ooh look - somebody learned how to read the picture books!


Congratulations on your letter progress - dum-dum!

Best I can do - https://imgur.com/a/ZtuBTyG

I am sorry to have to do this, but duty calls.


Hi, my name is Blackhole. I'm here today to talk to you about a serious problem effecting one of our friend. Chevs.

Chevs has been heinously banned. I am not here to litigate the why behind the ban, nor do I care to understand histories.


I'm here for one thing and one thing only, to bring Chevs back. You see, I am of the opinion that more people is better. Even if we dislike those people. Even if we war with those people. It is going to be 2025, and we need all hands on deck for 2025.



TLDR SO FAR FOR YOU REQ: This is about chevs, I have a plan!




So, how will I succeed where others have failed? It's very simple. Terror. Over the last few months I've made friends with nearly all of you, or at the very least achieved some level of 'I guess he's not completely fluffing vile'.

I believe almost everyone here tolerates me, and the two who don't, I don't think I'll find success with because I'm white (sorry, Tisya) and I'm the king of screenshots (sorry Doug).


To the rest of you though, we've found a place of happiness.


TLDR#2 REQ: Blackhole is good, not bad. Mostly.




So what changes now? Now we revert to the old Blackhole. The blackhole everyone hated. The blackhole that caused multipage posts about absolutely nothing. The blackhole that according to some, can absolutely run players out of the game. The annoying, vile, pretentious, attention whoring, suiciding, unstable, backstabbing, cheating (won't do that though, promises are promises!), blackhole.


And I will do this until Chevs is freed from his shackles and allowed to fly free again!


The terrorism network is online. And I will allow radicalization of others to join the terror network with me. We will push things to the limits, but we will not go over the limits of breaking any game rules. And as you all know, I am intimately familiar with ALL game rules, so I know exactly what that line is.


TLDR #3 REQ: Blackhole is going to be an asshole to free chevs!



Many of you may ask 'how is this going to help?' To you I respond with 'who fvcking knows?!? I'm gonna do something though, cause no one else is doing anything!!!'




TLDR #4 REQ - F yeah, let's go!

Welcome back Slagpit, thank you for the communication.

BOOM! Suck it, superflu!

The people who hate me are haters, definitionally.


Nothing I can do about that! They love me still, they just don't know it yet. Time is a flat circle and all that fluff.

I think I can get him!

And Empy isn't leaving. Empy - spin up a revenge alliance and go to war with all your enemies.

You don't need to pray for me about that. I don't hurt feelings anymore. I'm loved by all and love all.

I will also pray for you, Superflu

Hey SF - don't be a jerk.

Rokkie - see above. That's what I was referring to? I didn't even know you played with them a few sets ago, so I was just confused.

Why did rokkie get kicked out a few sets ago?

I always want screenshots! Add them to my collection, send them please!

Hell ya, Princess Tisya and I are now allies.

Bet ya'll never thought that would happen!


Welcome back, Tisya. Looking forward to playing along side you.

I think the biggest factor in favor of unbanning chevs is that I'm still here.


If I haven't been permabanned, how can chevs be permabanned? Did he murder someone IRL or something that we don't know about?

I did my part, apparently.


Free Chevs!

For as much as he criticized me, that seems like some emotional immaturity. This game deserves better, such a shame :(

I'll let coalie know to let everyone know that you've been made aware of drow looking for you via bonnaman.

I don't really want to re-hash this, but no, Superfly. I didn't chase away the only interested dev. If he has left (has he?) he did that, because he drew the ire of a large portion of the community after banning myself, tan, drow, coalie, empyrean, and maybe others?

That list of names spans at least 4 alliances, and people who are not traditionally allies. The reasons for the banning have been litigated and all parties have made determinations as to how they feel about it.


My role in said events involved being banned for impersonating a mod (something to this day, I will still state I never did) and then going on vacation to Europe, to find that everyone else was also banned for various other... reasons.




In short - I don't think I'm the main player in that saga, but merely a side show. Despite my best efforts at always being the center of attention, sadly I believe I failed in that instance.

Well nobody even contacted me to get more information. It seems to be a pretty big bug, if I'm being honest. I know the devs, or at least one dev, is interested in improving this game and broadening the player base. I think a good start would be at least responding to bugs like this.

If any game devs want more info, please feel free to reach out to me. Happy to help however I can.

It was very close, yes. Not exact, as a few very small sales took place.


Surely someone from them dev team can look at game logs or something. Like I said, I'm very confident something is up here, and I' seem to remember someone else posting a bug like this before.

Nope, it wasn't that. I checked my country news, and I checked all my troop/tech totals afterwards, and they were unchanged. I was able to compare screenshots from before and after.

SO?

After further consideration, I'm very confident this was a bug.

I logged into my country at noticed I had very little money (was going to buy some tech). So I checked my tech to see if I had purchased any on buy orders, and it didn't appear I had. Then I checked my country news to see if I had purchased stuff there, and I hadn't purchased more than a few mil, but I'd also sold stuff.

At this point, I thought I was confused and logged into different servers to ensure I was on the right server, which I was. Then I realized I still had EE pulled up on my browser, and was curious what the window said (I was playing on mobile at this time). I went back, and sure enough I had 200+mil. I was also on my tech screen, so I was able to compare tech totals and confirm they hadn't changed. I have zero military, so I know it wasn't purchasing of that, and my food was under 1mil food, so I know it wasn't from that.


Long story short, VERY confident about 200mil disappeared.

I think I may have encountered a bug. I had 200+ mil at one point today. I logged back in, and was down to about 10mil, it seems about 200mil disappeared from my country. There were not any big buy orders that were fulfilled, any turns run, or anything like that.

I posted a screenshot in the discord mod chat. I'm not sure if a bug like this can happen? Hopefully I'm not just going crazy...

ph;

Then stop replying, you're gonna get banned!

Eek that one sucks bro. I've rehabbed with people doing those, just as bad as an ACL from what I could see. I think harder to get back to 100% afterwards too :(

Dude, this is just patently false. I had another knee surgery recently. I'm definitely not fluffing stronger. Knee is jacked, not sure I'm gonna be able to get back on the mats. I'm WEAKER NOW!

Is it though? Is it really? Have you learned nothing about me after having known me these last two years?

Dude, literally no one cares about you. No one is talking to you, and no one wants you to talk to them.


This thread is about Drow owning Slagpit, and ATSucks making me look good.

Please let it continue, as it's incredibly fun to watch.

Galleri has specifically told me I'm a 0 out of 10 on pissing her off. You owe me an apology SuperNOTfly

I personally witnessed the SOL leader tell you in discord that your war declaration was full of lies. I also personally witnessed offer to make a 'bet' with her that if she couldn't point out your lies, you were going to ban her for 2 months.


I think that suffices as her disputing your version of events.

I'm an idiot and typed PDM when I meant M4D. Sorry bro

Then who fed you false intel? Someone else in M4Ds at Leto's request?

[quote poster=Slagpit; 53118; 1043965]

This is kind of a weird post. I'm responding to what you're saying on the boards. You seem to be reaching way beyond that. Where is your evidence for any of this?

I can tell you that I don't believe in a play style that deceives others. I don't want players to doubt the words that I say on the boards, even when I'm engaging in the community as a player. For example, I would never get a defensive ally with someone on primary then break that pact and farm them. [/quote


If you want people to trust your word, you're failing miserably at that.


We all believe that you worked with Leto to come up with somoe non-sense excuse to try to cripple SOL.


If that's not true, why don't you reveal your 'intel' that you were falsely fed so we can see who the real liar is.

You were fed false intel.

By Leto, right?


Now we are all on the same page.

On the contrary, my friend. I am a very flawed individual that makes frequent mistakes.

I will admit that what Sapphire said is true (although, unbeknownst to me at the time) I will also state that, although I blamed it on M4D, I ididn't actually know. Sometimes it's fun to levy an accusation and see where it goes. That one didn't stick, obviously.

It was. Too bad that wasn't on the list that Slag responded to. He just kinda... added that one, lol. He's like 'look, you didn't actually lie in anything I quote and said you lied about, so I'm going to find another post from you somewhere else instead'.


Good try slug!

Yep!

Sure... lol.

I attack M4D. M4D kills me. Ya'll decide to attack SOL. And you expect us to believe ya'll and M4D didn't talk, aren't in cahoots?



Come on, we aren't stupid. Wow. This is insulting.

Slagpit - we aren't stupid enough to believe your lies, lol. Just admit that Leto talked you into hitting SOL so that they could have an advantage in their arranged war later in the set. We all know what really happened here.

Exactly. If they were planning on striking ATSucks with an FS, they would have surely had offense and defense, and not been wide open.


Slagpit, do you want to ban yourself now, or would you like to flail around for a bit first?

There are literal posts on these forums with ATSucks members mocking SOL for having countries with zero defenses.

Was that point 1, 2, 3, or 4, Slag? And do you realize you just posted from your wrong account?

I'll make a deal with you.

Point out one of my lies. And if you can't, you ban yourself for 2 months.

Dude sui, I know. That's what I've been trying to say!
