Yup, simmers paradice
I think the ww need a bit more to build than just an alliance controlling an island. As it is an easy feat for a huge rim alliance to easily build the wonders while the true dominating alliance focuses on the battles. Maybe the ww should be built in the 4 core oceans and only the 4 core oceans. Otherwise the ww are just promoting alliances to sim. It is easy to control an island on the rim, but it is not so easy to control an island in the core. And while the core alliances are the ones who actually battle from the start, why do the rim alliances have the oppurtunity to win the world just because they have no enemies and are able to sim till the ww era starts? Honestly inno, the ww need a little more thought on how they are built. But that is just my opinion, as I see numerous alliances showing the crown of winning the wonder thing, but yet the players involved are still sending unescorted attacks, or attacking with swords. So what does having the crown prove? Yup I am a super simmer who knows how to send resources to some object on an island we control. The players who are true vets and battle the core and spend the resources for troops instead of buildings are at a loss with the new way of grepo.
Guess it is better to start a world late and just sim with the noobs that just joined and dominate an acean that has no resistance so you can easily control an island that is too far for the true dominant alliance to reach. Honestly, the current ww way is not set for anything other than simming. So I dont have the top stats in my world I play, so what they mean nothing these days

Just wander, by your opinion, which one of all Corith alliances were "true dominating"?

He was in PB until they gave up their quest for dominance, so what do you think? ;p
and, honestly, the whole "they still send unescorted attacks" thing makes me lol.
It's a war game...part of war is strategy (a fact clearly lost on many/most of the former PB). Some see the whole picture early, and some see it late. Those that see it late, come here and complain about how unfair it is. Bottom line: it's a game. If the way you played led to you having fun, more power to you. I had fun AND plan to win; if we don't win, I'll still consider it a "win" because I had fun (the real goal in any game, isn't it?).

I have not found grepo as fun as it was in Xi. Those were the days where actual skill and activity actually meant something. Not like current grepo where I can drop a few hundred gold to mass produce a fleet to attack a player who doesnt have the gold to spend and take his city. But the players who play to those standards are nothing more than bullies imo.
Honestly 2.0 and the WW and the lack of actual achievements needed to build a WW I find it obsured for any alliance that is not top ranks in points and also abp to be able to build a wonder. You have the fighters in the core and the simmers on the rim(as far as most worlds are concerned), so the rim dudes have no threats so they can florish while the core fighters are actually battling for the fun of battle. Then you get an alliance to merge multiple alliances to gain numbers so they have more resources to be shipped.
So yea I was PB, and now I am not. I switched alliances not cause that is what I felt was the thing to do, but due to my mate asking me to. I had originally planned to say if I am not PB I am solo, but for my mate I went against my ways. But that doesnt change my opinion of how the WW build requirements are lacking in thought preperation. But my opinion is just that, my opinion. And I dont see anything changing just cause I have my opinion.

My dear hilop, i have a feeling that you avoid to answer my question.
Instead, you talk about "good old times" on En14 world and experience you got there. I don't know about that cause i was busy in En 10 where my 10 friends and i were fighting (and winning) against group of alliances with 400 players.
Next, you talk about gold users and bullies. You forgot to mention who were greatest gold diggers and bullies in Corinth before we made them run away.
Fighters in core, simmers on the rim, right. How come "simmers" manage to take 3 cities from "fighters" in exchange for one lost? Cause that is approximate ratio of city gain/lost since the beginning of our war.
And last, one of the greatest human quality is ability to adapt to changes. You and your friends failed to adapt, thus, you will lose this game.
PS; is it much to expect from you to reveal your in game identity?

Well count I will say this. I truly enjoyed Xi as it was a 1.26 world. Add to that the willingness I had to sleep on the couch so I would wake often to check if I was attacked or to dodge. I sniped 99% of any cs sent at me, and having 10 isolated cities that had round the clock attacks and cs's sent by 4 or 5 alliances, those were the days that I found grepo super fun. But then they upgraded to 2.0 Add the perfect snipe I had just before the update to end up late after the update to the response errors and lag that killed my playstyle of sniping cs's with precision landing 1 second after the cs. Grepo has not been what I once enjoyed, now I am here not to have the stats, but enjoy the chats ingame with the mates I have.
So the simmers take 3 cities from the fighters, well when the simmers pact with any threat that is willing to pact then that gives the simmers the advantage of only having the fighters to deal with. While the fighters have multiple enemies on multiple fronts.
So you say I failed to adapt, well that might be so. But you cant deny that the ww requirements need to be rethought to where the alliances that actually have the stats in abp should have the advantage. Otherwise, why do we bother with the battles, may as well just have the alliance take an island that is secure and out of reach of the other alliances. As that is the way as of now:/
And as far as the greatest gold diggers in cornith I am unaware. Are they PB players? If so then I say shame on PB. But that adds to my point of how gold cuts promote bullying. If I can spend a mint to mass produce a fleet to take a city, then why would another who cant spend a mint even bother trying as he/she is at a loss even before he/she realizes.
So to answer your questions my dear count,
Yes I found Xi awesome and hate that it was updated to 2.0, which ruined it. You were in en 10 at the time, I guess on the rim cause I was there in the core before I jumped to Xi. And add the other core mates that also jumped, there were not many vet players for you to worry with lol
And the dominating alliance in cornith is PB. Like it, dont like it, it doesnt matter. Stats dont lie, and PB ruled the abp rankings while at the same time having a member count lower than the other alliances. So whatever alliance you are in, your stats I can say for sure were nowhere near the stats of PB. And if the ww had requirements that benifited the fighter moreso than the simmer then I doubt any other alliance would be able to even build a ww lol
And as far as my ingame name, that is truly irrevelant. Or maybe I am no longer in cornith, as I deleted my acct months ago Either way it truly doesnt matter cause I find the game has lost what once gave me the desire to top the ranks, now I just play to socialize with others.

So, you were in En10 also? Maybe you were part of that beautiful "veteran" crew that was sending unprotected CS at me, which i was sea storming with great pleasure? Obviously, you didn't last too long since you moved to En 14.
Rim or core, that is a dilemma. Somehow, i always start in oceans 56 or 57 and have to fight my way up to the center of the world. So, call me simmer cause i didn't spawn in very center.
What amazed me on Corinth was the fact that some people managed to to pile good chunk of ABP's and get their second or even third city, before i got my first city CS ready. Pretty fast i realized, i am dealing with people who spend allot of gold on running olympic games, on cutting building time for buildings and troops.
On other hand i never used premium on En10, even though i was always ranked among first 100 players. Same thing here on Corinth. Maybe you can't see that by checking my ABP stat, but that's my curse. I always get to fight against turtles. I don't go around bulliing small players. And that's another new thing i learned in Corinth. Those who sim are always first to accuse others for simming. Those who accuse you to attack only inactives and small are always first who do that (and pile ABP's). Those who fight alone against whole world actually have allot secret pacts.
And there was another thing that i never saw before. Multiple people play same account. 2 or 3 of them, active 24/7, farming, attacking, building. Boy and his girlfriend, father with son and daughter etc. Is that sound familiar to you? Yes, they were in PB. Still, simmers as we are, we took allot of cities from them. Can you say how many you took from us? And before you answer, don't try to hide behind "too many of you against few of us". Don't forget, we started war against you when you were greater in numbers, and we had no pact with any other alliance.
I understand, that's war. Deception, planning ahead, keeping your cards hidden till the last moment, as well as fighting. I respect that as a part of Sun-Tzu philosophy. PB used that philosophy, we are using it better. There's no point throwing stones like you are without sin.

Yup I was part of the vet crew in kappa. But I wasnt sending unprotected cs's at all. You were in the top 100 of point ranks, that is awesome. I was in the top 15 of point and abp ranks. And in the top 5 of defending ranks. Add to that Berx and I holding our own against 2 or 3 alliances trying to take our cities and us sniping the cs's not with SS but well timed sniping attacks. But I liked the Xi settings better, and it is very time consuming to play 2 fast paced worlds at the same time so I chose Xi.
As far as me calling the rim for simmers, I have been on the rim and found that the actual competition is not like it is in the core. So it was easy for me to move from the rim to the core cause I didnt have aggressive players going after me as I was trying to grow And when I got to the core I had safe cities on the rim that I could send support from to the core and not worry about leaving them vunerable.
I cant say who was spending gold to cut builds, or for cp's or whatever as I have no clue who was or wasnt. But I can say that I wasnt. But I can say that I am now a true turtle simmer It has been quite a while since I actually hit the attack button lol, but the found city button is getting some serious wear.
But the "too many of you against few of us" is awesome when trying to hide. You wouldnt have a chance on seeing me if I chose to hide behind it lol. But the multiple players on one acct doesnt sound familiar to me. Those who I chat with often are not multi players, and they are also not goldies who spend a mint on the cuts and such. Were/are there players in PB who were using those methods, yea there probably were. Do you know the actual numbers of which alliance took how many from the other? I dont know, but I could easily go to stats and find out. But I would have to find which alliance you are in first, but honestly I am not worried about it any longer. So I guess the question now for you is am I just saying I am not worried cause I dont have a legitimate point against what you are saying. Well the answer is no, I gave my opinion on the requirements of the WW's. As far as all the other parts I am not gonna continue with the "my alliance is better than yours, or your alliance has the stats due to buying them". Players need to play how they find the game is enjoyable for them, and currently I am finding being a "turtle simmer" is quite enjoyable for me. Oh and I am refering to my rheth world on the "turtle simmer" But if you look I am solo there and I have 0 PACT's, but that is irrevelant.

PE? I think PE was after the departure of hilop from Kappa
Mate I dont argue, I give my opinions. If you have opinions that go against mine then so be it.

Not cause I care if I get my point across to those I am replying to So feel free to disagree with any opinion I may have. The more that disagree the better, that just sets me further away from what is considered normal. Which is fine with me, cause I make choices that I want, not cause I am pressured to do what society says is normal. I may be different, but I am my own man who doesnt make decisions based on anything other than what I feel I should do
