i thought you had quit adellion?... why even bother coming online?!!
Read my leaving speech again, and listen PROPERLY to what I say about me quitting. I distinctly say I would maintain a mild forum presence. Ignorance. Stop being so deluded, it makes you look foolish. Even Radarr knew full well that I hadn't quit the forums. Please direct me to where I said I quit the TW forums. I think you'll find I never said anything of the sort.
And even if I somehow had said that, I can easily overrule myself. I could ask you the same question; why on earth are you on these forums? Go back offline!!!
anyways... since vital have joined they have been very good in =fate=. they are good players, not cannon fodder. so far they have put up a good fight on the frontlines and have brought strength from the west along with MS.
Stats don't lie, Vital suck. I waltzed through them and I didn't put any effort into them. They tried to OP me and I except for 2 full defence villages from Battleaxe, I needed no support whatsoever, despite the few hundred attacks that were sent at me... no timings, nukes after nobles, defence villages hitting me... so weak, so pathetic, so inferior... please, do not suggest Vital were any good. I saw the level of FAIL with my own eyes in those horrendous reports. Mixed villages? Nobling barbs? Pathetic.
and if vital were crap... why have they not been rimmed. the only reason that they couldn't put up an amazing fight like =fate= is because they were so small in comparison with bi! etc.
Vital could not be rimmed because they nobled barbs so much while we took their large 9k villas. For every 9k village we took off them, Vital would noble at least 5 1.5k barbs, making our targets multiply. However, we were still taking villages in greater numbers off Vital, so its clear to say that Bi! were victorious up until their destruction due to non-Vital related issues. As a result, Vital still are very inferior.
=FATE= are just too nice. Talon should've crushed the noobs in Vital and taken the best... its not like the noobs will amount to anything near a threat, so they can just be used as slaves to grow up barbs to a larger size for =FATE= to take at a later date. That tactic worked very well for me (on Smile?) when I allowed *BK* members to noble a few barbs near me, so that I could take them when they were 9k. Cannon fodder. Gotta love that stuff.
remember everyone! don't under-estimate the little players, it has been proven on uk4 numerous times that the smaller tribes can put up a good fight and remain strong!
In theory, a fully loyal tribe is immortal. Tribes are never defeated until they either merge into another tribe, or their players run away in excessive defeat. Perfect loyalty means players never run away, they do not dishonour their name by merging, therefore they are undefeatable. They may possibly lose in the conquer stats. But that's not a defeat cause the battle isn't won.
Ofc, perfect loyalty is an impossible concept in TribalWars; there is always one noob that will run from his tribe or do something disloyal etc.
Red.
Btw, craig123, please try and familiarise yourself with TwStats statistic output before running your mouth, those comments of yours were rather embarassing for yourself.
=FATE= wouldn't have beaten Bi!, they'd hit a brick wall consisting of Smile? & BattleAxe, and we'd hold your entire tribe back, given our activity when we both played. I'm not being cocky, I just know what I can and cannot do, and I'm confident I could frustrate =FATE= indefinitely. As proven by the inability of =FATE= to actually hit Smile? until a few days after I had quit. Convenient.
And please don't give me BS about Rev being sat; perhaps I can accept he was being sat as clearly whoever was sitting him was an appalling defender and I know Rev can play better; however, as I acknowledge I had no idea he was inactive/sat at the time (remember, I was still seething at his boldness to internal Vital just to create a cluster near me, so I was eager to set an example of annoyances in my territory) I went into that OP against Rev fully assuming I'd lose several nukes and trains.
I don't really blame =FATE= for taking morning star in; any advantage, over +PEST- who are quite the resilient tribe (being the oldest, that is a fact), is an advantage best abused, no? No, I'm just astounded at morning star's lack of loyalty and patriotism towards his former Bi! members (let alone his steadfast allies in +PEST-) and his Grant-like mentality of caring only for himself. I have difficulty seeing the difference between these two men. Grant screwed over Bi! and morning star included; surely wouldn't any intelligent man not repeat the same mistakes as his former duke, in terms of loyalty?
I smell cowardice, fear of the enemy, and therefore, inferior gameplay. Weak. Those plunderers of the day don't make him a good player at all. His fear of the enemy lets him down. His focus on farming at the cost of warfare is weak. He has far more internals that many in ex-Bi!, even more than Smile? Smile? however, has the right to those internals; he had rank 1 ODA too, so he has fought, and fought the most in the world. BattleAxe has almost never taken an internal and its a fine account too.
I apologise if I portrayed BattleAxe as egotistical. He is not. He's a much more modest man than me. I am egotistical on the forums. People don't like it. I really don't care, its the persona I choose to adapt when posting text-based messages on the TW forum. It is my right; anyone who doesn't like it, either don't read my posts or the forum. Your choice. Live with it. You can block certain posters. I really don't care if people with obvious tunnel-vision block me. Though I'll miss the petty attempts to argue back with me.
Ego is permissable when you are clearly in a position to be egotistical (due to your superior skill compared to the majority of players). Its not necessary; its simply a choice some good players make to precisely wind up their enemies. By being irritated, you simply play into an ego's hand.
The only way to really "beat" an ego is to have a laugh and go along with it. Those who realise its a massive joke, tend to gain a great amusement when they are "in" on the joke. So try and be in it.
Alternatively, try and fight it, and a competent ego will always win with almost 100% accuracy. (Trust me, I know.)
Enjoy the lecture much?
