I was going through my old ID's and checked the later ones out with Powographs. I have to say, I was getting quite interested in what I figured was my best round, statistically. And I found it. It's my R21 ID: We're_all_the_Gears of this_War [1365] It held 44th for a few hours. The best I had ever done for more than a tick. The Alliance and wars of that round were the best I was ever in. (WeSuck, The Roxy Fan Club, Big Balls, Diabolic, Hullabaloo)

After having a good look at everything I could about that round I thought it'd be awesome to see what you people consider your best round. (Preferably since R15 when Azzer started to keep ID history's)

Re: Your very best.

Statistically, r23 was my best. Valuation: £219,283,437,061 [Final Rank: 1] (Highest valuation held: £219,283,437,061. Highest rank held: 1 for 10,521 ticks)

Rank 1 for 10521 ticks out of 10944. :p

Although r13 was actually the best round imo.

Re: Your very best.

Probably the most boring rank graph of powo ;)

I agree with Turnip on the Banner wars. That were the best.

As far as good old fashioned fun in bushtarion R21 was the best, though the rounds after that were fun in the sense that they all had something new and community based. Themed alliances, W1 tourneys, etc. All on a larger scale than anything of the sort before it.

Re: Your very best.

I wasn't going to post on here, but my winamp randomly started playing The Libertines - Narcissist. Spooky.
Looking back, I realised that I haven't properly played bush since round 13, with the exception of round 21. Madness.
Statistically my best rounds were 21 and 13, although i enjoyed 9 and 10 the most. Fun.

R19 with Leftovers, R20 with Guernica. Both rounds were fun because of the resistance movements that went on.

Both winning alliances weren't the big dogs from the early stages.

R23 I am most proud of, portalled on BH, Eff, and L/F with 3 hrs of activity

Re: Your very best.

What powerblock?
Statement of powerblock cant be used from round like r9 was. It can be used maby first of round 11 i think where 2 completely different alliances made a deal with each others. Basicly powerblock requires there to be multiple top alliances with combining forces that outcomes all others. And r9 there were even bigger forces on opposing side than what ViruS had. Also ViruS was one alliance. Same way like Dragons/Angels, NTH had. So even in that sense it cant be called powerblock. You should also notice that size of all ViruS alliance on r9 were around 15 members while some alliances had 40 members in em.

Re: Your very best.

You posted 3 alliances in your previous post so I just assumed you were leading them all?

Re: Your very best.

Only if you have no idea what word powerblock mean.
Next you gonna say that core&applecore was powerblock.

Powerblock is coalition of at minimum 2 LEADING alliances or coalition of so many alliances that their number is so massive that no other side of game has any chance to compete against them. Definition powerblock cant be used of alliances that have existed from beginning together and aimed for one goal as long as opposing forces have had numbers to beat them.
For that sole reason there has been maby 1-2 powerblocks or maby even none in history of Bushtarion. People are using word powerblock too often to mean every leading alliance even theres no other but political reason for it.

I really suggest you look a bit more in depth of rounds of bushtarion before you start throwin stuff like powerblock around.

No matter what you say, 3 alliances under 1 rule is a powerblock and don't forget that this here is YOUR definition of powerblock, your own way of interpreting things just so that they can prove YOUR points.

But you are right on one thing, I have very limited knowledge of round 9, so I am going to stop arguing here.

Statistically this was my best, close to winning all 3 ranks if it wasn't for cervantes and his lack of bounty :p Also did this round 454 bil kill damage which is my favourite stat/rank :D Managed to beat it last round by a bit, 469 bil.

Tho i think my first round was the most exciting. I still remember i got the shakes after we put so mo effort to get on top and then i see an alliance screen full of hostiles, it was like all world against us. Too much for my young heart at that time :p
