You expect me to make a deal with a lone wolf who thinks he’s playing LaLa Land PBM just because you happen to be in possession of 3024 ~ ? This sounds like the type of thing that adds the “complete” to “idiot”.

Ouch that hurt coming from someone of your prowess or is it incompetence.
Nice job you’ve done working with others in this game also. Anyway you have made the CL happy.
I’m just out to seek Souless Science myself. The nation of the BS intends to reinvent the Tesla Death Ray (as in the scientist, not the 80’s band of whom Russ was no doubt a huge fan!)
I just need a target to turn into my Tunguska! (Bonus points if you can claim to understand this reference, not a sense of intellectual superiority mind you, just the fact that I am Google crazy!!)
ohhh…ooops, I might be in the wrong game, where are my robotic death legions damn it???
<<Seriously, I look forward to the late game character assault. It will be fun. 20 turns of boring followed by 3 turns of gold thefts… Ohhhh, I’m shaking.>>
*Ooooh, tee hee, your sarcastic fatalism sets me all to jitters! It’s truly an honor to actually post messages on the same forum as the Man who will Save the Game. Fletch, Celebion, Stewie, Ben, and Deevel all agree, I’m sure.
While some DS wish to attack you (which would please you no doubt), I’m of the mind that you should be ignored for the remainder of this game afterwhich we can all request that Clint not put us in any games with you (afterall, I couldn’t shoulder the burden of watching your selfless act of sacrifice more than once.) However, since you will be attacking a QA settlement this turn I suppose I can overlook anything “negative” that my team does to you so long as it is “punishment” and not “revenge”. Revenge is for children and the immature.
We’re Dark Servants. We cannot allow acts of aggression against our holdings to go unpunished. Just ask the FP.

Dude, the Dun is a Neutral and can prattle on and on as he sees fit. The only one’s he screwed were the FP, and singularly, me as he fled to his private PRS hell just in time to not send me the economic aid he promised and I planned on, resulting in numerous and costly “corrections” that have taken their toll beyond the turn in question.
My point, as you were too cowardly to address in either the public OR private forum, is that for one as experienced as your smug and boorish behaviour suggests, you know that when playing an “open” game as an “allegiance” nation, the masses you seem to denigrate DO have some expectations of you.
You DO have more to do. Growing up would be a start. But I hold precious little hope in that from what I’ve seen.

Good Gaming,

Have it all figured out do you. Perhpas you move back to 1650 where you know a little more about the game. The FK’s job in 2950 is to keep troops off the WK capital. No troops have made 3124.
Once again it seems you comment on stuff that you know little about though it seems to be par for the course.

Place in Siberia where a comet/asteroid is believed to have exploded in the atmosphere. 1908 I think.
The resulting dust in the air made it possible to play tennis in England at midnight for the entire summer. Must have been pretty eerie.
Hey guys- this thread is getting a little too personal methinks. Jabs at playing style is one thing… but jabs at the person behind the nation? Is is productive? Is it more fun than the game?
It’s a game.
Right?
Macman
PS: That said, you all suck. I would have won this game by now. Your style is awful, you smell bad and your momma dresses you funny. Just the facts.

Um, I was commenting on yourself, NOT the Fire King. I couldn’t care less about the FK. What am I doing? Sparring with one who can’t even read…??? Sorry Macman, I’ll go now…

The ones that know the least proclaim the most/loudest or so it would seem. Well it least my early assessment of you was correct. I had always thought you were a Dw/E (extra credit for anyone that gets this one too) from the drivel you posted on the message boards. However for a bit I thought you could be an OK person. Now I think my original assessment was spot on.
Anyway enough of this personal stuff (it serves little purpose) and you are of little significance in this game or otherwise.
Ren, the RIF deprived and coveter of NGorndian intellect and expertise.

[b]Look at all the anger and hate the PRS has created.
According to Bill and the original rules, this is EXACTLY what the VP system was intended to do.
This is why I was SOOOOOO glad then Clint ignored the VPs.
Then, along come some college kids that think they are hot ****. They want a way to rub it in other’s faces just how good they are. The get Clint to impose a PRS on un-wanting player base.
Suddenly, VPS are meaningful again, and the anger and hate are back.
Yeah, PRS is great. Old timers that remember the days of VPs are all ignorant assholes. What ever. [/b]
Actually I agree with you about the PRS not being a good thing, not that it will change anything in this game.
I doubt Clint imposed it on an un-wanting player base though.
<<Look at all the anger and hate the PRS has created. >>
You created the anger. The feelings aimed at you have nothing to do with the PRS. I don’t care about the PRS. I think it can be interesting particularly the grudge team ratings and the player vote categories. VC conditions only makes up a small part of the system. You, as the “all knowing and wise one” seem to believe that the rest of the community cannot distinguish which ratings actually mean something and which are bunk. Yes, there are some shortsighted people out there who will fall into the trap. Look at the response they will get. You got it firsthand. It’s an interesting test of character and it is one that will allow us to see people for what they are. Why, then, can’t you have a little faith in us, the rest of the community, and stop trying to “prove” that PRS is bad by damaging the game you wish to save? We’ve been through all this already and here you are again singing the same song. Get over it and move on! It’s just a game. Be someone else’s savior in something that actually has meaning.
While you’re at it, go Free, fight us tooth and nail, and make the game interesting. Maybe it’s not too late to earn some votes for best team player and best enemy since you’re (allegedly) so concerned about ratings.
Let’s just drop the PRS discussion from this thread. I am tired of rehashing the same discussion. Clint made the decision - bust on him, live with it, or leave.
As for the Duns position, it did hurt us severely, but as much as the Khand or Easterlings? Or the WW? Equals in my view. You are either with us, against us, or you just don’t matter.
If that equates to Russ telling the Duns to go free, hey, I’m for it. While you are at it Russ, tell the WW to go free, fight the DS tooth and nail, and make the game interesting.
