too me that sounds like a premeditated line of thought not something that justifies having friends turn on friends..
Premeditated, I don't think I follow you, if you are trying to say that I wrote that purely because you said what you did, then you have not looked at the time of the mail. I know Daryl has many friends in TLA, I am one of them. Most in TLA have mailed me personally over the past few months asking various questions about Daryl, his tribe, their intentions, and our intentions towards them. I have always said and honestly believed for a long time, that I am trying to work things out with him and that I do not wish for a war to break out, I have asked people not to attack anyone in his tribe, even if people had been attacking Saxon Blade previously. The truth of the matter is that delay after delay meant that plans could be put in place, accounts could be grown, and alliances could be struck with Grind! in that time frame. I will not force anyone to attack someone they do not want to, some (who are his friends) will attack purely because this is a game and a game to attack as outlined in the name, and some will decide they do not want to attack him, or Simon, or someone else for that matter. I simply said that I respect that decision but would like them then to attack someone else in that tribe, perhaps the players who used to be in Grind, or the player who is an unknown.
and yes jv and as you more or less know i am in your house, as to where thats for later..
I know you have said this before, I don't know if I believe you, and frankly the concept is starting to be a bore. I don't really care where you are, if you had the balls to come out and say where you were we could probably have a bit of fun. I am sure it will be revealed in the future, or else you will be rimmed without us even knowing it. Oddly enough, for someone who has nothing to do with Daryl and his tribe, you sure do defend his honour a lot, in fact it would seem the only people you are defending on the externals of late are those within that tribe, sounds a bit like you may be there already.
am i trying too put words into others mouths, no i am not, but when you yourself wish for the game to end and are now using low tactics like that to bring around chaos amongst TLA i can only see what i have always tried to do become a reality.. you have and are creating division within TLA..
Low tactics, this is quite funny really. By asking time and time again for them to come back home, by leaving an open invitation for them to join at any time they wished until a declaration of war was made, by giving a time frame to which point that open invitation would end and that war would be inevitable, and then giving an extra 3 weeks on top of that, seems as though I have been quite fair. True, the war itself will not be terribly fair, but then again we are fighting the tribe that was by far the largest in W29 for quite some time, who declared on us by surprise attack while we were still in a NAP on the other side, so now we are fighting 2 wars on either side. Oddly enough, I suspect Daryl and Penguin will be the best opposition we have had in over a year now.
As far as me creating a division within TLA, that was done by Bloodfest, having been trying to rally for support for his cause against TLA and attempting to bring people over to his tribe to fight against us alongside Grind. Have people had to choose, yes. But I did not have the luxury of being able to choose, my choice had been made for me, as I would not let someone trample on my beloved TLA and her people, big or small.
bloodfest quit rather than attack those he regarded as friends.. thats to be admired..
This has really made me chuckle, as unless Bloodfest was lying to me, and his closest friends in game, he did not quit rather than attacking, he lost his password and the email account he registered on Tribal Wars from, some 3 years ago has since been deleted, thus having no way of getting back in. He said he tried a number of different ways and times to, but then gave up trying. Bloodfest was in fact the person who said he had been planning an attack on TLA for over a year and that I as Duke was the reason for this (where I have not been duke for over a year, the best Duke, in my opinion, in W29 history was duke of TLA a year ago). That being said, like Daryl, I consider Bloodfest a friend and once the world is over I hope to continue to chat with him and keep up if he will me.
So Bert, keep on stirring, it is in fact what you do best, too bad you could not be half as good in game as your mouth is on the externals.
