    Because despite all the trolling otherwise you have an active kd with decent players. That alone lets u win wars in the “war” tier, ie how u got your win last age. Most leaders are smart enough to realize that. The kds with activity to match you and beat u figured u’d go for the attitude of we’ll declare when we can win or were the kds that beat u in war. The declare when we can win attitude is just abusing GBP mechanics though. As Ops don’t count and its impossible to chain there's simply no reason to fight fearies in hostile when GBP makes you nearly invincible.

    Not saying every kd in the game doesn’t use GBP, its’ just when 2 kds are actively fighting its just stupid that the game doesn’t push u into war. 200 points removes declare range lol, try dropping it to 15 points and make ops give points and I bet every war kds grows since none of them will risk losing to a 15 man ghetto that’s 140% their size, and they hate the idea of not being able to retal at all. There's a reason players call it retal “waring” even if the game doesn’t.

    We don't avoid you, and you don't avoid us. When we have already over 2-3k+ ops for 1 week and 3 dragons received, why you still don't have tag hostile? Or you want to open us for another kd to wave?
    BTW your tacit is long hostiles our is too :P

    Funny thread.

    If competing at the top means joining an alliance (which seems more like a gang rather than a competitive community with the blood in blood out type statements) then no wonder no one does it. The fun is in the middle, with the rest of the server, not at the top holding hands while circle jerking each other till one of you gets the privilege of getting off.

    ;)

    You realize there's more alliances in the bottom/middle than at the top right?

    explore pool and formula changes. Best to look at the relative size between gaps, they are about the same as ever.

    I can't imagine what warring a KD of 25 faeries would be like... but I imagine it's painful.

    Better make sure everyone has WTs.

    Last year we were a warring KD of 25 faery.
    We only had 7 of so warriors, and a handful of hybrids.
    I loved it, it was a lot of fun even if we were just pushing a boulder up a hill to have it roll back down, we went 1/5 wars i think. We learned a lot as we warred some really quality KDs, freakstyle and exnihlo and ghetto warlords were very memorable to war vs and I'd reccomend it to anyone.

    EDIT:
    Lol, never mind, i read your post again and realized i needed more sleep.
    Yes, they all have WT, like 20-30% WT :P

    Our KD warred Ghetto Warlords this age... but unfortunately it seems like they may have fallen from their former glory : /

    "good" kingdoms? Most of the "good" kingdoms today are garbage, except in their own minds and in the eyes of impressionable nubs. If the game weren't in such a degenerated state, those kingdoms would be mid-tier caliber at best, and they only coast along because more kingdoms are lacking the activity/enthusiasm to field 25 players and make a run for the charts. The vile behavior of those ghetto-topkds is the primary contributor to the unwillingness of most of the game to play competetively. Meanwhile the few actual good kingdoms/leaders at the top naturally crush all competition.
