FAQ:
So without further ado let us look under rocks, listen to whispers on the wind and cast light upon the darkness that is UK50. I present (inserts drum roll) the TBC Top Tribes Thread. Please comment and if in the extremely unlikely event that I have made an error point it out (nicely) and I will amend and occasionally pop in an apology which may or may not be heartfelt.
Rank 1 NHS Points 90.455 ODA Rank 2 69k Rank 22 8k Villas 32. Marks out of 10 on Profile: 7. Lose marks on rubbish pic. Applaud sentiment on profile page but could do better!
High ODA shows they are clearing some folks but whilst they do have a few decent caps they have the PP abusers usual diet of stale crisps and young barbs. ODD looks like defending poor Carecry against some noisy neighbours and looking at the ODA shows that they must have done a pre stack and went big so kudos there. Some names I recognise and some I don't but now that they will need those PP players to rustle up some troops to go with those points and cement their position. They share a K with the Kinky family and so the noisy neighbour issues will continue unless they all hug (yawn). If they do go for the fun part of a world should be a decent war. Let us await this with interest. Anyway they are this week's Bobby Dazzlers so you have my respect. Bows.
Rank 2.WP Points 89k ODA Rank 3 51k ODD Rank 72 >1k. Villas 27. Profile: 2. Is a Pic but that is amidst some tumbleweed. Awful effort for a Rank 2 tribe.
The War Penguin family (sigh) live in the North West and their lack of ODD shows that they are selecting their targets well (the few that aren't barbs!) and not having issues with other tribes for now and looking at the competition in their k I would suggest that they will continue to have an easy ride. Caps wise one decent one and the rest mediocre and some high ODA for some of their folks with no decent Cap to show for it, which TW stats can't clear up. Still they should get an easy ride for now but I wonder if this might hinder them when they come up against a tribe that has had to fight a wee bit more and they struggle with the support settings as a family and the bickering begins. Longevity in their current form slim but the few decent players will no doubt quit or jump ship to better tribes along the way. Before they disappear perhaps apply some polish to their profile so at least they are prettier to look at...
Rank 3 See above but better Caps than the Warrior Penguins and a few decent players amongst the PP junkies. Are Rank 1 ODA which shows that they will mop up their neighbourhood quickly but it is after this point that I fear for their longevity. Having Rank 2 and 3 in the same k in a family on a tiny world is at best daft and at worst criminal but that is my view and I think I am a little behind the times in TW these days.
Rank 4: Cartel. 79k Rank 4 ODA 49k and Rank 13 12k Vllas 33 (No 1 in world)
Highest Caps so far but when you look beyond this lustre the quality of the caps is akin to Boris Johnson's hairdresser (if he has one I digress). They have lost a member to a Wizard living next door that shows that going all OFF is not so great or they have an inabiity to read a map and pre stack. They have a very impressive villa average and as long as their neighbours don't twig that they don't really do DEf (yes yes I see one player got all the support but I am still unconvinced as to how much def they have overall) they will go far but whether this will be like a comet burning brightly then disappearing time will tell. I have an inkling that they will do ok as I doubt their neighbours will want to take them on early which might come back to haunt them later on (the neighbours that is!) Oh profile gets a 3 out of ten but has some potential. Also a family tribe (sigh)
Rank 5 WOW. 67k Rank 7 ODA 35k ODD Rank 101 .1k. Profile 5/10. Simple but I like it.
Packed full of names and also whilst they have their share of PP Junkies they also have some wiser heads to tend to splurge on events and not just on trying to hit top ranks early. They are also blessed with a an easyish K to make their home and again have opted for the family route. IDK if I am missing something but maybe families are the way to go? Enlighten me but for now ugh!
Caps wise better than the tribes above them and their best cap looks like a PP junkie who left his troops down the back of the sofa or was out ratching in bins when he should have been at home. Maybe had popped out to buy some Leeks? Either they have NAPS with the other tribes early doors whilst they pick off the weak and the leeks but they are here to win so any dilpo will just be temporary. They know the game and I expect them to wrap up their k very quickly and show folks what NAP really stands for. Will only climb the rankings in the short term.
Rank 6 CSM 62k ODA RANK 5 45k ODD Rank 34 5k. Profile UK1 throwback so 7/10
Sharing a k with WOW so expect the worst though position wise they are in a good cluster and are a fair way from the WOW tribe (for now). If they can consolidate their position and work as a team might just give the WOW tribe a headache or two. Some good players and some I don't recognise (is me saying nicely not so good or new and under my outdated radar)
Ranks 7 and 9 Horny/Kinky family. Profile 4/10. Better than I could do poetry wise but this is not a chest beating achievement!
They have gone SE and SW showing some good organisation though again I worry about the choice of having a family here. Both K's have some tough opposition so they will need to be honey tongued and ruthless but for now and gorge on the free buffet part of the world but be keeping half an eye of the tribe s around them. If they get war ready and can run a decent op they might just be the surprise package of the world.
Rank 8 and 10.
Ugh a huggle of gigantic proportions but the odd name in there who will no doubt jump when all the targets turn blue. I do like the profile pick mind so a 7 there.
Ok I got bored at the end and I really need to get some gardening done but here is my very nearly Top 10 tribes. See you in a week or so?!
Is it a wee bit early? Yes almost certainly. Will it be updated weekly? Almost certainly not but I am starting this with the best of intentions but I have often set out with those...! Will it be biased? Cough no. Shakes head. Pinky promise..! Will there be scandal? Am hoping so. Nods. Will be A top 20? Lol no but I will do as many as I feel are interesting...!
