Ashland Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) The point is, by posting that you're being spied on; it feeds the trolls and gets other trolls to say "Ha, let me go spy those guys!" That was certainly a risk that we weighed. Ironically enough, incidents have decreased since this was posted. Though I suspect that has more to do with the rules changing to make spying less broken.

Ace Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) You mistook my interest as sympathy, really. You offered a million dollar reward, and I wanted to get all the information I could to get to the bottom of it. Understandably, you aren't willing to share much information--but what you have shared just seems exaggerated and vauge. It's true that I think you guys could be handling it much, much better. I don't think offering a reward is the right way to go about things. I think that buying spies, giving the money to rebuild lost units (because really, they don't cost that much), and acting like it doesn't phase you is the best way to deal with an attack of this sort. Your enemy is spending a lot of money, time and effort, and you've only showed them that it's working. I sense heat... and friction... building up... Anyways, my 2 cents would be... only someone rich would be able to pull off those kinds of "expensive" *hint hint* espionage attacks. Someone who holds a economy, has an agenda and has some "political power" to influence the game universe... no normal/newbie nation/alliance would be able to pull this off. I have no IRC/text so called "solid-proof" as you've mentioned, because frankly if these plotters were any smarter they would use something like skype, whatsap, email etc. wouldn't they? (anybody learnt anything from the casus bellis of WWI between TAC and TC?) Again, I have no IRC/text solid-proof. But from logic-deduction I have a list of suspects and reasoning what they are suspects. I have only shared with you the tip-of the iceberg of my Intel... I will share you my full thoughts and analysis... For a price... ofcourse... Just offering my services as a free agent (; Edited December 3, 2014 by Ace Quote ~ " Fighting through the Storm " ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an asking price of 800,000 for this piece of Intel. I am willing to sell this piece of information to anyone. (including any curious richies other than the BoC. Yes-sir, I am neutral.

Ace Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 You already admitted that you don't have any intel, just an opinion. My father taught me at a young age that opinion's are worthless without something to back them up. Short-answer: A felony won't tell a cop they did it. A suspect isn't going to tell the detective they did it. That's why they are called "detectives" because they detect- stuff that makes a suspect suspected. As I said, all I have is "a list of suspects". What you will do with it is up to you. Long-answer: Deductive Reasoning Joshua Schechter Brown University Deductive reasoning is the kind of reasoning in which, roughly, the truth of the input propositions (the premises) logically guarantees the truth of the output proposition (the conclusion), provided that no mistake has been made in the reasoning. The premises may be propositions that the reasoner believes or assumptions that the reasoner is exploring. For example, a reasoner who infers from the beliefs (i) If the room is dark then either the light switch is turned off or the bulb has burned out; (ii) The room is dark; (iii) The light switch is not turned off; Conclusion: (iv) The bulb has burned out; is reasoning deductively. If the three premises are true, the conclusion is guaranteed to be true. Cite: http://www.brown.edu/Departments/Philosophy/onlinepapers/schechter/DeductiveReasoning.pdf --- But then again, I will say again. If that will STILL be your stance, I respect that.

Deduce some stuff about me, lets see if you actually have the skills. Lol Deductive Reasoning isn't mind reading alright xD it takes real effort. So far I've already demonstrated my reasoning from the OP's post and observing the current standings of nations, alliances and relationships between alliances in the PnW universe. If you would read my first post. Honestly I already gave a few *hint hint* away at that post. Ofcourse. Not all definitely. Anyways, my 2 cents would be... only someone rich would be able to pull off those kinds of "expensive" *hint hint* espionage attacks. Someone who holds a economy, has an agenda and has some "political power" to influence the game universe... no normal/newbie nation/alliance would be able to pull this off. I believe I have demonstrated enough of my reasoning skills. The rest of my services is up to the curiosity of the public. PS: And by saying "Deduce some stuff about me" do you mean you want me to deduce if you are a suspect or not? I have an answer. But then again I have also stated. I would not say this in public because I would not want to make any enemies here... I am just offering my services.

That's all stuff that we already know, stuff that you could gather from things we've all said in this thread. Of course the person doing this has an agenda--that's a lot of cash to spend on something worthless. All you've shown is that you can deduce what everyone already knows, and that's absolutely worthless. Quote "They're turning kids into slaves just to make cheaper sneakers.

All you've shown is that you can deduce what everyone already knows, and that's absolutely worthless. I vouch to disagree on the "something worthless" part. Sure everyone in this thread deduced that someone has an "agenda". That's a no-brainer. The real question is... what "exactly" are their agenda? and "why" do they have that agenda? what is the "benefit" for them? I am ready to answer all these questions for anyone willing to make an offer. In addition to my list of suspects I have those reasons/motivations attached to those suspects in my Intel.
