will the resistance continue when its this close to success or will it implode.

We'd have a much bigger chance of being successful if you guys got off your arses and helped.

Melni, in my mind you've no place commenting on this thread. The thread is called "Resist", you're doing "F All" - Go find a thread called "Lets do nothing" :)

-

I'd just like to voice my thoughts on this.

OF are deliberately sitting on the sidelines because they know if they do, they can grow ahead of Enmity/Ail/S2N and have a safer rank 2. They can phrase their reluctance to help however they want, the fact of the matter is they are not doing the done thing, taking part in the age-old and traditional resistance, because they want to queen andlet Enmity/Ail/S2N take losses while they continue to grow.

If OF do finish rank 2 - I think it'll be clear to pretty much everyone that the only reason they've been able to achieve this rank is by sitting on the sidelines and doing bugger all.

Put simply; You guys are boring and I sincerely hope that one day, before the end of round 31, an alliance comes and kicks you all up the arse for being lazy + queening. Diplomacy and politics play a large role in this game; however the extent to which you're playing politics and not the game itself is a bit of a joke tbh.

I require no rank neither to the best of my knowledge does the alliance im in we play for fun and im having loads tyvm, DA look up the definition as accepted by the general playerbase, you are getting confused between scorequeening and us just not caring what particular bunch of players wins the round. Not doing the 'done thing' is what ive been doing for more rounds than i care to mention

The resistance is full of politics which does not technically need to be part of the game OF have to the best of my knowledge played no politics as you very well know

DA - lets gang up on RRR
OF - No
Any Other Leaders - lets gang up on x alliance
OF - NO

This has happened all round and because i/we refuse to do what you or others wants doesnt make us 'queens' or 'lazy' it makes us individuals that do as we choose

In fact i seem to remember you telling me if we didnt join your resistance youd destroy us and you brought 110 of your closest friends to try and do it what was the alliance you were in called again oh thats right the one thats about rank 17 now and were still here


SEEING AS YOU HAS TROUBLEZ UNDERSTANDING AND I HAZ NO CRAYONS TO ILLUSTRATE IT FOR YOU - I DO AS I PLEASE I ATTACK AS I CHOOSE TO NOT AS ORDERED BY PEOPLE THAT'LL TAKE EVERY CHANCE THEY CAN TO STAB ME IN THE BACK.

besides youve quit again so wtf does it have to with you using your logic (or lack thereof)

I restarted, I'm now in Enmity, FYI.

I don't care what you do or do not want to do. Do what you want. I'm just confused as to why you frequent this thread and comment on the resistance, when OF has played no part in it.

And my aforementioned theory is just that, a theory. I'm not saying its fact, but I do believe you're sitting on the sidelines because you'd rather queen than help out with what is and should be the plight of every alliance not winning.

[edit] The whole "Ima be backstabbed" excuse is bull, incredibly JJ/Twigley/Garrett have worked closely this round and done well, without backstabbing each other. There's been ample time for you to realise that this is the case, but you've chose to instead do crap all. *Shock horror*.

I did, though due to RL issues I have to step down from leading and indeed play' altogether. I've now returned to active play.

I'll be honest Melni, I'm just miffed and always have been that despite the fact that OF clearly has experienced and skilled players, the fact that its seniority deems the resistance a waste of time none of them can participate.

The resistance has had highs and lows this round, and come realistically close to more than scratching RRR. If/had OF stepped up to the mark those successes could have been increased massively, but because you're on the sidelines, that hasnt and won't happen.

Which I think is a massive shame, and the reason why so few Resistances happen. A shortfall in participation.

The real shame is that you know this is a viable resistance, yet still refuse to act.

[edit] Yes - I'm aware OF send an attack on RRR from time to time. But segregated attacks on RRR are as useful as pissing in the wind tbh.

if you dont care and are confused sounds about normal dont worry just up the medication i've heard it helps

your theory (glad your not stating it as a fact ^^) is wrong only OF know what OF are doing feel free to theorize to your hearts content but you'll be wrong

as for the backstabbing anyone paying attention on all sides has seen it happening (and thats a FACT not another DA theory

I try not to get personal with people as i believe it cheapens the game in some small way but please DA give it up with the OF hatred you spent the whole of last round viewed as a retard dont make people think the same about you this round (friendly advice)

And again you dont get the fact we dont care who wins good luck to whoever wins though its been a hard and eventful round why should i help say Ail or Enmity or S2N win over RRR when as stated again just for you I DONT CARE who wins the only prediction i can make is that it wont be us :)

And we attack RRR ourselves the same way we attack anyone are you getting the no politics thing yet? we dont need 2-3 other alliances to pick a fight were capable of doing that ourselves maybe if more alliances did so thered be no need for a resistance as alliances wouldnt get so far ahead without politics

Now i haven't been with OF all round, except the last 2 weeks, the chilled attitude of "Join resistance if you want, don't join if you don't want to" has been what is posted in pols. We all have alliance mail, so we all can see the targets and LT of the resistance. We send if we want and we don't if we don't want, and on most attacks you get a minimum of around 6 each time - on average!

You forget DA, we are a FTF alliance not FTW. If we finish 17th or we finish 2nd I'm pretty sure most people in the alliance would be happy! Resistance doesn't bother us and considering last time the resistance took place on the original RRR, OF didn't help at all but now they are sending when we are online or refreshing is doing more than before.

En and STN i have no doubt in my mind prank people for resistance hits (well I'm positive STN do) OF are for fun, we send if we are refreshing or online. Of course there are some old RRR members in OF and there is nothing more i want to see than RRR to fall. But we are here for fun, my last few weeks playing Bushtarion i want to remain this way! So don't go saying how useless we are, or little we care! You forget we ARE a FTF alliance and really we shouldn't be rank 2!! (I'm almost certain we won't finish there so don't worry).

The other factor i can give you is all round OF has worked alone and many were very reluctant to join the resistance and from what i have seen, they have a lot of pride not working with anyone else. The alliance is very split on the resistance opinion, so no, not everyone is going to contribute from our alliance!

And lastly DA, a lot of people do not want to see a TBA alliance win this round. Even though i was personally backstabbed by the RRR split, i would rather them to a TBA alliance. But not that i play for fun, it doesnt really bother me that much! But I'm sure I'm not the only person in the alliance and maybe other alliances that holds this principle!

So lay off us oldies thank you and maybe think before speaking!



PS Don't post **** that with us, RRR would fall and without us they won't!!

Count the acres/score and members of Aili, En and S2N then come tell me again why you need us? - Of course it helps, but why do you NEED us?

If by "everyone" you mean Ahead and Silence, then I expect you're correct; but I know of literally nobody else who thought me "retarded" (Well and you, but your mentality when it comes to this game is something that has baffled me for a few weeks now)

Meh, OF are just lazy IMO - sorry if you're unhappy with me voicing that view :)

Also, this appears to be getting personal - So I'll politely request you PM me with anything further.

DA a word to the wise. We do not set your alliance goals, we do not tell you who you should target - is it too hard for you to extend the same to Old Farts?

Old Farts can hit any player not in there alliance, this includes RRR it also includes alot of other alliances. I know this concept it strange to you and it is to alot of the playerbase.

We in OF play Bushtarion for fun, we play because we enjoy socialising with each other, our members enjoy the freedom of being able to choose a target in there range and to be able to send on them without being told to recall because "ID x is in the resistance" or "We can't attack rank 1" or some other weak reason. We have players who have joined the resistance attacks, althrough since cases of certain alliances (i think S2N & Enmity) not sending LET they have been warned to do so with care. We've had a few do there own attacks on RRR.

Maybe you need to lose the concept that numbers beat skill.

Maybe you need to stop telling an alliance you aren't involved our they should play.

Maybe the resistance should stop stockpiling seeds, maybe they should send LET on there reals on RRR. Maybe instead of talking about it and blaming others for it not being an easy victory they should send on RRR, maybe they should keep doing so 24/7 instead of a few attacks then logging off.

So many maybes and not many relate to OF becoming fully involved in the resistance.

OK so you restarted and joined enmity which still kicked 20 people out of the resistance. As i count 19 fail. members being left to drop like a sack of **** along with the enmity member you replaced. You still have had an equally ***** affect on the resistance. At least OF are flak for RRR incoming.

I was co-leading Fail, had RL issues and dropped play altogether.

Pinpower was co-leader - I left Fail in his capable hands - however due to very many variables the alliance failed.

Thats about it really.

In this case i will take Melni's side.

I have attack with OldFarts most of the round and they have done more attacking than any other alliance i see. Always hitting together, killing lots etc. So for you to say there doing nothing DA is a bit of a lie and i have seen OF on the inc screen a fair few times for us. They defend well. Tbh OF are imo the best alliance outside ReRR.

I am deeply concerned why my 'mentality' is any concern of you i dislike your attitude your whineyness (is that a word) and most importantly of all your haste to blame others that dont share your goals for not helping you achieve them.

Egotistical anyone?

QFT

OF is one of the best alliances i have been with in rounds! Great group/Friendly/Have fun/Run as a social group not a dictatorship/We can do what we want!

For you to say it's useless and lazy is so not true! *IF* the line up *WAS* FTW, then yea we would be awesome and yes we would be sending on the resistance. But when we are FTF, don't care where we finish and don't trust you guys after the last few waves...are you surprised!

FTF DA, FTF!!

Sorry if following another alliances commands isn't fun or what we want to do!

Many people share "my" goals, Melni, as do many of your alliance members.

Look - I'm entitled to my opinion and my opinion is that it is deplorable for OF not to be helping "the cause". You're handing RRR the win. That is my view. Deal with it :/

Emmm no deal with the fact that 3 alliances with more land score and troops cant finish the job the brs's have shown their capable of doing

what you mean is you need someone to die so you can keep your troops to go for the win once youve used the other alliances lethals to do the job your 3 alliances are perfectly capable of doing but are afraid to as then you wont win

as Old Fart said plant those seed stockpiles and actually go for RRR instead of blaming others for your inadequacies

Are you honestly retarted on just ignoring the last few posts of me and Melni?!?!

1. We don't care who wins
2. We don't particularly trust you
3. We are FTF not FTW


Lastly again, i make this point...Add up the scores of the "Real resistance" (as your not including us)

Aili + S2N + Enmity = Bigger in score/land/members than RRR. Why do you need us? Why are we stopping the resistance? We are not attacking you guys, or getting in your way! And sometimes we do send!

Maybe if you all actually sent your lethals and stayed on your attacks you may get somewhere! Sending lethals may help beat RRR, not sending 60% or something.

Lastly...Why is it our job to help resistance if we don't want?!? The more you moan like a school yard *****, the less i am personally inclined to help TBA alliances win!

IoF, I don't really care what your reasons are for not helping - In truth I couldnt care less.

Stop wasting your time providing us all with excuses :)

Oh it seems you have finally seen that we are right and your making a cock out of yourself!!

We don't care about helping TBA win the round funnily!!


Ok DA, say we did help...We took RRR out...what would happen next?

4 alliances evenly sized roughly. I'm pretty sure the JJ and Twig n00b block would come out and you would smash OF and Aili...Funnily, i couldn't give a monkeys at bringing that on!
