of Partisan. I had a lot of respect for Partisan's style and mentality, even if I did not share it. But he did actually try to talk and act with the purpose of making the game more enjoyable, and he put a very presentable public face onto your alliance. When he left, that veneer of moral integrity dropped, and t$ seems to have lost any temperance in controlling, and self-awareness of, how you conduct yourselves in public. You're not the only alliance that likes to dogpile, and you're not the only alliance that is afraid of getting rolled. But you ARE the only alliance that doesn't really even try to hide just how fragile your egos and just how petty your methods and motives really are. The events of the past year, leading up to this war, made it painfully obvious to anyone with even a shred of public awareness where your behaviour would lead you, and we all knew that you would reap your just rewards for it. In fact, I never even bothered to consider your sphere as a target for a Clock global war - not just because I never use political drama as a reason for war, but because I knew that other spheres do and would give you this war, without any actions from Clock. And honestly, this is a rather evenly-matched war, much unlike the 3 dogpiles you did in 2021. And once again, you act publicly outraged and resort to all the same PR behaviours that got you to this point in the first place. And yet you still made the decision to immediately give up and not even try to fight back militarily, despite being in a good position to put up a meaningful fight with real strategy. Do you really just want your wars to be as cheap as possible and never to even cause meaningful damage to your enemies, other than by dogpiling them when it's easy? You don't even want to be taken seriously anymore, in terms of competence, military might or even honour? Barring actual cheating, this is quite possibly the most pathetic display I've seen from any major alliance, ever. Please, t$, if you have any modicum of self-respect or concern for the health of the game left, I urge you to rethink your entire mindset. Reverse this escalating course of childish behaviour, and try to become the great alliance you once were. The whole game would thank you for it. If you continue on your current trajectory, then I strongly suspect that this game's community will increasingly respect or even tolerate you less and less. People are judged on their actions, and no one else ever cares about what you personally feel you are entitled to.

Good luck, you guys!

I've said this every single time a new IoM alliance pops up... but go choose a different theme. Ya'll suck, and get gud lmfao.

Good luck guys!! 😀🤗🤗

oh hey you guys are back

wat

FYP He's only detrimental to you, not those outside.

Bruh, i just learned how post a DoE.. let me study a bit.

Now i'm going to sit in a corner and start crying all over the night *sob*

Good luck!

just a joke don't take it literally xD

good luck 😄 mandatory: DISBAND MICRO!

Don't let the riff raft bother you. Continue on the way you are. IMO, more content is better than the empty hollow shell of what OWF has become.

I'm completely new to the forums; I don't know what's normal or not. Just decided to make a post about our flag for fun.

😂 Indeed. Soon to be macro, though 😉. Thanks.

MIA TRAITOR @Changeup @LarsarisN @Kode @Jacob Apple You sent Dave because u !@#$ed up and you lied us for some things to make us rejoin. But this is the last politic and the last separation on you because soon you will not exist.

its grumpy, you know this, why do you wound me so?

As someone who knew Jess quite well, personally, I can tell you she’d just be happy we were still prominent enough to warrant this kind of attention. When she left the alliance was going through major brain drain, experiencing member atrophy, and having a difficult time maintaining interest and activity in the game outside of generally just enjoying each other’s company on discord. Since then we have grown tremendously, continued to impact the game in significant ways, and are still breathing, sovereign, autonomous and having fun. You can be as ashamed as you want (we have certainly been ashamed of you from time to time) but don’t ever invoke her name to pad your pathetic opinion again.

Virus, not a parasite. But I hear it was originally going to be named after a greek letter like Omicron, or Alpha and that the alliance is all multis. /s

Hey you're talking to a legend of Orbis... How many alliance leaders do you know who had the balls to auction off members of his own alliance Schrute farm? Also haven't you seen the Sopranos? Dwight's in waste management... Just because some of his money comes from less than legitimate means doesn't mean he's involved in so called "organised crime", or that he's a 'scammer'.... its a stereotype and its offensive. ;v

On today's episode of who is dogpiling WTF this time

With the current push to improve engagement on the forum I believe a way to resist threads being derailed by dubious posts might be to have them visibly flagged within the thread for all potential contributors to see. An accompanying rule or advice that all posts under mod investigation should not be commented on. I don't think hiding the post is a good idea though unless it's grossly inappropriate (which I thought happened anyway). The intent behind this is to reign in threads that result in pages of accusations of appeasement/vicarious guilt which I think is a significant cause of thread derailment.

Regardless of your opinion on this post, Horsecock has written an articulate and well thought out piece. It deserves a good response.

Would it not be possible to take T$ on as a prot, to try to teach them how to git gud when it comes to milcom and FA? I feel like they could learn from the experience.

Can we get an eta on when you are actually leaving?

Sad to see you go but I respect your decision. This game can wear down even the strongest fighters. Thanks for having my back at a time when very few did and I hope everything goes well for you irl. Dms are open if you want to talk. Edit: I see a lot of folks can't even hold back their disdain in a farewell thread. If you don't like Firwof that's fine, I understand. Just don't say anything. Trolling and shitposting here is only distasteful on your part.

Ok

laters Edit: holy crap that post got alot longer, you quitting or just looking for more attention?

I'm leaving the game for good. Some probably don't care. Some probably will. Either way I'm officially out this B. Shout-out to lord Vader, and MH speedy. Two of my favorite leaders in game. Everyone else is just weird. Jesus I wasted so much time looking at pixles on a screen. Also shout-out to Latsu for making the meme below when I was in my prime PnW career. Crunch out.

wait you didnt get spammed by 50 different alliances the second you created your nation? Do you guys not do that stuff anymore?
