Hmm, you've taken alot more than 1 or 2 ex Kraken's, don't forget that they are still our enemies
This will definitely not be a merge. We've recruited the top two or three members out of 18 in !TL$!. We've always taken the best players from our enemies, but have no intention of taking them all - except village by village of course.

It's most informative to divide those 19 (I'll assume the count) into two, or maybe three groups.
Group one came over en masse in the first day or two of the war when KRAK-R, who had ties of friendship with us, decided they didn't want to follow the misguided leaders of Kraken, dissolved Kraken's western academy, and switched sides. Some of those were cream and are still around, while some were not and have since been eaten.
Group two came over one or two at a time later, as they realized (like also the best members of *XxxX*, +LOW+, and other tribes in the area) that CBTF is the best. (We're also very good looking, intelligent and modest.) They are also cream in my opinion, as shown by their successes both before and after, and were brought in selectively.
Group three - or two and a half if you prefer - have also been brought in selectively and are the best of what remained after the final, total collapse of Kraken. Those are the people whom I understood to be described inaccurately as a "merge" in the post above. They, like group two (and group one for that matter), have realized that we are the best. We have also accepted that they are the good warriors, not least because they have held out against us (and THE of course....) for so long while their non-cream counterparts have shrunk or been destroyed, and even after being abandoned by multiple sets of so-called leaders. They were no longer a threat to us, and we are stronger with them as they are also stronger with us. Logically, we brought them into the tribe.
I'm sure the rest of the remnants of Kraken would come over if they could; but they don't cut the mustard. For that matter, if CBTF wanted just points as suggested above, we would have kept players around whom we have long since nobled out. Speaking as our rules writer and discipline enforcer, I can assure you that hasn't been the case!

They held out against us because we hadn't gotten around to hitting them yet. I haven't quite figured out the code for "infinite nukes" or "infinite nobles" yet, so we're having to take over K23 the old-fashioned way. You can call it what you like, but your tribe still recruited 19 members of an enemy of ours. :icon_neutral:
I also expected a little more courtesy from you guys since our declaration on Kraken bailed CBTF out of a situation that would have been their demise.
uhm, your also = the lenghtier paragrafe that came before it.
Our demise heh.. Oh yee of lil faith...
For the record AK an Jp this was our (CBTF's) war before it was THE's war, I can even go back and dig up the ole posts to give you exact times of the war. If you would like my humble opinion about it, THE only pounced on Kraken after they declared on us for there own advantages.. Don't play it out like you did it for CBTF cause thats honestly not the case.. I could believe you if you said oh shoot we were just about to declare on them an now there gonna be CBTF's refugees, do your magic jp post our war decloration an make it out like were CBTF's saviors..
Also I'd like to note they are refugee's from our war that came before yours, it just so happened you were ready at the same time and they beat you to it?? So please don't come here an make it out like they were yours from the get go when thats honeslty not the case!
We were planning on declaring war on Kraken family for weeks prior to their declaration on you. In fact, they declared after we had started our initial attacks on them, because the land time for those attacks ws going to be the same time we declared. You're correct that we didn't declare to save you, or bail you out on anything, I never said that was a reason behind our declaration. It is what happened though... EreVos and Kraken probably (and I say probably only because we'll never be able to prove it) would have steamrolled through you guys.
Also, I'd like to note that CBTF didn't declare war on Kraken, so you can't really call them your refugees. THE -did- declare war on them, and were nobling them steadily. In fact, the day before your stage 3 refugee recruitment spree, we had taken over dominance of K23.
THE didn't recruit a single ex-Kraken member. Ever. If we had, we would have contacted you first as a show of respect.
Anyway, I hope you respond to JP's mail to you in-game so we can work this out.
