  1. So are yall some sort of Guardians of the Galaxy? Similar to https://politicsandwar.com/alliance/id=866?
  2. Whoever nominated and voted me for nicest player deserves a lobotomy with that in mind if I don't win nicest player you all are getting a mandatory lobotomy
  3. After an intense interrogation of Krampus in a black cell, the honorable piggy rules that Krampus is not guilty. You literally war dodged despite multiple warnings from IA and EA: You then proceeded to ignore both Krampus and Redd, insist on leaving the alliance mid war, get applicanted, and then cry about it. p.s. sorry Krampoo I yelled at you :3
  4. Literally got a DM a hour ago while my head of econ is asleep, sorry we don't do same hour delivery?
  5. The fact that this DOW is 4 days late says a lot about how late your members were to the blitz. But hey, welcome
  6. @BettaChecka As promised ❤️
  7. Authorities in Singularity must drop the espionage and all other charges against Lysander that relate to his publishing activities as part of his work with the Royal Orbis News (RON). The Singularity government’s unrelenting pursuit of Lysander for having published disclosed documents that included possible war crimes committed by the Singularity military is nothing short of a full-scale assault on the right to freedom of expression. Lysander is currently being held at #jail, a high security prison in the Orbis, on the basis of Singularity extradition request on charges that stem directly from the publication of disclosed documents as part of his work with RON. The Carthaginian Branch of Amnesty International strongly opposes any possibility of Lysander being extradited or sent in any other manner to The Singularity. There, he faces a real risk of serious human rights violations including possible detention conditions that would amount to torture and other ill-treatment (such as prolonged solitary confinement). The fact that he was the target of a negative public campaign by Singularity officials at the highest levels undermines his right to be presumed innocent and puts him at risk of an unfair trial. Lysander’s publication of disclosed documents as part of his work with RON should not be punishable as this activity mirrors conduct that investigative journalists undertake regularly in their professional capacity. Prosecuting Lysander on these charges could have a chilling effect on the right to freedom of expression, leading journalists to self-censor from fear of prosecution. The crimes Singularity (also known as Gular) are guilty of include: Plotted to dogpile on KT in the last week of November “If it aint a dogpile in SIN’s favor then it must be a rigged war!” Tried to gaslight poor Piggy when we tried deescalating on the KT plot by screaming “YOU ARE THE ONE PLANNING TO BLITZ US AND CAM” Piggy is still traumatized and suing for mental health compensation Allies of Singularity placed spies and bounties on CTO’s prots (Nemesys and FSO) and tried pretending otherwise Seriously why are yall so obsessed with my babies, Graybird much? For all these crimes and more, the freedom loving People’s Democratic Republic of Carthago, its mandatory volunteers (MILF, VT, NEM and FSO) and the Knights Templar declare war on Singularity, Cypher, Camelot and The Golden Horde
  8. "Xi Jinping, take me somewhere we can blitz alone I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is nuke You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes""🎵 p.s. My eyes are up here Xi
  9. Preamble: Don’t yall miss the good old days: The good old days of Mensa bulldozing, the days when UPN was somewhat relevant, the days when Pre was still sane, Alex was still a sheep, and of course, who can forget about Paragon. For far too long, Paragone has been ParaGONE. After full consideration and six long years, it only seems right to attempt to reignite the union of Viridian Entente and Rose. Article I: Mutual Training Viridian Entente and Rose agree to mutually attack each other and each other’s allies. Article II: Intelligence Rose’s allies like Oblivion agree to do very not sketchy shit like wipe all of MILF’s spies, doctor screenshots claiming that MILF spied on them first and then militarize threatening to hit CTO/MILF. Article III: Optional Aggression Rose’s other totally not part of Florida allies, House Stark and Guardian, agree to launch a proxy war over 3 fiddy while claiming it is a fair fight. Article IV: The Mercy Act Should either signatory wish to withdraw from this agreement, they can do so unilaterally under the condition of a 7200 day notice period, during which this agreement will remain in full effect. The treaty may be when Rose surrenders and kisses the elephant’s feet. Signed for VE: Very Legit Lord of the Entente: Piggy Secret IQ Puppetmaster: Jax Signed for Rose: Is it still Sketchy and Abbas? Tl;dr Carthago and VE declare war on Florida for Oblivion, Guardian and HS doing stupid shit.
  10. I honestly don't see anything new posted by @Darth Ataxia or @Darth Revan that haven't been repeated a dozen times but I will rehash: We had a deal, he said she said, etc. etc.: So funnily enough, your document is littered with screenshots in our favor. Your silver bullet is this spitball number of $8B that you kept asking us for based on the latest stock price, and you kept saying "you didn't tell us it wasn't the final offer and it was a rough estimate until he had more time". Well, Krampus said in your screenshot that it was just an idea not an agreement. He repeated that the valuation isn't fair again in your own screenshot. When you quote Daveth saying "we will repay" it was in relation to the debt in general. CTO had every intention to repay a fair and just amount, just not the absurd $8B that is 3x investment. See this and this. Besides your ONE instance of Krampus saying "maybe $8B, I will get back to you" in the middle of exam season, there are multiple screenshots dating from September 2022 to now claiming that $8B is an unfair valuation. Once again I will acknowledge that Krampus should have communicated more clearly, but I will not admit fault when you cling onto one offhand comment when there are a dozen of official responses stating that $8B is too high and bank is worth far less. You claim that HS was trying to negotiate fairly and in good faith: Y'all have clung on to the $8B number since last year based on a stock price that was before OWR collapse (and again, stock price is a poor measure of intrinsic value especially in liquidation scenarios). Even now you repeat one screenshot to build your entire case. You claim you were willing to settle but ghosted us from March to June. If that is fair negotiation, I guess I need to learn. Your claims that no documents were given until now is pretty moot if you chose to ignore all of our outreaches for months. Should I have tracked HS down irl and sent a carrier pigeon to your house with the loan documents? I hear multiple claims of "we were busy so we didn't respond to your dozens of DMs until we decided to organize a blitz". First of all, congrats Ataxia on the child (genuinely mean this OOC). But second, come on, you can't eat your cake and have it lol. CTO can't respond adequately when busy and has to get back to you is problematic, but HS can ghost for 3 months an organize a war? Pick. CTO has been willing to pay HS for TFnd. But we are unwilling to pay for an absurd valuation as outlined by the spreadsheet. I am personally frustrated because all of this could have been resolved if HS bothered to actually respond to us over the past few months instead of playing hide and seek. But hey, feel free to hide behind Guardian's skirts and claim that a dogpile against a newly rebuilt and demilitarized target is justice.
  11. Yes, I admit that this sheet is not perfect to the decimal, the point was to show that HS's number is absurd. I had Krampus's loan data and a few hours to summarize everything and post a ROH. I am not 30 professional accountants working for Goldman Sachs with a quarter to grind out a 10Q, if you want to apply SEC standards to it, sure lol. But as Borg mentioned, even with the errors accounted for, it makes a minimal difference and far bridges the $8B gap. If we add in other costs and less conservative bond interest rate expense assumptions as detailed in tab 2, HS might have even less. To keep my ROH concise I focused on HS's CB. But as others have pointed out, there is obviously a lot of problems with dogpile and ROI etc etc. So I will quote you:
  12. Good catch, I must have misclicked while getting this in by DC. I have adjusted the equation. It had an overall small impact on the numbers - and brings HS to an equity value of $2.5B. Still far under their valuation of $8B. I corrected the ID using old logs, hopefully this helps.
  13. Tl;Dr: House Stark wants $8B or 3x initial investment for their shares in The Foundation, which only has $4.5B in currently available assets. They own 33% shares, and even when accounting for half of OWR's shares, they would only receive $2.2 billion. Carthago has made repeated attempts to compensate them for more than what the current market value is, while being ghosted for months. House Stark has a wall of text of claims - but let me boil their accusations down for you into a few bullet points and give some context: House Stark, OWR, and Carthago were a part of Nexus and invested a few billion each into the bank; HS in particular invested ~$2B The purpose of the “bank” was a basically shared bloc fund, the terms were: ~1-2% interest loans Free rebuilds In other words, the bank was barely profitable and was more of an organized effort by Nexus to grow together At the end of Nexus, House Stark wanted to divest and audaciously claimed that, based on the latest stock price, they are entitled to $8 billion, a staggering 3x return on their investments…. The bank was more of a shared alliance fund that had little profits…. So how would it be worth 3x? See below for attached sheet and explanation of actual valuation (bank has $4.5B in equity and $4.4B in outstanding loans) Carthago felt that the latest stock price is a hilariously bad indicator of how much the bank is actually worth, and offered to reimburse a more reasonable amount of their initial investment along with some future payments when outstanding loans are recovered, but HS either a.) ghosted or b.) said no CTO attempts at reaching a settlement: House Stark misunderstands finances, the true value of The Foundation is much less Latest stock prices are never a reflection of the true value of an investment Let's look to basic finance in the real world: If a company fire sales 50% of their stocks today, the stock market would crash and the individual would get much less than the price they expect: For example, when Tesla’s intrinsic value was low but stock price was stupidly high at $1,200; if Elon wanted to cash out for 50% of Tesla’s stock, he wouldn’t get the price of $1,200 per share, he would end up with a lot less If Elon was forced to liquidate Tesla which had like barely any assets compared to the market cap, he would end up with $12 per share. Now back to PnW, The Foundation itself doesn’t have a valuation of $16 billion (HS claims their 33% shares + half of defunct OWR shares gives them $8 billion) Look at the spreadsheet, when accounting for all gains and losses and excluding outstanding loans, there is currently $4,571,483,510.89 in available equity (much less than $16B) to stakeholders. If HS was to sell their equity rather than accept CTO's offer of $2.6B, they would only get $2,285,741,755.45. So House Stark wants to go down the liquidation route? Ok, the bank has ~$4.5B in available liquidity and $4.4B in outstanding loans In the bull case: Assuming all loans are sold at market value and no one defaults, HS would get half of the amount ($4,523,976,611.26) they feel entitled to In the base case: Loans are sold for cents on the dollar and defaults happen because debtors see a closing bank and make a run, HS would be getting likely ~3B Now, I know when HS reads this post, they're going to say "Ok even though the math checks out, Krampus said he would pay $8B over 8 months". A couple things on the screenshot: Here is the full screenshot context Krampus was in the middle of exam season (as he stressed to Ata multiple times) and did not have time to calculate a clear amount After being spammed multiple times about being paid back based on latest stock price, Krampus gave a spit ball offer. Krampus said "I will get back to you" as in ok he will double check the math, talk to the rest of govt, and finalize the offer when he's free "I will get back to you" in no way implies ok this is final lets all shake hands and ink it. After exams, Krampus noticed a spreadsheet mistake that didn't adjust for defaults (OWR deletion caused a few lost loans), Krampus adjusted the value and noticed that HS would actually lose money in the case of an equity pull out. And if all out liquidation happened, they would still get less than $8B Krampus and Jax then made a few different offers to HS which fell apart, followed by months of ghosting. Multiple attempts to reach out and reconnect on a fairer price were reached (check section on "CTO attempts at reaching a settlement") Relying their entire CB essentially on this one spit ball number threw out during exam season is a very weak claim Final thoughts: This seems to be a massive miscommunication issue of he said she said, but the numbers of TFnd tell the best story, the bank is valued a lot less than HS claims it is worth but CTO is willing to negotiate a settlement as long as it is not an absurd valuation. While I agree Krampus should have communicated more clearly about the exact valuation and how the number was reached, at the same time HS should not have ghosted CTO for the past few months. There were plenty of opportunities for due diligence instead of war. The Foundation Spreadsheet:
  14. "Beyond the flames of Ragnarok lies the hallowed halls of Valhalla, where fallen warriors feast and fight alongside the bravest of the brave. There they await the final battle, their blades ever sharp, their spirits unyielding, for they know that in the end, it is their valor that will usher in a new world." Terms: 1. White Peace: After the day change (0 UTC) from 05/07 into 05/08 - both parties will cease hostilities. No new wars or spy ops will be declared after the turn. Existing wars can be concluded in any way based on members’ own discretions. 2. NAPs Are Bad, M’kay?: Both parties will not enforce a NAP after this war. 3. #PiggyDidNothingWrong - Midgard will renounce its imposed terms from the Bifrost Blitz (aka the Midgard CB was not valid) 4. Go Back To Where You Came From - All Alliances go back to their original color blocs. VERY Important Terms: 1. MILF gets a frog drawing by SW, UPN or TI. 2. Daveth gets an elephant drawing, holding the flag of Midgard.
