The only reason evo were beating laf in anw that set was because evo dropped and 5 members with two weeks left and farmed them while they had their stockpiles on hand and they continued to play turns. Laf actually won anw by less than had neither alliance dropped members.
But please continue to glaze over that fact for propaganda purposes. The theory that laf cant compete with evo in netgaining is highly entertaining.
Earthgraphs seems to disagree with you. 2 countries were detagged at or right before the 2-week cutoff date (09/21/11), and one country was detagged by its owner about 5 days after (and self-deleted about an hour later, with no hits from anybody). The other 2 countries that detagged were farmed by 2 other EVO countries (that I could see, earthgraphs is SLOW when it comes to old data) and the rest of the server as well.
The whole 2-week deal was put in place to keep last-minute detagging from taking place by the tag admin(s). The 2-week date was generally accepted by most of the server then.
Now, let's take a look at how many LaF countries detagged on or after 09/21/11:

7 countries detagged. LaF would have rightfully lost ANW.
Now, I would try to justify LaF's countries being detagged, but Earthgraphs refuses to load stats for each country for me, for some reason. And that won't do any good here anyways.

The only reason why Evo is even able to do anything is because other alliances feel sorry for them and let them because it's annoying to hear them whine all the time.
Everytime they get too big for their britches, other alliances will remind them of their place.
This vicious cycle repeats over and over again.
The only way LaF could "remind" Evo "of their place" is by breaking pacts and cheating. Sometimes simultaneously. Get some new material.
