Had more frigs, but got whittled down in recent attacks on my planet.

Landed in a random galaxy, and stuck with it. We were consistently a top roiding galaxy, and did quite well until a few weeks ago when we were waved into the dirt. Most everyone gave up after that.

Not a bad round to start out for me...had largely successful attacks, only losing when the alarm didn't wake me up and I crashed a fleet like:

this

and again

once more

owie

double owie

Played "full out" (within reason) for 1up, and ended the 12th ranked defender with 101 defense points. Was a (mostly) enjoyable experience, aside from the times (note the graph) my high (top3 most of the round) defense priority didn't pay off for one reason or another.

I was not at all impressed with the stats this round, specifically Xan armor/damage ratio, and especially the Rogue (targetting/initiative). The armor issue made subversion *that* much more efficient, and with the large number of Ziks around, a real pain the ass.

Overall the round itself was interesting, though I generally played quite poorly.

I started out as a planet specialised in killing other people's structures. I expected to get completely killed for that, but aparantly I was not annoying enough. I did normal attacks as well, trying to keep a normal roid ratio (to build galleons) and when having enough time do a structure kill attack.
Midgame I left Vengeance and found a new home in Rock. In Rock I only did structure kill attacks as retal and got more into roiding. This helped me climb ranks from ~1000 to ~500. And I got to be the biggest of my galaxy. Not a bad round after all.

Re: Who were we?

Synthetic Sid of The Fury

no idea what my ending coords was, I was 25:1:2 for the part I cared. Exiled part of my gal at tick 1400 orso when we had set into a rotuine of logging in fortnightly for the **** of it :/

I was a Co-Zik who roided xands until tick 250 then Co-Fr & upgraded to roid xands/ziks/terrans, kept me a top3 roidrank, top5 score/value for a while until the eventual non-stop incoming because of a] my ruler/planet name choice b] my high-ranking 1up planet heh. Since I wasn't playing actively in the first place, just didn't bother to report my inc & switched to De/Bs as my roidfleet to be a xpwhore for a while, etc. Defended primarily with cutters/maurauders.

cute how I didn't play with any care other than whine about my incoming (though not actually report it) post-tick500 onwards and still finished higher than cochese so hahahahahaha,if you had an e-penis, i hope it shrunk a tad there! but unfortunately you don't so you just suck.

I used CO only the first half of round, until I roided a guy that I could have capped 900 roids from and only capped 200, so I started with BS. I co/fr attacked only 4 times, and 2 of which happened in the last day. CO/FR was to easy to defend I beleive. I must say that my fear of BS being to slow was totally inappropriate, as it was very easy to get through. I defended with everything besides BS/DE mainly. I ended with the most BS this round. Ziks main weakness was BS, hence the 10700 maur, which subbed pretty much any solo attacker, and a highlight being this attack: http://jpaweb01.planetarion.com/show_news.pl?id=22348 where I managed to sub 5 attackers who were up for a 2700 roid split. If i could do it over again, I would have went Cath. But Zik was a great race this round. As always.

I was top 100 towards the beginning of the round untill i was fully owned around tick 200, where my round effectively re-started.



I had a large CO fleet at the beginning, before my Vsh killed them all due to a friendly Zik. After the second time this happened, I didn’t build any more vsh until I spammed some right before the round ended .



I was a Visionary again this round, and was fairly active. Until the last week when my internet went down, I was the 5th defender in Vision with some 245 points, but like last in attacking with 3 points .



My FR were really good, especially TBT, though it is fair to say that Ziks could walk all over xans whenever they wished. Grr @ the people who made the stats – next time ACCEPT mine :P

Anyway, I had the most fun since R9.5 this round – even if the ziks were all powerful .



Enjoy your Christmas everyone

my R12 graph

-played rounds 2-5, mostly unofficially although claiming, joined in with a lot of Legion-organized attacks, and somewhere in the middle of round 5 i kinda stopped - then now this past round, R12, picked cathaar because it seemed like Cath's were the smarter race compared to Zik's, Xan's and Terran

-not a very successful planet so i should state the things i messed up on - didn't build enough Cruisers even with the full awareness that by looking at the stats at the beginning of the round, Cath Cr's will own any Xan or Zik fleet - built a lot of Fighters, Corvettes and Frigates mainly because they were cheap, only to find out that after every Terran incoming, realized that the resources i spent on those ships were a waste - when i built a formidable amount of Cr's, i enjoyed attacking a fairly decent amount of Xan targets (not much of Zik's - i attacked more Cath's than Zik's and probably attacked 2 Terran planets this whole round)

-joined Veneratio before ticks started and will stay with them next round and will remain a loyal Cathaar - thanks to my alliance, around 98% of my inc's were covered, 2% wasn't because of society's demands, including the last 24 ticks when i lost 5K ships and about 200 roids - i find it comforting to know that we got past Rock on the last 2 ticks of the round after weeks of little skirmishes here and there and interesting in-alliance evolutions one night on the round's last week and we collected about 800 roids plus other operations organized by our outstanding military officers..

-all in all it was a good round and i'm looking forward to seeing all you guys again *eyes and ears open* for R13 political drama's that keep this game interesting... CHEERS!

Our gal started with 5 private players (2 ND, 2 HR, 1 VGN), and untill tick 300 it stayed that way. We were about the last gal to get randoms, which kept us out of the top100 for a long time. After we got some (and exiled some, and got some new, etc) we had 3 relative active randoms, we never got actives for planet #7 and #8. Even with only 8 real planets, we started growing very nicely. We grew from rank 110 to rank 50 in a few days, and in the 2 weeks after that we got up to top10. Out gal fortunately survived the first ND-HR war, the neutrals in our gal covered the one time we got incomings due that war.

But around tick 900/1000 we got WTFPND by LCH, they waved our gal quite thoroughly, capping 13k roids in 3 days or so, throwing us out of the top10. After that we got regular LCH incs (even though we had 2 HR planets, ppl claiming we were allied/napped should have seen my battlereports ).

Roidloss isn't that bad ofc, problem was I was away that paticular weekend, causing me to loose my fi/co/de and 60% of my roids, which kinda hurt. The gal stayed relatively active (except by HR galmate #3 grrrrr), but we never found our roiding spirit back

I must admit I wasn't very active this round, I had some rl issues, and in december I had to work a lot of long hours without inet access, causing me to loose all my frigs, and later on once agian my co/de. Too bad you can't prelaunch+12 returning ships

In short i was only a mediocre HR planet

Re: Who were we?

The less said the better, I didn't build a single pod or launch an attack all round, still finished just outside top1000 (heh) and 2nd in gal by about 20k score. So a very mediocre round.

Re: Who were we?

i don't post much on these boards, but i'll write some stuff about my planet mostly cuz i'm bored atm.

this is only of temporary (34:7:5) (Ter)

The planetname was actually meant to be a temporary one, but I forgot about it and before I knew it the ticks had started =\
I was gonna go random this round but since pa team didn't say anything about a shuffle, and I was at the time in a very crappy gal, I was forced to join a private pack. I don't regret that now, but i remember being quite annoyed by pa-team from the lack of information.

Anyways..we started off as a 5 man gal and thus for some reason attracted ALOT of incomings the first month or longer. Between tick 99 and 678 I was attacked 47 times, my alliance WP fended them off nicely

After that we got active people like Eol and zmeu to our gal. And a very active guy called Teko. So the incomings decreased severly We climbed the ranks and ended up as rank 3

the most memorable attacks for me this round was first when Livewire (aka Theprophet) roided me in tick 1359. Luckily for me I got roids back the next attack from some other planets (see the little lump there at around 6k roids).
the 2nd big attack for me was the 2nd to last tick of the round where I roided the same planet which I just mentioned, 34 3 4. I broke the NAP with ND tbh, but as it was the last day I thought wtf, I wanted my roids back. I was hoping for a top 10 spot but for some reason I didn't get the score I thought I would get. actually I got only 60k score from this attack....I shared with king and rabba, but I got 800 roids from a planet about 2/3 of my value. I don't know how the xp score is calced, but I'd imagine I would come better out of it (I didn't lose many ships either).

Oh well, it was a decent round and I had fun with my romanian galmates

Re: Who were we?

Me.

Ended up ranked 90 because I went away for the last few days and got my CO/DE owned by a recall/resending Zik CO with hostile def. Oh, and I didn't get on in time to spend, but spent anyway, then had to cancel when I realized my mistake. My fleet when I left was about:

Vsharrak Fighter 30000 Daeraith Pulsar 54000
Lyvidian Sentinel 10000 Culdassa Arrowhead 6750
Andvordian Bomber 12000 Tzen Bolt Thrower 10500
Hysperian Lancer 562 Dagger 10000
Sabre 8000 Voracean 1000

I suicided almost my entire fleet three times within the ~200 ticks. I also caused one of Cochese' crashes during my first week or so in 1up

Most of my roids came off top10 planets though, which was cool. I roided with FI early on, until I moved to teaming up with Zik CO/FR and sending FR. I think I had the second largest Xan FR fleet in the universe when I left (Kileman had the largest).

Re: Who were we?

Gates of Nevermore (8:9:3)
Size: 1,801 (GAINED 4491, LOST 2690)
Value: 4,037,974
Score: 6,325,954
XP: 38,133

My final fleet was something along the lines of:
Daeraith Pulsar 52500 Lyvidian Sentinel 12500
Culdassa Arrowhead 7500 Andvordian Bomber 3750
Tzen Bolt Thrower 3750 Hysperian Lancer 2500
Cryveli Broadsword 1500 Dagger 12500
Sabre 5000

Had a very fun round, and ended second highest defender in ND (With something like 155-160 def points), and towards the end my gal got quite respectable too. Though it started off not-too-well. Ended in a buddypack with 4 NoS who all quit or went idle due to various reasons (Internet loss, medical, idleness and being a professional skiier), and didn't get that lucky with randoms, except for a single one (HI V1PER ) who was an allianceless terran, and who kindly built stupid amounts of hydras to defend me vs. CR. Despite this, attacks kept getting through, and eventually I took over as GC, booting the 4 buddypackers and other 4 randoms. Over 30 exiles later, my gal was finally a bit better, and we ended up rakn 105; a gain of 106 ranks Didn't get such a good start either, with a couple of nasty fleetcatches, including
this one
The next one yielded heavy losses too... (visible in my history)
Plus the sentinels I'd sent out in another deffleet. Not to mention, that put me back a bit.

My highest points were DCing this, And though I lost roids here, my retal got them back here.

Finally, some guy's CO kept annoying me, so I did this to him. Unfortunately, this didn't work on evil_n00b and though it saved 700 roids as he had to recall, we didn't catch his fleet


Anyway, overall, was a damn fun rd, thanks mainly to ND

Re: Who were we?

Hmm, let me see:

26:4:2 were my coords for this rd.

"Gina Dreams" of "Six String in Hock"

I was terran, and ended about #400~

I had a crap start and was constantly wavering in the mid 400's until bout tick 500~, cba to look at pilkara tbh, where i jumped into top50 in 3 days and capped a fair few roids, i had 50k~ XP score and was top10 with that for the time i played, my highest was about 2.9k roids and 5.6mill score, around top40 at that time, i then moved from Mistu to Angels and got wtfpwned by some xans as i couldnt get def from ally and my gal had given up ages before, went down to 100~ roids and 4.5mill score or thereabouts, from then on i just deffed for Angels when i was online, though i had literally stopped playing at that point.

http://www.sandmans.co.uk/?p=viewplanet&x=22&y=3&z=3

Initially I choose Zik but we had too many in galaxy so volunteered to change to Xan, bad choice. My galaxy started very slow because we were caught off guard with the 5 private members and had only arranged 3. We filled both spots but one defected almost immediately leaving us unable to get another 5th. The shuffle left us with 2 inactives and 4 holes. We kicked the inactives and gradually got new players, giving them time to see what they would do. We must have exiled 30-35 planets to finally acheive 9 fairly actives around tick 800 or so, never got a 10th that was active.

I used FI and Sents to hit Terrans mostly. FR to hit Ziks when they didnt have enough Clipps to completely sub me or enough Corsairs to do too much damage. Could find the occasional Cath without enough Anti FI and got through on them. Also did some multi race combo attacks that helped land easier as well.

Did fairly well till last couple weeks of the round when we were waved by 1up and a couple times by ND with 1up providing Red Defense, ending any shot at top 100. I knew it was coming though, I had sent too many fleets at at both alliances to expect otherwise.

All in all a fun round, but didn't finish as well as I expected.

I died so horribly landing, but the roids were worth it for the galaxy in the long run. And very worthwhile for Mr. Lokken landing with me

The kicker is that I ingame messaged lok with the JGP and said that I was up for landing, but really I expected him to freak out and come on IRC and convince me not to :\

Oh yeah, and I changed from Zik to Xan for the exact same reason as you.

Re: Who were we?

OMG!! That was tick 206 - I can't beleive you remembered that landing from my details - lol - better memory than mine.

And it appears you did better than I did as a Xan - just found it increasingly expensive to land late in the round.

haha yeh i was a t10 xan at 1 point maybe tick 500 or so, but it was funny midway thru the rnd roiding zik planets with 4k daggers, cos they thought u sent frigs n lancers oh well kinda got old towards the end and ppl knew the tricks of the trade.

This was the first full round I played, so I have to be happy with the result. I played the latter half of R11 and almost full R6 but back then I played very inactively.

Quote:
Our gal started with 5 private players (2 ND, 2 HR, 1 VGN), and untill tick 300 it stayed that way. We were about the last gal to get randoms, which kept us out of the top100 for a long time. After we got some (and exiled some, and got some new, etc) we had 3 relative active randoms, we never got actives for planet #7 and #8. Even with only 8 real planets, we started growing very nicely. We grew from rank 110 to rank 50 in a few days, and in the 2 weeks after that we got up to top10. Out gal fortunately survived the first ND-HR war, the neutrals in our gal covered the one time we got incomings due that war.

But around tick 900/1000 we got WTFPND by LCH, they waved our gal quite thoroughly, capping 13k roids in 3 days or so, throwing us out of the top10. After that we got regular LCH incs (even though we had 2 HR planets, ppl claiming we were allied/napped should have seen my battlereports ).
This can also be seen in my score and roid history: http://www.pilkara.com/rank.php?acti...k&x=22&y=9&z=1
As our galaxy fell out of top 10, my personal ranking went down from top 15 to top 50. Around tick 1200-1300 I got fleet caught by LCH but happened to jumpgate scan myself and noticed the attempt so ND managed to send some extra def before it ticked. LCH didn't pull the catch and the battle resulted in heavier losses for them. Too bad I don't have the battle report. (I think Gate posted the report on another thread during the round though.) Finally when I made a noobish mistake pulling a fleet to get home same tick as a terran attacker, losing way too many ships, I got inactive and ended up in a rank below top 100.

Overall, not bad. Some activity in our gal would have been nice

Re: Who were we?

I returned to Planetarion for Round 12, starting my planet in tick 331

You are: 29:9:9 (Furry Beast of the Nether Regions) - Zik
Size: 756
Value: 1,441,212
Score: 2,226,432
XP: 13,087

Final rank: 839

Fleet (as I remember it):
3000 Corsairs
3000 Cutlasses
700 Thieves
550 Cutters
500 Buccaneers
1000 Clippers (possibly...really can't remember )
700 Marauders
100 Rogues
700 Pirates
950 Privateers
100 Raiders
50 Galleons

I overslept far too many times in this round to be especially proud of my planet, but it was my alliance who mattered far more to me. Returning mid-way in a round, few alliances were prepared to take me in despite my history. Sadly most of my old alliances have shut down.

Vengeance/VGN was the exception. Getting a vouch from a gal member (thanks Slash!), I got accepted fairly easily after an excellent interview and made myself noticed pretty quickly.

My promotion to DC is probably the thing I'm proudest of, I'd never been in an alliance long enough before to get this high up (my presence seemed to curse them - MadCows r9, ViruS r10 - both alliances ended at the end of that round). I hope I've at least partly repaid this trust already.

Bring on Round 13

Great! That means Vgn wont be around much longer to be confused with the far superior VsN . further, Vgn wont be around to keep attacking their 'allies' so we have to keep defending against them.

Vgn lemmings are just too stupid to check their arbitor it seems (about a third of all the incoming i organised def for VsN this round came from Vgn planets - our supposed NAP/ally thing. heh )

:\

Good luck furball - make sure your members actually SEND their CORRECT fleets though mate

hehe

no-one wants a flame war.....lol.


Interestingly, I'm not a BC. Although this is probably a good thing, don't blame me! Hopefully this won't be a problem next round (since we'll ally some decent alliances )

You hurt my feelings suggesting that my excellent DCing will destroy VGN...do it again and I'll challenge you to a duel.



(hmmm, plane ticket to Oz costs too much...lemming runs on each other?)
