GFFA Calling in External Allies
Why should we show mercy and restraint? If they refuse to agree to our demands, then we shall make their people suffer under the burden of war until they see the light and fall to their knees, begging for salvation

Besides, we will be leaving some alive. Just no/very few Xanthalians. Oh, and the Solarians will probably be greatly reduced in number when I get done with them too, but this is more because I'll be harvesting much of the population to convert into cybernetic jannissaries, to use to further the ESUS war effort with utterly expendable cannon fodder.

No no no!
People are renewible, but finite in their capasity for such, and expensive to properly educate/train/enhance.
"Minerals" are mostly non-renewible(conservation of energy can be broken, or you can tap other universes/etc), but nigh-infinite in supply, and fairly cheap to extract for the most part - it is the application of those resources that incurs most of the expense, and is limited by the finite extent of infastructure.
As such, value rests in infastructure and educated/trained/enhanced personel, as well as the population base as a steady source of said personel.

I would like to state two things.
A. I don't think we should negotiate at all, or let the GFFA call allies in. This was a closed war FROM THE START. I don't think we should back down from that at all. We have a more powerful weapon than just allies, I say if nessecary we make it bloody well known to all of II that the GFFA has gone back on their initial agreements after they fucked up their defense, showed gross ineptitude and generally threw away their chance to win. They stuffed it up, they made the rules and now we're destroying them, they don't want to play ball.
At the least we need to appear quite clearly as the victims so the GFFA loses cred, which is what I propose we attempt to do. In the meantime, we need a large argument/debate thread over there, or on msn, or something.
B. In terms of the beta situation it goes like this, as godular, balrogga and a few others will substantiate. (I've been whining about it to them a lot lately)
1. I, Xenonier, post.
2. Jjr gets his post eaten.
3. Sie says he couldn't post.
4. I say fine, but ask if they could post before I move in due to timezones. (No complaint ledged against this. )
5. Godular then tells me by proxy, without being told by either Sie or JJR, that I'm supposed to be the one posting first when I was given no notice despite stressing I was open to post first at any time, so long as I was notified.
6. I post again.
7. Neither JJR or sie have.
So yeah, I've been as active as I can, but a leader cannot charge alone, as I'm sure you understand.

Fortunately we have a prophet among us for he has fortold their trechery.
Another thing to mention is the way Xanthal decided to boot Jord from the RP. He was not the Thread Starter and thus not the only one with the rights to remove anyone from a Thread, defender rights withstanding. It is accepted Etiquette that the only one with that authority is the Origional Poster, and if they are not arround, then there isn't anyone. What is to stop him from pulling that again against Mindset. He tried to when Mindset was at the wedding and Godular told him to lay off. I believe he even gave a deadline too but I could be wrong.
EDIT:
Yep, here it is from Post #131
To find his words of prophesy, list look at the fourth page of the "Appealing for a cease Fire" Thread...Chronosia wrote:Nay. The GFFA are notorious for breaking their word. They had a cease-fire with the GE and then broke it.
I propose we forge ahead with maximum force. NZ's nation has died, so that vaguely leaves me hanging...Where else am I needed?

I need to know the status of your fleet at Mirfak, and I need to know what became of your B and C fleets. I will make a final check on September third. If that information remains unreported, your participation in this thread will be terminated.
