Sounds awesome.

I wish it was... but it's primarily a lack of sleep that is causing it.

Nathan, did you post the 'what to research?' message to Vox already? It's not in the logs, but I thought you mentioned somewhere that you were sending it... can't find the thread, and can't remember exactly neither (I know, I've been living in a dream state lately, my memory is abandoning me )

I just sent out my revised version reflecting our latest communication with RP. (My plans to send the original version yesterday were disrupted when NYE showed up with some concerns, but it looks like the consensus to go for Republic is still solid.)

Maybe it's best to give Vox 10 gold for contact with ND. They offer it to us for 8, let's be nice for once, they have gotten us a lot, lately.

nathan - I remembered math - it is on the table - but forgot contact with Lux. Diss or I will make sure it is there next turn. Have you heard how they are doing? From everything I have read it doesn't look like they are going to make it.

This comes from a message to Nathan from BH, and to me proves that proves they don't "forget" to include/deliver on time, but are doing purposely....

[notyoueither]

It appears that Nathan did not reply to Beta's enquiry as to why we wanted contact with Lux. I can't say I blame them for 'forgetting'.

They were working on a deal and did not want us to upset it. Without their assurances that we would not, would we have done any different if the roles were reversed?

/edit: oh **** it, just ignore me.

[notyoueither]

FP. I agree, I think that Vox' forgetting coincides with any increase in tensions with us and their giving something of advantage.

They are a difficult neighbour. We must be careful not to ruffle their feathers if we wish them to be as useful as they can be.

[Theseus]

F-ck that, they are incompetent scumbag liars.

Have we lied? Have we "forgotten" agreed upon items?

Let's burn'em.

[Harovan]

Theseus at his best.

[Theseus]

Takes a bow.

Voxes last message reads like I approved the move of Lux. This is not correct. Shiber had called me in the chat, and all I said there is, that this matter needs to be discussed and ratified in the team and that I will post a thread.

Just for correction. I'm still against, and should they have done it, I'd even consider to take the city with a lone warrior and gift it back to Vox.

[nbarclay]

If Lux doesn't pop rush a defender next turn, they won't be able to hold onto the city if we force the issue unless Vox is willing to attack Hack to stop him (and they'd have to win the fight). Possible exception: if Lux could build a city and give it away with troops inside, that would teleport the troops to our continent (I think), but they'd have to get the timing right to complete the deal in time. We need to decide whether, if the city is still size 2 when our next turn comes, we want to try to take Lux out. (And we may also have a diplomatic crisis if Vox or Lux notices the possibility.)

I agree on this matter, (well I should, since I mentioned it earlier ). The least we should is threaten them with it.

[Arrian]

Kill. Vox chose to give away Dissentville. It is no longer Voxian - it's Luxian. We take it, and we KEEP it.

TTA baby! *raises clenched fist*
