Bling

When do we start and is it any good?

Can't copy paste atm but me. Stormy. aka Chade's bitch.

Dont worry TBL... no fecker is evil enough to be part of evil so its me vs the good twats again -_-

Still a few more weeks of this era to go. You have all fallen into my trap and now I will spring the event of events that will crush good twats once and for all!!! mwahaha *bling bursts into tears at evil farmers

Balance the kd's this time.
Start with the players who are dedicated mages, make them kd leaders and vices, then do the rest, so both kd's have a balance on mages.
Leave the farmers off the list, and let them join as and when they apply. Neither kd needs them. Fighters and active players u can randomize, but randomizing the entire list wont work.

I wouldn't worry too much about it, Terence. I think Barny and a couple of others have somehow or rather got things sorted out for next round. At least, that's what I read in the G v E Round 5 thread anyway.

Sorry for the long Barny style post, I havent even proof read it as I couldn't be fucked.

Ali said he was going to be quite inactive and logs only from his phone. Also he didnt do too much for the outcome of the war despite what stats say. He killed evils rebuilding core which had 1 player (To my knowledge) that could actually throw together a force that should have been able to compete.

Last era we weren't prepared for era end (Evil didnt tell anyone that they were casting arma and we were a tiny bit surprised when they did as a small group of us still had our armies alive. a loss was inevitable though) So that was the biggest issue. As you would have read it was simple sorted into an odds and evens. I spoke to a few people about how to balance the odds/evens with only a handful of transfers. The problem is many people didnt put their names down. I still think the teams looked pretty even just evil had no organisation and we/I took advantage of it. And frankly if it wasn't for bling I would have done a shit load more damage oop (Well done sir).

We didn't actually have too many people that attacked, Aussie and Hartmut were my relief halfers that attacked on day 5 or 6 followed by Hanky (who started  pretty late) woodeh later attacked I think around day 9 or 10.  Skeeter was attacking from just out of oop kept getting bounced by Stewie but it kept him tied up so he helped me. Archi core dropped oop but was quite inactive during protection so he died really quickly and with Binh he got 2 nice plunders on cheesy and maged early era until about day 11 or something. Slade maged from oop and shyers joined him around day 6. And really they were all that did the work. Chade (And binh)  came in with the game finishing army which has killed their biggest armies (Organised). I had people ready to fight oop core drops (one of which actully landed in our core but stupid Zoe told him to wreck his city, people like Binh and I would have killed to have that sort of pes growth as a halfer oop in a core drop)

I think one of the biggest problems was bran was their only dedicated active mage. When I took him out evil really started to crumble. I was able to kill cheesy with naz and gaia and  severely cripple 3 or so other evil players to the point they were near useless for the rest of the era and then pretty much hurt everyone besides stormy, von darkmoor and bling. because I was able to naz raid their core untouched with as many naz as I liked.


Pretty much a tl;dr evil lost not so much because of quality or activity of players. More because of a lack of organisation vs good who I had organised the fuck out of (No way was I going to lose 2 GvE eras in a row!). Before era I had told people I wanted them to attack on these days etc etc.  We also set up the only blocker points oop incase we failed our oop plans. Ideally we need two of the games best strategists/leaders on either side.




I did find it incredible hard to organise as people just wouldn't listen. So thats one of the bigger problems we will always be faced with in GvE. I know some people don't like the idea of ranking people in groups but I think it needs to be done. So I believe a few of us need to get in a skype channel together and discuss this. GvE is dieing however as many of us are growing bored with it and I think I actually told a few people this current era would be my last GvE era (I have since changed my mind).

Edit for accidental double-post

i volunteer as a vice, but rather not get involved in making teams or being the figurehead leader

Don't want to lead, Ryan and Bran are good for those.
I just want it balanced to the point that each team has a core of 5 to 10 players who the leaders of the kd are made aware as being their key players. The reason I ask for this is because Bran had the same issues in that he requested blockers to be placed, and that was ignored because players figured someone else would do it, or just were active or bothered.
I'd prefer those who cant be arsed... stares evilly at Osi... take your names off the list, so we know who can be arsed and we can play accordingly.

Do we have a guesstimate on when the new era is going to start??

Don't forget the scouts or those in op!

I guess I can come back and play next era after having this one off. Still use my phone a lot to play during the day tho. 

We should really get together guys and discuss teams. We will be casting arma soon. I wont to be atleast discussing it before we cast.

I've beeeeen ready to cast.
