Maybe thats why there has been such a high emphasis on the 'winning block' as people are trying to avoid the reality that asc are going to win and apprime will have to suffice with a highly unmemorable second place.
The issue here is that there's a block of 5 alliances out there, just aching to get back into the game. AVA have a much better chance of getting through this round together than they do separately. The moment we turn on each other, either Ascendancy or Apprime will have a 200+ block on their ass, and a couple of days later, it'll be the other one. Vision would probably survive a bit longer, but it'd be a fairly dire situation for all of us, if only because there's basically no one else to cooperate with any more.

So while our cooperation is certainly at least partly rooted in great friendship, the reason it lasted this long is purely based on the AVA's need to cover their backs against the horde. You've driven us into each other's arms, working together was and still is the only rational choice.

I don't know if there's anything you can do to change that, not any more. By now we're so used to working together (and have such negative feelings towards the block), that I doubt we'd split up even if you all went into vacation mode. I'd be interested in hearing other people's opinions though. What certainly won't put you back into the race for #1 spot is continuing to gangbang us, it'll only strengthen our resolve to stick it out together.
