Republic of Octobrev - Double Hostile w/ Strippers & ghetto

Any sort of quick cliff notes?

I gather:

DD razed Korp, Steel, Sheister one age, when they were bigger, and now are getting razed? How many times did DD raze RoO, and why did they do that? Now RoO is taking revenge?

After reading some of those logs, I also feel for Macho, who seemed to be pretty even keel and trying to repair things, and just getting yelled at internally..

Thanks Sheister, wow am I embarrassed, I thought this was some thread from the age 50s.

Any chance of recollection? I think you would ultimately get more lulz if they are still around.

The time has come to publicize the Republic of Octobrev's double hostile.

Some weeks ago Korp retal'd a hit by Strippers. Some of you may recall Strippers from the 50's, a loud mouthed warring ghetto that received frequent deletions. For anybody interested, they still receive deletions but it seems as though their glory days are long since past.

Anyways, Strippers retal'd Korp's retal and one thing led to another and we ended up in a multi-week "conflict". At about twice our size, their monarch was pretty confident that they would sort this out in no time and put us in our place. Well here we are a couple of weeks later and their monarch has abandoned along with one other province, two provinces have defected, we managed to peasant kill one, and another deleted.



Cue sheister.

sheister had a similar experience with some ghetto nobody has ever heard of before. They did a 0 scientist abduct and he responded with a trad. They didn't think this was appropriate and retal'd him, which he followed up with a retal of his own. Long story short, he informed them that he would be razing into future wars. And he did. Each time they would CF the kingdom he was in, and each time he would defect and pick up where he left off or wait for their next war. Unable to grasp the finer points of diplomacy, this ghetto decided to chase him rather than work out a reasonable CF deal. So three wars later and several thousand acres razed, sheister was invited into the Republic of Octobrev to help **** with Strippers.

It is at this point that the self-proclaimed famous ghetto he had been quarrelling with decided they would continue to raze him despite having an agreement with his previous monarch. And they opted to do this into our very long, very active hostile. It is at this juncture that I will begin using the words "hostile" and "conflict" interchangeably, because there is no difference, but the ghetto in question seems to have a hard time wrapping their head around that.

We obviously did not take very kindly to this interference in our conflict with Strippers - sheister was now an honoured member of the Republic of Octobrev and thus his problem, this unwarranted razing, became our problem. Korp took the time to inform said ghetto of this and reiterated that just like sheister, we would raze into their future wars as retribution should they not desist. They opted instead to begin razing Korp, and then Bishop, while continuing to claim in #tactics that they were targeting only one province.

And now I will present you all with some of the more memorable quotes to come out of our correspondence with them:




At this stage both kingdoms are coordinating attacks so I'd like to congratulate them on that impressive achievement, particularly Strippers since they are absolutely incompetent.
As it stands both kingdoms are now locked in an unwinnable struggle to raze us until we leave them alone and neither is willing to negotiate.

In the spirit of the #acres4octo campaign that this kingdom began in age 58?, our condition for ceasefire and allowing them to continue their age unabated is 5k acres to Octo. Alternatively the deletion of Abi's province is also acceptable.

Nice one pillz, I was there when viv left. There was internal conflict aside from the fact that there were a couple who played there(both deleted). Lotsa dram on who needs to be monarch until such time that no one cares and minded their own. Korp's retal was valid but since there were orders to hit back, some of us did thinking that it's close to EOA and no one gives a f*** anymore. I was one of those provs who defected since there were really no leadership and everyone was clueless aside from someone who returned and messed things up like sending PM's bad mouthing viv,hence she quit after 2 of our provs defected(i'm the other one).

You're from the strippers kd? Vivian was their monarch IIRC? That wasn't even close to eoa... It was like yr2...

It was in the spirit of the conflict as demonstrated by your tldr; the culture that prevailed.

Yeah..When i joined uto again after a 2 year hiatus, i was on their kd. all i know was that there was already some rifts in the kd. some people sending me pm's why i should not trust her and such. but i just enjoyed playing until we are unable to get any wars anymore and i decided to move on to another kd in which matija is now a part of.

I'm told the only holdout of the DD members that participated in this ordeal is Krynn.

Abi, macho, lost, & raven have all left DD.

the only participation from Krynn was a failed diplo with Bishop, because of some semi sham inside man thing while we we talking, and retal raze when hit. the whole thing was ego driven BS. It was driven by those who have now left the Kingdom including Macho and Lost. Those against it are still about. all in all an interesting education for all inside and out. As far as I am concerned there are no hard feelings here. I hope this will pass over and I can return to Tactics and have real intelligent game related conversations again.

[Korp]

I'm not sure there ever been a intelligent conversation about strategy in #tactics. :/ Ok maybe I'll never or twice.

There are enough veterans in there that there could be.

[Band of Horses]

Why isn't Krynn allowed in #tactics?

He is. He's there now.
He may have been banned for a short while but most of dd also had hop and voice just so they felt welcome

Okay good. It's when they speak that you are winning.
