Has anyone ever told you that if you want someone to come around to your way of thinking, it's best to adopt a persuasive style of writing.
The fact is.. urban are currently ranked top in points; if someone were to test them and they started dropping the ranks, then they'd end up where they are meant to be. Since nobody has tested them.. then the lie top. The fact that Bi! have been tested and they've fallen to 3rd.. shows that thats where they're meant to be stay. Unless the top 2 are tested and they drop further.
Seriously, you actually believe this?
You're looking at one statistic, and claiming that that sums up everything because it's all about "being tested". Sure, if tribes were dumped within noble range, and went one on one, then the winners were given a higher rank, then maybe the table you hold so much pride in with URBAN at the top would have some credibility. Unfortunatly, the world isn't like that.
Not only have Bi! been in more wars than all the little merged tribes that made URBAN put together, as proved by the fact they have nearly double URBANs ODT, but they're still around. If you look at all the tribes that have held the #1 spot for any meaningful length of time, 404, VDOM, DJLS and a whole host of others, only Bi! is still around. The others have all faded or merged away to maintain survival.
Bi! however has been Bi! since the world started. Just because they don't invite everyone who comes knocking, like Urban, doesn't mean they're the worse tribe.
Right now what you're saying is "URBAN haven't been to war, and they barb-noble/hugged their way up the ranks, therefore they're the best, even though they haven't proved anything, or beaten anyone." which is similar to "Well, the England team has loads of great players, they haven't beaten anyone, but statistically they should be one of the best in the world."
URBAN have beaten noone.
URBAN don't deserve their rank.
URBAN aren't a good tribe.
If you want to prove me wrong, do so. But until you have, and until your tribe has survived, outnumbered in terms of players and points, then think about how good you really think you are.
Pretty much yes.
If you have 2 x 10m tribes, both have the same amount of members. Then pit them against each other, the better side will come out on top and continue to grow. The weaker side will either stay where they are in points or start to drop.
Which will never happen. Ever. Tribes generally only declare when they think they can win, so one of them will look for an advantage, be it allies, or just timing.
Your whole idea is flawed, go back to dreamland.
