Fishing, ya that is a good analogy. Thanks Will. And ya it is just a stupid little game but what else better do you have to do for five minutes after 10:00 at night... Its a cheap distraction that a few folks, not me or GJ, really take all that seriously. But we do enjoy playing the game. That being said, so do a lot of other folks.

To me it wouldn't really matter Peace mode or War mode. But CN is just as much about politics as it is war. If you weren't conspiring, maybe you should have been. Either way it's just a game,

Well, it looks like the dust has settled. The WP is down to ten remaining members, and nobody seems to want to step up as the new official leader. Somebody (Jraenar, I think) suggested we become a "pure" democracy.

The Wolfpack appears to have been distracted by a major war with at least two bigger alliances than us.

I go 1 day without checking my nation and two guys from brown alliance, each with twice my nation strength pummel me into oblivion.

I already was quitting travian, so there's no point in maintaining this either. I was enjoying myself this time around too. ah well.

Hmmm, well...

I too have been attacked by not 2, but 3(!) guys from Brown alliance, all from OTF Alliance. All of them about 2x my nation strength...very brave of them, I thought...

Specific nation names: Bren24_OTF (he won one battle, I won another), BainyOTF (I won both battles), Replicant Nation (he won both battles).

Time to hit 'em back...and likely get blown to oblivion.

Bren and Bainy are the ones that attacked me. It seems we have some predators.

Heh. Bombs away it is, I suppose...

Also, FYI: today I logged in to two new messages. At first I thought I was attacked, but it turns out that the Wombat Protectorate now has two merger offers, one with NATO and one with Atlantis. I sent them both the same response:

Quote:
Hi. Thanks for the offer, but I'm not really in a position to make any decision about it. The Wombat Protectorate is an alliance of members from a small strategy game board; our former leader apparently sneezed wrong, and one of the leaders of WOLFPACK got pissed off, and added him to their ZH list. So, he quit, and we don't exactly have a leader anymore. The rest of the alliance was "saved" by the former members who are into the whole politics thing and have gone off to other alliances that negotiated peace. Those of us that are left are the ones that treat CN as a small diversion, and are not really motivavted to go through the motions required to join most alliances in CN (join a freeboard, maintain minimum activity, etc).

Anyway, long story short: I cannot guarantee that anyone in the Wombat Protectorate would want to satisfy your minimum requirements for membership. Feel free to message any about joining your alliance, but we're all pretty inactive
In case anyone decides they would like to take up either offer, the NATO guy is Zamboanga,
and the Atlantis guy is Virillus, and since I basically told each to go ahead and recruit if they wanted... they'll probably send messages. Or you can message first if interested.

I am going to be declaring on these punks though... yet, I am surprised it took this long for someone to decide to take us on

The Wombat Protectorate had its first interalliance war back on June 29. (As I post this, that was 12-13 pages ago in this thread.)

Our counterattacks appear to be going well so far.

I have reached an agreement with the OTF Alliance members for a cessation of hositilities between our two alliances. As such, I'm making peace with the ones I was at war with, and (part of the terms of the peace) is for the rest of the Wombat Protectorate to declare peace with the OTF Alliance members. I hope this wasn't too presumptuous of me, but I also hope you do make peace with them
