To start, my issues are with AF leadership and not UC. That should be clear. I have found respect for the players of UC and they are always fair in their dealings with me. I have learned that not all in AF were open and fair when it came to internal matters, however. My displeasure lies there.
I think that both feds have a smattering of "talkers/stokers" and "quiet diplomatic" types.
Were the diplomatic types plotting to kill the talkers, in the "UC," whose words and actions were perhaps perpetuating the war and costing assets? Somehow I doubt it.
Ive been playing long enough to know there are appropriate ways to usurp power within a fed. There are appropriate ways to make a statement that "I have had enough of this war." Plotting to kill the chair, during war, because he cursed or was perhaps angry and verbose about the environment at that time, cant possibly be right.
Some players in AF openly stated during the war they have had enough and went into protection. They cant be faulted. They spoke up openly and stated they were done. Others, apparently, appeared to be less open.
If AF felt that def was responsible for this war, and that AF was better off without him as chair, he should have been removed from the chair position via an open vote and discussion, and the future of the war direction should have been discussed at that point. AF, as a whole, allowed myself and others to set up and ready for war, in order to save their asses. Defcon was always clear and honest. Angry people usually are clear and honest. They cant help themselves.
Frankly I have sense there was some high level back door dealing going on with AF and UC concerning defcons head while AF leadership was counting on "the outsiders" to regain some ground for them. My main reason for being there was defcon not AF. That is a big issue for me. I come in to defend him primarily and AF secondarily, while AF is back door dealing his ass to the enemy. The very person Im trying to save was being given up while AF used our ability stop the main thrust.
This whole discussion speaks to the idea of actually "giving a shit about this game" which I dont.
\sniffles...I have been used...boo whooo.
Well I could always ask for "fee" for my and others services.
How does $100T sound?
