Nice try with the propaganda, Argatha. You ignored our 3 turn NAP and attacked me with no provocation. Too bad my knights of Avalon squashed your pathetic elephant army at your second attack point. While your siege at my swamp fort in the winter time was ill advised as well. You lost your entire army trying to take it while the forces of man lost...1. Next time try not to fight your cold blooded Argathanians in a swamp during the winter. Or your 30+ hit point guys will just tire and lose to my 1hp bugs again.

So not only is Folket dishonorable and dishonest, but he's also a cheating Sack of S**t. Did he really think that attacking my capital with 4 spies in one turn to burn up my gems was a valid tactic?

It's not bad enough that he claims to want a NAP while trying to goad me into war (massively insulting my intelligence in the process), but he also has to cheat?

Will you be proud of a victory, Folket? If you win, will you be able to look in the mirror and say "I won fair and square because I was the better player."? You must be about twelve years old.

Right. That will be enough. This sort of language has no place on the forum and the personal attacks and accusations against a fellow forumer rather than lambasting his nation in the context of the game are totally unacceptable. If you're unable to conduct yourself appropriately on the forum, then keep your mouth shut. I will not bother to issue a second warning. Since I don't actually have direct mod powers here, any further lapses brought to my attention will involve incantations known to summon beings called Administrators, who generally do not like being disturbed for trivial reasons.

Is that clear?

Yes, it's clear. I take it then that cheating is acceptable behaviour?

"cheating" involves hacking the client or server; or going against game-specific rules. I don't see that as happening - if he broke his agreement, that may be dishonorable but isn't cheating per se. trying to burn up your gems by having an initial attack is "gamey", maybe an exploit... i guess you could argue along those lines.

I didn't think your mages would use gems if attacked by a small force, so am a bit surprised this worked against you.

It worked, though I'm not going to say how well at this time. Let him sit through all the batreps, if he wants to sample the cheese.

Rytek...I honestly didn't think we signed a NAP!!!! I knew I had them with my three other neighbors which left only you to attack!!!! 8^) And yeah.....you kicked my arse fair and square. Problem is....these MP 48 hour games move so slowly, I can't remember who I NAPPED 3 months ago or not. My apologies to you, sir, for the offense.

Odd though, Klaus the hero had 12 death gems and was scripted to cast darkness. At the beginning of the turn there were no death gems on his person. Weird. Anyway, I know I am going to pay for the.....uh......"mistake" I made. Please....just make it quick and merciful. I HATE slow deaths.

8^)
