dRAGE have been sitting on seeds for almost 2 weeks,

actually, we've been in a pitched battle for the last week and have very few saved seeds

a shame you're so deluded by your ideas of us powerblocking to notice the inc being traded between Aphalla and dRQ over the past week

Res have just been doing their own thing and not getting involved since the score gap between dRQ and Aphalla was closed, how that constitutes a power block i dont know

neither Aphalla nor dRQ have had a chance to attack them with sufficient force due to fear of an attack from the other whilst they're out attacking

the only reason dRQ hasnt attacked Res is because of that 1 reason, as soon as the situation with Aphalla is resolved, ie, either us or them are dead and land raped, im sure Res will get their turn

You have been sitting on seeds, that's the only reason you have the lead now. You sent with both Bribemania and Res, let them take all the hits whilst you sent nothing but flak and Geos.

And now you've still got all your LET alive, knowing that you won't be backstabbed by the ones you've been 'helping'.

Go and get the rest of your alliance to write some more garbage, it's hillarious.

Since words don't seem to get through to you, maybe images will.

I swear I said this. I'm getting pretty fed up of this - We don't attack anybody else en masse because we simply can't. The moment we do, Aphall appear and hit us back - So why hit anyone else with that looming threat?
We have defended nightly every night since day 1 - Mostly against Aphall. There is NO POWERBLOCK. A resistance lasted two days when they were 20b+ ahead, then after they were reduced, it was ended.

oh wow... i think i'd know if my alliance was sitting on seeds, instead of constantly planting to replace troops lost in the war effort, as ya know we'd have been dropping more score than we'd be gaining, but oh well, you must know whats going on up here better than me even though im the one fighting it, kk, gg to you ^_^

im not gunna comment further, i'll just continue to play how i play

Yeah. We've definitely been sitting on seeds, here's the proof of it. Drive bys of every single DRQ member. The longest one of our players has gone without planting has been 24 hours. Rofl. Yeah, definitely seed stocking. Clearly that's the only reason we're rank 1.

We have a couple players who've been on vacation which is the few massed players. Otherwise we've got less than 200bill each in seeds. How is that seed massing?

Ok enough of the past now, nobody will ever agree with each other and for rounds to come there will be a difference of opinion. The leader of drage along with some of their members have admitted it was lame to hit 2 v 1, but they wont agree that it currently is a powerblock even if we disagree.

So current situation time from my perspective :)

Rank 1 is hitting rank 3.
Rank 2 is hitting rank 4.
Rank 1 and 2 still not touched each other.

Rank 1 won't hit rank 2 (Probally untill they've killed Apha, then they will maybe kill off Res, who i doubt will get any assistance. Good tactically for drage to use Res as flak at this stage now they are rank 1. Always nice to have a dog on a leash!).
Rank 2 won't hit rank 1 (The only reason i can think is that they must think they can beat drage when drage have a bigger lead in the future ... which in my opinion they have no chance of doing if left too long .... so maybe they are content at being drage's b1atches and infact they have no tactics but to just help the rank 1 ally win? I know two of Res just didnt want to see Bruce win at all costs, no matter how much the cost.)

^^ My opinion only.

I don't think any of us have thought further ahead than killing Aphalla at the moment. At least, if my leaders have I haven't been informed. Then again i'm dangerous with information :( We all rather expected the round to turn out in a different manner, and I think we've all been caught with our metaphorical pants down. We were all rusty and not expecting a real fight for rank 1, so now that we're all lubed up (lol) and ready to go, this is the time to be watching. Aphalla and DRQ have both gotten considerably better/sharper defensively since the beginning of the round, and it's now down to long distance attacking and who can last the longest (that's what she said, lol).

I couldn't speak for Res, they may have a few cards up their sleeve.

As for Aphalla, I honestly wouldn't count them out. They've taken a few beatings, and come back every time, and they've given us more than our fair share of beatings too. I think this round has plenty of potential and life in it yet, unless something truly gay happens.

Well now i've been thinking ... what is a powerblock?
I've always had it down as two allies working together against allies sameish score and preventing people lower than them growing.

Alci's definition is:

[00:25] <Alcibiades> 2 or more alliances in the top 3 ranks (usually) that work together to prevent the alliances underneath them from growing

Which is probally everyone else's idea.

So.
Do we now have a powerblock?

Two alliances (Rank 1 and 2) preventing the rank 3 and 4 alliances from growing and not hitting each other at all since day 1/2?

You have been.this round tho?
And working together is not just hitting with each other. One ally hitting one and one the other while not hitting each other would be working together. Wether its agreed in words or not.
You're both keeping lower ranks down and never hitting each other.

We wouldn't be having this discussion if the stats said ud fought with troops atleast once, or hadn't been massing an ally together.

By that definition every round in bush history has had powerblocks. Your definition is too broad and does not take into account his rounds unusual circumstances of three competitive allies 3 weeks in.

Not to mention our working together was to take down rank 1. Resistances do not equal powerblocks as I've told you several times today. We are no longer working together, and haven't been for some time; so once again, no powerblock. Both the leaders of Res and dRQ understand that to hit each other now would mean a probable defeat for both while our enemies remain as yet unbeaten and someone else claiming rank 1. We're not working together, but we're both biding our time til our main enemies are gone, then I have no doubt we'll duke it out. I think you're confusing a sensible tactical decision with a powerblock.

Oh well, if you really think this is a PB, mail Azzer and he'll be the final judge. I've said my piece on this and don't think I can clarify it any further nor do i foresee any more constructive debate on this subject in the future. So let's agree to disagree, and let actions speak louder than words!

While I disagree with 99% of what Zaheen said, the IRC log is truthful (I doubt the "seed stocking" claims are) however just because you've planted recently doesn't disprove his point (however invalid/valid it may have been) he said you guys *were* not *are* seed stocking, and the reason you are winning is because after everyone was weakened you had a large seed stock to plant and bounce to rank one, however this is a valid tactic, so idk the issue here. I just wanted to point out that he wasn't just flaming with nonsense for that particular post

Davis his post is UTTER nonsense. Who weakened Aphallatosis if it wasn't us? And we certainly didn't do it without troops. We may have stocked seeds as you put it But only until we had useful troops to buy. Would you mass shocks instead of waiting for RPGs? Would you mass Jeeps before TLs? Would you mass ninjas and assassins if you were getting SAs? Of course not!

We didn't bounce to rank 1. We fought tooth and nail to claw ourselves into first place. We have spent almost a week bouncing between rank 1 and 2 with Aphallatosis and with Res bobbing about there too. Check combat stats if you want it'll show we didn't just plant our way to rank 1. Hell. Spy our members and Aphallatosis, you'll see the proof of battle right there. So please make sure you've got all the correct facts before commenting.

Sheesh.
