Last reset I was randomly suicided by multiple countries for no reason other than I was probably on for a good finish.

"Randomly suiciding isn't against the rules" I was told.

And look here, suddenly I am purple... for randomly suiciding!

My aim wasn't necessarily rehabilitation. Its just harder to be a pain in the ass when your country is dead.


People killing other people for double tapping is far less of a PITA than randoms suiciding for no reason.

The former, you can avoid by just not being a douche. Your "efforts" aren't really fixing anything.

I've lost count of the number of times I have forgotten to go GDI in express.

It would be great if just before your first grab, you were warned that you were not in GDI and would be forfeiting the opportunity to join.

(As a side note, It got me wondering why you can't join after a grab?)

Hoping I can make this right with reps or the like.

fluff players whining about collusion when they get theirs is about the wankest thing to read on forums. I will call that stuff out all day long.

What I proved is that the news shows you don't really understand actions and consequences. perhaps that guy being farmed has 1 missile and needs to choose from his many assailants which to punish. Personally I'd choose the biggest one. Even picking at random there is a 1 in N chance its you. No conspiracy theory needed.

Thanks for having my back ZPS. Good to know you put more stock into some fluffty rumour mongering from derrick than the 30+ resets I played in LCN back in the day and was clean as a whistle *rolls eyes*.

Clearly ya'll are beyond reason when it comes to nasty ol' ugo and his private profile! So I'm gonna lay this out once and for all, then I think its best I just walk away.

The "if you have nothing to hide" line is incredibly unsophisticated thinking. I'm surprised, as by now I'm thinking that most of you should all be well past high school levels of reasoning.

The people who most loudly clamour for open profiles, are likely to be the very people who will use that information in order to identify people cross server, cross reset. To hold grudges, and to basically become the greifers they so desperately claim to be against.

I am not down for that. I play every reset fresh. It's a new challenge each time. I don't carry grudges over from one reset to another, because it would be easy to just start afresh next reset and build suicide country to blindside the guy from last reset. Quite frankly... *yawn*... Seems like the most tedious waste of time. As a semi decent netter it takes literally zero skill to do that.

Now if I get messed with in any given reset, that is different and the person messing can expect a fight :)

Just to flesh this out with a real world example, I am allies with someone on primary this reset, that happens to be a prominent LaF player on alliance. Now thats not a huge thing in and of itself, but consider the implications in terms of me basically having to trust those guys won't just use that info to screw me over. Quid pro quo and all that. I'm prepared to take that chance though, because I think it's worth demonstrating behaviour that I beleive in.

Lets also talk about the "pick on Ebert" thing in express. I was never down for that. I may have inadvertently kicked it off because I double tapped him one reset - he had low defense, I though why should someone be able to get away with that on a solo server, I had no idea of history, reputation etc I was playing solo and within the mechanics of the game he was a good grab. He killed me I recall... fair enough, thats his play style. I didn't carry any grudge over. Others felt this was unreasonable policy and took it on themselves to take their own measures. That thing blew up. Ironically, I think it made express a more interesting place to play! Ironically his continued use of the same country name performed the same function as having an open profile. It allowed those that carry grudges from reset to reset to carry out their plans. Is any of this making sense to anyone yet? I'm sure I'll be able to hear some cogs turning as you are reading this :p

Further anecdotal evidence against being able to track players cross reset:

I don't have an open profile, but I do play a WWF character on express *every* reset, I'm trivially identifiable. Firstly this means you can go check my history on eestats, and see whether I am a griefer... or a netgainer. The worst I done is multi tap human players with crap defense, that I think I might get away with... ;)

Secondly, you can check how many times those WWF countries were topfed when they stood a chance of doing well. Usually when there were far better grabs to be had out there.... Perhaps thats just coincidence though eh :)

So ya'll do what you want with your profiles. I don't see any need to "prove" to any one of you anything. I just see a huge sense of entitlement, from a bunch of players hell bent on forcing everyone to play their way or the highway. Not able to see the long term consequences of that course of action.

So I will go ahead and play my country the same way I always do, which is netting. If ya'll want to hunt me out and screw up my reset for reasons best only know to you, then I obviously cannot stop you. I'll just point out that doing so makes you the very cancer that you so very loudly and obsequiously denounce.

2018-10-04 12:46:57 CM Land of Intolerance (#33) Nora Lorraine (#51) 632B 16674 C

I'd say you got off lightly from a country called Land of Intolerance :)

Then you are trying make like #81 topfed poor innocent you out of the blue, when in fact you hit them and they retalled?

2018-10-02 04:59:52 PS consectetur adipiscing elit (#81) Nora Lorraine (#51) 1673A (2377A)

So obviously because you bungled your original grab attempt, that makes it fine to retal a retal.... twice!?

2018-10-02 10:09:00 PS Nora Lorraine (#51) consectetur adipiscing elit (#81) 708A (1118A)

Hardly surprising they came at you again:

2018-10-04 12:20:19 PS consectetur adipiscing elit (#81) Nora Lorraine (#51) DH

To which obvs the appropriate response is massive AB's and I feel you on that and applaud your perseverance! but dude lets not pretend it wasn't entirely down to your original bungling of grabs and inability to suck up a retal when you mess up. ;)

LaF has a lot of ex-LCN members. Don't make it about that.


There is some misconception here, and I'm sorry if I've added to that.

I'm saying that because I am ex-LCN and because other ex-LCN were implicated in the the whole spooge thing last reset, that some might jump to conclusions. Certainly did not mean this to be "About LCN". I love playing their over years, and as I understood it our re-union set was the end. I don't think last set had anything to do with the LCN that I played for over the years. They were one of the cleanest, and most upstanding and honourable clans out there. Possibly the only ones that were corrupted by RD and their ilk.

Anyway, I certainly never expected to play again after the reunion, but you know express got me excited about the game, and now here I am back on alliance with a shiny new *Non LCN* country ;) about to step out into the big wide world all over again.

Certainly didn't think that would be happening 4 months ago.

I know for damn sure that you were one of the last talking to your buddies in skywise, namineff and osloos until the very end of the now inactive Facebook chat for LCN. You're one of their best pals. This is an absolute fact.

That said, since many are not netting this set to stop them ruining others' gameplay experience, you can join them this set and show us that you'd like to net by fighting people that I know for sure you are in contact with.

Your call bro


You are right there is a very specific reason. Its staring you in the face, yet you continue to believe it something else. Is this not AT? Have things changed that much that trolls no longer troll trolls here?

Of course I'm pals with them, hadn't spoken to any of them in around 20 years, we hooked back up in FB chat, and it was an absolute blast! Got to know them way better than back in the day, we had fun. As you know though the FB chat is long dead, so you possibly know more about what went on than I do & you could very well be right. Or you could just be doing that whole thing where if you keep shooting eventually people will start to think you are true. You've already done a great number on my handle!

You know what, it's just a game, some smart people around that are much more capable of reading between the lines of AT posts. Of understanding game meta dynamics. (Those wars you keep arranging... I don't like war at best of times, but man they look dull and pointless). I remember when clans were mortal enemies, when there were good guys and bad guys. When people got so enraged that war was a glorious pursuit. In that regard it appears y’all have fluffed alliance server right up. Everyone pacts everyone, nobody ever hurts anyone. When people say the game is dead.... guess what Sherlock, this is what they are talking about. Stagnant. Malaise. Netters net peacefully, with zero def. War clans play fake wrestling, wearing padding and gloves over in the corner. Utopia/Dystopia much?

So yeah I have verbally supported what those guys did, because look at the place now! People are fluffign crusading again! This is the game I remember ... one with real threat & danger, and mystery and subterfuge and all the other meta elements that aren't in the codebase. They are in the hearts and minds of people playing the game. I mean you kinda half do that stuff, but its all so played out. Deny all you like what happened last reset was a tidal shift.

So no I won't be "warring" until I have good reason. I'll be netting. I'll be netting with all the chaos around me, me with the danger and ever present threat of being outed, and attacked and killed by those that have judge, juried and now want to execute me. A bit of adrenaline and excitement. Without that, then the most interesting part of the game would be just scripting up a netgaining strat and running it on the AI server. An interesting optimisation puzzle sure, but not really a game, like this one is (or should be imho).

So, thats how I see it. Your game just got better because of these 'greifers'. They just create the enemy of the server that you all do not want but so desperately need. And I quote:

I do appreciate your desire to be cautious. I hope you can equally appreciate my need for caution given the number of griefers around :)

Wow back for <12 hrs and already I find out how much of a joke this server is.

"wah wah, toxic environment" the server collectively wails... give me a break.

You are threatening to kill me and and/or any tag I am in because you think I had something to do with what went off this reset? Thats utter crap.

I have always been a netter. I don't care for wars or suicide or whatever you want to call it... why you think I sat last set out...!? You aren't the only one that hears rumours!

Ask yourself this very simple question... why would I waste time building up some great country to then go trash it...? I've never got a t10 finish if im going to spend time on this server its cos I think I might get one. I've come back to the game and realise I might now be capable. Are you gonna actively try and screw that up... are you going to "greif" me because I use to be in LCN!?

sounds like some *prime* hypocrisy right there...

This isn't really a casual game. You can play casually, but be honest, are you even playing? The return on investment is exactly negative of how much time you put in. You don't even get shiny digital bits and pretty pixels for your time. It's all erased by the next set. No progression, if anything regression; LCN are fluff netters and got jealous of LaF's superior netting/warring/members/training/history/reproductive organ size and fertility/etc and so now are going to ruin any netting sets, waste the servers time, and try to damage membership counts.

Let's say you spend 59 days try harding it up, putting together a win, and then wankers from LCN ruin it all because their alliance was fluffty and fell apart. Do you think a new player will stick around for this? You can polish a turd all day long, and in the end all you have is fluff on your hands. I can think of no successful game where griefing is allowed.

I could go on and on, but the fact is, the game is a relic of a simpler time and a majority of the remaining player base would instantly turn off anyone new coming to play. If the admins are actually serious in revitalizing the game; the first step would be to permaban these LCN reject griefers to get rid of the stain, and then design and institute a country roll back solution and proper war engagement mechanics to stop this from happening again.


This stuff is really getting fluffy.

So apparently a couple guys from LCN do some suiciding and now suddenly everyone who ever played under LCN is now automatically bad guys and should be permabanned? Why the huge knee jerk reaction. Its entirely disproportionate given the claims of them having done so little.

LCN always had its bad apples - in the reunion set I recall at least one tag jumper. Always been the same in any clan as I recall. I also remember we had to deal with a couple suiciders of our own. I think the reset was a huge success, and amazed out the results because the whole thing was basically a leaderless bunch of guys that hadn't played in years.

Maybe chin-up and crack on...? if you let these guys get to you then they have already "won"...

LaF won't let me play with them... their loss ;p

So in the LCN reunion set I only managed 50k/$150m - had no idea how much the game had changed and thought 50k acres was loads! How wrong I was.

Anyway having gotten acclimatised to bots in express, I'm pretty sure I can pull at least $500m now on alliance (provided that spooge tag doesn't screw me up!)

For those that do not know, I am UgolinoII - long time LCNer (sorry if thats a dirty word now lol) from back in 2025 days. Good to be back!

We could engage in a conversation and the alliance leaders would laugh at us, much like they do at you. We have already seen the typical replies from certain leaders - no point in discussing anything with them. You could also realise that we really don't care what you or anyone else thinks and are laughing at every post you write.

Thanks thus for the laugh Derrick - please keep posting.


Whaaaat? Derrick got something wrong!? It can’t be... ;)

Dude, I would gladly join. As an ex LCN associate, I hardly think I'll be welcomed with open arms given the whole server is convinced that LCN is/was responsible for the recent suiciders.

Again it's not that I think you are playing outside of the norms blah blah blah or breaking the culture down blah blah blah or whatever nonsense I read half of.

It's that I think you are douchebags. And I kill douchebags.


Instead of replying to the substance of what I am saying, you keep posting some non-sequitur of a response, that generally follow set structure of "look how good I am, you didn't do anything good because I desperately need to preserve the fiction in which I am good and important". This then typically tails off to some petty insult or other.

It's giving me the impression that you are confused by the things being discussed. I am sorry, I assumed too much of you.

Not really no. The best netters are generally the best warriors as well, they might not wan't to or care but if they do they are. Vice versa is true as well ofc.


Theres a lot of truth in that but the devil is in the details.

A good netter can build a country that is good for war. A bad netter will always have a worse off country in that respect.

However that same country might perform differently in the hands of someone good at warring. Vice-versa someone who is good at warring might be able to make up for some of the shortfalls of not having netted as well prior to the FS/CS.

My point was that, at a high level. The mechanics are second nature, and it is the meta that is important. In warring / netting that meta is different. The greatest players may understand both. That's not the majority though & I certainly don't include myself. I just recognoise that this phenomena exists... after all thats the first step to improvement :)

Anyway, my message is not aimed at people like you, I don't think you need my mansplaining things ;p
