If you remember that I was giving them advice, then perhaps you'd remember that I told them not to. While everyone else in the channel -- incl abs leadership, and IIRC - you, told them to. Are you really going to say that idling in a channel is the same thing as leading or playing in a kingdom?
Perhaps we should talk about you offering elit pretty much anything if he would farm out to you so you'd crown? Or you offering Simians a NAP for the following age if they would farm you acres.
Gosh, this whole alliance thing is interesting to me. Flogger and prot claim to not be allied to anyone. Yet, they act like they're allied to AMA/EJ, who claim to be allied to them. Remember sm0s post a few pages back asking who their allies are? Hmmm.Bb is an ally of AMA same way multiple Abs kds were allied and an Abs kd would not give preferential treatments to kingdoms such as sinners, mansoor, etc.
I'm not entirely sure what preferential treatment has to do with threatening to dealbreak and double.
I'm neither a mercenary nor a fly-by-night leader who has done nothing. Not only had I done more for Absalom than you on a kingdom level (including securing the first absalom crown?), but I'd run and won a major alliance war for Absalom when it was still a competitive top. Let's not forget ZA, either. The difference is that you expect your allies to be your slaves that block for you and make your life easier. You don't expect to actually have to do any work to be competitive.I never considered Havoc an ally or really to be part of Abs. I considered Mercy an ally but that was a different kd with different leadership. I don't consider a group of selfish mercenaries and fly-by-night walk in leaders who have done nothing allies. Had I stayed in Rage and kept on leading id have taken them indie but we'd have never been allied with Havoc/CR, feel free to ask Drixx or Cerberus for logs.
None of this, of course, is relevant to this war.
BB just pumped 5.5k defspecs on a 900a prov.
