Down The Road
Thedillpickl
Hi Kids!
Well...
There's not much to say really. I'm fully prepared for the complaints that are forthcoming. If you are so inclined, then yes, it is all my fault. Every turn I made this month was the wrong direction. I couldn't fight my way out of a wet paper sack. Punisher should have won, he was better qualified to handle the situation.

Just don't let me hear one word about my staff. They worked hard behind the scenes to get shit done. IBB and Smoke took a few days off due to illness but both gave an extraordinary performance when active. Xichael was a superb MoD. Bryan was meticulous with the money. klop was... well he was klop, 'nuff said. Xander never got the chance to work on his projects but did manage to release an article when the TG upgrades were happening. I cannot apologize enough to him, his team and Canada for not implementing the programs that were supposed to be the main focus of my term.
To all the supporting players in my cabinet I offer my profound thanks. Even if all you did was observe, as long as you learned a bit about how things get done, I'm proud to have served with you.
Where We Are
At the moment we've achieved the wipe I was looking for earlier. Just took the long road to get there. What this has done is allow us to RW without having to fight the additional 10% damage boost of an enemy NE. Odd as it sounds, this is a benefit as long as WE DON'T WIN! We can keep pounding Croatia and Fyrom without them having an advantage. Sooner or later they will set their NE on someone else and then we make our move.
Also note we are not doing the RW thing alone. Montenegro has been a big help (thank you). Croatia should learn a lesson from past imperialists, Canada takes being a nuisance to the next level. Wait until we refill our water pistols and then look out.
Fyrom is on my list of things to do, I don't forget those who screw with me.
Call Me The Breeze
J.J. Cale wrote/performed the song and I enjoy the blues version too.
Take a jacket along, gets cold after sunset.
What's the music got to do with anything? Simply saying that status quo doesn't work for me anymore. Some may be pleased at my change of directon, some may not. Be sure that I'm not 100% on what the next thing I do will be. Like the song says...
"Well, they call me the breeze
I keep rollin' down the road
Yeah, they call me the breeze
I keep rollin' down the road
I ain't got me nobody
I ain't carry no heavy load"

Bet stopping that FYROM AS looks like a way better idea now eh? mehehehe. Either way, we of the peanut gallery always have the fortune of not sitting in the chair at the time of decision making. No doubt you made the calls you felt were best at the time.
In my book, it's always how you finish. So long as you never stop fighting, then you are always moving towards victory.
Strength and honour. o7
Problem is that, in my opinion, the AS would have landed anyhow. Allies were pulled in to many directions. However, we will never know.
It was 33-0. The problem is not in you Dill. You did fine and you're a great guy.

You did your best. Cryrom would have come anyway.

It ain't always rainbows and butterflies, but it'll do.
Great work to everyone involved! Hard decisions were made, perhaps not always the right ones in hindsight, but we did what we had to do. o7
Like I said...you may be the breeze, but at least you were breaking news, and not wind.
I got a little something for you as you hit the road

A great effort as far as I'm concerned. People can either sit back and whinge or get of their arse and do something.
~hyuu~
Who's CP now?
You! \o/
It's easy to criticize from behind the spotlight, especially those who have never stepped up.
Good effort mate o/
ty That means a lot from someone who's "been there, done that".
You never gave up, disappeared or went quiet...shows a real set of balls that, especially when that's happened to so many CP's that I have personally seen when things haven't run smoothly.
ty I never said I was perfect. I never promised to kiss anyone's ass. I never promised to please everyone. Two things I will not do is run from a fight or walk out in the middle of a job. I finish what I start.
Sometimes you're the hammer, sometimes you're the nail.
When the raw numbers are emphatically against you there just isn't any bag of tricks that can change the outcome.
We'll be back to normal soon enough with a bit of patience. It's good to get wiped once in a while. It restores a sense of reality. We're medium-small fish in big pond.
Now that I'm NOT CP (lol) I would respond by saying that this wipe will bring Canada back to reality. The "We cannot be AS'd" and the notion that our allies revolve around Canada was giving people heady ideas about themselves.

Dill I would just brush it off and look ahead.
I took a good while to compose a positive list of things done this month and posted it here.

I hope you look at it with fond memories and know that in the future you will be CP again and you will be great.

why oh why must you go there?

You did well except... You should teach your dogs to not pew in the house. Have you ever seen a cow cough while you walk in the ally. Hide for it

Don't apologize. You never did anything malicious.
You did your best and what you thought right.
You can never make everyone happy.
Fuck the haters.
"klop was...well klop"
This made my day much better. Cheers.
See you further along the road. o/
