16:50:33 Feb 17th 12 - Mr. Palpy Zonds Multi:

well holding cities is great but i hate, and you probably agree, musical chairs with cities. i was one army far from home and destroying enemy cities, giving no chance for them to recover(if only i was an orc or we had an orc lead the merge) isn't such a bad idea....and i would get at least 10 mil from any mine i hit, regardless of size plus additional plunder meant I was able to make pretty little archmages for you to slaughter(you killed 70k of them at Kremlin-all funded from pks and daf war spoils)...so it has some merits but I think it would only work as an orc(no cost to raize) or a dwarf with cavers(extra gold from blowing up mines) and the cost for any other race to do the same would be prohibitive. I wasn't so effectual against FLL because that little green fellow stalked me early on and stopped me coming west(as well as Binh) but PKS and Daf would have felt some pain from it. But I agree take AND hold is a better strategy, but wreck everything is certainly better, IMHO, than just having you guys following me and retaking cities and throwing a slave or two in to keep the income going.

Come here my b*tches! I am gonna party all night with ya



15:36:59 Feb 18th 12 - heroix (Mr. Unicorn The Berseker):

hah, gg;wp.


10:19:43 Feb 19th 12 - Mr. Jabba The Ugly Hutt:

This is a public warning to Exodus of PKS.


Stay away from our regions. If you take war spoils that are within FLL's territory, we will interpret it as a hostile act, and will proceed to initiate war against you. And I would advise you not to drag your kingdom into this matter.

Once again, stay out of our regions. That means retreating behind Plooper and Simosone. If I see you taking one more city from FLL's area from 6 hours of the date of this message, we will be coming for you. Full stop.


10:43:10 Feb 19th 12 - Jesus Left Toe (Lord Heyzeus The Enlightened):

This is a public warning to All Members of FLL.

Stay away from my cities. If you take war spoils from my cities, i will interpret it as a silly act, and will proceed to slaughter your troops. And i would advise you not to drag your kingdom into this matter. It would be a shame to kill them as well.

Once again, stay away from my cities. This means retreating behind the recovery and simosfour. If i see you attempting to take my one last city from my area from 6 hours of this message, i'll be coming for you. Full stop.


10:52:46 Feb 19th 12 - Tyr (Mr. Tyrminus Prime):

You marched in after we did the blocker busting, and start taking a rather large proportion of the spoils, big talk no actions :)

But meh, we won anyway so.


10:58:00 Feb 19th 12 - Mr. Jabba The Ugly Hutt:

JLT is part of Beothuk, Tyrgalon :) He's making a joke here and is in no position to "slaughter" any of us anyway.... going to be hard taking even a stab at 5 - 8 million level armies you know :P


For Exodus on the other hand, I am dead serious about him stopping from taking our spoils (whether they be razed or not, I don't care). A couple of us are really eager to take him down, and if he provides us the excuse, so be it.


11:03:46 Feb 19th 12 - Tyr (Mr. Tyrminus Prime):

Ahh...man got trolled there :P


11:24:15 Feb 19th 12 - Princess Aisha:

This is a personal oppinion of a Beo member, nothing more;

As era comes to an end and FLL realises they have nothing else to do, since all their enemies are about to die, and since they had more allies then enemies all era, they realised it might be boring now till era end. The Arma was casted but from my oppinion they are now asking what to do till era end?

Why not break one of our NAPs so they do not have to wait for era end and lets not give anyone cities from the enemy? Sure, even though they have worked together with all their allies (did the final push at the same time, so we were in trouble, do not know if it was planned but they did all come at the same time) to break our core, they do not want to share spoils now?

It is obvious that PKS merge broke through Peroscoop, and they will be controlling the north area... and now FLL tells them not to go any further? Why? Because it took FLL days to break my blocker?

Not to mention the teamwork that I was talking about:
(apologies for showing the private message)



Mr. ******** (2/18/2012 2:03:43 AM) GOOD BAD
Damn, that was a quick response with your walls :D
You (2/18/2012 2:47:16 AM)
LOL :)
I just happened to be checking characters that moment :)

Mr. ********* (2/18/2012 12:44:18 PM) GOOD BAD
 FLL  they were facing something like 35 days prep. Incidentally, it was only a 32% chance on the cast so don't let them blame your magic protection ;)



One of their allies CWed my blocker minute before the tick, I put walls right back, and the CW chance was 32%... that gave FLL chance to take the blocker without preping for 35 days, but no, nobody is giving anyone credit for that?

I think that is quite lame and I did not expect such reaction from you TBL, at least not from you.


11:36:02 Feb 19th 12 - Polydeuces (Mr. Marvin The Martian):

Aisha, TBL did not say do not take anything from Beo, they took plenty from you.  He was saying, stay away from our side of the spoils.  Koss was sending small nazgul armies to reach cities in the area that we broke to take the undefended cities from under us.  Many of our players did not get any spoils -all era I might add- yet provided a lot of what had become the successes for our kingdom effectually and indirectly also providing successes for PKS.  For your more powerful merges were fighting us.  However this is not to say PKS does not deserve spoils, they did their part - as did we.  Ergo we just don't want to see players from an allied kingdom take spoils that we deserve as well.


12:19:21 Feb 19th 12 - Mr. Jabba The Ugly Hutt:

I think of all the cities I took this era, the only production city I took was a small 14.4K lumber city. I took about 12 armouries and blockers, thank you very much Beothuk :P I can train a lot of troops from them if I had the money *chuckle* Oh, and a magic city from Kobu that cost me 36 million gold to raze (dull).

Jasmina, you are wrong on your assumptions. I personally want this freaking era to end ASAP! I had planned to go semi inactive once the main Beothuk merges are destroyed, I am tired of looking at the map and tired of a lot of other things. I would never begrudge PKS their fair share of the spoils, and I expressed my appreciation to Daffs for their help in the blocker crushing... it pushed my chances from 75% at the time I slept with full walls to 99% when it got crushed. You don't see me bitching about them taking cities... I, as a matter of fact, welcome their help to get this era concluded as fast as possible :)

However, the reason why I called out Koss expressly, was because of the way he communicated with Random and I during the era, and because of the disgusting way he posted personal messages on the public forums. If he wants certain principles to be applied in our relations, they must be applied in a fair and two-way manner. Sending flying nazguls to take every single damn city, in the areas which we broke through, even when there are many of my chaps who did not get a single proper war spoil all era as Polydeuces said (which include folks like me, Random, Ridthick, Phoneix, etc,) smacked of hypocrisy. In line with the tone he (Koss) set earlier in the era, I decided to "enforce" the fairness of principle a bit in the tone he set earlier.

Koss has now communicated to me that he is backing down. I, on my part, will back down as well. Time to put this long-drawn, exhausting era to an end. Dueling at old Fantasian levels of competitiveness has a tendency to burn out people out.......


12:25:43 Feb 19th 12 - Endless (Lady Xochitl of Chichen Itza):

Jasmina, why don't you stick to flaming peeps on the Nirvana  map where you think you know more then what you do... because on this map you know even less. :)


12:29:51 Feb 19th 12 - Jesus Left Toe (Lord Heyzeus The Enlightened):

I'm in no position to slaughter your armies... :O
Keep them separated and say that to my face.

but true, i was just trolling, i certainly don't have 1 million Axemen hiding anywhere, so don't look for them.


12:35:40 Feb 19th 12 - Endless (Mr. Zaphod Beeblebrox):

can you leave my Ewoks alone JLT? they are hunting Palpy muhahaha ;)


13:07:04 Feb 19th 12 - Jesus Left Toe (Lord Heyzeus The Enlightened):

Hunting Palpy, a feeling i can relate to.
I made my rules clear, don't find my million axemen, don't attack my cities, and your little ewok friends will be just fine.


13:27:12 Feb 19th 12 - Emperor Palpatine With Deathstar:

feels loved...remember it takes a deathstar core to kill me and you might have to borrow city deathstar off pks for that


23:09:33 Feb 19th 12 - Endless (Mr. Zaphod Beeblebrox):

someone has warm feelings for you Palpy .. they kicked an Ewok can you imagine! ;)
btw, who is that masked Princess who left the ship? can't be Leia (a driven, dedicated woman with a forceful personality)


13:01:39 - Ewoks lost a battle against Bbbb from Ms. Heat.

Gongratz on a political victory by napping and make it 1 vs 3 or 20 against 39.

Its truely a great achievement to napfest so that victory is 100% sure at the start of the era and thats its only a matter of time to see how long the gangbang takes.

 


23:11:54 Feb 20th 12 - Endless (Lady Relentless Beat of The Dru):

Actually it was a Lets kill Mike and Jill thing, you know... like the Lets kill Puppy kingdom you were a part of in Starta :p  You would have been invited except you were in Beo ;)  BTW, Mike was actually much more gracious then you in defeat Kobu even knowing he was the main target.


05:50:49 Feb 21st 12 - Mr. Palpy With Big Hammer:


woohoo! One era when I am NOT the main target, just in the kingdom that is. Baby steps, but a step ahead nonetheless...

06:12:31 Feb 21st 12 - Sir Glene Innes:

 Ive had time to reflect and im not going now... btw dont think this is over though julie hehehe.. i dont mind being one of the main targets.. obviously means im doing something right.. but if i see your crew in mant or any other world i decide to play then its on.. noone gets the best of me without me getting my revenge... even if i dont play against u guys for another 20 eras.. anyway great era though extremely stressful... glad its over cheers...


06:27:16 Feb 21st 12 - Endless (Lady Relentless Beat of The Dru):

Sounds like you still don't know why but  I already told  you and I'm not playing repeato gal tonight :p


I'm glad you are not going but if you're still stressed you should definitely take a break...


Moi? my crew? pfft more like I'm just the tagalong for the giggles gal .. I am rarely the mastermind behind troublemaking although I do admit it's a fun pastime


06:45:56 Feb 21st 12 - Sir Glene Innes:

nah simple fact i dont like losing.. i know you guys are gonna break up at eras end but sooner or later you guys will come back together again (in which world i dont know) and ill be there waiting in the wings to get my revenge.. i got a long memory... :)


07:05:01 Feb 21st 12 - Mr. Jabba The Ugly Hutt:

Warning in advance: TL / DR people shouldn't bother here.

Start TL / DR:

Just a few points to note on the "mass NAP" complaint:

1. It was actually us / PKS / Daffs vs Beothuk / Federation. I think people are forgetting about Federation... they had managed to rebuild to a size even bigger than PKS and Daffs, and were tying down EIGHT of our players.

2. PKS was essentially a non factor in this war until nearly at the end. No disrespect meant, but they got killed by Beothuk, spent all their time rebuilding under our defensive cover, wasted time warring Forsaken, and couldn't even stop a Beothuk merge of only about 10 million + OP from raping part of their rebuilt core.

3. The NAPs FLL made were made at the early part. That was when there were about 6 - 7 kingdoms still in the game. The NAP with PKS was done due to tradition - many of the old PKS players are great friends with some of the core FLL players. The NAP with Daffs was made due to geo-strategic reasons - we wanted to avoid the diversion of a second front in order to be able to concentrate all our forces completely northward at Beothuk. The second front did happen nonetheless against my expectations... Federation did a great and "spirited" job  of rebuilding and dragging away valuable resources of ours from the Beothuk front. Nonetheless, Beothuk's failure to make its own alliances, safe for that with Federation later, is solely Beothuk's fault. And we can't be faulted for making alliances early in the era, and, as the era progressed, being able to facilitate their growth to fairly significant strength that could then be applied against Beothuk.

4. And speaking of the Federation front, Beothuk missed the boat on capitalising on our divided forces. There was a fairly long window of opportunity where Beothuk had a decisive power advantage vs one of our blockers that Beothuk did not take up. Also, with 2/5th of our players fighting Federation, the opportunities were all available for Beothuk to either i) have overwhelmed us then, or ii) dealt with their own flanking threat in Daffs. Beothuk failed to do either. We succeeded in destroying the rebuilt Federation and digesting their rebuilt core. And the moment that happened, there was no where else to go but up. The long term game was decided then.

5. Lastly, let me point out that Beothuk had many significant advantages over the rest of us, but somehow, were unable to convert those advantages to a decisive victory.

i) Beothuk's players as a group are better than ours overall;

ii) Beothuk had more active merge leaders and mages then us;

iii) Beothuk's OOP to mid era setup was much better than ours;

iv) Beothuk's supply lines to their merge points was shorter than ours;

v) FLL had so many "weak moment" periods, like a) when our elves were still farming up; or b) when 8 of our players had to completely devote 100% of their resources to fighting Federation.

I already stated at the very beginning of the era to my kingdomates that 80% of the era would be a "buying time" strategy - we had to buy time for our elves to finish their farming - then we had to buy time for our Federation team to finish their job - then we had to buy time to get everyone in place, etc. We were ultimately able to buy the time needed and Beothuk failed to capitalise on the time they had. Such are fortunes of war......

End TL / DR.

Anyway, long story cut short, game is essentially over, except for one or two minor "nuisances" to be moped up :P I would have liked to say it was a great era and well played everyone, but my true feelings are that it was an eff-ing tiring and stressful era, so I don't want to see or talk to you guys anymore :P People are welcome to draw their own conclusion ultimately :) <3 to my old friends and enemies :)


07:10:31 Feb 21st 12 - Zond (Sir Ariolation):

Tbh, you are right. I even said this in our Beo chat many times. As did Kool, problem was, many many many times, people not merging into the merges so we could move :/


07:30:16 Feb 21st 12 - Mr. Palpy With Big Hammer:

what Zond said....btw we only had a cf with feds when they were near dead(in fact tehy told us that themselves) just so they didn't have to worry about us. It was due to the fact they were already defeated, knew it, and were hanging by a thread. Respect to their players though.


I don't really care about the numbers against us, it makes it more fun. i just find NAPs boring and robbing you of potential spoils-and friends are fun to fight against too. Endless and I have been almost always enemies in two different games. It is entertaining.

I came late to this era but I had a lot of fun and it was certainly different with the merge thing and walls. Going through PKS and DAF and then playing cat and mouse with endless,binh,random and peng and others, was certainly fun and I was honoured by the attention our little merge had by some.

Thanks Beo crew, Kobu you were an awesome mage and I learnt a lot from you this era. My maging was pretty disappointing for me. I especially enjoyed in making new friends and seeing how they went like JLT and Legend, who taught me the secret farmer skills I can use later :)) Thanks to zond,jlt,heroix,hermes,legend and Aisha <3 who contributed to the merge and let me lead it-who had the weakest army in the lot.

To the elf mages of Daf, you made some mistakes and missed some opportunities, but you were also very very annoying. Which is a big compliment. To Wulfkin and Galadriel, also respect. If Daf had merged up instead of just sending big solo armies at our weakest flank, they would have had our core weeks ago.


08:52:04 Feb 21st 12 - Jesus Left Toe (Lord Heyzeus The Enlightened):

Why is everyone talking like I'm dead?

nice playing with u too palpy :)


06:01:49 Feb 22nd 12 - Jenna (Ms. Jennaside):

good era guys  hope everyone had fun :)


06:05:56 Feb 22nd 12 - Jenna (Ms. Jennaside):

We lost out ground.
we lost out towns.
we didnt lock our blockers down....

We fought the whole world, 
nothing to put down...

We tried our best.
and failed the quest.
the world  wore  us down....

And you, to whom adversity has dealt the final blow
With smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go
Turn to, and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain
Beo will rise again....


Rise again, rise again, though your heart it be broken
Or life about to end.
No matter what you've lost, be it a home, a love, a friend,
Beo will, rise again

The irony of someone wanting to steal my sciences, but killing the army that is getting my sciences..


epic part, i still have a shit ton more :p

09:37:17 - All troops in Blue Fish have died.

09:37:17 - Blue Fish lost a battle against Steal Science III from Mr. Middle Earth. We lost 5 Farmers, 0 Slingers, 19540 Pony riders, 7245 Illusionists, 2062 Adventurers and 0 peasants in the battle and 0 of our soldiers got injured.

08:22:43 - Our military science got drained by magic!

08:22:43 - Our forestry science got drained by magic!

08:22:43 - Our medicine level got drained by magic!

07:15:21 - Mr. Middle Earth attempted to cast a spell upon us.


20:43:46 Feb 22nd 12 - Mr. Palpy Confused:

I would have survived but that son of my apprentice fooled me and I ended up in the deathstar core. What a horrible way to die.

coming from the player who routinely set up alliances against FW while in Music....lol


05:56:53 Feb 24th 12 - Mr. Nine Tails:

     I would like to apologise for any and all indiscretions against FLL over the course of the era. Like many other players I'm very opinionated and slightly biased when it comes to certain aspects of the game. I could have handled myself and my actions more professionally when it came to communications with one of our nap partners throughout the era.


     So with all due respect to Yoda and any others I offended from FLL I am sorry.


     I would also like to congratulate beothuck on the way their members held off so many on Zeta for the majority of the era. I am under the firm belief that if we hadn't united against them they very well could have been victorious over the rest of Zeta.
