Put another way, CT played their politics well and avoided making unnecessary enemies. Unlike some others. You should
really learn to stop putting your alliance on center stage all the time. Ultores' and Apprime's (perceived) ego is one of the reasons many people dislike you so much. There's nothing wrong with having a big ego, but expecting (nearly
demanding) that other alliances allow you to win despite that... well, maybe that's not the most reasonable of stances.

I suppose there's nothing to the most militarily able alliance trying to paint all other forms of skill as inferior.

Ultores "should" have won if they had been able to prevent "60%" of the universe blocking against them. But you ****ed up, and it's not the first time you **** up in this exact way. Similarly, Ultores "should" have won if military skill were the only thing that mattered in this game. But it's not. PA is not just a war game. Political abilities, military might and activity all play their part, in roughly descending order of importance.
(I don't like the word "should", if that isn't obvious by now. Things are what they are. "Should" is useless.)

And again. CT is as mediocre militarily as Ultores is politically. But CT won 2 of the last 4 rounds (same as Apprime), so apparently they're doing
something right.
(Unrelatedly, Apprime is the alliance that won the most rounds in PA history: 7, with Ascendancy and Ultores tied at 6 each. Kudos for that. No sarcasm intended.)

And yet another time. "Alliances that are good at the things we're good at are awesome, alliances who are good at things we're bad at suck". Give it a rest.
