The claims I've made are that flogger wanted to awar "Abs" for a long time prior to this age. This is very true and he's never made a secret of it. He has openly said this from the time he left Abs and his primary reason was that he likes fighting the best and strongest and that Abs has never been beaten in an alliance war and he wanted to be the first to beat them in one. When Abs disbanded, he again messaged me saying that he was disappointed that he wouldn't get his chance to beat them in an awar. He also didn't like dorje too much due to Sanc winning an age with dark elves after saying they were bad as flogger mentioned before.
The first thing that popped into floggers mind as soon as he found out that the #1 prov who was trying to get a cf with them was a former Abs player was that he can gb "abs". Yes, "abs", not Emeriti. It seems he was quite excited about this and it explains why BB wouldn't consider any reasonable resolution to this. Of course he had to pretend like he was considering resolutions both to trick Emeriti and also to maintain support from his allies so he would state he wanted something and if it was said that it wouldn't be possible then he'd show it to his allies and if Emeriti agreed to it, then he'd change it and say that's only one of the conditions he wants and add a bunch more that were unreasonable to ensure nothing could be worked out.
