Tywin Lannister Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Just now, Justin076 said: Dominating the extreme whale tier for safety? Im pretty sure that was my point. I understand your logic behind it and the pixel-hugging logic behind it. I'm well aware of alliances and spheres of the past and current seeking domination. However my point is that its not good for the game and is the kind of thing we need to get rid of and have been trying to for like a year? It stagnates the game and helps create a environment non-conducive for stuff to happen. As for your pixel-hugging jab I'll ignore it as I assume your pretty inactive and aren't aware. Everyone wants to dominate. It's just how things are. Every alliance if given the opportunity to form dominance in a tier will go for it, it's that simple. That's how most upper tier alliances have pitched to me in the past their idea for future! And yes, I'm pretty inactive - you got that much right. 1 minute ago, Buorhann said: Various reasons, but it mostly centered around taking a break.

Popular Post Prefontaine Posted November 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 1, 2018 4 hours ago, Sweeeeet Ronny D said: It's nice to know that my alliance of 26 people is the reason the world of Orbis is bad. I assume we are also the ones that kept IQ down for years as well. Justin the difference between what I say and what you say, is that I actually know what the numbers are and what they look like, and you are just making assumptions based off your own biases. Lets be real tho, the reason you don't like us, is because we aren't on your side, if it was Test and CoS on the TKR side, and we were on your side, you would be singing our praises right now, and complaining about the evils of Test and CoS. But this is a warstats thread, so my apologies to Sketchy and that other dude with the stats that say we are doing even better for derailing it. Edit: zues your nation link is broken. I wouldn't allow my alliance to only allies with the bulk of the other top tier nations in the game, because I'm not the cancer that you are. SRD, you've been horrible since your misguided attempts at leading VE's military. You bumbled through your understanding of the war mechanics and damaged your alliances standing so much that you, along with a handful of the other VE gov had to go flee to a micro alliance and pray that everyone ignored you. Thus you were ignored for virtually 3 years of playing sim city. During that three years you hid behind the coat-tails of the games most stifling treaty cluster, and during that time, when the game would have culled you for your sitting out of everything growth becoming a critical mass, you stayed protected. You're not the reason Orbis is bad, just one of the reasons. An alliance leader that (well, you might not actually comprehend) should know when their treaties aren't good for the game. Partisan knew keeping Syndicate treatied to TKR, even in secret, was bad for the game. I knew signing too many treaties when Guardian sat on the world with me in charge was bad and turned down numerous treaties that would have made us unbeatable. Sometimes it's important for players, especially leaders, to take a step back and look at the health of the world their shaping. When you realize that you are part of the problem, you can take steps to fix it. You are right in one regard though, if things were switched people would be singing your praises. Because you would be the one standing against upper tier consolidation. You would be the one trying to break the ties that irresponsible leaders put in place to safe guard themselves at the expense of the game and political intrigue. But that's not that case, as I said, I would not put TEst in that position. Though I can't speak for Ripper, my gut tells me he would tell you something similar about his alliance. However you're not on the right side of things. But by all means, claim these huge difference in numbers, act like it's you against the world. In Papers Please I made similar posts when the real upper tear was close to 3-1 rather than the 8-1ish alliance wide numbers. Your side has the 30+ city advantage, and from 26-30 it's damn near 1-1. Act like it's taking us forever to get to you, when you're side has been steadily dropping each day. We're just steadily chipping away because there's no rush, most of your top guys can't even declare on anyone and have sat warless since the opening round. Maybe that's why you're making all these posts? Your frustrated that you're being chipped down without being able to counter? Hmm. I didn't intend on posting this long of a post, but SRD is either trolling or delusional and I kept finding more to say. To summarize, Yes SRD you are part of the problem, and that's why no one is singing your praises. Stop worrying about what everyone else is doing, and worry about what your alliance is doing, because you can actually fix what problems your own alliance is creating. 1 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avakael Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Pretty thrilled to be doing as much damage as I am, and especially come out net positive, when I've lost half my infra and am explicitly refraining from bieges as per coalition policy to prevent the whales from getting away (unlike certain others on this list...).

Sweeeeet Ronny D Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 That is rich coming from you Pre, the guy that shows up to an alliance, spends all its political capital, and then runs away before it gets rolled... or goes on vaca mode for a year when people finally figure you out and get sick of your shit. So congrats to you for pulling everyone together to hit TKR, and blaming my alliance (one of the few that can obliterate your alliance) for all the evils in the game, you are a much better politician than I will ever be. If my crime is liking to fight with people I can depend on and that are my size, I plead guilty, but don't expect me to apologize for it. My goals as an alliance leader are pretty simple, look out for the well being of my members, give them an environment to succeed in, and defend and help my allies. My goal isn't to win the game or take over the world like some of you, if that was the case, I wouldn't reject over 50 percent of the people that apply to Grumpy, and I would actively go out and wipe out any competition to Grumpy. As for hiding to grow? We skipped one major global war, which was the 2nd one after we formed, besides that we have been in the muck everytime. When we rolled nuke block, we rolled in with Attrition, ate every single one of the over 1000 nukes they had and then called it a day the second they ran out of the ability to fight back. We all cant be like Test, who sits out every war until they know they can win, and then jumps in for easy wins. If that is being dynamic woo baby! I look forward to adopting that post war. You are an opportunist Pre, you always have been you always will be. Now my favorite part of any post, bragging about me! Individual war stats are out and it looks like I am #1 in infra destroyed... 45,000 more infra killed than number 2 on the list, #2 in infra lost, #11 in soldiers killed, #7 in tank kills, #2 in plane kills, and #2 in ship kills, that seems pretty solid! When I get more time I will see how many alliances I have done more infra damage than their entire alliance. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buorhann Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I don't think Pre is necessarily blaming you for all the evils, SRD, I think the idea of the top tier consolidation (Or any really) is what he's trying to get across is a problem for the game. It's just a coincidence that you're targeted given the history between you two and the situation at hand here. I could be entirely wrong on that though, but that's how it's coming off to me. 1 Quote Warrior of Dio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfPCFQfOnLg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He literally says that. If you're gonna textwall at people at least get the basic shit right. He's not wrong in saying that either, and hopefully you can see that. I had a dicussion with a TKR member the other day who just couldn't see that they are indeed responsible for some of that evil. People get so defensive over it. Evil is not a state of alignment one can posess. Evil is a state, like all things, of relativity. Based on that relativity, the only logical conclusion is to accept that you are part of the evil. So am i, so is Pre, so is Buor, so is every clueless micro leader who has no idea why he shouldnt have farms with 800 land, and so is everyone who was not listed. Innocence is a pipe dream, everybody is guilty, and everybody has an execution date. This is yours. Somebody elses comes next. Don't know who, and i don't care. But instead of whining that people think you're evil and have come for your execution, that they're just as bad - no, worse! Just embrace it. Today its you in the chair, tomorrow it's them, and neither of you will be any less guilty when tomorrow comes. And yes, TKR. That means you, too. Nobody is a shining knight in gallant armor, who abides by a (romanticized non historically-accurate) code of chivalry. You are guilty, as is everyone else, just admit it, like everyone else should. And if others haven't yet, so what? Be the first, there's nothing wrong with being first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweeeeet Ronny D Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Of course we had it coming, do you see anyone on our side complaining at all about the complete lack of CBs out there? There is none, because its obvious that this was coming, you generally cant go out and hit every sphere in the game and not eventually have them come together and wack you. The part that is silly is how long it took the rest of the world to get its shit together and make it happen. Side note, I looked at the other side's coalition tonight, and if you guys were organized, you could have taken out 9 of us at update tonight, probably a few more if you wanted to really work for it. So this whole story thread of how our side is overwhelmingly powerful is a bunch of crap. The only thing stopping you guys from some easy domination is your inability to work together and properly coordinate. I do look forward to getting taken out tomorrow tho, it looks like I am up next! 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senatorius Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I haven't seen anybody in Grumpy wanting to avoid this war or upset about being rolled. We are having fun so far( the last stand is always a fun scenario). I don't understand the reasoning that we are ruining everyones fun. Grumpy exists because it is fun to fight with people that communicate ( same reason I think that we enjoy fighting alongside Guardian).With so many alliances in this game you organize a blitz and peeps start talking about how the can't be on at that time etc. We saw it with the blitzes against Guard etc lots of fighters on your side were let down by the guys that weren't logging on or were doing stupid stuff(nuke spamming). I isn't just the size of the nation that gets you entrance into Grumpy but the willingness to coordinate and sacrifice that gets you in. Our friend got attacked and we defended them as best we could. We have had a good fight so far and lots of fun. Who could ask for more from the game? TLDR.... Grumpy is having a blast being destroyed ! No one is jumping out a window because the pixels are destroyed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
