The brief duration of it benefited them greatly...

Posted by Mel Profit (aka mel profit) Mar 18 '13, 12:27

people can see an end in sight so they're going all out...although, once we stopped contesting 39:38 things stabilized. Some of what happened there was my fault...it was intentional yet wrong to do. I wanted to test them as I thought perhaps they were broken. That turned out to be entirely wrong. And they played it well...they were massing in the area, had a clear objective and timed it well with the DOW.

I made mistakes but won't get caught like that again. We have a winning strategy. We have 47 of them on vacation and we pick off more and more. I don't know that we got comfortable as much as we had something that worked and moved away from that.

I saw this happen in another alliance on Iota. It too was #1 by a far margin and slowly got taken down over the course of a few months.

Lux is full of fat farms and about 25 fighters.

Yeah, WarMachine just had a rough 24 hours so probably has a skewed view right now. - Spawn Mar 18, 12:34 3
