AD is dead
I came to that conclusion. In the glory days of AD, any newb could get a grasp of what's going on in the universe just by reading AD. Nowadays, not even rumours are spread. Informed people never post, there's nothing interesting to read.
Give me something worth reading FFS.

Re: AD is dead
Now days, most fun 'rumours' get deleted as trolling
Which they probably are....
But they always were.

It's early on in the round, people are just raiding nice looking for nice targets in the main (although i believe there have been some skirmishes) so there's very little need for propaganda at this time.
No doubt someone will soon start a new thread saying who's going to win and why we should target their enemy. On top of that, I anticipate at the end of the round there's going to be a thread from 1up or their opposition lauding it up over the other, and it's going to be great to watch.
But to give you the early upshot: a large number of people hate 1up, and probably will be targetting them rather heavily in the near future. I'll wager that if there's anyone smart in that grouping, they've got an excellent chance of winning.
I'll probably get blamed for my moderation of this forum, but in reality all I do is delete insults/spam which have very little relevance to PA, or ban people who want to argue in a way where anyone who disagrees with them is a troll, because it's plain shit.

Re: AD is dead
Its probally not helped either by the lack of alliances in the game now and the attitude of the forum users. If you look at the rankings theres only 21 alliances with 20 members + and 3 with 10-20. The depth isng that great and it often means that most of the alliances are actually involved in the same conflicts which makes the discussion points limited.
And then these forums (and this one in particular) have always been a little 'closed' to new people especially those who, the regulars consider to be in an insignificant alliance . This again reduces the available discussion point

The past is history
The future is a mystery

Re: AD is dead
Would we really rather have the rabit idiot speculation back?
Just think...
Exilition are winning, but they're all LDK bot-using scum! No, 1up are winning even though they have less roids! WP might actually be good this round! Angels will ally with LCH and ToT and Vision to kill everyone!
And so on and so on.

If it made the forum more useful yes, as it is this forum and its bastard love child that users here got created, PD are pretty much a waste of space. Theres just not enough posts to really make either justified. You ahve to think it would probally be alot better just to merge them

We get this thread every now and then. And yet AD outlasts them every time.
Please go away and never come back.

Re: AD is dead
Angels will ally with LCH, ToT and Vision to do not a lot.
I mean come on, vision haven't been a contenting force for an age and a half, ToT are re finding their legs, and LCH are known for looking good, but lacking substance.
On the other hand, you have solid alliances with proven records, like 1up or ND, albeit hampered by zhil shenanigens.
I'd side with consistency to rule the day, with the round looking like a constant struggle until about 60-70% done, when 1up will press home their superior skill when the others tire.
Stamina will play a big part with 1up able to cycle in new MOs (apart from Storebo) as MOs get disinterested, or burn out from long hours. ToT and Ex I doubt have that player depth, dedication or experience of what the recent rounds have required in order to go the distance.
What will decide the round will probably be cany choices by the second echelon alliances. Who gets Vengance to tie up defence on smaller galaxies? In the Angels boning, an important liberation to provide more focused damage came from having smaller alliances able to provide a number of waves on secondary targets, and divide the defence.
The winner will be the alliance that is most capable of getting supporting alliances, and consistently perform as the round goes on. In essence, the one with the most discipline. I leave you to decide which you think that is.

Well, at least now there's something interesting happening now. Planetarion is not complete without alliance rumours and flaming, and the interesting truth hidden between the mostly unuseful, though funny to read posts. You will all agree with me that AD has gotten a bit interesting over last week. That's what i meant, go and post, flame, etc. Make AD alive, it's fun when hell breaks loose
