Actually Rager. I have played this game since Age 4. That was like, 1998? something like that. In all that time, I have never felt like driving anyone out of the game. Ever. I have played with, against, and dealt with some of the biggest pricks in the game's history. I have never thought that driving anyone out of the game was good for it, until now. That really should say a LOT.

"fitzgerald"?
What does that have to do with you making ridiculously ironic statements in any way? Clearly you don't know what irony means. I suggest you go look it up before making yourself look even more incompetent.
As for calling in help, we haven't called anyone in. Hardly as though we need assistance to deal with half a dozen provinces... get a grip.
Strippers have already shown that the two of you coordinated efforts. As well, I believe one of sheister's former kingdoms also helped you.
And of course there is the, shall we call it, indirect assistance you facilitated for yourself by informing Samsung how to perma kill us and which of us to kill.
Not to worry, she won't be needing help taking care of 6 provs next age. Right?
Let's play hide and seek. You're it.
We and Strippers each had our own separate reason for razing you, and Strippers would have razed you with or without us razing you. Your kd got caught up in a major f*** up due to failed diplomacy, made enemies out of two kingdoms that were each at least double your size, and got what was on your way. That is very different from contacting a friend kingdom for help. Let's make that distinction clear.
Nope. If sheister's former kd was razing your kd, it was made independently for whatever reason.Quote:

Nope. It's more like Samsung was the one calling in for help to get his monarchy. We made 0 raze on you during Krynn's negotiation and waited out. Then Bishop pulled out and demanded 7500 acres and the rest was history.Quote:

Papa Legba do.you feel it's a smart move to instruct a rogue province in a enemy kingdom while you are doing diplo with the said kingdom. The acres was down to 1,5k acres or an apology from abi. Then you guys just had to **** it up.
Coordination with strippers began before any attacks were made on you. During our exclusive & active hostile with strippers.
You hit us, were threatened/warned, and proceeded to gb us with them. That is help, one way or the other.
Sheister's kd I'm confident said they were doing it in order to secure a deal with you, but I can't confirm it from my phone.
And lol @ your excuses for the Samsung debacle. Any way you word it you violated terms of negotiations.
Anyways like nightmare said, I'm sure you won't have any complaints about next age since we are so few in number. Good luck hiding.
And yet you have. By coordinating attacks with strippers when you had no justification for double hostiling us you received help in 'dealing' with us and our threats.
Just like Samsung was going to help you perma kill us.
You might not need the help but on at least 2 and maybe 3 occasions you've coordinated with 3rd parties.... Sort of indicative of wanting help.
Imo you should rebuild HaJ. You embody their play style and attitude & you'll need about 30 kds to help you out next age.
Diplomat Calvin: "We're holding you responsible for the attempted assassination of our leader!"
Diplomat Hobbs: "What did we do? The assassin was one of your citizens and was acting on his accord..."
Diplomat Calvin: "The assassin contacted you for help. You told him when and where our leader was and the best method for which to try and assassinate him. We have this all on record."
Diplomat Hobbs: " And...? Again, WE did not do anything."
Do you see how Hobbs is obviously wrong in that they actually did something in aiding the attempt to destabilize Calvin's government? OK, now try to apply this to your situation.
The point is that we didn't seek out help as Pillz and Sheister seem to suggest.
help or not, we didn't call in for help. RoO was the common enemy for both, strippers gb'ed you and so did we.
Do come back when you have the confirmation for this.Quote:
Sheister's kd I'm confident said they were doing it in order to secure a deal with you, but I can't confirm it from my phone.
I don't think you understand what I'm arguing for. Pillz and Sheister accused us for proactively seeking out outside help in razing RoO, which is false.
In your post, Hobbs never called in help from Calvin's citizen, it was actually the other way around.
I honestly don't give a **** about your argument with Steel. I am just baffled at the fact that you are unable to comprehend what went wrong in that diplomacy and chose to put all blame on Bishop. It amazing that you don't see how abi instructing a rogue province in our kingdom how to best kill us off is damaging for the diplo talks.
No it isn't.. Just because one is not looking for a horse.. and one does not need a horse.. one would still be foolish to look a gift horse in the mouth.
You seem to confuse "took advantage of" and "asked for". Just one of your many daily flaws of logic.
Asking for help would be naming our kingdom to indicate your armies were out and hoping and praying someone would come along and take advantage.. (Please see previous posts on irony ;) )
And will you get off the double hostile thing.. We came after Sheister.. we would have left after he was dealt with and that would have been it.. it only became a "double hostile" as you put it after you and your friends started making threats about an age and a half of razes. Stop making out that we're the aggressors here.
Yes.. and? I fail to see how this relates to our situation.. unless of course Diplomat Calvin had threatened to kill Hobbs, his family.. his friends.. and not rest until Hobbs himself was out of the game.
In which case, Hobbs may be wrong about having done "nothing".. but he is correct about having done "nothing wrong". Such a response is perfcetly reasonable when faced with threats of death and dismemberment.
Do you see how your example bears very little relevance to this situation?
About as damaging as opening the "talks" by increasing your demand from 5000 to 6000 acres (or whatever figure Bishop plucked out of the air).
Funny thing that nobody has mentioned here is how as soon as I enlightened Samsung on the game mechanics.. he came straight to you saying "ABi made me do it".. I find that very unsuaual for someone truly intent on taking you down. I still maintain that Samsung was put up to messaging me in an attempt to derail any diplo. Borne out by the fact that he shared his messages to me with you, not the actions of a true rebel in any way, but most certainly the actions of a stooge.
You guys wanted your fight.. you didn't want anyone talking their way out of it.. you wanted blood.. and you got it.. only problem is it's not our blood being spilled.
rofl. It isn't? lol. Ok....
If you're hoping to gain something from a kingdom you're trying to diplo with, during a CF, doing things that directly hurt that kingdom (i.e. instructing turncoats how to most effectively harm the kingdom) leaves the other kingdom with less reason to want to work with you.
This is one of the most basic tenets of diplomacy and if you can't grasp that very simple concept to understand why talks "suddenly" became ridiculous and Bishop and company "suddenly" became unwilling to work with you then you truly are hopeless. You are the makers of your own misfortune. You have turned what should have been a very minor conflict stemming from an odd set of circumstances into the potential death of your kingdom.
"In our pursuit to exact some revenge on a player that actively worked to harm our kingdom, Dungeon Dwellers engaged a kingdom into an active and ongoing hostile situation. This is something that we do not condone and we apologize for extending our previous issue using those means."
Is that seriously that hard? If you had just apologized with something like that you could have been CF'd, had everyone move on and this whole thing could have been ancient history, but instead you choose to push headlong into a losing battle against a kingdom with absolutely nothing to lose armed with nothing but your tears and cries of how unfair the situation is; all while continuing to insult and demean a kingdom that you still fail realize you need something from.
This isn't on Sheister. This isn't on Pillz. This isn't on Korp. This isn't on Bishop. This isn't on Samsung. This is on you. You are the reason your kingdom is in this situation and you will either be the reason the conflict is resolved or the reason your kingdom falls apart.
Pretty sure he took the 6k figure out of the paper summary. I understand you've all got great difficulties with basic reasoning though so I can understand why you would think thats out of thin air.
He was a solo-province with 0 offence. He couldn't even hit us himself when he asked you for 'help'. He made some calls for other provinces to hit us, one did. We immediately got to killing it and he defected. Samsung then apologized for his behaviour, explained that you gave him a list of names to kill, and said he did it only because he thought we were inactive. A few days after that he trained off and began hitting us again.Quote:

We had no reason to derail negotiations, and certainly did not require an excuse to do so. We've provided full logs of KD chat, in-game forums, IRC, and the in-game PM's he provided us. Your defence against all these corroborating pieces of evidence is 'nope youre lying you had him kill korp on purpose!'.
For the record, and you can search this thread, I never made any definitive remarks about disbanding your ghetto until after the Samsung incident. What happens to DD is entirely on your hands, resulting from your supreme idiocy in the mismanagement of this situation.Quote:

We threatened nothing but to inconvenience you by hitting into your wars. We tabled 3 separate offers you could accept to get us to lift that threat. It's too late now, because of the Samsung thing, which is what blew negotiations out of the water to begin with. And that was, as I said, entirely your fault.Quote:

Do you see how your example bears very little relevance to this situation?
So you actually decided that Hobbs didn't need to pay anything to Calvin because it'd be more convenient to kill his President instead of reach a deal. Only you failed and now you've got a war on your hands. And you're justifying your actions by saying 'look, now we're at war!'.
^All that aside, do you admit that you were wrong in accusing us for seeking outside help?
No. You sought out a gb with Strippers and you wilfully directed Samsung to help you. Strippers may have already been hitting us, but coordinating with them amounts to asking for them. Just like carefully explaining to Samsung how to kill us and which of us to kill is also seeking help to resolve your problems.
At this rate I would wager that Samsung was itself a multie from DD.
I'd just like to throw out there that at 5k I said the acres demand should match the paper summary as a logical balance and incentive to resolve conflict early for DD. To not understand that reasoning as Abi has demonstrated, proves further that we are wasting our time trying to educate her. Those that do not want to learn will not learn.
Funny so funny. Genuinely made me laugh.
You spend your age doing FSU to other kingdoms then whine about a 'rogue province' trying to do the same to you....
And as if you wouldn't have helped a 'rogue province' to get your own ends if the tables weren't turned. Genuinely extremely funny thanks for the laugh
What we would or wouldn't do is irrelevant. I will use this thread as an example of that.
omg, BoH is the leak!
I am just a spreader of truths.
IS TRUTH LIKE PEANUT BUTTER?
I just blew my own mind....
Why would that be Kestrel? I don't get it? Are you implying oral sex?
Abi seems to have an obsession with the male genitalia. :o
Well, Who doesn't Korp?
