When 3 alliances side to attack an alliance which is smaller than any of them, you know it is a sad day in bushtarion.
You gentlemen, Twigley, Steve_God and JJ couldn't have gone any lower. I salute you, you have reached a new level of patheticness. Some poeple say that it is not important what you have achieved, but how you have achieved it. You showed us that you do not care how you achieve things as long as you achieve them.
As for Twigley and SG, I thought I could expect more "honor" from people who have been playing here for more than 6 years. I guess I was wrong again.
i do personally agree with you, i never intend to be part of a powerblock or have permanent allis because i feel i would achieve nothing.
but its a valid tactic and almost garantee's you the win if you have alot of the more pro players, i dont understand how someone would not want to fight for victory though, being handed it takes the fun away for me
i swear the original post of tba, (on old forums) was to teach new players learn the game and help lead alliances ftw in the future?
Where did that go wrong? Your more likely to put people off with a power block, bashing the **** out of small alliances and players 3v1.
Pfft great round this is going to be!
f0xx, your alliance - in conjunction with Chance, AND TDL, hit S_G during the week.
The massing is well uncool, but that's going to happen every round so it just happens to be a negative side effect of the real problem people are pissed off about. That is 3 allies actively working together to crush everyone else in a powerblock. That is unbelievably boring for this game, boring for the players not involved in the powerblock and is killing this game faster and faster and evidently makes players, new and old, not want to play anymore.
i've spent an astonishingly large portion of my bush career 'getting bashed' and it's not so bad with only one or two allies, but a continuous power block is just unacceptably boring and makes this game unspeakably ****. Didn't we get rid of A-Naps ages ago for this very reason?
Your issue appears to be more with the length of the round, than the powerblock itself.
I can see why people are getting annoyed here. Incoming from 3 alliances is enough to piss anyone off. But at the end of the day, there are no rules that say alliances can't work together.
Just be careful before you start flaming the guys involved. Because put simply a number of alliances have worked together this round, just because three have done so more effectively than anyone else, doesn't make that group of individuals "n00bs, dishonourable, or idiots" (or any mix of the three).
It just means they were better organized, better prepared and fought better. (YES, by massing together, so what? Most alliances in the top 8 are "guilty" of the same)

lololol. More effective? Better organised? Haha come on please.
We did not create a powerblock because we cannot take an alliance alone. We do not share the same channel with 2 other alliances. We do not share our ids with 2 other alliances. We do not attack with 2 other alliances an alliance which is smaller. You call that skill?
Is that how you guys "teach" new players? "get as much players as possible and then throw them into the enemy". You guys make me sick.
Do you call putting 60 people in 1 channel and changing the topic of it "a better organisation"? Give me a break.
I thought the playerbase and especially the leaders have grown up the phase of making powerblocks and have become more mature. You prove me wrong though.
I appreciate that 3 alliances working together is very difficult and frustrating to combat, and I'd either be angry or despairing if I was on the receiving end, but I am curious as to why the rest of the top 10, particularly Chance and War, are just lying back and taking it. Aside from this often mentioned attack on SG, I haven't heard of a single properly organised hit. If you're facing a 'powerblock', really, I would have thought, the best course of action is to form your own and take the fight to them. Round 10 anyone?
