Grats to RRR for winning | R31

[Antinoobkiller]

now nothing can stop them from winning so lets all hail them for their victory:)

[f0xx]

Ha ha ha. You make good fun of yourself.

[Nitrous]

Stop embarassing yourself. The round is not over.

[Elderveld]

Its far from over! now we can organise a proper resistance! and belive us, it will be there!
We are just giving RRR some time to become inactive, and thus we can stock seeds, then when the time is rite, we shall return the pitchforks wich were left behind when they pillaged our city's and left them in the burning body's of our wife's and kids.


revenge will be sweeeet!!

[atsanjose]

We are just giving RRR some time to become inactive, and thus we can stock seeds,
thats the same mistake everyone makes, every round...

I am thinking it's going to be a battle for second from here. RRR are basically the same alliance as War? Huh? from last round, which we all basically agreed was the best defensive alliance, and they've shown this round they were out for their revenge. Well played politically and in-game.

Actually...it's 10 WH, 8 Chance and 2 TDL.

Best from each ally.

Didn't know you had Changer and Godsend. Suppose you learn something new everyday.

[MattM]

I was going to post something on a similar line to Chewie. I didn't even realise Chance had a 'best of'.

And, to stay on topic, I have to agree, I can't see RRR not winning now.

[timtadams]

lol, there is no way RRR arent winning now.

But i think they will grow out of range pretty soon actually, and have a pretty boring round. Too bad for them, so much potential wasted :(

Hehe, but funny all the people saying that the round is far from over, thus implying the possibility of them being brought down, and clearly being wrong :mrgreen:

[Dark_Angel]

In the words of harriergirl. This thread gives me lulz :P

[pinpower]

lol, there is no way RRR arent winning now.



And THAT Is the number one reason why they will win...

World: Time gone: 16.84 days. Time left: 59.16 days.

Just over 2 weeks in and people are saying stuff like this, no wonder resistances almost never work...

[IceOfFire]

Trust me...I want a resistance to come! 60 days of doing nothing...pfft!

[Cheese]

Split into two allies and resist each other :D

[DarkSider]

The irony .. last round them 3 on top vs Polo's gang now them 3 under.
I'm really looking forward to see if later in the round the probable good relation between DA twig and JJ can work out and get RRR to it's knees :P
Everybody said you're a bunch of noobs, time to prove you have some skill even if it takes 3:1 :D

[Ogluk]

bring on the resistance!!!!!! give us something to do other than brute force for acres, which is exceptionally dull :P

VIVA LA RESISTANCE!!!!

[Scorpio]

You know what would be a REAL challenge? Restart and try to get #1 again! :P

[Maxi]

You know what would be a REAL challenge? Restart and try to get #1 again! :P

I'm quite sure they'd be able to pull that off, too.

As DS says, will be interesting to see what DA, Twigs & JJ have in store for them! Make sure they don't take advantage of that huge acre lead too much, guys. ;)

I think DA actually teamed up with RRR for the first weekend or so, to help them take down JJ and Twigs. Maybe I missed something?

[Scorpio]

Theoreticly - yeah it's possible, the #2 - 7 alliances working together could beat them, but from experience I know this isn't going to happen. People are way too lazy to do organised resistance attacks, and more importantly too lazy to keep doing them..

This laziness combined with the high skill level @ RRR makes me feel almost 100% sure that they will keep that #1 spot.

Have fun being bored @ the top guys :P

[timtadams]

lol, there is no way RRR arent winning now.

hey, im solo, what am i gonna do. If i had the time and was allied i'd try organise something, but i dont and im not. And people are lazy, we saw that last round.

*btw, my first post was reverse psychology propaganda

[Max]

I think that now is the time for all of the best solos to come forward and show that you can do well as a solo even without the PS option :D

Where's DORO when you need it eh? :)

TBH that's not entirely true... it's the best of the players who would be playing actively this round. A slight, but subtle difference ;)

Thanks Ram.

In reference to me. (Not f0xx)

Back on topic. RRR have a pretty good lead blah blah blah. Not over.

[ZigZag]

Funny reading through this thread. I hope you know this was done by 17 out of 20 members 1:1 with no assistance from other allies. Of course some of them piggied to take easy land.

[Enrico]

Well unless rank 2-4 start

a) cooperating
b) recruiting help from rank 5-10

RRR will win.

If they want to give'em a fight, a need the resistance organized, gimme a call. ;) Until then I doubt RRR is going no-where.

[timtadams]

You know, RRR should go public

It would be better for everyone, unless they are a buch of scorequeens...

[Ram]

I really don't see what RRR going public would do o.o

[Scorpio]

your ally is the only 5-10 ally that has ever cooperated. and that was 1x.

instead now i attack these days and everyone is on board that they want to attack with me but pussy out when it's time. you just don't want me to attack you (the 5-10's).

Um those who say are 'with' me better have a representative to me within the day to 'help' and you better attack or all 'resistance deals' are off and I will attack you with gay abandon.

[Twigley]

Why would they need to go public just a few days after beating the rank 1 ally down, and a week after beating the ex rank 2 ally down?

Score Queens? No.

[tobapopalos]

Um those who say are 'with' me better have a representative to me within the day to 'help' and you better attack or all 'resistance deals' are off and I will attack you with gay abandon.

You do everything with gay abandon.

[Garrett]

it's more fun?

[Silence]

I would think that it is in fact more fun to read the bull **** in this thread. Actually just timtadams. ZOMG WE ARE SCORE QUEENS. We hit the alliance who was rank one until we were rank one on our *own* then DA got bashed for being rank two Heh.


Yeah such score queens. I apologise. I mean what the ****, in comparison to last round we should be getting ****ing cheered based upon all the **** about "ZOMG A GROUP OF 20 SHOULD WIN ON THEIR OWN"

timtadams I feel that you are useless. Everything you contribute has been useless. Please I implore of you, stop replying.

[Garrett]

*cheers for accomplishments* *then cheers for resistance*

rrr fought hard indeed.

hehe I gave him rep for that too! :D

And thanks Garrett; we don't expect to sit on our laurels... we won fair and square and now expect to have to fight to retain our position. I have no doubt you will give us the fight we're looking for!

[Garrett]

lol. maybe i can, or maybe we'll all just be targets to retal so you get fatter when we try to resist :/ lulz

[Alcibiades]

lol. maybe i can, or maybe we'll all just be targets to retal so you get fatter when we try to resist :/ lulz

definitly not. i quite like his fresh young innovative mind.

much better then the older dusty members in here.

anyway to go back to topic....

wtf silence did your dog die?

and

you got a call from North Korea, they want to hire your Nuclear overreactor

[Garrett]

so let me ask atsan. the fact that RRR overcame a few alliances means that they are scorequeens?

if that is the new direction you are hoping for, then i'm glad I'm an oldie.

nope. i just dont concur with the jumping on the "lets shut up this fool once and for all for making a silly comment"-bandwagon.

thats bad management.

bushwise.

i dont care about ingame related affairs and politics that much

so we must mollycoddle the people who should know better and encourage their foolishness? He made a ridiculous statement, and was ridiculed for it.... while it may not be necessary for multiple people to jump on him, it was a pretty thoughtless statement without much reference to either the players involved in RRR or the events of this round.

And you should know as well as we that shutting timtadams up once and for all is about as possible as stopping an avalanche with a toothpick and a 4 inch length of floss.

Also, the north korea nuclear 'overreactor' comment had me in stitches. Hilariously well written, was it a genuine atsanjose original or did you get it from somewhere else?

[NoobCake]

This thread absolutely cracks me up...but to make a couple of points I will add...

The round is FAR from over, and to give up against us because we are rank 1 and being so "skilled" as I keep reading about... just proves that last round was all about noobs powerblocking??? I mean so many argued and said that was not true, but now that the 3 alliances are the bigger ones..."its over" just makes me laugh.

Going public would do nothing for anyone at this point as Ram has already stated...maybe in the future if I feel like it we MIGHT go public for ***** and giggles, but meh...

The alliance started out as core group of players that I play with and after recruiting some WH players, others kind of came as well...filled in the gaps with a couple of others and RRR was born... I am not sure where all of the specifics came into play or why people care, but yes it is a kind of hybrid mix of two very strong groups where each had been together multiple rounds. Lucky for me to be able to snatch them all up ;)

Anyway, thanks for the congrats for a job well done up to this point, but please do not be so inclined to give up so easily. You never know unless you try!!

Hero

[Lupus]

well said hero

now bring on the revolution!

[harriergirl]

:popcorn: Bring me more lulz

[ViVi]

Jesus. It's not a 3 alliance power block. How can you all have seriously given up after two weeks.

Granted, I am not playing so there's perhaps facets I am missing yet I cannot see how it's comparable.

[IceOfFire]

I've tried so hard not to post on this thread as it is just stupid! But i feel i have to now!

So we are currently winning, and but a moderate score...But resistances have worked in the past and will work again! It seems you guys instead of doing some hard graft are just going to moan about it!

3v1 as it stands and im sure you will find some more to help you out if you tried! So instead of moaning and crying about it, come play with us! We are more than happy to show you what we are made of!

To those who called us SQ's in here...

1. We asked for all wars 1v1
2. We took down Enmity alone (They were bigger)
3. We took down the S2N alone (They were rank one)
4. We got what we could off of Fail (We were bigger and most had a MoD but still)

Basically playerbase...Grow some balls and hit us, don't moan about it! I'm sure TBA still has its joint ally channel running, hop back in it!

[timtadams]

hello peoples,

I guess I should apologise for expecting that most people would realise I was only joking around. I admit I wasn’t very clear.

Firstly the initial statement was meant in a jocular manner. I just thought RRR should go public for the sake of it. Like you said, it would make no difference. I could quote myself when I said there is no stopping them now as proof that I new going public would make no difference. When I said “unless they are a bunch of scorequeens” I did not say that they are. Maybe I implied that they are, but it was simply a playful stab. Of course not going public doesn’t mean that they are scorequeens. It was just a playful stab.

After reading Scorpio’s response I realised that people could easily interpret it the wrong way and so quickly replied with QFT to Scorpio’s post telling me I fail. I thought that would make it clear. My mistake.

I don’t insult myself. I replied like that expecting that people would read it and realise that I was only joking around. I guess again that I should have been even clearer.

So I am being really clear now. I was joking around. I was not being serious. Don’t think I am changing my story. My response to Scorpio with QFT is obvious proof that I was just messing about.

Silence, I forgive you for insulting me since I was not clear enough in the first place, and I don’t blame you for getting pissed off. I don’t think RRR are a bunch of scorequeens, OK? And good on them for doing so well. Like I said, it was a playful stab.

So everyone* can take a deep breath and calm down (including myself :P).

See that, not a single profanity in that post, not even any in a joking way. I am trying to be civilised about it., mkay?

*Ok, not everyone, but certainly everyone who got jacked up by the issue (like Silence), yes, me included, I know I got pissed off by Silence’s insulting response

[DarkSider]

Jesus. It's not a 3 alliance power block. How can you all have seriously given up after two weeks.

Give up ?! Who's giving up ? :o
TBA TO ARMS !!!! :D

[f0xx]

Tbh, this round just illustrates what would've happened last round if there was no powerblock (have in mind that each of the three alliances now is considerably stronger than what they were last round, and that RRR seems a bit weaker compared to WH).

[tobapopalos]

I think RRR not running away with the round to start with actually worked in their favour. If they had then the TBA alliances certainly would've jumped on them. So if it was just the WH alliance from last round they might've lost for being better than the RRR alliance from this round.

That's just my speculation anyways. Who knows what would've really happened :P

PS. I'm not saying that RRR aren't as good as the WH alliance from last round. I have no idea which is stronger.

PS. I'm not saying that RRR aren't as good as the WH alliance from last round. I have no idea which is stronger.

The reason we did not "run away" with it in comparison to the "TBA" alliances is because:

1. They had a spy in Fail and fed on them (We did not)
2. They had Ailli's IDs and fed on them (We had the IDs but DID NOT hit)
3. They attacked together (We did not)

We were always stronger on LETs and Devs, they were only bigger as they had been farming two alliances...Get your facts right people :D

[f0xx]

Yes I am aware of that IoF, and I agree with you too Tobi. I am just throwing my 2 cents.

PS. I have screenshots of WH last round at they 2 before we go mashed by 7 alliances and we had more land than S2N (this round) at that point. So my opinion still stands. Besides have in mind that I know a lot of people inside WH/RRR who can make quite an adequate comparison between what WH were and what RRR are.

[tobapopalos]

2. They had Ailli's IDs and fed on them (We had the IDs but DID NOT hit)

And we were very appreciative of that :P

Having one competent alliance hitting us as well as three incompetent ones might've been too much for our brave soldiers to deal with :(

[alexx]

You didnt take down emnity alone. Maybe it was ur intention but fail amongst a few others joined in.

Not that you wouldnt have been able to take us down 1v1...

[Garrett]

which was absolutely silly to have as if TIR needed spies. there is no pride there and thanks for telling everyone that you are willing to lie when you are in an alliance.

anyway on enmity it was rrr + fail + ailiphilia for the first 2 waves. then it was just rrr, fail and ail were going to attack anyway. ail did, except we stopped when 2nd20 were starting to retal. fail probably kept up attacks to get more land.

anything else i couldn't speak/speculate on.

Garrett is right Nitrous...As much as i like you...Why would you spy firstly? Then seem so smug about it?

Huge loss of respect for you!! Really really big loss.

[Tombi]

I don't understand why people are calling RRR scorequeens, last round fair enough 3 allys powerblocking the top but this round (so far) they haven't been top all round they war'd all the other allys in there way and they won, GG to them.
I wonder howlong it will be until accusations of a one ally powerblock?:P haha

No one is calling them scorequeens. I made a freaking joke and everyone started to have a cry about it. I thought i made that clear, but obviously not

[Garrett]

well we can only post so many times 'no one reads for comprehension on this forum' :D

you post at your own peril!

[Antinoobkiller]

I think RRR got very much help from garrets resitance and without them RRR wouldnt have been in this big lead.. SO i think Garrets minions did a very good job in harrassing fail,enmity and sn2 til rrr could fight what they wanted on their own.

Well its understandable cuz of last round but still I think they got lots of help from GM.

OK, This is what I think more or less. And I know RRR is winning now. OK

[harriergirl]

And a spy in TIR. ;)

TIR was riddled with spies. As far as you go Nivet, I didn't trust you before and I trust you even less now. If RRR had a spy in TIR they didn't use it. It was the tba allies that ganked them at the beginning of the round. IOF it's not the first time Nivet has spied.

Kudo's to TIR for still being around. I personally couldn't take looking at my ally and knowing at least 5 of them were potential spies.

[Alcibiades]

And a spy in TIR. ;)TIR was riddled with spies. As far as you go Nivet, I didn't trust you before and I trust you even less now. If RRR had a spy in TIR they didn't use it.

I can almost 100% guarantee RRR didn't have a spy in TIR, let alone a spy anywhere else. We didn't do *any* ally attacks til spies came out; and even then we mostly concentrated on randoms and our own personal landfarms.

I'm not privy to all the information we had or it's source; but i'm fairly certain we didn't use spies to get it.

There is also a fine line between actual planted spies; and chats between friends which let slip certain indiscretions. With all the top allies pretty much knowing each other and other members, there is lots of PM/backroom talking that goes on.

Officially, RRR didn't use spies. We didn't need to ;)

I'm not privy to all the information we had or it's source; but i'm fairly certain we didn't use spies to get it.

There is also a fine line between actual planted spies; and chats between friends which let slip certain indiscretions. With all the top allies pretty much knowing each other and other members, there is lots of PM/backroom talking that goes on.

Officially, RRR didn't use spies. We didn't need to ;)


We had no Spies, making enemies was not in our favour and being rank 1 was also not in our favour. So we made no efforts to get both.
Don't take that as saying "We didn't want to be top". We all tried hard, but if wanted to bash the ally lists we got given then we would have been equal on land with the others. Politically we did no alliance raids.

My view in the first week is unless you're rank 1 by a long long long long way, you don't want to be there, it worked well for us.

I also feel we could be taken out, and not wanting this to come accross as arrogant it will be tough, we're probably equal to W?H? on contactability and activity but this time we have a vast land and troop advantage.

1. Rape
2. Rinse
3. Repeat
4. Kill/lock up the rapists? :/

[Garrett]

j00 time is commin! mah troop set up is your bane! rally to me players.

[Nitrous]

which was absolutely silly to have as if TIR needed spies. there is no pride there and thanks for telling everyone that you are willing to lie when you are in an alliance.

What I meant by my original post was that S2N had a spy in TIR and got a **** load of land of us. I was adding to IoF's list of what they had done (or at least pressumed to have done).

S2N were the ones who were bashing TIR, and I am sure Twigley/some of the other S2N players will clarify that I didn't spy. Yes, I jumped ship. But I *didn't* spy. End of story.

[Twigley]

We had no spy, just one of their members leaked info to one of mine, and i was able to manipulate the less expeirened members of TIR, and even the ones who should of known better that their ally was full of them.

It was funny, i got pms from 4/5 people frm TIR when we massed them asking if JubJub or nitrous was a spy at the same time and i used the names they gave me and said sure ... ;D

Spies are rarely planted, they just come out in the end when they are unhappy with an alliance..

And they are real easy to catch out with some common sense - (Brett last round got kicked within 10minutes of plotting against my ally)

Now, back on topic.

RRR haven't won the round yet - there's still hope, however small it may be. :D

[timtadams]

well we can only post so many times 'no one reads for comprehension on this forum' :D

you post at your own peril!

I am slowly learning Garrett :D I might get there one day, who knows :P

[Mysterious]

First post in a while for me.

As a member of War?Huh last round...wooo go you guys :) Well played, and rape those powerblockers :) Enjoy all.

[Dark_Angel]

I've now quit r31.

Main reason being that I've found leading Fail. far more demanding in terms of effort/time, than I remember when I last led an alliance.

I won't be leading again in the near future - lest I find myself with copious amounts of time on my hands :P

I'll return to play after the Summer, when this fantastic weather abandons poor Britain again =P

-

My sincere luck to the Resistance - all is not lost if you guys hold it together.

My congratulations to Hero, for putting together a team of shockingly active, easily contactable, seasoned players. I havent seen an alliance work better as a team in quite some time.

You should chat to hero, he has the best ability to lead a sucessful alliance without any effort at all. Its utter brilliance in my honest opinion. That's your problem. You have done the micromanaging and deligated no power. It's all your fault being a poor leader

Surprised? I swear I raised this issue before but was laughed at for being scared at the pathetic resistance attempts. Oh yes:

RRR have proved themselves to be the most active alliance and the most contactable. That is the fundamental reason for the rank.

So to really sum up, the resistance will be a waste of time.


So yeah, it was really =)

And the comment that the resistance is not all lost? . 1 of the leaders quits thats an active alliance gone from the resistance which at best has medicore alliances, and fail was the most active in the 2 attacks which came our way. So yeah,,, RESISTANCE DOWN.

Finally Darkangel, you will never receive the Darkangel award because you just didnt try as hard as rank one to form that resistance, and the round is boring? That's funny. A powerblock was more fun where you had no targets? L.A.W.L


DARKANGEL DOWN.

My round got boring/the round was more hassle than it was worth. I stopped having fun a fair while back.

I quit.

That's all there is to it really :/

-

As for the Resistance. No, they don't really have much of a chance. But then the game mechanics for a resistance to work aren't really there, IMO.

This round is testament to the fact that we need the AHQ overhaul asap. If 4-5 alliances resisting RRR can't do anything to beat them that's proof enough in my mind that we need in-built AHQ functionality to help stop the game getting "placid" when an alliance takes the lead. (In instances where, as with this round, alliances below rank 1 choose not to fight it out amongst themselves but instead sNap, leaving themselves with few targets, but are then able to stay low and starve the rank 1 alliance)

But thats a discussion for another thread.

Oh and Silence, you get the Sorest Winner Award. Nobody in TBA was half as big-headed when they got ahead/won last round. I'd be more annoyed about that fact if I hadnt realised everbody else is reading the same egocentric, self-indulgant crap that I'm reading.

Try being more like Martin, Polo, Kuda - guys who are not only grade A players, but remarkably don't feel the need to draw attention to their successes at every glimmer of an opportunity. For that they have my respect and I'm sure the respect of the playerbase. Can the same be said of you?

[Silence]

Oh and Silence, you get the Sorest Winner Award. Nobody in TBA was half as big-headed when they won last round.

Someone said something about me being away for 18 months, and that I couldn't be any good because of this: I said I can't have missed all that much as I was top 10. That isn't big headed. Its a response to an accusation.

Last response to this thread, as there's quite simply no arguing with someone so egotistical.

My only contention with your whole post is this. The sign of a true and dedicated player comes from when they're having a shitty round and it hasn't turned out to their expectations and they keep slogging through anyways, right up until the bitter end.

Do you think last round it was fun being WH and Chance when we got massive incoming from you guys (incompetent tho it was)? Did we delete? No, but we stuck it out to the bitter end.

perhaps you have real life issues going on but if that is not the case and you're simply deleting because you've lost then i can't tell you how disappointing that is to me. If anything is going to rip the guts out of the resistance it's going to be the leader of one of the main and most active resistance allies deleting. Not to mention the fact that you more or less declare the resistance to be dead; i'm sure that'll help motivate the troops.

It probably won't affect Enmity or S2N that much; but it will certainly reflect poorly to the other lower alliances in my eyes when they see a leader of the one of the top 3 (sub rank 1) allies delete because they got bored of this round.

In my eyes the mark of a true player is the one who sticks it out through thick and thin, shitty rounds and good rounds; bad attacks and good ones etc. I think you get my point....

contactability + activity > * in this game. Once u learn the basics/units it's piss easy. The Reason why RRR are winning is because they are more active+contactable. Not because of 'skill', the skillcap in this game is very low.

dont fool urselves...

Activity and contactability are not the sole vital factors that lead to winning. It is exceptionally useful, but there are plenty of active people who suck. Knowing how to play and how to work together is just as vital being active and contactable. I'm sorry you're so jealous of our win; considering we won so skill-lessly. Hell we only beat 3 alliances 1 Versus 1 and then crushed the pitiful resistance attacks that came our way. Think, digest, rethink, then post. Follow this rule and you will look less like an idiot.


My congratulations to Hero, for putting together a team of shockingly active, easily contactable, seasoned players. I havent seen an alliance work better as a team in quite some time.

Thanks. We were driven by the results of last round to prove what could be done, and having successfully done that we feel pretty good about it. Silence was integral in organizing a large percentage of those attacks that took down S2N and Fail so for him to be arrogant on top of his usual behaviour is to be expected. I don't necessarily agree with all the taunting that goes down on this thread but if you care to take a glance over the threads of last round there is a *lot* of taunting and gloating on the part of certain other members of the TBA alliances. Call this one karma!

I did'nt particularly mean any of the current posts. But I have seen certain posts which have gone way too far. Usually they are deleted fairly rapidly, or edited. Its just when every post by a member of the forums seems like it is set out to be as destructive or detrimental to the thread as possible it begins to become annoying for 90% of the playerbase.

Well the reason it didn't go quite as far is because there was respect between allies.
However due to last round any respect that was once there has gone out the window for an entire group of 60 players.

!

I'm just saying a big part of ur 1v1 wins was because your contactability > ours -> we get ppl zeroed. im not jelous because i know i probably couldnt be in a rank1 ally(altho i was last round but that was solely because of powerblock and you were too weak to rush us effectively) because theres too many hours im not contactable. And one of the reasons you crushed the resistance was because you had _all_ of your members ready to atleast send out and also imo, our tactics sucked.

And ofc there are ppl who are active that sucks, but when uve learned the game it's more about what i wrote.

[Polo]

you were too weak to rush us effectively
What bullshit. Those people rushing TBA last round killed far more than they normally would rushing any other rank 1 ally (apart from ViruS in r13 perhaps :P).
And one of the reasons you crushed the resistance because you had _all_ of your members ready to atleast send out
Not all. I was uncontactable on holiday in Las Vegas (which you guys knew about and you didn't even try to rush me :-/).

yeah you killed us because we werent contactable, still you couldnt kill us off (i could often scare you off alone with my xxx amount of jeeps) because you were too weak because of the powerblock constantly suiciding/landfarm on you. See?

And about you not being contactable as far as ive understood we tried to attack you? I dont know your ID, you being in vegas. im just a sheep who sent where they told me to send.

[alexx]

As for rushing: our Biker players thrashed your POM players so badly you guys stopped buying NLDs and just massed flak. how is that us failing to rush? As for being unable to take you guys down last round it has more to do with the fact that if WH sent on one ally we'd be immediately retalled by the others. This paralyzed our ability to attack rather than any inability to rush you effectively. We brought SG to their knees rather quickly but stopped shortly thereafter due to a lack of steam and the imminent counter attacks. I'm not surprised you don't understand this since learning about basic units is, as you say, 'piss easy' but actually learning how to play the game effectively is another kettle of fish entirely. Also you personally don't have to be always contactable when you have 19 others members to back you up, not to mention 40 others who will retal for you when so ordered. The 'resistance' last round was essentially Chance/WH versus 3 much bigger alliances. This round it is 5 alliances versus 20 of us. Do you see the difference?




Did i ever say that war huh/chance sucked? I actually wrote that you didnt win because of the powerblock which meant you couldnt attack us very effectively. With effectively i mean it didnt really matter, not that you didnt do any dmg.
[

Again that's not entirely true; being active and contactable is only useful in a defensive scenario, being skillful requires being able to steal land, trick people, launch clever attacks and deceive your opponents. There is more to this game than simple contactability and activity. Some day you might find out what it is.


yes, did emnity/fail/s2n/ailiphilia ever have problems to steal land?

Are we as contactable/active as you?

FAIL just FAILed and DA FAILed even more.

RRR are where they are due to the players skill to get there.

Are we as contactable/active as you?

You will never win a war by being rock solid on defence unless it's combined with the ability to go offensively and rape your opponents into the ground. That is the combination of skill and activity, if you're active enough to steal land en masse with ally attacks, there's no excuse for being unable to defend actively. Period.

You stole land early on because you had spies who gave you IDs. Thus you rushed ahead at the start of the game and massed flak to mass more people while we teched and bought LETs and hit randoms/solos etc and then we beat you bloody. You also jumped on the bandwagon of the allies we killed or you massed 2:1 on smaller allies. That isn't skillful playing my good man, not by a long chalk.

Another point of order must be caddressed is that we had an excellent route setup for the long term but not for the early game; Twigley predictably massed PBs and POMs and so we went for armour and by the time the S2N battles came around we raped; which was also helped by them having a 'bad weekend' and not having organizers around. Luck and Skill play a large part in this, as in many other, games. Skillfully chosen route setup :P

Enmity, Fail and S2N are or were mostly contactable. Aili is also contactable although i'm not sure to the same degree since they aren't or weren't going 'FTW'.

[alexx]

Enmity, Fail and S2N are or were mostly contactable. Aili is also contactable although i'm not sure to the same degree since they aren't or weren't going 'FTW'.

When you guys hit us i can tell you we didnt get more than 10 people online. But yes, your route setup > ours and our teches got ****ed due to that. meh muh t_t :o

Also: RapeRinseRepeat alliance members have been marked as online for the most amount of ticks.

You stole land early on because you had spies who gave you IDs. We never had any spies afaik. Ailihphilias ID's were pretty easy to notice due to their name-theme...

Pffft, RRR have more skill in thier pinky toes than you can imagine. Yes contactibilty and activity are way too important in this game. But to discount the sheer amount of experience and knowledge that is in that team makes you seem like an absolute fool.

shut up you noob. stop crying that your not at the top

BuBbLeS

im not. rrr deserve their rank1 spot. i just dont understand the need to flame the other allys when its _mostly_ due to their activity/contactability. The difference isnt as HUGE as some you seem to think.

Yes rrr have probably had the better tactics for 1v1/defense but i doubt there were 20 ppl discussing the tactics when you sent at enmity/s2n/fail or deciding the route setup.

[Garrett]

we're semi contactable because we don't want to be absolutely mullered. we're stil for fun, but hopefully through my alliances demonstration this round - you don't have to have activity to do well, you just need to have FUN.

We're having fun by not being a defensive alliance and being an offensive alliance and somehow we've pulled up into the top 3.

Now as far as resistance goes, I'm up for hitting and resisting. It's what my ally is about, but We've not taken part because other alliances are being massed other than RRR.

When the resistance is serious about coordinated efforts to hit RRR and is willing to take attack plan input from others, then My Troopahs will fight to the very last goddamn man.

That's a promise.

[JJbrosandjl]

Right, I think I should just post something to explain the situation here a little. RRR is a good alliance, sort of like WH, and no one is doubting it. I do, however, agree with goku. Although there is definitely skill amongst the RRR players, the difference is not significant. As long as you have an alliance that is extremely active and extremely contactable. You can do relatively well.

To be honest, the flames on here are kind of getting ridiculous. I don't mean to point our names but Ahead, Silence and Alci. :P All three of you know I have tremendous respect for you guys, and I still do to a certain extent. But the unnecessary flammings are really getting on my nerves. What the hell is the point of proving that you are better by arguing over the forums? I don***8217;t understand why you guys feel the need to say words such as ***8220;noob***8221; or ***8220;stfu***8221; etc. You can illustrate a point quite well without using those words.

I realize that by posting this I am going to get flamed (what a surprise), but honestly, I really don***8217;t care anymore. I just want to point out that, apart from being on different sides every round, RRR and TBA aren***8217;t that different themselves.


Let me illustrate this using examples:

Last round, FeR was rank 1 by miles, and he suicide on SAS. Everyone laughed at him, including our own alliance :P. This round, Polo suicide on SAS early on as well. And if I remember correctly, he was one of the biggest players in the game. The only difference was that at this point RRR did not have the victory yet. So wouldn***8217;t you say Polo***8217;s suicide had a bigger impact?

Again, last round TBA were flamed literally nonstop for their infamous suicides. This round, the tables have turned. RRR are now on top with other allies playing defensive. I***8217;m sure all the smaller allies have the BRs to prove it. Emnity alone have several BRs where we***8217;ve killed roughly 3 tril and lost nothing. Sure, the typical excuses can be used, but again, this just reiterates my point that there is little difference between the two groups: Both allies die on attacks. In fact, RRR***8217;s suicides are worse because they don***8217;t even have the round locked up. Of course, no one dares to call RRR noobs because simply, they have big names. But ask yourselves, deep down, are our tactics really that different? Or is it that TBA were just made fun of because they were full of noobs instead of big names.

Another example is bashing. Yes we have bashed with three alliances. But round after round, alliances have bashed several on a tick. In fact, this morning, one of my members had 6 incomings spread over two ticks. Sure, you can argue that TBA bashed with three alliances, but fundamentally, both allies bashed.


Of course, in all three examples, you can argue that TBA was a 3-ally powerblock. Yes, that is true, but what you made fun of us for was not because of our powerblocking, but rather our ***8220;skill,***8221; (or lack of skill :P). And yet, it is pretty evident from this round that both groups employed roughly the same tactics.

The point I am trying to get across is that players should stop flaming each other and show more love on the forums. There is absolutely no point in flaming each other, other than for ***8220;LULZ***8221;. I***8217;m fairly certain no one in Emnity, Fail or S2N have boasted about us killing RRR on defense (unless you can prove me wrong of course), so why was it acceptable that WH did so last round?

Just my two cents anyways.


Edit: Just for marvin, "bullshit"

[Garrett]

well i think it was because it took three to do what 1 can. I may be wrong

[Enrico]

i dont get why its so hostile :(

FAIL just FAILed and DA FAILed even more.

RRR are where they are due to the players skill to get there.

simple tbh

BuBbLeS

But was it Epic Fail? Oh I think not!

[Alcibiades]

JJ, you're not wrong for much of what you write, but there do exist a few discrepancies which i feel should be addressed.

On a personal level I object to being lumped in with Silence and Ahead, if you read what i write and what those fellows write they're different. My personal opinions don't vary too much but are couched in slightly more polite language. I only called alexx a retard because he was behaving like one. I'm never one to mince words or to mollycoddle someone simply because they're new. I was never treated that way when i was a newbie or stupid player on here, people told me what they thought of my ideas and opinions and i got angry, flamed a bit, and got over it. that's the nature of putting yourself out there on the internet. I object to being called simply a 'flamer'. If you have further objections to my patterns and posts on these forums i'd love to read about them in my PM box, you know how to reach me. /personal defense over.

About Polo's suicide, we mocked him mercilessly in RRR, in fact we still do from time to time so i'm not sure what the relevance of your point would be. Everyone should've laughed at Polo for SASing himself and still should be, it's funny ****!

As for last round and those 'infamous suicides' i mocked them in general more because you guys massed pure flak for several weeks without bothering to buy LETs while we had LETs and just raped pure flak. That is why *I* personally found those attacks to be appalling. I've seen better tactical sense emanate from a rock; and that's being unfair to many a good rock I know. Sure 'you only lost flak when attacking' but 200-400m flak equals a good chunk of score and a comparatively decent number of LETs.

As for RRR members suiciding this round, I don't know what excuses they are publicly showing for themselves but there are lots of reasons. Varying from 'I think the defence is fake, could be real but i'll risk it' and being wrong and dying. fair play to you guys, good job on faking us out :)

There are also times when it's a blatant egg on by one of our members, Hero was pretty much goaded into staying and got completely zeroed (4.5 trill or so).

Other times people just forget to recall or whatnot. like i said, plenty of reasons.

For *all* of the above, many of us mock each other internally about their silly noobishness. Our players have lots of skill, but like all human beings are not immune to what are all too human failings. We are not automatons, we are not 24/7 contactable robots and we do make mistakes. We don't (or shouldn't be) touting our mistakes as 'oh we meant to lose flak and all our LETs to lose score so we get more targets' as some certain TBA members did last round. Loads of people say that when they die, but they mean it more as a consolation prize to getting their ass whupped then as any real reason for deliberately zeroing themselves. See the difference between this round and last round? People should be calling our players n00bs when they suicide stupidly, i certainly don't hesitate to do it, and i don't see why others should hesitate either; other than *possibly* being polite.

Of course, in all three examples, you can argue that TBA was a 3-ally powerblock. Yes, that is true, but what you made fun of us for was not because of our powerblocking, but rather our ***8220;skill,***8221; (or lack of skill :P). And yet, it is pretty evident from this round that both groups employed roughly the same tactics.
Speaking again from a personal angle, I would have to say i mocked you guys for both. A powerblock was pathetic, and your attacking was also pathetic. Mass flak + no LETs on a very very tight defensive team was just insanity. And to boot it didn't really work unless you massed too many of us to be able to defend them all like in a few waves. Only once you finally started buying LETs en masse towards the end of hte round did you manage to crack our defence occasionally.

I'm not one generally given to 'showing love', especially to my enemies but there are plenty of people i respect in this game who are currently my enemies this round. They just happen to be, for the most part, in Ailiphilia for whom i have tremendous respect. If you want to be shown love, i'm sure the Teletubbies can be found on the internet somewhere for free.

You should be boasting when you kill us on defence, especially if it's something to be proud of. Why not show off something of which you are proud instead of hiding it in the shadows? We were proud that we thrashed you guys on defence for the majority of last round and you only won through massive numbers of players, and not through any obvious skills. I'm sure you have skills, they just weren't demonstrated last round.

My 2 cents.

EDIT: Enmity have the tightest defence of any alliance we hit this round. Not so much at the start of the round, and definitely not when we were warring with them but once they're teched they require a large number of people to get through. Kudos for that.

Thats a fair post Alci, and most of it sounds pretty reasonable. But tbh, our flak amount was pretty much the same as yours this round, I *think*. We had around 200 mil each and so do you atm.

And also, it's not that we *want* to hide in the shadows when we win BRs. It's just that we don't find the need to post it just to boost our E-peens. We are proud of what we do, but at the same time, we understand that we may win small battles, but the war is not won yet. Maybe if the resistance takes you guys down we'll start actually posting. But for now, we won't post anything that will spark a flame war >.<

As for what you said about Emnity. I, on behalf of our alliance, thank you for your kind words :P We hope to keep it up! I do have to say though, our route set-up was pretty crap for the start game. No RPGs, no EMPs, and no sorcerers, and our 3 Pbs were extremely inactive. Of course, we lost to a better alliance, so not extremely bitter about that. To be fair, I think Fail is having a hard time dealing with your incomings for precisely the same reason. As far as I know, they have 0 strikers and 1 RPG. That, against a armour heavy ally, has pretty much been their death sentence.

Pfft, route setups are no excuse. If you want to do well (and aren't doing something stupid like 17 Thugs, 3 Poms... :P) then you should create a decent setup for your alliance using your knowledge of how other leaders/players like to play and any tactics you want to use. That's what I do pretty much every round. :P

As i recall, and christ knows my memory could be flawed ;), but i remember you guys having almost only flak, or the most part flak. We have a few members who are flakwhores (Silence, hero amongst others) and very few LETs which is utterly reminiscent of many many many TBA members from last round; at least for a large portion of last round. You of course had a few sensible people who massed appropriate units; but in general i remember you being largely flakwhores. Maybe that is just magnified by the fact that there were so many of you so the ones we saw the most of were just purely flak. *shrug* Just seems that way to me.

Fair enough; not my general style and approach but whatever floats your boat really.... I'd use any and all victories to boost the morale of my people who must be feeling, at least a little bit, downtrodden and beaten after a round start liek this one. But perhaps that is just me.

No problem, we got lots of kudos last round for our defence, i see no reason not to share that particular brand of love despite my usual proclivities. Your recognition that we were better is much appreciated, that's what we set out to accomplish this round and prove that we could do what took 3 allies to do last round. Not to beat around the bush but i think we accomplished that so far. Much is yet to be decided of course...

Fail is/was having a horrible time defending against us. I don't know how much is to do with route setup and how much to do with being inactive, or incapable or just having had their morale crushed. That remains to be seen, but we've had a pretty easy time of it so far on them when they're not in sleepmode of course. Their leader being demoralized, otherwise occupied and finally deleting of course can be nothing if not another blow to an already tottering and fragile alliance. At least from my perspective.

See you on the battlefield!

I quite enjoy some of the condescending sarcasm used in these forums, even if directed at myself. I dunno, it seems to make things a little interesting...

but then again, it often descends into a spiral of flaming and arguments that just get boring and annoying... but that also depends on the characters arguing, and whether they decide to start taking it too seriously

...meh

[Antinoobkiller]

OK.

Atleast I dont need to make a whole solo alliance with SO players to play as solo nor am I safelisted. So I think you have more to show me than I have to show you.

Dosnt matter if you played this game since round 1 or whatever, I have never ever played a whole bushround or even a half round, all togheter I have played 2months bush maybe. Still I seem to know more about the game than you think I do cause you are so imbapro on this forum with all ur leetfriends.

Sorry, I dont wanna sound like a prick but I cant resist cause they way you speak about yourself. Cause I dont think anyone in this game is better than me. OK

In fact I can support this by my rank in game. I dont know anyone of you guys playing totally solo and no safelisting to play as good as I do. I even know for a fact that the other solos in the top was and are safelisted by ppl. Thats utter bs if you ask me, its liek cheating and boosting ppl to the top. really lame noskill gaming. OK

Dont even think for a second that you 10000x better than me in this game just because you have more fanbois than I do. Or because you care to argue with me, and I dont care. OK

Remeber words dont mean crap to me. OK and Im the only one that have proven something this far and all u have come with is words. I dont belieave in things I cant see you know. OK

a quick history leasson, on round 19 top 4 of valuation were all pure solos (who werent associaed with each other in anyway or form, due to pnaps or snaps or solo groups, atleast i wasnt iirc). So what you are doing at the moment is nothing new nor special, and it is infact YOUR route that is the e-z moad route for soloing.

i have not been here for few rounds so i've missed alot, but i believe darksider pulled a nice one with the bunker route as solo not long ago? so please, pipe down for awhile. Even tho your colorfull character does lighten up these forums quite nicely, but some of your claims are just outlandish.

[aGit]

all i can give you is the info from the portal pages last rankings and my own experiences, i was the 3rd one of those, point of hate. the alliance wars on that current round took forever, and by some godly intervention leftovers managed to pull ahead ( who knows how the hell that happened =D, no offence treedude)

By the time the alliance wars had cooled down and it was evident that leftovers would be the one taking the alliance rank1, the top10 of valuation was already held by pure solos. in the end 6 of those pure solo would end up being killed, however the 4 of us remained. Rank1 there is cerevantes, and he is the first one in bushtairon history to grab rank 1 as a solo palyer, kudos to that. i'm rarely jealous of anything, but that feat was a grand one by any standard, albeit it being the easiest round for solos with the lack of a truly powerfull alliance.

if you dont believe me, i cant help that. but oldies who have been here longer than you remember this, and know these events first hand.

Cervantes, steeljedi, Nickk, Hobo, beasteh, TSF were all part of my group. I even remember having some argues with Hobo/Beasteh because they wanted to attack cervantes. Even you later became part of it, because I (TL) was scared of you (SA) and you were scared of beasteh (Ranger).

The same solo group took part in EVERY resistance in that round and in the late stages we were the ones who organsed the reistances themlelf, because I knew if there were no resitances, we wouldn't have survived. It was a good round for solos ;)

Too bad the old forums are gone, I could've linked you to some nice threads from that round.

There was this big BR that round between me and you in which I remember I gained something like 14-15mln EFF. You did more damage to me but after the two BRs I was the winner due to bounty and the high XP of my TLs.

That attack was not a good idea though, because I didn't manage to kill you and now your troops had VERY high XP and you could've easily killed me alone. The evening was coming and I had to go to sleep but I knew you would attack me during the night, so I was waking up every hour and half to run away. You attacked me like 4-5 times that night and I needed sleep badly, so we made a deal. You leave me alone and I make beasteh leave you. You never attacked me after that :P

10 days before round end I became highly innactive and LO killed and land raped me down to 20k acres.
