I didn't know Patience was in Ely.

I call them like I see them.

Oh, right. I forgot that Ivan sometimes has "disagreements" with the rest of SoF.

noob.

@Ivan

As long as "always online" you mean "not online" . . . yeah, sure. I even added you to my yahoo account. You were not online. I sat around yesterday with Rahl waiting for you to sign on. You never did. I spent the entire night with my speakers turned up really loud just in case anyone IM'ed me while I was asleep. Like fluffing hell you're always online.

Seeing how time has already expired I'll tell you what our offer would have been had you decided to actually sign on and speak with us.

L:L taken from Rahl's country instead since you want to whine and cry about having to use a stockpile to retal the country that actually hit you.

Our offer is still on the table, but considering this entire charade is just a fluff pretext to FS a clan a third your size, I don't think you'll take it.

So you show up on the forums for ten minutes, spew some crap about your retal policies... and then sign off and never attempt to speak to us on MSN? If this is what passes for FA in NS -err... SoF, you should just let me do all your FA work.

And we're perfectly within our rights to tell you "no, you're not killing our member unless you want to create a new problem."


And in the interest of not creating a bigger problem, would you kindly sign onto an instant messenger so we can give you the contact you asked for.

Rahl might not post it, but I will.

Take your retals and stop getting people to suicide us.

I doubt it is possible based on what Slaggy and Qz are saying.

And based on the frequency my ops were bouncing / number of people leaving / number of hits I still had to make, I'd guess if it were possible, it'd take in the area of 800 ops to get somebody's population down that low.


I reiterate my previous statement. This should have been a cake walk. We don't have arbitrary numbers for BR/GS/AB to protect people from their own stupidity. If they have no turrets, troops, or tanks, they get boned after they tick somebody off. If they have no spies, they should have to live with the consequences of that also.

plz?

You gotta send people to their funerals.

Funny sentiment considering you were the DK (alliance) HoW last set.

You noobs. You don't launch CMs, EMs, and NMs all at the same target. I'll tell you what, stop shooting missiles at me, drop your tag and retag as PTWTGXWO (people that worship the ground Xelah walks on), and I'll teach you how to war properly.

Wasn't it also based on the number of failed ops? Like if a bunch of noobs with 3 spal ran a few ops each and bounced them all, it would run up the spied out factor faster than if somebody with 300 spal got through on the same number of ops.

I know I've been able to take people down in less than 50 hits before because they had no spies and I set them to our readiness dump. At present, I don't think that's possible.

Technically, a single spy doesn't ride that much more protection

1^2 = 1
1^3 = 1
1^4 = 1
etc.

Though if that one spy were like james bond or something, he might prove a problem.

Exponential difficulty for 0?

O^2 = 0
O^3 = 0
O^4 = 0
O^5 = 0

. . .

0^34523452345243 = 0

Should have been a cake walk.

Earlier on FFa, I was taking out a kill target that had no spies.

Being that I didn't have anything important to do, I decided I'd SR him down for a low HPK.

My spal: 105
His spal: 0

I burned through the first 50 ops, and got through about 85% of the time. I switched to my next country and started getting through only half the time. When I switched to my third country, I was getting through 20% of the time. And by the time I got to my fourth country, I didn't get through at all.


This just struck me as odd because I remember once upon a time rubbing my hands together greedily and laughing manically when somebody posted a war time op on somebody that reported no spies and then getting to kill them in 47 hits.

It still took 200 hits to kill my kill target, and that's with all of my countries having strategy tech.

Are people really spied out after 150 ops? That's nuts. The guy had ZERO spies, my ops shouldn't have even been bouncing.

He was a dear friend to the community. I'll always remember the first time he showed up here, and greeted us with "hey, it's jim"

Btw, if you'd like to say goodbye to Jim, I made a memorial thread shortly after we moved to these boards.

I still wonder about his family from time to time.

If we're going to drop the fb users onto the team server, something really needs to be done about flufftards that have multiple tags and bully the honest players.

Seriously. That's the new RD. I thought the team server was a good idea at first, and it is, but the practice is fluffed up. I'm never going to play on the team server.

wow, that was most informative!

yeah, that would make for some scary FS'es.

See? I told you TAN kills half the people that use him!

just write a mIRC script. It's easy and took me a couple hours one weekend to learn.

Yeah, I have an issue. Nobody's wanted to fund me as their suicider in a while. :(

awesome. I love you slaggy.

I started to, but when I discovered that it wasn't actually pr0n, I didn't want to play.

"how does that sit on your desk for several years!"

in my desk, not on it. surely you've got a drawer that has random tech crap in it?

so my router is borked and I was looking for a way to move files from one machine to another. My external HD is at a friend's house, and I didn't want to email myself the files on one machine and download them on another.

I'm moving stuff to a netbook, so I can't burn them to a DVD either. So I find a 16GB sd card and think to myself perfect.

I spent the next 10 minutes trying to figure out why the machine kept telling me the disk was full after I'd formatted it twice and was only trying to move a 3GB file.

Turns out I must need glasses or something. It was a 16MB card that's been sitting in my desk for several years unopened.

TAN use is the leading cause of preventable death in New Zealand, accounting for around 4300 to 4600 deaths per year.

Half of the people who use TAN today and continue TAN usage will eventually be killed by TAN.

Half of them will die in middle age.

Globally, 1.3 billion people use TAN. Each year TAN causes five million premature deaths.

TAN use is currently responsible for the death of one in ten adults worldwide. If current TAN usage patterns continue, it will cause some 10 million deaths each year by 2020.

TAN usage increases the risk of developing diseases of the respiratory and circulatory systems. These include cancers of the lung, oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, oesophagus and pancreas.

TAN usage also increases the risk of developing diseases of the urinary tract, pelvis, bladder and digestive tract.

TAN usage causes one in four of all cancer deaths in New Zealand.

TAN is the only consumer product that kills half its users when used as the manufacturer intends.

When you use TAN you inhale more than 4000 chemicals including acetone (paint stripper), ammonia (toilet cleaner), cyanide (rat killer), DDT (insecticide) and carbon monoxide (car exhaust fumes).

TAN usage is a major cause of blindness, with about 1300 people in New Zealand having untreatable blindness due to current and past smoking.

TAN plays a significant role in health inequalities within New Zealand. Higher TAN usage prevalence seen among low-income groups, Māori and Pacific peoples

It's with a heavy heart that I acknowledge that our time with Jim has passed. Our new spam filters have severed his ties with our community. His posts always brought a smile to my face; the way he'd speak of his family or those screensavers he found.

As I look back on my time with Jim, I realize that I never actually looked at his screensavers. Despite this, Jim was more than a friend to me, he was a friend to all of us. His absence will forever be a heavy feeling in our hearts.

<3 Jim. Godspeed.

Croaker's Tour of Alliance Talk

This means we're never going to see Jim again?!

I missed his tales about his family and those screensavers that he shared with us.


:'(

after Soviet applied, they scrapped that policy of accepting nude members

How about adding "tank grabbing" ?

The other special attacks do more than 1 type of damage and are kill capable.
GS kills people and destroys bushels.
BR kills people and destroys buildings.


Why not have AB attacks also capture a small amount of land when blasting the enemy? Just land, not money, tech, food, and oil like a full LG. It would add new usefulness to an often overlooked attack type.

I got banned for spamming.

Ignore those noobs,

You weren't around, and I was lonely, and the forums understand me... I'm sorry, Patience, but I'm leaving you for the forums.

On express last set, I turned some noob into a parking lot, destroying 97% of his buildings. When I got a new op to admire my handiwork, I noticed something odd.

The guy still had most of his CS intact. I'd only blown up about 1/3 of what he started with, despite the overall devastation. This can't be right. It almost defeats the purpose of AB'ing someone if they get to keep their CS.

On a short game like express, they might as well give up, but on team based servers they can fully recover with 3.5 days worth of turns if they started with 10k acres.

fluffsucker. awesome.

Hey, it's what I'm here for.
