Wait wait what? CTRL couldent afford to keep attacking us, ADA, SET, ACTIVE. Soon as LunaW was finished and our NAP with ACTIVE. Who do you think would have been surrounded, cut off and killed.
Glancing at the past.
you mean odd1out our spy? Im sure we were very willing to attack him. He was closest to BORG, and amrub karam, quit a week after betraying BORG. The only player that did cause a little damage was kingbbb and panchomec had him on a tight leash.
Your hypothesising, this war only turned when GTG hit empty villages, so otherwise youd still be losing, remember that. And kalk borg was fighting 3 wars at the time with NO allied support, its hardly a point to try and excel the efforts of CTRL against us.
In effect, your harboured 4 traitors and rimmed a player who didn't know how to play.
"claps". Recruiting to win didnt exactly put you in a good position with vilbri i hear? just opened up the rest of k46 to everyone else, who will actively fight LOL.
Hey. why don't you put your helmet back on for a moment and listen closely.
We never went to war with Active. And we never attacked them.
Although we could have afforded to keep warring with Borg. We chose not to. Why? Because it wasn't our war. After the events with BDR, we had no reason to keep fighting. The active Luna members were given passage by Dashy to join CTRL.
Why fight something that we really had no stake in?
SET did very little, if anything to CTRL while we were warring Borg. ADA was mainly just taking the hits we were giving them. And Fubar was being slapped around like you guys are now.
We could have EASILY afforded to keep warring Borg, and Dashy knew that. Which is why he asked me for a ceasefire on a daily basis. And then jumped at the opportunity when he was offered an alliance.
When I tried to put stipulations on it. A time limit if one party were to drop the alliance. Cuz i didn't trust you guys. He says "Lets try to think of this not on a timeline basis, but as a permanent thing."
Looks like I was right to be suspicous.
As far as attacking a player surrounded who didn't know how to play. Well, to be quite honest, the only thing that player has different about most players in Borg and DDB is that they're not completely surrounded. As far as how to play.. I'd say he was as good as the rest of you are.
Is everyone who decides to come to CTRL to be in a tribe who's leaders actually care about the tribe, and do something for the tribe, going to be called a traitor?
Technically, I'm a traitor to Muffin. Technically, I'd be one of the biggest traitors there is. Betraying my old tribe, and joining the enemy, only to one day lead that very enemy in a prosperous growth...
Get over the traitor thing. Borg and DDB have betrayed their members. You call spawnie-rose a traitor. She at least tried to fight CTRL.
You've done nothing. NOTHING
Funny mails I get back from a handful of your members tho. A good number of them seem to think as highly of you as I do :lol:
Yea they hit one player that we - myself included - had a bit of fun in fudging stats with - Ocatagonal, and then all momentum completely stopped.
The excuse I recall was something along the lines of... the further west we get the more defensive we become, further east we get the more offensive we become (quote of KW) - duh BDR had the west secured so figures - so they were apparently unable to commit anything against BORG.
Trench war really sucks in a lot of troops eh...
Also recall CTRL backing out of 3 or so joint strikes that I wanted to do on the k43 borderline area, ended up with me personally mailing CTRL players in the area with no results. Guess asking us for free barbs and or inactive BDR was fully okay but when it came to enemy villages - even ones we cleared it was a no go
Walking over... I fail to see how that`s walking over...
CTRL backed out... LOL
Please, the minute I asked BORG for an NAP CTRL offers BORG a no condition NAP then an alliance, all within 5 minutes - when you`re that scared about the possible results of that NAP that I was going to set up then let`s dispense with the bull.
Desperation on your tribe`s part was blatantly obvious. Uh yea what`s this, BDR wouldn`t be guarding your western flank anymore, oh noes!!! Uh oh, BORG`s gonna come for us after Luna gets mopped up...
Yea whatever.
THIS I has to respond to.
The fact that you offered Borg a NAP was seen as a slap in the face.
You chose to continue warring with Borg, when Dashy was in full agreement to call a CF with BDR. You all kept giving the excuse, "no no, the war is turning, thats why they want a CF now. We're winning, blah blah blah."
CTRL drops out of war with Borg. To give BDR the opportunity to do the same. So they could recover from the MASSIVE inactivity issues they suffered, which was obvious from your struggles against CRYPT.
BDR chose to be stupid. And continue to war Borg. CTRL decides to prepare a strike, and help their allies. We strike. We damage. We take 3 players. We slow down. Because we DO have the entire east warring against us too. But we still take villages from Borg. Borg still do nothing against CTRL.
Time passes, Luna incident with DDB and Secluded trying to rally support against Borg, but eventually quitting before that got off the ground. Which was a big thing I had been spending my time on, Dashy knew it too. And he kept telling me if i was going to reject his offer for CF constantly, then to at the very least, not screw with their relationship with DDB.
BDR decide to go behind our backs and offer Borg a CF. CTRL get pissed off, because BDR HAD their chance to take Borgs CF, but chose to reject. We jumped in to help, then they decide to leave their allies high and dry in a war that BDR
chose to continue. Anyone else would have seen that as an extreme slap in the face. Which is how we saw it. We decided to say "screw BDR" we're going to do OUR thing now. Since they want to leave us high and dry, thats the end of that chapter. We offer Borg something better, since we have absolutely no reason to keep warring them. And good reason to stop. BECAUSE IT WASN'T OUR WAR.
Now.. Borg and DDB leaders may be dumb enough to get their member in over their heads and in something so deep they can't possibly climb out of it.
But CTRL knows whats in it's best interest. At the time, our best interest was to focus on the wars we NEEDED to fight. And not the ones our members WANTED to fight. Sure, we could have opened up more fronts, and engaged Borg more heavily. But that would have slowed progress in the east. The wars that were OUR wars. The enemies that declared on us and wanted to fight us. I'm sure i can't expect you to understand.
BDR stopped guarding our western flank when you guys started having trouble with CRYPT. It was clear then that we could only look out for ourselves. And would recieve very little support or assistance from the inactivity that became BDR.
O yes. absolutely. Oh noes!!! Borg is coming for us!! A bunch of family barb hugging war virgins. How scary. We faught Coke, ADA, SET, T-Crew, 3k, Shini, Fubar, and None. With attacks coming from all of them at the same time. Tribes that went to war. Tribes that went to war with Die. something Borg, also, skipped out on.
Yes, O SO afraid of the almighty Borg. And you can clearly see where that fear has gotten you.
You want to know whats worse than a loser? A sore loser. And coming up with excuses for why CTRL is beating you at a war you jumped into, is really just being a bunch of sore losers. GTG and Tuba have been good allies standing alongside us. But GTG didn't war Borg for CTRL. GTG is warring Borg because it's easy, because it's fun, because they've never been in a war before and they share massive borders with Borg. AND because Borg have treated them like crap only offering them an alliance when Borg were planning on warring CTRL. Where was that alliance when GTG was a noname rim tribe? Hmm?
And you expected them to join on your side? Or to remain neutral? What for? That was their best opportunity to slap around the people that have spat in their faces for most of their existance. GG guys. GG.
You wanna know whats worse than a sore loser? Someone who wont admit they played it wrong. The decision to war CTRL was obviously illadvised. since you had yet to cope with your large inactivity problems, or even properly support your members or plan our a proper offensive. When you had months to do so. And had been planning for weeks. Good game Borg.
