Well I see no need to beat around the bush. Its been a crazy week as always, several alliances got dismantled, and the moment you've all been waiting for has finally begun....FRANK Vs Just For Laughs....And friends. We'll be getting into the juicy details of that pending fight as well as Just For Laughs raging successes in O54 this week. But first as always the link to our world chat.

Note: Due to a major shift in partnerships and me effectively resetting the score board for anyone fighting the old Raptor Empire. What ever you took from 00:00:01 8/2/2020 onwords is now your score, it will likely need to be self reported. I'm doing this in the spirit of fairness to Just For Laughs since it'd be a prick move to just have them take on the Raptors old score.
1) Just For Laughs Empire (Just For Laughs, Just For Laughs II, Red Sulfur, THE OLYMPIANS, Olympians Too, Fractured Mollys, Fractured Tomb Raiders, Fractured Marvins, Eviction Notice)- Was there any doubt they'd be here? Actually yes because Charlie went and got himself banned. But they still have the largest and most powerful group on paper and honestly had the best week in Sidon so we'll spot them the top spot this week. Just For Laughs, despite many complaints about their spam tactics, have taken the Watchers and Creed war to such a point that its pointless to list the score. Just know that its a blow out in favor of Just For Laughs. They also entered into a war with Smoking Snakes, who had just defeated the Twisted Alliances, which they won within the first couple days by a lopsided result as far as early scores go. Having secured his number 1 spot in the rankings as well as secured O54 and for the most part O44, Charlie feels comfortable in moving into O45 to do what he came here to do. Rather than a long slog to fight FRANK he decided to play his last card and either reveal a partnership with the former Raptor Empire (now Red Sulfur) or enter into a partnership with them through taking hand offs and presumably receiving some local LTS and resource aid. Its still early but the score is 0-1 in favor of FRANK (through the Olympians). They're also 0-7 with the Fluff Alliances since the partnership but I think with time. With the sheer amount of power they command they can also stack or conquer any temple they desire so expect them to begin buffing up soon. The question is what Charlie will do when his ban is up? Because its clear that he can no longer spam players and groups into submission, he'll have to rely on his abilities as an actual fighter.

2) Fluffy Pigeons/Fluffy Kittens- They are currently the lords of the seas of Sidon right now with their might temple buffs. I honestly like their odds to win the world but it'll be interesting to see what happens now that they're trying to pull Just For Laugh's card instead of just the Raptor Empire so far they're 7-0 vs Just For Laughs Empire after dealing a major blow to J1989Marshall. This puts them in a position where they're a close second power wise, but they have a lot of cities to take to actually win it all now. It'll be an interesting race to see.
World Status: Contender
3) FRANK- Already 1-0 with the Just For Laughs Empire but the same as Fluffy Alliances, its still early. The two questions are now that there's no side shows, distractions, or other things left to do for either team... Can FRANK live up to its team's name and Charlie live up to his own hype (when he gets off ban) in round 2 or will it end up the same as before? I think this is an all or nothing kind of battle where the losing leaders will fade away into eternal grepo irrelevance. It'll be interesting to see how the war pans out in the end.

4) No Drama/Zero Drama Zone- Their good diplomacy with the Fluffy Alliance gives them a boost into the top 5 alliances. I expect them to contend through their partnership with Fluffy as well. They're 0-1 to the Just For Laughs Empire and weren't really beating the Raptor Empire before.
World Status: Client Kingdom
5) Gold Traders- Didn't expect to see this here did you? Well don't be shocked they've carved out their own little rim kingdom where they control five small temples, including a Portal to Olympus. They're an unknown bunch but they appear to be in it to win it with that portal control.
World Status: Rim Kingdom
6)Undisciplined/Illdiscplined- 0-7 with Just For laughs and 0-7 with the Fluffy alliances. They're growing steadily and facing two of the toughest opponents. They have plenty of room to still grow even if they don't pull out a win, but they definitely have to get on the score board soon to keep their spot.
World Status: Rim Kingdom
7) K.o.D- Interestingly this is a split off alliance from the Watcher's. Their profile indicates that there's a little bit of bad blood going on between the alliances. They're 0-1 to the Watchers and 0-1 to Just For Laughs so far. But they seem spread out in O44 at the moment so it makes sense that they would lose some towns. They're currently feeding on the Wolves who they lead 8-1. Their main ocean of focus appears to be O43.
World Status: New Kingdom
8) Black- Their leader recently got into a spam war, left the alliance, and shortly thereafter "left" the world. So that's how that's going. They've crushed Kai Lee by a score of 32-0 but are1-2 with Creed, 0-12 with FRANK, and were losing to the former Raptor Empire. Still they continue to grow steadily in the world despite set backs.
World Status: Growing Kingdom
9) The Watchers/The Watcher's- They're narrowly clinging to life and it seems like their ability to just survive is paying off as Charlie is now banned. Maybe they can find a spark and take a few cities during this period.
World Status: Fragile Kingdom
10) Random JS Variable- They've always been around but have begun to grow and appear out of no where at the same time. They're 0-9 to Just For Laughs and that's really about their only relevant fight. However they've secured O65 as their own.
World Status: Rulers of O65
11) Relentless- They're currently beating Its a Dog's Life/dog lovers by a score of 5-2 so maybe there's a chance for them to steal the O66 Portal to Olympus and try to compete for a win. They're losing to everybody else they're fighting, its a shut out, so we're not going to get deep into that. They are however back to 13th in the points rankings which for an alliance that moved cores and got beat up all over is fairly impressive.
World Status: Rim Kingdom
12) Creed/Creed 2- Their fragility status remains intact as they continue to lose cities to Just For Laughs. They're not really winning on any front but they continue to stay in the game.
