Phoenyx Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) So, Global War 16 is over, but the reasons that brought it about are far from settled. Quack continues to insist that they were going to be attacked and most of the rest of the game insists that no, that wasn't going to happen, there were plans to counter Quack should they attack another sphere, but that was all. This is a theme that was brought up to some extent in the Benfro's peace treaty thread: The thread has since died down, but I think it's worth bringing that one point up. Time and again, many on the non Quack side have said that there was no plan to attack Quack first. I have said look, you want to settle what really happened, go to the information sources- Boyce, who made the prediction that tCW, HM and Swamp would attack Quack in December or January and Ronny's HM leader making his ambiguous statement about Swamp wanting to "counter Quack's growth", which led to Ronny interpreting it to mean that Swamp wanted to hit Quack first. Instead, as I think often happens when someone tells 1 or more people a truth that they really don't want to hear, they've attacked me in the forums and also in game (to this day- a peace treaty can't really hold back people who -really- want to attack, they'll just leave their Alliances temporarily). This is certainly something they can do. However, this way of dealing with things is kind of like an ostrich with its head in the sand. Just because Quack refuses to acknowledge the problems in its theories doesn't mean those problems will go away.

SleepingNinja Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 What I've learned is Phoenyx gets especially loud right after he's been attacked. It's an ongoing trend, and apparently works weather he's the aggressor or defender. Guess I did learn something. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than the first 2 wars I got into on behalf of my first Alliance as part of the Global War, I've never actually attacked first. Aggressive spy ops do count as a first strike even if they are not an official declaration of war. 1 minute ago, Golden Pope said: You caught wind of a plot to attack you so you decided to start the war on your terms?

The only thing I did is made the war between us official. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Golden Pope Posted December 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) Phoenyx I'm having a hard time believing your story because Sir Scarfalot adamantly denies any plans of attacking you. Those spy ops were just paperless defensive agreements. I believe him because based on his conversations with me he seems very trustworthy. He clearly has no possible ulterior motive nor does he have anything to gain by lying to me.

However, I think in the end it's just one more example of the difference between Quack and the forces that went against Quack in GW16. Scarf attacked me simply because of things that I've said. All I did was counter his attacks. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isjaki Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Many don't want to hear you not because of you ex🅱️osing the illuminati, or something, many people don't want to hear you the same way I wouldn't want to hear a child crying next to me on a long plane journey. It's irritating. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
