Game Needs More Good kds Competing

[Sheister]

Warring better kds > warring worse kds

Warring > not warring

Warring better KDs requires greater time commitment than warring less competetive ones. You can still lose to a less competative KD by being less active and relaxing. It is still a challenge when you are being a slacker.

Its like fly fishing. You can go fishing all the time with a high lb test line and fight steelhead every day, or sometimes you can go out with a 1.5- 2 lb test line and just go popping for sunfish and they will give you a tremendous fight every bit as enjoyable as the steelhead.

Other than Rage and Pulse I don't think there is many we have not warred. That includes top5 and a couple of WWchart-winners.

and I doubt you will ever get to fight rage and pulse as they would never risk slowing their growth to fight you in range and by the time they feel like they are ready to war, the NW differences are so vast that it will never happen, so effectively, you have fought everyone that matters. Rage and Pulse may as well not exist in this game for all the impact they have on it.

Who knows we have gone oop in top 10 before, so who knows.

It's basic math, just like you said. You are destroying your own acres, that keeps you smaller than kingdoms that don't destroy their own acres, lol.

Imo intra kd razeing should destroy all honor on that province! =)

Erm...no. Things that are better require more effort. That's just a basic fact of life. You want better stuff? Go earn more money and buy it. You want to war Rage? Well then you're going to have to put in more effort than you would if you're warring WeHurt (no offense to WeHurt).


Catching 150 of these...

Is not the same as catching this

No matter how hard the little fish might fight.



Put down your sappling, get a real rod, and catch some real fish before you call yourself a fisherman.

I would like to add to my earlier point that I don't believe we would win the landcrown if we tried. It's a different playstyle, we can do the warring part which is a prerequisite but I'm sure there are many other skills needed for players and mainly for leaders to win. Sorry cutecats :) As our kd name states - we're a good ghetto and we play to have fun, in a way we like :)

Sidenote: You said in 3-4 posts here Dharan that activity is what matters to war top. I disagree. Most enemies we face (definitely every kd last age but also several lower level kd's) is more active than us but they lack in skills and strategy or teamwork. With an acceptable level of activity, 1) overall strategy and 2) either individual player skill or having leaders on to guide every action 24/7 becomes more important. 1) for doing the right things over time, and 2) to optimize every situation and get flexibility to use every mistake the enemy do.

Refusing to try is more of a failure than trying and coming up short.

[TeddybearSTHLM]

we're not refusing to try, we're simply stating our disinterest in the mere thought of ever competing for crowns.

So you fail? =)

How has no one attained a back to back in the past 20 ages is mind boggling in such a water down game.

Palem, now go back and read my other post again. I can merge them if you would like. The first one states we have no wish to do this. Based on that someone will say 'it's all an excuse for that you cannot do it'. Sure. The second one is about probably not being able to, to which the answer is then "you should try even if you don't want it cause I want you to want it"? And this from the person who leads the faery kd?

Now, let's not be selfish! I know everyone wants to talk about Cats - but let's focus on the 353 other kd's in this game that isn't top 5 (which apparently is the only good kd's in the game), Simians or Cats. If the purpose of the thread is to find way's to improve their willingness (and chances) to compete, I applaud the thread!
