TBH is too busy following TSP's Embassy thread and posting in defense of their puppet masters. :roll:

Escade, you couldn’t be blowing more bullshit if you strapped a leaf blower beneath a cow. The only interaction any Hawk has had with TSP’s embassy in two days short of a month was a two sentence poke at a logical fallacy I made while walking to class this morning. Not to mention...puppet masters? That’s a new one. Who controls us these days?

It's obviously the Rahl family. They're the masterminds behind the Black Hawks. It is a well-known fact that you are a puppet of the Rahlspiracy and should be ashamed.

Wow time in NS is measured in cycles of a month short of two days anything before that I guess...continues to exist and inform perspectives and actually PEOPLE does continue to exist (double checked because Souls implied that history before the highly selective time period doesn't matter (someone tell Onder or don't we don't want anyone to get panic attacks).

All sarcasm put to rest, source that TBH as a whole has ever cared? The last time TBH made a statement regarding TSP would be 2013, if I'm not mistaken.

Sugar and spice and everything.... ice ;)

Prominent members of TBH, in leadership roles even, have consistently felt the need to pop into TSP or TSP related threads and throw their completely unwanted or uncared about...let's call them opinions about (sorry to tarnish the reputation of opinions).

Then it has been noted that recently TBH's on the field anything (after some prominent members in leadership roles insisted on longer update times as being crucial) has fallen...well short. Very short. Exceptionally short. 10 minutes being the new record. And update is about 60 minutes so that must be 1/6? New lows upcoming?

Decline in Raiding


Once could plot a trajectory that shows the organization's decline in raiding with upcline in the hawkish (plus puppets ofc can't forgot them) spewing in TSP or TSP related threads over let's say this past summer and September (a very very ancient and historical 1-4 months ago). Stagnancy or decline seems to be a common theme among our naysayers.

Makes sense I suppose. They've already established themselves in TNP and Osiris (probably other GCRs too). Anythng to prevent defenderism taking hold I guess.

TBH may be currently miserable at updates, but I don't see any evidence to claim that they're somehow masterminding the destruction of TSP or that the reason they're not updating is because they're too busy focusing on using puppets to denigrate TSP.

Just because others (read: imps, not TBH) are flinging baseless accusations at us doesn't mean we have the right to kick the dog and continue the trend towards someone else.

EDIT: Yes, they criticise and hate on TSP. Yes, they've been often overly obnoxious about it. But let's please not bring another conspiracy theory into it.

Imperialists and certain TBHers have nothing in common? Oh sweet summer child. This is what happens when we don't read the embassy thread and follow which players post in support of which other players and follow which startling agendas. Check out our Embassy thread for those prominent TBH voices particularly around September but also through various TSP threads\discussions.

Has TBH disavowed the statements officially or done anything about it? I don't think they will so I guess that is what the organization stands for since the voices that speak are the ones heard.

If anything they are masterminding their own...stagnancy?

I'm not sure who's in TNP besides long-retired COE, and if you knew me, you'd know I do nothing but bitch about how many Hawks Osiris has swallowed and never spit out again.

If we were really so interested in pushing around in GCR's, seems like we would have been side-pickier when Osiris and Lazarus both underwent internal issues. As I recall it, more of our members who were also in Lazarus were against the new regime than for it.




Gloating over a supposedly defeated enemy whose heart still beats, whose fields still grow, and whose family still stands strong...tends to end poorly for the gloater. But, I suppose that's your business.

Something about unhealthy fixations....

Oh yeah I was re-elected into the cabinet - this time doing even better than the last two elections. Seems like my region thinks I'm doing something right. :blush:

This is incorrect as Balder has a much more active discord than TSP. In the past hour, Balder's main general Discord channel had about 29 unique postings (this is the very early hours for EST and our quietest period mind you). It took TSP's main general chat far more than 24 hours to achieve this same mark :)

TSP has a long way to go, at least when it comes to Discord activity to match Balder's vibrant community.

Theta Gamma Upsilon
Victory. Vigilance. Sacrifice


The Grey Wardens would like to announce that we have undergone a successful re-branding procedure. From now on, under the fraternal principles of Victory, Vigilance, and Sacrifice, we stand as the Theta Gamma Upsilon fraternity and express our unified principles of brotherhood, sovereignty, and hazing pledges to the world. Under the guidance of Chapter President Roavin Bluto, and Chapter Vice President Thomas, the entire executive board is really pleased in the efforts and look forward to continuing to crush it in the intra-fraternal competitions held on this beautiful Nationstates Gameplay Campus. Party at our place on Friday to celebrate. Make sure to keep a healthy ratio, and be ready to have a responsible time with copious amounts of update juice and performance-enhancing scripts being passed out.

In other news, after Yodle's hilarious failure and cheating during his refound of Greece, we decided that it was gonna be an appropriate time to have Daddy show him how it's done. Therefore, with plans of our new fraternity house in mind, we piled 50+ strong into Greece, sat there for four days to establish our dominance, and then expertly refounded the region. There was no resistance, though Executive Board member Altmoras was at the door with a list to check names if necessary.

Huge shout-out to UDSAF, TITO, RRA, SDF, DKA, RIASF, SPSF, TGW Guardians, TOP, and anybody else we might have forgotten. It was a fantastic coordinated piling effort. Faster and larger than what Daddy Onder can do ;)

Following the successful building of the house, the men of Theta Gamma Upsilon headed out to the bars where they won numerous karaoke sessions against some freshmen from LILY.

Rush ΘΓΥ.
