Stating that you're acting like a child and calling out someone for their age are two different things.
Whether he's 13 or not has nothing to do with anything, as this is a game where people of all ages are allowed to play. Your message just proves his point about being childish and it has no place here.

If each alliance was a movie:

10. True Fear: STAR WARS... the phantom menace. All the makings of a great movie. Action. Adventure. Ominous foreshadowing. All that and..then the whole thing ends up being about jarjarbinks and some whiny kid.
9&8 . : Four Horsemen et al: Lawrence of Arabia. Out there in the desert of the rim. The power of omar sharif, the majesty of peter o'toole, and all I can think of it is the damn turkish prison bit.
7. Lost Boys: Wizard of Oz.I bet you thought I was going to talk about an alliance lacking intelligence, courage, and a heart. You'd be wrong. It's about an alliance being lost, and not in kansas anymore.
6. Nocturnous: On the Waterfront. Had a good early run. Could of been a contender. Now, just a palooka waiting for it all to end.
5. Death Before Dishonor: Debbie Does Dallas. And not just cuz the initials work out so well. They've taken it in every available orifice, and still seem ready for more. Insatiable Id, or gross and icky bedsheets of doomity doom doom- you decide
4. Transient Drifters: Dr Strangelove. Ostensibly a comedy, but in reality, a satire on the warlike mentality and the effects of fluoride and impure bodily fluids.
3. TF-LB: Harold and Maude. An older mature alliance takes a younger one to its bossom and they go off on a grand frolic. All the good stuff must be offscreen, but maybe that's for the best. I mean, she's like 80 or something, dude.
2. Hydra's Hooligans: Jaws. When you take them on, you have to know this: You're going to need a bigger boat.
1. Non sunt dii: The Godfather. A dissertation on the corrupting influence of power and the triumph of viciousness over diplomacy. Also, an analysis of the importance of speaking without cotton balls in one's jowels.

Honestly, I don't like Adz any more than the rest of you, but even in a thread called 'Pass the salt?' this all seems a little excessive. Also, merges and coalitions shouldn't matter. None of that 'you're 4 alliances because you can't win on a 1 vs 1'. That's kind of the point of there being diplomacy in the game. How they decide to pull it off when it comes to WWs is their concern.

Last night I called NSD out BY NAME...I said any old school NSD, just not adz. I guess if they are straight up too chicken **** to come out here, adz is just gonna have to take all the heat. That's not on us, that's on them.

DBD compared to a porn film and we're still in bed with fewer other alliances than anyone here :rolleyes:

Though I'm sure Ben got a little excited at the thought of sharing such a film with me ;)

I hope "lightbulb head" isn't a commentary on the container for the man's other brain.

What is the point of arguing with you? In your mind your always right and when your clearly wrong you change the subject or insult the player that stated the fact. It's a shame were too far away to rim you. But I'm pretty sure even that wouldn't shut you up.

Most in NSD are way above replying to a cretin like you James, therefore the job is left to me xD xD
But sss is right, there is no point to arguing with you, facts are that you have no pull in this world, the only reason you chat **** over here to us is because we're too far to rim you.

Maybe do something amazing, take an enemy city by yourself? Do something that shows you're a decent player. Then and ONLY then come chatting on forums.

OK i think it's time i stepped in here, as this is no longer entertaining and just bugs me now. YOU CANNOT INSULT PEOPLE DUE TO THEIR AGE. Acting like a child sure, but not their actual age. If this line of insults continues, infractions will be handed out.

So someone wants to call out a nsd member eh?

Here's the deal jimmy boy, you're just irrelevant here. It's not really worth coming on here and blah blah blah ing it but I'll post this one longer post then step out for awhile again.

Let's clean up the facts here. I've read we're getting hit on all sides, completely untrue as o56 has no action in it and hasn't for like 3-4 months. It was wasted by nsd and that was that. There's no incursions from o46 or anywhere west and that is because tf-tlb weren't ever here on this server to wage a serious war. Dbd has fought and fought and respect is deserved for what they've managed to survive but it's not exactly like OMG dbd is hitting us and holy cow what are we gonna do? The fighting is the same old fighting in o45 between the old epi players who are now nsd.

This is the problem with this server. There's too many coalitions here to make this game the way it was intended to play in my opinion. When you pact up with everyone and hold hands people just leave.

Statistics would show but any stat anywhere that epi fought very well for a longtime and some other groups did too but the nsd threat with the ops we ran devasted whole sections of the map and what needed to be taken. As evidenced in our overall record of cities taken versus cities lost. We flat out hands down we're the best aggressive alliance on this server and if we were doing big ops you'd all be begging for us to stop as you all have before (the ones within range).

Talking crap after months of getting wasted by us now that we're so close to the end game is like beyond ridiculous.

We knew we had to merge to have numbers to compete in wws so we did. We knew we'd have to thicken our core and we knew we'd have to become glorified summers to get way ahead in prep because we knew each other competitor had pacts and coalitions.

We never cared to pact with anyone and we never did. It's a war game and we always preferred to play aggressively. we we're very careful with whom we recruited and we waited until we absolutely had to, to merge.

If the games end was about cities taken versus cities lost or frankly any statistic on this server relating to fighting it would already have been handed to us and rightfully so because we earned our stats by demolishing anyone in our way.

Sadly the endgame is about resources and favor and other things that favor the builder simmer type of player.

If we do win then the story will be well they won after spanking everyone around so I guess they deserved it. If it's hh it'll be because they got more resources from another alliance in diplomacy and they fought well, if it's dbd it'll be because they stuck it out defended when times were tough and got more resources before we did. On the other hand if it's tlb/tf it'll be because diplomatically they convinced entire alliances to build cities for them, herded everyone into s big coalition then shipped resources from several oceans to win. It won't have anything to do with what they've done fighting wise and they will without a doubt burn or mess over nearly 100 players that thought they might've had a shot to win.

Winning is winning so no matter how you do it, you've done it but the best fighters and most aggressive players are what make grepolis fun. I frankly think tlb and the founders there are mostly responsible for making this server not war friendly and if it were solely up to me, I'd never award victory to an alliance that cause so many good fighters to leave because they just wouldn't fight back and made people bored.


Anywho that's just my 2 cents, may the most prepared and best plan go forward as regardless of who gets it done they in fact did it so you gotta give them that.


After all the dust settles though, I'd much rather converse with players in game and on externals that actually know how to play the game and fight well.

I think that's s feeling that's shared by most top players fighters.

Best of luck to all but my money is on us or hh to win it honestly.

Also; when did using asterisks become replacement for cursing? Is it even a replacement, since we know what you've wrote, given context?

Adz... eat a snickers. You're not you when you're hungry.
