I'd love dongs please, some dude (apparently a career goon harasser) has smashed me down to 870 nation strength :argh:

Oh you have been attacked by RUKUNU.
Yes, he is a famous goon smasher. Consider him the final boss of your training.

Guess where we got the name for one of our squads?

Thanks to the financial/military injection I just got I can stomp him now, it'll just take a little while. Looks like he's attacked a few other dudes too.

Something heartwarming about goons drawing enough ire that a guy keeps making new accounts *just* to attack their newbies over and over.

He does not make new accounts afaik. He was RUKUNU for ages, and he just kept going and going.

Personally, I think RUKUNU is a sock account for whoever is in charge of goon training at the time. I cut my teeth on RUKUNU. Everyone cuts their teeth on him. He's the training dummy that never breaks or goes away. He just never stops attacking new goons, like he thinks thats going to drive them off or something. All it ever does is give them their first taste of combat.

I never got attacked by him.

I remember when funding wars against RUKUNU was a pet project of mine. Good times. I am pretty sure we had him down to the lowest Nation Strength of all nations at least once. I have to respect that tenacity and dedication.

I've heard.

The stress of Doomhouse's internal bickering and trying to herd our various allies is part of what made me withdraw from leadership in the first place. It didn't surprise me at all that things fell apart on that end shortly afterwards.

To be fair, when your allies are alliances of the caliber of the ones you were allied with at the time... :shrug:

I liked a lot of our allies at the time. A lot of good groups that were dependable in a fight. In wartime they functioned great for a long time.

Many of our allies did not like eachother, including ultimately our two closest friends. It made for unstable and frustrating ground as a diplomat and, for a time, Co-Pilot. It was peacetime diplomacy that made me quit, not irritation over Goons' allies being bad at Cybernations.

Are all the famous OWF spergs still around? Because some of that stuff is arguably as entertaining as the actual in-game trolling. I remember it as a wonderland of indefensible positions, strawmans, circular logic, and extreme obsession with self-righteousness. It was simultaneously tragic and hilarious.

He must have someone supporting him or know how to game the system really well, he gets up remarkably quickly given how many fights he's in.

He has a few guys giving him secret foreign aid, I believe. And possibly that new-ish wonder.
