YOUR darkest hour

What is your darkest PA moment?
The end of an alliance?
Your planet being crushed?
Other attackers recalling at the last moment without telling you?

Mine would have to be the day Blackice broke up, after returning from holiday i found about 20 'core' members of our team gone. I was one of only 3?? command staff left, after several convesations with the one remaining HC (obliterate) we decided (excuse the cliche) Its better to burn out, then to fade away.

I had the priveledge of announcing the disbanding of the alliance on the public forum, writing the thread made me feel very sad, but also reflected on the great times i had, and that the community would still live on.


so what would be your darkest hour?

R3, our gal going from being a top10 gal to outside top100 in the space of about a week, courtesy of Section.

Then finding out Section has been deleted for cheating about a week after that :/

In round 5, the biggest decision that i regret to day in Planetarion, Disbanding NFU.

What made it 10x worse was at the time it felt right and on top of that everyone slanderd me a coward and bad leader.

Looking back, perhaps i was, but nothing could help the fact it was not a nice few weeks.

I remember saying at some point during Round 5 "I can't imagine Planetarion without NFU" and i've never truly had much fun since then in this game.

darkest moment eh, i have not really had very many darkest
moments, my planetarion has been total light (well alright ill
find few exceptions)

As for alliances..
the announcement of BlueTuba's retirement.
the silent announcement of Fury's retirement.

As for galaxy...
the SMS message back in the very end hours of round 6,
i was sitting at school bench, the last minutes of
the day were ticking, then i got a little message:

"Eldan, we have a 'little' situation here, id suggest you
get yourself online ASAP - you gotta see it yourself..."

and not long after i found a terminal to see the masses XeTa
hordes sent at us for the ending clash of round 6. Great
jubilation and happiness, i knew they would come after the
toying the night before but seeing the amount of ships they
got on move against our beautiful and flawless Shores of Esthar
was probably my darkest hour so far


(the darkest hour and the greatest hour at the same time,
go figure em i strange or what )

My darkest PA moment? I suppose the Round 6 bashing my gal got for being one of the few cluster alliances that 0wned the Xeta/FoS bit so we got attacked by 2-3 gals per night.

But I made top 200 that round anyway so it was only a momentarily dark hour thingy

That must be round 3 when my is was in RB galaxy fury/legion broke the NAP, and the fact that my top100 GC got deleted because he was account sharing, 24/7 inc \o/.

Or perhaps round 5 when I was in Xan hc galaxy ( thanx SILVERSMOKE :P ). We had like almost no allies in cluster and every1 was against us in cluster.

From round 8: Waking up in the middle of the night and realising I'd overslept the recall of fighter fleets from Eternal Flame.

My planet dropped from 13th to 136th in 2 ticks.

choice of two for me
i) round 2. Had an alliance. by horrible coincidence all of the HC went on holiday at the same time; we left people in charge only to find out when we got back that they'd gone and merged the alliance with Xanadu (the original Xanadu) only it wasn't really a merger... just that nearly every single member jumped ship!

ii) round 3; certain forum member named Eddie (who some of you may know) got me to join in with a LOST2k attack on some planet... only for everyone else to recall and not tell me. All that survived was 123 Ghosts... which had been in production anyway.

Sounds like my R4, R5 and R6. Only without the friendly galaxy.

Edit: Apart from R5. We had one friendly galaxy there.

worst moment that any of you will know think of as a "moment" in pa, would be necro folding NFU, although the complete lack of effort of many Silver HC when Silver was going down the drain was quite dismaying too.

long live teh scary unic0rns.

Probably last round. i was around 230th, 5.5m, teh leader had around 11m iirc. I logged in in the morning, sent def, saw it was covered easily, went to a Uni open day, came back and saw my planet was around 2m points and 200 roids lower I had been countered to make me recall, 17k arrowheads came at my fleet at home, which had 0 anti-fi/co in there. I stopped playing so seriously after that, very demoralising that no-one in my quality gal saw the 1155 incs.

Mine would have to be the moment in Round 6 when I realized -
I was GC of a ViruS gal in a cluster of 3 ViruS and about 12 FoS/XeTa gals (cluster 7, didn't become ViruS myself til halfway thru)
And that the GC of the bigger ViruS gal in the cluster and I simply could not work together, as the personalities of our respective gals were too different . (we played for fun, they played solely for rank)


It was first and only time I had to face the fact that I had no allies in my cluster, and many enemies.

When I first started, in round 3, and had just gotten a "decent" and well balanced fleet, after meticulously keeping my roid:score ratio at 1:20k.

I woke up to some 35k warfrigates from a 200 million point planet in a Legion glaxy down in c30+/-, who had come all the way up to c143 just to pay me a visit.

8 mil to 1 mil, in the blink of an eye. Luckily for him, I had an alliance and was already addicted to Planetarion...else I might well not be here today.

You could always tell the nfu members in NoCeX gals, the defence bot became quite familiar to their co-ords as well

Was fun though, we kept a lot of you coverd for a good time as well

My darkest hour were in round 4. I were the mod, and there were another norwegian that me and the gc made a deal with. The deal were that we would make the next one who attacked in-gal suffer, since he and some ppl from england were making some problems in gal. Stupid smock, he attacked first so we had to attack him. Not that i regret so much about that decision, but the worst part were that we were starting to be friends. He were a addicted Rainbow Six player and we were planning on trying a few games together, and maybe i could try a few games with his clan.

When we had to crush him i felt bad, even though we had nothing else to do. I'm still not sure if i made the right decision. To be honest, i think thoose englishmens(not from Liverpool ofcause) deserved some beating.

One of my planets in r4 was in a pretty good gal. 181:19 was the coords. Around 100 mil a while into the round, and then, one day, I woke up, and I was alone. It turns out that the GC was controlling all of the other accounts, and he got caught.

Actually that was pretty funny. I chuckle at it.

My darkest hour was without a doubt when I was on top of my game alliancewise (by then I was hopelessly rusty at actually playing the game). As chief BC and Senior Officer for Deus I spent 12-16 hours a day (sometimes more) fighting a winning war without actually seeing the fruits of it (we were easily taking far more roids than we lost nightly, but FLTV was regaining from Xeta). At worst I was cheering for Killmark's 500 bots to smash 33:13, the farming bastards, to bits and pieces. I never even saw the full victory over FLTV, because I found that I was utterly failing one of my classes and needed to slow down (so naturally I quit, realizing 2 weeks later that I had absolutely nothing else to do but hang out on IRC). For added irony, I failed the course anyway.

my worst moment was in r8.

I was in 55:5, c55 was the last cluster with full gals from the start, strange enough nobody cared and we got incoming like hell. My gal had 5 decent players, but we couldnt grow :/ I was MoC and decided to selfexile.

I landed in c61 and after 3 days there I had dropped from almost a million to 130k ((, and I left a gal with some of the coolest people I ever met for that.

coming home from work 1 day in Rd3 to find that 9 mil score had been killed in 1 tick by a Fury member. The only bewildering thing was that he only stayed for 1 tick or i would have been totally wiped out, from 29 mil.

However the next day as i was down to 20 mil, Sid paid a call to my humble planet with 300k Frigs/40k Ghosts with a pod fleet 3 ticks behind it. I moved my fleet, lost my 20k PDS, and recalled in time to inflict over 10 mil worth of damage to his pod fleet. regained the roids i lost later that night.


But getting constant incoming by people 100 times my size and better got very old in the end. Made for a bunch of sleepless nights, launching 3 D fleets at 3 am then hitting V mode just to get some rest.....

Still managed 40 mil despite it all, but knowing that i could have been totally wiped out in 1 tick at any time = dark times.

Probably R6 where I was GC of the (for most of the round) #2 gal in c5 (after Jurgen's -Juggles- #1 galaxy). We did ok - finishing an average #74 with some good players including a random who performed better than most of us and we also acheived the highest -Xan points for a FoS gal.

We did get to #1 position in the cluster early on, however and were later beaten back by some ViruS attacks. Later in the round, being told that Juggles himself had been arranging attacks on us so he could get to #1 spot was quite a downer on an otherwise fun round.

we only disbanded cos private gals weren't allowed in round 8, really... the core members stayed right up to round 7... and as you know, we're back for round 9 ;-)

That was only thanks to the genius of eliminating private galaxies, nothing more. Even though only a couple of us actually remain from the original r2 gal, I think the gal will go on in some form or another as long as private galaxies are a part of the game. In a way it's a shame there aren't more gals that act like this. Not there to win or whore to large alliances (think the only time we did that was VeX in r4), just there to have some fun with friends. Of course we'll never win a round with this kind of play style, but we usually manage a top 200 (occasionally 100) position, not to mention actually getting some sleep.

Disclaimer: Any stories about me causing the destruction of several players fleets in r3 as part of some misguided suicide against Legion are greatly exaggerated. Thank you.
