As the black eyed peas would say "I gotta feeling" things will be a little different in the top next age

You say I have a bad memory, name the last time a top kd had their banks hit multiple times in end of war? Been at it for like 7 years straight now.
I don't know if it was the last time (doubt it) but Emeriti has. Emeriti has been plunder semi waved into post war. We also didn't get any offers of resources or anything else back and they also refused to cf us. I believe Pyro also has been hit in post war? I've heard from a number of others who also have but my memory isn't the greatest either when it comes to such minor things.
No, but I don't consider BB&Company an alliance either. In terms of these make**** alliances that are formed to combat a single opponent, yes I would absolutely call that 4-some the same kind of alliance. SWEA wanted AMA taken out, urged the other 3 to do it, and they did it fully knowing that it directly benefited SWEA.
Nope, that's not my contention. I said the problem that started all this wasn't that Emeriti **** played, but that they **** played BB and it wouldn't have been a problem if they had ****played someone else, at least as far as BB is concerned. I was asking you or any other person in BB to confirm/deny this.
Just last age persian cat did it and we didn't hit him in his end of war, we fought him when he was out and we lost and said gg.
Doordie -how hard is it to show a screenshot of you sending messages to half my kingdom? Go to your sent messages on your phone and scroll back to the beginning of the age and???
Why do you keep making things up like first saying 5 people and now claiming half your kingdom? Are you afraid that you flatly denying the truth will make you look bad so instead you exaggerate your own rephrasing of the truth to try and make it seem like the truth didn't live up to your exaggeration?
Also, Emeriti didn't hit you into post war either. They wanted to fight you when you were out. Bour hit you being much smaller and no match for you when you trained up. He offered all land plus extra back immediately for a cf. You could have just agreed right away and still warred Emeriti.
Maybe you should stop saying people lie:
In this screenshot, you can see 5 messages to BB before the razes and 1 message right after:

This age is just another proof that since Absalom disbanded, ghetto ****s and cheaters can roam free and do whatever they want to do without proper policing and punishment
This game died the minute Absalom disbanded.
Either we need to bring the Absalom kds back. Or we need to kill this game permanently
Ok Shai, bring absalom back. Go!
BTW Bishop, what is Utopia worth these days? What is the price to buy this garbage game? Its a serious question
I can imagine the game isn't as fun for some of you but many of us are having as much fun as ever.
For the sake of new players I think the woes of the top should be kept in perspective. The rest of us might not play to your level but we police ourselves. Even so I've offered to help with policing prior to committing to an age of pure fun. Simply, I'm not built for enforcement this age, but I did ask.
My intuition tells me the dirty talk is common speech in your circles. That's fine. Just try to define the game boundaries for the doe-eyed visitors. Even older players new to the forums might feel like curling up in a fetal position around here.
To any fresh eyes: Utopia is so fun some players take it very seriously. So what you see is passion and not an actual representation of the joy many of us feel. Carry on.
Looks like flogger suddenly became busy after calling Bour a liar and being proven wrong.
I'd like a full AWAR summary when this does end. Of each kingdom on both sides, gains and losses. Who waving who.
Utopia was on its unfortunate downfall long before ABS disbanded.
Your statement is debatable, some would argue such alliances that used a subterfuge aggressive play style in order to get their kds up in the charts, were part of the reason many left the game.
In that department, none beat ABS in it's wide reach, not even HaLL.
They didn't bypass any notice deals to make arranged wars with any target running from anyone.
This ^^. This is like oh he bumped into me and bruised me, retals by taking out a gun and murdering him. This is essentially the message being sent, forget about fairness it's gone to back to the dirty utopia of more allies more multis = I'm right, as long I win = I'm right.
There has been so many lame plays worse than this recently but not of it has been met with this kind of response. I think more so than this age deeds aabs just wanted use any excuse they can find to punish an abs kd for the ages of powerplaying and used any remote reason to do so even if the actions that they are doing are just proving that aabs has always been that they have been worse than abs in ethics and dirty play.
Frankly I would have wanted BB to beat Emeriti after in a 1v1 fight, now there's no strategy to the game when every one is playing lame. Why dont we we have 0 cf agreements in future so guys can stop being so lame.
I haven't read the forums at all, but now things have quieted down a bit since all of BB seems to be bouncing back into fortified, here goes.

In ~10 days or whatever we've been razed for 53k acres, most of that into our war with Pyro, and are the same size as when we started.
Now, I'm going to go briefly on the record and say that this gb is bull****; BB and their allies are 100% in the wrong. It's not an alliance war, much as asf and flogger might want to talk it up. Flogger's utopian dream is to "win" an "alliance war" against "absalom", but Absalom disbanded long ago. This is just a gb that expanded into a larger conflagration of, well, bull****. Three hundred acres of razes that were repayed with heavy interest and an apology is not an excuse for an age-long (or multi-age, per flogger's threats) gb. You have taken what is literally one of the least ****ty ****plays of recent ages - pyro and bb have each done worse to us in the last 2 ages - and used it as an excuse to further your goals with dirty play.
BB was smart enough to pick an aggressive growth awar setup, and we were dumb/inactive enough to give them the excuse they needed to backstab. Pyro I guess just didn't want to fight us, though why they'd want to enter a war of death rather than just give up a few thousand acres...well, makes no sense. Why bb took the ceasefire in the first place, taking acres under false pretenses, is beyond me though. Any ceasefire that gets forced on you by some stretch of the imagination is no ceasefire at all? You realize that in a war game, every ceasefire following a conflict is forced on one side, right?
I get why jerks and FS are involved; bb has helped you out with your enemies over the past few ages. Smart move to start building your alliance a few ages in advance, all the while claiming that alliances are the death of the game. You probably should have waited another couple ages to get more kingdoms though.
I don't get why WSK and (I have no idea who they are, simians shell or warcry or something) are involved. My best guess is you think you'll get acres from us, or from our friends, but that doesn't seem likely. Ultimately I guess the four of you feel you have a better chance of getting a crown between you if you never have to fight us fairly. Which is probably true.
This thing could go on forever, but, at risk of repeating myself, it is simply bull****. At least when covenant planned their alliance war against absalom they started with a roughly equal number of kingdoms. You just found four kingdoms to raze one, so that you could claim your awar victory (lol), ensure bb was the most recent kingdom to back to back crown (lol), and get the beatdown on "absalom" you've always wanted. Eventually either we'll give up and delete and retire (which I'm told you claim is your goal?), or you'll give up and delete and retire (which i guess, symmetrically, should be our goal; it's what happened the last time bull**** of this magnitude happened, after all). The game loses.
Now is the time to get out, and since you don't like asf's proposal (I wouldn't want to war us either, not with a human setup) here is mine: give us back all the acres you razed from us, just as Bour gave you back the acres he razed from you, with the same level of interest he gave you. Unlike you we won't pretend to accept the ceasefire and then dealbreak you later. We can then eoa ceasefire so you don't have to fight us fairly this age, and you can build your alliance up a little bigger for next time.
I'm going to go back to not reading the forums, so anyone who would like to reply should get in touch with Aquaseafoam or Leshrak.
No.
i actually got hit into eowcf last age by either Chrystal or mike cant remember (they both razed me)....as i explored my banks. One of them cf'ed when they found out it was me, the other i had to go beg Simians to ask their "new" sleepy players to tell him to stop. Got no acres back or even an offer from either kd.....didnt want it, that **** happens i let it go--ish.
Part of the downside of not marrying a utopian is convincing your significant other friday night is utopia night ain't easy. So he sent messages to 3 of my dudes and hit 15 minutes later, and this is you #winning? Awesome. There's about a 15 minute lag between when someone logs off and their star goes away.
That was a hilarious read.
ASF, wouldn't "putting things back to the way they were" include nullifying the CF that BB was coerced into making with Emeriti as a direct result of the razing?
(Btw I'm only finished 1st year law school. not a lawyer yet :p)
Someone can please forward this to dorje: Your assumptions about Jerks are wrong. I suggested to Pendel we consider getting involved, because I thought that sending Bour to raze into eowcf and then lying doing a thirty-thousand-word tap dance to avoid the fallout (which is still going on) was gutless and probably deserved punishment. BB didn't approach us. We weren't even supposed to play in top 50 this age lol. I didn't play the past 2 ages so I can't say much for BB helping us with our enemies, or building an alliance. As far as I know, the last time we had an alliance with BB it ended in what Palem would call a stolen crown.
Your post is ridden with paranoia. Care to offer a reason why you have 4+ kingdoms siding with you as well? Maybe they are all old friends of yours, OR maybe it's because they think you're in the right? Maybe that belief - that one party or another is correct - is what's motivating all parties involved, and it's not some massive conspiracy theory against ABS?
I'll say it again: I think ordering a minion to raze into your enemy's eowcf and then lying about it warrants some kind of punishment beyond just giving some extra land back.
The sad part is the whole thing probably means you guys have gotten away with it before and not gotten caught. How is THAT kind of play good for the game?
I imagine jerks just sided with the side that doesn't spend 100% of the time talking utter bull****. I don't think the "say the same illogical thing the same thing over and over again" play works as well on people you haven't been allied with for 10 years.
Eh, wrong? Our CF expired and moved into notice. They asked for extend, we said we'd want land for an extend or war (we were in each others range). They agreed to war 10 or 11 days later. How is this bypassing a notice deal? We could have hit them 5 days earlier orso if we had not agreed to this deal.
Nice attempt at your typical bull****, but your facts are wrong.
I recieved an email about me adressing this.
I disbanded Simians.
Stop mention Simians unless its talk about last age.
Just quickly gonna say you escaped into conflict with Pyro 1h b4 we could wave you last age. We had been schoolspumping and rebuilt n drafted up for it. You ruined many days prep for us and this sneaky play was the start of you getting a chance to win the age.
I have my reasons to ****play you for **** you done. But this is not my work so leave me out of it and stop adressing Simians. There is no Simians this age.
You realise you asked cj to wave us to dodge us and he did do it. We had nothing to do with Mike and we asked him to not hit anyone all age. Its terrible you mention this because you were the biggest farm in the top and cj saved your ass. Cj even tagged this and it was so true. Typical Persain dirty play. Now stop mention Simians. We disbanded. Thanks
delusional too much? the ONLY kds siding with you being your old friends/allies, does not mean the kds siding with bb must be their allies/friends too.. i have made it clear both to asf & leshrak that we arent part of any alliance.. we have only decided to step in after reading logs of your leadership channel, and we are planning to stay in until emeriti admits sending allies to do their dirty deeds, and agree to withdraw from all crowning attempts by razing down their cows and agreeing to stay below an acre cap..
Ya all are pretty pathetic. Godly is the most pathetic though, acting all saD and **** over a word game. Not even a video game.
What happened to funny Godly.
saD.
