Seeing as how grabbing is going back and forth between tags (good stuff!) We would like to remind Earth of SOLs retal policy which is based on alliance wide escalating retals!




Alliance-wide Non Relation Retals

If multiple countries from a single alliance hit the same SOL country the following rules will apply.

- Two Attacks on the same SOL country by members of the same alliance in 72 Hours - 3 retals (1:1 on the first offender, and 2:1 on the second).
- Three Attacks on the same SOL country by members of the same alliance in 72 hours - 6 retals (1:1 on the first, 2:1 on the second, and 3:1 on the third hit).
- Four or more attacks on the same SOL country by members of the same alliance in 72 hours - Choice of Retals, Farming, or Killing the offending country(s) after FR notification.

Note that both a single country hitting multiple SOL countries and multiple countries hitting a single SOL country will result in escalating retals.

I reject this policy and substitute my own!

Also, I was told that your escalation policy also applied to two different countries from tag a that hit two different countries in tag b, not just the same country.

Was that accurate? :p

3 retals were made on #343
1 for the first hit:
Aug 17/10 4:05:43 AM PS Nothing rhymes with Whorement (#343) (LaF) bayou (#228) (SOL) 375 A (+331 A)
and 2 for the second hit:
Aug 18/10 4:06:09 AM PS Nothing rhymes with Whorement (#343) (LaF) True SOLdier NLS (#249) (SOL) 497 A (+298 A)

which is in accordance with our retal policy.

Thats just 2 hits on sol, not the same sol country which is not covered in what you posted. And since I doubt there is a pact considering there are hits at all, then I would assume that retals on hits on 2 different countries would each be 1:1 ;)

As The Omega Minister of Foreign Affairs, I hereby endorse this system of retals for non-relation hits. With the provision that untaggeds/spam taggeds should tag up because we take special license with untaggeds/spam taggeds. Basically we follow 1:1 escalating retals for non-relation alliances, but in exceptional circumstances will seek to recover our land.

I don't know why you're being an idiot, dagga...

1) a single LaF country never hit more than 1 SoL player per 24h
2) multiple LaF countries never hit the same player. No SoL country has been hit more than once all set by LaF, to my knowledge, which seems to be SIGNIFICANTLY more knowledge than the sum of SoL's knowledge at this point.

none of these terms apply to ANY of the hits, so why you post this and claim is relevant is beyond me. It's like if I posted a new LaF policy that says "all 4-taps will be retalled with 28 retals!" but you only single tapped me.... It's all fine and good, but keep in mind that it's not actually relevant to ingame issues :p

look at the hits on SoL, now look at Maki's post... no terms were violated, should be 1:1 on each hit by the policies you have posted/have on your site.

Work on the reading, re-learn trolling skills, and maybe TRY to be a nice person, because you are just acting like a piece of fluff right now for the attitude you bring to every single one of you posts, whether it's about me or not.

Did your girlfriend leave you for your best friend or something? Are you in some kind of shame spiral? Do you have underlying depression issues? Is there something we should be doing to help you as a community? You seem like a tortured soul, based on the negative attitude you bring to these forums. This isn't just in regard to me, it's an attitude that has gotten progressively more grumpy and hateful over the years.

I worry for you, dagga, because you do not seem like a happy human being. I haven't seen you dance or spin in years... just push the hate :p

ya, well I think the bottom line that I was aiming for is that even if people were to accept these terms as is, they do not apply to any current ingame issues that I am aware of :p

if it's just a matter of maki posting the wrong policy, that's fine... but I don't see why there is a need to flame over it when nothing has been done which would activate those terms....

the policy doesn't talk at all about hitting DIFFERENT countries.

only the SAME countries. It says that like 5 times in maki's post :p
No SoL country was hit more than once, thus, this policy is not relevant regardless.

That has been my point all thread.... this policy is not relevant to any hits that have been made on SoL all set, to my knowledge.

also, I'm just looking for CLARITY on this policy... because SoL is posting one thing as policy, and then flaming about something different, it seems :p

that has been my point all thread :p

I expect some level of incoherence, but it's pretty easy to use #343 as an example of how this policy DOES NOT apply. Other pieces of policy may apply, but the terms as posted by makinso do NOT apply at all, and I don't believe they are relevant at all to any hits made on SoL all set :p

So I'm at a loss as to why one rather irrelevant piece of SoL's retal policy was posted instead of something more relevant to actual ingame issues :p
Or why the whole of the policy wasn't posted...

Alicia is right of course, our policy applied to hitting more than once in 24hrs. At any rate, we have frequently and still frequently take only minimum retals against friends. Not that we have to, but it's a friendly thing to do. Enough to get the message across that LGing us is just bad gaming, but not so much so that it's ridiculous.

Pang, maybe try to re-read maki's 1st post, this sentence is there and #343 hit multiple SOL countries twice in 72 hours so 3 retals (escalating retal) are done. Now #321 (LaF) RoR mmm
