I have returned your bunny, dear sir... hopefully it does not miss it's head :hurt:

Sorry, bro, the treaty was violated when you moved into the buffer zone. No hard feelings, but we're at war.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

If Bandar log explains what that insane message he sent me means, I might be able to formulate a response.

Unless it's supposed to be a joke?

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

How could you possibly understand a monkey people? They'd probably just be yelling things like 'Monkey like eat kalamari' at you pre-attack

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

My current hypothesis is that Marakata's had been huffing paint, then decided to throw rocks into an Octopus

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I was trying to infuse some light humor into the preceedings, and take the piss out of your Thing That Should Not Be. guess our simmian brains have more capacity for humor than you simple calimari.

@ Domenje:

I would sell a hammer for water gems, if that is a more available resource to you...

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. But how did you know....

AAaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Hrmm, read back over the messages. :)

I said I was going to take that province to act as a buffer zone between us. I didn't say no one would take it, and then jump into it myself, which would have been rather dishonorable.

So, considering that, I again offer your a 3 turn NAP. :)

- Pangaea

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Thought I'd better stick up a post, apologies for staling one turn a while back - I think I thought I'd already done the turn - I was surprised to discover I hadn't! :mad: I'm also on GMT so tend to do my turn in the evenings after work, so that's why it sometimes looks like I'm cutting it fine to the deadline. ;)

Nice to see you're all having a good time but if anyone needs to send me a message - please do so in game or via PM so I get an e-mail. With a little baby to look after, I don't have time to keep up with the thread. ;)

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I know it's a rookie game, but it's still really balls annoying to lose so badly to such a rookie mistake.

Bottom line, the great Arco/Man battle, every single one of my casters was scripted with a spell that costs one gem as their first action. I forgot to bring any gems.

Result: Not only did I miss out on my first round of powerful essential spells, I also proceeded to have all my casters to not follow script for after that either, and just generally suck ***.

/cry for me Argentina.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I'm trying to figure out what spell it is. Since your casters are only 2N1A or 3N and one with 2A2S it makes me curious. I'm guessing it'd be Wind Guide for the sorcerer. Maybe Growing Fury? Couldn't be Haste cause that wouldn't have helped. Foul Vapours? No no W mages...

What 'battle changing spell' were you thinking of that requires a gem and able to cast at that level? I know you have Thaumaturgy 2+ and Enchantment3+ and Alteration 3+... Can't find it.

And I made a huge mistake too, I kept my rearmost near my mages. I lost 3 of my good mages! the other 1 of the 4 was just a mystic that I didn't care much about. Also lost a few elephants. Poor dears.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Hey everyone, Arc had 14 Astrologers and 3 mystics down in that fight, it's also most of his army. Blah blah blah, publicly state information like a dick.

FYI, he also has enslave, Thaum 6, ect blah.

Quit being a ****ing dick Arco. Stop publicly posting info.

Also, stop quoting me as saying things I haven't said.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I say good sir, there's no need to be quite so alarmed.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I am not alarmed. I am pissed that dick**** mcgee has to go around ****ing stating what all my casters are, and what all the research he knows I have is, even when other people wouldn't have that info, in public.

It's ****ing stupid. First he decides to publicize the fight turns before it goes down, then publicly states everything he gathered from that. It's a ****ing dick thing to do, and I'm ****ing tired of it. I don't go around saying exactly what his research/unit composition/ect is, because I'm not a ****ing dick.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Please, this is not really so bad as you think. Your reactions are quite the motivation for his continuing though I suspect.

Edit: True dominions dick moves are like chrisp pulling this: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showp...&postcount=205

Oh and btw, this is a REAL dick move:

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Oh my.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Bad how? Bad for me that he tells other people info? No, it's not very bad. Bad of him to be going around saying **** like that? Yes. It is. It's very bad mannered to go around telling everyone in the game everything about one of the players.

Vanheim gave out Capitol information, and other info on Marignon, but because he's not a huge ****ing dick, deleted the post when he realized it was bad mannered.

Arco insists on escalating his bad manner further and further every turn.

While I am sure he delights in the knowledge that he is pissing me off, because he is a colossal dick, he's already made it abundantly clear that he's the kind of colossal dick that would bad manner the game regardless.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Leaking infomation is part of the game, if there is an advantage to be netted :)

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

BTW Kaelik, do you use the word dick this much in real life, or is this an isolated occurrence. Its makes your posts much less interesting to read than if you made use of a wider vocabulary. :)

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Its what's on his mind lately methinks

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I am using a wider vocabulary. It's just that most of it ends up being replaced.

Your homophobia isn't interesting.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Kaelik don't make me more noble than I am.

I deleted no post/info. The info you got via game Message.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

**** is a really wide spread dude. at least try and add an extra star. like i can call you *****! look! wider vocabulary! And i hear you even counted arco's mages wrong :P

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Um... Are you getting stupider over time?

You are complaining that I'm not using a variety of words. Now you are complaining that I could be using too many words and you don't know which.

Those are exact opposites. If I am using different words each time, it doesn't matter if they are with four asterisks or five.

Now please stop trolling this thread that has nothing to do with you except that your super good IRC buddy refuses to ever speak for himself and instead begs his friends to troll for him. This is for people in the game, since you aren't in the game, go away.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Oh dear.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

@ PriestyMan, Quitti, TheConway

Come one, come all! step right up to the newb fighting event of the week!

in the left, we have Nosantee, playing the part of Arcoscephale and employing a strategy of well placed devulging of national secrets to the receptive audience

in the right, we have Kaelik, playing the part of Man. His use of lyrical language alone is worth the five euro entry you've payed.

so set back and enjoy the show. please only prod the combatents with the pointy sticks that we have provided for that purpose.

:smirk:

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Sticks!? I want mine! I never got one!

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Apparently moderators here have this thing where they make it their goal to defend the poor trolls, so I anticipate being banned very shortly.

All communication will have to be done via messages or email if you have it, as I will not be visiting this forum ever again.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Turn postphoned as asked for by Man.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I'm fairly sure you're just saying that in the heat of the moment, but if you're really going to be leaving Shrapnel there are two places I know of that you can go to that are either Dominions 3 based or have threads for it so you don't have to stop playing the MP version of the game.

first is the invision forums for dom3
http://z7.invisionfree.com/Dom3mods/index.php?act=idx

second is the SomethingAwful forums, I haven't been there myself. They also charge a 10$ subscription fee.

Can't condone leaving here, since almost all games use these forums on Llamaserver and almost always need a forum post sign in. You'd essentially be quitting Dom 3. Which is silly, cause this game is awesome.

Eitherway, have fun, it was nice playing with you :3

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Sorry to interrupt, but I thought I should repeat here what I've written via pm to Kaelik. Our moderators don't read every post made on these forums. Nor we do keep tally of every player in every multiplayer thread. Instead we rely on you all to report posts that you believe violate the forum guidelines using the Report Post icon at the header of the post. This brings a particular post to the attention of moderators for review and action, if deemed appropriate. Kaelik's posts were moderated because they were reported. I've offered him the opportunity to calm down a bit and reconsider how he'd like this to play out.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

@Fumanstu: Can you please change your settings on this forum to accept private messages? I need to talk about our trade with you. :)

Thanks!

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I require earth gems. If you've got some for trade gimme a PM and we'll work out a deal.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Done! Didn't know you had to turn it on. :doh: PM away! :)

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Attention all nations!

Arcoscephale further requires more space for which to expand, and while Man is being claimed from the East, we now turn our attention to the West.

Shinuyama, Bandar, and R'lyeh. You have entered the scope of this nation.

We are currently...
Leaning towards Shinuyama
Leaning away from BandarLog
"It'd be a huge hassle" from R'lyeh

Become prepared, and know that at this moment, we are currently starting the count down the turns of our NAP 5 we and Shinuyama have. If you'd like to re-direct the attention of Arcoscephale, we may be tempted.

5 Turns remain.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

If you try and invade me I'll kick your teeth in.

Otherwise, have fun!

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

ryleh attacks me

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I don't think Vanhiem deserves to die just yet.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

@ Nosatee:

wow, your not going the suprise attack route, are you?

@ Dominje:

You must admit, you were getting cheeky

-----------------

Marignan attacks me.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

We all have NAPs, remember? I can't suddenly surprise attack, and neither can you, as that'd be breaking the NAP5 I've got with all of you. I have to wait the respective 5 turns we've all agreed upon.

Therefore, I announce it and tell the world we're counting down.

Well, Me and Shinuyama anyways. I am noble, and respect NAPs. Five turns of preparation! Use it well, demon mountain dwellers!

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Is Marignon going to stale? It's like T minus 1 minute...

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

nrasch--Congrats on soundly handing my butt to me in that epic, epic siege battle. Hope you don't mind that I sieged your other province while your hippie troops were celebrating by taking hits out of bongs made from my troops' skulls.

PS--Hope your prophet enjoys that horror mark! That's what he gets for not using protection lol.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Turn got submitted, and I got finally squashed...

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Yup, Vanheim eliminated.

Better luck next time my friend...

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

can ryleh build castles on land?

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

yes, building castles on land is the default, thus any nation can do that. considering that most maps have a much larger land mass than ocean mass it would be too huge a disadvantage from preventing UW nations to build forts on land.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Godspeed Vanheim... we hardly knew ye.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Yes, but they DO have a different troop selection that underwater castles. In addition, they also spawn free troops in coastal areas.

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

The Gobbos have stalled again...

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

Aaaagggghhhh! What the hell is it with people who can't shoot an email saying "I'm out"?

Should we get a sub, or have them go AI?

Re: Rock the Cradle--Noob Only! (RUNNING)
 

I would love for them to go AI... Hehehehehe
