Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

well, some players differ from their point of view when it comes to score, but i think both networth and planet size matters

if a fam focus on networth only, it may show how much committed they are to keep building either infra or fleet, or show off their skills in their networth jump, sometimes pretender fam will try to win networth ranking instead of planet size

however, most veterans usually focus on planet size ranking because it show how much strength they can do to gain planets fast or how much aggressive a family can really be, but planet size is very important because if you have more planets, the more cheaper you build and more faster growth...i noticed there is flaw in this because very often a fam in top ten usually focus in attacking more than building infra, which caused them to stunt their growth while pretender fam trying to catch up because they're focusing on infra, they could try become contenders and challenge the stunt growth of contenders

it really depend on strategies you can use by using networth ranking or planet size ranking. we should honor to both fam who win networth size and planet size, but a GREATER HONOR to ONE FAM who win both.

I agree this is imperial Conflict, not imperial building

But in abundance of counselors there is a victory."

LOL.... It's been about size for the past 5-6 years i would say. Once people started figuring out how to jump a player with a high con bonus for EOR it switched from NW winners and Size winners to just winning size. Anyone could do an EOR jump in NW so it lost any real achievement

Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

youve never heard that term valenka? its a good one big_smile a bit of an old one, one of those old sayings, and my grammer was off too its

"flying, two legged, ****" im not really sure why.... it means you dont give a damn....

and dont get me wrong... i think EoR jumps are the stupididest thing in the world... but NW = is essentially your points, it takes into account your size as well cos each planet costs 800 nw... so.... what have we learnt children....... that NW takes into account Size? but Size doesnt take into account everything else? yikes well what could this mean? yikes well... it would imply that networth is indeed the most important aspect of the game, whats better 200 empty planets or a 100 built ones in terms of practical use...... quite clearly the 100 built ones...

WS..... i have been reading these forums for the past 3 andro rounds... and not once was size brought up more important than nw....... nw was used for updates..... nw was used to discuss......

please also dont misunderstand me... in ICC size should be used, in a 6 week round, which determines who goes into the final, then clearly you cant have someone sit around and do nothing, although technically with size.... someone could still do that... as if they play a defensive game, and everyone else is being attacked. they could end up 3rd by default,

thats despite the point! anyway! should notice as well Valenka, i made my first post in ages? possibly in this round a couple of pages back, and then i was verbally assaulted by OrBiT and then Kagar, for no real reason... this would imply although they claimmmmm size is more important.... there a lil pissed that a family is doing better than them.....


o and by the by...... heres a lil evidence.... two times my family has grown to number 1.... in nw of course, although we have been number 1 in size too, but anyway each time we were number 1 910 attacked us..... so why is it excactly.... that they dont want us finishing number 1 if it means so little.......

Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

I think he was trying to point out that if size is the only thing that matters, like you are suggesting, then why did 910 banker raid, nuke, zap and effectively try to lower 903's networth in anyway possible instead of "gaining and retaining planets " which is the only thing (your saying) that matters.

In my opinion both rankings are clearly important and until EOR jumps at least, nw is a solid indicator of what a fam is packing behind the planet count which is easily as, if not more, important than pure planet size

Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

I promise you that if 910 and my fam(897) wanted to focus on PURE infra we'd be nr.1 and 2 in NW by miles. We haven't done any serious jumps or infra builds this round. NW is boring anyway. Size IS and will ALWAYS be what matters in the end.

I can't count how many fams I've encountered during the rounds that sits in their core and builds all round long, then when they face attacks they crumble to pieces due to no knowledge of how to attack and defend. Not saying that 903 wouldnt put up a fight but they'd eventually fall just like 898/912 this round.

Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

good post darksider33. i agree with you

...

Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

Lethal, when 910 attacked us i had jumped infra, because they were starting a war with 899 that last 2 ticks, i had 38 iron in bank when they had a fleet jumpfor war. My fault not to have guessed it, but couldnt imagine that 899 having like 15 sytems shares would be abble to take only 2 planets then surrender...
Anyway too many inactives so we would have lost in any case

Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

Sitting in your core and just defending is not skillfull, no. I doubt there were any serious attacks aswell...Retaking planets is no biggie. Anyway, too bad the round wasnt longer and that there were too many systems.

Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

smartz if your not gonna read a post, dont try argue against it lol

and lethal you are correct, if you and your allies 2 v 1 us, you most likely would beat us tongue

and lets get this straight... i respect 897 a hell of alot more than i respect 910

897 actually fought us at the start of the round, for honourable reasons and made it a good fight, admittedly we never sorted the fine details of a nap out but i still respect them for our early round encounter, 910 have showed me nothing of the sort of a winning family, they clearly have been trying to get up on planets on us for a long time now and continue to fail. If this is there level of attacking then they the only reason they are higher than us in size is cos they attack lower families... or use cheap tricks such as they did on 898 and 912

gah anyway i never wanted this argument, i never started it and would like to make it clear it is not the whole of 910 who are bunch of idiots, just a couple of them, dimpel has my respect, smartz does if he stopped making silly comments tongue his improvement since he played with me has been immense, and im sure many of there randoms

Kagar and Orbit however.... your aggressiveness in the game is perhaps slightly over the top, but i could live with that if you were actually decent people, but it seems since i first played with you in triangulum you have become more and more arrogant, you were both nice people once, i am not picking a fight, just merely saying you should reflect on your attitude, sportsmanship is a great quality, even when it comes to computer games.

Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

blah blah blah just a bunch of b**ch not geting what you u want give it a rest 910

We're going to play a wonderful game called...

Re: Andromeda Round 33 PvC

135 from #903
118 to #903

thats from all fam news over this round

Please stop trying to defend youself chris.  Since i met you all those rounds back in MTG you've always been a let down of a player. 

I have no problems about the way you and your simple players play, but don't try and tell me your better than us.  because all facts prove your not.  and your just digging a massive hole for yourself.
