I wanna be a pimp dammit, but it won’t let me sign up!
WTF!!?!??
Is there an SD cartel in redlite Atlanta?
Demanton, not that I’m aware of.
Demo, sounds good to me. Knock 'em back into the stone age. Let’s make it sometime this (5/23) afternoon? It’ll give me some time to build my thugs back up, not to mention scrounge up a few spare turns.
Dunno where you are, but how’s 4-5 PM PDT sound? Odds are I’ll be playing this at work (I’m bad, I know), so as long as it’s not lunch time (say around 12-2 PM), I’m all for it. I’m still not sure how the attack levels work for redlite or pimpwar, so shall we just assume that I’ll attack the highest ranked guy and work my way down?
Manservant, I’m all for merging the alliances, but I’d feel bad leaving and/or disbanding while there are still members under me. Did you send out all the invites already? If so, I’ll join you guys soon as SD is empty.
Man, these games are entirely too much fun. 
Dagnabbit…
Senor Hidalgo just killed about 230 of my thugs for no apparent reason (got no money, got no cars, and lost more thugs than he killed. Now I’m seriously low on thugs. Any tips?
Hmmm…apparently senior_hidalgo [sic] had a bit of a Pyrrhic victory, falling waaaaay down the list and losing his cartel. I took the opportunity to kick him in the groin. Feel free to do so as well.
Apologies for starting the OLTL party early, but due to timezone considerations I won’t be around for the grand assault. Still, I’ve left Antonio_Vega thugless and Bo_Buchanan seriously weakened.
Give 'em hell.
Ok, folks, you have more allies against the onelifetolive bastards. They are now fucking with my gang, a fairly lightweight outfit these days. Bo_Buchanan jacked my cars, knocked off a few of my thugs, and has generally behaved like an asshole.
We’re in on the grand assault. Don’t mess with anyone in donkey.farm.productions.
I’ve been working on RJ_Gannon(1046). I’ve knocked him down to 133 thugs thus far.
Well, the first StraightDope Cartel war seems to have gone off without a hitch. There’s nothing left of OLTL but free hoes.
I can’t figure out how to get back in the game, the server seems to have vanished.
Once we figure thatout…
I’m getting attacked by the dREADY alliance in Pimp War.

Could I get some help?
I was having the same problem.
I had my bookmark set at lowrider.pimpwar.com and I finally just tried http://www.pimpwar.com and I got back in thataway.
Hastur, I’ll try and help, but I’m in LA right now.
Speaking of which, my rank went from the mid 6000s to mid 300s by moving. FWIW. I don’t have alliance protection tho, even if I’m still a member.
Unable to help you Hastur, sorry.
Since it was a short game, I was just experimenting with the moving. Now I can’t help you all. I’ll work on coming back, but I need a lot of cash…it may take a day.
JiggaBallz (#21352) is in the heeyowse.
My hoes and my dogs are fittin’ ta raise up and
get their money on. They were askin’ me if we
could hook up wichoo.
Much respect to you and yours.
Hastur, I can back you up against at least one of those guys. But they’re packing some huge ass numbers of thugs and if they’re all AKed up like my guys are, taking on more than one of 'em will hurt tons. One on one, I’d take any of 'em on, though.
Coordinated assault, anyone?
KK, I’m there. I just got back to NYC after a nice vacation in LA. Who do ya wanna go after? I’m guessing the newest guy, #22130?
FWIW, I made it (nationally) to #308 in LA. Moved back and I’m back down to #5258. I did make about $400K in the few short hours I was there, tho.
Heh, Pimpwar newbies … how cute. You can all give me your pimp numbers and i can relieve you of some of your nasty crack abusing hoes if you wish.
I’ll give y’all a hint though … buy condoms, lots and lots of condoms.
That would be local, not national … or else you’d still be ranked 308 when you moved back to NY.
Mind cluing us in fellow Doper? And WhyTF are you not in our alliance or inviting us to yours?
That would be true.
::off to buy condoms::
If StraightDopeKillahz fills up, dopers are welcome to join my alliance, Sirius_Cybernetics … there were a lot of resets and problems with v5 and i lost a lot of my crew, and a few others got bored with the game, so my alliance is pretty small right now … Tyranus #3401
Another tip: Unless they reworked the attacks for v5, in a home invasion, you’ll kill 1 thug for every 151 shots you fire … alliance thugs are a bit more accurate, they’ll kill 1 for every 31 shots fired (but they only carry pistols).
And lowriders, contrary to the Pimp Bible, don’t make your whores earn more money … they said they were going to do that way back in v3-beta, but they never got around to putting it in the code, unless they snuck it in for v5.
