Whistlin' Past the Graveyard
(Seriously, don't miss this one...)
Day 2383 of the New World
May 30, 2014
OMG.
Note to Molly Emma - I am soooo jealous of you right now. I should have had the balls myself to leave that sham of an alliance... I wish I had.
Not that all of the nations in Sirius are horrible. And there were some good people there during my two month tenure in the White House.
But my goodness was it more trouble than it was worth.
The writing was certainly on the wall. I should have known.
Molly, you are being cast as disengaged by Sirius media. Don't pay attention to it. I still have enough "back room" access to know that you are very active, interested, and more than available enough. You are easy to find.
No, what Sirius is not saying publicly is that they had no intentions of ever working with you right from the start. They are far more interested in NAPing Asteria, screwing with Russia, and selling us down the river. What's an alliance, after all, when it's built on the desires of only a few of its member nations?
USA had a legitimate voice in Sirius during the short time we were at the top of the international rankings (/me pats himself on the back). But as soon as we slipped from the top... ignored once again.
I must say, we've had far more "working" relationships with countries like ROC than we've had with our "alliance" these past four months.
People can disagree all they want (and I can already foresee the wildass comments in this thread), but when Spain acts more amicably towards us when they are our enemies than when they are our alliance mates? Something is wrong with that. Can we please make Spain our enemy again so that they will be nice to us again? Because being "friends" with them is like masturbating with sandpaper.
But I should probably stop before I say too much.
Last thoughts, Molly: you're doing awesomely. Remember, Sirius will have to circle their (diminishing) wagons, and to do that they need for you to be at fault. But if you have had to deal with even half of the slights, the ignoring, the passive aggressiveness... the downright lowdown dirty politics I had to deal with from Sirius, you must be a Goddess. Because if they lied about me like they are lying about you??? I'd have ended up with a temp ban at minimum.
Sirius is a graveyard, Molly. Some of the zombies there are decent characters. But it's still cemetery. So keep on whistlin' right on past the graveyard. To paraphrase my hero, tear yourself off a rainbow and wear it as a tie.

I'll propose the MPP ~_^
Not with eCanada, I hope
F the USA - Time for some paybacks
"USA had a legitimate voice in Sirius during the short time we were at the top of the international rankings (/me pats himself on the back). But as soon as we slipped from the top... ignored once again."
I had to lol. Like, really loudly. If you think that people in an alliance gives a shit about international rankings then you're sorely mistaking, they don't.
P.S We didn't leave, we got kicked out. So you wish that you would have been the person that was CP when we got kicked? Good to know.
HeapSeppo, people who run to be CP are usually a bit more respectful..
I don't see how I was disrespectful, I pointed out that no one cares about international rankings just because they don't matter. He knows that we don't gain any power from being rank 1 simply because it doesn't mean that we are powerful but he likes to bring it up to twist the reality to fit his agenda.
Well it didnt look like a smart move ,it ended up making u guys look like cowards
They are, it's just more obvious at the moment.
First of all, no matter the spin put on it - USA was voted OUT, we didn't leave.
Second of all, as stated in her article's comments, I feel sorry for Molly Emma since she had to follow up two months in which you destroyed foreign affairs by occupying Canada and wasting millions of USD in the process. While that was going on, Brazil was wiped out, Spain was wiped out. Wasn't Mejico wiped too?
These were all allies needing American help. Instead we focused on being Imperialistic with Canada. Derp.
In the end, Molly Emma say what was going to happen while trying to clean up YOUR mess and signed the NAP with Argentina. Saving our relationship with Sirius was already no longer an option at that point.
Congrats, bro... YOU SCREWED AMERICA.Good work!
Maybe you should been your own man instead of someone's puppet.
thank you.
In that case, the USA will commit.
what is the timeframe for this operation?
This is something I did find quite wrong on our side, regardless of the sudden calmness in central Europe. I do believe it goes deeper than a mere NAP with Argentina though.
And Keers behaved like he has sand in his thong.
either that gets un signed
or i'm resigning as CP
SG
and recommending the alliance is dissolved immediately
Unsanctioned nap with the enemy. Check. Wtf are you talking about? Ofc he is pissed.
He shows true leadership skills by saying "My way or I quit and I'm taking my ball with me."
Had I been a rep... I'd have moved to remove him from office.
Can I just ask people to use some logic here. Is Sirius in any kind of shape to be kicking out members unless it was totally necessary, yes or no? It should be obvious to anyone who has played this game how desperately bad things had got for us to be forced to remove USA.
Molly might be your friend, she might be doing fantastic things at home, she might be super active in your channels but she has totally neglected to represent you properly in Sirius.
I'm sorry it had to go this way.
People sadly refuse to believe that we can have a part in the fault on this matter. They so desperately want eUS to be the strongest and best ally on eRep.
Oh... i ADMIT USA is a shitty ally. I've said it time and again.
But i'm also saying that Keers is only giving a half-truth.
You're the ones giving him the bullets.
You OBV have no idea of whom you are speaking to - LOL
Thanks for playing.
LOL Gnil has gone off the deep end. You used to know how to spin this type of crap, now it just screams out desperate. What happened to you?
Gnilraps, you know I have massive respect for you and it saddens me to say this, but this is absolute nonsense.
We constantly ignored Sirius alliance priorities to focus on our own, which is fine to some degree - but we completely overdid it by setting priorities to Canada over Sirius battles, NAPing Columbia and screwing Mexico,(they're not Sirius, but pro-Sirius), we barely helped Brazil and European battles, and to top it all of we screwed over Spain, showing we're not true 'allies'.
Yup. See my above comment.
" is like masturbating with sandpaper."
There's something wrong with that?
Nothing, as long as you lube up with paint thinner first.
I had been using kerosene, as it's a bit cheaper, but I'll have to give that a try.
If you're using kerosene be sure to have an open flame handy in case something goes wrong.
You really have lost your "spinning touch" sad but true. You had us waste our time and resources on Canada and this is where we are now.
Remember ctrl. "murica is not to blame" Ye right. This is all your doing.
lol at Gnilraps.
Well now might be a good time to try and buddy up with the serbians, burnt most of the other bridges it seems. Besides the Serbians are fun and seem to like us enough to want us to be friendly in the past (other than when they were wiping us lol). Can't see where it could hurt us worse than where we are now anyways!
All hail Molly!

FIST
Again as a loyal subscriber, Molly inherited a bad Foreign Affairs position... the US was wasting millions of currency on a war with a strategically useless small country! And from I know of US politics having spent time in your party and MU, there is not much room for admitting that was a mistake nor a "bad Foreign Affairs position".
Unfortunately, Sirius did not tolerate that position for another month and voted the USA out of the alliance. Best thing for you guys to do now is put your hands up, critically assess yourselves and man up about it before you really get isolated.
Munches popcorn, laughs.
I didn't read any of the comments. I just voted this article so ****ing hard.
