  1. Responding to Kemal - was my large colored text not enough? You stated Mensa wants to fight this one on one, I challenged you to a 1 v 1 which you declined, then more Mensans continued to post saying how they would trash Rose 1 v 1. That offer is still on the table, if that's what you're asking.
  2. Our offer is a 1 v 1 with a predetermined start time. A good old fashioned Western showdown.
  3. Apparently Mensa is not interested in a 1 v 1 without allied support. I believe in PnW terms that removes their CB to speak in this thread. Did I do that right?
  4. If you're going to threaten to 1 v 1 someone you should actually 1 v 1 them
  5. If you would like to peace out of your current wars, and rebuild for a day or two, we are receptive to the challenge To put it another way: ROSE FORMALLY CHALLENGES MENSA HQ TO 1 V 1 US!
  6. You mean Eastern NY? I think the city would do just fine. It's still the incumbent finance capital of the world, on the seaboard, a major port and inlet for the Hudson River. I think Albany would stay the capital to maintain the balance between the city and upstate. We have a large number of nuclear power plants, so we're fairly self sufficient there. Agriculture might be an issue, especially during the winter, but besides that we'd be in pretty good shape.
  7. Full support. I am not sure on the appropriate levels of response, but I do know that if the community wants to elevate itself beyond what was de rigueur in those other games it needs to self police.
  8. Best of luck to both parties \o/

    Mea Culpa

    Because sometimes you need someone else to remind you that you're wrong

    Mea Culpa

    Over the past week the focus of all of Orbis has been honed in on a disingenuous banner image featuring a member of Mensa, and made by a member of Rose. This image recently turned turned into a casus belli for a potentially world wide war. After several discussions with some good people, with significant credit going to the good people of tS as well as very kind Tim Armstrong and (surprisingly) insightful Shellhound, I would like to apologize for my actions in encouraging this debacle. Since this is a thread for people to pass judgement here is a review of the debacle: 1.) A member of Rose created a banner utilizing a public and IRL image of a member of Mensa. The image is disingenuous. This banner was not meant to be shared. It goes through several drafts and revisions. 2.) A copy of banner leaks. There is a massive !@#$ storm. As is want to happen, variations of how the image was created, how it was spread, and whether or not it was used as an in game advertisement (it was not). 3.) Realizing said images had leaked Rose leaderships submits takedown requests for all copies of the banner. 4.) Banner copies are taken down in compliance with the requests. 5.) Rose addresses the issue with the member in question. It was during the aforementioned conversations that I realized I have become jaded in my perspective regarding “OOC attacks.†Perhaps it’s been the slow degradation of the community in eRepublik (the game myself and many in MensaHQ came from) or just my long and rancorous history with the individual effected by the caricature, but I have looked on dispassionately at their suffering, and that was wrong. I am sorry. To Pfeiffer, and to the community as a whole. Shellhound perhaps put it best when he said that the community of Politics and War has a much higher standard when it comes to out of character attacks compared to other games, and that is a good thing- a very good thing, because a game is only as good as its community. I have not lived up to those standards. Again, for this I am sorry. Mea Maxima Culpa. Small edit: [23:26:38] <@Avruch> Oblige: its not caucus, didn't we already discuss this?
  14. Ogaden and Jodo in this thread - 10/10.
  15. Inquiring minds are curious as to what the problem was?
  16. Another submission from our dear friend Foxes:
  17. Yes. I bought Pubs some credits for his birthday (cuz I love him) and gave some old eRep people VIP. That's the extent of it. Rose has given me much more than I've given them. At least financially. Our latest works humbly submitted for your enjoyment.
  18. Continue your speculation Raul. Perhaps our alliance is simply better managed than yours? I can assure you not a penny of my personal money has been sent to CGs in this game.
  19. Probably will have to wait until a mobilization. I'll reserve it for you "Weapon 5: Gongawz Elderon"
  20. I haven't had to spend a penny. Rose generously paid for $25,000,000 of damages caused to him by Pfeiffer, and CGs was wise enough to stash about 20m with me in advance, so he actually made out ok. Pretty much broke even on the 50m or so in damages you guys caused.
  21. I like how I am now Mensa's Pfeiffer. The evil shadow hand behind all ill that befalls them. I can live with that
