Pandas then decided to wave Meep as we had no deal with them and were limited in targets, seeing they were just bouncing provs and were already hitting out of the conflict. We did a deal with Meep and Meep alone, even after threats from abs side and a lot of complaints from CJ, even hinting he would join ABS side.
After sometime (a week I believe), after knowing new info, after talking with a lot of people, after other friendly kds got involved, after days of pressures to accept CF with all ABS side or we could get into trouble, we took a stance and joined in.
We spent most hits just bouncing banks and razing, land hits were a minority, so unless people complaining have a different strategic logic, I would consider this an awful way to grow and gain any sort of advantage over CJ.
While one kd was growing freely, waving down any kd with NOONE to threat them at the top, whoring their provs with absurd def in a normal situation, the other was heavily involved in a conflict, getting severely opped and hit by a few kds, mostly from Emeriti.
If this is the best way for the second kd to gain any sort of advantage, I have really been playing this game in a wrong way.
It seems one kd did gain a lot from this situation and that kd was not Pandas.
