Congratulations #Reunion

Congratulations on your new rank!

Just like 1up and Exilition once did, a new alliance has taken the #1 spot.

Lets now see if you can keep it for the remaining weeks of this round.

good luck!

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

Well, Skyhead isnt really known as a character that provides stability, but on the other hand there are jupp and Legator for instance who are more than capable.

Im looking forward to see their progress over the next few days

You say that about skyhead but let's be fair. I doubt he could find another home for his BG this round. So he's naturally going to put all his efforts into making reunion as strong as possible. He's not stupid, if he wants his BG safe, and at the top, this is the best chance he's gonna have this round and he'll know it and make the best out of it.

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

Sometime wanting your BG safe doesnt mean that it makes the alliance that host you stronger, they might aswell NAP the entire universe for their own good, which is in no way making reunion stronger, the point being that what is good for the BG is not always good for the alliance.

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

I would say congratz but I dont think there is one deserved just yet.

I wil say congratz when they have kept hold of it for a few weeks not a few minutes.

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

well, congrats are just for those who deserves it, so, congrats LCH / Angels, they are sure doing nice, congrats ND, since I play PA, this is their best round, congrats f-crew and tades of fire, doing quite nice too, and mainly, congrats 1up as they have the best memberbase this round, I am afraid I'll finish here with no congrats to reunion, if it could be 500 ppl in one ally, what were they going to do ? merge with ND, later on LCH ? nah, forget about the noob questions

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

Reunion might have recruited themselves to #1, but imo if they manage to win the round, it will still be deserved. They got more work ahead of them than any alliance, and if they manage to pull it off, they definatley deserve the win.

The other alliances got enough time to push em down aswell, the round is far from over, and its still very open, with 4 alliances atm fighting for #1

I'm curious how the relationship between 1up and Reunion will be tho. As it is now, the top two alliances have a nap, which imo isnt a good thing. I see either LCH/ND going together or 1up/Reunion splitting up exciting

Talking Re: Congratulations #Reunion

I agree with you in some points u mentionend, but not all. In war there are no rules, imo you need to take/use every possible option there is to make the tides turns into your advantage. Even though this is a game, it's based on war principes, there are allies, blocks etc..every allie is trying to survive and work up to get that #1 spot, some alliances fight their way up, other alliances uses political solutions/strategy to achieve their goals. Doesent it reminds you of real wars in the past? this is how war's have to be played ,PA wise, imo.

Anywayzz at the end, there is only one thing that matters..VICTORY..and how you achieved (except cheating ofc) it is just a minor detail. Ofc if Reunion wins this round, they wont get a price or much respect for how they win it, but its cuzz they ended #1.

Fact is..Reunion is #1 atm and need to get pwnd

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

I agree with Murador, congrats are in order for several alliances this round. F-Crew and Tides of Fire are doing well by playing the game their own way and for the most part going it alone. Good job guys. 1up, New Dawn, and LCH have provided us with some excitement this round, good job fellas.

I have nothing against merging alliances or even recruiting your way to the top. Its part of the game and should be used to win if it can be. On a personal level I find it harder for an alliance to win with a smaller solid base of members rather than finding an alliance with enough room for their elite members and merging. Any alliance in the game can kick inactives and merge into another alliance. The honorable alliances will find a way to win without.

IF they have a nap (I simply don't know, haven't been following politics alot lately) then they will break it. I mean, last round we saw quite some of them complain about Angels not breaking the nap with exilition and forest contacted me and my command multiple times to negotiate how to take out exilition ...

Most likely the #1 alliance, since constantly hitting #2, #3 or #4 does not win you a round (except you are #1 yourself).
However, as already stated, the universe rather sees Spinner's cat win instead of 1up, so I am pretty confidet that we could even be ranked #5 alliance again and you would still continue to hit us.

It's not meant as whining but I ask myself how people can be so stupid and sacrifice #1 alliance rank spots just to bash 1up, as it happened last round. It is of course everyone's personal decision, but it is not what keeps this game alive.

Ultimately I think the major reason for most of the universe to hit 1up is basically the acknowledging of 1up's superior member core, and I primarily take it as a sign of fearing us and probably even holding grudges against us because we did not want to sign a nap with -insert ally name here- in order to keep the game somewhat enjoying. Thanks for so much respect for 1up, and so little for the game's community.

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

If I ran an alliance here this round I'd be concentrating all fire on 1up too tbh. However I'm not sure if I would of hit Exilition or 1up the previous one. While baldylocks is less attractive than crusie, he is also a lot less annoying

It would be arrogant if I'd deny others the same, which I do not do. Just this round, we were #1 alliance until Reunion recruited themselves into #1 spot, so I think I got a valid reason to claim superiority so far.
If Reunion wins in the end, or LCH, or ND, I will accept that they have been superior.

yeah thats fine.

I agree 1up has been the best alliance so far. But saying it in every post ya make isnt something that makes ya populare in the community.

I dont care, cause I am as arrogant if not more arrogant myself. But I think thats the main reason so many -dislike- 1up.

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

There are tons of reasons why pple "could" dislike 1up. I say pple cause I personally am not one of those (if you read my history of posting I'm generally in favour of 1up):

- You've won 2/3 rounds and doing well to win your 3rd.
- You've got the best memberbase (along with Exilition and Angels imo).
- Your command outplays any other command when it comes to politics.
- You've got some of the biggest AD trolls and dramaqueens ever seen (that's something I actually think aswell).
- Your PR works and pple do sometimes buy everything.
- The arrogance of the avg 1up poster (doesn't bother me, I know when it comes to arrogance I'd nicely fit in with the other 1up pple).

There are more I guess and I'm sure 1up might not agree with those reasons but it is how "some" pple "might" percieve 1up.

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

It tickles me how stupid wishmaster is when it comes to anything.
fact: majority of the people in top 100 this round, played just as hard last round.
fact: just because 1 person can sing and everyone else can't, does not make them good.
fact: in general, I can say about 20-30 people regularly post on AD. I hate %'s, but roughly, you/and (add 2 minons names here) make up about .05% of the pa community. That doesn't mean that what you say is gold. If so, I say you are shit. Now deal with it.

And having u thinking I am shit - well, for some reason I cant seem to care. sry.

U just seem like a bitter clueless/pointless troll.

Still the #1 alliance. If you always keep knocking back the #1 alliance there will be a long race for the top spot between more than 2 alliances. Otherwise it is running away with the round in an easy manner. This is probably also the reason why most alliances fail(ed) at becoming the #1 - focussing all their attention on 1up instead of going for the top spot.

Even though that might slightly change depending upon how close the race for #1 is. If my alliance is only 2 or 3 million score behind I am probably more up for going after easy roids and keeping a good strategical and political situation for as long as necessary before ganging up on the #1. However, seeing LCH and ND are both far behind Reunion, I fail to see why they would want to hit 1up right now (unless for holding grudges). Exception might be LCH as 1up and LCH are still fighting their little war which started before Reunion's recruitment stunt.

I fundamentally disagree with the belief that hitting the #1 alliance is automatically the sensible thing to do. Obviously it increases the alliance being hit's chances of winning the round - but that doesn't necessarily mean that it increases your own alliance's chances of winning.

Ultimately, to get #1 alliance rank, you have to beat ALL the alliances above you - and any close behind you, not just the alliance that is currently #1.

Note: I'm not necessarily saying that hitting the current #1 alliance is a bad idea - sometimes it is definitely the best bet for your alliance. What I'm disagreeing with the is the concept espoused by yourself and others, which appears to be that so long as you keep hitting whoever is #1 your alliance is somehow automatically increasing it's own chances of winning. That belief is naive and incorrect.

As I've already mentioned in a different thread, AD is bedevilled by posters with a very one-dimensional view of PA politics. There is rarely a simple choice between two alternatives - one of which gives a good chance of #1, and the other of which gives no chance. Sometimes, when faced between two options, one alternative gives the best chance of getting #1 while the second gives the better overall finishing rank for your alliance.

I can't criticise posters on AD too much for naivety in politics: it would be unfair when I suspect many alliance HC haven't actually clearly identified their own alliance's goal beyond a vague "do as well as possible". For example, how many alliance leaderships have decided where they set their limits when it comes to risking all for a shot at #1? Do they want to do everything they can to get to #1 - even if it risks the alliance getting totally trashed - or would they prefer a more conservative approach, whereby the likelihood of getting #1 is reduced but the risk of total ruin is largely eliminated?

I'd like to see PA politics move beyond the stage of "let's hit alliance X because they're doing well" to a point where alliances properly consider what's in their best interest. I've seen some political decisions made this round that, if properly considered, were very clearly not in the alliance's best interest.

One such example was Insomnia joining LCH+Hydra to hit 1up. Before you all start saying "well he would say that as he doesn't want 1up to be hit" you should ask yourself a few questions:

1. What would happen if they didn't assist LCH+Hydra? How would that help/harm Insomnia?
2. What would the likely outcome be of them helping LCH+Hydra. How would that help Insomnia?
3. What would 1up's likely response be to Insomnia's options - how would these responses help/harm Insomnia?

I used Insomnia as an example as they're no longer in contention for #1. I'm not suggesting they've made the only (or worst) political decisions this round. And I'm NOT going to explain in detail why I think their decision was wrong: but a consideration of the questions posed above should lead to at least some understanding of why I think it was a bad move by them (and no, it's not that 1up are petty and will refuse to cooperate with someone who has attacked us - I'm not that short-sighted plus Insomnia did us a favour by attacking us, even though unintentionally).

of course you wouldn't understand my post as every other word you write is abbreviated or shortened, in a manner that exposes that you don't use your brain to its full capacity (or do you) when reading/writing. But I don't count that against you. People who say that they "don't care" normally actually do care.
Another amazing revelation is that someone actually posrep'd me for calling you shit. that means, somewhere, somehow, someway, you have proven yourself to be shit to someone besides me.
How this relates to the topic? GG #Reunion

Plus you always have to keep in mind that PA is at least until now a continuous game and that sometimes the community/the alliances treat you according to the actions you undertook during the round before.

That's up to every HC to decide. We all know that 1up HC is taking the game very serious. Not everybody is that ambitious - and I am glad about it (plus it gives you a better chance of winning).

Setting limits is narrowing your room for decisions. No matter how well you prepare for this final question in the end the circumstances surrounding you at that time will play a dominant role and the best limit/rule you set upon yourself may not be applicable.

But then again those decision usually add some spice to the political landscape. It makes a round more unpredictable which sometimes means more fun.

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

I agree with Sid in the respect that the pa politics can tend to be flat; there is little consideration for underlying politics. Ie, most people, particularly on AD, are busy accusing or claiming things so that their alliance look politically favourable to the rest of the pa populus. There is a lot of propaganda on AD, as their should be (note: war game), but I think Sid is pointing to the fact that alliances should become more self-involved and start fighting for themselves, with solid, 'chess-like' political manouvres that benefit their own alliance.

Yes, this is taking the game seriously, but we are talking majorally about the alliances towards the top end of the table. The further down you go the more 'fun' players have (which is absolutley fine).

If I were Reunion HC, right now, with the situation like it is, i'd be worried. Mainly because there is more attention right now focused on Reunion than any other alliance. Imo, more than 1up. So would people rather see 1up plummet down le table? Or would they rather Reunion fall. It comes down, at the moment, to who the alliance dislikes the most. That is who they will target. What Sid is trying to say, is why target an alliance for the sake of it, when it doesnt benefit you at all. Ie, switch on to the priorities around your universal rank.

Personally, Id have to agree with another point he makes: Id target below AND above, to obtain and maintain the best possible rank for my alliance.

But maybe thats why im not HC

Re: Congratulations #Reunion

people in positions of authority in PA alliances, generally have the habit of getting tunnel vision. they come into a round with a pre-concieved "bad guy" and they set their sights on that particular alliance, and regardless of who does what, they tend to wait too long to realize who the enemy really is. I've seen this happen for a lot of rounds, Including this one.
