Exciting end to round??
Although i posted i wished the round to end early i think i may have spoken too soon.
Although the top 3 will finish where they are its looks like for us normal players there is excitement elsewhere!
4th and 5th CT/ND is tight
wide open for 6th, 7th and 8th between ODDR, HeX and HR
9th and 10th between Horde and DLR
and a threewway battle for 11th between GROSS, ROCK and Fudd
So whilst yet again the 'elite' pa players have napped, farming and salvage donated there way into another boring round its look like the rest of us are having a real good time!!!

Re: Exciting end to round??
Always the same old thing. The lower ranking alliances refusing to make the round interesting for the rest of us.

Re: Exciting end to round??
My favourite round of pa was round 22. The top ten alliances finished with a maximum of a 30% difference scorewise and 10% roidwise, the planet and alliance winners were only determined in the last few days and the alliances expected to win finished nowhere.
Oh yeah and the quality of pa played was so low I could have cried.

How are they refusing to make it intresting for you??
Your the ones who nap yourselves into corners and then find the game boring. Were all having loads of fun below you (well maybe HR isnt atm :P) maybe if some of the bigger guys took the smaller alliances a bit more seriously instead of acting aloof towards them then we'd all have more fun

Just because you can put a retard in a room, give him a ball and watch him enjoy the next two years of his life doesn't mean we should all give ourselves full frontal lobotomies.

Strange thing is, if anyone of those alliances actually wanted to win there battle. All they'd have to do is add an allianceless player and they've won. I mean, at the moment.. i'd add 3mil score to any tag with less than 60 members.
Shame im going to be attacking soon and might lose some of my value

Re: Exciting end to round??
App could always kick a member and have them "accidentally" crash 4m value into Henrik the very same day. That would close the gap and keep the fight for #1 more exciting right?
Salvage donations are way more exciting than attacking your competition after all.

Re: Exciting end to round??
I suspect that having not closed timp and HaSu the MH will not close Dim and Henrik, or even remove the salvage.
Its totally ridiculous that they get their knickers in a twist with a double entendre in a fleet name, but if its something that actually affects the outcome of the game nothing happens.
It may not be exciting but its certainly inciting my ire.

I'll double your entendre.

But he attacked a different planet than henrik. That means it's not salvage farming!

Surprising coincidence he doubled up his dealer count, too. Guess he was just reaaaally lucky.

Re: Exciting end to round??
I'm betting HaSu will have some luck coming his way as he has increased his dealer count too must be a connection between the ship and general fortune
Think we need to start taking bets on what tick a crash will occur in HaSu's gal will take place with HaSu defending. To make it a little more challenging we could also guess who the crasher will be

think zik CO would be better imo, would give just the right value gain through salvage to jump Henrik

So did App whine enough to have ships removed from HaSu and make this round end the farce everyone expected it to be?

I like how despite having an entire round to attack HaSu, they chose to blame the MHs rather than themselves.

Re: Exciting end to round??
We all saw last round what happens around the community when an alliance breaks a nap. It's probably just not worth it to Apprime, an alliance that actually has something to preserve for future rounds, to get the kind of awful reputation [NFI] got for doing something political in an attempt at winning the planet/gal/alliance #1 spot. Obviously Apprime firmly held the galaxy and alliance #1 but would have had to risk getting trolled by the lowlifes on here had they actually made a political move.

Re: Exciting end to round??
considering henrik is allianceless , apprime could only manage 3rd in planet rankings

You know.... certain people in Apprime did break the nap at some point and plotted an attack on HaSu in true backstab style. Some certain leader of Apprime stopped them. I was pretty surprised he did, but it definitly raised my oppinion of him

As emotional as people can get over "backstabbing" it's worth pointing out that it's exceedingly rare that there's a genuinely interesting round without it. In fact, I can't really think of anything at all.

Re: Exciting end to round??
Oh, I didn't judge about backstabbing, I just wanted to point out some people in Apprime actually tried it.
Well, maybe not 100% true backstabbing as they broke the ingame NAP some time before they planned to launch iirc.
