If an alliance starts grabbing power atm, its going to scare other alliances into moving agianst it. And there is still roids to be had just hitting parras in raids. The alliances that are starting to move up and take leads etc will eventually force a war for ranking, but that is still not upon us.

I guess the answer is yes it has alot to do with it being solo, but not because people are nervous without allies. Just that the ramification of making moves at a time when lots of alliances are sitting around waiting for something to happen might be pretty harsh.
