Suppose someone started knowingly targeting people on their birthdays, weddingdays or other such occasions to try and exploit the fact that someone has even the slightest sliver of a life outside this game for their advantage. You seem to argue that this would be a valid and good tactic. I think most people would argue that it would be taking being an asshole to a unprecedented level in this game. Perhaps this is a sign of the disconnect between Apprime and the rest of the players.

You do not decide what a good reason for vacmode is.
He chose to use vacmode because he was not going to be able to cover himself personally, while his alliance perfectly well could do it for him.

His motivation was to save roids, and gamble on the chance it might pay off. So how is it really different from any other "exploiters" you are having a shot at?

I have not been made aware of any facts which would indicate that 8:3 or any other apprime planets who ran into vac mode after this were unable to sort their incs out themselves, simply that they knew there weren't fleets to cover them. This is an essential difference in the circumstances.

And you are wrong, I do decide what *I* consider a good reason for using vacmode, and so does everyone else. In the end, it comes down to how others view your actions, assuming they are withing the rules of the game. People have viewed the actions of 8:3 and other apprime planets as cowardly and shameful, and alliances have rallied to show their distaste for it. It does not seem likely you'll get the same support for taking down Amon, because I believe most people will make a distinction based on the motives they perceive, and deem him guilty only of being human.

You know nothing at all, then use this nothing, to indicate that they are guilty, and finally you compare it to what?

Quote:

It was within the rules because PA-team said so.

Quote:

You are allowed to have your personal opinions on what cowardly and shameful is. Just remember that by using a tactic we in apprime choose to call cowardly and shameful, you are no better then us.

Quote:

We never cried when he used vacmode did we? Through the last rounds, numerous people have used vacmode to avoid incomings from Apprime, even though they knew this was the only alliance coming for them. We laughed at them, moved on, and launched on someone else.

If we are able to laugh and move on, why cant you?

Re: See you in 72 ticks cardi!

Wait, since when have we been able to rewrite people's posts and argue with what we've told them they've said?

I thought if we were arguing with people, we should argue against the points they've actually made, rather than just what would be most convenient to counter.

Crap, if I'd have known this sooner...

Is it upon me to prove the innocence of 8:3, or such mitigating factors as would excuse their mass-vac mode? I do not think so, the accusation has been made, and it is up to them to disprove said accusations, and based on the evidence presented each will make up their minds about the events. To expect people to take into account some unknown possible excuses which they have not been made aware of is quite simply preposterous.

I did not dispute the fact that the rules do not condemn this practice, this was made clear rather early on, and the debate on the legality of 8:3's mass vacmode was effectively ended after Mz bothered to dig through the EULA and stated there was no case for it.

In so far as your reactions to other peoples vac-mode usage, it seems rather interesting that you state you used to ridicule people who did so in the past, yet now you are defending the very same practices by your own HC? Hypocrisy comes to mind.

Further, the danger when you re-write someones post because you did not comprehend it, is that you fail to account for the nuances of what they have said, or indeed the whole meaning of the post. Or as Kenny stated, you end up arguing not against what I wrote, but against your own strawman. In essence, you achieve nothing.

Because we thought it would be funny. Much like donating all resources to one planet in the start was pretty funny from that gal (am i right!?). No one in my galaxy has any thing to prove in regards to this game, so who cares really, you know? Believe it or not, no one in our gal is crying over roidloss, or showing much "care". All this crying and whining everyone else is doing, is quite amusing though.

I didn't play rnd33, so I couldn't have started the thread back then. And your own guys started the other one. I guess evo wasn't stupid enough to make a QQ-thread about it themselves.

Also, there were options, your military command simply didn't have the imagination to come up with them, or the experience. See, that's kind of the point of flying a banner like LDK, it's not that anyone respects you any more for doing so (in the case of LDK, quite the contrary), it's what you learnt being a part of these organizations.

Re: See you in 72 ticks cardi!

You should've picked your wars instead of letting others pick it for you and force you into a battle that you could not escape. Vacation mode only postponed, not avoided this battle. In hindsight one would say that vacation mode only made it worse.

But the vacmode was not done for tactical reasons. We could have just defended the Apprimes in there, and let your planets crash on our defense. But we have been there, done that, so many times. Surely reese/eksero/cardi must have proved by now that they dont care about incs?

Nothing to prove, only lulz to make.

Why would I teach you how to play? As Firebird says, you did figure out one option, even if it was a bit late. The more creative ones I'll keep for myself, as I might want to surprise someone one day, if I am in an opportune position.

Fine, lets just both agree on that you dont want to teach Apprime how to play. We feel cheated, but since we are gentlemen, we shake your hand and hopefully we see you on the battlefield another day. Any particular reason why we cant meet on a battlefield with our fleets this round though?

Erm, what do you want me to answer? The comedic answer you are looking for? I crashed my fleet, sorry, can't help you much.

Or mayhaps the more honest answer? I went into the round not caring much, at around pt 400 bothered to sort out a teamup and by pt600 stopped caring about that as well.

Uni takes up most of my time now, which is also the reason I haven't played the previous 5 rounds. I highly doubt I'll bother playing with serious effort any time soon, but this has changed in the past and may change again, so don't hold me to my word on this.

I sincerely doubt you have ADHD. When were you diagnosed? I would hazard a guess that you have some sort of diagnosis like a combination of Pervasive Developmental Disorder & Asperges Syndrome.

Well now, since it turns out you are actually a psych student, it becomes a lot more enjoyable to disprove this diagnosis.

PDD and Aspergers both would almost require a diminished linguistic capability and/or development. I would like to think that it is quite obvious my capacity for precise linguistic expression is in no way diminished, in fact I'd dare suggest the opposite is true. In terms of development, I have always been a very vocal person, and by the age of 3 I had picked up Swedish, Finnish and English. However, my reading and writing ability did develop late in comparison with my speaking ability, which is indicative of ADHD.

Secondly, both your diagnosis would require some degree of social awkwardness, and although I'll gladly admit I don't suffer fools gladly, I do not suffer from social isolation, quite the contrary.

Finally, Aspergers is associated with a more visual way of thinking and often synesthesia. I do not experience synesthesia, and further more visual/spacial thinking is my weakest point. I am instead squarely sat on the logical/linguistic end of the thinking spectrum.

The ADHD diagnosis is about 3 years old and was conducted over a period of 6months, with input from a neuropsychologist who specializes in ADHD as well as two psychiatrists. It is quite rigorously done, although tyvm for your concern.

Have you considered switching subjects to something which you are not completely inept at? Since quite clearly, you have no talent for psychology.

Hahaha. Bravo.

But... even though you're right... you'll never be right with these idiots Sun, so why bother trying?


At the end of the day, 8:3 still got trampled, vacation mode or not. Hanzi can sit in here and say "blah blah blah App will defend them and you will crash" but as far as I saw, the only planets that actually got defended were the DLR and CT ones? But eh, if it makes you feel better to ignore the obvious... Cheers!
