No, Jairo, I'm being honest with you, dude.

I really don't think what I said is that illogical. You can not debate that this isn't an authoritarian RP. I am okay with that now that I know what it is.

I didn't know the OP acted like the game master in Dungeon and Dragons, to be honest with you.

I kinda figured it would have worked where the OP was there to make sure you couldn't obtain technology too fast not to make it so you couldn't create scenarios to explain your actions.

Oh calm down Cypher

i didnt know how accurate the netherlands meme was

context: the netherlands was played by a previous account of neventii's and he ended up flooding the netherlands after being invaded for aggressively building up military forces on the border with germany. predictably, this did not stop the progress of the invading forces, and he ended up using chemical weapons on his own population centers. the leader also committed Self Delete.

the incident is famous for "I decline your war"



then again I did stupid stuff like launch sstos from stronk sweden space program

Look, guys, there is a lot of tension being created here, I understand how this works now. Just, relax.
