You forgot the part where you ghost into sanctuary to hide from Rosewater. 

Our last "Hail Mary". Members on the MMR 3/0/5/1 that physically can't fight will remain in Black Skies. However since Nexus just hit anyone that was within range regardless of MMR then it's clear that this desperate move didn't work.

If I remember correctly the treaty stated Black Skies had to stay on 3/05/1 correct? That would include all members. So given that any of your members went above that is a direct violation of the surrender? Innit? One thing to learn is that it's very hard to negotiate with macros when you have zero leverage to bring to the table. This was inevitable and you know it. Running from it is very dishonorable.

Everyone is acting like we were trying to be sneaky about it. Our moves were sent straight to RON and everyone could see exactly what we were doing. Working within Sanctuary and assisting them where we can was probably going to happen regardless. It's just since Nexus/Bollywood hit us it's "ghosting" rather than reinforcements.

After being pulled into the Hollywood/Bollywood war

Didn't you post a RoH? If you just countered CTO rather than made a forum post you wouldn't have been "dragged in"

You probably would have been fine if you negotiated the treaty before you armed up

Reinforcements would be if you stayed in the same alliance, so joining sanctuary is ghosting. So if anything you've now put a bigger target on sanctuary's back more than anything because it's very likely Rosewater will follow you to sanctuary. So now you have only made the demise of the whole bloc faster

imma be brutally honest here and probably earn myself some downvotes: even if there was some better communication, ppl love to hate on BS so much that they'd probably hit them and not care regardless. That and CTO will probably hit every organism that breathes at this point when they can't find ppl to statpad off of in the global.

I do think that a lot of issues that befall BS originate from some mixture of unfounded pride and defeatism translating into self-fulfilling prophecy, and that their choice of allies is, let's just say... questionable, but I will at the least not hesitate to give props that they are at least willing to defend their allies, which most alliances honestly cannot say.

Most alliances aren't willing to defend their allies? What? This is news to me. 


Also it's not like people "love to hate on BS" without reason. There's a reason BS is not liked. With most alliances they do FA with they are extremely difficult to deal with and in most cases illogical in their FA.

Sorry, misspoke. Most alliances at that range are not willing to help their allies. tO being slow with CC, all of Johnsons, most of Holy Sea, CoA with Alpha/Polaris, etc. Plus plenty of alliances that leave allies to deal with their own wars and so on, even more so when they know they'd take a lot of damages or lose.

This is true, but

-Noobs who have never dealt with BS before like to bandwagon on hate and blow it way out of proportion to look cool or something, idk

-By their own admission CTO hit BS initially because they forgot BS got kicked out by TLE, so this never should've happened in the first place

-idk why there needs to be a new negotiated agreement when allowing them to defend their allies would take like five seconds and two Discord messages

Then again I don't do FA either so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Congratulations on posting 2 sentences out of an entire conversation to give something out of context. I guess you're no longer new to the game.
