Talk:The Oligarchian Observer/Edition:9

Take a look at Itorunt Informer/May '06. We got over 1150 views for our april publications! Therefore, we win! Muhahahaha! Well, not against both of your papers together, but still. --The1exile 2 May 2006 09:41 (CEST)

TO keep this IC lol..... IF Oligarch had kept true to its word, it would still have a chance. In the past Oligarch broke more than 4 agreements involving peace and other things. If it kept its word, Perdan would assist more, and who knows their forces could match some of Sirion's! Not securing food for the seige, and all those people could be fed if you would surrender. But Oligarch's arrogance for fighting to the death is leading to deaths of thousands of Oligarchians. Which would be better for the remaining citizens? A complete wipeout of the customs of Oligarchians and values, beliefs, etc..., or the lives saved and the war ended. Much of Avamar has left Oligarch spare a few. Why go down like them? When sparing your arrogance of fighting to the death for the lives of 80000 Oligarchians! No butcher is happening, but to let you know, Most of the nobles in Sirion don't wish to see the peasants starve like that. This war will be done with soon whether you guys surrender or take down innocent lives with you. RP Watch this infuriate many people lol muahahahah let the crap fly Dan raymond May 3, 2006 04:32 (CEST)

Actually, Hireshmont, if yopu ever take a look here... Do you think it would be possible for us to put our records on the Records of Battlemaster page? Might be a good place to refer to while throwing mud. Let's see: Most Pathetic Newspaper: the No Space Press. Most ganged up on newspaper: The Itorunt Informer. Paper with the most squirrel commandos: the Oligarch Observer. And, most oblivious paper: The Caligan Courier. What do you think? Oh, and the war isn't over yet... at least not with Caligus, since they will die out soon, it should be really easy to find dirt on them. Alex Exiled/--The1exile 20:37, 3 May 2006 (CEST)

Not much has happend in Oligarch Lately? Seems like you might be in a bit of a stick situation ScottSabin 19:30, 6 May 2006 (CEST)

Widfara headed to Westmoor only to find that he was the only guy there attacking the Fontan and one unit of Sirion troops. How am I supposed to join Oligarch? Plus he's seriously wounded now. That's what you get for being banned from three realms... and counting... --The1exile 23:09, 8 May 2006 (CEST)

IC (Letter from a reader): Twiddling of the Thumbs -

"Ever wondered how Coimbrans felt while they were waiting for their capital to be assaulted by Oligarch, Perdan and Avamar? Now you know. And if Oligarch city was to be taken before Commonyr, you'd also have an idea as to what it feels like to sit in the countryside without troops for days, waiting for something to happen. I wish you all the best for the future, hope your new realm will ease your suffering. It never eased mine...

With high respect:

Sir Adam, former Coimbran soldier, friend of Tod, Duke of Westmoor, future king of the Kingdom of Coimbra"

Every day I think of Coimbra's death, it is very saddening. However, with the death of Oligarch, many past wrongs can be made right again...as we bury the past in hopes of a better future. Soon, Most of the Island will enjoy Peace...something that has not existed in the East Island for a bit over FIVE long years! -Doc

Yes, I have sympathy for Coimbra. To be backstabbed by your own allies at the very last, its a pity really. Wish you luck, hope you die! -Hireshmont Vellos 13:20, 18 May 2006 (CEST)

Coimbra didn't backstab Oligarch, Hireshmont! Ignorant fool. Lysander insulted the Coimbrians, and belittled them. By doing so he alienated the Coimbra/Fontan alliance, and then went as far as to piss Doomgiver off. That is what sparked that war, in case you didn't know. -Doc

What a noble speech good Hiereshmont. It is always a sad thing to see a realm go, especially one so fine as Oligarch. This is only a testament to the utter lack of goodness in the East Continent. --Legatus DeSyrr 00:02, 20 May 2006 (CEST)

Doc, you amuse me. I wasnt referring to Coimbra backstabbing Oligarch, I know very little about that time in history. I was refering to Fontan's seizure of their last region, Viseu I believe? Then I suppose Fontan killed Eleador too, in Montijo wasnt it? I believe COimbra and Fontan were on good terms with each other, so to be so betrayed by a friend is a true pity.Hireshmont Vellos 00:05, 20 May 2006 (CEST)

Fontan taking Coimbra's last region wasn't a 'betrayal' by any means. You should do your research a little better because once again you've only shown us how little you know--and how much you assume. If Fontan betrayed Coimbra, why would Fontan want/plan to bring back Coimbra? You lack even the commonest of senses... -Doc

Fontan betrayed Coimbra, but was for a long time their ally. Plus, Coimbra was doomed anyways, with one region left, and a townsland at that. As such, I can understand why the Coimbrans went to Fontan, a longtime ally, who essentially delt a coup de grace to their realm. Fontan wants to bring them back because of the problems with a large realm. Sirion can handle a large realm, as can Perdan, because of simple geography, especially in SIrion's case. Where Fontan is, such a thing is not nearly so easy. As such, having a stalwart and loyal ally in Westmoor is quite logical. WHo better to place there than a realm with historical backing? COimbra! Plus, you can call on people's memories of alliances, even if you did backstab them in the end. Its a simple propaganda and policy tactic, one I would think you would understand. Hireshmont Vellos 00:55, 20 May 2006 (CEST)

Sorry, mate. You see IF consent is given, it is not a 'betrayal' or 'backstab' as you put it. NO propaganda needed. Coimbra was doomed, no City, just a Townland...a realm without a capital. Much how Oligarch is going to be very soon. Therefore it was a logical move for Coimbra to give up Viseu to Fontan, move many of her TLs there, and wait for a better day. A day where Fontanese forces could bring her back...that is what you call trust. Think of it as this, Choose to save the Baby(future) rather than the Mother (Past). -Doc

Well, be that as it may, I find Sirion amusing right now. You waited for vastly greater odds fighting us than you did against Avamar. I believe that you could try and explain that away with various ways, but I think that, deep down inside, you and your entire realm is afraid of us. I've seen your realm conversations, your unnaturally wary of us, like you're afraid of something. Rather funny really. I understand why, of course. Hireshmont Vellos 04:16, 20 May 2006 (CEST)

We don't write our history in Blood, Hireshmont. So yes, the mild-mannered Sirionites are rather fearful for their lives...one mistake...and they'll end up on the pages of Oligarch's History Books: literally. -Doc

Well, I must say, Doc. Congradulations. Another realm destroyed in the name of peace. After killing, in all former Oligarchian lands, about 50,000 to 60,000 peasents, and about that many military personnel, after casuing the deaths of dozens of nobles, you've done it.
