Guinea pigs are still #2 in England, anyway.
We have a different use for them here....[eg]
Perhaps you're getting guinea pigs confused with gerbils (bigger eg).

Hey Gravey101,

Nice backstab on that Last turn! I guess it's always easier to suddenly drop an alliance and attack on the same turn than it is to do the honorable thing and declare war first. Hope you enjoy the victory!

Hey Lord Chane,

Yes, I will enjoy it. Probably more so now after your post than I would have done otherwise. Please try to remember that it's a game, not a matter of honour. I play to win. You are free to play however you wish, and I guess free to criticize me on public forums as well, instead of doing the honorable thing and sending a private email.

Gravey.

One who shows no honor deserves no honor. Yes, it is a game and you should play to win. Stooping to backstabbing tactics though is a cheap way to win. But hey, if that's the way you prefer to win, then go for it. And if you don't like being criticized in public then maybe you ought to rethink your actions. You obviously had the power to win without resorting to that sort of tactic.

>One who shows no honor deserves no honor.

Hmm. One of us is talking about honor within the context of a computer game, the other about a personal attack on a public message board. Can you not see the difference here?

>Stooping to backstabbing tactics though is a cheap way to win.

Yawn... here we go again. There seems to be a small, but occasionally vocal, community that insist the game be played by their rules, and anyone who fails to do so is a cheat, or has no honor, or whatever. I've heard it all before...

Guys, this is not the place for this. Drop it or take the discussion private.

Certainly Geo. I for one would have preferred it to have been kept private all along... Mr Chane, email me privately if you wish to continue the discussion.
