Geez, Jamie, I wasn't aware that this list was closed from the teeming
masses. But, anyway, any post that mentions my name concerns me. Perhaps you
forgot to read that part of the original post.

Furthmore, I guess addressing what I wrote rather than my game status is too
much for you to handle. (And who said I wasn't in the game?)

And to ease your obviously anger-clouded mind, my propaganda is realizing
that there is no good or bad, or right and wrong side. I call it as I see
it. I see your anger and spite; I see the silly demonizing of Cendage b/c he
is simply better at diplomacy than many here. And, of course, I realize that
in attacking cendage with stupid little semantic/ideological games, you are
openly commenting on your childlike vision (simple dichotomies) of the
world. Or maybe you know this and are just a wannabe fascist at heart.

It's amusing that when I talk to other players in this game, I don't get any
whining, complaining crap about the musketeers and how evil they purportedly
are. Instead, I simply get an analysis of personality (Maltar is a good
leader, but not very farsighted; lord foul can't be trusted). They don't
turn their disagreements with the musketeers into evil vs good, or right and
wrong. To them it is simply a conflict of ideas and theories and armies in a
political arena.

Of course maybe that's why I like the LOTC so much. Within their ranks they
don't play little fascist mind games. They are much more tolerant and
democratic than you obviously are. Although i add that they aren't the best,
or most powerful, or even the prettiest (actually they are pretty damned
ugly; belgians are very hairy). But they assume that their players are
intelligent and don't feel the need to whitewash the politics with
not-so-subtle word games to convince their members to be good little
soldiers.
