[CuriousCat]

I only sent one reminder... sorry if the glitch caused concern... I just remembered a few turns back that you said you sometimes did the turns offline and forgot to upload them.

The second to fall is the Giants.
I have probably 2 turns left but it is over in all but name. Well done again Panther, maybe I will have an answer next time.
Thanks for being such a good host Grim.
And at least I killed a nation this time, sorry Pasha.
I would love to be in the next slufest if we have one Steerpike.

Better study history .

The south never won anything .

The southern states lost the american civil war .
The romans were defeated from northern german tribes .
South vietnam was defeated by north vietnam .
Prussia formed germany and defeated the southern austria hungary .
....

So the south always loses . Q.E.D.

[Steerpike]

Hmmm...Not everything is measured by defeats.
You mentioned the Romans being defeated by the Northern German Tribes, that may be true of the western Roman empire but the eastern Roman empire based in Bysantium( Constantinople, Istanbul)survived until 1453 when it was taken by the turks from the South.
The Southern states (Florida,Ohio) won Dubya the Last two elections (much to my dismay).
America was defeated by the NVA. North beats North.
Prussia kicked *** I will give ya that.
Purely from a cultural viewpoint, and only looking at Europe mediteranean area you have the Empires of Egypt, Greece and Rome all in the south these bad boys have so much influence on our lives today (Roman Law, Greek Philosophy, Egyptian ...ahh..Monuments).
I could go on.
Lastly I come from the South of Australia and Australia Roooolz.

We have the biggest Reef in the world, Deserts, Rainforest, Snow, wierd@$$ Fauna like the Platypus, 8 of the top ten most deadly snakes, poisonous Spiders, jellyfish which will kill you in two minutes, great white sharks that dont actually eat you but kill you seeing if they can and a little Octopus that will kill ya as well.
No wonder there is only 20 million of us.
And you dont know how much that line about studying history made me laugh.

Tsk. Tsk. Every good Australian should know that Ohio is a midwestern state and not a southern state. Shocking. Simply shocking!

Now that the root of all evil (Mitclan) has been completly defeated, the great north western Arco alliance will surely prevail.

Good luck to the new masters of my former territory!

So Panter...that ID that died to independents that was a big shocker. I was watching the battle and was like wtf.

[The Panther]

Very weird indeed. I had 18 attack to their 13 defense and missed on all four attacks! The odds of that are 0.01% or 1 in 10,000. Maybe I should avoid the lottery today!
