Powerblocking in Round IX

[Fleet_Multiplex]

Well well, looks like the scaremongering by certain elements on this forum is paying off and blocks have/are formed/forming. Its now looking like NoS/HD/Rah/ND/hirr/ETY + ToT/Eclipse/Ely/WP/Sapentia with the sole intention of cooperating and destroying VOM, a mere 3 alliances compared to that onslought. In doing this they will be bringing in such large powerblocks which will most definately cause universal stagnation and boredom for those not within the blocks. If blocks are formed of this size it would be senseless, the only way we can have a decent round is if there are several smaller triads like VOM had tried to set the example but instead the weakness/pathetic play by numerous pa alliance hc is resulting in them grouping together the entire universe with the sole intention of taking out approx 300ish players.

Enjoy round 9.

[Ants]

Backfired now hasn't it.

[Al_zz]

Haha, that would be kind of funny if it were to happen.
Could happen though if MaViOly keeps up its end in this anoying propaganda war...

new alliance made by Discharge i believe

[Scouse]

But, but, but....

2 rights make a wrong!

(don't they?)



Seriously, I find it hard to believe that all of those alliances will cooperate against VOM. And even if they do I would say after a while they will start nibbling at each other and before long shall be wanting to get one over on the other block, and your lot shall be left alone. Much like round 6.

I agree, they will not work together against MaViOly but it would already be harmfull if they start sharing your most likely gal locations and agree to hit those primarily in stead of known locations of other alliances.

Surprised it took you this long to make your post about it or did Olympians Intelligence only just let ViruS know ? Though your claims of an uber block are slightly exagerated, several alliances you've added for effect have no relations.

You can't expect to try and take a bite at the universe and then have it not bite you back. After all Zeus did encourage the remaining alliances to team up and kill those trying to dominate the round by forming blocks. Do you really want sympathy now ? Everyone to say aww poor ViruS ? You've got what you deserve.

Sapentia is SilverBullet, Guran, Holylight, etcs new alliance.

oh please Hicks, do the world a favour and go back to your hole, crawl up and die a horrible death.

I hardly think he wanted them to form unseperable blocks though, as big as these.

Cry me a river.

Do you not think that any grand coalition against your attempts of universal domination has the ability to disband far easier than your little block ? They've set strict galaxy set up rules to allow another war after they've disposed of you and your cretins. How the hell are they going to stagnate the universe ? All their trying to do is stop your domination and good luck to them. If anything we'll see a rerun of Round 6 where those two blocks will smash yours then fight it out between one another allowing your block to make a come back.

You threw the first stone.

[Aneu]

Actually its not totaly formed yet... still working on that.

Someone was always going to have to. It's just a shame everyone else has to use them as a scapegoat for all the troubles of PA and use them to somehow justify their own blocks.

Whether you want to admit it or not, if it wasn't Oly/Virus/MC it would have been someone else. It just so happens this one was announced first.

[Hardin]

So if Fleet is right then what we have atm is

VOM vs NoS/HD/Rah/ND/hirr/ETY + ToT/Eclipse/Ely/WP/Sapentia

Seems some alliance HC have no sense of proportion!

I never knew VOM was that scareh :-)

Personally I believe that if these blocks are correct then the WEETS [Wolfpack, Elysium, Eclipse, ToT and Sapentia] block is by far the strongest looking block in the game

In fact with their numbers and quality I would go as far as say that they are a 'superblock' in the style of the old FLVTT and friends.

If the NoS/HD/RaH/ND/hirr/Ety block is also confirmed then I believe they will also pack a punch through sheer numbers alone...altho with RaH in there they may enjoy some level of competent leadership.

Where does that leave the rump of FAnG?

I think that a group formed of just WEE [Wolfpack, Elysium, Eclipse] could have been a great rival to VOM on their own...its sad to see that they have decided to play it safe and sign everyone else up also rather than go for a reasonably level playing field!

Me too. Everyone team up on them? *chuckle chuckle*

Their HC must be thanking their lucky stars for the VOM mistake of being known to the PA universe first.

Enjoy round 9.

So you create a group with 3 of the more stronger alliances and are then suprised when groups of smaller alliances get together in groups larger than 3 to take you on? Seriously....are you on crack, did you just think that PA would let you win the round hands down, because "forming a block bigger than 3 is not very nice".

Also it was nice of these groups to inform RaH of which block we were in and who we were working with. Perhaps those that organised things could be a little more considerate next time and actually let us know when we are placed with a particular group.

Btw you attempt at flagrant anti-anti-VOM propganda is very poor, I suggest you leave it people who are more experienced in these matters and who can at least disguise it slightly. Good try tho, 8 points for effort.

'EY WE ARE NOS YOU ARE RAH RECALL AT ONCE WE ARE ALLIED?!?!?!?!?'

que?

T'is the l33t intel machine theam, we lost our login and can't do any of these cute 'pull a rabbit out of hat'-tricks :/

[Aneu]

They are infact NOT in that order.

Neither will it be announced on the forum what they are.

VoM started this by allying before ANY block was even thought about, this round could have been the uprising for many alliances but with VOM it would be VERY hard.

All that i can say at this point is. The VOM block will be taken down, once that is done, the blocks will be disolved.

Umm smaller alliances?

WP?
Ely?
Eclipse?
NoS?

Lacking in quality?
ToT?
Rah?
FAnG?

They are all quality alliances with good size memberships - Any combinations of 3 would have been a fair challenge but all (+ others) on VOM?

Hehe - u make me laff!

and we await to see your master plan on disloveing the blocks who have 5 alliances in 1 galaxy flvt couldent do it, but I'm sure HD has a kicking way to do it.

Who are you trying to kid? Almost every alliance mentioned was looking for allies for round 9.

The VOM squad arived.

Actually VOM dimminished any hope of this round being a solo round for alliances, aswel as any other major alliances being made.

The fact of the matter is, VOM started this 'block war' and now they have to bite the bullet.

Why on earth would they need to disband their block ? The two blocks will simply fight one another, we're back to a three block situation which can only be good for the game.

What was it you and your friends told the whole universe in other threads ? Oh yea it was STOP WHINEING AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

You also make me laugh, you are clearly one of the ones who is refered to as having "l337 intel". Anyone that thinks NoS or Eclipse (don't know about WP/Ely tbh) could go head to head with Olympians or Virus is rather deluded (no offence to either of these) and ToT good sized membership? Besides the point was that VOM are alliances that posseses more 'quality players' than the others, especially Olympians.

Your arguement seems to be a-kin to getting 100 newbies in a room and pitting them against the top 100. Numbers would be the same, but thats about it. Are you anyone important btw or just another random wannabe propaganda-ist?

[Knight Theamion]

As u urself were in negotiations to block ur own alliance b4 VOM was announced I find it quite strange that you now claim that VOM 'started this block war'

Blocks would have happened anyway - they always do!

It is not blocks in themselves that are bad - it is the stagnation which results from one side having an almighty advantage over the other and then being so tied up in NAPS with each other all attacking stops.

If it is true that all the alliances mentioned above have blocked with the sole purpose of stopping VOM then I think that is a recipe for stagnation.

Obviosuly the HC of the various alliances involved in this so called 'uber-block' have lost all sense of proportion out of an unjustified fear of VOM!

Oh well!

Like Hicks said, it's a 3 way war. The round will shift a fair few times, with 2 on one side and 1 on another side, for the entire round. It just so happens that VOM get the beating first. You'll have time to recover. It will actually be bad for one block to do too well, since they will be teamed up on by the other 2.

The shared rooms are going to be great fun, I wish I could be allowed in them.

[Seth Mace]

I can't speak for the other alliances but VoM in our case signaled another round of blocking. Maybe it had to be some1 starting it off though, we'll never know what would have happened.

Afaik, some of those alliances grouped are not together.

And what makes VoM think those 2 blocks are gonna attack them first?

They a bit arrogant to think they are that important right?;P

Nope - I am not important - didnt claim to be! Since when do you have to be someone to post on here?

Second - I never directly said that ToT had a large membership altho I might have given that impression when I said all the above alliances have 'good sized membership' which clearly doesn't include ToT - I included them mainly because they have quality members who are a bit fanatical (remember laKetchup)

Third - as I have said in other threads simply because Fury disbanded and didnt have as an obvious successor (as Olympians was to Titans) everyone seems to assume that all these players have dissappeared. They haven't!

Titans/LDK/Virus didnt walk all over R8 - it was a tough fight. There QUALITY enemies haven't gone away they are in alliances like Eclipse, Sapentia - just coz no one has heard of them doesnt mean they are not good!

Finally numbers do play a more important role now - even the so call junior alliances are lot more professional than they used to be and can be employed effectively with good guidance/leadership in a block war!
