[[Treaty] Why NAP when you can sleep?]

Just FYI - If @Dr James Wilsonknows the context, and continued to “ignore” @Sketchy’s points…

…that makes the situation worse for you guys and justifies Sketchy’s feelings about your sphere, and the current decision that was made regarding this NAP.

Ignore them?  I didn't ignore them.   I dismissed them.  They're bad points.

If you don't want to respond to points made, stop chiming in. You clearly aren't looped in enough to be able to argue your case.

I'll pay you the same courtesy and not bother to respond to anything you said.

It's not my fault your points suck.

"Rescued"

ODOO set terms and conditions on us for their entry that were undoubtedly beneficial to themselves. Their entry was self interest, a prid quo pro. By that point in the war, we had already taken all the damage we were going to take.

Peace negotiations with SAIL and us would have taken place and been finished well before the extended war would have, had parties remained in the coalition instead of peacing out.

We could have taken a long NAP and sat and allowed for things to play out without us. It would have been more beneficial for us to do so. We opted to make a deal that would prolong the conflict we had already been fighting for 2 months (preceding 2 months of fighting others) in order to make a move that would benefit all parties, That would have committed us to at least 5 months of straight war.

The assertion that we were rescued from anything is laughable. I'm not going to expand on what your terms were, despite the various wild claims being made here, but the fact is, you guys had a deal on the table that worked for you, and that is why you helped.

And then you walked away from the deal. And very abruptly. We all know how much of a mess that was.

As far as us being "angry" goes, I hadn't really intended to get involved in this discussion much. But certain claims were made here that required addressing, and I think it's interesting you guys have chosen to single us out, given everyone else who signed onto the nap, including alliances you claim to have good relations with, and, all in all, we owe you the least here besides perhaps Eclipse.

TKR immediately planned to attack us as soon as the Fortuna war in which we fought together was over. And they did, bringing in Syndicate. That put us under a NAP cycle, the same one that prompted their entry into our war later on.

TKR made a deal that, as I said earlier, was beneficial to them, in order to bring themselves in, and then when things got too hairy for them, struck a different deal behind our backs, and attempted to exclude us from the process, which would have inevitably left us in the same war they are purported to have rescued us from lmfao.

These are all claims I can easily support with evidence, if I have to. Despite all this, we have not gone after or targeted you directly, this entire time. We could have easily sought revenge on TKR/ODOO for your previous attacks on us, we could have easily sought to align with people attempting to hit you this cycle, and, with this nap in place, we could easily align with the current coalition against you. Instead, we have, more than once, attempted to work with you, and find mutual common ground and cut deals with you that would work to our mutual benefit.

But past behaviour is a pretty good indicator for future behaviour, and TKR has proven time and time again, that collaboration with you ends poorly for us.

Perhaps you'd prefer me to sit alongside you, whisper sweet nothings in your ear, and pretend like I wasn't one of the alliances who signed onto the NAP? Given who you guys have chosen as the target of your ire here, it feels to me that you'd rather hear comfortable lies than brutal honesty.

It's funny you say that you aren't mad when that comment prompted your WoT.   I can't say I find your complaining about us entering the war on our terms something worth responding too.  Or your quip about not being rescued even though you guys were still asking us to enter.   Or your whining about being at war for so long when you engaged in that infra shaving campaign of your own free will.   Thats on you.   You don't get to pull that out of a bag as a retort.

The rest of your post is basically just you crapping on TKR and wanting to rehash your entire relationship with them it seems.   They can deal with that nonsense if they want too.  But maybe some have singled you guys out because you sure are doing a lot of talking about it.  As for past behaviors, do be careful not to throw stones from your glass house.

I've never seen a group of people so angry at being rescued from a beatdown that they deserved and basically begged for.

Nah. I'm just pointing out that it doesn't really make sense, in my opinion, to claim activating a defensive clause that didn't exist at the start of the war. And, in my opinion, this should be a DoW not an RoH since we never attacked USN. Like I said, they can have fun trying to find slots. Good luck, have fun.

 

(Also I am happy for the both of you that you have a new treaty)

Would have been involved in the war if your shadow gov hadn't hijacked another AA and kept them out of the war but, good try!

If you wanted to merge into Paradise, you could ask us more subtly. This is just far too forward. (Btw you need two tickets in order to get into Paradise)

We could barely afford one ticket, kev.   Two is asking too much of us.

[[RoH] A Ticket to Paradise]

Aurora had always dreamed of going to Florida

Their bedroom walls were covered with posters of palm trees, beaches, and theme parks. They talked about it every day, telling us about all the exciting things they wanted to do there.

However, we Midgardians, have always lived in a small treehouse, and money was always tight, especially when Aurora's frequent meltdowns trashed the living room draining our accounts time and again.  We could never afford to go on vacations, let alone to Florida.   But we knew how much this meant to Aurora, so we decided to do everything we could to make their dream come true and change the locks while they were gone.

We started saving every penny we could find, cutting back on expenses and working odd jobs under the table.  We sold some of our belongings, skipped meals.  It was a tough time for us Midgardians, doing all this extra work while Aurora sat on the couch yelling at everyone to work harder as they ate a bag of puffed cheetos taking no notice as we all grew skinnier and wore the same clothes more often.   Not Aurora though, nothing changed for them or their motley crew couch surfing friends.

Finally, after months of hard work and sacrifice, we were able to scrape together enough money to buy one ticket to Florida!!!   On Frontier!   We even managed to get them a cheap taxi to the airport and a personal chauffer to carry them and their couch surfing friends out of the house quickly.

Aurora, below you will find the ticket to Florida you have always dreamed of and we will find the peace of mind with having you out of our lives for good

Enjoy your trip

 

tl;dr: Midgard recognizes a state of war with our former Sphere members.

[(Treaty) Home]

 

Midgard

It is the core of all creation and the heart of all matter. 

 

Home is the place where life has meaning,

where the spirit can be at peace and the body at rest. 

Home is the place to which we want to return.  

Home is where the road ends and the adventure begins.

 

Home is Midgard

 

The Immortals

Quote

With the value of their humble home in the heart of Hollywood nearly tripling since they bought it, The Immortals have decided to sell it and embark on new horizons. The esteemed stars of Hollywood drive their actor trailers along the highway, in search of the perfect home. The road stretches out before them until their eyes are drawn to a faint glow on the side of the road. With curious, childlike excitement they drive towards the light.

 

As they get closer, they notice that the world around them is bending. The traffic, full of tourists, streaks into nothing but a swirling portal. As The Immortals continue to drive further into the portal, the streets and cars dissipate into nothingness.

 

That was the last time The Immortals were ever seen in Hollywood.

Aurora

Quote

On Proxima Centauri, where the space fleet Aurora lies, communication comes in several forms. Holographic displays, radio transmissions, and occasionally, voice messages. One night, the captain of the fleet receives a voice message that he could not have imagined receiving.

“We believe to have found our home world,” The hologram tells the captain, in a voice that echoes throughout the ship.

 

“Our home? That's strange...” The captain asks, perplexed.

 

“Strange is not the word for it, Captain. I think the words ‘magical’ and ‘mysterious’ would fit the moment better."

 

"How do we know for sure?" The captain asks, still not convinced.

 

The hologram pauses for a moment, before beginning to slowly glide around the vessel, and through the console rooms.

 

"On Proxima Centauri, you can see portals. Miserable, unsightly, and crude though they may be, they are in fact portals to a new planet."

 

"A new planet?" The captain says, almost pleading.

 

"Yes, Captain, one that mirrors our home planet in virtually every way."

 

The captain is in awe, his imagination running wild. He opens up the ship's controls.

 

"Set our sights for the portal and prepare the fleet. We are on our way.”

The Dark Brotherhood

Quote

The Dark Brotherhood is an international network of assassins that abide by a strict code of secrecy. 

Every year, they set sail for a faraway destination to carry out their annual rituals. However, during their last journey, the crew miscalculated their course and crashed into a Sea Serpent. Their ship was quickly torn apart, and the crew was forced to fend for themselves in the brutal battle. 

 

They were able to wound the Sea Serpent, but just as it was about to pull away, its eyes glowed and it launched at them, tossing any survivors into the sky. The Serpent opened its mouth, ready to devour them. 

 

 

As the crew fell into the creature's maw, the leader performed one last ritual. Just before the creature swallowed them whole, the crew flashed away from the Serpent and was transported into another realm.

 

United Purple Nations

Quote

The capital of the United Purple Nations is the infamous haunted mansion of the Monkeetha Knight, whose gruesome grisly deaths are the stuff of nightmares. Over the years, spiritual activity has been increasing within one of the rooms of the structure. The Chief of Staff has received rumors that the ghost of an ancient witch and portal to another dimension has taken residence within the dark room.

 

While researching the rumors, the Chief of Staff discovers an old door that has been spiritually sealed by an ancient spell. When he approaches the door, a loud voice echoes within his ears.

 

"Do you wish to see beyond the walls of your world?"

 

The Chief of Staff is startled by the voice, but before he can make sense of it, the room begins to rotate. The chief staggers back, losing his footing on the floor, and falls to the ground. A searing pain flares up in his shoulder, but he shakes it off and holds out his hand to the door.

 

"Come in." The door opens, and the Chief of Staff falls into the room beyond the wall.

I honestly expected to find more than I did when I looked. Good on the rest of TI, I'm not mad to be wrong about that. But those 2 that did do it also did it to me in the past, as I brought up earlier, which obscured what my actual stats would have been. I apologize to the rest of TI though that didn't sell down I'm glad I am wrong.

But as far as those other 2 TI players that I did catch I am 100% not sorry. You guys suck.👎

So...if it hadn't been the same two nations you would have found...4?   Out of 140?   Man, your argument just gets better and better.   We appreciate your apology though.

Speaking of TI, are they really that slow on the uptick, or is it a timezone thing? Like, really? Y'all took FIVE HOURS to slot me. 
FIVE. 

The heck? I expected a quicker response from you all. Also who in the world at TKR thought it would be a good idea to go after us (Rose, that is) - from my understanding, you just lost a big war to Hands of Fate the other week, right? I paid a credit to slap this 10-minute creation up as a player ad.

Wouldn't put any stock in the fact that we actually have a sizeable European membership or that we didn't give any warning.   But, as you were indeed slotted a mere, 2 turns later, I think it's just fine.
