Tears alone don't douse the blaze.

Not pirates. Privateers.
Privateers holding King George's letter of marque, thus making them traitors to King Charles, and who deserve to be hanged like, precisely, pirates.

I'm glad my coffee mug was resting on the table while reading this

"Broken" is a hackneyed term at this stage of development, but I do agree about the lack of game features for diplomacy. My opinion was that this total absence of game features about diplomacy tied to european mainland, would make this game a typical food chain with the playerbase being the only deciding factor. And that was mildly disappointing.
It turns out that the community took matter in its own hands, for the better or worse.

Nothing pleases more my eye than the mighty Mighty Bouff eventually acknowledging fire is in the house. If we had to collect all your earlier bombastic statements about first "reducing Spain to one port", then "sufficently humbling then", then "send the French packing", that would be prime material for a masterclass in shifting rationales.
"We're not retreating! We're advancing in another direction!"

There there, I demand that if this is evolves into a full-blown flamewar, it shall at least be done with class.

Monsieur Bougainville,
A local French firework show, sponsored by DAS BOAT peace keeping events, is always a
dullimpressive show. Nearly as excitant as the music for the Royal Fireworks in LondonWith regards.. captain Swieb.
While cannon fire is music to my ears, I had this particular one from Haendel in mind.

It's 8 hours cooldown to purchase flag again for the same port, unless devs changed that
You had me double-check on my watch that there are actually seven hours between 19 and 2AM

Aye, every other action this evening looked quite dull to me in comparison

On the south-eastern front...
At last, at long last! Showing our true colours, are we?
Perfidy, thy name is Albion!

And I thought we French held a monopoly in bitter factionalism... You mean to take *this* from us too???

My intimate conviction is that it is a british bulldog that is currently gnawing at your heels

I don't see us two having a common border on the East. You might be confused between two shades of blue.
-
What's with this encirclement fantasy? Are you crediting us with having doubled our playerbase overnight? Thanks for the flattery.
-
Although we are Pirates so we would have just rammed everyone until we blew up if it looked like we might lose.
This makes me wish to "take the black."

Rob of a bigger victory (though of course we did capture a Victory in our victory).

One 3rd rate and two ports. Deal.

Did you not like my reply to your report?
Of course I did! Such a display of pompous arrogance confused me one moment into thinking you were one of us
Although you could use being lazy like us too. See, I for one, can't be arsed to retrieve the name of the English 3rd rate's captain whose surrender I gracefully accepted yesterday

Your irony detector appears to be broken, sir.
Seriously, what's with the shortage of wits nowadays? Are you all going to let your island sink into an ocean of bile?

That'd be the Dead Sea indeed.

That is yet another fine demonstration of our superiority in all things fashion : white is the classiest, for it is not merely a color, it is all colours in one.

In my view, this exchange sums up the whole difference between the French and English language:
English, being concise to the extreme, to the point that sometimes a groan will suffice i.e "You ran away!"
French, being
awfully verbosenaturally sophisticated in its expression until it kills the audience with boredom : "All we made was the instantly accurate assessment that this situation was needlessly going to be a turkey shoot and we left you camping your port alone thus reclaiming the initiative for ourselves in the most daring manner, commissioning on our way a composer to write a Te Deum to our magnificent abilities to outmaneuver the enemy in the direst circumstances, leaving the only unfortunate casualty of the whole affair being the proverbial British Humour, fallen a collateral victim to the guns of Old England."- 4

That's how you know a french player who isn't actually french, he will be the one using french without making mistakes in each word.
I've used the word french a lot there, french.
It sounds like I'm swearing. Frenching french.
tr.v. frenched, french·ing, french·es

That's because we worked hard on our map reading skills : after 30 seconds it became clear that we had the overall cohesion of the Gaul tribes, whereas ye redcoats looked as flexible as a freight train in the plains of Canada.
So much for loading our bus with tourists. Although personally, I came here for sipping daiquiris too.

This is a coalition war, there is no separate peace you can bargain for.
Siempre estamos con los nuestros hermanos de España.
