I would not read it that way yet. OCT_X has been very busy lately and has stepped down temporarily as a C3C ISDG Consul, and let Kloreep take the reigns.

He has all kinds of honors classes at school and is struggling right now with the end of the school year.

Lets see what the answer is. Hard to tell if they are actually considering it, OR OCT_X has just been to busy to post and comment on my letter.

I guess we will see.

quote: Hey Oct, Just a quick note. Team Monkey have been planing an assault on the main forum for some time now. Just to liven it up a bit, and generate a bit of fun. We have a problem however, that some of our tongue-in-cheek posts wont be showing team Python in their best light. Some in our team fear that we will upset your membership and ruin any chance of you taking our offer seriously. So... We are requesting that you provide some indication on how your discussion is going with our offer in the next 24 hours. After that ... the poo starts flinging. Of course, it is hoped that Python will see our posts for what they truly are ... just pure fun at your team expense And that it wont effect the serious nature of our offer. But, if it is your opinion that your team is seriously considering it, and there is a possibility that it is accepted, and that our main forum posts would hurt any chance it had, then we will not go ahead. Regards Hot_Enamel of Team Monkey

Yup - me thinks they are simply stalling.

If so - they are about to get a barrage on the public relations front. But they can't say we didn't warn them.....

quote: Hot_Enamel, While we are pleasently suprised by Team Monkey's renewed offer in light of recent events, we must reject. We will not abandon CoD, as we know they will not abandon us. We feel turning on them would be a most despicable thing to do, worse than what was admitedly a not-so-honorable thing we did to you. In regard to the upcoming propoganda wars, God knows I've been looking for some excitment in this game. However, I ask one thing - refrain from making anything personal. Though I know it's all in good fun, some people do take these things seriously. Just keep it all aimed at the team in general, and there shouldn't be a problem, as well do the same thing. ~Octavian the Tenth Supreme Prime Minister for life, and all around useless fat guy, The Republic of the Castle of Loimbard.

My reply

quote: We expected as much.. However it is still quite entertaining for us to receive correspondence from both you and CoD. There are considerable differences between what you both say your alliance is. [big hint] As a fellow warrior, I feel we should warn you to ensure your borders are well fortified. [/big hint] We are well aware of the risk of someone taking offense. All of our posts will be very "direct" and hopefully very damaging to puthon & CoD diplomatically. But certainly never directed to one single person. Hopefully most we see it as the harmless fun as it intended. Let the poo flinging begin

Ah well it was worth a try.

We still need to get a global letter out to the other continent asking for assistance.

And keep cranking the NM's and cats.

And get monkey island secure.

Last ditch effort with Python - for what it is worth. I wanted to include a threat that if they did not go fo it - we hit them. But I suspect that won't mean much to them, given the trust they have placed in CoD.

This note sent via e-mail to 5 members of Python, cc's to H_E and con.

quote: Greetings folks. I have sent this to the members of Python that I think may be active. If there are others - please pass it on. Ok - d-day is here. We are facing two stacks of death. We can do serious harm to one of them. Here's our pitch. We still believe that this war makes no sense for Python, and we are still baffled by your alliance with CoD. We appreciate sticking by an alliance, and honouring commitments, and and all that good stuff, but you now have a golden opportunity to dictate terms on this continent. Here's what we propose. We attack CoD. As we said, we have sufficient forces to seriously cripple one of the two stacks. On your turn, you declare war on CoD, eliminate the survivors, capture the 23 catapults, and head north. You can dictate the terms for us - Python and Monkey - splitting the continent; we would want some allotment of CoD land, but you would get the lion's share. Survival is our goal, as you can well understand. If you play this out as you and CoD have it planned - your empire will be split with CoD in the center. Enough said. If you play it out as we have suggested, you have the majority of the continent, with your empire consolidated. And after the battle in question, you will undoubtedly have the strongest standing army on the continent. Again - the main barrier to this plan is your commitment to CoD. If that is unbreakable, and I appreciate the dynamics of demo games ARE different, then so be it. We will respect that. But, if you don't mind tarnishing your honour a bit, then I am sure you will see the logic to our plan. We are NOT making a similar proposal to CoD. And we WILL make a stand here. There is not much room left to retreat to. Given the seriousness of the Armageddon Day for the Simian Nation, we will sit on the save as long as you need to debate this. We are available for discussion at your convenience. Simply pm or e-mail conmcb25 or me. Sincerely - Beta of Monkey.

I'm surprised it is taking so long to reply - but I suspect I will not be surprised by their response.

No surprises, unfortunately.

quote: Greetings once again, Team Monkey. We have given your offer a good faith consideration - something we believe to be a necessity given our own admittedly decietful actions leading up to this war. We must unanimously reject your offer. The Castle of Loimbard is honor-bound to CoD in a war that we proposed, we planned, and we started. It is our intention to follow this war to the end, and to fight it with our Izzardian brothers. Besides, you didn't think we'd let you out of the war that easily did you? :P Good luck on the battlefield. ~Octavian X The Guy Who Still Calls Himself Prime Minister Despite The Fact That Other People Are Now Running The Show, Team Monty Python
