thank goodness you guys joined, the war was looking like it could go either way

Swamp is still lying and pretending that they're the good guys? Again, I ask, who are you trying to convince? Us, or the rest of the world you organized to dogpile us?

Rolled? No. But the battlefield performance of Dumpster Coalition leaves much to be desired. Swamp vs Arrgh is but a preview.

Imagine plotting a 3v1 dogpile and still getting your asses handed to you, both on the battlefield and on the forums. It's hilarious how much of a dumpster coalition Swamp and friends are.

Tear 'em up boys!

It was a lot louder when they were still shouting "hegemony" from the rooftops to pretend they were the good guys in this. There were a few baseless accusations that we were going to do IQ stuff and "roll people out of the game" but I can't be assed to dig them up. Whole thing is a farce, and the world ain't gonna be pretty on the other side.

Well, people are dogpiling us with a laughable accusation that somehow we were trying to "roll others out of the game" by peacefully building in our own little corner, so yeah, I think shit is going to be a lot different in a lot of not so great ways. It's the world they chose to build.

Thanks, been looking to update my signature.

Swamp is projecting their own attitudes onto us. They know they're the bad guy, it's about how many people they can hoodwink into thinking the opposite. When we wouldn't merge spheres with TI to become an actual hegemony like TI wanted, we became an obstacle to their designs. So here we are.

This is my bridge. Good to know it doesn't take much to get you lot whining though.

I'm not here for your personal entertainment, child.

This DoW is going to be remembered for a long time for truly legendary levels of hypocrisy and unintentional irony.

We militarized only after we got intel that you all were plotting to roll us in about a month. Stop spreading lies and own up to your plot. Stop pretending. We're fine to fight, but please at least have the integrity to admit what you did.

no, bots are illegal. but we might want to consider paying people with anime translations or something.

All hands on deck to stop tHe hEgEmoNy Are you all really that terrified of our organizational ability? Damn.

Thank you for the compliment to our superior skills and abilities, I guess. Too bad you felt you needed to plot to roll us to make up for your own lack of comparable ability.

Stop projecting your ambitions onto us. At no point did Quack ever have any hair of a plan to roll anyone out of the game. We had no plans to do anything but build ourselves in relative peace, until you decided to plot to roll us for "getting too big" (what a joke). Your over the top hyperbole I fear is projecting your own designs for this world. At least we know your game plan, thanks for letting us know. We fought this fight last time and we'll fight it again. And we will persevere.

Nobody believes this bub. You don't, we don't, and I doubt any uninvolved parties, if there are even any left, are buying it. We're like 20% of the game. A hegemony is not 20%. You want to make your big play to take over the game? Fine, but at least be a man enough to own up to it. I've been under the jackboots of people far, far scarier than you lot. I'm ready.

its all hands on deck for this one, gonna be close, that's for sure. not easy taking down a hegemony.

Here's the actual suggestion: When Quack rejected your offer to merge and become the new hegemony, our existence instead became an obstacle to your ambitions, and you went off and formed Swamp and this whole little plot to take what you felt you deserved. You sold fear to smaller blocs, projecting onto us your own desires and ambitions, and strung them along for this war. How's that?

Lets see, 80% of the game was ready to roll us flat at the drop of a hat, we had intel that this was coming and even planned, we've done nothing to provoke this plot against us, but our mere audacity to build up and fight on our own terms when the intel reached us is now hilariously being spun to no end by people (Again, notably, not Swamp here, at least not publicly) that we're somehow the bad guys for doing what we were left with no choice to do. Because we got big enough to be competitive with Swamp (maybe we have 20%-30% of the game's stats) and because, ironically, we refused to become part of a hegemonic force by merging spheres when others asked us to, now we are the hegemony? What a riot. The "yOu'Re a hEgEmOny" nonsense is as thin as it is laughable, but the reality is that we got big enough to be in the way of someone else's ambitions. Justify as you must how you were strung along to set someone else up on top, because that's exactly what happened. I've been playing these sorts of games for two decades, you don't have any damn clue what a hegemony looks like. But you are about to find out. They don't seem to understand that secret treaties are no longer secret once they get activated. They think they're still hiding something. lol.

We clearly have not, as literally 80% of the world hit us accusing us of being a hegemony, doesn't seem we really had anyone else on our side. Seems like we probably weren't plotting to hit random people for "getting too big" and instead were focusing on growth. Especially when you factor in that we actively turned down people who wanted to treaty with us. That's some real smart plotting on our part, they'll never see it coming! (Honestly, I want to yell at the leaders on our side for not doing more to build more relationships because, well, lol) But if it helps you to keep pretending we're somehow the crooks in all this, go right on ahead. Don't expect our sympathy when some sort of swamp monster comes for you next, lmao.

Are you still pretending we ever had a choice? Come on. We know you all got pulled together to roll us. Hell, my money is that the log leaks were part of the setup. You can shout "hegemony" all you want, but the reality simply is that we were in the way of someone else's ambitions. Who could that possibly be? Hmmm.

I don't know how you guys literally plotting to roll us is a "fickle" CB. We're just fighting now instead of later. This one is 100% on y'all. Not us. Again, who are you trying to convince? Everyone knows about the plan, our side was made aware (hence this war), obviously all of you were well aware of your plan, the instant counters make it plainly obvious, who actually are you selling this line to?

I notice that Swamp aren't the ones out here peddling this silly "hegemony" theory. It's all Hedge and Rose talking it up like it's a real thing. Still trying to convince yourselves that you made the right call?
