Speak of the devil ...
Quote:Scooter/RB,
We are aware of the fact that you are receiving marble from the Germans, and that this probably is the reason why you do not need the marble now. We are doing our best to be as accommodating on this as we can, but we cannot take your deals with other teams into consideration, as that was not part of our original agreement. We were prepared to offer it to you immediately upon our completion of the Taj Mahal, but you denied saying it was a bad time, which we assume was because of your deal with the Germans. As things stand now, you can either accept the marble this turn (T145), or you will have to wait until turn 165.
Please let us know your decision.

Personally, I don't care about the marble. What about the NAP?

Ask them point blank what they can give us in return for the delayed or non-delivery of marble. We have already proposed a prolonged NAP as a solution.
Furthermore, I consider that forum views should be fluid in width

They're intentionally ignoring the NAP - that much is obvious.

Yeah. But what is missing is a counter-offer.
ETA: And I really dislike their way of performing diplo, as ultimatums with zero lead time.

CFC, I want to hold back the bloodlust from the rest of this team, but you are making it harder and harder to do so with each message you send.

I think that's QotM material, just chop off the CFC part.

I get the feeling CFC would have a much harder time on this if scooter were to catch Caldeorn in a chat and force the issue somewhat.

I've noticed that the CFC messages aren't discussions or negotiations ... rather, they are 'here is the situation - take it or leave it'. I think that we should respond with a similar tone ...
Quote:CFC,
We'll take the marble for 10 turns from T165 ... that will fit some of our builds quite nicely. Also, thanks for agreeing to the NAP extension to T200.
Regards,
RB
The we get to see them squeal about not agreeing to the NAP extension and we know exactly what is what.
