[22:23] Laura_BTR_R5: I'm better now. I got the flu a few days before Christmas from my 2 year old cousin. I had that for a week and then a few days later my mom got the stomach flu from someone at work and gave it to everyone in the house.

SF USAF KNIGHTS Alliance Chat January 4, 2015

[17:56] Crector: Ice
[17:57] klemal: ok
[17:58] Crector: D.D.:  Gruumpy Killersd is the name of the alliance, Kickin Chicken is the name of the culprit.
[18:00] Dianais: Right there. Correcting.
[18:05] misty18: did our player quit?
[18:10] Dianais: bsbarn has not been online for quite a while. He went to ruins.
[18:12] Dianais: Whenever any of our players shows  as not online for some more than a week, without previous advice, we are forced to pressume the player quit the game.
[18:12] Dianais: Rather than leave the player assets go away, we will take them for the benefit of other alliance members, whenever there is interest.
[18:13] Dianais: Misty: do you have troops available in ice to launch two captures, on the two food RVs stolen by  KickinChicken?
[18:14] misty18: yes, but not a lot
[18:14] misty18: if he defends
[18:14] misty18: i need food bad there
[18:16] Dianais: Could you please make the exercise of how much time would take the two capture attacks? Load exactly the forces and commander you would launch, but do not launch, just check how much time each would take.
[18:16] misty18: coords?
[18:17] Dianais: 936:918 & 940:913
[18:19] misty18: 35 min for first one
[18:20] misty18: 34.5 min for 2nd
[18:21] misty18: but only would be about 40 troops per attack
[18:22] misty18: actually 37 and 38
[18:24] Dianais: Ok ok. KickinChicken will leave a small garrison, probably not more than one soldier, to allow the capture. Your about 40 troops per should be more than enough.
[18:24] misty18: so launch?
[18:25] Dianais: Let me spy over there to make sure terms are honored...
[18:25] misty18: ok
[18:25] misty18: i am building troops
[18:25] misty18: but was going for swordsman
[18:25] misty18: they take time
[18:27] Dianais: Spies on the way.
[18:27] misty18: ok
[18:27] misty18: btw, anyone need food
[18:27] misty18: can send 3500
[18:27] Dianais: Give a few minutes for the confirmations.
[18:30] Dianais: You can launch. Reports will confirm, but the terms are agreed and KickinChicken report the RVs ready.
[18:31] misty18: ok
[18:32] Dianais: Spy reports ok. Forwarded.
[18:34] misty18: i gave wrong times
[18:34] misty18: almost 2 hrs
[18:34] misty18: sorry
[18:36] Dianais: No problem this time, because we have reached terms with them. But if we had an non peaceful takeover, coordination would have been critical.
[18:37] Dianais: Make sure you understand what are the correct times to report in case required.
[18:37] misty18: ok
[18:37] misty18: anyone need food?
[18:38] Dianais: I can use some this time in my outpost fase.
[18:38] slickdave50: is rv open
[18:39] Dianais: The 2 food bsbarn RVs have been assigned to Misty. Don't have recollection of other RVs open at this time.
[18:44] misty18: 24 min
[18:44] misty18: 3500
[18:45] misty18: how much food does each supply?
[18:48] Dianais: I think I remember increasing the suply by 50% of a fully functional farmhouse.
[18:49] misty18: ty
[18:49] misty18: now i can build an army there

Mass Message to SF USAF KNIGHTS January 3, 2015

There is an independent player named Stryker7813 in Everwinter not far from my castle.  Since his castle is ablaze and he was nonresponsive to msg's, it seemed logical that he was a inactive, so I attacked his castle a few times.

Earlier today, he sent the following message:

You're an Ahole

Immediately thereafter, my castle in Everwinter was struck first by Shadow Mercenaries then by a direct attack from Stryker7813's castle.

Given the vast distances between alliance members in Everwnter, it would be too much to ask you to attack him.  However, Stryker7813 has a castle in Evergreen at 514:296 as well as OP's at
515:295 and  515:297  that should be within striking distances for most of you.

Thank you for your consideration,


Crector

Stryker7813 in Green

You're an Ahole

Castle Aaron:

514:296


OP's:

515:295
515:297

Messages from klemal January 2015

Crector,  This is the message I've sent to m. I thought you should know the situation here,

Food supply keeps dropping...i use up twice what I can produce and it's getting worse with more recruits. I can barely stay afloat....will have to go for broke and send all my defenders as well or start losing them thru desertion. I am building more farm houses, but that really isn't the answer. I am at a tactical disadvantage and if the foreign castles attack I could lose it all...if that happens, I will leave the alliance....and I would like Crector to deal my death blow. It will be easy as there will be no one left alive.


Crector, I added 2 more farms and am upgrading them....need to upgrade a few residences to get my income up...I can take out those trees to make room for more farms. I have a lot of plates spinning right now...need to get more troops to take out that op today if I can. Back to raiding rb's


Thats all I've been doing is raiding every rb in a 8 mile radius...starting to get some decent payouts


Crector, The new op came online early this morning and I shouldn't have to worry about suppies much anymore...except maybe stone, later on. I have a lot of damage to repair and both types of troops to build up....gotta defend my main and this place and get a massive army up to take the next op.  I have re-named this op Elysium....I can't wait to get back so we can start some co-ordinated mayhem . I see many of the things they do here.  and it's all on a massive scale...the numbers are astounding...loot and glory.  Last night they were waiting for the monuments to reset and made it a point to snag as many as they could for the bonuses it brings their alliance.....likr a pod of Orca's attacking a group of seals. Talk to you later, buddy


There is no stone at this op but other than that it is way bigger than my main castle....lvl 10 bldgs...I had to destroy a lot of them but it is still way more than I had. If and when I get that other op, it should be enough to keep everyone who is in need supplied. But first I gotta take it...maybe by tomorrow, I am going to need 500 troops at least, but at least now I have steady income of larger proportions. I can't screw around with anyone...have to have tunnel vision and get this done and overwith before some yahoo tries to cut in. I will let you know when I'm ready to go for it. I am going to be putting out fires for weeks here...or at home, when I take the second one. Take care buddy, hope to see you soon.



Crector, I am going to start my attack in less than a hour.


Thanks, Crec...it's just a time consuming process, I think maybe these op's can provide everything that's needed....the one I just captured has a small quarry....they are both food 6 so food shouldn't be a problem anymore. The rebuilding process could take a week or more depending upon the amount of damge done to each structure. I won't know til tomorrow how much demolition I have to do to the second op. Right now I'm just concentrating on shoring up the defenses in all of my castles.....I've repelled a few spys at my main in the past couple of days. I attribute it to being the new kid on the block.



some little creep right next to me....to the death alliance and some guy 500 miles away....he also sabo'ed me I think but I didn't want to get into it with anybody....tunnel vision on accomplishing these captures....I'm glad m was here to lend a hand as I didn't wwant to bug these guys too much.....they have been in a frenzy since this foreign lord wars started....I have never seen loot taken in the amounts they collect.....raid after raid...huge amounts of glory. You realize I am way below their lowest level here....I feel like a flea. ;o). They have been  helpful , sending food and backup after that first capture. Can't wait to get back though.

Mass Messae to SF USAF KNIGHTS December 29 2014 "SevilDanny"

As some of you may or may not be aware, our pacific colleague SnellesPlayer was attacked by a swine called SevilDanny.  If we are to ward off future terrorism like this, we need to make it clear to all malefactors that any attacks on the members of this alliance will result in massive retaliation.  To this end, I'm asking everyone of you to either attack this creep's castle  and his outposts in both Green and in Ice.  If you don't want ot attack him owing to losing honor if you  do so, then please sabotage him at least once.

Thank you for your consideration,

Crector, War Marshal

Message to Dianais New Year's Day 2015

Yesterday, I had an illuminating exchange of conversations with SnellesPlayer that began when I asked him why he did not send a battle report of the attack on his castle by SevilDnny.  His response:

I must not have it set up to automatically report to the alliance. How do I do that?


I then explained to him ow you forward batte reports, something that I thought that everyone who played the game for 72 hours knew.  Hisa response:

thanx  I LL tell Oogie & Q Mercenary too


That kind of language just seems reminiscent of 7th grade.  The castles of those 3 players a very close to each other and they fly the same exact flag, and their playing styles are similare in that they hardly ever launch attacks, yet I've never seen them send support troops to each other and I've seen times when 2 or even all 3 of them are online simultaneously, so I don't think that these players are multis.  My feeling is that these are kids who hang out at the computer lab.

Given that SnellesPlayer did not know how to forward battle reports, one wonders just how much else he does not know.  Since you seem to be educationally oriented, was wondering if you could reach out to them as a teacher.

What do you think?
