Part 1
Good evening all, and welcome back to my top ten series where I talk far too much about what is happening on the server. As I'm writing this for the second time, I hope you're all safe during the awful pandemic happening across the our Earth. I accidentally clicked of this when I was writing it and well, I had to rewrite about two thousand words just for you, so I hope you really enjoy it!
Fair warning though guys, INFORMATION OVERLOAD is ahead, this will be very detailed, and maybe boring for some, if that's the case, skip to your favorite alliance and read that part as every alliance will be numbered, like it always has been with my series.
Also, please keep in mind English isn't my first language, so the grammar can be questionable, if it that happens, feel free to blame
Trist, as he is proofreading the whole thing, to spot any mistakes due to
LuckyDream being a bad influence encouraging me to drink my pineapple cider a little too much at times!
Grab your drinks, and enjoy the read. It will most likely be in 4 different parts since I will be adding an extra bit on dominance chances alongside a little story build up inside this lovely document, facts, throw offs and questions, to ensure you're questioning your sanity at night!
Stay safe, stay hydrated, remember I love you all, and don't pick you nose.
Lastly, please remember this is just my opinion, so please if you think I'm wrong about something be sensible and lets discuss it in the
civil manner below, it's much better for everyone not to bring the claws out, as we have seen a fair share of that on this server.
1. Stooges -Swim.
Hello hello, finally after a long long time, there is a new alliance sitting in the number one spot, that alliance is Stooges, my home and the team which receives a lot of hate, and has been consistently throughout the server. Despite all the hatred, I believe we're doing really well and that we have an amazing team and family, but then again that is just my opinion. If we weren't hated before, we're definitely getting some sour looks now due to the recent events and us working with Check Mate, the lovely chess people who return from their needed vocation. A lot of people were very surprised and disappointed when this first occurred, to keep you all reading the reasons will be inside this wonderful document separated in different parts, so if you're reading this, you also have a little puzzle to figure out so keep both eyes on the document! Enough about Check though, I believe we will be swimming for a long time and you will see us on the next chapter. Not to sound big headed of course, but I believe our positioning and great teamwork will keep us all going, especially with the amazing leadership we have which again, may seem questionable to some which makes it that much more exciting! I won't be including the defensive and offensive statistics because they're close enough to where each alliance place, mostly matches that number in the fighting rankings. However, on that note the Stooges defensive rankings have been rising extremely fast, some know why. For those who don't, keep reading!
As for the dominance and chances of winning, again bias opinion, but I believe we're in a strong position, showing heavy presence in 55 and 45, as well as some 54 presence as well. I believe our family has a good shot at this world, despite the fact we're hm, not too likable at the moment.
2. Kleos - Swim.
Here we are again, visiting Kleos who is going strong and is right on the Stooges tail, chasing that number one rank. It's no secret that Kleos is my second favorite alliance on the server, as I have a lot of respect for this group, especially Mercenary who put up with my little whining phase a while back. I always said Kleos was a strong team, and they were overlooked for a long time in ocean 44. Some may even say they were in Nemesis's shadow, well I believe they proved themselves, they are most definitely, no ones shadow. Kleos is currently hitting Check Mate as much as possible as they were bleeding cities for the past few days, gathering and gaining some cities in ocean 44/45 and even 54 as Check Mate is still being hit by a large number of alliances. Kleos definitely benefited from this the most, climbing the ranks extremely quick. With that being said, from what I can gather the pace of things may be slowing down a little now, as Check Mate has gained a huge confidence boost with Stooges helping our most hated team on the server out. Also, there may be some eyebrows raised and a question to be exact, asking what's their relationship like with Nemesis at the moment? As some of you may know, Nemesis played a big part in the coalition cracking, losing a valuable coalition member. The question now is, how is Kleos taking it all, and are they wondering if the same will happen to them? The event in question will be answered as you read further down reader, keep collecting the puzzles reader!
I believe Kleos's position at dominating is currently very high, same as Stooges, showing presence in 3 oceans. I believe at the moment, it's between those two for sure, with Kleos having a slight advantage.
3. Check Mate - Swim.
Oh gosh, here we are again, with our favorite and most hated team on the server, the chess players. A group which is hated by a lot of people as some of the external chats show, but let me tell you one thing, believe it or not they have been growing on me. It may surprise some of you, I strongly disliked this group back in the days, I was most definitely, not happy to work with them at first due to obvious reasons, and the fact that I do tent to hold grudges as well, which is my personal downside to life! I don't agree, with the battle point boosting and I never will, but hey things change quickly, other bad things happen, and I believe this group does get a lot of hate, perhaps a little too much but I do understand the anger. However as I said, I believe they have learned from it, we all make mistakes. They've most definitely grown on me, and there are a lot of wonderful people here once you get to know them a little. I believe Check Mate will swim, yes they boosted back in the days, yes it was wrong but at the same time, I have a lot of faith in them, and with the help from Stooges I think they will eventually stabilize and turn things around for the better, and have a potential chance at winning the world themselves.
As for dominance side of things, I think Check Mate is most definitely, behind Kleos and Stooges, as the coalition caused them a lot of pain and damage, breaching them from all sides. However, I wouldn't count them out just yet.
Shoutout to TheLastCrusader, god we had our differences and I was not a fan, but it's good to be working with you and to set our differences aside for the good of others, and ourselves.
