  1. I did. Get your facts straight and lay off my gambling.
  2. Nah. If you get leaks, share the leaks, and continuously taunt the leaked party with the leaks while sitting as an acting high gov member, but especially FA, you got it coming. ... especially when your "news" organization is well known for censoring leaks from it's management's aas/allies and is run by people who self admittedly do not care if their story is right, just that they're first.
  3. Krampus? Humble? Come now - there's a lot that can be said positively about my dear friend, but humble?
  4. This part tickled me. The only thing we're "beholden" to is the treaty we signed and agreed to. Hopefully that's not too foreign a concept for you?
  5. Hey, we can always keep up the NAP trend for the sake of the milcoms. 8-12 months?
  6. I got tired of waiting - hope that's okay.
  7. An interesting standard to set. Congrats on peace.
  8. Nukes are, generally speaking, only used when traditional warfare isn't an option. These changes would fix a non-existing problem and create entirely new ones. Nukes are not as powerful as you may think, nor is radiation.
  9. Welcome back - don't forget to update your linked account btw
  10. I, for one, welcome out hivemind overlords. May Orbis be covered in the blood of those who deny it peace.
  11. Congrats on a well deserved retirement friend, may it treat you well.
  12. Everyone's well aware of their cockroach status by now, I can't actually recall the last time someone was surprised they were still around.
  13. Response time and simplicity. Not to mention stability. I know you address some of this further into the post, but I'll expand a bit. The average member does not know the political landscape of the game. While partial fault is on FA leadership, its not fully on them. Plenty of news channels and other resources exist to at least get an idea of it, even if it lacks significant detail. Somewhat true, but you're missing some things here. Every aa I've been in actively invites people to learn govt work in the dept of their choice - this has been true for every one of them - from KT, to t$, to even Assassins Order way back in the day. The issue? The people who aren't outgoing don't apply. And if they do, they more often than not fizzle out due to lack of communication. You *have* to be some level of outgoing to be any gov role. Communication is paramount- both with other gov members and your rank and file. If you're reserved, you might be okay in a lowe position but you probably won't excel in leadership - trust is important for that role and you can't have trust if you don't talk. Agreed - but ties back into previous points a bit. FA especially is a very very difficult role to get filled, partially because it can be intimidating for newer folks, but also partially because you have to have a certain personality and drive to "break in" to the FA upper echelon. That's definitely a fault with the current (and historical past) FA enviroment that should be addressed - but it exists and needs to be accounted for nonetheless. I've addressed this a bit in the past, but I think the community as a whole needs to readjust and be more willing to assist new alliances rather than pushing them to the side. There's a consistent complaint about the same few alliances running the politics - but any new blood is laughed away instead of guided into fixing their mistakes. Protectorates are being made, but not often properly trained, if at all. It seems a trend to sign a decent sized micro, minimally help them, then expect to absorb them when they inevitably fail from lack of guidance. Only problem I have with this is we're as a whole allowing them to go to waste as mentioned above. Imo the more the merrier. .. enjoy PNW? Might be your worst take yet I think a big problem with all of these as well is leaks. Every major and most minor aas have been burned more than once by leaks - and its lead to a very reclusive governing standard fueled by justifiable paranoia. Its difficult to be open with your alliance when you're also looking over your shoulder constantly. There's middleground that can be reached, certainly, but its easier to keep things brief and under wraps.
  14. The problem is, HS has so far been playing the "Well SOMEONE had to do terms" wrt the NPO scare, while then offering these as a first draft. I won't comment on any updates since, but the original terms were 16 some odd billion paid out to two aas, one thats not even involved nor cared to tried to get it, prior to rebuild, as well as no food production (which afaik is CTOs main revenue. The reason y'all are getting backlash, as much as it pains me to side with Krampus, is that these are incredibly petty and crippling terms. I genuinely think if you'd even left out the "prior to rebuild" part you wouldn't have caught nearly as much flak. Sure, the room for negotiation is there, but I don't think CTOs in the wrong for perceiving it as bad faith.
  15. ok but based OP since op is inactive you can just send me your money instead my cv:
  16. Not to drag up old news, but they were given numerous chances from myself and Partisan to stay on green so long as they helped Syndi do purges, as per an existing agreement, and they failed to follow through on their end. All it would've taken is them hitting green nations on none/small micros that dragged the score down to be able to stay, and they refused. I even gave them another chance during the war to agree to it before I added that to the terms.
  17. Any decent alliance is going to deny/ignore you immediate for this alone.
