Spartans Vs Nonpandas

[Proteus]

Woah, baka v Proteus, makes me think we're back in 2005!


While no secret baka likes to brag a bit, you are at least a degree worse on that front than baka. You consistently brag about achievements and records.


False. I got my killers hit in a hostile by Drixx (Fury I think?) and later turned it it was because Hawk told him/them to do it :p


I would rather call it known/good. Famous/legendary are only for a select few IMO. Of course he's not terrible (except that one time were #teamFeyr+prot bounced like 3 of his hits in a row!), but the same can be said about baka. I can't really judge their leading skills, but both are capable of running a province without being micro'd. That's worth quite a bit when recruiting. The less micro needed, the easier it is for a leader. Kind of like how Zauper posted earlier, about not needing to worry about who to pool up if said province is in best spot to be pooled.
Proteus has strong ties with Absalom due to his past, so taking him into Emeriti is no real surprise.

As for last age, Emeriti and Pyro had the strongest OOP's. CR then got smashed by Pyro, so by then Emeriti had probably won the age already. While the 2 warred, Emeriti was able to whore. Early on, whoring beats warring (except a mintime farm). Based on that it wasn't really a surprise.
Sure, later FS gave it a shot but their setup/science was inferior to Emeriti's. That fight was more a question of how much Emeriti would gain rather than if they would win.


I think fights you can't really lose are a bad comparison to what Korp probably means. A 50/50 fight is probably the best benchmark, but they rarely happen. You can say you beat CR, but you beat like a half CR due to the odds.

And in Panda's defense, they lost from an inferior position to us last age (even tho we didn't want the war lol) and they did 'beat' Jesters this age while coming from a dealbreak (I think longterm they would have gotten a 50% win).

Prot i think you missed a couple of points but overall a decent post / response.

You hit the nail on the head, I used to talk lots of smack about results back in the day. I would also live up to what I said though (I.e telling someone we would beat them and then doing it) that kinda why people tended to not like me as id talk smack to them but then also win the fight. Generally it's awesome when someone **** talks you and then farms out, kinda like karma and you aren't left mad at that person because he owned himself.

However, I haven't really attempted to do that here now or since returning last age. My post was in response to baka's unfounded arrogance towards Bart and coming back to reform bio. I needed to remind Baka that aside from his one win the age flogger and a bunch of others joined his kd to make it happen, he hasn't done anything and has lots of losses (big ones) to top kds. No where did I attempt to say anything to praise myself or even compare myself.

If you want to talk down to someone and claim you owned them, etc. it would really help to have a winning record vs that kingdom/player/leader. Baka doesn't. With that said I didn't go and talk about my results or crowns won or kds I lead or whatever. I just said Baka hasn't done anything, and also **** played blatantly. I have him in the same category as I have Mansoor. That's all.

The bounce comment isn't really a fair one. A couple of our leaders got bounced in that war. That was actually the age I was playing on my phone for majority of the age, that was included and would take Intel 1x on phone and try to hit, and yes got bounced. Doesn't really compare when you setup multiple screens on your desktop for cow hits, etc. you guys had a super kd that age with the pulsing trollfags and beat everyone and won, that was a very good age for ya'll. The following age we beat flogger 3x in war and they finished small. I mean position changes every age. Flogger got the kudos for a good age but he also had Dirty there, who really is legendary.

As for me I don't consider myself an all time best, legendary, or anything like that would need to be playing and leading a lot earlier then when I actually started and also be able to win as well. I'm just competent and confident in my ability to lead a solid kingdom and be able to compete against people that are considered all time greats (flogger/elit/etc) and be able to win wars against them / win a crown when they are competing.

Your second part of that post kinda reads like I joined as a core player to play a province :p
