I agree...you know how many people we held at Nikel for a while? DC that would have pushed to Arrius or BRK otherwise....just saying...not everyone posts in zonechat where to go and why.
And I dunno why your group is pushing down to AD home keep instead of trying to get Bleakers or Chalman when you so much for playing the map?

I wanted to discuss something that happened in the game, I think that is pretty much the point of the forums. You know, other than posting awesome memes and Skyrim references in comments.

What are you trying to discuss? Lol. You already wrote an ending summary/conclusion in your original post. Are you just trying to get people to talk smack on EP?
I hope thats EP taking Brindle. Brindle has a lot of intrinsic strategery because of all the tactics they keep inside of it.

I personally think that taking Nikel in that scenario was not the best thing to do. I do understand the motivations of the people doing so though. EP has been zerged down to Kingscrest and Farragut for 5-6hours straight this morning, not relying on any guild online, and fighting actively against said organized AD guilds who usually bunch up in a ball of 25-40 bees.
This get very old after a while and going very deep in enemy territory to capture either Nikel or Brindle gets some frustration and pressure off for a while instead of being constantly zerged down around EP trikeeps.
This being said, I don't think that taking Nikel when we don't already have our home keep bonus is the right thing to do. When we struggle to get Arrius, I always encourage EP to flag Drake / Sej and then go for Arrius. I also encourage people to form ressource capping small groups and go deep in enemy territory to capture random ressources to encourage the enemy zerg to unstack and in the meantime, give a chance to people pushing for the home keeps.
Taking Nikel when we don't own Chalman or scrolls was unecessary in my opinion , but again I understand the reasoning behind it and the fact that behind zerged down by AD 24men organized ball groups for 5-6hours straight with no EP guild active gets pretty irritating.

...if you're red and you take nikel, you do it to farm, not for strategic map play frozn. You say "you understand the reasoning behind it" but... clearly not.

Like I said in zone, why be surprised? Judging by the individuals defending such a scumbag thing, I bet it's the same guild that pushed their guildie's Emp and were monumental in EP losing the last cycle. I guess seeing Frozn ahead of them on leaderboards makes them want to emulate Havoc, with much less success and love from their faction. It's like telling the same glue-eating kids why they shouldn't eat glue and then getting upset when they still eat glue. Daft,selfish people will be daft and selfish no matter what you do.

what?. it's a game people are playing on a sunday. this is not life and death, chill.
I laugh whenever someone tells me they aren't at Nickel to farm.
By this point I've heard every excuse, and they're all silly. I preferred the old IR method, where you tell people you're farming and then proceed to do so. Pretending you're not farming is weird and completely transparent.
Look at all those group member icons.
Just get your zerg to go cap the scrolls and stop complaining. I'd probably have taken Nikel there too if I were EP, they probably got a good bit of juice and some good fights

+1 whatever people said about IR, we never hid our intent.
