I beg you to look up the stats when the majority of players decided to quit.
CTRL was nobling almost as many Borg/A88A/Line villages than the three tribes were nobling in general. They were losing members faster than they could make up villages for.
And because there really seemed like no conceivable end to the world because the players we'd beaten tribe and tribe again kept jumping ship and moving to the next tribe, and DDB had fallen and reformed. Most of us quit.
The point of fighting had lost it's point. Beating people over and over again at the same game just gets to be a chore more than anything after a while. It had absolutely nothing to do with losing villages. Because, come on, please, CTRL, lose to an enemy? Anyone with any real intelligence or knowledge of past events would know thats just laughable.
X-Press, , Eli. Don't hide in your cocky little hole cuz you're winning now after we all quit. You know how things were when Woodly left, followed by me and the majority of the good active CTRL members and most of the nomads playing on accounts. Man up and admit it, and stop allowing your tribe members to talk about crap you know isn't true. And then I won't have to come back and call you out on it and correct people.
Just dropping in to try and educate the under privileged children. I'll be along my way now.
EDIT: O wait, I found some, Dated Feb 22nd 2010. Two weeks before I quit. And a couple weeks after Woodly and a few others had quit.
EDIT:
This was Feb 4th 2010.
2 Days before DDB fell.
It didn't matter who the player was, or how stacked they were, we could throw countless nukes at them. And take anything we wanted. We threw over 15,000 nukes towards almost 1000 villages and took over 75% of those villages in less than a week and a half.
Honestly. If you can truly call stats like that an entertaining war, when they looked like that for a good 6 months, then your game is nobling barbs, and I feel truly sorry for the lack of will to kill in this game. This game is about war, and when it stopped being a war, and turned into a noble fest of free easy villages. It stopped being fun and we stopped being CTRL. There was nothing left to CTRL.
