Does someone need a hug? (Little Upsilon)

Good day,

I have been out of town for the past week and until then have been striving to compete for #1 in LU. Upon my return, I find my slave country of AwesomeRuins is under attack by Raji and Last of a Dying Breed. I have no explanation from these two and from my understanding have not taken any offensive towards them nor others in the game.
War starts in 5 hours approximately.

They are equipped with nuclear weapons and an extensive air force which I will not be able to withstand. I do not mean to bitch and gripe, but unfortunately I do have other work and duties to attend to than to fight an unexplained 1 on 2 war with these pricks.

I understand that my country has no war protection, but if I had wanted to fight wars continually and not actually care about understanding the rating and financial dynamics of the game, I would have started a country on FB and not LU.

It's not the war so much that upsets me, i

They changed the names of the countries....

Let me know what the new names are and if they are worth the effort I will gladly revenge the poor people of AwesomeRuins.

I understand your anger. I was the focal point of such an attack a week ago.

Some just want to take over rich countries and turn them into profit regardless or just annoy the hell out of the players.

New names = Bj Raji and Darwin.

Little Upsilon
has become a hippie world.
Die, you hippies, die.

I know of no hippies with a name like Chuck Steak. I do know assholes called Ares and Siva. Take the country, if there is anything left by the time you get to it.

Deimo's Response to me:

Sorry, but keep in mind that this is a game, and while you may enjoy the economic side of the game, I enjoy the military side of the game. Suggestions: a) Join a fed with defense b) Defend yourself

(Angry) RESPONSE:

Yes, understood this is a game. Perhaps if you like the military side, you do understand that there is a world for that reason...or are you too pussy to go there and fight?

And maybe you should develop the proper communications if you truly want to play a game...challenge someone to a duel before scoping out countries that you know you can take. With nukes, and an air force you will take AwesomeRuins.

If you wanted a challenge or to truly "play the military aspect of the game," why didn't you challenge me one-on-one? Why must you gang up with one of your buddies, not man enough?

I'm up for a military challenge, and would have no p

Let me guess. You have 200k MIBs and no real defenses because you wanted to level up and get the GC rewards and be at the top of the boards? It doesn't matter what planet you are on, there is NO safe planet. There are reasons that people 'waste' all that money, and burden their governments with defense spending. All you've done is set yourself up as a target.

You don't like the war part of the game? Then spend GC on WP or go play Monopoly.

I do play and fight on FB.

I am not interested in waiting around for you to set up a c3 for a c3 war.

I did challenge you one on one, I just used more than one country from my empire to dec on you.

Many players raid and strip countries to gain gold coins. For those of us who do not use visas often, this can be a way to pay for the account fees. Did you see what Jason did last week to a large empire on Lacerta?

Lulz. Don't be mad because you suck, or because you got caught with your pants down.


Also,
+1 cool points to BC. Good post.

"or are you too pussy to go there and fight?"

do i have to take c3's on fb to kick some ass again?

just give me the word and i'll gladly kick ur ass with some c3's.

Thanks L3, but we've been there and done enough of that for this month.

Also, also...

It's a common misconception that FB is the war world.

FB hasn't been a war world for years. It was barely a war world when I started playing. There are far to few players on it for it to be a war world.

actually wild, fb is the safest place most of the time. irony at its best.

FB is the only world I ever lost a country on ;_; Of course, I wasn't in a fed on FB. But then again I wasn't in a fed on any worlds other than LU and never got attacked on those...

They're right though. If wars weren't meant to be fought there wouldn't be armies.

...

Even though blowing up 100 forts is as much fun as a root canal.

I have been away for a few days. I had seen no challenge, no messages, only a declaration of war from Ares and Deimos (same person apparently) within minutes.

And like I told this fellow...no, I am not on simcountry 24 hours a day reading about your virtual conquests and exploits...really don't care...

The country he is about to destroy has kept me paying my fees as well, not my visa mind you. I guess that is why I am pissed off, as I used it for revenue for 9 months and he will burn off whatever assets are left within a couple of days. What a waste in my opinion, as there are smarter ways to do things...

Yes...maybe I should buy a few more forts in order to prolong his pathetic enjoyment...

Or, after he takes it, buy it back from him. It's kind of the pussy thing to do, but since you have no army, you don't have many options. Ares is a generous fellow, and like he says, he's only doing it to make GC himself.

Buy it back from him, build your defenses, join a fed, and make the GC back. Otherwise he'll just sell it to someone else. Who knows, I may even put an offer in.

Anyways, you're going to learn a lesson one way or another. You just need to figure out how much you want that lesson to cost you.

Little Upsilon is the fast planet. That makes it the best planet to build up or take assets and liquidate them.

Little Upsilon is the most crowded planet. The targets are limited. On White Giant someone can easily find dozens of inactive countries. On LU most fully inactive countries are in debt over $10T to $20T. From the statement "I have been out of town for the past week" we can assume that all of your empire was showing "active in the last month". If you wait all month for a country to stop showing "active in the last month" someone else will have already taken it.

Calling them pricks is un-called for. Attacking the more inactive players is as polite as someone playing an internet war game can be. Name calling is generally not a good way to avoid a war in Simcountry.

FYI I resent it when the term "pathetic" is used as an insult. People on LU with no army trying to play the economi

Clearly, Chuck Steak is not inactive.

Therefore, I expect Ares to not take any military action against Chuck.

The past actions by some, misled players of attacking other active players are not acceptable. It's cowardly.

So I'm not allowed to attack active players then Kevin? Do I have to bait him on the forum to get your holy permission? Can I attack him because he called me a pussy and a prick? Were our attacks on Hezy unwarranted because he is an active player?

Are you kidding me?

There's this thing from the Catholic Church called Seven Deadly Sins and Seven Heavenly Virtues. I wonder what their purpose in society is. The other religions and "philosophies of life" are just copy-cats, specially those Cardinal Virtues.

I wonder how a society regulates itself and what it aims for. Hmmmm... Those things are very difficult to see in one that is WITHIN Dunbar's number.

No, I'm not kidding.

There is no comparison between Chuck and Hezy.

I hope you will reconsider taking any action against AwesomeRuins. Feel free to message me or log-in to IRC if you would like to discuss the issue.

So you're deciding to try to police just me right now while there is a world full of player raiding each other? Really.

If you want to defend him, put him in Valde.

well i hate to say it,but since the fall of SNA, Valde and LDI practically control LU.
