Hmm? Did you just quote something zygo said as me? I donno man.

Unless the implication is that red are bullies lol

La imaginary familia.

Thats depressing.

You right, you right.

When i grow up I wanna be just like you.

Yeah LB. Sorry. Next set work harder to get on people's fluff list hahaha.

Hahaha. Scode should stay dead too. Its better for everyone lol

Maybe so, but topfeeding a war clan is simply asking to die. No two ways about it. War clans always have and will continue to kill topfeeders from any unpacted clan. This isnt unusual nor should it have been not suspected. Perhaps if it were a newb, i would understand the surprise. But apparently it was the only non-newb in their tag and he should have expected a response. Especially from elders.

For the record, rage is just policing for the war. They are not involved. They'd probably police too for you if you wanted that. Just ask.

I actually called Sui out for stealing tech. He would admit it if it were him. Believe me, it wasn't. Dont forget. Time rounds UP in this game. And speculating it was us only further points out the bad blood between us caused by last set, because it was not. In specifically my case, I had about 3 failed spy ops from #102 seconds before 2 tech steals and then prompty a failed market spy and we have matching nw changes. It really doesnt get a whole lot more obvious. And nw changes seem to line up on damn near every tech steal this set to a couple laf members. Its isolated within your clan but it is happening.

As for the signature, I was hoping someone would catch the irony in what i was saying. Because I was a head of a small clan that wasnt that old, I did topfeed a much larger LaF, and prompty got ran off the server for it. Rather than farming the absolute fluff out of RED for sets to come and running them off the server, it seems fair to kill them once as a warning as to what happens when you topfeed a war clan. If they are indeed "learning the game," then call that a lesson learned. This is what happens when you decide to topfeed. And if you do it again, you will die again. History has proven that both sides of this war will beat a topfeeder down. Dont try to bs and say anything contrary. If he had topfed laf instead of elders, theres no way youd me standing up for him

Also, to red.

Dont hit me. Kay? If you wanna be a baby clan and get started in this game, chances are, one of the largest war clan's land is off limits to you. Have some common sense. Especially a country with 3k acres and 2m nw on you. Thats just a topfeed. So you topfed a top clan and thought you'd live? Not to mention a warclan? Cmon dude. Try again next set.

I wasnt gonna respond after posting but its bonus time.

First thing first. If i were the president of the largest clan on this server, i would keep icn in my handle. And i hope randy keeps MD in his. Thats called pride. I'm not shy about wearing the badge of a clan that fought the cheaters of this game for years. And i know everyone likes to say "everyone cheated back then," but you know what? I didnt. Link didnt. Dissi didnt. And i take some serious pride in that fact. I will hold down the fact that we fought rd over a year over that. Thats my badge. And if you dont know why i wear it, you're oblivious to what happened in this game.

Second thing is this. We did deserve to get hit last set. I think that was obvious. And i think even certain laf members ought to have realized that the way you went about doing it only served to further create tension rather than settling the dispute. You must realize that. People who love this game saw HOW what you did WORKED. But it didnt settle a thing. It just made the angry angrier. There was no conclusion until mid-server war and frankly the whole thing was a mess. Laf hated elders more and elders hated laf more. Thats all that was achieved. No respect either way. Thats a horrible decision for a netting clan to make against a war clan. There was already a fire, but last set only created an inferno. We all knew what was coming from md unless we werent paying attention. There was a serious chance for mutual respect. But the flames were cranked up instead.

But we could have let it go.

I just counted from the beginning of the set. There are 48 failed laf ops/tech steals against elders before the fs. Granted 8 were for a retal and ill even warrant excuses for dozens of the others. But doesnt that number seem high to you? Like maybe too much for a netting clan? Like....thats JUST FAILS. Laf spent (likely) HUNDREDS of turns on ops against us. I mean jeez. Quit asking for it if you want to act like you dont want it.

Signed, Derrick
Head of making this post and additionally the post that started this thread because we thought someone might actually want to hear the rationale of hitting instead of argueing like 40 year old suburban women about the pesiticide their man uses.

...that someone made a stupid decision to steal our tech. Yall couldnt just let it go, eh? Perhaps if you didn't steal our tech, you'd not have to deal with this. It happened too many times on too many days LaF. And it wasnt one of our fdps. That should be fairly obvious.

We thought long and hard about how to respond to this theivery, considering rumor had it that you would ab fs us again next set if we hit you. In our opinion, that means LaF will never net again and we will always have a target. Call that win/win for us. Since your hack allies were gonna come in anyway, we decided to include them.

Laf, RED, OMA.....

Time to die.

Yo LB. It was a pleasure warring with you too. Thanks for the shout out. It was crazy relaying all those chats haha. I was joking just yesterday about the times my frustrations of a lack of social life came thru in various chats haha.

I feel exactly like you. It was a great experience. Glad to have been a part of it. Also, i still owe Andy FA. Tell him i havent forgotten.

Yeah. Hexchat for pc here.

Yeah. I don't care either. Boners!

.

Bonus

Nice.

Don't forget my 'Attack Again' button. I donno what I'd without it...

Really, it looks light and easy. I digs very much. Good work!

Duque was a super good warleader. Maybe best ever. Thats 1 man's opinion though. Learned a lot from that guy.

He eventually quit warring and netted in ICN. So there were at least 4 members....

You #31 arsenal? If so, please stop being a 19m raw break if you want defends. Gonna need you to drop closer to like 10 or 12. Haha. Tav gets fed by staying around 8. 4 days left. Lets see those nw drops! Haha.

Suncrusher gets it. Hes like 9m raw. I just know better haha.

Tav,

A bit of insight I was unaware of....

That sol came to you before the set. I had assumed incorrectly that you guys worked something out during the laf/sofelders war. It looked mighty suspicious when 1/3 of SOL's tag went over in the final week before the FS. I was sure that's when you struck the deal, and that's specifically what made you look so bad imo.

With sofelders being at war, and not just any style, but one that sets back the production of very young countries, your only viable targets essentially eliminated themselves, especially if SOL and yall had already agreed not to hit each other.

You guys must have been looking at the server like wow. This is really going to suck for them. Hahaha.

Shout outs to Iggy and Gains for pushing thru a long brutal war. Also shout outs to monsters and lcn for being probably the most active pieces to the server war puzzle.

I know, for my sake, that my being in every warchat on the server has been a thin exhausting line. Everyday people ask for me to be kicked from every chat I'm in aside from my home base haha. But watching the effect of those feeds was impressive. 8 clans hitting a single target at once. Full chats of countries not over 4m nw taking down 30m nw countries. It doesnt remind me too much of TIL because the pacts were a lot deeper, but it does remind me of the coalition wars. The amount of fluff the server has put aside to even allow me to relay is impressive.

I had a blast guys. Even when I was just trying to troll Randy and getting trolled in return, I was having a great time. Good show, mostly by the server for having seemingly an unattainable goal by the time we came together, and damn near riding that lemming train home.

Also, suncrusher. You were to be last. Always were. Sorry we avoided the chance to let you wall one last time. Tav will just have to do it for you lol.

Yeah. I still think you're referring to the netsplit (or whatever) right before the run on 280. I remember it disticly.

Something like 5-7 members got dropped for well under a minute suring final sets. Some auto-rejoined instantly with their alternate nicks, some came back after a couple mins, and others still stayed gone.

It affected members from both sides of the world but seemed to only affect about 1/4. Either way it wasn't hardcore enough to slow the sets for the kr down at all.

Users who are at all familiar with irc should have not lost their highlights at all. Teach 280 to set up auto-rejoin and get off mibbit. Anyone with an actual irc client on their device was back in chat instantly.

In any case, I'd like to see LaF try to run a killrun while the server is being DDoS'd. That fluff would be a mess haha.

Lol.

Dudes are on the same server though. Anyone in LCN, omega, imag or any other tag will tell you laf warchat is on earthempires as well. If the irc server were ddos'd during a laf killrun, the kill would become a clusterfluff. Haha

Stump

Must be talking about that network split earlier...

What kills were you blinded for?

Did you ddos empires when it saved 31?

I havent seen any downtimes today other than the network split that lasted about 5 seconds right before the killrun on 280. But those people were back in chat for 10 minutes before the run started.

I donno why they would ddos the empires irc server though. They need it to run warchats lol.

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-far bettah
Run run run, Run run awaaaaaay
Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhhhhhhhhhh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah!

Those last few days are a few weeks.

Lol.

U ready?

Just try to have fun...

Easiest way not to get trolled. Dont put yourself in that position.

I guess when our members said they wanted to play in the MD reunion set, and we gladly told them to have fun fully knowing we'd probably get targeted, we messed up.

We should have been fluffty control freaks to those members....

Then maybe we could get them to self-delete instead of dealing with our drama.

fluff.

Thats honestly the part i don't get. Must be a superiority complex or just being controlling people. Either way, not in the name of good fun.

....maybe it's just being anti-fun.

People wonder why the game is dying while they systematically fluff on every fun part.

Derp.

^yup

Yeah. Too bad its a crime to have fun the way you want to in a war that is already over.

W/e

Agreed.

It should have just been a fun set but it became a discussion of morals and integrity and fluff. Its fluffing stupid.

Anyway, good luck to you Donny. Hope the drama didnt ruin the game for you for good.

So youre going to speak about what you expect from your guys while accepting people in your tag who are known to be violating your internal rules to enter your tag?

Interesting paradox

Perhaps if you didnt comprimise on your own purported values, this wouldn't have happened. Congrats. Now this set is ruined for one of your and our favorite members and a good member of the game.

fluffing lame.

Ugh. The rhetoric has no taste. I hate this set. Unfortunately MD had to make a political situation instead of just going for it.

If no one agrees with changing tags then why did sol change tags and get left out of the war.

Guess its cool for you to do it to everyone else but not cool when people do it to you?

I think everyone just needs to try to have fun with this. Superfly has been in like 4 tags this set. Both sides have members jumping all over hell.

Theres still about a dozen more people that tag jumped to MD than have tag jumped out of it. Yall should quit crying about it. Seriously. Try to make what youve started fun instead of getting salty. I would appreciate it.

Same

Hey mav, wanna have a joint kill run on laf? They suggested it. I'm down.

You said creamed.

Lol.

Btw. If we do have a joint kill run with md ill let you know. So far they just keep sniping our killz.

We snipe their killz too....

fluffin cherry pickers

Tigers fan here. Looking like another injury filled year for the old fluffs. Already beating down cleveland conpared to last year. Cleveland starting pitching is last in the league. Kluber lost velocity maybe to being over worked down the stretch last year and Bauer and Salazar look terrible. Dont know whats up with them

The red sox look lost without papi

Buxtons new swing might be working

The braves still suck but they suck less. Same as the phils. That division is just too nasty.

Bryce Harper is in a league of his own.

Is king felix getting old?

Yeah, when MD FS's the server we will officially be calling our allies in for a kamikaze mission. Haha

Well this is just adorable.

Nah I seem to remember it always being the way I said haha.

I anticipate a victory regardless of all other stats.

I agree with Suicidal. War has always been determined by the total number of originals killed.

Yeah. Hugs comment was spot on.

Statistically they have a lot of abs and we have a lot of kills. They have some kills and we have some abs. Early wars suck. Just gonna be whoever grinds the longest....

...and we grind with corpses.

Yeah, but you can limit your fluff to your clan. Earth has always forced you to interact with the entire server.

Same to you for:

llarr, we miss you dd, chewbacca, me fail english thats unpossable, oldtimer, this one is for dd, unknown, phx, milk ocean, sweet cheese, the doomed dimension, cobra empire, the cloaked since 1998, mutually agreed destruction and I am groot.

P.s. my list is longer.

But yes, in this game, the killing aspect has been and will always be sort of frustrating and hilarious.

If someone came up to me and said, "hey! Wanna play this game? The goal is to build the largest country possible over a period of months and that part isnt super fun or interactive, just math and a lot of work. Then if someone decides they don't like you they can completely destroy you in a matter of seconds." I donno. I probably wouldnt start playing.

That said, that's completely the entire reason people like me still come back to it and play. I disagree that it isn't unique. It's very unique for a clan like LaF to basically get wiped from the leaderboards last set by a single member. Ive never played another game with such a fragile standing where even the individual relationships you personally build with even individual members can make a huge impact on your entire clan's quarter of a year or more.

Maki and i have never been in a clan together and never did FA at the same time. Yet I would consider him at least an acquaintance of mine. We've talked for years. The way this game is almost pushed that on me. And I sit in chat now talking to dp and holocaust as they so rudely put me to rest.

I'm here because the social aspects of earth have, and will always, surpassed the social aspects of other gaming. And all that makes earth fun is the people you play it with, not the country itself.

I was reading a bio on Mehul the other day. All about the games he invented and his coffee shop and whatnot. Earth was basically a footnote. Actually listed something like "Mehul also had a few less successful games such as Earth 2025" haha.
