What I didn't understand was 'the only reason WP came back' logic (which is bollocks).
Why should any alliance want to come back? Why did eXilition come back in round 18? Because it thought there wasn't much competition? No. It really doesn't matter why they wanted to come back, it has nothing to do with your real (shit) point.

Namely, that we should care if WP (especially) win a round. WP winning would not be a sign that the game's gone to the dogs. It's all a delicate balance. I'm not saying WP have always made the best strategic decisions in the past, but it doesn't mean that they couldn't (and wouldn't have deserved to) have won.

It's worth emphasizing that WP in membership and character are different now to what they were several rounds ago. They're also placed in a different alliance situation. Judging them by what they did one or two years ago is a fool's game.

Not to mention the fact that WP have been winning midround before, and rounds are rarely decided on the (not such a high number)nth week, so why this is an issue now (unless you seriously think alliances are going to proactively go for WP on account of this logic, haha) I don't know.

Stop talking nonsense.
With some of your post I agree, ironically, a few things you should apply to yourself, when it comes to being receptive to my initial meaning. Like:" you're so caught up in your own thoughts." Are you seriously portraying that you don't think there is a difference to playing for the win, and we can finally win? There is. Now, maybe if one of your bum buddies said it, you would agree. Look past the poster and use that god given brain of yours.
No, I am not in WP's head. I know only a few things. They suck. They always have sucked, and they always will suck. They retired their sucky alliance, and now, with a weakened player-base, and a handful of lackluster has-beens dancing the night away in ascendancy, they come back suddenly. BECAUSE THEY THINK THEY CAN WIN. Now add "finally" right between "can" and "win" and you should see my point.
The card game analogy was pretty straight forward though. I guess "cognitive" is the word of the day because you really need to exercise your excellent cognitive capacity that your mommy nursed and molded for about 18 years(Unless you are younger than 18, or still being nursed by mommy).*




*These little things don't help my point, nor do they help readers understand. They are there solely to give me the advantage with an idiotic reply.
