So every post you make is about this so called "hug fest". And yet I'm sitting on the side with 49 players and an "academy" of 18 that we more or less use as a springboard when recruiting. That's it. Meanwhile you're sitting on the side with what, 7 alliances (OV, TT, Winners, Winners' Spirit, Winners II, Oceans Brotherhood and Alliance went AWOL lol) and 228 players? (forgive me if I miscounted).
We obviously had to get our members somewhere. Due to being further from the center of the world, good players are spaced further apart and thus joined from different areas at different times which is why we have a much more spread out area than you do. You obviously recruited players at some point, same as us, we're just being "accused" of merging our way to the top for it because it happened later, I for example started this world 5-6 weeks after you did and therefore joined a good alliance at a later point.
So all we've done is recruited players we thought were decent to great to reach our alliance cap and you've been in the so called Tripact forever and have been also working with Winners and all their academies for a while. So I either completely misunderstand the definition of hugging or you're just talking out of your *** ^^
The combined score against the 7 alliances mentioned above is 39-51. It is true we are down 25 cities to OV themselves.
Take those stats in as stats, before I talk about them. What I have to say aren't excuses, just facts I think are also relevant to them.
Chacka1 sadly left us about 2 weeks ago, because of a family situation irl. He was granted a 48h ceasefire by OV and its allies (thank you for doing the honorable thing) but unfortunately he was unavailable to hit VM. So the 20 cities OV and OB took from him after he went inactive are all fair game, It does however have to be mentioned they were taken without a fight so using them to make your stats look good isn't entirely truthful.
I'm sure there have been cities we took from the other side from inactives as well. Stats do say we are slightly behind in a contest where we are outnumbered about 3:1 and it seems a fair reflection of how it feels like it's been going. This is a war game, but the WW era isn't always about fighting so we have put efforts into different areas, not just the frontline with OV/Winners where, as said, we haven't exactly been winning.
While I don't really care whether you take us seriously or not, the only story spun about us on the externals so far is Coxwanas either extemely opinionated or just plain wrong version...so here's a view from the other side.
We have reached a boring phase of the game but I hope you can all enjoy it regardless. I'm here for fun and my friends and not to make myself look good on an internet forum ^^
Kind regards
