thanks tough. Indeed if you want a pvc... someone step up. if you want my PvC then wait till this weekend.. and come on guys.. we all know that by this weekend there is much more to tell about stability/consistency of every family

---------------------------

sneak preview:

The Elro Explorer.
Next time with 3 editors. Me as main editor and director. Deathwish as second editor and layout specialist. And I just hired another editor to help with the andro lineups etc.
A lot of new and cool features will be seen in the next edition.

Watch this space for the weekend edition of the 'Elro Explorer'

Maybe jets or some boobie wants to make one.. Myself and my lovely sidekick DeathWatch are waiting till this weekend at least

whut the fruit

no elbe is in a low family. he is stuck there with paradise. she told me yesterday

ob'd would seem more logical

I was not out to put up your lineup stunny. I know its good andro and mw. i just based my opinion on leader and 1 attacker .. soo

Keyplayers is something based on what I believe nolio did in the past. It is not always based on the best players.. sometimes I expect certain players do be good anyway and other players in a family need to prove themselves. Sometimes it are the best players depending on the family... either way I had to choose 2 so its not like the rest of the fam is not good

soooo... what else you got noobies!

and boohoo Skoe, I asked all families if they would tell me the alliance for the pvc.. so its no breach of anything

Pretenders vs Contenders II
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
Welcome to part II of my PvC, this time with a few new features.  Each family is graded on a few new things and on bottom of the page is a list with all current teams (allies) also a new ranking like last time but a bit different

As you know, comments are welcome. Bashing will be ignored!
Specials thanks to DeathWatch for styling my PvC and doing the econ ranks!

Have fun!

+ + + + + + + + +
Networth Rank: 1
Economy Rank: 1
+ + + + + + + + +
Key Players: Oxygen (NgX/ares) & The Joker. >> Oxygen has to show his true worth this round, attacking and leading. Another attacker in their fam: The Joker. Knowing who he is, he will be a important asset to this family if he plays well. Therefore my chosen keyplayers
[Allied to: Removed due to forum rules]
Opinion: I had this family up for contenders for the win last time and their smooth start has only confirmed my thoughts. They have a tiny lead on no2, and double of that lead on no3. Is this just a jump or has a tiny gap been made in Capricorn. They are certainly one of the strongest families this round.

Key Players: Joor (Jinx) & PickleArmy. >> Again a leader of a good starting family that has to prove his worth this round. I have chosen PickleArmy as second keyplayers since good attackers are needed and how pickle is going to perform is a key element in that.
[Allied to: Removed due to forum rules]
Opinion: Allthough this is a good family and they are currently ranked second, I don't think this is fam is strong enough to win this round. They have strong allies, which favours them but will that be enough. Nevertheless a strong family.

Key Players: Roxeanne & Pitbull. >> Maybe not inspirational but again leaders are important and therefor I chose Roxeanne. As second keyplayer I chose pitbull, this is because I think he is one of their main attackers and wars are going to be a deciding factor this round.
[Allied to: Removed due to forum rules]
Opinion: Last pvc I had them contending for top 10 and dutcher said to me the would be first. From start on the y have been pinned down frequent top 5 and top 10 rankings which shows us that Dutcher wasn't kidding. However they are not first yet and many fams are contending for top 5 and top 10 so they still have a lot more to prove.

Key Players: Archangel & Broker. >> Archangel often coordinates good families, I don't know whether he is controling things now. However I think he and broker will make a fine duo that will have to ensure their good ending this round.
[Allied to: Removed due to forum rules]
Opinion: Normally I would say a randommed family that formed up so late won't cut it. Their strong econ (yes strong econ, even though they get econ rank 9)this far shows otherwise and that might mean some nice randoms too! Ev Broker and archangel are fine players so its still a good family!

[Allied to: Removed due to forum rules]
Opinion: Strong family that grew into this format just after I made my last pvc. Good players in this family which has already been shown by a solid start. I think their attacking power is also top notch. Dangerous family this!

[Allied to: Removed due to forum rules]
Opinion: They are indeed relaxing, but still relaxing in top 10. means they got a nice fam and they have a few very good players. So definately a strong family. It all depends on the rest of the family is it good enough to win this round?
