RE: RE: RE: targets
in my eyes, its not really a war until an admin of the alliance says 'were at war with x'. otherwise it could just be there are a couple of hotheads acting on their own. tom_the_buffalo_soldier taking a bunch of sakian's islands down in the new territories for example. that could be explained away. and digital attacking lummie and whoever else. the admins could say 'we didn't authorize that'. from my side of the fence it looks like opportunisitic vulturing until someone gets up and says 'we're at war'.

RE: nope
green light means that those who want to organize operations on a target can do so without having to ask for permission first.

still waiting for that declaration of war though. once that comes, it changes a bit. right now only people who attacked are getting retaliation.

RE: nope
we're being slightly formal because war hasn't been declared. and it varies by ocean a bit (or region). so there's still a pause because it wouldn't be fair to attack people who aren't formally at war. that said, its possible that people who aren't attacking Digg are getting attacked by Digg. there are opportunists everywhere.

[Dalfiatach]

Ummm, every single member of MT and TV has launched attacks and we must have leveled 30 or 40 islands by now, but they're whining that it's "just hotheads" and "not official"?

Maybe DIGG's internal communications are poor and they have no idea of the scale of our attacks? Or maybe they're trying to give us an honourable out, a way to call off the war with an agreed cover story that it was just "hotheads".

Who cares. Ignore them, don't respond to DIGG messages and continue the attacks.

[Ruku]

I think they are only really referring to those players that have caused considerable damage to be honest. And I don't believe that everyone in MT has sent considerable attacks and some none at all.

[Dalfiatach]

We've been at war for what, 3 days! Anyone who hasn't done anything yet better have a damn good excuse...

[Gornall]

There is a big percentage of -MT- that has attacked though.

[digital]

Hmm I think what he's trying to say is some people aren't putting enough into it.

[Ruku]

As Dalfiatach said though, if some people haven't attacked yet, there is something wrong.

Maybe we could get someone to look through the DB and see who's actually inflicted/incurred what damage.

[Sol]

That's why I need admirals for each ocean. The mailing lists are there to inform all of the alliance. Admirals should keep track of who is not participating. Anyone not attacking should be moved to Morkin.

MT has no room for slackers. Either you fight or you step aside and let others finish DIGG off.

[Ruku]

Like I said before aswell. Maybe its worth gettin a thread which is updated everyday to show the losses/damage by each player - therefore seeing who is actually participating properly...

[Sol]

That's a lot of work for one person to do.

In a way this was made for that reason.

But we're leaders here, people need to step up. We can't babysit every single player here.

In fact, I will be sending a mass alliance message shortly...

And, I don't think there should be an official announcement. Who cares what they think. We're here and we all have a goal. Let them Puttana! all they want.

[Gornall]

Yeh, but also include shipping details aswell.

I know the idea is those who have spent their fleets or ain't powerful enough are shipping cats and stoners. They are participating but in a support role.

Another thing, members such as Calamity also got pretty much slaughtered before the poor girl could do anything.

[Sol]

Well, if you guys really want to do this, set up a proper thread and I will help you update it. But I cannot, and will not do it all by myself.

[Gornall]

Tbh, I don't think its urgent. It would definately be something worth lookin at but at the moment I don't think its a priority.

The active members need to concentrate on co-ordination with what they have at their disposal, not writing threads about who not doing what.

[Sol]

And that was my reason for not doing it... lol

[Gornall]

Exactly, just leave it be.

If you notice someone not doing something enquire why. THey prob have a valid reason for doing so.
