Of course it's a trap. Does anyone here really think it's not? It was too easy.

Falc, we're going to build residences here soon and get more people in. Trammel is going to be our non-F13 town where we put the PUGs so if you want to help out there you can. We can swap out teh 25th slot if you need town access as well.

Yeah but what town is he in? It's clear that they have communication issues.

I was beaten quite soundly by Ullstein of Copper Springs. I guess truce is one way.

I think Lorekeep should ask for Ullstein to be kicked immediately. Zero tolerance for this shit.

I sent Ullstein a polite telegram a couple of hours ago after he attacked me letting him know we had a ceasefire and asking him to talk to his town leaders about it. Since then he's attacked 2 or 3 more of us and I haven't had a reply. I'd say he's getting into deserves to be kicked out of his town territory at this point.

If the truce collapsed I wouldn't be the saddest person in the world. I just bought my muzzle loader and have a +12 shooting neckband.
I would have documentation set aside for the Copper allies, though, to make it entirely clear that they are the ones who are the ball lickers. Maybe we can usurp their alliances.

Whitebrit just messaged me. If he attacks tomorrow, I'm going to ask for him to be kicked since he isn't respecting their leadership.

I've just been talking to Ullstein. In his first message he told me that there was nothing about a ceasefire in any of the town forums. So I told him to confirm it with Whitebrit. A few minutes later I got a reply from him telling me that he'd heard back from Whitebrit and was discontinuing his attacks. He also told me that he'd posted on his town forums asking the town leaders what's up.
I'm guessing things are a little chaotic over there right now.

If so, it'd be interesting to see how they reconcile that with kicking High and Cody, and giving us free access to their shops.

DirtyBirdy Today at 1:14 AM Hello, There have been several posts in my forums about there being a ceasefire between our towns...which is odd since I am the leader of my town and have received no such message from you, or anyone else in your town. The simple fact of the matter is that your members attacked us, specifically our builders. So we took that as an invitation for war...a war in which you have no chance of winning. We have obliged your fighters and have done our part in ensuring a steady stream of knock outs on your end. Until I receive an appropriate apology for your towns transgressions there will be no ceasefire. I trust you understand my position, as I do understand yours. Keep in mind that there will be no further relationship between our towns, I would only agree to down grade you from priority target to neutral...meaning that only your duelers and soldiers would be fought through the natural progression of game play. Cheers. DB ---- One thing after another... ---- Lorekeep Today at 1:48 AM You share names with a town that started a conflict that brought yourself and your allies into. We kicked their ass, and they asked for a cease fire. They agreed to our terms and we aren't promoting anymore hostilities til you decided to rock the boat. If WhiteBrit doesn't speak for you and have your best interests in heart, then maybe your two towns shouldn't be acting as if you are one, because the impression I am getting now is that you only share a name and nothing else. Moreover, I'm sure your larger allies who you claim to be in bed with would be happy to know that your smaller alliance is a clusterfuck being put to task by a bunch of upstarts like ourselves. The transgressions are yours, if only because you Coppers are considered one and not individuals. There will be no apology. I'm not interested in your perspective of who wins, because its your opinion what the win condition is. But if you're going to insist on acting as a separate agent from Copper Creek, then I'm going to insist you change your town's name and break off from your alliance with them. Regardless, it seems Whitebrit and his people were making diplomatic decisions for you that they had no authority to. Awesome!

(For those who don't want to go look it up, DirtyBirdy is the founder of Copper Springs.)
So Lorekeep, are you going to talk to WhiteBrit, or are we just going to start raping Copper Springs? My 48 hours is up tonight and it'd be good to know whether I'm killing or being killed.
(edit) If you haven't written back to DB yet, I would tell him that we attacked them because High Lander had spoken on CS's behalf and said that all of the Coppers had declared war on us. And that we've stopped attacking them now because WhiteBrit has again spoken on CS's behalf and negotiated a surrender. I would further inquire whether the Copper Creek people are in fact authorized to speak for CS in this way.

We're going to ask Copper Creek to attack Copper Springs or the deal is off. They are either with us or with them. To WhiteBrit: Lorekeep Today at 1:51 AM I'm sorry but if you weren't speaking for Copper Springs, that changes things quite a bit. I'm going to ask you now to make one decision, which modifies part 4 of the contract: Help us out against Copper Springs, or the deal's off.
Separate negotiation lines are going to be opened with the Eagle's, Legion, and others. If Copper Springs continues to be the aggressor, I want them cut off from their allies. I made a deal with the Coppers, and Dirty doesn't seem to want to see things your way.

YES. Copper civil war! (edit) Lorekeep, ffs try to make it clearer in your posts who you're talking to and what the boundaries between messages are. Maybe use quote tags or something? It looks from your post like you sent the first message to WhiteBrit, when I'm pretty sure you sent it to DB. And I guess the bottom part went to WhiteBrit?

I say smoke Copper Springs. Tell Whitbrit they rejected the deal. If Copper Creek people stay out they get left alone, Copper Springs burns. Also mention to Whitebrit that he may want to distance himself from Springs as a sister town and friend or ally. He should also tell the Eagles about the breakdown and see if they will get off our backs or not.

Because I'm an idiot. >< And sent my response to Whitebrit without sending DB's message. I fixed it and sent WhiteBrit DB's mail.

WhiteBrit Today at 2:05 AM He never read the message I sent him, I have talked to him on msn and all is sorted now, I am sorry for this minor upset, I hope all is ok again now?
I asked to hear it from Dirty. Edit: I take a purposely aggressive tone because I don't care if they launch a war against us. It gives you guys something to do.

My patience is running thin with these guys. One more major fuck-up and I'm done. "1hr 6min for Cody and 1h 12min for HL!"
I've encountered this before. If someone donates money to the Treasury, it looks like the leader can't boot them for 24 hours. Or maybe they just joined the town. So by tomorrow morning if we still have problems...

On my way to copper springs. My cooldown is up at 6:39 server, which is about 4 hours from this post. Let me know when to open fire. I'll be idling in chatzy.

We'll see. I'm on good speaking terms with Legion, one of the mega alliances, but the Eagles have been real quiet.
They have the motto "If you have a problem with one of us, you have a problem with all five." Well what happens if one of them develops a problem with us? Does that make it all their problems, or only until I have a problem with that one?
I've figured out how to isolate and defeat the Eagles... don't have a problem with killing them!

Copper Springs is to be treated as KOS and a separate entity from Copper Creek. DirtyBirdy Today at 2:44 AM lol...all I read was blahblahblah come knock us out some more.
You are in no position to dictate terms...you aren't in a position to do anything but sit there and get knocked the f*ck out every 48hrs.
Your best bet would have been to accept responsibility for this little mess as it would have given you an opportunity to bow out gracefully...now there will be no such option given to you again.
The fact that our towns don't share the same diplomacy doesn't make us unco-ordinated. The fact that you are so defiant makes funny...
Cheers.
