Meh. You should still have a large enough warchest to take that guy on, whereas he was on the business end of some nukular shineys during the Karma War. Even if you don't, we can rain aid on you till the cows come home.

Besides, there is something even simpler we could do about it: Go ask GGA to make him stop and send you reps for his stupidity. Simple, huh? :3

An attack on DMFA is tantamount to an attack on nearly all of Purple (sans Valhalla, who can't execute their Poseidon military responsibilities until the terms of their surrender expire). We no longer have much of a treaty link to GGA, but they were sort of on our side of the fence, and frankly they're in no condition to be throwing their weight around right now.


By the way... I notice that a lot of you still have "Elysium Protectorate" or something similar in your nation descriptions. Um... Elysium disbanded months ago, and its leadership is mostly running TPF now. :animesweat "Pegasus Member", "Poseidon Protectorate", "PEACE Protectorate", or something to that effect would be more appropriate.


EDIT:

Oh, and an update on the aid thing. They are aware of our offer to help but don't have a list of recipients for us just yet. So... um... if you want to help with that, just tuck some "Purple Rebuilding" funds aside somewhere until we get organized.

i like the idea of reperations for stupidity ;). id like to help rebuild purple but i cant, my war chest would have remained un touched but when i heard we were goning to be relitively safe i thought some minor improvemt could be afforded
...then i lost my trades and started leaking money.....even my oldest trade up and left without so much as a " hay stoppin our trade tomarrow". i tried to find other trades but none of the important one responded before i had to be active or be deleted, thus i bled monies.
just once i wish a trade circle who wanted t get the bonuses i do would contact me.

I had to rebuild most of my trades after the war.  Lot of folks jumped ship.

Got more than enough, just let me know where to fire the canons send the aid.  :3

I have lead and pigs, if someone wants to look at what we have as a group and see about finding someone with the missing features for a decent trade circle, I'd be happy to move to that.

Of course, it would lose me my bragging rights of having a trade older than many countries, but that's a sacrifice I'll just have to make.

Until 30 days ago I had trades which were only 5 days less old than my country. But then I redid the whole structure and now its falling apart again  :mowsad

Enjoy the monies!


On the topic of trade problems...

We just launched a new umbrella forum to handle all of PEACE (Poseidon, Pegasus, other Purple stuff...) activities. Once it gets a little populated, it should be a good place to organize some (hopefully) stable trade circles and such. So... everyone mosey on over and sign up! :3

http://www.cnpurpleunity.net/

Once you've registered, post in the Pegasus Sign In area for a mask.

EDIT:

In other news... who the hell is this guy?

Well, thus far our new possible ghost has not responded to hails. If you know this guy, please speak up now. If he goes onto a public ghost list, he'll become an involuntary tech/land farm for all of Purple. :dface

Don't know them.


I'm all for ghost listing them if after 15 or 20 days there is still no response and no one knows who they are.
 

Valynth

I have no idea who he is.

I'm not against new people joining or people being in a state of hibernation since I myself haven't been doing much more than keeping my country up, but I occasionally post here and can be reached for talks, ect.

I don't mind people who sign up and sit on their asses all day. I mean... we're all a bunch of hippies, really. :animesweat I just want to know who they are and how to reach them...

Okay, then. I'll give him a grace period and poke him some more to see if he responds. Unless he does something naughty, of course. So far as I can tell, he hasn't been any fights yet and is making a living through tech trading.


By the way... we can assign up to three leadership slots per alliance with respect to access to the high level Pegasus boards of the new forum. Obviously, llearch and I will take the first two. Would anyone like the last one?

I suppose I should since I'm the third largest now...  Of course being a leader is not exactly what I'd like to do, but if things get exciting I suppose I'd become more active.

Well, you don't have to if it's not something you're comfortable with. It's effectively a high-level foreign affairs liaison position where you rub shoulders with the leaders of other alliances. They have three spots because a lot of alliances are run by a triumvirate rather than a single emperor or president. Between us, llearch and I are usually online enough to keep everyone in the loop. But since we're a hippie anarchist collective with no formal leadership, I figured it would only be fair to put the last slot up for grabs if someone wants it.

There's also mask level below Pegasus Leadership on the forums for regular government members, if you'd prefer to give that a try.

Essentially, as people from DMFA start trickling over onto the Purple forums, the admins need to know how to mask them.


Most of the really important discussion takes place in private IRC channels anyway, mind you...

I've never heard of the guy. I wonder how that person heard of us, as we aren't exactly high on the radar by any means.

I'm torn as to what my fancy title should be. I have half a mind to be a Kierkeguardian, and the other something more draconic. Any suggestions?

Basically the more nukes people drop, the worse the environment gets for the planet as a whole.

There's also some factors with importing certain materials too (coal, lead, uranium...)

Since one of the major patches last year, worsening environment decreases population, thus decreasing income and military capacity. Obviously, global thermonuclear war screws things up for everyone. :animesweat


With respect to the mask thing... I'm just gonna leave llearch and myself on the list for now. If anyone wants an upgrade, give a holler and I'll ask the admins to change your mask.
