Hola players, watchers, mods (if they're there :p), dukes, and turtles of uk21. Welcome to what, depending on how its received, might become a regular thing from me. We shall have interviews, stats, stories and embarrassments!

So, lets begin with a little bit of chatter ive been having with Kiam, duke of the rank 1 tribe...

[17:38:19] Blue: So, 360, how long have you been playing tw, what world did you start out on?

[17:39:19] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): I played about 6 years ago, my first world was on.net, w12 i believe
[17:39:29] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): i played for about 6 months, then picked up on w19
[17:39:32] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): uk servers

[17:40:06] Blue: Ahh sounds good! So, being the most powerful guy on this world right now-how do you think its shaping up?

[17:40:43] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): Im interested to see if this is gonna be another hug bull shit world
[17:41:02] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): I hope its just fought out tribe by tribe, not tribes merging etc and dragging it out
[17:41:12] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): If that happens, i have high hopes

[17:41:53] Blue: Yeah, there are a lot of good players surfacing out there, and a few tight knit units. If you were worried about any tribe and/or player in particular, who would it be?

[17:42:22] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): If I’m frank the only tribe with enough talent for me to consider being concerned is IBF
[17:42:30] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): but Ted still has ALOT more
[17:42:34] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): so im not worried hehe :D
[17:42:54] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): Having said that there are good players dotted over in other tribes

[17:43:45] Blue: That's fair, but I look up the rankings and I don't see a lot of world winning experience in Ted. We shall see how things go.
The core is getting a bit hectic right now isn't it? You've got Ted, DMS and CATS all closing in on
the same spot - any conflict brewing there?

[17:44:07] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): I agree the world as a whole isn’t amazing
[17:44:50] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): Well Ted and Cats have agreed a temporary Nap with the intent to have a full blown war when other players etc are dealt with
[17:45:15] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): I have no idea what DMS are doing lol but they have got no chance, i can see conflict arising soon between us and cats

[17:46:01] Blue: That's a fair assumption I think stacks frontlines ;)
Do you have any standout moments from uk21 so far?

[17:46:32] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): Ummmm
[17:46:47] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): Not yet i don’t thinj
[17:46:51] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): i was shocked to see psaik go

[17:48:04] Blue: Yeah that one was a tad odd!
Final thing man
[17:48:24] Blue: Tomorrow you can rim any account, which one would you dearly love to get rid of?

[17:49:57] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): good question
[17:50:00] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): ummm
[17:50:13] 360EV (Playing Kiam Account): gotta be seanyboy
[17:51:55] Blue: fair enough, cheers for your time fella - have a good evening

I refer to the point that DMS, CATS and Ted are all converging on, and here it is:

db99da5aa5692a76a96b8deaae59ad53.png


Pink = Ted
White = DMS
Green = CATS
The red villas in the centre are teh fast crumbling FFS, who are being gobbled up rapidly. In fact, In Too Deep and anthonymc23 have capped over 35 of these villas between them in the last 5 dyas or so. Watch this space, these three tribes will soon run out of space and each have a possible two-front war looking at them. If this was the case my money would be on Ted to take out both of them with not a huge amount of difficulty. There have, however, been some murmurings of Ted not exactly being a team. Chatter about ego's and selfishness have emerged which wouldn't be ideal in a proper war situation. With IBF, im sure, monitoring this particular area of the map closely -this world could be about to get a lot more interesting

Moving on we have our second interview, this time from the Duke of CATS - Tedd (In Too Deep):

[17:36:09] Blue: So, tedd, when did you start playing tw?

[17:36:19] Tedd, In Too Deep: w18 .net
[17:36:33] Tedd, In Too Deep: so like 7 years ago?

[17:36:42] Blue: Yeah think it's something like that
[17:36:47] Blue: Do you remember how that one went for you?

[17:37:52] Tedd, In Too Deep: yeah went alright, didnt have a premium account and still managed to get to 1.5 mil or so, not sure how i managaed it
[17:37:57] Tedd, In Too Deep: alot of barbs i think
[17:38:17] Blue: Aha yeah, that's how a lot of us started, so how many UK worlds have you played?
[17:38:40] Tedd, In Too Deep: was on uk1 briefly, but uk8/13/15/17/19/21
[17:39:05] Tedd, In Too Deep: played uk2/3/18 briefly as a co joining established accounts

[17:39:24] Blue: Jeez, a lot of worlds!
Of course uk15-21 gotta be your faves :p
any moment on the server stand out?

[17:39:54] Tedd, In Too Deep: yeah i dont often stick around haha
[17:40:12] Tedd, In Too Deep: my favourite moment was making daz quit (cool) tho he wont say it was because of me
[17:40:37] Tedd, In Too Deep: probably because it wasnt, but i still like to think it was

[17:41:01] Blue: Haha, I remember that one, I think he got a job mate :D
On to uk21, hows it going for CATS right now?

[17:41:24] Tedd, In Too Deep: yeah probably something like that! ill still take credit tho ;) lol
[17:42:04] Tedd, In Too Deep: CATS is going well, since i took over weve gone from a family of 3 down to a single tribe, and i still plan alot of cutting and improving, so we can expect good things in the future, tho we will liekly drop down the ranks
[17:43:10 | Edited 17:43:25] Tedd, In Too Deep: due to reduced members, as im not planning on recruitment

[17:44:34] Blue: Yeah, I think we've all seen that improvement so far. Lets hope it continues!
For your own account, where do you see it being ranked in a months time and why?

[17:46:11 | Edited 17:46:39] Tedd, In Too Deep: Well, its hard to say, as ranks rely on others growth, aswell as your own. However, with a new co in place and a steady stream of targets, we can expect to see the In Too Deep account continuing to grow and should be able to compete with the current top 10 and maybe even break higher up

[17:47:35] Blue: yeah, I hear really good things about that co - one of the best they say...
That's good to hear then.
Final thing, if there was one account you'd love to rim tomorrow (for any reason) who would it be?

[17:48:38] Tedd, In Too Deep: well, there were a few, dannyjones, soul tear etc but theyve gone now. So i guess lets make a drama and say nibbler? yeah why not, i dont hate the guy but he seems to have it in for me so lets go go go lol

[17:49:07] Blue: haha fair enough!
Cheers for your time bro

Teddles sparking some chatter with Nibbler there, tho in past days it as become clear that they dont exactly see eye to eye...

Im relatively new to this world, so it will take me some time to get to know the major players within it. Ill begin to pick up on more news - and anything interesting passed on to me ingame or on skype (bluesteele16) for me to include next time would be appreciated. Please leave feedback, requests or just tell me to shut up and go away...

Rep appreciated as always.

Happy hunting fellas

Hopefully this doesn't die because whenever someone does a lot of effort into these things on .net they seem to disappear :/

Good evening Ladies and gents, dukes and duchess's, bashers and turtles, mods and ruffus! Welcome to the second piece of Blue News, and I hope you'll enjoy it.

So, I was bored at work earlier after some kid had done something stupid and it got me thinking, what stupid things can you do on tw?

Well, of course there are many things, mistime a nuke, miss your snipe, send as supp instead of an attack... Much much more! On a church world, though, the cardinal sin in my mind is the mis-use of those villas. Now im not talking about poor troop builds, even tho they should always be def. Im talking here about villa builds. The biggest advantage you can give your enemy is to tell him where your church villas are -if he takes them the others are like taking candy from Kiam...

So, hide your church villas! Dont let people see where they are at your peril! For me, its stupidity and pointwhoring to max your villa here with a church, lets see who those fools with a rim wish are:

Lets hope this lot are reading the externals and correct this... Or not if youre planning to op them :p

The usual interview segment then with ~RP~'s Duchess:

[17:05:23] Blue: So, how long have you been playing tw, where did you start?

[17:06:09] Chrissy : honestly... just over a year
[17:06:15] Chrissy : I started on UK18

[17:06:52] Blue: Ahh fair enough, so what account did you play, how did you get on?

[17:07:42] Chrissy : sicilini
[17:07:48] Chrissy : currently rank 4

[17:08:06] Blue: For your first world that's impressive, solo there or what?

[17:08:16] Chrissy : yes solo there

[17:08:51] Blue: Much Kudos to you then

[17:09:04] Chrissy : Ty

[17:09:34] Blue: Did someone show you the way or work it all out for yourself, I see you have 'clemmo' in your name, Simon have something to do with that?

[17:10:07] Chrissy : I did have someone show me, but wasn't Simon lol
[17:10:21] Chrissy : he left 19 and I took over his acct there

[17:11:01] Blue: Ahh excellent, ive played with Simon before, good guy.
[17:11:07] Blue: So, lets talk about uk21
[17:11:17] Blue: hows RP getting on?

[17:11:32] Chrissy : I think we're ticking along nicely
[17:12:28] Chrissy : with 18 ending, I'll have more time to focus and get stuck in on 21

[17:13:02] Blue: Sounds good then, hows the war coming along? against the TWZ family right?

[17:13:29] Chrissy : Yes against the TWZ family
[17:13:45] Chrissy : though not sure if you can call it a war lol

[17:13:56] Blue: aha bit of an easy ride?

[17:14:09] Chrissy : fairly
[17:14:34] Chrissy : haven't seen much skill from any of their players

[17:15:08] Blue: fair enough, so how do you see your lot progressing? challenging Ted int eh coming months you think?

[17:17:17] Chrissy : at this point, we're trying not to look too far into the future, but I suppose its something we'll have to do at one point or another

[17:17:39] Blue: Yeah I think we are all in the same position in regards to that!
[17:17:49] Blue: your own account, then, hows that doing?

[17:18:27] Chrissy : tbh I've been slacking lol
[17:18:40] Chrissy : not had much time to take care of it

[17:19:19] Blue: fair enough that is
[17:19:48] Blue: So, looking more widely again, in your short career -do you have a standout tw moment?

[17:21:35] Chrissy : hmmm...
[17:22:09] Chrissy : I'd have to say the last couple of ops against me on 19
[17:22:46] Chrissy : 2k ish inc with very few (if any) lost villas

[17:23:15] Blue: Ahh good stuff, youre on the opposite side that I was, tell Gix I say hola :p
[17:23:39] Blue: Finally then, and ive asked everyone this, if you rim one player overnight for any reason- who would it be?

[17:26:29] Chrissy : hmmm thats a tough choice, I really don't have bad feelings towards anyone

[17:26:52] Blue: No one at all?

[17:27:51] Chrissy : maybe devilfish, tho I'd rather not say why :D

[17:28:11] Blue: Im sure our community would love to know why you'd remove ruffus? :D
[17:28:23] Blue: You wont be the only one ;)

[17:28:44] Chrissy : lol it has nothing to do with 21, hence the reason I'd rather not say

[17:29:04] Blue: fair enough then, thanks for your time and happy hunting!

[17:29:27] Chrissy : np, and thanks

She came across excellently, kudos for the short career and good luck.

Nothing much has changed since the last post, not much to report other than some good movement from a few CATS players (no im not biased), taking a look at their top guys they are all growing really well, taking advantage of the FFS core meltdown:

05852eda78e3064717e6a76563f69738.png


Solid stuff being shown here, resulting in this tribe over takign ~RP~ to move up inot 4th place, right on DMS's heels. If we compare this to the afore mentioned tribe we see that their growth isnt quite so impressive:

441c58981909aee62b5c5b79166e34b8.png


Indeed, CATS' top 3's growth outstrips IBF and, i would say given their size - is considerably better than Ted's elite...

efa05c66a45e51ad394ae8e89b5be27a.png


Surely then, these 3 are ones to watch and are hot stuff...

That'll do for tonight that will, but ill leave you with this competition:
The person who posts what they consider to be the best example of defence before Saturday 23:59:59 will wina prize - im not not allowed to run comps for premium points so instead it will be more a Blue own currency of p.p - exciting times... This needs to be a screenshot of anything from a tight recap, to a tight snipe, splitting a nuke and train, whatever you like and I'll judge them.

That's all from me, happy hunting!

rep appreciated as always
