Interviews Discussion

[Roberts]

[Any discussion for Interviews, should be posted here instead, Cpt Jack]

Great Thread.

I personally think after you have talked to all the kings that are still active : Talk to people that was part of the last war... England vs Midway , Cuba vs Midway and hear both sides of convo

I would be willing to talk about it.

Best laugh I have had in ages : he ( sorry, 'He', We (sorry, 'we') must be not impolite to such an August Personage) should be on the stage, or in a circus, anyway....

Yet more twisting of facts and slanting of reality : TPK complains about Spanish banking power, this 'tumor' as he calls it : but when we look, what do we find?

Tokelau : 4 banks : total of levels = 20

Midway : 5 banks : total of levels = 15

Spain : 4 banks : total of levels = 9

Mexico : 2 banks : total of levels = 7

Wow, that's odd, downtrodden and oppressed Midway seem to have far more banking power than tumorous Spain : even adding the now-departed Mexican banks to Spains total doesnt give us any great 'hegemony' : let's see how the metric described in my 'banking power top ten' (Herald suggestions thread) would rank them :

Tokelau : 69
Mexico : 41
Midway : 39
Spain : 39
England : 19
Cuba : 16
Bermuda : 13
S. Africa : 1

How bizzarre, yet again, poor old Midway doesnt seem to be too disadvantaged by the plots of the evil Spanish financiers.

The elephant in TPK's room, of which even he dare not speak, would appear to be Tokelau, who have evidently mastered the banking arts with some success.

Its the same old nonsense of claims of disadvantage where none actually exist, not unlike, a few months ago, the accusations of so-called bullying of Midway by Spain with excessive hits on their fleets : going back 100 days in port battles showed that for every 2 hits by a Spanish flag on a Midway player, Midway managed 5 on Spanish flagged fleets : we should all suffer such 'bullying'.

Next, we discover that whilst the former Barbados citizens who fled to Spain taking ports with them were 'hiding' with the implication of cowardly conduct : the recent move to the Midway flag by former English citizens, taking ports with them, is nothing less than 'a diplomatic triumph'.

Which sums it all up, really : Grade A, prime Bull-dust, liberally sprinkled over reality and called truth by those who would see us all on bended knee before them, oh sorry, that's 'Fulfilling the historic destiny and selfless mission of uniting all pirates under one True Flag'.. and happily for TPK, under his leadership, well, its for the best, it's historic, don't you know?

The Actual Press Release

The Way of the Pirate Kingdom Grows XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Today, a Grand moment of accord and unity have been reached by the peoples of Midway and England alike. A house of pirates divided against itself benefits neither party, such conflicts can only advance the aims of those who hope to escape pistol and cutlass. As such, the gentlemen and women who have, until now flown the Pirate banner, have united under a common national hideout somewhere between the mid and far west of Avonmora, though under the Midway banner . This historic union exists, at least in part because of the poor character, toxic personalities, and general inadequacies of other clusters of porates. To this purpose, a union of purpose has been reached to restore appropriate order, dignity, and noble character to the proud tradition of piracy in Avonmora necessitates a putting aside of the menial differences that once stood between the two nations. The new union of Pirates stands ready to handle whatever future lays in store, be it a new peace, or a restoration of hostilities. Any ship,fleet or nation is cordially invited to discuss friendship, terms of lasting peace, or whatever else through usual channels.

"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."

But I'm sure the Prince would agree, the wise leader never believes it themselves...

[MAjesty]

Danik, would you please leave our press release at the bottom of the page at least for a little while, and if you want to talk feel free to message me. Being rude in forums isn't exactly moving forwards.

Once Again,

Wasn't being rude at all, merely pointing out some errors in your perception of events as mentioned in the interview, which is the topic here on the 'interviews' thread, not your press release, which more properly belongs in its own thread or, at best, on the more general Herald thread.

[Roberts]

Interesting Interview yet again , maybe there could be a part III or have you ( The Pirate King ) Have got nothing more to discuss? Or is there more, may i ask? Not being rude , asking a serious question.

[MAjesty]
