Re: End of the round awards!!
Alliance of the round – I will give this to
Exitlude. Because of their good organisers, because of their fast retalls, because of their creativity in attacks, because of their awesome defence with a really sucky route setup for defending. For the awesome start as well.
Best Offensive Alliance – This also goes to
Exitlude. I don’t know who was the exact attack organiser or if it was one person alone, but the attacks were fast planned and executed, attacks which are not a simple bash. It is not an easy thing to organise attacks like those of
Exilude but you made it look so.
Best Defensive Alliance – Also to
Exilude for being able to hold on so long before falling to the first resistance, which was quite well organised.
Honourable Mention Alliance – This one goes to
DiscWorld.
Worst Alliance – Here I was going to nominate my own alliance, but since it is not polite to give an award to yourself, I will mention those (even though their noobishness wasn’t even close to ours!):
-
Noobs – for starting a war which they cannot handle and falling from rank 6 to rank 22 somewhere…
-
The Thais (also known as
NeonZeon) – Oh my, when are you going learn?
Best Leader – This one is the most important award in my eyes and it goes to
Cyrus, for single handedly bringing his alliance to rank 1. I am sorry
AzLev or to whoever the
official leader of Khaos was, but it my eyes, the true Leader of Khaos was the person I mentioned above.
I am also going to mention
Twigley here, for gathering such a good team. I was thinking about giving this award to him, but a true leader is more about politics than military organisation. There are some major mistakes which he made, like for example he could have used the power of words (lies, manipulation, twisting of facts, also known as politics) during the resistance against Exitlude. The resistance could have been easily broken with the “Divide and conquer” tactic (something which Sorder did so damn well “some” rounds ago). I don’t say it would have been an easy thing to do, but it was worth a shot at least!
Worst Leader – Whoever the official leader of Desperados was…
Dill or something. A leader is all about communication with other alliances, politics, making sure you know
everything that could give an advantage to your alliance. For me, the leader of Desperados was Alci. Whenever I needed something or wanted to send a message to Desp, it was Alci who I was talking to. He kept saying he is not the leader, but Dill was nowhere to be found so I kept bothering him, which in the end resulted in our both alliances suffering from this. This is exactly the position in which you
don’t want to be as a leader. When the other alliances start thinking that your MO is actually a leader, then you should know that you ain’t doing your job very well.
AzLev can also fit very well here.
Player of the Round – Allied – No one made a strong impression. Desperados had some extraordinary players though, I give this to them.
Pinky also did well with his strikers.
Player of the Round – Solo – No one cares.
Best Offensive Player – Princess Tiffany, for killing ¼ of my players alone, which is quite disturbing. Desperados had some really aggressive and bloodthirsty players which I truly admire and envy that I didn’t have them. Exitlude also had some really good and aggressive players.
Best Defensive Player – Offense is the best defense. Same as above.
Worst Player – Everyone who betrayed their alliances in one way or another, everyone who was a scorequeen and not a team-player. I was going to mention some names here, but it’s Christmass.
Best Moment of Round – Having a successful resistance, killing Noobs, killing BYOB. Fighting/warring in organised manner almost every alliance in top 10. Having so many wars that even I was fed up of warring in the end…
Worst Moment of Round – Being the leader and
only organiser for an alliance, half of whos members either don’t, or speak English very badly and 5 of the other half are players who you have never met before… so yeah, you can imagine.
Having to shout and swear just to get someone to post his damn troops on pols so you can effectively organise people with half brains. Then having to do the same to get them to recall fakes/real attacks/defenses….
Also, not being able to kill Desperados in the end of the round... I am quite ashamed of that. You bastards just won't give up...
