Buorhann Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 3. Both BoC and Cornerstone dropped their treaties BEFORE or DURING their transition into Syndisphere. So yet again, my point stands. 5, TLF has been in Syndisphere for awhile(OO branch) but I have no idea when you reached out to them. 6. You're posting out of your ass. 7. You have no evidence to back it up. I've been a leader for 2 months and Roz Wei helped its "allies" when I was in gov there so I'm not really seeing what you're saying here, and I didn't cross anyone then so why would I now? 3. >"won't sign any alliances that aren't in Syndisphere. It's literally impossible." Where were they before they got signed again? I shortened down your quote, hopefully you'll see it. 6. I'm having to stoop down to your level, unfortunately. 7. Ok. 1 Quote Warrior of Dio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfPCFQfOnLg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatkitteh Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 This is so far off. You're comparing apples and oranges. TKR is an alliance that has always been on the winning side from its inception. It is a lot easier to play as a winning side alliance than otherwise in every aspect of the game, both mechanical and FA-wise. Most of their FA groundwork was actually laid when they were using slack and everyone else was using IRC, so they weren't particularly out there in the public aside from some posters. It's not comparable in the slightest. Your attributing their success to their recent gov expansion is really far off. I'm not taking away from what they've done, but attributing what amounts to a years long process to these recent developments is inaccurate. They got powerful and then expanded their presence, not the other way around. Orbis "community" is mostly on one side, which usually results in open hostility, which is why we get sick of the interaction and why it appears we're reclusive. The atmosphere on these forums and on discord is often pretty toxic. You can call it whining, but posts like this are exactly the reason. We've been perfectly willing to have serious discussions with everyone even if we pointedly disagree. Paperless interacts with the community all the time, but you managed to start multiple wars against them at this point. --- On the general topic, it's a usual progression for games to consolidate into one megasphere, just the pace at which has happened has been fast and the relations haven't frayed like they would in other hegemoney situations, so we're in a situation where everyone is comfortable with their position and no one wants to change things. Wars are frequent and relationships take much longer to fall apart in comfortable situations. The govs have largely remained the same in the ruling bloc, so they're used to working with each other and for many that have come up through the system it's all they know. It's just always been kind of ironic given all the talk about how this was such a politically dynamic game and how Paracov were stagnating it for signing the treaties or that import alliances were stagnaters and this was some sort of utopia that didn't replicate the same patterns and people did things to keep it fresh. I read all of this. Quote :sheepy: :sheepy: Greatkitteh was here.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callum Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 You do realize that's exactly what happened with SK right? There's a few alliances that I think could be pulled away with some effort. In fairness to his argument, When we left on our own accord. we attempted to gauge the interest of some Syndi-sphere AA's. (to be less structurally biased against a particular sphere) But what parties we did talk to had little interest in leaving the winning side. (Which no one can fault them for.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a lot easier to play as a winning side alliance than otherwise in every aspect of the game, both mechanical and FA-wise. I'll agree that it is easier to play as a "winning side", but... why is that? Is it because they work well with the rest of the coalition of leaders? Is it because they actually listened to constructive advice about what works and what doesn't? Is it because they give players a chance to showcase their skills and contribute to the overall think tank of what works/what doesn't? But ok, you obviously know more than I do, I suppose. I will concede on that one point, NPO did come in with nothing much laid out for them other than having support from a couple of alliances they were familiar with in that other game while TKR did have a solid foundation laid out for them. That still doesn't change my mind on the fact that NPO could very well match TKR, however, and I'm basing that off of our experience in Mensa. You have a concentrated growth just as we did, except we didn't purposely keep ourselves stunted for long periods of time. Pretty sure if Mensa had the numbers that NPO has, we'd be #1 in score, easy - but I understand that isn't your goal (Which is fine). My point is just that NPO could easily match TKR. 1 Quote Warrior of Dio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfPCFQfOnLg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rozalia Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Two points in regards to this. The first is that the paperless sphere no longer has the Realpolitik vibe that it used to. Paperless used to be a freeing concept, but now in a way it has become a series of alliances between Test/RW/Arrgh that are merely not in paper, but stand anyways. This talk about Pantheon is an example. You had no obligation to that I am aware of, but did once your friends did, you did. AKA an alliance. VE was not targeted despite being paperless, and this is because they were not perceived as part of the sphere, which shouldn't even exist due to being paperless. As for the hanger ons, they may get shit on, but they do it for a reason. People in this game have a long memory, and allies want to see effort on their allies part, even if it has little practical effect. If you appear to have no value and are using treaties as a shield, guess whos paper might get burned when push comes to shove. We entered with them because it was the smart thing to do. Had we entered elsewhere I knew it'd be 168 all over again with anybody and everybody throwing attacks our way. Entering with TEst and Arrgh made it so if a counter came it'd have to also be directed at them. Our interests aligned and we did something, not much to it. I would say someone that is afraid of not getting their kudos for use later are unlikely to break off and throw said kudos away. While I don't like it, its not something I care much for and will always exist. I know it used to be that alliances would huddle with the other group of boys because they were afraid of Mensa (how I perceived it with some of the things that were said and the hate Mensa got among some groups). Now that refuge is gone perhaps they huddle with whatever you might call this sphere now... though I don't think Mensa is quite the reason (or sole at least) for that now, likely with this sphere being the only game in town that is considered safe.

In general, if you're on the winning side, you don't take as much damage as alliances that lose. Wars often result in lesser damage, with the last war being an exception since it came closer in damage, but the security of being on the winning side enables you to grow without having to worry as much as well and spend more on it. If you're constantly losing, you won't be able to do as much in peacetime since your rebuild will take longer than for the winning side. You can also advertise winning wars to attract people and in general, it's a huge benefit since alliances will also also gravitate to the winning side. Even before Paracov fractured, alliances knew being on the Syndisphere would be the better deal for them in terms of how difficult wars would be and were attracted to that. As for why the winning side achieved a string of victories largely because there was no cohesive other side at any point. If Paracov had the level of cohesion that Syndisphere did and actually had coordinated in peacetime when it was still in existence and had settled on actual goals rather than being a largely reactionary non-entity, the game would be a lot different. I'm not disputing they worked well with the other alliances since there wasn't the level of distrust like between the Paracov alliances since Paracov was mostly a team of previous rivals, which isn't what Syndisphere was in the slightest. I'm not disputing they performed well mechanically either. It's not really the same as Mensa, since aside from the setback in the VE War, you have had success since then. We've also experienced relatively high attrition since we've had a lot of people decide to leave browser gaming. I'm not making excuses, just explaining. When we were focused on growing as fast as possible, because we lacked that kind of security and people knew we were spending a lot on growth we were deliberately targeted in mass raids and there were scenarios where we'd have gotten pulled in like the Alpha War and scenarios where we did get hit like in June, with the other side knowing we weren't really at capacity to fight those. In the past month or so, there have been several incidents where we might have had to have intervened. If we tried to match TKR or anyone on the other side statistically, that would likely be exploited before we'd be ready and we would essentially have built ourselves further into tiers where they dominate more absolutely and unable to offer real resistance in a war. From a gameplay perspective, just getting zeroed out in the first round and then pinned down for the rest of the war isn't particularly attractive as well. .

Tiber Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 It's amazing how everything is t$/Syndisphere ruining the game. I mean ffs, I am going purely off the wiki page here, but in the Silent War, you guys had more total alliances, more total score, the advantage of being the aggressors, and you still lost. Somehow this is part of Syndisphere ruining the game. I mean honestly, are we supposed to just let you win? Paperless probably could have turned the tide of that war. I recall being pretty damn nervous when I saw TEst was hitting Pantheon, and of course RW and Arrgh tag along. But nah, they were playing the game how they wanted, and that didn't involve taking down Syndisphere, because they don't care that we are at the top. They just wanted a quick hit on an already engaged alliance and to get out before they burned too many of their pixels. It's not our fault that we keep winning. If you want someone to blame for where we are right now, then you should be looking somewhere else. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ELPINCHAZO Posted December 29, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2016 Well, as much as Kylo and Pre would love to derail this and make it about me (And goddamn do I love me) and my exit from TEst, its not really the point I was making. Plus it was by all rights a long time ago and I honestly would rather not go into it, because doing so would simply be me and Pinchy shitting on each other. Frankly, I don't want to do that. Yet you still want to invoke my name just to passively sling a little shit since I'm not here. tsk tsk! Besides, the actual TEst peeps know where I live. If I was such as big of a shitlord as Pre has stated, you guys would have burnt my house down already. remember when I sent you flowers and chocolates on valentines day? Well cupcake,since you chose to invoke the demon, I'll toss my two bits into the trollop's anus. 1. Jodo wasn't kicked out of TEst ,he left on his own. He was omitted from leadership rolls at that point. He ultimately left because of me and I'd offered to leave instead but I believe his pride was a bit wounded at that point. He said something to the effect of "Let TEst burn or whatever,I don't care" which clearly indicates quite a bit of caring for anyone paying attention ever. 2. Part of this call out is really funny since 'elitism' and I'll even wage 'paperless',to a degree, were parts of the early TEst blueprint. Jodo actually used to brag a lot about building a small elite unit to take down a monster (this concerned a war on a different world,the original Purple Whale Hunt. Jodo had actually left TEst for the first time a bit before that war) . So honestly, part of this is like holding a mirror up to yourself. In closing, Jodo crapping on TEst is a bit of autocoprophagia. But I'm fairly sure he never cared for Pre much (which,I always assumed was ironically for a few similar character traits ... which I find kind of hilarious) , so for him it has to kind of be like seeing your ex with someone you REALLY can't stand. The rest of the discussion about 'the game' is really just political meta-gaming,anyone that can't see that or falls into that trap is a first class dunce. Jodo, Dude (this is just for you) - I still love you man,no matter how many angry messages I got on FB from your buddies. I will always be your big spoon.

Charles Bolivar Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) Megaspheres form, consolidate and expand, become unstable before imploding. It is the natural order of things. Failing to recognise this and remaining stuck in the same mentality of " must fight syndisphere, OO and Mensa " war after war is just outright lazy FA. Any skilled FA person worth a damn recognises when an approach is clearly failing and adapts their approach accordingly even if it means making diplomatic overtures to their traditional foes either directly or indirectly. Does that mean a treaty to BK, TKR, Mensa or syndi? No, there are plenty of other AAs on that sphere which can easily and indirectly provide a level of protection by mere indirect association If you don't want to do that then fair enough, it's your right to do so but don't !@#$ and complain when you act like an enemy consistently and are treated accordingly. This is a competitive game, don't expect the opposing side to make it any easier for you, it is your own responsibility to improve your own standing. As for this nonsense of it being harder to sign new treaties because of opposing syndi, OO and Mensa. These difficulties are a result of your own choices, make new choices and follow a new path and these difficulties will fade away. If you choose not to and instead want to keep on following the same path then feel free to keep !@#$ing about one sphere killing the game and using that as an excuse to justify lazy FA. In regards to elitist AAs, I believe it comes down to differing motives. I for one am in an "elitist" alliance simply because I was sick of paying taxes to fund lower tier growth without ever seeing any real benefit for myself which I can't gain right now in an alliance with 0% taxes.

Popular Post Licorice Posted December 29, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2016 >"Just do your own things and Syndisphere will ignore you" > had warmongering alliances like Mensa and BK that will roll just about anyone once the boredom meter is filled leh Let's, for one damnable moment; forget all the salt fests, rivalries, bias opinions and admit the fact that Syndisphere is better than any spheres or alliances in the other side of the game in virtually every aspects. Which is one of the primary reason why they manage to murder off and replace Paracov as the top of the food chain; the other being every unaligned ended up joining Syndisphere to fight against the previous "hegemoney". Paracov is, for all intent and purpose, an alliance of conveniences formed when both Paragon and TC got their ass kicked and it's clear that Syndisphere power is growing way too much, too fast. As such, they all have horrible communications and coordination (Keegoz telling Rose they're rolling in less than a day before Silent War for example), coupling with the facts that their members have horrible understanding of game mechanics (using ships, missiles, nukes, no full militarization, wasting resources) and the refusal to make necessary changes (UPN electing Hans again for the who-knows-how-many times) and horrible FA and PR (members sounding illogical and almost retarded on the OWF) guarantee that their only purpose of existence is to be Syndisphere punching bag until they broke. The sneky sphere in question on the other hand is the complete opposite; had a much tighter community, really good at war, little-to-no rivalry, good FA. Honestly the only thing I don't like about them is the tendency to roll and trash talk allies that they once speak fondly of (SK, TEst) the moment they turn into the enemy. And now they're the one with massive stockpiles of cash, resources and members. So, taking the facts together, the chance of an underdog sphere (at best, the rest of the game - which will never happen) taking on Syndisphere and win is, unlike how it was with Paracov back then, 0, impossible, non-existent, whatever you want to call it. Any alliances that are still not in Syndisphere by now are either full of total newbies, have a general dislike of specific alliances in said sphere, massive E-peen or just plain suicidal. Not saying they didn't deserve it (they totally did) and again, as others have mentioned, they're not obligate to keep the rest of the game happy or balance. Though it certainly won't change PnW survival rate. ------------------ Asking for alliances outside Syndisphere to magically band together and "git gud" is frankly impossible for points already mentioned multiple times: - Nobody will leave Syndisphere unless it's guarantee they won't come to harm (we saw what happen to those that do lol) - Treatying Syndisphere with hope of pulling alliances away from them being virtually impossible as long as they're still the #1 indomitable juggernaut with tight-knit community that roll alliances whenever they feel threatened. - Assumption that everyone wants to beat Syndisphere and thus would work together is not real (our resident Dark Lord as a prime example) - More than half of the remaining alliances outside Syndisphere are absolutely shit with virtually no contact with each other and little possibility of ever "gitting gud". - Superiority in resources, numbers, coordination, etc. ------------- tl;dr syndisphere beat paracov because paracov is shit, nobody beat syndisphere because syndisphere is good 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I !@#$ like those goofs. I didn't want to "switch sides", i didn't want to "form a bloc" and I didn't want to "change the game". I like them so much would have probably signed them if the were trash. People on both "sides" need to stop giving a !@#$ about "winning", which is a moot point in a consistent state game, and build actual relations. If you're signed to someone you don't like, drop em. If you want to sign someone you don't like to roll someone else, !@#$ off and do your own rolling. So. . . You like kastor? Wait shit, NPO signed kastor. !@#$ Quote :sheepy: :sheepy: Greatkitteh was here.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
