No one has FAd to the top since I came back table. Hopefully he has the good grace to drop out of the top 10 before the end if he isnt pushed out by evo monsters and omega.

If he and the people who put him there spent that much money doing so.

I dont see why they would then drop out of the top 10.

Oh thats amusing, beat NA in war, then resort to their *old* tactics that everyone hated them for.

Hah.

I know this guy and he did benefit from a buyout.

He hit it good with oil and a few techs. He's had massive land for a lot of the reset that helps as well.

This is an alliance game. I am sorry that your alliances aren't as good at producing champions.

I've been out of the game for a while, but I thought this was the forum for the ALLIANCE server, not primary. If an alliance decides that an individual country's net worth is more important than their ANW, so be it. The alliance server is about group achievement, not individual.

If you don't like it, then either war them, or out do them.

I dont really like buyouts or FA crap either and i wasnt involved in this just to make that clear

on the other hand I find it very amusing that collab is complainin about this after sending FA up to one of their own guys last time they netted

if you wanna see some true individual netting performance, i think primary server is the place to go.

i mean, ever since the alliance server has been created, all top 10 achievers at least took advantage of their tag protection for the entire reset. no one ever won this server single handedly. what's to complain about?

Researching millions of points in 1 tech category then spending other clanmates stock on it = skill? Noone has ever won single handedly but to win it with no effort of your own? And against the wishes of your alliance leader = lol.

We can pretend I wasn't in SoF and I don't know he isn't happy about this all you'd like Loafer. But he doesn't need to outright spell it out for me (and others) to know he didn't approve of this.

I am a troll. Everything I say must be assumed to be said solely to provoke an exaggerated reaction to the current topic. I fully intend to bring absolutely no substance to any discussion, ongoing or otherwise. Conversing with me is pointless.

War over someone doing buyouts? Did we war NA when they did them? No. It's just pretty lame. I don't care if this is the Alliance server. If the entire server resorted to FA'ing 1 person to the top every set, this server would die off faster than it already is.

I made 1 post stating that it was lame, which it is. SoF has claimed they could get 2-3 guys in the top 10 if they were to net. Is this how they planned to do it? If so, all that fluff talking was for nothing.

No... I remember that. I just don't see the purpose in the buyouts. Not like nobody would notice. I'd hate to be the guy who misses out on top 10 because of this. Which surely won't be me :P

I never claimed it was a war that brought much trouble but if u think u run the same strat and startup when u plan to war as to when u plan to netgain it says more about ur skills rather then anything else.

On ur other point i cant comment cause i have not read any posts from any SoF members where they claimed to be badasses.

I just said Ivan didn't participate, which he said himself. He also said that he doesn't like buyouts, which he has made very clear.

Does that really translate into Ivan asking people not to do it and getting disrespected?

I'm sure it would be a different matter if he stated that he didn't want it to be done. But that's not what was said, now was it?

SoF didn't do any buyouts.

LCN did the buyout, as did any other top 10 that isn't SoF.

I guarantee EVO did buyouts. Check the SDI/mil strat buyouts that happened a few days ago. WHO DID THOSE? Evo. Why don't you all get up theirs about that, huh?

judging your stupied comments it seems you guys are sure SoF netted this set rofl , well news flash... SoF did not net this set , we all had war countries :)

and btw deli - the countries who jumped were not techers , it makes things much harder , when i think about it those SoF members spent more effort on their country then 95% of the ppl in this sever , its still FA though ofcorse :)
doing this buyout took alot of team work and alot more effort then u think :)

Too bad no one will remember your 'achievement' come the next few resets, just as no one remembers Llaar's past 'achievements' in NA as 'achievements'.

It appears that some people hate netting because others out net them.

It appears the same people hate warring because others beat them up.

Will Thomas and friends quit
Over failure at netting?

And to purchase a kitten
So you can stay hidden

If someone beats me, so be it. If someone has to organize a buyout etc in order to do so, that's a different story.

And when was the last time someone "beat me up"? Name the set.

Most top alliance finishes have been the result of multis, FA, or other methods beyond what one country alone can do. It's the way things have always been.
