I felt it wasn't right for me to sit in #comebackstrong while Ascendancy and Ultores were at war, so I don't know for certain what the mood was at the time, so what follows is speculation. At the time, I got the impression that your decision to largely refrain from defense was a large factor in causing the crashing. In conversations about PA politics, I often mentioned the word 'collapse' in relation to Ultores. It's hard for people to stay motivated if they lose roids every night, and harder if that roid loss is mostly uncontested. If that is correct, then that is something you could/should have foreseen.

Nah. All credit to Ultores for lasting for 700 ticks, but their ending rank is grossly distorted by the fact that ally win was already in the bag for BF. They did well in the last week exactly
because they were no longer a threat to anyone in any way that mattered to them. Ultores' roid gain in the last week was ignored by the other alliances because BF, CT, Faceless and Ascendancy were contesting for planet win, while RainbowS, Newdawn and ODDR were at war. They could've gotten to 100k roids and no one would have cared.
