1. i never claimed to be THE best. i claimed to be one of the best leaders in this stage of the game which is reinforced by record. top charts finishes and long wining streak vs other good kingdoms. it is also reinforced by the fact that since ive been around i have been able to join leadership in many good kingdoms. in another post i even said elit is better than i am. also people like asf/dorje definitely are.
I am fascinated by how you put emphasis on winning against other kds (while probably 9/10 times you picked the fights with quite some advantages at hand before engaging in any conflicts). Actually I guess its not so surprising that you put weight into just that consider your lack of crowns during the time you did lead. 1 or potentially 2 crowns while leading for 2? years isnt that much to brag about.

2. i honestly dont think a player in a crowning kingdom is comparable to a leader of a crowning kingdom. the latter takes more work. also all crowning kingdoms (with exception of outliers like bio, warcry, swea) have a very good player base. when 2 good kingdoms who good players (who know how to play a prov, follow orders, play properly in ambiguous situations without hand holding) face off...it is leadership that makes the difference. all else equal kd with better leader --> strategy will win. with that in mind i dont give a crap if someone who has multiple crowns but not as a leader trolls me. i know what i have achieved is harder and ive had success against those who are considered good leaders in this era.
You won some wars, you did some mediocre chart placesments, congrats very skilled.

3. when you have a winning record over someone (like i do over kds you played in) you also cant really troll that person. you can, just not about game play.
But, what is better, winning crowns or winning few wars?

4. i dont care to discuss real life here, especially with people who do not know me. i am very satified with real life (i.e. marriage, health, educational attainment, good job, material possessions, etc.) so dont need to go into this with people. obviously people who dislike me want to say i am a janiator or some other lame crap but fortunately utopia forums opinion of me =/= success in RL.
Neither is your bragging in Utopia forums any proof of real life sucess. So you might as well be a janitor.

5. my record in rage-its obvious that when someone who was one of our toughest enemies and also didnt like me much wants to let me into their kingdom and allow me to help out clearly says it all. also no one really disputes how good rage's record is. and its easy to confirm that i was monarch of rage the past 2.5+yrs.
You record of medicore play in the top with never really getting to win? Yet again we shall point out the fact, only 2 crowns during those 2? years isnt impresive by any standards, consider for example Dreams that was created within 30 minutes manage to crown during that time (even with a gangbang from Rage+ friends)
