Kind words and fair enough except db is not the route to take.

The kingdoms I lead never deal broke. Your example using kingdoms I didn't lead is not even a deal break. Your example was where a kingdom gave you legit notice but you tried to dodge them by waving sanc, who was half your size, right when your notice with havoc ended. Sanc tried to cf you without even hitting back but of course you refused because you thought it would help you dodge havok. Complain about that all you like, but I was not leading any kingdom involved and none of the kingdoms even deal broke.
As for you, there are plenty of examples of you deal breaking kingdoms without being deal broke by them first. Cr is probably one example as discussed here already. Pyro is another. It seems any time you are put in a no win situation you will either deal break or pull some other stunt.
How im dodge when Sanctuary was aggressor right after post war end? Do you think its normal when YOU know we are prepare for war havoc Sanctuary to start masive rob all our Kingdoms when we didunt gave any indication for go after them? All our Kd was in semy pump mode preparing for war Havoc. Its was ABS scheme for interfere our preparation. If some one is pick on me i have full right to wave him back. Our deal with havoc included no notice in hostile and they gave me notice when both Kds traded hits and ops. Its clear break our deal terms...
Havoc had zero chances in his incoming war against us. Why i need to dodge them when its last KD i need to beat for win age? Its why i really dislike you. You perfect well know this but still giving me stupid PR BS how im dodge farm... ABS did it for stop AMA win age because you had full control in top having 4 from top 5 Kds so don't matter what you do none can help us. Just admit it and don't waste our time with nonsense.
Its why i blame you not less from jdorje because you still defend them.
The most logical sanc dealbreak to me to mention would have been when dorje waved (seasons? sonata?) at EOA because he assumed it was the last age of utopia. I can't think of any examples where ASF-lead kingdoms broke their deals offhand (alliance mates, yes). Monolith...tivoli...err, I forget the kdname.. age 29 maybe?
Oh you know, when you threatened to dealbreak spartans if they made a CF deal with someone you were competing with, so they called your bluff and waved you as you deserved.
Threatening a dealbreak is equivalent to a dealbreak, and leaves you entirely at fault.
Good, call their bluff every time.
If someone threatens to break an agreement, their word is void, and the dealbreak already happened.Quote:
It's better to be dealbroken than to dealbreak.
If I make a deal with someone and then have to constantly worry about them breaking that deal, then their word is literally meaningless and the deal might as well have never existed.
If my company signs a contract to provide a service in exchange for money, and halfway through the other party says 'you know what, on second thought, we're not going to pay you unless you also provide this other service that wasn't even in our original contract', We're going to immediately stop work and call our lawyer. I'm not just going to happily continue providing services with no expectation of being paid.
You don't bluff breaking a contract. That's how you get your ass sued.
Same principle should apply to diplomacy in-game.
Because he posted logs on the forum Francis threatening to dealbreak them within three hours of their wave?Quote:
And how would we be aware of what FS said when Bart doesn't open his mouth about it?
How's that war going though - you know, the one this thread is suppose to be about.
I'm not sure if you know but no kingdom competing for land would suggest giving away so many acres to the number 1 spot. That would be insane.
We had our motivates and we agreed to do this as a Kingdom composed out of 25 women and men.
We knew we'd get destroyed but we also knew that was our chance to actually hurt them as that Kingdom is usually 10-20 milion NW larger then us....
We at Jesters do what we want and are independant as shown in the big server "Alliance war" that took place I think 3 or 4 ages ago...
That's how it looks, we were very land fat on thier land before they declared, they had all the economy and GC in fort so this is really obvious. The pendulum swings.
In harsh times I always advise the team not to look at the Kingdom Page and just complete the objectives.
Wrong. I could get LG to say some dumb **** and use that as a justification to dealbreak CR, but it wouldn't be justified.
That's your problem. The risk is always there, no matter what. It's best to just assume everyone sticks to their deals and deal with it if they don't. This usually works fine
Don't compare a game with reality. You don't shoot someone IRL because they killed you in a game, right?
Threatening to =! doing
Threatening is dumb and as you said yourself, "call their bluff every time", i.e. see if they put words to deeds.
You are so full of crap it's not even funny you owed the Spartans and now are blocking for them. BeachLords and Newbreed had a agreed war. You interfered and got basically double hostile for it. Who came to save you the Spartans did. You had a banner saying Bart make Utopia great again. Yes you are puppets of Barts and clearly blocked for them this age. Also I was informed you told my guys they had to play by your alliance's new rules and not former precedent set in the past. Now you claim there is no alliance, give me a break. Clear blocking move just like Spartans blocked FS last age.
We owe nothing to the Spartans. We made that banner last age for our own reasons and if you don't get irony then tough luck. We are in no alliance.
My Dad always told me that if I had nothing smart to say about a certain topic, it's best to say nothing or I'dmake an idiot out of myself.
You, sir, are an idiot.
you seem to know a lot about what was going on, based on 3 lines of a days long conversation between 2 ppl.. there are plenty lines in the very same convo i could take out of context, and claim spartans were planning to dodge emeriti by arranging farm/friendly wars or planning to get outside help against emeriti if it comes down to that and so on.. thats pretty stupid thing to do though, and doesnt achieve anything in the short run or the long run, other than giving ammunition to irrelevant haters like you..
[14:11, 30.4.2016] Bartheaven: so next time you wavea KD I wanted to war
[14:11, 30.4.2016]*Bartheaven:*I can DB?
[14:11, 30.4.2016]*Bartheaven:*that is your KD's logic?
[14:11, 30.4.2016]*Francis:*No you cant, you better not get intimidated by such threats though
a part from my convo with bart, where i supposedly threatened to dealbreak them..
Well.. how the war is going? I can report that after having bounce waved me two waves in a row in hostile, then using all this hits first wave to hit me even doing cqs for the guys with to low off.. they finally broke me.. :/
Its been a rough war for my province.
Attacks Suffered 90
Times Defeated 48
Total Land Lost in Combat 5748
Had 0 before teh war.
You're comparing the word of LG, a core clown fiesta member of CR, to the word of the leader of FS?
Are you even trying?
Actually, that's the person threatening a dealbreak's problem. It's best to just stick to your deals not threaten to break them, not to put up with people's bull**** because they're mad you're going to give their competition acres.Quote:

You don't appear to understand analogies.Quote:

You threaten to break an in-game deal, I'm going to take that to mean our deal is null and void.
You threaten to break an IRL contract, I'm going to take that to mean our contract is null and void.
You're really incredibly bad at this, go drink some coffee.
So do what, waste resources training up for something that may or may not happen? Don't waste resources training up and get your position in the age screwed over?Quote:
Threatening to =! doing
Threatening is dumb and as you said yourself, "call their bluff every time", i.e. see if they put words to deeds.
I don't know who LG is, but a more apt comparison would be Zauper saying dumb and **** and me acting on it (then again, Zauper doesn't say dumb ****, so still not a good comparison). FS is a known bully KD that uses any methods at their disposal to get what they want. Hell, the age before they threatened part of what is now YOUR KD with a DB if they legit waved FS' war target. Bullying works until it doesn't.Quote:

We don't have allies to rely on so that argument is silly.Quote:

We were looking for a war and you simply gave us a good reason to get one. Jesters legit waved a KD they had noticed, which only after their notice tagged up WAR AGREED. You countered by going double-hostile.
No kingdom of mine has ever been accused of being a pain in the ass to deal with, or managed to make the news in some drama or another literally every single age for as long as I can remember.
Spoiler: When you're intrinsically involved in drama with some subset of the community literally every single age, the problem is you, not the rest of the entire server.
i like that there's like 4 conversations going on in there.
The elit/ASF chat about what happened 20 ages ago,
Bart and Jesters vs. Various PPL trying to convince them that they're not an alliance.
Meep and Bart vs. Sampaun+Protector about the DB(not db..?) last age.
and finally, the actual war.
Uto-Forums are so fun!
Actually the problem is comunity, or in this particular case you.
See how you managed to make us part of this even though we are neither involved nor relevant for the topic on hand.
You are consistently doing this.
