I'm interested...
Can you teach me how to get CRIPPLED by a spam tag?
That's easy.
Step 1. Agree to an arranged war on roughly even numbers.
Step 2. Focus on prepping for that specific war
Step 3. Get FS'd and opped by a spam tag
Step 4. Profit?
I mean sure, losing missiles en masse, losing prep time and hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars, and turns having to deal with your spam tag TOTALLY isn't going to make any difference whatsoever in an otherwise more or less even prearranged war....
You knew exactly what you were doing, and you knew the overall difference it was going to make.
What's interesting, is that the other party in this supposedly prearranged war stood back and did nothing it seems. Didn't help to deal with you in order to keep said prearranged war square, didn't condemn your actions, nothing.
Certainly adds to the sense of deliberate collusion and plotting with intent to deliberately skew said prearranged even war specifically in one side's favour...
You understand that they suicided M4D first right? And we had to spend resources dealing with that as well? And the player involved is a demagogue that shall not be named, known for doing fluff like that specifically to cause problems for others? And has a serious hard on for M4D?
There's a pretty obvious case to be made that SOL planted him there for precisely that purpose. If they had bad OPSEC on other plans past that, who can blame anyone for reacting to this chain of events in exactly the way ATsucks did?
ETA - Almost forgot to add that said demagogue continued to talk fluff on Discord with a "SOL" tag on their name.
You assume that anyone is capable of planting blackhole anywhere.
agreed he has a hard on for M4D, but let's be honest here, thats a mutual thing. From what I've been given to understand, the 5 tap was brought on by your players trolling him.
That's certainly not an excuse, but it's a level of provocation.
There's also a vast difference between 5 grabs and an active out and out FS on someone, surely you would agree?
And again, nothing from M4D when it should have been condemned.
Maybe there was efforts to reach out to SoL behind the scenes, to make up for it, but I dunno.
either way, M4D goes in looking bad here, and, if they come out the winner, come out on a tainted victory, or if they lose, come out looking even worse.
