A VM'er could've still voted in that poll so, once again its not indicative of what tCW's intentions are, and yes some VM people are still members at least until they may/may not get kicked. I didn't vote in that poll cause its meaningless and the fact people are still talking about it is hilarious, we aren't going to have peace not until our allies all agree as a bloc. Until such time as that happens the war will continue.

Pacifists will still fight if it comes down to it. Many people objected to the war in the US, but once Pearl Harbour hit the majority of Pacifists were in favour of fighting and winning the war.

Ahh that was AiOS who fled from tCW to TFP one day before the war broke out, ty for bringing the pain to these legit war dodgers. Also Kasim I remember from Pantheon who use to love using VM during wars, looking through TFP's member list I recognize many names from back in Pantheon. A leopard doesn't change its spots. At this point the "Fighting" in TFP is an oxymoron.

And adding to this the entire gov of tCW is happy to fight with our allies as long as possible. Peace will be reached when all alliances on our side agree to it, we aren't abandoning our allies. The poll was the idea of a member who wanted to hear what peoples thoughts were. 18/82 votes isn't a true snapshot of tCW, some elections are voided if a certain % of turnout isn't reached.

At this stage Knightfall did more to help kill monetary and resource inflation than Alex's Econ updates.

@Akuryo Hahaha, I don't know what you did mate but you've really triggered this guy. Must be those trap skills. xD Hey mate I think you need to brush up on your comprehension skills, this might help: https://www.teachersuperstore.com.au/achievement-standards-assessment-english-comprehension-year-1 Our side didn't have too many problems with the "Joke Terms", apart from Ronny and Grumpy to GOB. Its the other articles that brought the talks to a standstill.

I'm sure he's around here somewhere Pika. Have you checked the closet to make sure he hasn't locked himself in again. Also note to self: Get my lazy arse into gear so I don't miss today's Great Job episode.

Probably one of the worse suggestions I've ever read, no surprises this came from someone with 3 cities who from just 3 days worth of log in bonus would have enough cash to build city 4. Those 3 bullet points also tell me you have 0 understanding of what balance of power is and how this negativity effects the game, it would practically allow you to cripple foes in dogpiles and destroys any sense of rivalry and competition in the game. Whilst someone with 10 cities might be not that phased with having a city nuked out of existence since the cost to rebuild it is tiny, however in my case my last city cost me $1,419,703,750, I'd rather not lose something like that from some random nuke rouger.

Seeing these arguments between you and AK (Basically whose entire gov is former Pantheon low gov) brings back memories of those massive debates back in Pantheon's gov discord channels with me as the only Olympian for a period of time with you, Skae, Avien, Rainbow, Edgeworth, Ren etc all as Deities. Dysfunctional times but they were still fun times. Don't have anything against AK personally, (Apart from trying to kill my grandfather from 1940-1943) but its good to see you aren't trying to get your hand in all the cookie jars. If you tried to keep t$ and have BK as protectors it would reek of being incapable of mounting any sort of defence. Also just because, here's Monty: @Shiho Nishizumi

You realise you're actually harming your alliances FA reputation when you make low-brow insults against sphere leaders. Plenty of people who've made a fool out of themselves on the OWF have never been able to recover from the damage to their rep from that. You'll find the majority of people who voice their opinions aren't this "on-dimensional hive mind" that you and others seem to think is out to get people. I've had times when my posts have been upvoted by IQ, EMC, Vanguard, t$, Arrgh, KT/TGH etc, and times when people have down-voted them. People of course have different views but if you actually post something that's funny, gives people some insight into the wider politics or just helps the discussion advance people will take notice of your impact on the forum. If you post ill thought out rubbish that doesn't contribute to the discussion, is completely off-topic or on the odd-rare occasion do so out of spite then you will get downvotes. Yes the forums can be a volatile places from time to time but that's what makes the politics of the game the most enjoyable, with the clash of agendas, goals, conflicts personalities etc. You're correct that not everyone uses the forums, but the vast majority of the player-base don't dictate or direct the flow of foreign policy between alliances. You'll find around 100 or so influential people (With an even smaller amount of very influential people) on this community who are the real cogs behind the politicking between the power blocs, the OWF is just one place where this takes place. Just because someone doesn't post doesn't mean they don't stay engaged, I read the forums regularly without posting for over a year, and I know many many others who read OWF announcements, treaty signings etc but just refrain from posting. Despite being in TKR's sphere for over 2 1/2 years I quite like KT/TGH, our war we fought made me respect the hell out of them and I have built up many friends from both KT/TGH. TGH deserve mad props for creating a top tier alliance in less than one month that never gave up in the lop-sided war they fought against us. They actually put a lot more thought into their up/down votes than you think and influence wise they certainly punch well above their weight in global politics in this game.

Why both?? Surely this is more suitable for AK:

The irony of you Shiho, with your entire nation themed on GuP, attacking an alliance themed on GuP (With a hint of Rommel). Which reminds me I need to watch Das Finale, and the OVA's as well. At the rate you're going mate you're going to give Element85 a run for his money in number of downvotes.

Wow... mate I was wondering back when I first heard BK's old anthem from 2016, where they got the "Ayy Lmao" phrase that kept on repeating whilst they said the names of the BK gov at the time: Lord Sturm, Yosodog, Tiber, Shifty Stranger, Natinator, Jose Rodriquez, Zoot. Shame BK doesn't have that old anthem anymore, IMO I liked it better than the current one. Still happy 4th birthday BK, onwards to your 5th anniversary you crazy bastards, may you grace us with years more of memes to come!

If Goro eats a few more nukes from Grumpy and Guardian then you'll be 1st in score pretty soon. 2019: Fraggle world order!

Welcome mate. Couple pointers on city design and general tips 1: You have nuke plants in each city so no need for the extra 2 coal power plants in your first city. 2: Don't buy farms until you have 2.5k-3k land each city. Just import food as its more efficient that way saving you valuable improvement slots. 3: Max hangars regardless, and as Blitz said drop some Tanks. Swap some of the farms/barracks for more hangars. 4:I also don't recommend Uranium mines as Uran is still pretty cheap and you'd make more money with other resource improvements (Say Iron mines) than with the Uran mines. Just import Uran as you need it. Try to make sure you have at least a 7 days supply of Uran. 5: Keep all future cities at 1.5k Infra until at least 10-12 cities. After then 2k is a good limit until you have 20 cities. 6: Raid, Raid, Raid. Providing you follow your alliances rules on raiding you can make an excellent profit and help turbo charge your growth if you raid often, most alliances will have guides for that or just ask around if advice if you're a little unsure. Edgeworth can confirm that. ;.P Don't worry too much about that. PnW has a lot whole of different personalities so some will clash time to time. I admit when I joined this game almost 1,000 days ago I doubted I'd enjoy it yet I've met some pretty awesome people and IMO the community aspect of it is the best part of the game. Also judging by your profile pic I assume you like Anime, tCW's discord server has quite a few of you Weeaboos (Unfortunately ;,P), so you're more than welcome to join. So if you're down for a chat just give me a shout in game "Sphinx" or on Discord Sphinx#0497 - Sphinx

You guys realise that unlike Girls und Panzer you don't have plot armour right? Attacking Arrgh is basically like the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan, they'll just drag this out as long as possible and just because you want to call it quits doesn't mean they'll leave you alone. Still good luck to you both.

57.7 years left for me, if I just hang in there I might still be around when the stats aren't down for maintenance.

Clearly Roz spiked the punch and everyone's hallucinating.

Even the bastard lovechild of Partisan, Roq, Ripper, Nizam, Buor, Pre and Roz all rolled into one couldn't bring world peace despite all that influence, so obviously you're off to a flying start. Also I call dibs on tCW's spot.

He should've just named it "Egyptian Empire: Public Relations Suicide"

When the stats aren't online for 6 days now. I promise to sacrifice a small animal to Roq if he updates the stats

Hey I did that once and TGH made a meme out of me. EDIT: Found it, I wanted to click timeline... >_> @Hodor https://forum.politicsandwar.com/index.php?/topic/23445-propaganda-time/&amp;do=findComment&amp;comment=373448

I'm very sorry to hear this scumbag has taken to doing such a reprehensible act. As others have said get in contact with your local police, hopefully they can help. I didn't get to speak to you much apart from peace negotiations with UH-DU, but I found you to be a very reasonable person, who is willing to be flexible if necessary a sorely needed trait in this game, which will be sad to see you go. UH has been growing quite well so take pride in what you created, many new alliances struggle past their first few months but UH is in good hands so hopefully what you created can continue on onwards and upwards. I hope you and your GF are alright, and this Idiot doesn't contact you anymore. I'd also suggest letting others know who these people are (Public if you want), people who dox others should be named and shamed in public.

Take all the time you guys need. These stats are exemplary and a massive help to see how each of us are going, looking forward to seeing the improvements.
