New Tactic....again?
No one dares to say it but a few days ago LCH almost got the best of 1up score wise…
Then suddenly 1up began to recruit new players and suddenly the gap between the 2 rize again…
Sure 1up had less members then LCH so It’s hard to argue it’s infair….. but I’m still amazed how the mighty Sid could lower himself to recruit himself out of trouble?

Re: New Tactic....again?
1up and LCH both have 2 more members now than what they had about 2 weeks ago...
And with the WP disband, there should be some new members in all branches of the alliancerankings, as WP had a spread quality.

Regardless of what the rankings currently look like I still disagree with you entirely.
The game allows you to recruit up to 100 planets. This in my mind is not too many. The tactic of recruiting as close to that figure as possible is a perfectly valid one in my opinion and no alliance should be derided for following this tactic.
Look at F-Crew for example. Their recruitment whoring tactics have gained them a position in the top 10, a position that I think they wholeheartedly deserve. They should be rewarded for recruiting as many people as they possibly can.
If you disagree with me on this I'd be interested to hear why.

Re: New Tactic....again?
ehh... I think WP retired.. May have somthing to do with that? People are switching alliances alot this round. I dont see a problem with 1up or any other alliance doing that.

First, we all have access to Sandmans – so no secrets there
Second, 1up didn’t get 10 score advantage again by gaining roids/score from enemies
Third, rest my case…
Btw, I’m not leaving my alliance because they might get into trouble/difficulties – did you?

So, the main issue here is that 1up should have rejected applicants for being 'too good at the game', regardless of whether they had friends in 1up or not?

Nope, I’ve been around since the age of dawn and never seen Fury ops sr 1up been this keen on recruiting new players into their ranks……but all of a sudden they gain score by recruiting new members and as a side not they can keep/expand their distance to the 2 alli…..
I’m not saying its wrong only as the thread name says “New Tactic....again?”

Yeah, capping more roids than another alliance tends to do that.

No, it's quite easy. Just buy a scalpel and cut out a few vital portions of your brain, then make your way to AD (it might be wise to bookmark the forums site first, in case you cut out the part of your brain that remembers the URL).

I'm sure Sid is grateful for your concern and will take steps to make sure he meets your high standards in future.

Well lokken you have set the standard to this thread then….. (aka brain talk that is)
ComradeRob; you are really not trustworthy since you’re a 1up mupp - saying what you are ordered/brainwashed to do….
I’m amazed every time the 1up squad trys to fool the community by denying/excusing etc their actions..
It might have worked ones or twice but every time you try nowadays it’s only falls back on your self’s…cos the community has learned thrue the years….

In a desparate attempt to revive any kind of meaningful discussion out of this thread I challenge you to explain why 1up trying to recruit up to 100 members is in any way wrong. If you cannot your point is totally invalid.

Re: New Tactic....again?
Moto you are a bloody idiot mate just gonna be blunt about it why turn away decent players only for them to join the enermy because that is all that would of happened?
Have you ever posted anything good about 1up?
why all the hate did they roid you or something?....
Or maybe you tried to join & got turnt down but what ever your reason for hating 1up?
Anyway I hope its a good enough reason to make a fool out of yourself because i'm afraid that is all you have ever done with your posts.
I'm actually surpised you ain't got any more red dots actually but yeah lovely thread thanks for sharing your wisedom with us.
Such an inteligence person you should try & take over the world I'm sure it would be a better place under your control.
I feel so blessed now & thanks for sharing the whole 1up tactic I adore you now.
Thanks,
Vir
PS:
Why don't you go stick your propogranda up your japs eye I'm sure you would enjoy that.

Actually it would be quite stupid not to recruit a good player if they wanted to join your alliance. Do you think that another alliance would have passed on a a solid recruit? I think not.
Seems like you think 1up should be held to a different standard then the rest of the universe, which is just plain silly.

weee, finally a valid point/post to a useless thread, I guess you’re right but if you remember the past - Fury...dam sr 1up have never recruited members because they always had their policy!?
Suddenly it seems they are a bit afraid they gone lose so they starts to recruit “big” scored players to keep their distance to numbers 2….
That’s a big leap compare to earlier year’s policies, right?
And if they win they can still claim that they didn’t block…..
(And yes I’m still gone answer some of the more hilarious posts that some 1up morons have been posted here, not now tho cos I’m tired)

So, round 12 1up never recruited high score people and kicked lower score ones?
I just find it strange you know the inner workings of the minds of 1up's recruitment team. If an alliance containing some quality players collapsed, and then some of these quality players applied to you, do they think 'these are good players, we'll have them!', or do they think 'omg noes we might not be winning, we'd normally reject quality players like this so as to give LCH a better chance tho ;(;.
I'm really struggling to grasp the concept, it's not like 1up recruitment team made WP collapse in order to grab a handful of high scoring planets, or then made those planets apply. Suddenly, good, now allianceless players of high quality not being rejected by 1up is desperation?
Can you say this back to yourself a few times, and try to find a way for it to make more sense please?

Sid lowered himself to recruiting players? lol.
Any alliance can recruit, replace, kick members as they see fit. They probably replaced some members with better ones, and also had a good roiding day. And if you had looked better, then you would have seen that NewDawn shot up 12 members in one day. Even if you had a ground of complaint (which you dont have), you should have aimed at them , not 1up.
Motox, []LCH[] doesnt complain, so why should you?

Re: New Tactic....again?
Rob, behe, Remy and Gate: please look away from this thread, this doesn't apply to you.
This thread is ****ing shit lads. It's a ****ing disgrace, that's what it is. Seriously, if you are that upset about the cockrot setting in, seek medical treatment. If you mince around like this on AD again, I won't be happy.
