10 days war?

I mean, yeah the combat is decidedly over but... am I the only one disappointed? While we absolutely needed to correct away from 8 month globals, this seems a tad bit of an overcorrection. Where were the twists? Where was the counterplay? Adaptations to evolving situations? Evolving situations at all for that matter? 😕

Blame the new war system. Ground and pound is way too effective of a strategy now to come back from without additional fresh counters to enter in.

Clearly we can use this opportunity to negotiate peace live in front of an audience.

If micro alliances wish to form, they can. If they get rolled, so be it. But nobody will surpass major alliances no matter how much effort they put in if the major alliances LITERALLY write the rules of the game.

The failure of micros has little to do with the rules and everything to do with the mechanics of the game and the general incompetence of the people leading them.

The correct and only consistent path to success is by joining an established alliance, using it to learn the game, to grow, to gain experience, and to develop a network of people who you can then take to form your alliance, or taking over said established alliance yourself.

This has nothing to do with established rules. If this game had no rules at all, the naturally forming scenario would still be the complete destruction of incompetent micros.

You can complain all you like about there not being protections for smaller alliances established in the rules, but the reality is, the major alliances, and the handful of people who run them, generate the vast majority of content in this game, are in most cases the ones ensuring there is some level of player retention, and the ones teaching the most new players how to play the game.

You know what I fricking meant. Your sphere alone would be fricking boring and we'll steamroll the frick out of you guys if you don't call in Rose and Camelot with you.

Idgaf about winning against you, I'm in fricking $yndicate. We fricking fight 5v1. fricking gangbangs. Shit we kicked the dead horse of ParaCovenant for 3 fricking years. We're doing a redux of it now.

I see you found your purpose again Eumir lmfao

I was worried for a minute there

I've taken all construction & woodworking classes available plus an interior design as well as math up to AP Stats 😜

Good when you are done you'll be able to put 2 and 2 together and work out everyone wants you to build a wall around yourself to drown out your erratic ramblings.

And you'll be able to spruce it up with a rug or something.

[Replacing beige with a beige bank]

I have an idea.

Roll back all the war changes made since the last war.

Then put the shill dev team to making non war related updates.

This is your chance to discuss. If you're rather use that time for unproductive posts then go ahead, but don't complain when features roll out which don't include your input because you failed to provide it during the opportunity to do so.

As opposed to when we discuss and make productive posts and then features roll out which don't include our input?

Alex is going to do whatever he likes regardless of whatever input anyone gives on anything, as proven by literally the entire history of the game.

Frankly my only question at this point is why. For someone who hates moderating the game and doesn't like public outcry and pressure, he seems hellbent on consistently implementing the most poorly constructed and disliked proposals by the vast majority of the active player base and alliance leadership in the most rushed and destructive way possible.

Correct me if I am wrong but that is 3 months into the war. Well before peace talks started and before any of the bullshit terms and the desire of IQ to run people out of the game became known. Once the government of tCW became aware of the terms being offered the vast majority of the government were opposed to most of the terms.

The war started because of Sphinx logs suggesting NPO and BK were still working together to hit everyone. Then IQ actually did work together and tried to make their hegemony power move. A fact everyone conveniently forgets in this thread.

Lots of people in here acting like they get off scot-free and can have room to talk shit because they left the war early. Imagine being anti destroying communities and pro hegemony and thinking you are a hero.

[Alliance Ranking 2020]

Relevance can be judged in a few ways tbh.

If the metric is power/ power projection then.

1 - The Syndicate

2 - Rose

3 - The Commonwealth

4- The Immortals

5 - Children of the Light

6 - The Knights Radiant

7 - Camelot

8 - The Ampersand

9 - Grumpy Old Bastards

10 - Schrute Farms

 

[Are we willing to forgive?]

TCW was 100% complicit with everything IQ did and only switched sides at the 11th hour when it was their turn to be screwed by IQ and wanted to save face.

Sphinx has since tried his hardest to pretend like he did nothing wrong, hoping his last minute side switch will provide him convenient cover.

So sure, TCW can get some forgiveness when they elect a new leader who didn't lick IQ's boots for a year.

[What if....?]

Glad to see you back Kastor.

It is me denying having a part in leaks. It's actually your task here right now to prove my involvement, otherwise you can CapsLock even more words and Lmfao around, that doesn't increase your logic by 1 percent. 

No better way to prove you didn't leak then to take part in more leaking.

Yes Lory leaked the merge? Your point is?

Thanks.

You need to improve your comprehension skills, Odin never leaked the North Point merge to Shifty. Your own head of academy (Changeup) knew who leaked the merge, so trying to lie about things won't help.

You claim its this guy ^ literally in your alliance.

Lmfao

Again, BIG BRAIN FA MIND

[SNN-Big Trouble in Little Keegoz]

Only Sphinx would, when accused of harboring a leaker who leaked to shifty, proceed to leak to shifty, logs proving hes harboring a leaker.

Truly a big brain FA mind.
