We at Junkers clan, sincerely apologize
for the devastation caused to your
country. Pernicious Pufferfish and OMEGA
clan have reached out to us and told us
that we were to bring you down as part
of a past grudge against you. I guess so
the optics didn't seem like they were
the ones attacking you. They said OMEGA
and their allied clans would take us
down if we didn't. I'm sorry, our hands
were tied.

Someone is playing games with you.
Probably the same people who suicided Omega last set and claimed that we told them to do so.
(which is why we helped Omega kill them, because we didn't)

Omega are netters, but won't hesitate to do something for themselves if they need to. They don't get others to do their work for them.

Henrik is an old member of the community, I suggest you reach out to him, he's a good sort.

Josey made it clear he would bounce if he wasn’t allowed to do his thing in peace. This is clearly a douchebag who intentionally drove out another player.

It disgusts me to know the lengths some people will go to wash their hands of misdeeds.

How do we know this isn't some 5D chess move on the clans part?

We did what we were told. We're sorry we offended OMEGA and their masters, Paradigm, last set. We're noobs, and had no idea we were going to be forever harassed if we don't act as their hands and feet. This injustice isn't just towards poor Josey who couldn't find the Cooperation server, but us as well. We just wanted some good action, but some people just have bigger cliques and bully with their numbers.

yep.

🙄

IM SHOCKED

We can't prove it, so fine. However, anyone calling land grabbing someone with 0 defense "suiciding" is nuts.

If you'd been honest that you were landgrabbing for the sake of landgrabbing, and with the intent to drive someone out of the game, sure.
Trying to falsely implicate others for the sake of starting dramas, well that's fluffty.

"with the intent to drive someone out" this is not the truth, there was no such intent on our part

OK, douchebag.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight

Bye Josey. You aren’t the only guy leaving this set. Seems like a few of my tag mates are also throwing in the towel at the end of the round as they are “tired” of the state of affairs here.

Confirmed

Josey, take care of yourself. You left a mark on us on in this game. I appreciate you playing with us all

as of tonight we have lost 4 Mercs players to retirement at the end of this set. I guess RIP Mercs at the end of the month :(

Despite all the back and forth ive participated in, I hate watching the game slowly lose long time players.

With Alliance leaders sitting around on social media trynna build a woke community, what do you expect?
With each passing set, we move further away from the game's original intent and leave the bot hitters to guide the Alliance server future.
It's 2025 and I would ask is to give the Alliance server two sets WITHOUT bots and see how it goes.

So far as I can tell, this isn't a slow loss.
looks like, counting the active player countries via EEStats, I would say at least a 10-20% drop from this set to next?

I don't see you picking up the torch and putting in the time leading an alliance into war? Oh that's right its because you can't.

What is the issue with some alliances grabbing bots and netting if they aren't hitting other players? I have been gone for years so maybe I am missing something.

I ran a war alliance in E2025 and land was an issue, but I am enjoying netting here for a change. If that wasn't an option, I probably wouldn't play. There just isn't the time for that especially with the diminishing player numbers.

Yeah, I have never been involved in wars. You are so good maybe you could teach me.

Sui we need a leader to take the helm and lead us into battle against the evil netters.

Can you lead us into battle before we all retire end of set?

You owe me $11.45 cents! lol

Looking to leave also. I would be happy to lead (again) if we get rid of bots. I made a suggestion to try it for two sets and some Ahole decided to flex the Woke muscle.
Pretty sad when my thought was proven. A personal response from the Ahole to protect the "community".

Suicidal, you've grabbed bots 160 times this set. Apparently you are not SO against them that you won't touch them.

Honest question: In all the years you've played this game, why have you not even once tried netting?

I offered to teach him. lol

Then he blew the teacher up . Ahahahaa bye hi cyref, been a while.

Hi super fly and everyone else were missing lol

Happy belated birthday Bru. I tried calling your home phone on your. I’ll call you this weekend!

Doug

Don’t leave.

I’ll even join. If it’s truly last set for people

Thanks for letting me live in your head. (rent free) I joined a war strat game in 1998. The past few sets have seen the game change in many ways and, with the changes, have seen a drastic decline in players. I have been hoping, after watching recent sets, that there would be an attempt to return the game towards its original concepts.
Last set I hit live countries and accepted 1:1 retals. was a fun set. This set, SOL decided to net. Thought I would roll out after this set but wanted to see the excitement that comes with hitting bots. Yeah, I let bots build me up this set just incase someone went stupid on SOL....then I could have had more fun.
Never had to hide my country. Always used "Suicidal". Why do you hide yours?
I express an opinion on AT and the Aholes have to respond to make it personal.....the same folks that no one wanted to pick them to be on their Elementary School Kickball Team. Grow up.

Going to be honest, I enjoyed taking retals on you when you grabbed us a couple of sets back.
I'm actually not opposed personally to some level of grabbing and retalling, within reason.
IN MY OPINION, it leads to inter clan relations as FA's chat to each other, and induvidual players do so as well via ingame messages and the like.
That said, excessive grabbing does lead to bad blood.

Ironically, when there was large amounts of land trading going back ohhh probably a decade or so now? people got pissy that clans were grabbing and retalling each other in a friendly and relaxed manner.

There are a variety of ways to play the game, and the scores are based on final NW, rather than attacks etc.

Ask an honest question, get a toxic response. Gee whiz i wonder what's wrong with this game. Must be the bots!

Living in your head? lol you aren't that interesting. It took one click here and two on eestats to get your info.

I started playing in the 1900s too. Mehul's description called it a s_t_r_a_t_e_g_y game, with economic marketplay, diplomacy, and fighting your enemies. Tools to use to reach the goal of top ranks, measured in networth. My beef has not been about war, but about vandalism. Attacking just to ruin someone's set, knowing you will be unceremoniously killed, with no other goal. That's a suck-ass way to play the game. and after killing the vandals a few times omg it's boring for the rest of the set. Is that the vandals goal? to bore us?

At least when netting, to do it right, every turn you play is strategic and has implications for your goal right up to and including the last day of the set. Making the most of the game mechanics to attain that nw goal. That competition can be exciting. Too bad you never wanted to try the basic core concept of the game. Netting. You might have enjoyed it.

Country names? Should we have a poll, why do 95% of the players change their names? must be because they're hiding! lol I've had a theme to mine for years. Not hiding. Players that know me find me by my country name nearly every set. I even gave redx a big hint at my name this set, went over his head.
But country names, yeah, it's called a choice.
