ATTN: I don't post often, but when I do, I mean it.

Will do gunther. :-)

Idea. This is just a off the top idea that could be fun and could help newer players learn the war game a bit. And when I say it "could" be fun I mean for the player defending and the player or players attacking.

This would required the time and funds of vet player with an empire to set up. It works quite simply.

Find a vet or player that is willing to set up a country in their empire specifically for the purpose of being attacked by a newer war player or players. This country would be away from their empire and set up as a challenge country to be taken in war. This vet would set up all defenses, weapons, ammo etc etc. Setting up like they would set up their own main.

That player would post in the forums that the country is ready for war and have players "sign up" to attack this country. The vet would choose either by themselves or the security council vote for that planet. Once the attacking player or players

Two days running, Andy, and still no answer to my question above. It's a simple question. If there is no wrongdoing, there should be no avoidance to answer. I await your reply.

Come on gregwalken.
I saw this message and thought the question must be about your country going down the drain and you don't know why.

We have a nice long weekend and our offices are closed. I just happened to be here for a short while.

Being a moderator is no advantage, it costs time and it is a commitment someone takes upon himself.
W3C will decide if it wants a moderator, how many, when it starts and when it ends and we are grateful to the players who in the past years helped us by moderating the chat and forum.

We do not care who the moderator is, old player, returning player, rich or poor. We are happy he is moderating and as long as this is taking place, we are OK with it.

Wild eyes offered to be a moderator and answered our questions. we were looking for a moderator and had no reasons to turn her down.
There was no one else offering it.

This is no special relation. We do not discuss any s

Anyone happen to notice that this "WildEyes" has the exact same picture as "BrokenAmbitions" had in 2010? Coincidence? Maybe or maybe not.

Er, that is BrokenAmbitions. I guess people forget.

Be very careful greggwalken what you put here.
Especially when you do not know.
we have no tolerance to lies and unsubstantiated nonsense when it is about our actions.

We have never talked to any player on MSN.

I just summed up today all the possibilities for communication between W3C and players.

We don't know if Wild Eyes is the same player today as it was before and we really don't care.

I did not count one offer from a player who cheated on us before.
No other offers. Maybe tom had some before. I don't know of.

What is your problems here? Someone like the name Wildeyes way back in the day and when the first Wild left, this one got the name because she liked it. Big deal! This Wild is the same from when she got the name from the first Wild. Sheesh Drop it already. Who cares who Wildeyes is? It's a player. Get over it.

Not being mean, just tired of hearing this same ole "OMG, where is your birth certificate for verification?" crap.

If you think someone is a multi report it to the gm's and be done with it already.

Redman, I like your challenge idea. It might take a fair amount of promotion or prize money to convince someone to be the defender.

re:LyinEyes. She/he bothers me because she/he is not just using the same name that someone else used to have, but is actually pretending to have been that person. She claims to have written the forum posts of the other person, claims to have fought with the same players, to have had the same victories, the same conflicts. In short, she's claiming someone else's reputation, that of one of the game's best former players. And since her own words and actions are of much lower quality than the original's, she is damaging that reputation.

There is one way to establish whether the current Wildeyes is the original Wildeyes or not.

Years ago, the original Wildeyes was (briefly, for a few weeks) a member of WGC. I am one of a very few people who know what ingame name she was using at the time (she was swapping names regularly at that point). If the current Wildeyes can tell me what that was, then I'm prepared to believe she is not an 'imposter', as some people are claiming.

If Jojo wants me to send him the name in advance, so that he can act as an independent adjudicator, I'm more than willing to do so. Although I doubt anyone believes that I would want to cheat this one. The only way this could be cheated is if Josias or Serpent knew the name and decide to help an imposter continue the charade, but I'm not sure they did know it, her stay was so brief, and it was well before the mob / WGC war ...

Hugs and respect

I was never in WGC

i'm at a loss as to what i was doing at the particular time Jo is talking about, much less know the ranks of WGC

josias
ttfn

You are exactly on point Jo! I also know a name (may be the same one) that would tell if this person calling themselves Wildeyes is the true Wildeyes.

As I stated above, I too served with the 'real' Wildeyes, and the one parading around now is not the same person.

The entire thing about the name isn't just about someone using the name; as Jojo said, they are taking credit for some very insightful and skilled writings of a revered veteran player.

Josias, I can confirm that you were never in WGC. Unless you were the original Wildeyes ...

I never suggested you were in our fed, although I know you had very friendly relations IRL with at least one of our members. I said that you may know which name Wildeyes was using at the time she was a member of WGC. She may have told you that she had joined our fed, and you may remember which name she was using at the time.

Or maybe not ...

I'm interested to see if Wildeyes responds to this. She and I had a conversation at the time about the name she was using, which I still have on record. She would also remember the name that Christopher knows, and both together would be pretty conclusive.

If she is the real deal, she has it in her power to clear up the suspicion very easily. If she doesn't, I'm sure most of us will draw our own conclusions from that ...

Hugs and r

i think what i meant to say, is that i'm not sure time frame we are talking about. because their was a point i just stopped keeping track.

so i don't know the answer.

I'm pretty sure BrokenAmbitions isn't WildEyes, but like I don't really care.

The name change was so long ago that I don't even remember why I'm pretty sure of this.

Will the madness ever stop? Sigh.

Those of us who played at the time of WildEyes's heyday and knew her at all will know if BA or the current Wildeyes are the same people.
To those who didn't know her it doesnt really matter.

As for her reputation, if you knew Petra Arkanian and believe her to be different from Jess, then Petra's reputation cannot be sullied, only Jess comes out looking foolish.
If you think the two are the same, then there is no reputation for you see sullied.

Either way, the only consideration really is if anyone gains unfair advantage from such actions.

Well, Crafty, you put it all in practical terms very well.

It still bugs me, and I'm not sure why. I was an antagonist of the real WildEyes, after all. I guess that seeing someone lying out of her teeth just seems wrong to me in a way I can't reduce to anything simpler.

BrokenAmbitions a.k.a. Wildeyes still has a challenge that she has not been willing to address.

We are waiting.............

And maybe she never will, those who stay in secret and attack are the ones who will always win.

Back on topic, it would be really cool if there was a war game function the admins were willing to implement. Allow players to act out various 'scenarios' to get the feel of the war game and boost their confidence (without actually risking the loss of their countries - good for new players).

It would also allow rivals the opportunity to settle their differences, and if someone wasn't happy with the way something panned out... they could go to war for real.

Wouldn't that be the "war missions" already mentioned, but not implemented?

Don't waste your time waiting for an answer from the current Wild to the challenge, as it will never be answered.

We know the answer, as jojo stated above. Besides brokenAmbitions has already admitted to being the current WildEyes or vice versa. So no question that the current Wild DID go by the name Broken Ambitions. She has said so numerous times, had the same countries, types the same, same pictures. No BIGGIE! I don't know why Orbiter is being so CLUELESS or "dumb" on the question. OH WAIT! he is clueless and dumb. Or maybe he has hung around Wild/BA for so long and finally all that weed smoking has killed brain cells!!! It is rather laughable. And, really it doesn't matter. We KNOW this Wild is not the creator of the leaving guide or the "game great" of old. But if it feeds his/her delusions to be so, let's let him/her have their fun. It IS just a game, after all. Up to each individual player what
