I had CV all over my left side, GX all over my right side. Surrounded by enemys all over me. I was the only UNSFer in the top 15 for that K. No support from UNSF except good luck. I was the 2 tribes common enemy and i had no illusions as to what what was gonna go down. Between a rock and a hard place, stood no chance, any of you would of done the same.
Like when u got tired of fighting XL u decided to merge hmmmmmmmm????
hmmm ... random jibberish from your lips ... BEAUTIFUL!
No, actually nothing like when I decided to join
NOT merge with XL. If you perhaps had a clue about previous wars and their outcomes you might acutally be aware of the particulars. Regardless, you are entititled to your opinion and are free to take whatever actions you choose.
However, to distinguish the differences between you and I and the situation which you brought up; me going to XL; let me start here.
TW (my previous tribe) was surrounded by XL from day one. We had XL and family on our border on k15, k25, k26, k17. We stood very little to any chance of actually winning our war. We acknowledged this very early in the battle;
HOWEVER still decided to fight on and defend our tribe. Its a little thing called loyalty. Perhaps you haven't heard of it, but I entreat you to learn a lesson or two from others that have it.
Not that this needs to be rehashed again, but apparently since you like to drudge up the far distant past, let me give you or the community ANOTHER history lesson.
XL declared war on TW. TW got shafted by their long standing allies DBD ... wait did that stand for death before dishonor? Because honestly, DBD showed very very little honor while abandoning their long standing ally TW in this war. Either way, personal opinions and geo-politics aside. We as TW were surrounded on three sides during our war ... but you didn't see any TW member fleeing when war was declared. In fact, none of us moved on to other tribes until such time that TW as an entity was dead.
By this I mean, our duke was inactive for the entire war, me, as baron, took up the reigns, along with queen feril ( i still love her death) and plodded on as best we could without a duke. We fought a tribal family that outnumbered us 11 to 1 in points and lasted for 5 months, giving them hell on earth for each and every day.
When our ranks had been taken down to only 4 or 5 members, due to inactivity, of course I had no option but to try and save my tribemembers' world 4 experiences. I guess as you were but a peon in DBD you had no clue, but I managed to secure a few of my members entrance into DBD ... oscarius, and wolfhawk. Do you remember them? Probably not because you did shit for nothing for dbd. How do I know? Well lets just say I know lots that goes on in this world.
The other's I secured entrance into XL. Unaware of the circumstances behind this I don't fault you, but the condition of my tribemate's survival was soley on my joining XL. I did not exactly want to join my enemy, however, as I think any good and honorable leader would do; I sacrificed my own wants and wishes for the best interests of my tribemates.
Fault me if you will. But
I DID NOT leave my tribe when we were still a functioning unit. I only left once everyone I had asked to be put on a safe list and protected until they left and found a new home, actually found such a place.
YOU, however, fled at the outset of war because you feared for you existence. GX and CV surrounding you. BOOOOO HOOOO! Cry me a goddamn river. Grow a set of balls, learn how to defend your villages and perhaps, just maybe, don't noble mr inactive crazy fox for 1/2 of your points?
