We're only a few days out from world wonders starting. Pretty soon the next wave of foundings and coring will start and as they grow, this will boost boost us to the points requirements. Right now there's three relevant sides to wonders and a couple free agents left to pick up. I'll go over them in this power ranking.
1) Balkan Boyz/Balkan Boyz*/Ice Boyz- They're continuing to defeat the Carrots/Cabbages and have picked up Dnl off of them as well. They have 7 players in the top 15 players and now three branches in the top 15 alliances. They've also effectively replaced Bad With Names with a new partner in OCEANS VETERANS. The way I see it the door has been shut on Bad With Names ever really getting back into the conversation here. At this point the only thing that could probably stop them is themselves.
World Status: World Leader
2) OCEANS VETERANS/Rising Tide- I gave credit to us last week for picking up some finished off enemies. OCEANS VETERANS gets the boost this week for adding some of Bad With Names players. They also continue to clean up in ocean 45 and take towns off of Cabbage and Carrots. Adding an ally in Balkan Boyz ensures the win for them and Balkan Boyz.
World Status: Contender
3) The Booty Warrior Cult- Winning all our wars, primarily pushing back the Mongooses at the moment. Allied to Balkans Boyz and Pariahs.
World Status: Contender (by affiliation)
4) ***The Greeks***- They've started conquering capable and getting in on this Bad With Names collapse. Still counting the old BWN its 9-14. They've caught up but still will have to pull ahead. They're also down 0-2 to The Booty Warrior Cult, which wouldn't be a big deal, except the two are in one of the few logical places to have wonder clusters between them and their new ally M.A.D. they've been sending lightships and OLU at one of the towns in particular.
World Status: Spoiler
5) The Pariahs- Recently absorbed The Mob so they get a bump for that. The long term success of that merge will be determined based around how they root out anyone not on the app. Luckily with the Mongooses to go against, it'll become clear fast who is and isn't using the alarm. They're on the winning end of their wars. 4-2 with M.A.D., and 9-2 on Fighting Mongooses.
World Status: Contender
6) M.A.D./M.A.D.?- This is one of our main enemies so I'll have more to say here as I've learned a lot about them. This group would win any competition that involves survival, they've found a way to escape a bad situation numerous times. Their recent pact with The Greeks ends one front that was getting messy for them which is a major short term benefit for them. Yes, I said short term. The down side is that O44 is effectively closed to them, O43 and O53 have no expansion grounds, and they have to break through The Booty Warrior Cult and The Pariahs who lead them 15-10 and 4-2 respectively. Not an impossible comeback, ro had a pretty good week, but hard to do when you consider that this has been a three month war at this point and winning the world goes well beyond just getting past The Booty Warriors and Pariahs now. The main downside to this team is that they rely on a few to do the work of many. Which is what's routinely gotten them into trouble and caused them to lose leads. I'll cover more about the Greeks in the wonder overview.
World Status: Survivor
7) Return of the Cabbages/Rise of the Carrots- They've been reforming and still gradually losing players to due to them leaving or them quitting the game. They're also losing cities on both fronts. They're in trouble and might not make it to the end of the world. That's said, what's left could still probably beat whats left on the list. But there's a bit of irony here, they're basically in the position that ThePlague was in at the start of the world. The end is coming soon at this rate. The bright sides on this team right now appear to be Stoppable and Fluv.
World Status: Rapid Decline
8) Slackers- In an interesting position in the world where they have both a pact with OCEANS VETERANS and The Greeks. They're still beating the Twisted groups and have managed to make a decently respectable rim group. The question is can they latch on to one of the wonder groups?
World Status: Rim Alliance
9) Fighting Mongooses- They've started to lose a lot of towns. Having lost their Immortal branch and The Mob now, they're being pushed back towards O64, where they have had a lot of cities turn red as well. The problem here is that as they get pushed back, their wonder value declines too. They could end up alone.
World Status: Declining Rim Alliance
10) TAKO's- They're 1-12 with Balkan Boyz and 1-0 with The Pariahs. Overall though this is really a group on the outside looking in for wonders, they're boxed in by the Balkans, who have their wonder diplomacy set at this point I'm guessing.
World Status: Rim Alliance
11) Catnip Anon.- New comer to these rankings. They've been around for awhile and have carved out a nice space for themselves in O46. They're beating Big Child/Big Papa 57-4. I don't think that they care about wonders. So lets move on.
World Status: Rim Alliance
12) Second Chance- Seems to be another stab at reforming the Bunnies as its mostly ex-Bunny players. Best of luck to them.
