Who cares about OPD. Their top members joined around the same day as Sonic empire. You know rank 1, the rim is an advantage to growing fast not a disadvantage.
And a player might not have been in the know so I should just ignore them saying something false because they didn't know? You have the arguing abilities of a 2 year old. Meaning you can say words, but usually they just come out out of order not meaning much. It is irritating to reply to you tbph. Could you do me a favor and thik about what you say before you say it.
Are you saying Sonic is a rim player? This world isn't like the old days Matt. You don't start 14 days late and end up 4 continents from day 1 starters.... an example would be k43, I joined 2 weeks after the world began and still landed in k43, a core K. More than ever with lower populations the late starters are at a much greater disadvantage than ever, as they are much closer to the day one starters (simple logic). Our top members to compare to the rank 1 player of the world? Sonic is indeed off to a very good start, then again I'm not sure I ever criticized your members, in fact have paid homage to your tribe, I am however pointing out that your comment about our players lack of skill/points/OD is short sighted and lacks consideration of relevant conditions. I know a great many of your members, respect, and call friend a good few of them, and would never under estimate their skill, but that does not make other players, or tribes any less viable. Just because we are building our tribes in a bit of an old fashioned manner, rather than a super uber premade.
MM also has a greater nobling percentage per member than your tribe over the past 72 hours. Not suggesting we are better by any means, but again an indicator that your assessment is once again shortsighted.
You'll notice that I mentioned some of my tribemates ought not to post here about things they know nothing of, in this I support your point of view, merely taking exception with your exceptionally large ego. Especially coming from an above average, but not exceptionally so, player.
Now you have stooped to personal insults, this is for sure an indication of your superior debate skills, I bow to your intellectual superiority, which is nearly as large as your ego (not).
Again, your tribe has some very good players, and at the top probably the best "collection" of good players of the world, but I don't concede that there are not other players in other tribes that don't compare to your best talent, including our tribe.
Good-luck Matt, you're a pretty decent player, and by many accounts a pretty good leader too. I would only suggest that you could use a pretty large dose of humility. I'll continue to defend the tribe I am in, and the members I'm coming to know and respect, but I won't stoop to your level and turn this into a "name calling fest".
On track: Aside from the obvious "Hug Me" tribe, I think our tribe MM have potential... AFLAC seem decent, Barb drops off pretty fast, but I think their top players may be enough to carry them on awhile. Not sure about GLOW, but outside looking in seems decent as well.
