As for a response to UnO's PM, how's this:
quote:
UnO,
Ask yourself this: why else would the gifting/regifting have taken place?
That's all I can say, as GoW is allied with ND, and I assume any info I give you will be provided to ND.
-Arrian |
I thought about it, and it just doesn't make sense to pretend otherwise. What possible purpose could there have been, other than warping troops back to Pamplona?
-Arrian
edit: no, I haven't sent it. I'm open to suggestions (including "no, arrian, you idiot, do not tell him that!")

Since I doubt that the info will be of any use to ND or GoW ("there's an extra two units on Bob - we'd better not attack"), I don't think that they are asking to strategic reasons. I suspect they want to know because they would consider it a hostile action, violating the NAP, and so they would be justified in attacking us, since we have gone from claiming RP cities (in return for techs, as GK told them...) to actively helping RPs war effort by moving their troops around for them. Since GoW and RP are at war (publically, if not in game), that could well fall under the hostile actions clause, (which IIRC is what the NAP specifies, rather than anything about attacking each other).

No... no real info. Let them guess, keep them off balance. If we answer, we can only say: "I'm sorry, but that is strategic info, and we hope you will understand we do not give strategic info to a team who is treathening one of our cities."
I agree with vulture: they know there is bit one reason to do this swapping, and they are asking for an excuse to call it a further violation of our NAP.
As to whom it came from: it is quite strange that hours after we chatted in Lego, asking if they have passed the info on, UnO asks us about it. However, that does not mean Lego lied to us per se, there's also Vox, and there's also RP. Plus, we did not ask to keep it from the others, so very strictly speaking, there has been no leak...

I would just tell him that what we do on our own continent is our own concern.
What's this "to a man" bullshit. He might have been honest with us in the past, but certainly others on his team have not. Actively plotted against us. Fake war. Fake screenshots (that we paid for!) Landed offensive units on our soil. Royally ****ed us with Feudalism.
No, they don't deserve anything other than the back of our hand.
And yes, I agree that they are "building" the case for war and this is one more piece.
Maybe we should tell them that if they are looking for excuses to declare war on us, then they should just be men and do it. Challenge their manhood, thats the ticket.

They are asking us to disclose military secrets. That is simply unexcusable. Maybe we should ask them why they moved a spear onto the hill near PoI? Spying on our troop movements? Maybe we should ask them their troop disposition and location.
What we do on our land is our own business. It is obvious that know exactly why a city like that would be exchanged.
Do they know that we were in a 1/2 turn war? They didn't say it, Lego didn't say it, but perhaps they didn't want us to know they knew.
If they don't know we were at war, they wouldn't know that we gave them cats.

Possible response:
quote:
Your question about Inchon constitutes prying into private matters between GS and RP at a time when you have declared war on RP in the forums (albeit not in-game yet). Under the circumstances, we feel that providing a direct response to your inquiry would set a bad precedent. However, lest you interpret something you think might have happened there as a possible hostile act directed at you, keep in mind which of RP's enemies they are actively fighting at present. |
[Edit: Added "we feel that" to make it sound maybe a little less blunt]

I kinda like using technicalities vs. GoW, after what they did to RP and how they basically gloated about it on the public forum.
