Looting

You're sure not holding back on the looting in Lorient. The troops of Itorunt are doing a rather respectable job of looting the place to the ground. --Indirik 14:20, 3 July 2006 (CEST)

Yeah, well, like I said, Clermont was judged slow by Itorunt standards... but at least we're doing the more honourable forms of looting. Taxes and food, I believe. No rape, murder and pyromania for Itorunt troops, unlike Perdan, who revel in such acts. --The1exile 19:30, 3 July 2006 (CEST)

More honorable forms of looting? I'll have to remember to tell my troops that their parent were killed by honorable looting, instead of dishonorable looting. They'll sleep better that way. :) --Indirik 04:50, 4 July 2006 (CEST)

Huh? We haven't killed peasants. Peasants don't die of lack of gold. --The1exile 05:14, 4 July 2006 (CEST)

Why loot in Lorient and not in Clermont? Because Clermont was originally a region of one of the Southern Federation's member-states. As such they are entitled to decent treatment. We are returning Clermont to the fold and thus treat them with leniency as their allegiance to Perdan was unwilling. Lorient is Perdanese through and through... for a little longer. It is necessary to make them understand in no uncertain terms that they will now answer to Itorunt and the South. The harder we drive that lesson home now, the better things will be for everyone in the long run. --Walsh 01:33, 5 July 2006 (CEST)

New Format

Yay! New layout! --Ichigo, Kurosaki Family 21:58, 1 July 2006 (CEST)

I like the new layout. Very nice. --Alex 06:57, 3 July 2006 (CEST)(DeSyrr Family)

I hate it! The bright colors hurt my eyes! -Doc Primus Family

Hey, thats the Itorunt crest for ya. It would have been Purple, yellow and cyan but the links screw up on purpleand I can't so the CSS on the wiki. --The1exile 05:14, 4 July 2006 (CEST)

Ubent Tournament

You're not starting these newspaper wars again are you? (Didn't you recently leave a comment on the KI or OR paper's page about them doing the same thing?) Atticus is new at this, and made a simple mistake. It's not like your math or facts are 100% correct, either. This stuff would be a lot more fun if we'd help each other out, and not ridicule each other. I've fixed the math. I have no idea what it costs to run a tournament, so I can't account for anything other than the prizes given. Regardless, the 20 gold fee is pretty high especially for a tournament with so low of a prize. --Indirik 04:08, 19 July 2006 (CEST)

Newspaper wars can be fun as well, assuming that everyone can remember to stay IC, and preferably in-article rather than in-talk. I've already reminded people of that on the talk page of an older issue, and looking at my characters, I'm fairly sure I can't be accused of bias one way or another. Incidentally, the cost of a tourney is only, AFAIK, the cost of the prizes - not sure, it's been a while since I've looked at the 'call tourney' page.

Ok, I used a little inter character knowledge there. Calling a tournament on the far east cost the ruler 770 gold, the prizes were 200 and 100 with 10 or 15 gold entrance fee I think. I believe that the extra costs depend on how many nobles can some to your tournament.

And for the record, I did try and tell you OOC before I wrote that. --The1exile 17:59, 19 July 2006 (CEST)

Nine Hells of Baator

Is this a new religion Itorunt professes? What news do you have of Baator? -- Aurum Bishamon Family 23:55, 19 July 2006 (CEST)

Well, it's kind of complicated. I don't think it's official, but it is a concept most of the family has stuck through for time immemorial (except for San, who deviated a bit). I suggest you have your scribes do research on the topic. --The1exile 23:58, 19 July 2006 (CEST)

Oh dear! What a horrid place! Do you imply that Caligus has become one of the nine hells of Baator? Or is it all nine of them? -- Aurum Bishamon Family 00:02, 20 July 2006 (CEST)

No, the phrase is simply a saying. But if Vlad carries through with his threats, it will be my pleasure to send him through all nine and then to the bottom of the abyss (and yes I know that's somewhat obsolete). --The1exile 00:05, 20 July 2006 (CEST)

Eh, don't become a monster though. I enjoy our frienship, but if you take pleasure in sending people to such places... -- Aurum Bishamon Family 00:07, 20 July 2006 (CEST)

I don't, generally. But if he does what he threatens, I will avenge it. --The1exile 00:09, 20 July 2006 (CEST)

Itorunt and Yssaria getting their asses handed to them

Good surprise weren't they those walls :) And why do you call us monsters?? Celeste attacked us first with a dagger to the back and the Ysissies have ben looting our lands since they broke through Supra. Anyway Alex why were you so quiet at the battle you seemed very talkative at the battle of Ubent Castle where we last met... Oh well I guess you will continue to attack our realm with your pen. Until next time. --Lumberjack 16:58, 22 July 2006 (CEST)

OOC: I was inactive most of that turn. Also I find it a bit against the lightweight aspect of the game that you could buiild walls immediately then which pretty much takes advantage of the fact that the leaders of Div I are on GMT and CET, and therefore asleep when you did it. Annoyingness. But hey, if it's fun for you thats good.

IC: We'll be back. Also, was it not the Caligans who have been assaulting OUR allies (Yssaria), and aided OUR enemies (Ubent)? Then to expect nothing to happen is hardly reasonable, but then to threaten her life (especially when you couldn't even keep her locked up there, perhaps instead of those walls you should have built a better prison?) goes too far. --The1exile 17:31, 22 July 2006 (CEST)

Well I'm from malta the walls were completed at about 9 pm so that it would be after your early scout reports. You probably fell asleep after I built them--Lumberjack 20:16, 22 July 2006 (CEST)

Actually nah, I was out at a gig, it's the beginning of summer w00t. --The1exile 20:19, 22 July 2006 (CEST)

OOC From here on in

Could you please stop this nonsense?
Your Article is enough allready.
You shoudnt overeact this more out of Game.
Discusion pages in wiki should be OOC if i am not mistaken, please keep it decent.
You guys didnt even post my message where i threatened about the Itoruntian infiltrator, so thats why I requested IG Vlads duke to post them so you could all read it in horror.
Thank you, Nosferatus.

Where does it say that? Seriously, for over 6 months all pages attached to the Newspaper have been IC unless stated otehrwise. I have nothing against Caligus OOC, except mauybe a it of distaste towards the name, but my character thinks its time for them to die. --The1exile 14:33, 20 July 2006 (CEST)

Gah, you win alex - I was never good at math, and I didn't know tournaments cost money to host.
