Have you considered re-engaging the player and asking him some questions? (i.e., "What do you want to settle this?") Yes, when I and little decided to merge little told me that he had this "issue" and gave me a little background, I engaged Gamer1 in a few conversations, he seems very litterate and experienced in IK. I asked what would close this dispute and he made a demand for a few hundered k gold and lumber, I pointed out that as his issue was with little and that he had drastically depleted little's ability to meet such demands that I would have to provide resources to cover them... and without wanting to sound like George bush "i dont take kindly to threats, nor do I bow to terrorists" His latest pie in the sky demand is in the region of 900k in resources. PHAH! He has cost us to date ~1200k total, so in hindsight the original demand seems like the most cost effective.. but sod it in principal. @ shendamiar, To be honest I have totally lost track of all these databases and tolls and have no idea how to find them never mind actualy access them. I shall send you a PM... for info gamer1 September 3, 2007 RE: RE: Final Offer Because there are a lot of fleets headed for Graywolf. By the way, if you still don't think this alliance is real, check this out.

Right after you requested time to talk with Pose and I said I would hold off attacks for 24 hours. Looked to me like an attempt to catch graywolf's fleet in port. Spys from other LUXOR members too. Looked like 'ALL In' to me. I warned all previously exposed members to save their fleets until I could coordinate a response. Blkbeard misunderstood and went for the nearest target. Pose: I am sorry you got sucked up into all this. It is not always clear when you are speaking, but you did seem to be the voice of reason in the group.

Suppose he'd slip and reveal his real account if you asked him where he wanted the 900k?

ikshadow.awardspace.com/Wow, a fantastic alliance!!! Of course they get away with it, who ever spys players with only one island. With some patience you can make a formidable fleet, and fleet saving, keep it and hit your enemy everytime. Formidable indeed. But: 1-Either you're very patient, or 2-You run very good scripts or 3-Have friends who feed you constantly, or 4-You're a multi, using these small accounts to pester rather than using your big account, most probably set in a top alliance. You have to admit its a remarcable setup and these insects will be anoying.

I agree, having had this 'groups' attention for the last few weeks short of taking the hits and destroying isles/fleets there is nothing I can do... Until each 'new member' is revealed I dont even know where they are! so they come at us from ALL directions without any spying/for warning day in day out... Having been on the receiving end, it is very annoying but to be honest I cant fault his commital. There is another step that this group could take that would see me in a dire situation, but they dont seem to have thought of it yet so im hoping they run out of steam before they do!

Im not 100% on this either, but I have gathered that little colonised an isle from gamer1 in 23:100:** some time before joining [FOM] and that gamer1 has held a pet hate for him ever since.... I must be honest, I do beleive that gamer1 truly feels his motives are just, and has not really attacked MY isles, im unsure whether this is due to his moral standing or the fact that attacks that he DID send at my isles were sunk first time.

Dunno how i missed this before but ive only just read it: Oct 3, 2007, 9:53am, Pose wrote:...

Little didn't take just one isle off this guy he took at least 4 if my memory serves ( Could have been more, i'd have to go through and check if anyone really wants to know ), and he did it while he was in FoM, I thought he was inactive just before he started taking them.
EDIT: FoM was KoM

Please check 2kcastle. If true, then we owe him an apology and compensation.

I'll start looking back to find out which isles it was but to be honest i think he lost any claim to compensation when he decided to start up loads of multi accounts and build them up to attack with rather than complain to us at the time.

The only Isle I know of that was/is disputed is 23:100:15, but their are another 3 isles in the 23:100:** range that were owned by little.
Im was quite sure that this happened before joining FOM though, as I was still at 1 isle and planning on moving out to o23, little had already moved on....
I do remember asking you guys wheather I should take such a massive leap..so assumed that this was all prior to joining? if not it was within a weeks or so....
I will ask little(GARY) directy.
