    That was literally the first thing I noticed when I logged on. AD with farragut and seiging kc while dc still had emp. Picking on easy targets I guess? Though it felt like ep had a lot more fight in them this afternoon than dc.

    That's because EP has learned to fight with lesser numbers. DC literally needs an entire faction zerg to burst down Bleaks and Chalman when they have the smallest bit of defense (mainly our boy @Zander98 kiting fools for days and whittling them down one by one).

    Proof: I was at Chalman both nights this week when DC faction stacked the keep.

    Watching certain DC guilds get wiped repeatedly last night on flags by AD groups a third their size was hilarious last night. It felt good being on the front lines, drawing in all their fire with reliable healers at my back and damage flying out towards the squishier blues.

    Good fighting all around AD. Good fighting.

    That faction stack though. We ran much larger than normal with TM to help counteract that but it was ridiculous at times...

    61 DC! I didn't know they could stack *** that high.

    Don't forget DR at alessia and faregyl pre-dethrone, making bogus claims about TM zerging them down with 40 yesterday when we maxed out at 18 in group.

    Ah I think I see where you're getting confused.

    So for example if I said:

    TM zerged with 40 AD.

    It doesn't mean anybody thinks TM has 40 in group, rather, in this instance the preposition with is providing descriptive information about the composition of ADs zerg.

    However I tend to agree with you. It's a little disingenuous to phrase it that way, because as you pointed out you don't even make up more than 50% of those blobs. And people might start to get the wrong idea and think TM runs huge groups.

    So I think a better statement would be:

    TM zerg surfed 40 AD.

    Most of the time it seems we fight DR or even EP is if you guys push south past sej with DC still emp. Or if we're trying to deliver a little retribution for that or pushing emp ourselves.

    We'd prefer to deliver some much deserved comeuppance to DC though.

    Also forgot to say that if we were zerg surfing pugs and fighting DR they were either some place they shouldn't have been (alessia/faregyl/roe) with DC emp, or inside the last emp keep. Same as when we got beat back at BRK last night when DC held aleswell still.

    Was glad to make an agreement with DR not to fight EP and AD respectively until dethrone after all that stuff last night, only it fell apart immediately inside Aleswell once we got through the outer front door and set up on the western postern when another EP group attacked us there.

    I love how when we got emp a couple days ago, we didn't get the emp buff but DC still kept it. And now we get emp again, and still no buff. You guys really will do anything won't you.

    I think the server gave up keeping track and just defaults to dc having emp at all times. It'd be right most of the time anyways..

    Think of the server calculations being saved by not taking buffs away from DC for a few hours only to give them back later

    I just wanted to point out AD was having a few odd moments of their own. Not sure if it was in retaliation originally, but I saw groups of AD attacking Sej, BRK, and Drake (This was before EP pushed towards Fare), though, to be fare (hahahaha, okay that was bad), none of them were TM as far as I know. I believe some of the EP have been upset because everytime they try and push blue for a Dethrone, some Yellow usually end up attacking Red Keeps, including our Tri-keeps (Again, I don't think it was TM, seeing as I was over fighting against blue and Valla totally yoinked the DC that were trying to kill me. It was a glorious bomb, and it saved my bacon lol). The problem is is that neither faction has total control of their players. Groups like TM can suggest and say don't attack EP, but most of the yellows will see EP fighting DC, and think: "Wow, those red keeps and scrolls will be easy pickings."

    The same can be said Vice Versa for EP players. I can't tell you how frustrated I get sometimes at EP, when we are working with Yellow, and then, all of a sudden, a group of EP flags Alessia, and then red and yellow murder each other, and blue finish off the remains. Its a problem that both sides have, and honestly, will probably never be able to fully solve.

    I know last night was all over the place. EP attacked DC at Aleswell, because a group of AD pushed the EP siege, killed some of them, and then prevented EP from getting in. They ended up dying, and people said forget about AD, focus DC, but not everyone will listen (That was what I observed, anyways. The AD attack could have been retaliation for something else that happened even before that lol :p).

    I know AD killed me on the FD, when I dropped down and tried to attack the blue siegers who were spraying fire and meatbags through the front (Though, to be fair, I think I just wound up caught in the cross fire because the siege stopped, and yellow dropped ults and charged in haha). All in all, it was a blast, and I had a ton of fun last night, even though I was lagging like crazy, and crashed a few times xD

    Yeah it's all probably a ridiculous circle of retaliation at this point, just gotta get back to stomping on blue.

    WTF are you smoking? EP pushing for dethrone? Last time DC had 1 keep left for emp, EP was down at Fare trying to push AD all the way to our gates, so don't give me that ***. EP never pushes for dethrone, it's always AD doing the dethrone, EP will always focus AD no matter what.

    Saying EP never pushes for a Dethrone is like saying AD never pushes for a Dethrone. The cycle goes back and forth, there have been many times that EP has tried to make a Dethrone push, only to lose keeps to AD. Even AD players recognize this. Just a few days ago, when DC had Emp, and we were trying to take Chal to get a foothold in the Ring, AD players began attacking out Tri-Keeps, even though they still hadn't gotten Fare back. It wasn't a group of Farmers, either, it was actual siege. That wasn't the only time something like that has happened, either. This isn't something that AD does just to EP, because I have seen EP do it back. Having our Tri-keeps, no emp keeps, and pushing on Fare. There is no denying it, especially when other AD players have pointed out how idiotic it was that AD was attacking EP for no reason other than: "Well, maybe the fight is easier."

    I know it frustrates people on EP when something like that happens, trying to put so much effort into a dethrone against a Poplocked faction, only to lose our stuff to AD, and I am sure the AD players feel the same way when EP does it to them. The point still stands, both side push for Dethrones, and both side have people who either A.) Do not want to fight DC/ Think EP is an easier target, or B.) Are Farming

    The farming is really not that big a deal. Some EP will show up to a farm, some won't. Usually everyone ends up somewhat happy with those (Or the farmers get zerged down because they took the Arrius Lumber, which is on the way to chal... lol).

    I also distinctly remember AD pushing on EP keeps when we were trying to work with TM for a Dethrone at Ash. I remember this because I whispered a buddy of mine on AD who said they were literally face palming because of it. It goes both ways.

    Wanted to add this in: I am not saying EP is some holier than though saint faction. We Zerg, we do stupid stuff. But every faction does stupid things from time to time, its just how the game is lol.

    Uh, yeah... the multiple DR-led dethrones would like to speak to you, this one from this week in particular.

    9EGtUXW.png

    In fact, most of the time it's DR doing anything on the map for EP, and frankly, quite a few of us are tired of it, mainly because the majority of EP straight up go full potato if Sej ever turns red. But oh man, don't let them catch us raising West/South/North EP for our shenanigans or zone chat will light up with insults aimed at us for "not helping the faction."

    Also, don't even get me started on the fiasco we had Friday afternoon trying to take Sej to help the pugs break out of the tri-keeps, where we repeatedly got bombed by TM & 20+ AD, as if it was the last emp keep on the ring. When they had the entire ring yellow. And then, get this, they actually asked @Dutchessx to help with dethroning last night. I think the entire TS was laughing for like a minute straight after that gem.

    Or better yet, how about Thursday when we pushed DC all the way to Ash for the dethrone (even after a mass server crash/DC), only for our group of 12 to get sandwiched between the DC turbozerg and an AD zerg who was too lazy to open up a second breach.

    It's almost as if the only time two factions gang up on Sotha is to dethrone any EP emp (ask @Malibulove, @Prince_of_all_Pugs, or any of the DR emps that have held during the past few cycles). I ain't complaining though, the defense ticks are more than worth it. 45k during the double AP week when ya'll failed at Chalman, and then 17k 2 weeks ago when ya'll failed at BRK.

    So next time remember to source your quotes before you make baseless accustations.

    Or better yet, how about Thursday when we pushed DC all the way to Ash for the dethrone (even after a mass server crash/DC), only for our group of 12 to get sandwiched between the DC turbozerg and an AD zerg who was too lazy to open up a second breach.

    It's almost as if the only time two factions gang up on Sotha is to dethrone any EP emp (ask @Malibulove, @Prince_of_all_Pugs, or any of the DR emps that have held during the past few cycles). I ain't complaining though, the defense ticks are more than worth it. 45k during the double AP week when ya'll failed at Chalman, and then 17k 2 weeks ago when ya'll failed at BRK.

    So next time remember to source your quotes before you make baseless accustations.

    I am not expert in faction politics in Sotha but this happens in every campaign against any enemy. Do EP have some other code of conduct regarding outposts? If I read right you got wrecked and generated some salt.

    Was glad to make an agreement with DR not to fight EP and AD respectively until dethrone after all that stuff last night, only it fell apart immediately inside Aleswell once we got through the outer front door and set up on the western postern when another EP group attacked us there.
    @Kartalin I put it in zone & immediately crashed, I didn't get back in until after the dethrone & the keep turning yellow. I can't even say if it made it or not or what people said or did after I dc'ed. All I know is when the game finally allowed me back in I was outside a yellow Aleswell wall and had at least 6 AD + guards swarming me by myself, tried to make it to the resource almost made it but died in the stairs. Re-spawned & fought my way to my group. The fight was fun but nothing like logging in & finding yourself where you don't want to be. I believe a good chunk of our group crashed when we got close to that keep.

    Most of the time it seems we fight DR or even EP is if you guys push south past sej with DC still emp. Or if we're trying to deliver a little retribution for that or pushing emp ourselves.

    We'd prefer to deliver some much deserved comeuppance to DC though.

    I just wanted to point out AD was having a few odd moments of their own. Not sure if it was in retaliation originally, but I saw groups of AD attacking Sej, BRK, and Drake (This was before EP pushed towards Fare), though, to be fare (hahahaha, okay that was bad), none of them were TM as far as I know. I believe some of the EP have been upset because everytime they try and push blue for a Dethrone, some Yellow usually end up attacking Red Keeps, including our Tri-keeps (Again, I don't think it was TM, seeing as I was over fighting against blue and Valla totally yoinked the DC that were trying to kill me. It was a glorious bomb, and it saved my bacon lol). The problem is is that neither faction has total control of their players. Groups like TM can suggest and say don't attack EP, but most of the yellows will see EP fighting DC, and think: "Wow, those red keeps and scrolls will be easy pickings."

    The same can be said Vice Versa for EP players. I can't tell you how frustrated I get sometimes at EP, when we are working with Yellow, and then, all of a sudden, a group of EP flags Alessia, and then red and yellow murder each other, and blue finish off the remains. Its a problem that both sides have, and honestly, will probably never be able to fully solve.

    I know last night was all over the place. EP attacked DC at Aleswell, because a group of AD pushed the EP siege, killed some of them, and then prevented EP from getting in. They ended up dying, and people said forget about AD, focus DC, but not everyone will listen (That was what I observed, anyways. The AD attack could have been retaliation for something else that happened even before that lol :p).

    I know AD killed me on the FD, when I dropped down and tried to attack the blue siegers who were spraying fire and meatbags through the front (Though, to be fair, I think I just wound up caught in the cross fire because the siege stopped, and yellow dropped ults and charged in haha). All in all, it was a blast, and I had a ton of fun last night, even though I was lagging like crazy, and crashed a few times xD

    WTF are you smoking? EP pushing for dethrone? Last time DC had 1 keep left for emp, EP was down at Fare trying to push AD all the way to our gates, so don't give me that ***. EP never pushes for dethrone, it's always AD doing the dethrone, EP will always focus AD no matter what.
    Uh, yeah... the multiple DR-led dethrones would like to speak to you, this one from this week in particular.

    9EGtUXW.png

    In fact, most of the time it's DR doing anything on the map for EP, and frankly, quite a few of us are tired of it, mainly because the majority of EP straight up go full potato if Sej ever turns red. But oh man, don't let them catch us raising West/South/North EP for our shenanigans or zone chat will light up with insults aimed at us for "not helping the faction."

    Also, don't even get me started on the fiasco we had Friday afternoon trying to take Sej to help the pugs break out of the tri-keeps, where we repeatedly got bombed by TM & 20+ AD, as if it was the last emp keep on the ring. When they had the entire ring yellow. And then, get this, they actually asked @Dutchessx to help with dethroning last night. I think the entire TS was laughing for like a minute straight after that gem.

    No but it's generally good manners to not zerg down anyone trying to generate some competition/activity, especially when you control 100% of the inner keeps.

    Er, that's not right, what I meant to say was "lol our 10man couldn't outplay some scrubs, we should just disband and quit the game."

    Saying EP never pushes for a Dethrone is like saying AD never pushes for a Dethrone. The cycle goes back and forth, there have been many times that EP has tried to make a Dethrone push, only to lose keeps to AD. Even AD players recognize this. Just a few days ago, when DC had Emp, and we were trying to take Chal to get a foothold in the Ring, AD players began attacking out Tri-Keeps, even though they still hadn't gotten Fare back. It wasn't a group of Farmers, either, it was actual siege. That wasn't the only time something like that has happened, either. This isn't something that AD does just to EP, because I have seen EP do it back. Having our Tri-keeps, no emp keeps, and pushing on Fare. There is no denying it, especially when other AD players have pointed out how idiotic it was that AD was attacking EP for no reason other than: "Well, maybe the fight is easier."

    I know it frustrates people on EP when something like that happens, trying to put so much effort into a dethrone against a Poplocked faction, only to lose our stuff to AD, and I am sure the AD players feel the same way when EP does it to them. The point still stands, both side push for Dethrones, and both side have people who either A.) Do not want to fight DC/ Think EP is an easier target, or B.) Are Farming

    The farming is really not that big a deal. Some EP will show up to a farm, some won't. Usually everyone ends up somewhat happy with those (Or the farmers get zerged down because they took the Arrius Lumber, which is on the way to chal... lol).

    I also distinctly remember AD pushing on EP keeps when we were trying to work with TM for a Dethrone at Ash. I remember this because I whispered a buddy of mine on AD who said they were literally face palming because of it. It goes both ways.

    Wanted to add this in: I am not saying EP is some holier than though saint faction. We Zerg, we do stupid stuff. But every faction does stupid things from time to time, its just how the game is lol.

    Farming is fine, all factions do that, but it's not farming when 60+ EP zerg down our tri keeps instead of focusing on DC dethrone.

    Death head legion guild tag spotted on EP jerks who burned our FC while we were trying to dethorne DC. Thanks a lot.

    No problem! And hey...he did get dethroned, right? So you could crown Ms. Destro Ult? I don't call that an improvement. The AD point tick was way higher than Blue's, since they are a doormat whenever a comparable number of enemies are actually playing. Yeah, they had Emp...what's new? They had very little else. We're not gonna tunnel-vision them all day while AD paints the map yellow. Their point potential during the day is like...5. So stop crying because enemies did enemy stuff to you, bruh. It's a 3 faction war, and nobody is scared of a PVDoor Emperor. After all the times your faction has keep-jacked us during a dethrone, you're crazy if you think we aren't going to burn every AD Party Pavillion we find. Red and Yellow are not friends. You can make whatever backroom deals you want, but at the end of the day, I'm here to make points for Red, not You.

    No offense.

    Duly noted: will instruct AD to disregard the norms of a coordinated dethrone w/ EP for your guild only. Happy to oblige; it's not a big ask for me to hop off my siege for the 3 seconds it takes to wipe your group anyway.

    So...AD you are NO better than DC. At least the ones who just crowned emp.

    There were 4 (!!!!!!) EP defending Chal from 14+ AD. And you guys seriously put up Coldfire on the very few defenders? Shame on you. It's just as disgusting as DC perma emp and his "healer"

    There's norms? LOL

    You are welcome to try that any time. Your name doesn't ring a bell, so I can't say that's ever happened yet, but sure. Sounds fun, I mean that is why we're there...to kill you.

    Let me try to explain this slowly and carefully.

    Why would I want to "coordinate" with your horde of scrublets to dethrone an absentee landlord like DK Danny, at the cost of handing the Emp keeps to the AD? Did you actually play at all this weekend? The AD emp is annoying and actually fights (if spamming EOTS from stealth counts) and DK Danny does not. Why exactly would I want to trade him for Miss Bombsalot, and then have a big yellow Emp ring to try to back-cap after I basically handed it to you (an opposing faction) on a plate because emotions? I mean, if it gave EP some strategic advantage maybe. But while DC is ahead in points, their tick is consistently tiny during prime time and AD is still ahead of EP in score AND tick.

    You seem to be counting on the whole server's disdain of DKD to override common sense, and cause us to all self-defenestrate in your favor. I am aware that you contacted Dutchess, and tried to set something up to that effect, hilariously enough. But no. AD emp can kill people, DC Emp can't. AD can hold keeps against human players cuz they have 50 bajillion Banana zerglings, DC can't because other than K-Hole, all they can do is kill walls. AD was #2 score-wise, and you can't get to #1 yourself unless you can outscore #2? Ya know? Math? It's all very simple.

    So yer mad cuz EP didn't hand Emp to ya with a side of fries. Got it. That's stupid... but I got it.
