Apologies for even letting you guys know there was such as a thing as an unwelcome army on a trove mine 2 squares from one of our cities. I hate to think of how many people have left the game because of that IGM. Anyway, congrats on the peace and don't worry we'll take the next case of bullying to the community... |

Just think about how many are still here because they had something to do over the last 6 months.

| True, for those of us that did not 'jump in' things have been pretty boring since October. |

Thanks Buri, it wasn't your fault. Trove is a wicked mineral, we know that now for sure. Many have yet to discover. . Also thanks to Jorcle, he is most responsible for this peace treaty. |

Rhyagelle went from 6th largest alliance to 60th currently so that should be warning enough not to mess with Trove. Or something else... |

I think that was on the cards from the moment their leader decided to switch sides about a month into the conflict and the people who had actually been doing most of the work left for other Coalition alliances.

It NP at all everyone has misunderstandings. And yes I believe by taking this one to the community and letting lots of people join the coalition, we got rid of many of those pesky bullies. Now lets go drink beer!..... Wait someone just informed we don't drink beer in this game :(

I prefer wine (should have been a trader I guess).

| Do you think that if enough of us petition, we can get Trove renamed to VICtonite. |

The only thing RHY's leader did, other than continuously negotiate in good faith with us, was quit the game (sensibly) because he got married. Those doing "most of the work" were those provoking the war you were so eager to fight. Congratulations on extrapolating our declared relationship with Absa into a war with Consone. You've won regardless of the collateral damage, the least of which is the demise of an alliance called Rhyagelle. |

RHY is not alone is being leaner as the war progressed. FROST went away. WE went from top 10 to about 40 or so in pop.

R.I.P - (RHY) I spent the best part of two years along with Finrod and Yearick building you up from scratch, then on to becoming a top ten alliance. something for which i have naught but pride for. some amongst us may know exactly how good that feels. and yet others, who would scoff at RHY's tragic demise, simply. . never will! now that my friends, is tragic. |

Certainly more tragic than anything Shakespeare could come up with. |

I believe KP is referring to Indeva State (who lead Rhy when they abandoned the people who came to help them) rather than Finrod (who had already quit the game to get married before this all broke out).

Include me in that. Thanks to something to do and a friend who urged me to hang in there, I am still here...though that may not be the best testimonial for your premise as there are probably a few who wish I was not. ------------- |

| RHY deserves no tears. Absantee leaders who rely on their lieutenants. The Lts. do a good job holding things together and even bring in people to help you out... And you repay them by betraying the folks that came to your help. Not rocket science why your most active and effective folks (former Lts.) left with everyone who wants effective leadership... |

If your only intentions are to generously offer something to do to fellas around here, it's obvious you count yourself in the people who have to be amused. Then, if all you want is true entertainement you should seek for the challenge of your gaming life next time. I'd logically advise you to bring it to the Crowalition: there's nothing more exciting than beginning a fight you are not sure to win, i can tell you. And your generosity would certainly prevent many players to leave on both sides. Have confidence and respect your opponent, you know he is as mature and sport as you are and wont anihilate you in the case of your defeat. So why would you hesitate and miss your chance to have some real fun?

Why on earth would we want to fight H?? We have pretty positive relations with them. However as long as members of other alliances try to promote war against our alliance, I can not speak of our relations with those alliances.

| Opinions and words of single players does not reflect opinion of alliance Darkwords, if that were to be case who knows what people on GC would have thought this morning.Anyway i apologize in name of VIC for what Mandarins said. |
Posted By: Darkwords
Date Posted: 23 Mar 2013 at 13:06
Sorry, my sarcasm did not come over in that, its not like we would war against Vic over something like this  as I am sure you know, also I am not even a Crow leader so what I say counts for pretty much nothing in regards to our alliance.

| People still have many emotions over war that is now over and while i tell them that they should concetrate on future rather then past it is not always easy,so i understand when they have angry feelings from time to time but i hope they wont make angry posts, especialy using names of neutral alliances. |

Soo, no risk is fun? might aswell not fight at all if you cant lose, but that seems the way the illy community want things, farmville with laser tag... -------------

Sloter is right, all my apologises. I shouldn't have used such picture. Be sure that i absolutely dont want to see H? facing the alliances of Crows, other than during sport events like tourneys. Again, im sorry, and only hope for peace to come back for all again and to last.

Sorry Absa, I imagine these "surrenders" are not the cheap and painless events implied by these posts. I wish my actions could have changed things but I see now my actions were always irrelevant in this conflict. You got hit by a train and didn't see it coming and no matter how many bodies were thrown in the way you couldn't stop that train. |

No worries, Salararius. It is what it is, and we're moving forward. I very much appreciate the voices in this thread that keep an even keel. Kudos.
