To be fair, you guys didn’t realize the coup was happening for a whole year. That’s not exactly a poor attempt. It isn’t a good attempt but it isn’t a bad attempt.
Please not I am in no way defending the coup. I had no part in it and frankly condemn the actions.
That isn’t true. I suggest you re-read the report that we released. We believed that IKEA Rike was a spy from the very beginning when he stupidly posted an embassy request with CCD the day the operation began. Not only that but he demanded the embassy request in our discord channel. I was MoFA at that time and denied it.
We simply didn’t have the comprehensive evidence of the operations channel until later. There was also no need to out him - it was more interesting seeing what might happen and the power of our roleplay that distracted him from his basic task. Artemizistan was flagged as a security risk as well for unrelated reasons and that operation didn’t get very far either. Nevertheless, a good government and an effective government shows their hand when the timing is most opportune and the information most extensive. Again something CCD would clearly have no idea about.
Finally a real coup would have had the nation at 800+ endorsements at least. They failed to even get beyond 500. They would have been aggressively pursuing opportunities for advancement and trying to win us over. They didn’t advance beyond the most junior of positions that accessed information that was as secure and private as our regional message board. Barely anyone had interacted with those nations or even remembered them. While the attempt may have been laughably bad, it was and is still categorically wrong for CCD to have taken this act of aggression against us.
Ah right maybe I should brush up on that again
I do remember them saying that, thanks
