Power's Edge: Web of Intrigue - International News for Turn 27

From the NewsWire:

From the Grapevine:

A secret message has leaked! One player reportedly sent this message to another:

Hi, Sorceress! I am very honored that you want to talk to me, since I am only a little pony and you are a mighty sorceress. I don't have any enemies and don't have anything to do. I am a bored pony, but I guess it is better to run around in my pastures than to fight nasty wars. Today I am glad that you are talking to me, because that means that I don't have to move any of my ponies around. That makes them tired if there is nothing to do. But if I don't do something then a mean guy bursts into my room and yells at me and calls me a sire. A lady pony can't be a sire. So this is better.

A secret message has leaked! One player reportedly sent this message to another:

My men report sparkling white teeth shining from across an enemy border. This mutual neighbor of ours is like plaque and gingivitis to you so my people will try to perform dentistry to help. I request peace or an alliance for the cleaning up if my men are unable to do so.

Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between The Watchers and W.T.Sherman.

Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between Harald Hardrada and H. Hornblower.

A secret message has leaked! One player reportedly sent this message to another:

I have just read my confirmation of inputs for turn 27, and have realised that I have made terrible mistake and accidently sent a force into one of your territories. I am trying to reverse the command, but if this is unsuccessful, then I will return the territory to your control and reimburse you for all losses. My humblest apologies.

Observers report seeing a diplomatic message pass between W.T.Sherman and TwoCool.

Emissaries of Batu carry this message to all:

Potato, I am not assigning fault or blame. I was going to start a war, you saw it coming and acted first. No fault, no blame. Just a war.

Emissaries of painted dog carry this message to all:

Mr. Potato Head, a treaty unaccepted is nothing, plus there are 3 chances to reply [2 diplo, 1 global (others have accepted treaties globally)]. You attacked 1st. you could have attempt diplomacy. Plus I globally gave an alt addr of communication turn 20, rallisport@go.com

Emissaries of The Watchers carry this message to all:

Friends, I now have a new embassy: The Watchers (at) subdimension.com (munged to stop spam). Hawk, don't evade the question! A simple yes/no would do. Many don't read the Yahoo list.

Last will: 214 to Elessar, 266 to Watchers, 291 to Hawk, Nashville to H.Hornblower, 307 to Tahgar, death and havok to traitor Tzu...

Emissaries of Ima Noob carry this message to all:

Balzar - Give the land to me and I will enjoy your women, eat your harvest, dance upon your warriors corpses and desicrate your grave!*** Potato - so it is not only your mind that is slow then.

Emissaries of Harald Hardrada carry this message to all:

My actions against Tzu are completely honorable and 'declared'. After acting in the naughty manner he has, he should be prepared to meet those he betrayed like a man, not beg for reinforcements and cry foul

Emissaries of Kirdel carry this message to all:

I am actually preparing a potion to make one looses his ability of speaking. Maybe I should throw it at Hawk and Sherman? I feel tired reading their never ending complains and messed up explanations. Magically yours, Sorceress Kirdel

Emissaries of Hawk carry this message to all:

Oh, that honorable Hornblower! He made peace with Sherman, so that Sherman would not attack him, but sends units to Tzu to attack Sherman... Oh, that honorable Ubuu! Many friendly words, and than a massive force invades... And Shaitan and TooCool bravely kick the guy while someone else holds him...
