That's comical

This is not the same game we were playing although it resembles that. Plus how much more cheating did you guys get away with under the fluffty oversight? Would you have actually set any so called 'records' if your cheating was caught? We will never know and can never prove it, but believe that the perception of the community is that it wasn't legit and in the end that is what counts. Doesn't matter how many of your precious 'records' you hold if no one believes you earned them ;)

Thats like being a straight A student while attending L.D. programs. How many answers did they give you?

Now that's comical!

Ford, the stats are different in this game so comparing the stats is foolish. You had earth2025's tnw record apparently and laf has EE's. On a side note even not trying you should be able to get 75mill+ after a bad set of not trying :P as long as you play all your turns anyways or most

The old records blew these #'s away, because NW's were a lot higher (military, Tech etc were worth more NW)

AND there were like 600 players in some alliances (RAGE!)

Finally did the signature thing.

We has higher nw units, u had ghost acres

either way, I can't net worth a fluff, I've never broken 40mill nw, so I don't care all that much, but dismissing records for various reasons is kinda lame

NA does hold the 2025 EC TNW record
NA holds most top 100's in a single set for 2025 EC as well
NA has more winning top 1's than any other clan in 2025 EC
NA has the NW record of a country, with 872 million NW
thats across 4 years of the EC/UM server, compared to 4 sets of EE

in EE we have finished TNW ranked 1, 2, and 3, and warred the 4th set

our ANW has gone 19m -> 24m -> 32m, in order for the 3 sets we've netted, so i do believe that shows consistent improvement

we also have more members right now than any other clan in this game

I find it funny that people keep comparing between the old 1A, EC, and EE. Each game are obviously different.

What matters is the set we're in, right?

And as for the 19m --> 24m --> 32m ANW improvement...... :/

it is quite obvious the cheating that was going on back in E2025 within NA. Anyone that dismisses so, is probably just llaar or mrford, or their other alter egos.

But we should all ignore what happened in E2025, this is EE, a new thing.

So it's quite obvious that there were cheating going on within NA in the past few sets within EE, even llaar admits it now, but denys anymore of it going on now.

Wait, so what's different?

na in alliance, has never condoned, nor actively cheated. So lol at ur post. Get ur facts strait

They were caught once, mainly in FFA, and the Devs dealt with the situation.

Let's just let it go. If they get caught again; then we can talk, but for now let's just let it go.

The main difference between 1a and ec was the turn change, ec had alot more turns per reset, but outside of that there was hardly any changes, except a moderating team who's tools to find multies were useless and had to be given evidence in rediculous amounts of detail before they would delete anyone.

ya...

we should take a poll and see what people think about the 2 vs 3 turns per hour thing.
I personally preferred 2 -- made you use your turns smartly and the wars were WAY better.

All the wars on this server are super lopsided and that's not cool.

the FS advantage thing, theres some long posts on B&S about how to reduce the impact but changing turn counts is one of the simplest

one i dont think was mentioned is that killing down could take a lot more turns than killing up again

it didnt really let the losers catch up but all wars kind of levelled out after a while and you probably didnt have any where near as many tag kills or multiple tag kills as you do these days

I like the more turns,

to kill the fs advantage, instead of changing the frequency of turns, just change the level of onhand turns. Up stored turns, and lower onhand turns

moving turns from active to stored will be detrimental to new players who want to play all their turns when they want to.... and it will make people have to log in more often.

on that note, i'm not opposed to that, and also telling new players that alliance is the "elite server" where you need to put in the extra levels of effort.

The order of difficulty to play a server, IMO is... (easiest to hardest)
Primary
Tourney
Express
Team
Alliance
FFA

i'd be interested to see how others rank them as well :p

ffa hard? you can win ANW as a solo tag if you want to, it almost looked like someone could do that in team even for a little while

there is another option i havnt seen discussed much

a hard cap on attacks per day like the spy cap, that way you can allow turns to be run for normal countries, but limit the effectiveness of storing then frontloading all turns for country in a war

in 24 hours now you can get over 252 turns and do about 108 hits, more if you missile or run down readiness

even a cap of 50 attacks in a 24 hour period would make a differance to first strikes, if not on the second day then at least on the third

i meant that more as difficulty to play at an average level or at least to play and have a good time... not how easy it is to win if you're awesome :p

you forgot a server there bobby

and enshula... yea you can do well as a solo tag FFA if you know the right people for not getting your tag pwnd and don't piss anyone off.

FFA is definitely the hardest to win. top slot is very much sought after and you're competing with a bunch of people that know how to make ridiculously huge countries and have been doing so for years

With ffa for bobby's rankings it just depends how much you want to be focused on 1 country, and not all 16. Most above average players could probably finish t10 in FFA if they focused only on netting with 1 country and did all the self farming/ fa chains that they can muster up. Of course the t10 cuttoff in ffa is still pretty darn high, but with some general netting knowledge/skill and a lot of free time it shouldn't be too hard.

i'd put alliance at the top for difficulty to win since you only get one shot at it and the competition as to who runs great countries is better here. And I like 3 turns not 2. I'd say the more turns a day the more popular your game will be with FB masses.
