I've been embargoed by a pair of shitlords: Romaveka: id -178717 and Prometheus: id - 59381 I'm currently away for the weekend and have sketchy access to discord and P&W. What should I do in this situation? Can anyone help?

Dog Pipes posted:I've been embargoed by a pair of shitlords: Random embargoes are almost always baseball related and can safely be ignored. If you actually want to know why then: Basically some people get upset when the collector comes for their fee from profiting off goons clicking buttons and so failure to pay gets them embargoed which stops their ability to play in goonball. This sometimes results in the embargoed individuals getting upset and embargoing back. For some reason. It has no effect on you unless you're goonballing and in that case it's a good thing because you won't waste clicks on people who won't pay anyways. Writing this explanation just made me realize how dumb baseball is in this game

the best feeling in the world is seeing someone attacked a goon, attacking the attacker, and getting pinged on discord by two other people who also attacked the attacker I straight up saw someone lose 400+ airplanes and get blockaded within ten minutes of attacking a goon. It's incredible watching an entire game fall to it's knees because a dedicated group of people understands lovely game mechanics and really loving hates nazis.

I was the guy who got attacked and you guys saved my bacon. Playing with goons is the only way to go. Also all that stuff in the OP about being in the discord is for real. I only just got really on it this weekend and that's where 90% of the stuff happens and where 100% of the fun is.

Finally! A pubbie who didn't want to eat pet food! Oh, wait. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1opyNl70oaHMZm9pIA4j9mS8oKT1uDBmw5A2WrDVKrn4/ Madtrixr decided he would complete this pubbie's term just because this is good propaganda against Arrgh. Also, we're moving to our own domain, I'll update the older links today. https://markets.goons.cx/ https://wiki.goons.cx/ I'll be working on getting the baseball data online this week. It's looking like the war should be ending sooner rather than later, so we can focus on growth and setting up our fash bash party. fart store posted:I was the guy who got attacked and you guys saved my bacon.

When "BLACK Lives Matter" took over the color name, I'm pretty sure it was at ~110 votes with two other names both above 100. I looked now because I was curious if they were pushing to take the name back. We have 114 votes and the next two are 53 and 43. Am I missing something or is this really a case of white flight?

Shortly after we took over the color name, there was an update to "clear out invalid votes" (from players who had left or changed colors). We theorize that people complained to Alex, accusing us of cheating somehow. Turns out, all our votes were valid and a bunch of the other votes weren't.

Goons really are a massive force multiplier; wouldn't surprise me to learn that e-honour raids and duels were the norm before we showed up. Our coordinated dogpiling is just chainsawing through months-old nations and alliances with packs of days-or-weeks old Goon nations. Starting as a 2 city anklebiter nation can be insanely profitable; I raided over 120M in the first 3 weeks. Being on discord is a must; may as well be playing solo without it.

I thought whole alliances had left the color bloc to avoid BLM.

Let's not forget that guy we attacked, turned to rubble, then they reset their Nation, and then tried to make the black block a racial slur; then they tried again when their hand was slapped and the they tried again and got permananned.
