Yes, your plan worked excellent, congratulations, especially since this meant that everybodies work during the previous day was not in vain. It would have been so sour otherwise. But I do hope he now isn't so pissed off that he will start using scorched earth tactics on your other islands and such. The best hope now is that he is pissed but at the same time so focussed on wanting Lindholm that he doesn't yet think about the rest. That gives you time for another few catapult attacks on the infrastructure and such before he shows up again. Measure those traveltimes from his nearest isles capable of sending out colony ships ! And coming back to what Igor wrote not so long ago, I think (although it wasn't that clear for everyone ?!?) he meant that it is possible that DarkLady is behind it. She too knows the importance of "relations" and people in high places and she did write a childish mail to David J. to brag that she is now higher ranked than any of [Morkin] barring Mads. Getting someone to lower Mad's score a bit, might help her achieve her sportive goal sooner ! It seems a bit conspiracy theory like, but we have seen stranger things already, not ? Me, I'm currently "breaking my head" over the question why DarkLady sent me a PM on IK and what the title "Curious" could possibly refer to. Has it something to do with my continuous silence, has it to do with my diplomat status, my recent contacts that are only shown on my page since 3 days or so (that would require her to monitor us, Morkin, and our pages even more than some of us watch hers and [Hawk]. Or perhaps she wants to know why I too mention Xalthorn under "associated:" as she does with Parwez and Xalthorn and others. I'd like to stress I had written to Xalthorn already before she jumped in and took over... Not entirely on topic this, but everything is connected to everything. They say... May we live in interesting times, hack, no, August, we live in interesting times !

I suggest you read the message and reply. But reply politely. Not friendly, not angry. That dry, cold politeness seems to work on her. Last IK PM I got from her was something like "Igor, can I ask you something?" and my answer was simply "Yes?". And it worked - never heard from her again, not here not on MMU forum. Maybe I don't get all those fine intricacies of english language, but "Yes?" was better than "What do you want?" or "I'm not interested." In my view it showed willingness to talk, but uninteresedness for conversation. Am I making sense here? Like with children (or women, sorry gals): yes, dear; yes, dear while watching a soccer game.

if mr orange is a multi would it be worth passing his details on to the so called multi hunters to distract him for a while

orange's first attack failed, as we have see. But either I have missed something, or he didn't go about it very smartly.
Is it possible to reduce the main house to level 1 in the attack the colony ship makes? What I mean is, as I had a main house of level 3 when the attack landed, and it was reduced to level 1, was it at all possible to colonise my isle?
I would have thought that the main house had to be level 1 when the attack struck, and not during/because of the attack. Maybe that's just my false assumption.
Under my understanding, it would then require timed attacks to make a successfull attack. One attack that reduces the main house, and then less than an hour later (as upgrading the main house to level 2 takes an hour an a bit) hit the same isle with the colony ship.
But orange must surely be aware of this if it is so, and he let more than 24 hours pass between his initial attack and the arrival of the colony ship.
Either way, it is very sloppy work on his behalf, badly timed. Either he expected no resistance on his second attack, or he is not that bright at all.
Anyway, the last message I had from him (notice the date) was :
and we haven't talked since, of course. I'm considering making him some kind of offer to make him choose another isle, but I am unclear just what that could be. My guess is that he will be back online late this evening, and be unhappy to see his attack failed.

agree we would have make sure he is a multi before saying anything but would Pheeny from Sohei confirm or is it a bit cheeky to ask without comprimising what we have got so far

I will ask Pheeny to clarify, unless you want to Marc, as you made the initial contact and have more of a relationship with her?

I don't have "more of a relationship" with her and besides she has a partner, just as I do ;D ;D ;D ;D No, you can ask freely, I'm not that territorial, but I would like to hear the answer ofcourse. This is a reply I got from Aspen, the [Sohei] founder who wanted me to come and say "Hi" (isn't it a little ridiculous, when you start to think about it ? ): Message Date: 28.08.2005 19:48 From: Aspen Subject: RE: last part of Orange was once a good friend and member of mine, long ago. But he joined Lycans (before your time) who were terrible tyrants and evil people. He has been polluted since.
I can only advise you that he likes being flattered, he once had many multi accounts but deleted them upon discovery, and that he is not very intelligent. I suspect he does not fear Sohei as he will belive that our friendship would prevent me from acting.
I advise you do not annoy him, and do not give him reason to attack you again. Regards.Strong the Darkside is....Yes.... ;D
