I look forward to applying this to your own future plotting. Or are you saying you never plot to roll someone and never will in the future, lol.

Is that honestly what DEIC are telling you? Just do some research and look at the warscreens. EoS attacked TAC, then multiple EoS members said it would be 1v1. Fine, good match, it'll be fun to watch. Then a VoC said the same that EoS could handle itself. Finally when EoS was getting beat, UPN had two people jump the gun, then UPN lied about the attack on TAC, even after no one believed them. They continued to lie and destroyed any credibility they might've had. And then VoC joins the fight after saying it wouldn't. That could get you up to speed. If you want more info come to #guardian. This is the alliance and bloc you are in. This is the stuff they try to pull.

Welcome, feel free to msg me if you have any questions!

UPN name calling, awesome man. It's not semantics. This is a case of spin, not semantics. You are trying to paint it as a case of semantics, but it is not, lol. So before you start the petty name-calling, go re-read what I said. We both agree on the terms like "aggressors" or "aggression" and "defense" in their pure form. And that's what you have to do in a semantic dispute, to resolve it. If you defined both words in their pure form, unrelated to Orbis, I'm sure I'd agree with you. So it's not semantics, sorry to bring you back to reality. Lol, to prove my point, the link you sent me....I completely agree with it's definition of the term "semantic dispute". And besides all that, similarly, it's used in a more general form to be when two parties pretty much same the same thing, with different words. In this case, we are saying 100% opposite of what you are trying to claim. You've heard people say, "Oh it's just semantics, we basically agree". We do not basically agree and it's silly to even try to suggest that as you are doing. I never thought we'd have to have an English lesson from the wiki/urban dictionary fanboys. Jokes on me for responding to your post when you are just going to resort to name calling though. So +1 for you, well done.

lol, awesome

Someones got his google bookmarked! Lol, you still think you understand how that word is used. You are persistent bro. tom(ai)to tom(aw)to - aggressive defensive. See the difference? Let it go man.

I can already tell this thread will be golden. It's not semantics and maybe you don't even know what that word means or the context it's used in. If some UPN/DEIC members would face reality then we could move on to something more interesting. What's funny about it is that I don't really have a problem with aggressive actions, but clearly you guys are sensitive to the issue for some reason.

And then lie about it being your hand vs. a girl?

Just gotta quote this before he edits it.

So why did you even bother lying about the two UPN who jumped the gun? Integrity is complete #*@&*@#! Congrats on making EoS look completely inept for attacking TAC.

You don't want 100% of us to be ruthless capitalists?

Kinda agree with you. But stealing land in battle would be fun, but not realistic. Unless you have a really really big jar.

The bolded part is my feelings as well, that's why I'm not sure why you guys are trying to act like EoS weren't the aggressors.

I do like the new spy odds for destruction. I looked up Adama with 5 spies to my 3 and it's pretty hard to destroy his ships and costly to even try. I like it. In SpeedRound it was mega easy to spy and cheap.

It does, lol. Just don't sell too soon.

Ahh, gotcha.

Might be handy to have seniority info in the alliance membership view and in the nation view as well. Similar to how (That terrible game that is totally irrelevant and I shouldn't be bringing it up anyways) does it (can I say (That terrible game that is totally irrelevant and I shouldn't be bringing it up anyways) in here, if not delete that). It really makes tracking membership easier. And you could do a lot of things off that seniority info, like tax rates, bonuses issued by the alliance leadership if they wanted to (say no taxes for new members). Things that reward seniority and loyalty that can be done easily and/or automatically. This might be too much, but even to create a game bonus to recruitment, that alliance gets a game bonus for x number of new nations it gets or new nations it brings into the game, etc. Maybe there is already a referral bonus though? Lots of things can be done from seniority information. Thoughts?

This. It's not a big deal, just own it boys. Aurum Lumens was a UPN member too when he attacked TAC and just reapplied after he was booted, lol. I'm put a lot of money on him rejoining UPN at some point in the future pre/post-war.

I think 1:2 is good, buy in 500 chunks. Watch your disease rate and do pre-income and post-income checks to see how much it benefited you. Then repeat on other cities if you like the results.

And yet here we sit, EoS attacking TAC. And UPN oA chaining in. Sorry, but I don't like pre-emption reason. "Oh they WERE going to attack us though!!!11!!!11!!". It's not defensive to pre-empt someone. It's purely aggressive. We attack people we don't like, that's fine. Just own it like a man and admit that EoS bit off more than it can chew and now needs UPN/VoC to clean up it's mess. You all should've just attacked together. I've seen alliances, similar to how you are trying to spin this, play the defensive card over and over again, when you are just blatant aggressors. It's not a big deal, but that's what it is.

This. Why do we even play if not to nerdgasm over stuff like this?

I hope you know this really makes you look bad. It doesn't make you look like you are a truth-teller, it only makes you look scummy.

Welcome back. It's a lot more balanced now and Sheepy's made some nice improvements.

Anyone want to argue commerce is better than resource production now?

This made me laugh for a few reasons.
