Topic: 77 vs 81

While we were in the midst of our own war 77 stooped to a new low and attacked us

4       Working our way to the top (3977)  [2,25]      1789      20044385      145603

14        Mutiny victory (3981)  [3,42]      872      7104721      52133


this strikes me as a little pathetic on their part...

Re: 77 vs 81

not really its a WAR game and 81 has a load of planets for the NW smile

I am the flail of God. Had you not created great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.

Re: 77 vs 81

cuz they have an attacker who will kick your ass if you try to take them tongue

Re: 77 vs 81

No, its pathetic indeed smile

Sex without the e is still SX!

Re: 77 vs 81

wats pathetic is you girls dont get your barbie dolls out and go play house smile

i mean i can just see you girls n Vegas playing poker and the goal is to take the other persons planets i mean money but you start calling the guy thats winning greedy after he starts taking 10% of the others money so he should leave that person alone.

go play with ur dolls leave the WAR game to the skilled players.

Re: 77 vs 81

there are so many flaws with your analogy I almost don't know where to start:

in poker, even if you're short-stacked you still have just as good a chance of winning as the guy who's been taking your money (or at least some chance, if he's a better player than you are).  You also (assuming it's not a tournament) can cut your losses and walk away at any time (100% protecting your money)

in IC, there is no free protection option, and if you are up against an active fam 3 times your size you have a 0% chance of winning a straight up fight.

We can agree to disagree about whether or not farming a much smaller family is pathetic or not, but if you're going to argue your case you gotta come up with something better than a lame analogy that betrays your lack of intelligence--or at least lack of thought.

Re: 77 vs 81

ClaudioKilgannon, your war is against 3990 (5.9 Million NW) and you called your allies in to help you.

3981 (7.3 Million NW) + 3979 (7.6 Million NW). That's 15 Million NW against 5.9. Almost 3:1.

That's fair, but the 3:1 against 3977 isn't wink.

Re: 77 vs 81

kenny rogers might be helpful in this equation considering his whole "you got to know when to hold them, know when to fold them, know when to walk away and know when to run" stance

So I told the cop, "No YOU'RE driving under the influence... of being a JERK!"

Re: 77 vs 81

The networth is skewed that way now but when the war started our fams were all about the same size.  I do see your point, but I think the situation is different, and here's why...

Don't you have allies to help you fight back?  If we as allies are planning to attack someone, I don't think we should have to go after a family that's as big as our combined size (incidentally we didn't plan to attack you together, it just so happened our families were both independently planning to do so).  First, there is more synergy with a single fam than with 2 fams that combined equal the same networth, and second each family is allowed, and should have, an ally to help them out.  It's a fair assumption that you guys should have allies to make it an even fight, and that a fam as big as us and 79 combined would have allies that are probably the same size, and would kick our asses if we tried to take them on.

If you take the same logic and apply it to our situation with 77, it still makes it seem like 77 is picking a much weaker opponent.  So while I see what you're trying to say and it did make me think a little bit, I think the two situations are much different and I'm not caught being hypocritical big_smile

Re: 77 vs 81

no the problem i have with you girls is

1. you try to impose YOUR opinion on others such as what defines farming and you cant.

2. you try and impose your own rules on this game and its not yours to make the rules up. its the games creator and since rules ALLOW that fam to attack your fam who are you or any other whiner to say it cant be done or call people names that are following the rules?

3. and lastly i can see u r too ignorant to figure out that even in IC as with poker you can quit anytime u want to and take ur chips/planets away from the game.

why cant u wimps just take an ass whoopin and stop whining cause who cares if you come in 10th  or 3rd you lost the game if u didnt come in 1st?

Re: 77 vs 81

lol dp no ur not a bitch whiner smile

Re: 77 vs 81

you are making broad statements and accusing me of actions that I have never done.  It is not a crime to have an opinion and it is my opinion that beating up on a fam 1/3 your size is pathetic.  The only applicable response from you would be something along the lines of "I think beating up on a fam 1/3 your size is NOT pathetic, and here's why..." 

for your point #3 quitting IC and quitting poker are still 2 very different things (if you can't see why please say so and I can explain), like I said you are betraying your lack of intelligence/thought by posting something like that.

If it's too difficult for you to post a mature response then we're done talking.  If you can manage (and care enough) to put together an intelligent argument then maybe we can benefit from the conversation.

Finally, I feel like I should head off your inevitable post about how it's "within the rules" and point out that being "within the rules" and being "pathetic" are not mutually exclusive, so pointing that out doesn't do anything to deter my opinion.

Re: 77 vs 81

i dont desore to post anything u would call intelligent because then it would be ignorant to me smile

Re: 77 vs 81

lol well im not gonna defend my fam's attacker(s) in this matter ... but lets at least say that many of us werent even aware of what was up or we wouldnt have lost so many planets when Heavensthief started clearing. This is not a concerted effort on our part though after the grab HT did, some clearly woke up. Still, even i agree that, if this is the best we can manage, we had better just sat on our arses till EOR. And it feels kinda weird having WS defending us in this matter ... still, thanks i guess tongue

When speaking your mind, it is of utmost importance to keep using it !
