Hi kids!
Quite the to-do in the comments from my last address. It seems there was some discussion prior to Canada's entry into the fray that needs to be mentioned. I have taken the opportunity to contact Joshua Morriseau of Norway and Infowar of Australia. They both confirm that originally the UK agreed to a TW with Norway. Canada came into discussion with others involved when the AS by Lithuania occurred and the UK continued into Norway. The original agreement was to give back the regions after the tournament. Also there was reason to be concerned for Australia's colony.
Was this good enough reason for Asgard and LETO countries to react? According to our friends that comment to my article the answer is a firm NO. Regardless, Canada did not act unilaterally. Asgard had their NE's. Israel proposed and did indeed make an AS of their own. LETO set some ensuing battles as priority. Right or wrong this CP reacted to requests for help from Canadian allies. I stand by that decision. I will apologize for not mentioning the TW that was agreed to in the beginning and for stating the involvement of Chile as that was just supposition by myself and others.
As to the word surrender I looked up the definition.
sur·ren·der
verb
1. cease resistance to an enemy or opponent and submit to their authority.
I will go so far as to accept the first part of the definition.
*The NE explanation is somewhat confusing. After further examination and deduction, the No NE is not the option for the UK. It is not available to them until 7 days after the Swedish NE and would then remove that NE.

...
You cannot sign a peace treaty with your Natural Enemy: both countries must first unset Natural Enemy before they can sign a peace treaty.
...
After 7 days have passed, the current Natural Enemy can be changed to another country or unset.
So this has happened.
FAQ
Will I be able to unset my Natural Enemy?
...
If the natural enemy is unset between country A and country B, the war between them remains active.
But what remains to be seen is what admin means by "the war ... remains active". If auto-attack continues it may be necessary to Propose Peace.
Situation Update
> Nigeria did an AS on Australia which finished their wipe.
> Germany has taken the opportunity to claim a few Nordic regions.
> UK and Norway are still at it.
> UK has NE'ed Sweden.
> Other LETO interests call for our attention.
I would like to leave a stable Canada for our new CP. This matter needs to be wrapped up. Either we are at war or we are just supporting our allies, we can't do both. This circular war is ridiculous as neither of us win and we both loose damage that could be better used elsewhere. Let us meet on the field of battle in Norway or Sweden, that would be good and proper. I call on the Congress of the UK to end this.
Comments
dunno about you Dill, but I'm bored of being CP...
Feel a bit like a dog chasing it's own tail.
If your demand is that the UK sets its NE to 'BLANK' then thats not going to happen as we, unlike you are at war with other nations and thus would be a major concession on our part and something that couldn't be done for another 9 days / till Sweden gets wiped.
Besides you just got initiative back!
Call up LETO and Pals and push forward with renewed vigour against them cheeky Brits.
Please calm yourself. After further examination of an incomplete explanation I can see that the "No NE" is not the option we want. I do not care to tell you who to NE, that is none of my business.
I'm finished. You can continue your prattle.
I think he is always calm...
Our money war will have to wait.
Admin should expect a rather large ticket when this term is over. I'll take a few days and then I'll devote some time to explain why this is not a good way to manage proposals. For starters, a little explanation would be helpful, the wiki stinks.
I admit the mechanics are not straight forward but if you have played the game for a decent amount of time they are not that confusing. Lots of people understand them. Also I have no idea where this notion is coming from that the UK must set a no NE, they just need a different NE.
Did you ever look at "Gold & Extras"? That is the most straightforward page in the whole game It also has safeguards to make sure you want to send your friend a gift. Why? Because they want your money and were getting ripped off because people would say that they sent the gold by mistake, that they didn't know they were doing that. So admin had to give money back but could not recover the fake gold without making the friend mad.
Now consider the Proposals page. No directions, no help links, wiki is confusing and incomplete. No money in it for them or is this the "strategy" that I complained because it was removed from the game?
Didn't you have to go through the same process with Ireland TW?
Either way the NE's are no longer directed at each other so as I understand the mechanics......you should now be able to propose peace (?)
I'd hurry before admin removes the 'peace' option from the game altogether 😛
Admin is uninterested in improving gameplay unless those changes can result in additional gold purchases. They are driven by creating chaos as chaos leads to tension and tension leads to fight button.
Best of luck, all the same.
You, Sir, are a genius.

Thanks for your friendship and support during your term Thedillpickl 🙂 I hope to be seeing you around again in the future, we don't forget our mates o7
"The Circular Wars". Best name for it.
I demand the UK move counter clock wise instead of clock wise in order to bring some excitement back.
Or maybe "Dancing with our Ugly Cousin again".
There you go,

Let's see what happens.
I suppose you could not find the surrender button then? You and your buttons.
Admin needs to remove the NE and make Declarations of War free.
There goal is to have wars last as long as possible. so people use up their resources.
And that is why the game sucks. They shouldn't use game mechanics like this.
