DC . The answers simple . Ego and blame don't win campaigns when you're the low pop underdogs . Look in the mirror . ...
If ego and blame don't win campaigns, why are you making a forum thread to blame your faction?
Personally, do not care about winning or losing a campaign anyway. Just there to enjoy killing people. Blame no one for my shortcomings in combat except myself.
Because personal responsibility leads to wisdom , followed by insight and growth . There's no ego blaming my faction , I'm in it after all . Instead of making dozens of threads about who cheats the most , I made one about action .
The real question is if you don't care , why post ?
Some people here do enjoy winning and are adding some positive suggestions and concerns .
I personally don't care who it is . Someone from NM , Dee Tic or who ever else was mentioned . Someone that knows the stratedgy of controlling the game map . Someone that can run a campaign . Sure their gonna make mistakes . BFD ! I say we give someone a shot . Then the next campaign if it didn't work for them , try a new person or keep the old .
TBH, one of the primary reasons why I don't lead PUGs is because there's already a lot of wannabe strategists spamming in zone. Also, it's hard to lead people when they aren't in group or TS, and it's a big headache to try to get a ton of people to do one thing or get organized. Coupled with the fact of, I always blame myself for any failure my guild has, I'd be shouldering a lot of guilt because large PUG groups are bound to fail.
Also, the strategies I would use, would require my enemies not to know. And we definitely have had spies in our zone chat before, so trying to strategize through zone chat, like hit X as a distraction, show up at Y for the real assault, would just wind up with the enemy faction sitting at Y ready to ambush us.
It's a tricky thing roechacca, it's a tricky thing.
NM has a great grasp of how to roll organized and effective, even completely and enormously outnumberd . Being afraid of failure was not something I expected to hear from any of your guild honestly . That's not a jab or a insult in any way . Just didn't expect that form of concern from You .
If you can get past that , DC would have some good leadership to follow .

As previous poster said most of the people with the personally to be a great general have left the game or taking breaks.
I would vote for someone like Grunt from LoM though.
What has happened to you guys? You used to be out there quietly flipping keeps and farming scrolls.

Honestly I agree. While I may strategically be able to think of good strategies for our alliance to execute, I don't think I'd make the best leader for our alliance.
A good leader needs the trust of those he leads, and they need to follow him without question.
I've rejected or discouraged a lot of people from joining NM because I believed they didn't fit what we do. Some have taken it as a growing opportunity and moved on. Some have taken and personally and rage quit barracks and may or may not hold a grudge against me.
So I definitely would not have the support needed to succeed as a DC wide alliance leader.

I don't mean that in a bad why, but DC needs our guilds to perform. We are filled with skirmishers. Without that spark we're stuck running between Ales and Chal killing stuff but making no progress.

You misunderstood me. I do not fear failure and my guild will follow me with whatever stupid plan or idea I have. Which is why when I decide we should hit arrius with 9 people, they follow me into glorious death against zergs of EP.
However, as a good leader I manage morale as well. And leading a bunch of PUGs or guilds into certain death doesn't help our alliance morale.

Oh ok gotcha . Hopefully someone will step up and try to get the loose groups together for some big pushes on the map . If no one does I'll give it a shot but will need communication with everyone .
Anyone that has more suggestions, wants to lead or help hit me up in game .
I would be willing to try to unite some pug groups. I don't have a leet personality, I'm not overly critical.
I believe mutual respect and group ideas go a long way towards fostering a productive positive environment where we either succeed or fail together as group. I'm not big on finger pointing, there is no I in team. I'm willing to delegate, a good leader is only as good as the people around him, a good leader only becomes exceptional because he has good people around him.
Everyone can be exceptional in a good way. A scout who dint get many kills but reports enemy troop movements is invaluable. Its putting all the little things together that make the big difference.
Everyone can contribute in some way, and no one contribution is greater then another, we will succeed or fail together, we learn together, we overcome together, as a team.
I will set up a raidcall channel in a few days when I get time, I work during the week and have to fit time in, but its doable.
I have some ideas I think would be fun, and I want it to be fun, no stress just do your best, I'm happy with it, you will never hear me berate or speaks towards anyone who paeticipates in any negative manner, I don't think that's productive and just hurts the overall effort, we just have to do the best we can with the cards we have and not expect the impossible.
I'll take in whomever wants to join, ill work with whatever guild wants to, I don't run any guild, but i do have leadership experience, and think I'm a pretty personable guy, I think we can get it done.
I know I won't convice everyone, in fact I'd be surprised if I convince 10 people, just know that those I do convice, your ideas matter, your contributions matter, no matter how small they may seem, they are not, they are just as important as any other contribution.
Our scroll came home today after ZoS fixed the lag (Although still a little lag).
You see! Not our problem!
DC is best and strong faction in Cyrodiil.

I got Ya back Man . Thanks for stepping up ! I was thinking anyone that wants to join Us just types DC in zone chat because this isn't another Guild it's a United front . I'll throw resources together to rally as many as I can .
I think you are also forgetting that a solid chunk, maybe 50% of players don't care about DC or any other faction winning. There is more incentive to farm as much AP and rank up as much as possible then there is in winning so people will stick to that, not to mention ganking, open field fighting, farming and just trolling your enemy is 100x more entertaining than seiging keep after keep after keep then taking some resources and repeat.
So please tell me, why should me or my guild and any others blindly follow someone we dont much care for, in zone ranting off about what we need to do to win? no thanks. If you think DC needs more leadership, get to it, but from my experience, attempting such a task and worrying about scrolls and score just makes you hate the game, and it gets boring. probably why so many leaders unsub.

There's still relavence here . Looked at the map this morning N drove straight to the psychiatrist office .

Nm is effective because they are good players who stay grouped and always follow the leader and people who don't want to follow the leader are kicked. Not because anyone is a jerk but because that is what makes them good. it doesn't sound like fear to me just smart guy that knows leading a bunch of casuals who don't want to use ts is a tough gig with poor returns for the effort.
