So, Destiny i think are as good if not better than CT, but not a proven force, plus it will obviously take time for them to gel, get to know the right formulas etc.
NewDawn imo will win the round, theyve been close on many occasions, with imo the distinct lack of quality in PA these days, i think the established core of ND will win, aslong as their fruitcaked brained HC don't ruin it for the players that have tried on many occasions, only to be let down by their HC
Therefore: CT = Will disband within 2 round due to too many big ego's. Spy galore and big headed players wanting more than CT can offer them, also the ammount of egocentrical players in their i expect very little defence as many ppl will be 2 fleeting and keeping one home to run incase of FC.
Destiny - Good solid players, proven players, will take time for them to reach their best and for Destiny to find the right formula, therefore not this round, but look out for them.
NewDawn - Finally win a round, HC made a few bad decisions along the way, but they scraped over the line!
Top5 =
NewDawn

Thank you for amusing me for the nite. Dont suppose your a member of Destiny by any chance? But anyway. CT is full of big egos? By that do you mean experienced HC staff, experienced officers and of course more importantly members that have bin in winning alliances before and know what it takes to win? To me thats an alliance full of skill and dedication, not big ego's. Destiny.. i cant comment on them as i havent heard anything about them at all. No advertisement on the forums other then in this thread. But your description about them amuses me, as to me CT is exactly the same.
Now.. the ND bit in your speech. I agree i would like to see ND win. Due to the fact they have played many rounds. They deserve it. They always fight hard, especially last round. And i dont care what anyone say, them joining the war against exi in the last 2 weeks was a turning point in the round. So i think i would love to see ND win this round. (round 20) But what anoys me is how you claim they can only win due no other 'quality' alliances left to fight them. This seems to be said through out this thread. Is there no sense of the word 'respect' these days? Last round they played brilliantly, and i think their HCs made great decisions. So please either get your facts right, or dont post about other alliances with crap intel.
I think CT will win, with ND Second. I would rather see ND win, but based on the quality that CT possess (and no im not sucking up, i just state what i see, and they have good players/command team) they will win the round.

Are any of those above actually HC's btw? Or is this you again guessing at intel with no facts what so ever?

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
lol some CT players coming on to flame?
Yes i think big ego'd HC ruin alliances, its happened b4 and i can see it happening again.
I wasn't around during 1ups reign of power, but afaik mazzellar, bashar and zhil were HC? correct me if im wrong!
What has my post done to say im Destiny, i haven't even said they will win the round, ive said ND will, so again, shhhhhhhhh
And most alliances have been disrespected on this thread because they deserve it, most alliances aren't half as good as they used to be, but people blame it on set up, the only superpower to have played since Jolt took over PA imo is eX, no other alliances deserves to be named it.
Most alliances these days aren't half as equipped, dedicated, professional or skill wise even close as the likes of Fury, ViruS, Legion or Xanadu etc are, and thats down to the fact there are very little people willing to put time and effort into it. Spies are everywhere, dated tools, and crappy propoganda and decisions. flame me if im wrong, but im not here to make friends so i really couldn't give two shits

First of all, you know absolutely nothing about Conspiracy Theory, it's memberbase, it's HC, or it's intentions/goals. Only what you see on a gaming forum.
I have by far the biggest ego on the CT HC, and I'm mild in comparison to a lot of HC's in this gaming community, as for the rest of our HC, they are all knowledgable, analytical, and respectable players who have earned their positions in this alliance from their past performance. Not 1 of them can be described as an "egomaniac" or anything close.
We are certainly confident in the team we've put together, and with good reason. We have a team of proven winners, and we have built for not only round 20, but the future as well. It is our intention to play the highest quality of PA, to play winning PA, and to provide each of our members the tools and support to be successful.
Instead of spouting off like you actually know something about us and making a complete ass of yourself, maybe you could have asked, so you actually had some information from which you could base an informed opinion from.
Yes, we expect to do well, we expect to be successful... if we didn't, what would be the point?
You operate from the assumption that CT, it's members and Command staff, or anyone here has made a comparison to any of the "old school" power houses of PA. They have not. as for CT, we haven't launched a fleet. We haven't proven anything. We certainly don't expect any undeserved respect or accolades.
edit: spelling

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
Thats a great propoganda speech AnGrY, you almost made it believeable. I have more info on CT than you might think, i know most of its memberbase, and i also know its command structure. As far as i'm concerned this forum is in place so people can put fwd their opinions, therefore i'm free to give mho, and mho is that you've built an alliance around big headed people who imo play for their own win, therefore ur alliance will do very little defence wise, but as they say, offence is defence, not sure how long that motto will take you, but u could try it for a few weeks, so theres my view, i like the look of your BG, but never will u make it as a fullscale alliance to be able to win a round

the round will pretty fast show who is good and who is not, unless the ally and merge system stay as it is, where its suicide to tag fully
for my side im happy to see new alliances are created and ppl cba to org all stuff after we lost some alliances last round.
from what i have seen CT have a nice command and Destiny have also pretty good memebers

where are your facts? truth is, your posts are nothing but unsupported bullshit. You claim to have this extended knowledge of CT, yet you have nothing but ignorance to support your position, certainly no evidence or facts to support your opinions. You are however correct about one thing, this forum is in fact a stage for anyone to share their thoughts.... what your missing though is it is also a place where people like you confirm for us that the world is full of self important morons that know absolutely nothing about the topics they argue about, yet still insist on making themselves look like complete jackasses by arguing over that which they have no knowledge of.
CT will do fine, and we'll enjoy making pre round predictions like yours look like exactly what they are... nothing but hot air.
My only regret here is that I'll have wait to leave a neg rep on your profile, as this wasn't the first time you've made yourself look like a complete jackass on these forums.
As I've said before, we've made no claims of greatness, we've made no predictions, and we've not slammed any other alliance who intends on playing round 20... so give it a rest junior

First point. Im not even in any alliance. Im a retired player.
Yes they were 1up HC for the second point. But what does that have to do with CT? That was my question above. Please read and understand questions before answering them. This is about CT, not 1up.
I think your destiny becuase through out your post you claim how good they are compared to CT. You may say ND deserve the win etc, but then you insult them via claiming they can of course only win as no other alliances are here to appose them. Learn about respect please.
And as you wasnt here when 1up was at its best, dont know how you can claim ex was the only elite alliance. Again.. i sujest you get better intel before posting again?
I am a former Legion member. For people who know me, they know what influence i had in Legion. I agree we dont have the wars we used top have. But to me we still have alliances that are giving it their all for this game and giving everyone enjoyment. So again. I sujest you just keep quiet. I respect anyone whos welcome to an apionon, but at least make sense when you do speak.

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
angryduck, true the world is full of self important morons, but am i one of them? also you contradict yourself, u say that the forums are a place to voice your own opinion with one hand, and then with the other say that your going to negative post me for this thread! when all as i have done is merely stated my opinion, i think you need to re-evaluate what u say!
I've played since Round1 and have seen alliances such as CT with all the propoganda, talk etc with them fall at the first step, i hope that you and your alliance don't, as alot of time and effort goes into making an alliance worthwhile, for yourselves and for the pa community i hope that, but still, this is my opinion and ofcourse my opinion doesnt count, but im still entitled to say as i wish.
I said about 1up because some1 said in an earlier post that 1up was full of egocentrical people and they did brilliantly, and i was merely pointing out the people in the positions that count aren't egomaniacs at all.
and also angryduck, you actually think i care about the neg post rep? i couldn't care less, im entitled to my own opinion, i haven't slated any one specific person. Im merely trying to predict the round, which is what this thread is about, not an "i love you thread" with regards to CT.
CT has alot of good people in it, no denying that, Sleepless and Satyr are two awesome players without question, but all as i have said is "with all these big players how well are they going to gel, will be alot of ego's in there".
and as for arguing over something i have "nothing about", i haven't argued anything, ive simply said that judging by the members u have, it will be hard for them to gel, its u the one that arguing, ive just given my opinion.
I haven't also disrespected any alliance, ive just said that they aren't at the same level as old alliances, player wise and ability wise, which im sure you can all agree with that "fact".
So angry, i'll say it again, its my opinion, i don't care about negative post reps, i also don't care if im a jackass in your eyes or ne1 elses eyes, i say what i think, and if i get shot down for it, i dont give two shits, this game is about statistics and data, not about making lifelong friends, so it doesnt really effect my life too much. but im blabbering on now, this post is getting about how much of a jackass i am, when in truth its about predictions, so please tone it down stick your propoganda on your alliance recruitment thread cheers

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
I could waste twenty minutes of my life carefully spelling out any number of semantic, logical and factual problems with that post, but I have a lovely idea as to how I could better spend that time.
As for next round, it's far too early for me to have significant enough knowledge of any alliance but my own to hazard a worthwhile guess.

This is slightly unfair on the HC of ND.
Many a time it's been the member base of ND who've let down the HC. Perhaps it was the HC's fault for taking risks, but ND's memberbase has always been wildly unpredictable; sometimes they'd dig in and take on anything, and sometimes they'd suicide fleets and fall apart like nobody's business (not true of all members, obviously)
It makes deciding what to do politically a bit of a bugger.

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
Tbh i can see Ducks ego from my house....
And yeah completely agree with Gates statements. When i BC'd in ND sometimes we'd chuck out 80 odd fleets, other nights 40. Just depends what day of the week it was really and how hungover/drunk people were.

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
possible winners are:
Newdawn
Conspiracy Theory
Furious Omen
Newdawn - maybe exactly the right time for them to climb the throne.
Conspiracy Theory - 1up/LCH, skilled players, will deffo play for the win
Furious Omen - guess they are rebuilding atm, but still sth to look out for.
Top5 Prediction:
Newdawn
Conspiracy
Furious Omen
VisioN
ToF

ah well... we will sleep the first half of the round and will come from behind
and yeh indeed. we got plans R20 Stoom
@horn: about the "rebuilding FO" - ofc they merged etc. and it even got to my ears but as I said it was just my personal guess after what happened to them last round. Their "plan" which utterly failed.

They have potential yes, but I can't see ND getting higher up than 2nd (as i said no disrespect meant to ND)
ND is a good alliance with good players, but they play too casual for actually winning a round, there will always be another alliance that wants to win more and has more hardcore members...

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
I love how after 20 rounds of the winning alliance staying quiet on AD (possibly except r11 1up) everyone is overlooking Destiny
And of course, eXilition

seriouSly, Destiny aint playing to win, just to do well, T10 maybe, they only got like 10 decent players, and about 20 newb players, apparantly they dont have scanners as well, really unorganised, so we can forget about them

Recruiting Santa Clause won't help much though, as he'll be inactive already by the time next round begins...
Or is he around just to help out pre-round?
Brining all your members a big supply of fresh coffee, new (LOUD) alarm clocks and whatever else is needed for a potential hardcore PA player. After all he do travel a lot so guess he'll be able to drop by all your members in good time before Christmas.
Or maybe the Easter bunny prefer carrots over coffee? Not sure what lemmings prefer, but I'm damn sure lemmings on a caffeine trip are scary...
Anyways... Anyone that around (you perhaps?) that can inform this uninformed twat (that would be me obviously) who the good people of Destiny are? Since I'm absolutely clueless as to who is going to be running that alliance. Would be nice to know a little bit more than just the name of it

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
Tbh its quite funny how everyone (or atleast some) claim that CT or Destiny would win even thought they havent dun much. Only thing they did is making a recruitment thread or whatever, yes maybe the public channel looks nice or some members u know but an ally is more not just the name or their HC Team the members make the most impact. So lets better wait for the round till a winner is known... yes this is just prediction but its a bit stupid to put CT and Destiny that high as some rounds has proven, everything is open now that eXi and 1up aint playing and angels/omen is doing whatever rest is recovering or however its called! I think this round will get very interesting with new allys and old that r recovering...
My fair bit...

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
You've all forgotten the most obvious winner alliance from the predictions. Oh, some may have mentioned it!
And why did Antigone *not* mention Destiny on his lists? The truth shall be unveiled slowly, as Disc's Destiny membership.

Who or what is Ascendancy?
I didnt mention Destiny because I dont wanna have my ally on my own prediction list *surprise-surprise*
anyways, It will be an interesting Round..no Superpowers as topic says imho but 4-5 Alliances which are capable to take the lead. Politics will be interesting to watch aswell, so good luck everyone - really looking forward to next round. May the strongest Force win.

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
Even tho Destiny and CT will be good additions to next rounds politics, i still think ND or FO will take it home.
No doubt there`s many good players on each side, but building teamspirit takes more than 2-3 weeks preround. But it will be fun to see how it all turns out.

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
I'd coolly rule out ND. Angryduck's leave alone must have some effect, let alone the people he probably took with him. Conspiracy theory is probably strong, with perhaps the cream of LCH, ND, and a good share of the old 1up heritage. Destiny works on a spiced up Insomnia basis, and has something solid to build on there. There are some brilliant military workhorses there, and the hard work of these could prove an invaluable asset. (F)Omen has some piece-picking and gluing up to go through, and a lot depends on the will of a few key individuals. How the two parts will mold, and will they find staff and leaders to run the mill in, and how the staff will hold for eight weeks.
I'd see CT and Destiny off strong, with neither really having an "edge" over each other. If (F)Omen plunge in to the round, they, along with Vision, will proove valuable allies in the run. Without a clear winner candidate (on the level of eXilition or 1up), the award will probably go to the one that proves with not only military cunning but also superior political ploy.
And obviously, where the remains of eXilition and such head to, will definately play a role too. Anyone clinging a large share of them and being able to integrate them into the structure will gain an obvious edge.

My view is CT should win on sheer pulling power, in the sense of people they can attract to the alliance that will be a group that should get them to win (which is why they'll win, rather than doing anything particularly good). Destiny will have to be quite smart to beat them if they are a 'spiced up insomnia' as insomnia's track record is well, patchy. ND will probably be less influential, but might play better as a result.
As jerome pretty much intimated, this round will be between two alliances who are probably quite cack but they are the contenders none the less.

Re: Round 20 Superpowers?
The question will always be whom will gather most support for their cause from the other alliances. And tbh, after reading this thread neither have "impressesed" me to care for or to be apart of something theese two alliances will be involved with.
