\o/ Asmo :symp2:

Alliance of the round Hmm .. tricky! If i can't say my own ... then nobody! Maybe DW for doing well at the start at keeping their land this time :P

Best Offensive Alliance Well, define this. Best rushers = Pestif. Thats about it ... Interlude have been succesful when needed to be offensive and pretty much organised every takendown of the top alliances this round ... So yeah either Pest or us ... :P

Best Defensive Alliance Again ... either Pest or Us imo ... We have only ever really been hurt by rushes from Darksider and Cityguy ... any other big incs from pest and enigma we have dealth with easy enough :)

Funny Fact: 20 days into the round - we stole more land from JJ (Pest) than we had lost up to that point :P
I guess interlude have lost the most value this round but tbh if you look at damage had done you will see that it is our POMs that took the damage from rushes + that damn annoying injury bug!

Honourable Mention Alliance Again ... Discworld? Seed for their funny posts :P

Worst Alliance Hmm the list is long ... NCAA (Sorry Recon! :P) for declaring war on us then crumbling to 1 wave of incs after they hit us with pest ... then them putting it on us again and taking it off and deleteing the alliance :o
Enigma for being backstabbers 2/3 times? :P
Khaos for not getting involved in the fights at the start when taking Enigma / Pest down!!!
Desolation for not living up to the start of round hype :( Damn bulgs!

Ill give it to NCAA :P

Best Leader Me :( Ha! No ... hmm this is hard ... nobody :O

Worst Leader I don't want to give this out but im pretty sure you can all guess ;)

Player of the Round - Allied Lukey without a doubt. Kept me and the crew going when times where bad ... organised some nice takedowns when i wasnt there. Good MO :)

Also gets the official gay boy of the round award, Land queen of the round award, times masterbated award.
:D

Player of the Round - Solo None! You all cheat :( Ill give it to subbie :D

Best Offensive Player Grr, DS. ;( All my losses this round are from you!

Best Defensive Player Hmm... Not really sure on this one ... i can only speak of my own alliance and what i have seen and it goes to ME! Ha! No ... im serious.

Honourable Mention Player Gohan for realising the grass is greener on the other side

Worst Player Monkeh without a doubt.

Best Official Helper Darryl/Cal

Best IRC Op Pfft everyone knows the + is better.

Best Forum Mod None

Best Moment of the Round So many :S

* Take down of pest first time
* Take down of enigma
* Take doooooooonws
* Having 20 people online at the same time! :O It was amazing we have had so many players away for weeks this round but we had 20 on at one point! :P

* Winning this rounds points and valuation prolly :P

Worst Moment of the Round Getting spied on before ticks, meaning all our ids and gmt and irc nicks went to Enigma. We know who you are. :( Although the guys responded great :D

Alliance of the round : My humble opinion is that all 3 top allies sucked in a diferent way, so i'd go with DW since they where the only alliance to start public this round. (Reasons: Enigma's activity and dedication was very low, Inter played for a diplomatic valuation win all round even if they have many old players for which imo winning by sweet talks it's nothing worth to brag about anymore. Just last couple weeks since Enigma turned against them they show they have what it takes to be on top, but it's a bit late in the round and they have large military advantage so nothing extrordinary. I'm sure others can point out why Pestif sucked so i won't coment here :D

Best offensive alliance:

Well i started about 25 days late so i can't comment before that, but from what i saw Pestif was the only one having the balls to do 1:1 attacks on other top alliances and they had moderate success vs Enigma. None of the other 2 did succesfull attacks against us (if you exclude the Inter retal when we where full out on them :D), + we gained acres fastest from all 3 :P A bit more teamwork in attacks.

Best defensive alliance: No ideea really :p

Best Leader: Dunno :p

Worst Leader: Might get into trouble if i post this so early :D But i'll do it anyway. I think that Podunk doesn't have what it takes to lead a top alliance, i saw he but his personal anthipathy against Cheese, Silence and a few others before the fun of his own members. Imo a Leader of a top alliance where players are active and dedicated and expecting a bit more than 1-2 random BR's every couple days should have a better feeling of their needs and make some extra efforts to make their round under his leadership a memorable one. He finally decided to step out from Inter's protection and have a more exciting round end but from what i heard he was convinced to do so.

Allied player of the round: Because i like more killing than growing i won't give extra points to those that wanted high valuation and got it :p So i'd say cityguy was imo the best killing player inside an alliance.

Solo player of the round: Didn't looked much over the solo's tbh, only noticed the few solo poms i kept an eye over and Martin. So can't really give an award here.

Least impressive players: I'll only post those that i had higher expectations and their performance was weak during the round.
Cheese - Once he restarted to join the alliance i thought he'll pwn in no time. Silly bugger was getting stoned each night and getting killed on SAS :p Also the moaning for his land was quite irritating :D <3
Silence - Very rude in some ocasions to other players :@ And seems unless he is in vacantion he can't put that much activity and dedication :p (however when he has time for it he has a lot of skill to offer :P)
Drakonius - He put alot of activity and skill into a solo pom account just to refresh and evacuate from biker rushes. Didn't saw him doing any attacks in 1month+. Such a waste :p
JJ - Aparently he is only good at the round start but as i joined late i missed that part. From day 25 --> Useless :P
Zeratul - Heard he was fearsome before but only saw a player bored of the game with nothing impressive to offer.
Also those who left their former alliance who feed them like babies from start of the round just to find protection in a better ranked alliance gave me a bad taste.
I might add a few later :p

Most impressed by:

I'll post a few players i didn't knew much about before but they surprised me well.
Our Aussies are a great bunch: Drew, Enigma and Stass.
Hero and Signer good dedication and activity.
Bami - our trustable SO defence :P
CG - Sorry to say it but before this round i had the old image of you - the guy hoarding acres and seeds and relying fully on the alliance to save your butt and give you a good score at end of round. And for some reason others gave you alot of credit for that :p However this round his "ranger rushes" made alot of victims and changed my image of him alot.

Best foe: Lordie. He was the only guy trying to do something when we had a war with Enigma and even if he had no success it didn't stop him trying again and again for about a week. Also he's good sport and up for a fight :D

Best moments:

My internet died with 3 rushes on Inter (2 fakes and 1 real). I was so sure i'll end up killed and with some crap 15-20% injury that i was already determined to go into deletion as soon as internet comes back. When internet came back i noticed my real rush killed for 3 ticks and all my army got home unscratched :D

Other moment:
<Luthai> Hey DS
<Luthai> u there?
<DarkSider> yes
<Luthai> is Silence female?
<DarkSider> LMFAO
<DarkSider> he is a 17 yo boy :P
<Luthai> ooh ok lol
<Luthai> i just saw couple times someone talking to him with 'she'

And one more:
<Maxi-> on Helper questions:

<Maxi-> Whats the best way to kill Darksider?
<Maxi-> - A Gun?
<Maxi-> - A Knife?
<Maxi-> - Parcel Bomb?

Oh and one more guy threatening me with a bounty on my head that he will come to colect reminded me of some good old times :P

Alliance of the round - Have to say there is none, nobodies stood out from the rest pretty much everyone has had their sucky moments throughout the round!

Best Offensive Alliance - Pest. only ally outta the top 3 who has successfully hit alone.

Best Defensive Alliance - Pest. Held off attacks from 2 allies bigger than them for a long time

Best Leader - Hate to say it but twigley, you got a nice diplomatic win well done.

Worst Leader - Agree with DS on this one Podunk you put your personal opinions infront of what's good for your alliance so no wonder your players went inactive.

Player of the Round - Allied - difficult one but I guess CG

Player of the Round - Solo - was me before I restarted... now all the top solos have cheated in someway or another... land farming, AR farming... you name it.

Best Offensive Player Was silence til he got bored

Best Defensive Player No one

Honourable Mention Player Signer him and his ace RPG

Worst Player Without a shadow of a doubt the group of cheating solos e.g. KB and Deloitte... and Hero from Pest :) he went into a week long mood where he'd try insulting me purely because I rang him when Lukey hit at times he should have been on :P But alas he just sucks

Best Official Helper Silence was my official fluffler so I guess he gets that award

Best IRC Op That would have to be P.

Best Forum Mod We still have these?

Best Moment of the Round Injuries giving me units back

Worst Moment of the Round Taking drugs, attacking solos, KO'in and waking up to find SAS raped my arse :p

Alliance of the Round - If this is judged on 2 week slots all 3 of us on top have deserved it at some point but not for whole round. Either Deso or DW

Best Offensive Alliance - Pest (Dam Rushers)

Best Defensive Alliance - Discworld had to be good to stay where they were all round.

Best Leader - Twigley, Played his Politics well and i saw in real life that he basically killed himself through sleep deprivation

Player of the Round - Allied - Lukey, More influential to Inter than Twigs. A Rock all round. Still gay mind.

Player of the Round - Solo - Tobapopalos - Didn't Cheat so beats the 50 above him.

Best Offensive Player - This hurts to say this. Darksider, This man never ever seems to sleep

Best Defensive Player - Alcibiades - Huge Robo in DW never ever stopped defending.

Worst Player - Ahead - Can do so much better and Pest got nothing from him.
Me - Great at First, Appauling there after.

Alliance of the round : Interlude we did a great job with diplomacy we pick our own wars, just i wasn´t too happy with it cause some times we didn´t do anything and i was like all days moaning to twigley cause i want blood and he said no, don not attack them. (that was to Enigma).

Best Offensive Alliance: Pest they allways rushing and scare our poms so badly all turn to sleep at least once thanks to DS.

Best Defensive Alliance We or Pest the thing was they were great defending and we said hey we got a tick without defense they allways get the guy to send away.

Honourable Mention Alliance: Terrrorist leaders they got the balls to declare war to us and go away, lol i´m sure their leader must be proud. :P

Worst Alliance: NCAA they were so easy sometimes, we rape a few and then i atttacked alone and i stayed and i lost 5 trill at the begining of the round, that was like ****.

Best Leader: Twigley, He´s forcing me to say this right now... lol, kidding he handle all good diplomacy was his strong part but as i said before i prefer kill first ask later.

Worst Leader: Podunk, all i got to say of him is he´s too wierd he´s changing sides all them time he was with us a day and then wth pest that kinda confused me.

Player of the Round - Allied : Cerv he´s funny and ofc he was a flak whore i never like that way of playing but got to admit : You make it good :D.

Player of the Round - Solo: Subbie best in getting eff with someones mum´s. (guess doing what :P)

Best Offensive Player : DS , and i don´t wanna to choose myself but really i think me. I attacked Signer and Hero like 150 times in a week and everytime i did it they got online so.., I diserve abit of a prize myself.

Best Defensive Player: Lukey he allways knews what to do in defense just he was such grumpy sometimes, lol.

Honourable Mention Player: Don´t know

Worst Player: Zeratul, sorry man but stealthing me know i´m stealth was like OMG this is so funny and you get WTF pwned and then you come again and i said heheh i´m awesome you´re dead and then someone defended me and you got scared.

Best Official Helper: Never ask for help

Best IRC Op: Don´t spend a min in #bush this round but Darryl is great.

Best Forum Mod: Same this is my first post, and maybe my last one.

Best Moment of the Round: We stealing pest 46k retaling and killing Zeratul when he got 50% of his troops back i got 70% so was very funny.

Worst Moment of the Round: when i woke up and i saw the huge battle of enigma and pest against us of 66 trill of damage kinda and i said OMFG why the hell was i sleeping.

Forgot to say was very happy cause i Played with AwE and Chinoo, at last.

Player of the Round - Solo - was me before I restarted... now all the top solos have cheated in someway or another... land farming, AR farming... you name it.

Not all of us ;)

Silence

21-02-2008, 07:56 PM

Alliance of the round - None impressed me. I agree with Darksider, each had their bad points but also had their good points.

Best Offensive Alliance - *shrugs* None of the offenses were brilliant w/o the assisstance of a 2nd alliance.

Best Defensive Alliance - Inter always bothered to defend my rushes. This shows enthusiasm in the defensive department

Best Leader - Twigley. I assume he got what he set out to do, achieved his goals therefore best leader. I'd like to also mention IoF too, perhaps not the best on this round be he had a different leading style, not quite as drastic but I think it worked ok

Worst Leader - Who ever the leader is of Enigma. Damn that dude sucked so much. Didnt have the balls to turn against interlude until it was too late so Lordie had to do it for him. Crap leader. Personal gripes against certain players because LET rushes were sent against his alliance

Player of the Round - Allied - Lordie. He was the heart and soul of enigma. That alliance only ever seemed to function whenever he was online.
Also Lukey. That dude is so dedicated. I would always see his ID defending. Two very good players of that round

Two players inside my alliance also need a mention imho. Darksider and Cityguy. Cityguy because he was manage to rush rangers, that made me laugh :D And Darksider made many enemy PoM hit sleepmode, and I dont blame them, he did so well.

::Edit:: Forgot to add Pest's awesome RPG Signer! Good attacks and deditcated defender! :D How could I forget you!

Best Offensive Player - Darksider. Reasons above

Best Defensive Player - Lukey. Reasons above.

Worst Player - Enigma leader. And Monkey. Both sucked

Best Moment of the Round - Although apperently I have been innactive (thanks Darksider =P ) I enjoyed the whole thing. The continous changing of diplomatic position and also the changing of the value lead. I enjoyed rushing and being bashed! Thankyou especially to my wonderful leader IoF :D

Worst Moment of the Round - Letting Monkey into the alliance

Best forum mod
bobbins locking of threads was always timely. but im afraid its going to darryl just because he was so helpful and easy to get along with when we were talking about "best ratio" thread layout

worst moment of the round deciding to not attack anymore because I was to "busy"
now rank 60ish bunker the realisation i cant suicide on any one and my round is kinda over already. and i wont make portal. gosh darn it

best moment of the round managing to send an attack which i thought was certain death forgetting to recall and landing. also killing insane amounts of flack

im afraid im not really in an allie and feel i missed out on quite alot. so dont know who was who, and who i thought was best/worst. I just want to join an allie that wont mind how active i am and i can suicide defence on. but alass i cant seem to find one :( *open to offers*

Subdivisions

21-02-2008, 10:37 PM

Alliance of the round - Interlude, for playing their cards right

Best Offensive Alliance - Pest

Best Defensive Alliance - Khaos for constantly defending against the 3 powerhouses

Honourable Mention Alliance - DW for being public all round

Worst Alliance - Desolation, the only alliance I could consistently get land off of later in the round :P

Best Leader - Twigley, for his politics

Worst Leader - no idea

Player of the Round - Allied - DarkSider, anybody who causes that much havoc gets my vote (even though I remember you being at my size with 6k land and you piggied one of my attacks, grrr)

Player of the Round - Solo - CLem for restarting as puppets and passing me like I was riding a bicycle in the slow lane :shock:

Best Offensive Player - DarkSider

Best Defensive Player - hard to say since I wasn't in an alliance...I'll go with CLem since he saved me a couple times :P

Honourable Mention Player -

1) f0xx - for starting late and still looking sexy as ever
2) Lukey - for keeping Lude together
3) Twigs - same reason as Lukey
4) Gohan - for being active/sexy and joining the 'good' guys :P
5) Maxi - for 'keeping it real' in DW :D

Worst Player - the big shield player in Pest, because he made stupid, cocky remarks to me when I attacked him (so glad I killed his combines, muahahaha)

Best Official Helper - no idea

Best IRC Op - no idea

Best Forum Mod - no idea

Best Moment of the Round - too many to name just one :D

21-02-2008, 11:30 PM

Alliance of the round: I am going to say us (Interlude) even though I shouldnt, and also Khaos. They have been in the same position pretty much all round copping incs left right and center 24/7 from Us, Pest and Enigma I believe and they have always defended to their best, and never ONCE did they complain to me about being hit. Nice job antisback =)

Best Offensive Alliance: Pest.

Best Defensive: Khaos

Most Honourable: Enigma, didn't whinge, well not to me.

Worst alliance: Average Joes for sure.

Best Leader: Twig/Lukey as he did actually lead parts of this round.

Worst Leader: AJ's leader.

Best allied player: I'm going to give this to Lukey. Simply for the fact he was always there when ever you needed, he knows his stuff well and demonstrated it to me alot this round, since I hadn't played with him before. When ever he was called up in the middle of the night he was never cranky, always happy. <3 Also ME! I didn't lose an acre all round

Best Solo: Subbie!

Best Offensive: I'll have to say DS, although I dont agree with his play styles much he did piss alot of people off, which seems to make him happy.

Best Defensive Player: Twigley, for his actual defence and the way he organised it.

Honorable player mentions: Lukey, some of the guys in Enigma (they didn't complain about not winning and whinge that we attacked with others, when they would have done the same). And all the guys in Interlude, has been an awesome round.

Worst Player Fredd, or he is also known as Beaz. He is by far THE worst player I have ever come across. How he stayed in our alliance for so long I do not know. He complained everyday that we didnt help him get land, so consequently he sat on like 12k land for 2 weeks, as he was such a noob he couldnt steal for himself! The most rudest, wierdest, most total waste of space I have ever come across in Bushtarion land!

Best Forums Mod: Maxi, he is laid back and doesn't ejaculate from hitting delete.

Best moment of the round: Wow... All the take downs of Pest and Enigma and the same but when we were defending from both. Some really cool BR's came out of those fights. Oh and when fredd left our alliance, I was the happiest man on the planet.

Worst moment: Um. Having our id's GMT's and nicks out at round start from some filthy stinky ratty #$%^^$#$ :P

TehPantz

22-02-2008, 12:12 AM

Best Alliance: Sukomaballs, for the best name and gameplay

Best Leader: PODUNK. i know this for a fact because I have seen in real life how he handled the game.

Defensive player: All the top Poms in the game (biggest and meanest was Podunk).

Honorable Mention Alliance: Seed, for giving me the only reason to read GP.

Best Solo: my Pnap who don't really know the name of

Worst Player of the Round: B 19 of the Bots. That bot really sucked......bad. really bad (I bet it was squiffy).

Best IRC op: ASMO

Podunk

22-02-2008, 03:25 AM

Alliance of the round - None, all were not spectacular in the least. Fighting was done with politics, and it was lame.
The remainder of active Enigma members are great and I thank them for their continued effort.

Best Offensive Alliance - Pest because of DS

Best Defensive Alliance - Khaos

Honourable Mention Alliance - Lude because of the many poms :P, that and they were pretty contactable.

Worst Alliance - Criminals? NCAA?

Best Leader - Eh none were spectacular.

Worst Leader - Smed?

Player of the Round - Allied - Lordie, was there when I needed someone to help me out :)

Player of the Round - Solo - I donno I saw hobo high ranked all round and didn't land farm.

Best Offensive Player - DS or Lordie

Best Defensive Player - Anyone who didn't give up.

Honourable Mention Player - TehPantz, I'm quite happy with how he's learned to play the game in such a short time.

Worst Player - Rather the dick move award... Goes to Gohan. Leaves to join the winning alliance. Enough said.

Best Official Helper - Cal!

Best IRC Op - All of them!

Best Forum Mod - Any that do their job.

Best Moment of the Round - First months of the round when my members were active and willing, and in fact I would say Enigma were the best alliance during these times.

Worst Moment of the Round - Last month of the round, 4-5 players practically disappear, and certain members within the alliance give up causing a chain reaction. Honest to god I tried my hardest, but given the circumstances (and available replacements for inactives were non-existent) the problem couldn't be remedied in time for round end.

22-02-2008, 04:14 AM

Alliance of the round: My vote go's to Kahos simply for the position they have stayed at all round. well done guy's

Best Offensive Alliance: Pest, again purley for the rushes. damn you DS :mad:

Best Defensive Alliance: Again with Kahos, allways seemed to have just enough online and Interlude for staying on that one big defence and providing the biggest br I've seen for awhile now.

Worst Alliance: NCAA

Best Leader: Twigs/Lukey well done guys it's been a pleasure

Worst Leader: Podunk, For swinging in the breeze and leaving us guessing where he's going to stop this time

Player of the Round - Allied: Lukey I'm not sure that it's just luck or you actually know what your doing but either way keep it up :D

Player of the Round - Solo: Subbie! man you crack me up

Best Offensive Player: DS,

Best Defensive Player: Twigs

Honourable Mention Player: jiggy pitty you had to delete early

Worst Player: Fredd, god damn man grow a set ffs

Best Moment of the Round: I have a heap but the one that I will never forget is a statement made in irc by one of our members, who shall remain nameless, about tasting some of their own bodily fluid!
I haven't laughed so hard in ages :shock:

Worst Moment of the Round: None.

I would just like to thank all the members of Interlude for a top round. Well played and thanks heaps for the laughs.

Best Offensive Alliance: Pest

Best Defensive Allie: Interlude

Worst Alliance: Enigma ( Not a bad allie but kept switching sides constantly, offered so much potential but showed so little, members didnt know what was going on.etc very inactive, no leadership, arrogant almost)

Alliance of the Round: Interlude (well done Twigles and Lukey)

Best leader: cant really comment but Twigley for leading Inter to Victory

Player of The Round: Lukey (He was always there defending everyone 24/7), Twigley also impressed me as ive never seen him rlly play a whole round before, Gohan for land whore

Best Solo: None really most cheated, Hobo proberbly takes it, Cheese played well at the start until he deleted

Most Agressive Player: Ds and Lordie made the biggest impact

Biggest Disappointment(s):

Enigma could have played better after they got resisted

Players:

Cid, He played very well at the start and really was owning, so many kills with your robos but then suddenly activity just dropped and he disappeared

Cheese, again not really disappointing but why delete when Rank 1 with a huge lead? bored maybe

Best Moment of the Round: Quite enjoyed attacking Garret, i think my whole experience as a solo Vamp player was fantastic until my demise, Enjoyed playing alongside Interlude as Solo alot

Worst Moment: None really ive enjoyed the round but i think when i realised i couldnt change how things were in Enigma :(

Thankyou all for a great Round, Thankyou to my allie Enigma for mostly believeing in me being able to catch up once i restarted, had a few good chats with many of you and met a few new people too. Also a massive thankyou to Twigley and Interlude, whom i played alongside as Solo for a few weeks of the round

Best Moment of the Round: Quite enjoyed attacking Garret, i think my whole experience as a solo Vamp player was fantastic until my demise, Enjoyed playing alongside Interlude as Solo alot

Likewise, I enjoyed showing you the power of the middle tick :D - was the only time in the round in which I did equal to greater damage to a vamp player.

Alliance of the Round: Rank 1 is Interlude, therefore....

Best Offensive Alliance: Well the day I see any of the top 3 hitting 1 vs 1 i'll consider them for this. Bashing is *not*, i repeat, NOT, a skill.

Best Defensive Alliance: Khaos, didn't really spend much time attacking so >.<

Honourable Mention Alliance: Discworld for being much worse than i thought.

Worst Alliance: A tie between DW and Sukomoballs

Best Leader: N/A

Worst Leader: Inactive gits who let their players get away with ****.

Player of the Round - Allied: SadYear, VanHoudt, Nameless: anyone of a handful of core DW members this round who stayed up for hours and hours and hours defending against impossible inc.

Player of the Round - Solo: tobapopalos cuz he's such a sexily inactive beast.

Best offensive player: momsmack, i can't stand the guy but he sure can steal the **** out of land. Too well for his own good but... damn.

Best Defensive player: same as Allied Players of the Round ^^

Honourable Mention Player: SadYear! Where have you been all my rounds of bushtarion????

Worst Player: Gadfly and Crumpet: you both deserted us when we needed you most because you can't take a goddamn joke. Go play in traffic.
Worst Player Part 2: Those three players who mass jeeps/bikers and went around raping POMs. ****ing unbelievable guys, you're the worst that bushtarion has to offer. It's people like you who make homicidal maniacs like me famous.

Best Official Helper: Dematto (if he was the one who wrote that now famous helper reply)

Best IRC Op: Darryl, ofc. The man is reasonable, funny and just. What more can I want?

Best Forum Mod: Anyone who does their job with a minimum of fuss, bother and kerfuffle. Charlie_B and Darryl spring to mind instantly ofc.

Best Moment of the Round: Raping my attackers and the incomings on my alliance 24/7. Being inactive and still wtfpwning the rest of my ally members, and simply just being robo butchering people left right and centre.

Worst moment of the Round: Joining Discworld, roundstart, when i realized i'd fully sold my soul and was in for a gangbang of a round.

Alliance of the round:
DiscWorld. Public from start, top 10 all round. Well done!

Best Offensive Alliance:
Interlude. The only of the three to successfully fend off (and benefit from) a resistence..... They got massed, lost 15k, attacked back and gained 45k.....

Best Defensive Alliance:
KHaos. Well done, you took a lot of stick from the three big guns!

Honourable Mention Alliance:
MindTheGap. Not a single player with more than 3 hours activity per day and 16 of 18 members are from europe (Mostly UK) Well done for not dieing too badly!

Worst Alliance:
Spam

Best Leader:
Twigley. Politics and Tactics. Worked well. Always put your members needs before yours. Well Done.

Worst Leader:
LeftOvers leader. Treedude was so much better -.-

Player of the Round - Allied:
Lukey. I don't see how it could go to anyone else. Top 10 eff, top 3 value. Great defender, great attacker, great fun too.

Player of the Round - Solo:
Garrett, played very well this round (again). Hasn't cheated, impressed me.

Edit: Also harriergirl did well, they both held together the solo group brilliantly and worked hard!

Well done to both of you!

Best Offensive Player:
Offensive for damage: DarkSider, reasons stated by everyone else.
Offensive for land: Cervantes. Took him hardly any time to catch the rest of Inter once he joined.

Best Defensive Player:
Younge. Whenever he was online and there was incs, he was defending. He kind of lacked on the offensive though....

Honourable Mention Player:
Lordie. Enigma's Rock. Well done Sir!

Worst Player:
Martin, For such a well respected member of the community to resort to cheating again just isn't acceptable. I doubt you'll be caught for it because you did it whilst Azzer was on holiday but you don't deserve top 10.

Alliance of the round
Thought Lude did well, so did Pest.

Best Offensive Alliance
Gonna say Pestiferous

Best Defensive Alliance
KHaos/DW did very well this round

Honourable Mention Alliance
KHaos, good activity and defence. Had some very good players join them this round.

Worst Alliance
1. Enigma - Lost the round by Podunk holding a personal grudge, against Cheese and Silence. Meh...Lost the round. Never wanted to do resistance hits.
2. Interlude - Dont take this as sour grapes, as you also got my best alliance of the round. But i just think it must have been a very boring round, political win. Meh...I loved the wars this round, you guys played it safe, but in all fairness you won GV. So well done. So you get my best/Worst alliance Lude.

Best Leader
No one really impressed me hugely. All top 3 leaders (of course including myself) sucked in some way.

Worst Leader
Recon - Sorry dude, made some silly moves etc.
Podunk - Again sorry mate, you are a game mate, but my god did you make some bad mistakes.

Player of the Round - Allied
Signer - Awesome defence, great activity. (Pest)
Lordie - Kept Enigma alive alone
Lukey - Did well buddy ;)

But without a doubt DarkSider pwned with Cityguy.

Player of the Round - Solo
Your all cheats tbh, so the highest ranking solo, who didnt cheat is my favourite :D

Best Offensive Player
Darksider, such a clever player. After 22 rounds of playing myself, this guy still taught me alot.

Best Defensive Player
Signer/Lukey/Lordie - Each kept their alliance alive.

Honourable Mention Player
Tractor, also kept Enigma afloat. Good rusher!

Worst Players
1. Gohan - Clarified as a HUGE SQ.
2. Monk3h/Cid/Seetal - Ship jumping monkeys, all gone inactive.
3. Astral - 3 week sleep in top 10. :o

Best Official Helper
Hewo FTW!

Best IRC Op
Meneldil - Just because i love him

Best Forum Mod
Charlie_b - i love this bloke to :D

Best Moment of the Round
Waking up every morning, to see DS' BRs where he has smashed all POMs.

Worst Moment of the Round
Being retaled by Lude and losing 46k land. That moment was the end of the round.

Twigley/Lukey/Podunk - Thanks for a good fight this round and making this round fun. Even with the HUGE stalemate.

Interlude, congratulations on the GV win :D

IoF, I agree with a lot of what you said, but this point is absolutely bull. I know Gohan for many rounds now, and I am pretty sure that many people will support me when I say Gohan is everything BUT a scorequeen. He had his (very valid) reasons for joining us, but you apparently dont know them. Gohan is one of the best land stealers around, very active and a very loyal and funny guy. You shouldnt blame someone being a scorequeen if you dont know what was going on.

Not wanting to Spam this or start an arguement, but if you or Gohan wanna query me on this, just PM me.

"Best IRC Op: Darryl, ofc. The man is reasonable, funny and just. What more can I want? "

Agreed, but the sexehness of Markb needs a mention to.

btw - wtf is this crap about "best IRC op of the round" ?? They're the same EVERY round - why is this one special? (no offence to you ops - you are appreciated really :P )

anywho...

A big thanks to Alcibiades for his crazy rant about how everyone sucked this round. I didn;t play for the whole of it as I got fed up by everyone's lazy attitude to attacking brought by Azzer's decision to remove anything to persuade people not to bash the living **** out of smaller players - what a way to keep newcomers!! :D

I'd also like to give a lot of gratitude to the members of MindTheGap who made my brief playing time this round as enjoyable as possible considering how bad the game seemed to be.

Gohan does the same thing every round masses flak suicides for a little bit of land and has 1 aim to get as much land as possible... countless numbers of times I've looked and there he is in an ally loads of land no troops.

Twigley

22-02-2008, 09:09 PM

Gohan is a very useful member of my alliance.
This coming from me, is the end of the arguement about him being a scorequeen.

I also love the whole "Omg Gohan is a scorequeen" act.
I seem to recall 3 players joining Enigma with the same motive, correct me if im wrong.
I aint trying to stir an arguement, but this is the EXACT same situation.
Gohan didnt agree / get on in Enigma because of a decision from Podunk/Lordie. The 3 jumper didnt get on with Pest / Iofs decisions iirc.

*Shrug*

On topic - Ty for my awards :o Been a fun round but it isnt over yet. ;)

1. Gohan - Clarified as a HUGE SQ.

Gohan is one of the best land stealers around,

Somewhat of a overstatement. Everytime I saw him attack alone he lost millions of units for small grabs. Not in my opinion "a good stealer" quite possibally the opposite as he cant take acres without killing all his staff off. I missed Gohan out of "worst players of the round" so he should be in mine for being unable to attack properly =)

Worst solo(s):
The group of solos with people like KB and Delloitte (not actually sure what their names are) for constantly bashing and sometimes doing mutual AR attacks on each other. Thanks for making us solos look bad, much appreciated.

DarkSider

22-02-2008, 10:15 PM

Just one post if i may, about those who left their alliance to go to a better one.
I can understand having arguments and internal conflicts with some members and deciding to leave your ally. What i think it's the lowest form of slap in the face is to rely on your alliance to save your ass all round long, they protect your sorry ass, your acres, your troops just so you decide at one time .. Hey, thanks for getting me fat and strong, i'll run to the enemy and use all the goods you sacrificed so much to save against you.
I would understand if any of those 4 was unhappy with his alliance and go solo/move to an alliance outside top 3/ delete or if you leave the alliance early in the round just stay out of the current wars and when it starts to cool down you can try to go in any alliance you want. But in the middle of the war to run to the enemy it's the weakest and lowest way to spit in the face of the members who cared about you.

Sorry if it's too harsh, i have nothing personal against those, i wasn't even in the ally when the trio left to Enigma it's just that since ever i was highly disgusted by this kind of ship jumping.

Melnibone

22-02-2008, 10:47 PM

I almost agree but tbh i've been in an alliance before where it wasnt fun and i left to join a rival because at the end of the day its a game and if a game isnt fun why spend the next 5-65 days playing it???? sorry just my two cents but i like Gohan and have no problem with him leaving the ally for the reasons he did in fact i respect him for it and im in exactly in the same position with Seetal who is a great guy a fantastic player and im lucky to have got to play a round with him

In short while we play hard and put so much of ourselves in time and emotion to the game we should just all grow up and let people enjoy playing a game and have a little fun ourselves :)

Meh...I loved the wars this round, you guys played it safe, but in all fairness you won GV. So well done. So you get my best/Worst alliance Lude.

The thing I don't get its... When you play Bushtarion, and your contending for the win, don't you do what ever you possibly can to get that win? (without breaking the rules). I mean yes we did use politics alot and we also fought. We did everything we could to try and win and we did. I bet you also did IOF but it didn't turn out that way. You can't tell me you deliberatly didn't use politics because diplomatic wins are boring.

Reub

22-02-2008, 10:53 PM

Okay, I wasnt here for the most of the round so I am not going to comment on most of the awards, but what I see is that some people have hard feelings about fredd.

I dont know what exactly makes you say such things about him, but since my real start this round I've been talking and playing with him, he is a good and relyable player, very dedicated aswell. If the definition of a good player for you guys is someone who is able to hoard acres like there is no tomorrow, then I feel really sorry for you. I also feel sorry for him having to play with you.

Peace.

Btw f0xx, thanks for the support, seems that you know him as well as i am, and the other argies, that know him better tahn me, lol.

I played with fredd too (i put him in the ally at first place). All the people that are talking sh** about fredd are on my ally. lol, The only thing i have to say is that he´s a good guy and better player, allways defend and never refuses get everybody on if needed. Somehow some of my alliy mates ended up hating him cause he was asking for help to get land, he get it at the end but it was too late he got tired and left, lol.

Anyhow he´s an awesome player and you´ll be happy to have him in your team.

Don´t wanna make some issue about it i just wanna put this clear.

Foxx, and Quitus if I showed you some of the mails he sent me and irc logs of the abuse he used to throw at me and other Lude members each day for prettty much no reason. Foxx, you tend to put words in peoples mouths as I never said we only like land whores. I like players who can attack by themselves and with others. Not rely on others to let him send geos with all their attacks, when we all need land not just him. Yeah he was great for sending txt msgs and pranking people, but IMO worst player I have ever come across. And most immature person for his age. Some of the things he said....

DarkSider

22-02-2008, 11:08 PM

I bet you also did IOF but it didn't turn out that way. You can't tell me you deliberatly didn't use politics because diplomatic wins are boring.

Enigma offered to be on our side when they first died to Inter + Pestif and we kept attacking them 1:1. IOF told me Podunk gave him a warning to stop all attacks on them if we want to count on their support to attack Inter with them. At that time Inter was playing the good guys, making cash sitting on acres and sweet talking with everybody. So IOF told me about the warning and we decided it would be too booring if we play it safe too and nobody would have the balls to do first move as it was likely the most passive alliance to be asked by the one loosing the 1:1 to help them get revenge in return of giving them the valuation win. It wasn't imo poor political play just an orc heart hungry for blood :P I have to admit tho i was hoping twigley to jump on Enigma aswell and then fight it out 1:1 with us. That's why i didn't gave twig the award for best leader, he would certanly deserve it most from the top 3 but the way he achieved what he wanted was a bit too soft for my taste :P

First, if he had sent the mails you are speaking of then he must have had a damn good reason. Second, I have seen people worship players like Gohan and Cityguy who are (were?) nothing but landwhores and on the other side you have players like fredd who have problems with stealing land but will always be there for you and your ally and will watch over your precious acres every night so you can sleep in peace...

Also, remember that he left his top 3 ally and joined another that is much lower ranked, unlike some other people who tend to change sides so easily...

And one last thing... for me planning an attack or finding a target for someone in exchange for his loyalty is a price that is too low. Was it so high for you?

pinpower

23-02-2008, 12:49 AM

without wanting to extend the *****ing much further...but i feel i should comment on fredd

I played with him last round in CP, and he is a very good player. Alot of people fell out with him as (similar to what others have said) he constantly asked for help attacking, which is fine ofc...BUT...when he would see people landing having not told him to follow, or if someone didnt help him get land he went completely crazy and started shouting and swearing about how much money he had spent on BCs for the alliance etc etc....
Hmm, while that sounds like i am saying fredd is a bad player i am simply describing that to you before i say...that he is a very good player, and a nice guy to play with...(from what i gather) he has a pretty full on work life...and so while he is active...can sometimes not have time to search for targets etc..

Anyway, re-reading through my post it seems like im *****ing about him, where as im trying to defend him...he is a nice guy..just gets frustrated i think...

(I will post my awards and shiz when i can actually be bothered)

Worst Players
1. Gohan - Clarified as a HUGE SQ.
2. Monk3h/Cid/Seetal - Ship jumping monkeys, all gone inactive.
3. Astral - 3 week sleep in top 10.

ppl like u always tend to jump to conclusions without actually looking at the facts. how about u get the real scoop first before making accusations.

If u want to find out how about u mail me or pm me and find out what really happened before posting.

Second Monk3h/Cid/Seetal did the same thing for their own reasons. i guess they realized early in the round that they didnt want to be with u. and that u tried recruitting just about everyone in the game!
i still got a couple mails saved from u. if u want i can post them here how u were sucking up :lol: and trying to recruit me.

Third Astral slept for his own reasons. if a person that needs to take time off to study for school dont u think he is allowed? what are u saying ppl shouldnt have a life just because they are in top 10 they have to keep on playing. This game is nothing of importance. after the day is over its still a game.

Just a few thoughts:

1) it would be nice to see awards/memories and good times from members from other alliances who has been taking part in bushtarion, i dont know such as, Desolation, Khaos, DW,, NCAA, AverageJOE, etc.. I mean, they've been playing the game too, and it would just be awesome to see how they have enjoyed the game rather than having the awards focusing on the big 3. Sure... the most impressive most dangerous/poor sap players should be mentioned, but i thought we have statistic for that don't we, what about awards for those that have really impressed you while you play, or even have made a fool out of themselves, or whatever comes into mind. tis a community after all, just not sure if these guys feel unimportant when posting in this thread after seeing the first two pages "predominantly" concentrated on the biggest and bestest, and on the "big 3".

2) The trend about these awards seem to be: the impressions about alliances/players tend to be decided by the last few weeks of the round, which is biased upon what ppl do or try to do to impress on the last couple of weeks. It's quite biased in my opinion, but who can blame ppl for not remembering what happened earlier in the round right? say... if there's some guy who do something really stupid in the next two days, he'll be mentioned, for sure... Also there are other players who took part in the game for the first half, but had to leave so they are not around for this "award ceremony", or around enough for the last few weeks to make an impact on these awards. but because of that... ppl forget how impresive/good they played in the first half.

3) anyone counts how many awards they get these days? genuine serious question without any hidden implication or mocking.

4) Oh! I also llike the fact how so many posters in this thread has like 1 or 2 posts! Thought that was awesome! not sure why they only have 1 or 2 posts though. I also have like 3 =D

just my 2 cents :D

Alliance of the round - Interlude, maybe i didn't like your tactics of sending 3mil geo's each to a resistance attack of 500k geo's but you played a very tactical round and were not afraid to employ "Brutus" tactics to win.

Best Offensive Alliance - Pest, we didn't have *too* much problem defending inter or enigma but when pest joined in too, we had some trouble

Best Defensive Alliance - I can't really think of any other than us, and i don't like to blow my own trumpet, pretty much every ally outside top 4 was easy to rush and land on

Honourable Mention Alliance - MindTheGap

Worst Alliance - avalanche/Average Joes, for whining about my uber unorganised mass attacks on gpols constantly :P

Best Leader - IoF

Worst Leader - Enrico (Avalanche)/leader of AJ's sorry but theres one thing i can't stand and thats whining about inc

Player of the Round - Allied - Masa for never complaining and getting straight to it when i said, "I need these people on to defend this one"

Player of the Round - Solo - Poss Martin, But shame on the top ally's for not exploiting a Major weakness with his route, Hell i would've quite happily landed on him if i'd bothered to get a high enough score

Best Offensive Player - L o r d Of Masturbation ( dunno who it was) did 25bil score damage to me this round :P

Mention to reub too i suppose, stole a good 3k land off my and did a good 10bil damage (dammm tl's suck this round)

Player of the Round - Solo - Tobapopalos - Didn't Cheat so beats the 50 above him.

BOOYEAH! Take that, biatches!

I knew 2 hours a day activity would pay off eventually :P

you two spooning for 4 hours a day doesn't count!

Just a few thoughts:

3) anyone counts how many awards they get these days? genuine serious question without any hidden implication or mocking.

just my 2 cents :D

heck i skim most of this thread unless i see someone who usually posts interesting stuff or i see something which is to do with me or a friend. but tbh thats only because im sad and most of this thread is just flaming :P

Alliance of the round - Interlude played a good round no question.

Best Offensive Alliance - Pestiferous definitely had some of the best attackers and were always up for an attack.

Best Defensive Alliance - Khaos as mentioned many times before, not an outstanding alliance for attacking but they knew how to defend and ward off attackers.

Worst Alliance/Leader - Enigma - Kept together by a couple of players. Will Enigma help us, won't they, dragged on way too long and Podunk decided way too late, and even then were very unwilling to help.

Best Leader - I enjoyed playing with IoF but sometimes needs prompting on how to deal with some members. Although Lukey played a very good political game I don't think I'd have enjoyed playing in Interlude as much.

Player of the Round - Allied - the_master was always a willing, contactable defender and cg is always a good member to have if you need to see some awesome battle reports. I think Lordeh and Tractor have proved also how invaluable they can be in an alliance.

Player of the Round - Solo musmorok of dunno, another bg but was incredibly active never got a hit on him :(

Best Offensive Player - DS and his crazy activity and persistence.

Best Defensive Player - Defenders of Home in Khaos was very active and a good defender, and being the only PoM in the alliance for a while means IoF deserves a mention for constantly being pranked.

Best Moment of the Round - Harassing numerous solo robo/striker/f117 players.

Worst Moment of the Round - Suiciding on a big SA inc on DS

Alliance of the round - Didn't keep up too much with the top 3, but I think Interlude did great :D

Best Offensive Alliance - Like Antis said, Pest always gave us trouble when they sent :P

Best Defensive Alliance - Outside the top 3? What Ant said :P Even though I dislike saying it

Honourable Mention Alliance - Discworld! You guys stuck together for the whole round even though you took a mighty beating, you guys deserve a better finish than you have :P (in value that is)

Worst Alliance - Avalanche, Average joes/Anyone who whined when we hit them :P

Best Leader - I suppose IoF was the best, but I think Azreal (KHaoS leader) did us proud this round by doing what he did :D I'm still not exactly sure what it was, but it worked.

Worst Leader - Avalanches, Average joes leaders - Complained when we hit them. However avalanche have stopped so Kudos for that!

Player of the Round - Allied - Masa, no competition about it. He was always there when we needed him - hell we must have woken him up three times in one night once, did he complain? Not even once :D Brilliant defender, understood that we needed him and never complained!

So, thanks Masa ^^

Player of the Round - Solo - I didn't keep up with any of the solos this round.

Best Offensive Player - Reub I'd say, he was the only person to attack us who we actually gave thought to defending :P

Best Defensive Player - Masa, Antisback and Invader.

Masa for just being active and always there, Ant and Invader for always organising excellent defence.

Honourable Mention Player - Rich! (Azreal) for having continued KHaoS this round and having convined everyone to join us :P

Worst Player - Uhh, no one stands out in my mind, however I'll just give it to anyone who whined when I attacked them :D

Best Moment of the Round - Can't pinpoint it to a single moment, but it was definately whenever Invader found out I'd zeroed myself again :P

Worst Moment of the Round - Oh, that time when Masa called me and I thought it was about quarter to 2, so I was like 'Woot! I slept past midday!' Got online and turned out I'd misread my alarm clock and it was actually quarter to 12 :D

Least impressive players: I'll only post those that i had higher expectations and their performance was weak during the round.
Drakonius - He put alot of activity and skill into a solo pom account just to refresh and evacuate from biker rushes. Didn't saw him doing any attacks in 1month+. Such a waste :p

I have to agree DS. Got really busy with work about 1/2 way through the round. I didn't even bother with the PU this round. This is my lowest activity round (3.8 hours) since I started with only 59 attacks and I'm sure I got all those in the first couple of weeks lol

Worst Leader - Avalanches, Average joes leaders - Complained when we hit them. However avalanche have stopped so Kudos for that!

Very selective memories alot of people in this thread have :| I suggest re-reading the gripe thread.

Well I guess Interlude are the best alliance for winning it, but I think Khaos have done a great job staying very consistantly rank 4. They must have taken alot of punishment from the top 3, but haven't wavered once.

Player of the round, I have no idea. But Santa (don't think he uses forums) deserves a mention for being a heroic defender.

Worst player: all the solos abusing the system.

Well it's been a fun and laid back kinda round.

Had a gathering of solos, can't believe the # of people and talent that at least started out as solos... my solo channel at many points especially early on were the makings of a great alliance. Too bad most of us cba to play properly this round.

Sorry I wasn't active in the channel as often as I liked but then again, I made it for a home for those who needed one or those who just wanted to hang out. Ended up being a refuge for a few alli members that were in the middle of reshuffling.

We were active in wars. Lots of solos had ally alligiance, but we were spread out and really just hit wherever the acres were.

Thanks to Don, Pete and Bully for being my pnaps (Don left for Enigma after the first month). Vannila thanks for being my attack buddy. Thanks to Toby, Martin, Cheese and Nightmare for holding down the fort as OP's.

Best Solo: There are quite a number of sizeable solos that did NOT cheat. You guys are tops. CLem will get special mention for his restart and incredible climb with a route that he plays very very well.

Average Joes: Thanks for all the poms until you disbanded!

Desolation: Thanks to you too!

Thanks to all the solos that kept me entertained. At peak times during active wars we had at one point 30-40 solos in the channel and ready for movement.

Although I lost alot of good solos to Allies, there were no commitments. I appreciate everyone who came in and hung out for however long making my last round enjoyable.

Rock on peeps.

Alliance of the round: Seed, they did a lot of crazy stuff; had themselves destroyed and made a great comeback; they make this game fun

Best Offensive Alliance: Pest; they had the best attacks on us, and they still appear on our incs screen, even with only a few days left in the game

Best Defensive Alliance: (as I will not name ourselves) --> Mind The Gap; I haven't landed once on them, although I really tried.

Honourable Mention Alliance: Dutch_Angels; always around and always there for better and for worse. I think they have their first real war now and they seem to turn that one aroundin their favour too.

Worst Alliance: Criminals; there's always one of these alliances around; full of shipjumpers and bad egos. They changed their player base each day. (made me think the Retardophobia alliance I was in last round; a lot of good players but still a bad alliance)

Best Leader: Azlev(KHaoS); you don't have to be the best player to be the best leader. he knows how to keep it together, create loyalty; asks opinions; explains decision and keeps up the good spirit.

Player of the Round - Arild; I don't know how he does it; I hardly seen him all round, but he still clims the ranks like no other; great to discover you were back at bush this round old friend

Player of the Round - Screams of Silence. No explanation needed

Best Offensive Player - Humper; The way this guy attacks and collects acres in the first stages of the game is incredible

Best Defensive Player - Masa; always there

Worst defensive player - Humper; Humper playing POMS is like Federer playing table tennis; it just doesn't fit

Worst Player - Some Leftovers guy that kept complaining I was hitting him, but still kept climbing back to my attack range :)

Best Moment of the Round: First few days of the round; I seemed to have the math's back in order again and was near top 10 for a few days.

Worst Moment of the Round: The attack I forgot to recall

Alliance of the round: Well, as always the alliance on top at the end did better than all the others to get there, be it by wars or politics or a combination of both. So it is very easy to say that Interlude is the alliance of the round. We did quite well in the wars and Twigley played an excellent part in the politics, which always was a and always will be a (if not the most) important part on the road to victory. However, my vote in this category goes to pestiferous, because they kept fighting even after losing three big players to enigma and being brought down, because they managed to steal land faster than no other alliance, because they are the most effective alliance around, because they are active/reachable like hell, and because they never stop bugging us with their nasty little stealth attacks. So Kudos to Pestif!

Best Offensive Alliance: There is no clear winner for me in this category. True, Pestif are the best rushers, but rushing is not everything. Organizing attacks plays another big part in being the best offensive ally. And I can only speak for my alliance, but Lukey did a very good job in organizing, not only for us, but also in the wars to bring another alliance down. The combined IRC room was always waiting for Lukey, wich tells enough about his quality. So the best offensive alliances in my opinion were Pestiferous and Interlude.

Best Defensive Alliance: We did quite well in defense, blocked most of it and hurt the attackers a couple of times, so I give the vote to us: Interlude. Another reason why we are the best in defense is the fact, that we were also able to pull an excellent and very succesfull counter attack as defensive strategy when we were under high presure.

Worst Alliance: No idea, there are about 20 alliances around, but I only was involved with the top three, so it is impossible for me to say which one is the worst of the round. Everybody keeps saying Enigma were, but they are top ranked, so they must have done something right. But if I had to choose from the top three, then my vote would go to enigma, because they never really knew what they wanted and they were less active and less reliable.

Best Leader: At least that is easy. Best leader was Twigley. He was active like hell, always contactable and he sacrificed a lot of sleep all round long (damn, i wish i was still a student :P). He was a good defense organizer, he was pulling the strings in the back and played the politics just right. And he always knew what he was doing, so yes, Twigley is the logical choice here :)

Player of the Round - Allied: Lukey. He was not only active like a maniac, he was also putting a lot of effort in to be succesfull this round (sometimes so much that it was almost annoying, no offence buddy :P). He kept pushing and trying hard all round long. And as I said he was playing a big role in the wars when organizing attacks. Kudos Lukey, nice job and keep it up!

Player of the Round - Solo: I will give this one to hobo. He was flakked so many many times, and still kept going, I think I would be so frustrated that I had deleted way early in the round.

Best Offensive Player: Well, there are many ways to play offensive. One way is to rush people with lets to get kills and effectiveness. This is not my style to play but it is Darksider's. He rocks and has a huge lead in effectivness as well. So yeah, he is the best killer around. Another way to play offensive is to attack mainly for land. This is my sytle :) I saw one dude do really really well in stealing land, he joined us with a hand full of acres and is now top ten. He gained his acres amazingly fast, ery impressive. This guy is Recon. Great job!

Best Defensive Player:what does that mean, best defensive player, the one who defends the most? The one who saves most land? The one who kills most in defense? The one who organizes defense the best? Probably all of it. I cannot point out a winner in the whole playerbase, because I havent experienced defensive play in other allies. But from what I saw in Inter, this one should also go to Twigley. Because he did great in all the points mentioned above (except the kills naturally ;))

Best Moment of the Round: Seeing the biggest battle report i was ever part of:
Died: 2,445,209,170 [£68,722,142,936,800] enemies dead. 1,517,164,962 [£65,067,115,376,300] friendlies dead.
This was just a crazy amount of dead lets ;)
Another good moment was when we stole 40k acres from Pestif in retaliation. Awesome :)

Worst Moment of the Round: Realizing that a highly respected member of this community is cheating to win the round in valuation. Martin, I never thought you would go so low and need to do that, I am really disappointed. Another downer is the fact that he will get away with it, since Azzer was away while it happened.

Alliance of the round
This round I didn't see an alliance of the round. The top three alliances were filled with lies, exploitation and bad politics. Yes there were good fights, but an alliance of the round - I won't give that title away.

Best Offensive Alliance
Pestiferous did an awesome job on keeping up the offensives on Interlude. I, in Enigma, did try for a long while to get Enigma up there, being as active in attacks(Since we were the most active alliance for a large part of the round), but sadly the round proved simply to rough on a lot of our guys. So Pests, I give this one to you.

Best Defensive Alliance
I'm giving this one to Khaos. On oh so many occasions, Enigma players, as well as other highly ranked players tried and tried to land on Khaos - it proved very difficult. Great defence for the whole round guys, you would have been a force to reckon with if you'd had some higher ranked players.

Honourable Mention Alliance
I didn't have much to do with the smaller alliances, and I don't think many alliances deserve an honourable mention specifically. Basically any alliance that shook things up, never giving up, gets me honourable mention.

Worst Alliance
No specific alliance, and I shun those that did put a specific alliance. Leaders don't entirely make an alliance, the players working behind the scenes often make huge contributions. Basically alliances that condoned cheating, or never believed they could topple the top alliances maybe should change their attitudes. Anyone can win with this new system, it just takes a strong leadership and motivation, to all you up and coming alliances for future rounds.

Best Leader
Didn't see a great leader this round. Twigley didn't get my vote, as he didn't really do anything that spectacular, although his own alliance mates have said otherwise on here, heh, (Hope you liked the ego boost Twiggles :P). Step it up next round I say. :D

Player of the Round - Allied
The many SOs in the top 3 alliances this round. You prevented many attacks from landing, due to the unknown factor. Great job by all three alliances SOs, and I give 10 stars to all of them!

Player of the Round - Solo
I'm sounding like a broken record, but again I didn't really see an outstanding player. You solo's just seemed to live a meaningless existence this round, at least the top guys in the second half of the round. I do like the truly independent solo's however, so if you aren't an alliance solo, just think I gave you the solo player of the round award. :)

Best Offensive Player
DarkSider for sure. I just wish school didn't get in the way for bushtarion for me in the latter part of the round. I enjoyed stealth rushing with DS' bikers for a while there.

Best Defensive Player
The top PoM's proved alliance savers all round. Congratulations guys, and a personal thanks to those PoMs in Enigma.

Honourable Mention Player
The many players in Enigma who tired to motivate and get things moving.

Worst Player
Martin, Monk3h, Polo - All three take the crown for me. Martin, tut tut, Polo, tut tut as well. Monk3h just wanted self gain, and didn't find helping people to be in his system.

Best IRC op
Darryl. Always there to answer questions, and a great character.

Best Moment of the Round
Being involved in many memorable battles throughout the round. What's the point in having troops if you don't ever use them?

Worst Moment of the Round
Gohan leaving after we nurtured him for most of the round. :cry:
