Ah foolish druids,

Your whining gets old and smells like rotten fish, you should finish with whining and get on with it. If you want to attack, then attack, there's no need to justify your actions.

I've fought in incarnations with veteran incarnates where forge of ancients and burden did not get people bunching up their panties and cry foul (it did cause some nations to declare war in the case of burden of time, none did so for forge of the ancients), your cries of hard standards just sound hollow and ... well let me refrain in the name of tact.

We await you should you decide to do more then yip and yap.

Hello, everyone!

Not that I really have a stake in this yet (need more time to look at the position), but I can't help but notice that mockingbird has both Arcane Nexus and Forge of the Ancients up in MonkeyParadise (which we're also both in) without getting war dec'd by the rest of the world.

I jumped the gun earlier in this game when I assumed that Ragnar's Wolves was fully cognizant of his actions, when as it turned out he was merely clueless. I wished not to repeat my mistake.

If I sounded rude or curt, I apologize. Sleep and time have been very short for me lately. My posts were intended to be a courtesy; I'm sorry if they fell short.

At any rate, nothing I've said hasn't already been gone over in any of a number of threads about NAPs on this or the other forum.

As for MonkeyParadise, and not getting jumped for casting Arcane Nexus and Forge of the Ancients:

1) When I cast those spells, I only had a NAP with one of the four remaining players (Allium). Of the others, one was already at war with me, and another had declared hostile intent. I checked in advance in general terms to make sure that Allium would be okay with my actions. Since I was a bit vague about what I was going to do, I wouldn't have a problem if Allium changed strategy and decided to jump me, however.

2) I was at war with the (still) leading nation in the game, who was twice my size. Without those spells I would have been crushed. So really, the major reason I wasn't ganged up on immediately was that people were more afraid of the game leader.

3) The game leader then cast Astral Corruption, which massively irritated all the other players.

Mockingbird

PS My panties are wrinkle-resistant. It comes in handy!

Can I have an extra day for this turn? Still figuring things out.

Re: New Kinda Noob game Starting
 

Also, if there are any diplomatic agreements/negotiations I should know about, please inform me.

Re: New Kinda Noob game Starting
 

Of course, extended.

Groundworm didn't update you?

Re: New Kinda Noob game Starting
 

He has now, thanks.

Re: New Kinda Noob game Starting
 

Just a quick heads up in case folks are wondering, I checked with Ulm and they are active, I presume the stales are planned stales (basically nothing to do).

Re: New Kinda Noob game Starting
 

I would like a 24 hour extension to submit my turn, please.

Thank you.

Re: New Kinda Noob game Starting
 

extended =)
