....or not.
Really, CODE had other plans (which weren't exactly the best kept secret in the world). It took only one quick conversation with Toasty, however, to convince us that perhaps we were about to fight the wrong tribe, so we quickly changed to S-D. What could he say that changed our minds so suddenly? Well, something I genuinely wouldn't except to see coming from him.
^ We were actually considering number 1, for approximately 24 seconds until you mentioned number 2. :icon_rolleyes:
Good luck, though, with number 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. It's funny, when I saw this conversation, I was reminded of a few posts of yours.
....at least they waited for the war to start before deciding that they need help. The irony of the following also put a smile on my face:
...so, their members are so terrible you wouldn't even consider recruiting one, but you'd consider joining their tribe instead? Sense you make not.
Honestly, there was very little "pleading" or whatever you wish to call it from Haul! to get us to help them. The day after I joined CODE, I made the suggestion to war S-D
This planted the seed, if you will, and began the thought of warring S-D within CODE. It wasn't until the 4th of August (and that conversation with Toasty) that we made our final decision, and it was then that we let Haul! know of our decision. Honestly, no-one except Toasty convinced us to war S-D, ironically enough. :icon_razz:
About us not declaring. Well, we assumed since we allowed Toasty to keep his spy in our tribe, that that would be good enough for him. I mean, it's not as if it was a surprise to him, especially after he posted a quote from one of our circulars in his Skype chat yesterday at 15:09 ST which quite clearly stated that we would be "going to war with S-D very soon" (that is an exact quote from our circular, and one which he posted in his Skype chat.)
He reaffirmed his knowledge of us declaring when he was contacted by one of the coalition tribes against us (R I M) earlier today, stating quite clearly that he knew CODE would be attacking S-D and that they "had ways to stop" us. We assumed, as with the Haul! war, that he would like to declare on us prior to us declaring on him.
This whole "it's dishonourable to not declare" doesn't hold up, though. He had plenty of advance warning. We would've told him personally in game, but saw no point since we allowed his spy do that for us. Whether we declare on the PnP forums or not doesn't change the "honour" in it, really.
Anyway, just so we're clear:
CODE rejects your public appeal.
Since statistics are so easily twisted, I will (personally) be keeping track of them a different way. Those of you who prefer the TWStats method, by all means do so. I will keep track of S-D / CODE villages in contested continents, to see how the war is progressing.
Just so there is no more confusion, CODE (publicly) declares war on S-D.
Bonne chance! :icon_wink:

[12:52:33 PM] Toasty: 1. we get a nap with code for at LEAST 1 month.
[12:52:57 PM] Toasty: 2. if i cant get 1. i get a nap with haul and war code.
[12:53:24 PM] Toasty: 3. if i cant get 2. i ask code members to join s-d to give us the upper hand
[12:53:36 PM] Toasty: 4. if i cant get 3. i ask mom to let us join them.
[12:53:50 PM] Toasty: 5. i ask haul to let us join them.
[12:54:06 PM] Toasty: 6. if w cant get any of those we war haul and code at the same time.

Want them added to your side? Shame you really think you need help already.
....at least they waited for the war to start before deciding that they need help. The irony of the following also put a smile on my face:
A tribemember asked me the other day if i would consider recruiting any Haul members if they were to disband.
So far from my experience with their members. I wouldnt even consider one.
...so, their members are so terrible you wouldn't even consider recruiting one, but you'd consider joining their tribe instead? Sense you make not.
