Top 10 Kingdoms in the History of the Game.

CK was in monkeys when I was there .... after age 22/23 Lennox would know when; he had the Melbourne utopia meet at his place that year.

Zaup I'll get back to you about that age with the FORCE/LinearA circus when the GB started Imperials where #1 and FORCE was doing everything to get us banged out of the slot including trying to convince Sid we where going to tag team Pansies.

Syntico was on the other team that age =)

Ratty would know he's got a better memory then mine ........

Pansies won Age 19 in the last few hours yeah - BoA had the lead for a bit, before that Force held #1 for the majority of the age then Imperials overtook them at some point when Serenity started messing with Force, then there was the whole LinearA farming which got Force gangbanged (a lot of people benefited from the gangbang not just Pansies) before the BoA/Pansies duel down the stretch.

too much text (but I read it all, very enjoyable). ASF is a good story teller and a good voice of reason when there's no political agenda. Much easier reading his words when there is no acres involved ;)

But, how about a list?

1. Pansies

2. ??
3. ??
etc.

Gods Army held it from the start for a fair amount of time and was worried about Imps and Force so decided to jump us and that's what gave you guys the #1 slot and us a 22K acre boost =)

There is competition and rage fail!

That's because the Best Kingdom Ever occupied the #1 spot.

GA held it when we were getting ready to dismantle Playboys, and we did - we destroyed Kinky, Hambone and Jordinho's killer/cows. :)

Since no one wants to offer up a list, here's my edited one, after taking into account the discussion in this thread.

1. Pansies
2. Beauty of Absalom
3. Sonata
4. Seasons
5. Brute Force
6. Jester's Troupe
7. Playboys AR Absalom
8. Rage of Absalom
9. Relentless Armies
10.Wrath of Absalom

Just miss the cut: Shadowlight, Force, Monkeys, Equilibrium of Absalom, LinearA, Fight Club, Serenity, Zenobias Zealots, Freeakstyle, andn00bs, Evil Dragons, Hall of Heroes, Legion of Blades, Sanctuary of Absalom

Looks good, we can tweak the ranks of several kingdoms still, but good overall list.

Also, for those of you offering names of kingdoms with zero crowns, stay away from this thread.

Its explain why you are so n00b ;)

=) ... odd

all for the greater causes =)

I still don't see my Minions ... not a valid list of cuz

Maybe we should be discussing which kingdoms were the best at their "peak" instead. Because i seriously dont know how Brute Force is overrated. I remember one round Brute got randomly waved, and just 30 minutes later they had 25 stars (players online and ready to fsu)... I dont know if this was a standard for those kds in ur list Realest, maybe u can let me know, but "overrated"? I really dont think so... Maybe they werent the best, but i liked their style the most i guess, lol. Edit: I know we're talking about which kds were the best longevity wise, so my post is prolly irrelevant, but wtv.

Don't forget Realest was (still is?) a nub back then, he played in CraZy, a kingdom that was routinely farmed by Pansies.

Rampage is one of the great leaders of all time and his kingdom deserves some recognition. Although Minions never really won a whore crown, they still belong on the miss the cut list (the top 10 all won).

We're not really talking longevity, more like which kingdom can stand the test of time. The only people arguing for longevity are those that didn't win or won only 1/2 a crown or only once by dicing peacefully in a boring age.

As for style, I preferred the Pansies style over Brute Force, having experienced both kingdoms and winning with both.

And how are you going to argue peak? Are you going to use Rage's Land record or Playboys NW record as arguments? I'm not a fan of inflated stats, I mean even Realest finished 45k the age Rage set the record for Land, and this is a guy who struggles to stay above 3k playing with me in Sonata. I measure peak by success/winning in a period, Pansies won 4 ages out of 5 (Nw/Land and was close to Honor in two of those ages), coupled with the fact that it was the peak era with a lot of strong kingdoms in the Top 50 (these days its just 2-3 strong kingdoms) - that makes them the best of the best imho. You can't compare Brute Force and Playboys' scattered success with that, you could even go with ASF's argument that Beauty of Absalom had a stronger run in the 20s than those two kingdoms because they won one of those ages, and consistently placed at the top during that era.

I played in Flaming Fist then later Shadowlight the first decade. I played in A Mothers Advice in the teens, I played in Force the late teens, played and won in Pansies in the 20s, played and won in Brute Force 20s. I played in Playboys, but retired for the entire 30s era. I came back in the 40s, played and won in Sonata and later in the 50s with Dreams. All those kingdoms (-Fist) I played in held #1 for a significant period of age/s at some point or another. Take my word for it, Sonata can compete with any of those kingdoms (except Pansies), just like your prime Rage can.

It was Age 8, the first age of Battlefields the Age of Chaos. The stronger kingdoms were transferred to Battlefields, Shadowlight ran 25 Faeries and were #1 for the age until some hacking/multi crap - I remember my province kept getting hacked and stuff kept getting changed around, wasn't fun at all. Prismatic Warriors ended up winning the age (another strong kingdom from the old days, although I wouldn't class them in the same league as Jesters).
