They May have Napped us at our dizzying heights this round but they napped us at our lowest point last round.

That's exactly what I was trying to say.

That link you posted didn't show that very well however, as it only states current situation. While if we look at when ROCK napped Asc there were no red numbers for any of them, and it was looking like a very clear dominance.

I for one don't care how consistently alliances nap/join each other.
Every round is a new one, with new opportunities.
I would NAP anyone I'd feel like, and not care about past records.

Not really a troll, just someone who finally bothered to make an account to reply on these forums. After reading so much miss-information about ROCK and being HC of the alliance, I couldnt hold back any further. However, I think its very kind of you to treat new members of the forums like this. It makes one wonder how welcome new players in the game ( which Im not, so Ill survive ) feel, when joining this game. On the forums they get a ''warm'' welcome, most galaxies kick them straight away and alliances wont harbor them. How are we going to make it so, that this game grows again?

More on the subject, since I saw in Mz's his quote what the real post consisted off.

Who are you to judge what ROCK politics should look like? We did not once claim we are choosing the underdog position this round, eventhough, in the end, we did do that. I value long term relationships over the twisting and turning politics everyone else seems to favor. So be it, thats your choice, you dont see me complaining here about that. What ROCK does, should be ROCK business. Period.
And ofcourse it was sarcasm. If you look @ the sheer numbers only, you are correct. We are the third alliance being close to 90 members. But if you think that is all what counts, you are wrong. The quality in ROCK differs quite a bit and all you people know it. I dont know why you even bring these kind of things up. To me it seems like you are looking for excuses to hit Asc with so many alliances/bgs, when really you shouldnt have to.

And to reply to Venox. Asc not being able to find other friendly alliances says more about the community then it does about ROCK.

this is why asc will never come close to being eXi good, otherwise they would have taken on the world rather then claiming it was all against them and trying to buddy up

eXi played a round then didnt then played etc; Asc is in one of those resting rounds where eXi would not have even tried.
