The 1 year war

its a secret shhh

but ill chcuk you on the waiting list, im sure mines definately not outta your league, or any1's tbh

[semper]

some of the reasons on that list made me lol. You make the mistake of giving $$ spenders who buy awesome accounts to make themselves good.. the title of a 'good player' or the best fighter..when I assure you had they spent no $$ like the rest of us... they'd be nothing special at all.

It's a rookie mistake... and ya hate to see it. You do....

What makes you think that spending $ and being a good fighter are mutually exclusive?

i dont mean to sound narky but can this thread pleeeeeease not trun into another $$ no $$ argument. its my thread. i dont personally use $$ as i feel you get a beter sense of achievement without it. that said, people who use $$ is their playing style. if say odji went and spent loads of $$ im sure he will stll be a skilled player.

so can the $$ argument stay outta here. its not relevant.

I don't think. I know.

Because you buy the top notch account to get a massive advantage over others and you then build up any margin of skill with that advantage that you've gained by cheating. The $$ reduce the need for concern of losses and naq and it will greatly effect your playing style without you having to have built and worked your way up.

It's not a difficult thing to grasp. These oh so great fighters are only so great because they have their massive advantages that they've bought. Strip any of them of those $$ bought advantages, put them in the same account and put them up against Buck for example.. and they'd have their assess handed to them every time without a shadow of a doubt.

It's just get newbies coming a long who see JT and Qacol running around with these massive $$ bought MS's and duel planets and they get their assess handed to them and think.. "wow! They're a great player"... when in actual fact. It's very likely simply not so.

Out of respect for Solmyr.. I won't post any more on the issue.

well should there be enough omissions to get him on time will tell. now i dont rate myself highly at all but i know a good fight and a good sport. i wil certainly be giving feedback as to who of these characters truly are good fighters and good sports and who are not

thank you for the heads up the cakes

[~Coyle~]

Excellent idea mate, ill gladly take part.
I'll await my turn

[solmyr]

once i get a fair amount of confirmations from those i named as my starting line up i will put them into a hat (or other device) and will have an order, i will name a start date when ready.

the rules will be open to some negotiation, i will release the opponent a month in advance,(so 2 opponents) and we can neg b4 the beggining

rules will be

- i WILL request a personal nap with your alliance empire for the week of our vendetta
- minimum rebuild def (negable size)
-minimum 1 full size MS build
- tries to organise 1 onliner at least (may be hard with schedules i understand)
- posts in this thread for war
-no officers/CO
- no alliance
- no planets
- no ascended

(There is a possibility that for some of these, i may be able to get a friend and have 2v2's if one would like to organise that they would have to speak to me)

- basically i just want me v you in mains army v army MS v MS and a great time and experience. this is also an epic learning curve for me so i would ask all opponents give advice to me throgh the wars we have on how to better my style. by the end i hope to be a recognisible war machine with skills that are paralleled only by few. hope it all works

[harchester]

sure no problem hit me up when your ready

[Sir Balor]

so you lol\'d. well prepare for war. oh and some of your alliance mates might get hurt because of you

successful troll was successful

I beg to differ. I have fought against Q. when his MS was decent but not nearly close to the biggest MS at that time. Having an online battle with him was a pleasure and he did stand his ground against an opponent with a bigger MS.

I have never fought against JT, but I have heard that the same applies to him.

So no Semper, you do not know but pressume. And as often you are wrong with your assumption


Good choice for opponents Solmyr, as you can learn a lot from your opponents

[tsukuyomi]

[Duderanch]

Sure, hit me up when you ready
