VUs Greatest Players

Maybe someone should create a thread in the hangaround titled: "VU's Greatest Players". Then everyone can have their say in a more.... civilised manner... :P

However, regardless of the criteria for "all time greatness", I personally think that Random, as one of the current form horses of the game, is at the moment, a top 10 player. And Crissxcross is certainly very very good as well (as the players in the last era of Dark Blood can testify, LOL!).

If there is any "all time great" still playing at an obvious "top 10 level" this era (IMHO), it has to be Binh...

Let's get the list going

1) Binh


23:51:34 Oct 31st 09 - Lord Stewie Griffin:

1) Binh

2) TBL <3


03:11:13 Nov 1st 09 - Sir Hammy The Squirrel:

Ademo.... he's definitely a great player.


05:22:34 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Crashandburn:

Sloth is likely top 10.


06:40:44 Nov 1st 09 - Sir Gingerbread Man:

1) Binh

2) TBL <3

3) Ez <3


07:17:42 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Zek Late Start:


 I think at times it 50% strategy 50% luck ....You can have the best tactics in the world and if luck is not on your side you will fail . But Part of that luck is everything from the people in your Kingdom to a win with 20% chance or loss at 90% .   Yes your strategy can be to create some of that luck ...but in the end it is still luck .

My list of players that have left an Impression on me as amazing players either in politics or combat and some in both . (and some because of pure tenacity) 

Hanky
Arch Shade
Epyon
Quite One
Kobuskan
Mr.Anderson
Hkxxxooo
Resistance
Lord Wraith
Kayn
Lord Bongs
Nova

there are more but i just got to lazy to type more.
 
 ....and how do you tell who is a better player ?  by how well they do when they are in a kingdom that is doing well or how well they do when the chips are down and they are on the ropes ? .  I have seen all of the players Listed take down more than there share wile going out swinging . 




07:47:21 Nov 1st 09 - Sir Uther Pendragon:

I fully agree with this list, and quite frankly i havent seen Bongs in a long time.

My first era was under him and Sanoh in Drug Lord.

Him Sanoh and Blaze taught me the basics and pretty much taught me how to create my own strategy. Hes (Bongs) not only a good player but a good teacher.

Really i think the best player is easily determined when they are at their worst. When everything is against them.

How they compose themselves in attitude, strategy, and leadership in such a position is what determines them. Me, i've never really been one for luck until here recently and thats never kept me down. Thats one thing that i took from Blunts.

I remember the first era i played OOP our core was destroyed yet he urged everyone to move back and regroup.

Next thing we knew we were dominating The Guals on Zetemania and had the map under our control. He could take dog crap and make it into lemon juice and thats what stands out for me from Bongs.


08:39:29 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Royal Flush:

Sorry but this thread is obviously going to fail, especially when people are talking about Lewatha and Kobuskan as top 10
No offence to them, but just no.

If we are talking about the current top 10 players, imho something like this.
[In no particular order]
Down to previous performances in the last 3-4 eras

1.Binh
2.Rox
3.Bogdan
4.Qassim
5.Scotty
6.Von Darkmoor
7.Ez
8.Brashen
9.Nova
10.TBL

This is by FAR, the most accurate list in this thread so far
Also, this thread is going to end up filled with noobs who know nothing about vu posting stupid lists with people like Chavez just because he won this era
Also, I know some idiot is going to say Im one of them noobs
Sure w/e Faggots.

Offence taken, thx rev

Im not saying your a bad player Kob, your pretty good, your just not in the league of the players I have in my list.


08:44:16 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. The Bear Jew:

dont worry, rev knows nothing. youre a good player in my eyes :)


08:53:52 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Royal Flush:

Also, quite soon this thread will be invaded with arguments
And total retards
Oh look Bran you've showed up early.

10:34:24 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Zek Late Start:


 i have only played Since era 29 , my list is a personal one ... i did not do math on victories , captured cities , Land Size and Era wins . I think that is most obvious . 

          Everyone's list should be different unless they have some "sheep following the herd" mental disorder . Opinion will be based on personal experiences . 

     Now lets see some hard math ! i want actual numbers ! 

           


11:08:58 Nov 1st 09 - Archangel Argyle:

someday, I wish I would open one of theese threads and see my own name somewhere.

why don't we do this serious! Beeing the greatest one we must consider all sides of the game, not only the highscore.

heres a list of qualities that makes one the greatest, rate from 0-10 points for each quality:

  • Leadership/politics
  • Farming
  • Warfare
  • Magic
  • Paytoplay benefits
  • Friends (it do matters)
  • Roleplaying
  • Smart use of game mechanics


11:42:23 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Johnny Rotten:

Im the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be. So shut it fools and stop annoying my breakfast or i'll find you and kill your pets!


11:59:31 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Tyrgalon:

taking the era winners for greatest players is fail...many of them have just been the biggest farmers, its easy to farm in a kd that keeps you safe.

Just thought I would point out, that Noa was actually #2 a couple of eras ago, but did not troop spam at the end and TBL won (Even that era, he posted she deserved it) and she did not play last era :P  So you can make fun of her all you want, but Noa is a d@mn good player


16:19:42 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Ezatous:

I'm surrounded by morons.


If you haven't played this game for 5 or so years, you don't deserve to be making any list. Because you know nothing. Get off my game.

Your surrounded by morons? Maybe its time for a new Kd. :p


17:17:48 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Ezatous:

Maybe I should send an application into BoW, so I can be surrounded by "greats"? ;)


17:22:30 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Arthur Dent:

LOL! Man you need to know how to interoperate people's comments.


17:34:31 Nov 1st 09 - Duke Drakos:

Application Denied!!

Ezatious, You wouldn't measure up. Your overall honor and courage are sorely lacking. I doubt you would even know what to do in an small-keep fighting against all odds kd. Your the type that needs to be surrounded by many-many players to protect you as methinks you cannot handle true adversity.

Ezatous is not Ezatious...

These threads are like extracting an ice core to find out the history of VU, only problem is, is that it`s an ice core of stupidity, as Drakos, Karac and the rest of the body of unknowns prove quite clearly.

I meant Ezatous, typed in an old ruler name by accident.


17:44:05 Nov 1st 09 - Duke Drakos:

And as an aside, my vote goes to Roxbury.  I can admit people in other Kd's have game skills, unlike some I can think off.


17:48:10 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Ezatous:

You keep your names because you seem to be of the opinion, and under the illusion that you are somebody worth recognising, i.e, you posess an overbearing level of self worth.

While we, who operate in reality, think otherwise. As this thread shows. Outside your little circle-jerk of BoW scrubs, or sucker-upers from KDs we've never heard of, you're considered to be nothing. A nobody. An unknown.


Get off my game pls.


18:02:06 Nov 1st 09 - Sir Jungleboogie:

why does every1 talk so much shit on these forums? give it a break. use the thread to list 'personal oppinions' on who are the best players or fuk off. It's simple realy. Stop messin up Stew's topic! Get 'em Stewie! :0


18:06:22 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Orcinus Orca:

guys i think we should talk about the best 10 players since in the most recent of eras i would say that would be frm the era of kob, to this era.

in that list some great players i think, like rox ,ezatious and sloth shudnt get a mention although i would say thay are great players, beter than me atleast, cos they'v nt been as successful as they were in the past.

in no perticular order

1- random - twice i played with him both times best player in my kd.

2- hanky - a great & successful leader PERIOD.

3- qassim - always up ther with the best in every catagory.

4- bogdan - i thought he was best player last era with most kills n fights n all.

5- dargoth - wasnt his biggest fan when he used to land drop in retribution n all bt he has proved he's a strong player yet again this era

6- binh - iv personally nt seen much frm him this era bt heard lost of gd stuff.

7- jones - was very strong this era by any1's standards,

8- nova - another solid performance this era, i have been and stil am 1 of his biggest fans.

 9 & 10 -  leav those empty cos i think iv forgot 1 or 2 players so some1 else can finish off for me


18:08:21 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Crissxcross:

Well, I  am not sure whom to vote, I would prefere to vote no1, because there are many good players and mostly activity is the difference between just good and very good.

But if I have to say a name, I would say

Binh

for playing this game so many era long on a high level :b


18:39:09 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Ezatious:

Having a go at Swifty saying he is unable to hold against all odds really is quite laughable. Do you know where he played?  The amount of kingdoms he's had to fight against and yet still prevailed many times over. You might want to research a bit the person you are arguing with before you make a fool out of yourself.

/the real eZ :)

 So you can make fun of her all you want, but Noa is a d@mn good player

Noa is a top 10 player at ANY TIME she is playing actively.

Revenge, Kobuskan is merely hampered by activity issues (he cannot log in from work). If he were allowed to log in from work, and is able to play actively and effectively, I personally rate Kobuskan as a top FIVE player in the game.

Also, re Binh.... in another thread, when I mentioned that Binh was the only "all time great" playing at a "top 10 level", I meant only for this era :P If we were to take a list of the overall top 10 players over the past few eras, I might have to ponder about his inclusion into the list as he has not performed very well in the past few eras before this :P (this is all said with the greatest of respect for Binh <3 - I consider him to have one of the most complete skillsets in the game, and the best player from that bunch of Dark Blood / JUICY rabble :P :P)

Anyway, regardless of what is the criteria to be greatest, top 10 level, most uber leet of all time, blah blah, yada yada (everyone views their own penis through a different lens anyway... *cough, pardon ladies *cough*), I would say that it would be a blessing for most kingdoms to have most of those generally listed (whether by Karac, by Revenge, by Swifty or by others) as one of their kingdomates. Hey, I would love to have them on my team if possible... it would make my gaming life alot more easier and we can kick more ass together then <3

Ofc theres always myself too.


23:28:32 Nov 1st 09 - Sir Penguinus Prime:

Mhm... cant say anyone is doing anything spectacular. But for now i would say Noa is the main thing :)

1. Noa
2. Gingy (Ben) getting better and better :)
3. Kobu  like always universal player always doing good
4. Qassim and Bogdan :)
6. Other fags who are doing something good.... now thats all


23:39:01 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Hanky Panky:

Its always hard to make lists like these some people don't get noticed or get to play to their full pottential like me also

Top ten no order

Me
Random
Ping/bling bob
Tbl
Kobuskan
Sprout
Gingerbread man
Nova

I've sat starring at my phone for past hour can't think atm but there is obviously lots of other people who are great and worth mentioning ofcourse

And I didn't want to mention people who aren't playing but people like sloth aligreat auspice cbobra fordius etc etc are up there


23:42:24 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Hanky Panky:

Edit; add gladiator to the list and arche shade


23:59:23 Nov 1st 09 - Mr. Lover:

ill take sloths list and add a few of my own. IE. Ponsa, SoB, Tobleronx, Jeoren, Sparker, Tazz, CC, Goek, , Nimic (uber whorer), Lord Paul, Swampfot, i suppose i could throw in an adelbert or a baka :p

 

Sloth's list is missing a couple of other very very strong players (IMHO) - Kobuskan, Crissxcross, Jonathan, Greg, Trogdar, Adakis, Von Darkmoor, Scottology, Bogdan, Noa, Random, Penguinub, Dargoth, Bling, Sprout, Gladiator, Gladiatorul.... (and several others that I cannot recall atm :P). 

Also, the newer top flight players need to updated in: Ben, Adam, Carina, David... (and possibly some folks that I am not familiar with :P).


00:11:07 Nov 2nd 09 - Dark Prince Stirlin:

i see you sneaked your name in tbl :)


00:13:24 Nov 2nd 09 - Mr. The Born Loser:

LOL! Feel free to check that old thread to confirm whether my name was sneaked in or not :)

Personally, I'd rather not be on any "great" list.... that way, my opponents can underestimate me, and that would allow me to execute my strategies and intentions more easily.... :)


00:18:27 Nov 2nd 09 - Prince Charley The Kitten:

I would have thought that "VU's Greatest Players" would be just that...its "greatest" players and not just adding on ever eras good players.  That basically means that 1/3rd of VU is going to be on this list...the exclusiveness of this "list" or w/e is not very high it seems...I'm not saying that any of the players mentioned are bad, but some have only played a couple eras and now are the greatest?


00:23:19 Nov 2nd 09 - Mr. The Born Loser:

1/3rd of VU? I thought it was more 1/100, LOL....

Anyway, different people will have different interpretations of the meaning "greatest", will have different qualifying criteria, and will have encountered different people in different forms in their playing careers. That does not mean their list is in anyway less "qualified" than mine or yours.... it is all up to them to post who has made the deepest impression on them as "greatest"....


00:32:12 Nov 2nd 09 - Mr. Dakarius:

I'm not on sloth's list...knew I shouldn't have left :(
