Originally posted by no1marauderIt's a reasonable conclusion, yes, and almost certainly correct. But this is getting tiresome. You reported this to the GM as billjarrell - all lower case, one word, no spaces.
True, so a logical conclusion is that his name is Bill Jarrell ain't it? I personally use evidence to make reasonable conclusions; you should try it sometime.
BTW, my first name is not Bill.
Originally posted by no1marauderWhat I would like to understand is why you feel that you are entitled to an explanation of my diplomatic dealings simply because they work against you. Am I controlling Hungary and Arles as well? They are in my lands too! Hell... Maybe I am controlling Sicily and Aragon too, just to dupe you.
No, I didn't. "Smelled a rat" is a phrase that means one finds something suspicious or questionable. If you had given some kind of explanation, I would have never bothered to send anything to the GM despite the very odd moves; I would have just figured that you're not too bright to leave yourself wide open like that. But with your hysterical response "me ...[text shortened]... tion, but declined, because he "smelt a rat."

Originally posted by KnightWulfeWhat? Am I chopped liver? Me, me - I also plead. The truth is there are only two, maybe three players in the game. The rest are just personas.

What part of this is sooooooooooooooo hard for you clowns to understand?
I still say that no one in their right mind would allow a new player to just walk into his unprotected capital; it doesn't make any sense. He could have cancelled the alliance right away and declared war next turn and he would have had most of your center provinces without a fight. Are you really that dumb?
Originally posted by NordlysI always get the century wrong. And a few facts.
Constantine started to rebuild Byzantium in 324, and it became "Nova Roma" or Constantinople in 330. At least that's what my encyclopaedia says.
Diocletian (r. 284-305) divided the empire. Amazingly for those days, he resigned and lived out his days in retirement. Wise man. Constantine (r. 306-337) reunited the empire in 324 and made Christianity the official religion, following a "revelation". In 330 he established Constantinople as the new capital. Following his death in 337 the empire was again split and reunited several times until permanently in 395. The Visigoths sacked Rome in 410.
Originally posted by buffalobillThe difference is Lithuania has little choice; they lost most of their army last turn. And don't be toooooooooo surprised if Rob does sink a knife in his back! But the Bavaria-Poland situation makes no sense for either.
Why not mention Lithuania granting access rights to The Horde. I was wondering where his troops were.
Originally posted by buffalobillBecause it has no effect on him. Because Poland seems to have joined my cause for the time being has a direct effect on him. GH is Lith has no affect on him, so why would it bother him?

Originally posted by KnightWulfeKeep lying; you sound more and more guilty. The GM will decide if everything's above board and you're just really dumb or if there's something else going on.

Originally posted by buffalobillThere is also the mention of the GH troops in Hungary, a couple turns ago - the Hungarian belly was more open than mine... Hell, at least I have troops in Tyrolia to immediately combat an issue, should it arise.

Originally posted by KnightWulfeFunny, I don't remember them every being in Buda with no Hungarian troops. Guess I'll have to check my old turnfiles.

EDIT: Of course, your troops in Tyrolia would have been too far away if he had done the smart thing and broke the alliance immediately.
