Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

so when youre talking about 55's rank you say score doesnt say they were #1 but hwen youre talking about 61's rank then you CAN use score to say they were in the 20s?  funny bc in NW they were 12th when it all started then they steadily dropped to 15th

im dont arguing with self-centered dipshits -- ripper is worse than john mccain -- who like to tweak the facts in their favor

i never took anything away from 91/70s strenghts in gaining planets -- ever -- yet they like to rant and rant and tear down other players just bc it makes them feel good

back to PW where people actually do realize IC is meant to be fun wink

didnt you just do that to ripper?


anyway
score says 1055 finished #1.
this was a test round for score, the score system needs to be changed drastically as performance wise for the last 2 weeks, 1055 would be lucky to make the top 5

i said this when score was instituted, and will say it again. the only thing score does is give a 3rd topic to bicker about who won or not at the eor.

even with score, i along with prolly 80% of ic. say again, size is all that matters

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

TYMO what you fail to realize is that the people in 91 arent trying to take away too much of what 55 did.  You only look at hte parts that argue against you as opposed to when I said "You played a good round, you had fun, good going."  This was a TRIAL run for the score system, which had many "bugs" or "issues" or whatever you want to call them that need to be fixed.  In any other round size is what determined the real winner at the end of the round.  I, along with just about everyone else here, still agree that size is what mattered this round since score was in a TRIAL phase and rather buggy. 

But I'm going to give this part of my post its own section since you obviously need it lol

55 did play a good round up until the end.  tymo you did great defending your core, but it was only you doing anything.  so good job to YOU attacking wise.  Your fam did a good job infra wise as well and would ahve continued to do well except for your fight with kagar and whatever fam number you said attacked you.  Yes you were on top score at the end, but you also didnt really fight anyone until the end so getting the large lead was easy for you as everyone else duked it out.  Claim the "victory" if you want for the round, but deep down you along with everyone else in the galaxy knows that the real winner was teh size winner.... the most aggressive family of the round.. 91

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

Is it me, or is it really funny how tymo went from claiming outright victory, to making concessions and arguing while it was not outright they still go score (which counts according to him the most) and then started making up excuses of why their size is small ha.

I mean, the fact that you had 1 active attackers means you fam sucks. May be he is the greatest individual player and that takes nothing away from him, but as a team unit finishing  9th in size is pretty pathetic. Size is all that matters in this game really because it shows who was able to hold most of the galaxy at the end of the round. Score kind of mirrors it, but it also takes into consideration who had lots of planets in mid-round ..,. which honestly does not count for nothing. Who cares who was the most powerful a month ago ... we should respect only the guys who managed to pull it through the whole round and get the most planets. Just my two cents.

I don't fear beer :x

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

actually Gratitude 90% the posts about 55 all round have been trying to take away from us so dont go having a change of heart now wink

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

1. Don't think Gratitude has really tried to take away from 1055
2. Awesome, why are you even bickering? I believe even tymo said he is the only one in the fam worth a damn

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

the only attacker worth a damn.....

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

Thanks Undeath wink

All round I have said you guys have done a good job.  Yes I have said you guys havent fought much and infrawhored till close to the end of round... which the majority agree.  Yes I said you guys don't have much of an attacking unit... which is also true since it was only TYMO.  And yes now im saying you guys didnt win the round because you didn't have the size win... which the majority agree with as well.  I havent changed my heart on anything, in fact i have rarely posted in here and looking back on teh posts in 91 yes they have been more agressive than me in their posts but overall they have said you guys played a well round.... just infrawhored and rarely fought tongue

We ride together...We die together...

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

For the record, im not trying to take away anyones win... but the opposite.....

This game has many ways of playing it, so noone can judge the way others, exept expessing their views on it.

We have fam 3 ranks

3 winners in each.

And 2 player ranks, with winners there too.


Fam vice, I see this as an worlcup, like most sports. Soccer, fotball, Basket ball and so on. Within that season, there is cups, like world championships and tournaments like champions leage in Soccer.

To winn the Premier leage, you need most points at end of season. Those points reflects all results you had all round, and the one with the most wins the world cup title by overall win.

Then there is shampions leage, who determens the best team in a qualified tournament, and not overall over a season. The winner then gets that title, thats very hi in value and glory.

We have Score as the season leage, and NW - Size, as the tournaments, who determens the winner in the last match, just like EOR. They deserve to be the winners of those titles, and is equal winners as the overall score winners.

Then is the aspect of trying to get a dubble or a grand slam tri way win in ranks, and be gods.

All this is up to us to find out what we wanna go for, eighter 1 rank, or the grand slam...

Then you have the player NW - Size rank. These are the same, both counts as winners on a shampionship battle, where the winners stand in the end as best NW or Size players.


The strats then also for fams with few active players, but good ones left, to try going for a hi individual ranks for 1 or more in that fam. For that fam, score, NW and size dont count, and their strat is accordingly.

So I say its wrong to take away, or claim any win over fams taking the other ranks. The titles of all ranks is determend, and thats it.

This rounds winners should be listed in 5 top 5 or 10 rank lists, and be granted the congrats from the efforts they did in that particular rank.

Hope I cleard up my views a bit.

GONDOR.... The man! Great work big_smile

waste, the legacy of mankind.

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

Ps, this is a matter of adapting to the posibillities, not be stuck in the old ways ;-)

I think both 84 and 70/91, us  and other fams learned alot this round, and now knowing what strats to use next round, so I hope next round will be like old days action vice, and see many fams, players reach for their goals, and never feel safe :-)

45 smaller fams spread out should provide great action, IF we use the game as its designed and ready for wink

waste, the legacy of mankind.

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

Thats fair, but I think it will adjust itself when people realize the other ways to play. You dont need to be best in 1 paricular NW-Size rank, to be in the field Score ways. So overall fams often can balance more in their play, if thats what suits them best. While planet hunters, and infra whorers can play their ways, and cp
compete in the respective ranks. Once people can forget the comparing of ranks, and see them as individual ranks to win, then it would work great.

waste, the legacy of mankind.

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

All the bickering. hmm

Who am I?

Re: Pretenders Vs Contenders Capricorn Round 1

Also, Gondors listings, and be one of top 3 in any ranks, and get the name in the history records, for your grandchildren to look up on the net when your old, should be motivation enough, hehe
