2 EQ 110.216 128.497 52 2.471 56 2.295

10 TBS 72.144 84.681 51 1.660 51 1.660

To me the ones looking strong at the moment are:

Rabid and Panda with their low member count.

i never wanted rabid to merge into salt

i realized i wouldnt last long when i was only farming once or twice a day because i had almost no freetime after having a newborn daughter. That is why i told my tribemates to work on joining local tribes that had leadership that could be more active.

If i could play like i used to 12-16 hours a day things would have been different. Real life comes first, for me at least

My analysis:[spoil]dopa recently left the tribe which was a significant loss. Rumor has it that ISN is currently at war with 5 tribes and seem to be doing well. Which is pretty impressive at this early stage of the game. It's obvious to see that SARCOW and Panda may have to agree on a NAP, but not an alliance if they want to take down ISN. I don't see any tribe in K54 that can go against them 1 on 1.

I predict that more tribes will be participating against ISN. Let's be honest here, ISN has players with 2-3 villages which is a threat to all tribes in K54. Expect to see some none stop action in a few days. My only advice to ISN is to tell your members not to attack certain tribes and to get NAPS to certain tribes to avoid them from joining the war.

My analysis:[spoil]I like the tribe's COA. It turns me on! (lols). Anyways this is a new tribe once against from a super merger made out of some of the "more" active players in K54. By the looks of things K54 is the melting pot of W85.

It looks like Panda lost 2 villages a couple of days ago. Which will hurt tribe morale. Panda's greatest strength will also be the tribes greatest weakness it is that since they lack member strength they have to forge and work as a team. Which could be very difficult if there are a lot of different personalities in a tribe. Be reminded, Panda is not a premade tribe so there is no solid foundation or continuity that the players share.

My advice to Panda tribe is stay "under the radar". Agree to a couple of NAPS and maybe even an alliance. Basically Panda needs time to grow and conquer. Which will be difficult if ISN keeps being aggressive towards them.

But Panda, you do have some good active players.

I'm sorry I only have time to make a top 3 review. I'll expand the review once I get more time. I'm not trying to be disrespectful towards SARCOW or NWG. I know both tribes are to be respected and have great tw players!

 

[DeletedUser]

wow! core! you totally made effort in those reviews! +8 for you ^^

Dang! That Pervy Sannin Sage started a Pervy Tribe! and the COA! LoL! hahaha

hmmm....for my Top 1 Analysis, the Immortals will Hold Top 1 Crown Domination of all the current Top 10 Tribes. Who are they!? Those who existed before rim worlds were invented ^^

Nice review, just 1 mistake with ISN Key Players

Key players:

[devil667]

Ill just do 5 for now. [Might consider doing 10 incase we ever manage to climb up within 10 ]

1 ISN - Ok, initially didnt pay much heed to them, though they were the first to get the conquering underway. However, just noticed .utu. in there. Now thanks to my amazing memory, I happen to remember him from my short stay in World 78. They had a fairly small tribe somewhat being influenced by a bigger incompetent one. They managed to pull off quite a nice OP on a tribe beside me, infact I was so surprised to see "just another rim tribe" pull off such precise co-ordination I actually decided to help the tribe they were attacking. Me and one of my beloved minion sniped quite a few of their trains, and eventually I left for world 79. And later found out they had suffered badly for terrible leadership and got slaughtered by HAZMAT or something. I really do hope the best for you guys this world, and hopefully you guys have good leadership that wont give you false hopes or abandon you. My best wishes for you people.

2 EQ - I see a lot of my world 84 tribemates in EQ, infact led by one of them as well. I know I am barely active there, but I have been lurking and analyzing a lot of their interactions/co-ordination/personalities/behaviors, and I must say, they are a fascinating bunch. They are tolerant, well behaved, amusing, well-coordinated[except me *cough cough*] and skilled individuals. Infact kind of reminds me of ourselves back during World 10-20. Probably the tribe I would like to see succeed the most.

3 Panda - Think I have seen a few of them in world 72 & 78 or something. Looks good so far, skilled active accounts in there and somehow seem quite ambitious to me. They are in an extremely competitive continent, it will be fun to watch how they plan on tackling it, through diplomacy / taking out threats early or grow in clusters and go for a lengthy late warfare. Fate of South West, will depend heavily on the decision making of the leaders of top tribes there.

4 Rabid - Got an extremely nice & polite leader, I have to admit, started off with a relatively small number of players, and in-time increased their presence by recruiting quite a few ex SALT members. And I for one do support that, SALT had good players, and it would have been rather sad if one unfortunate event made most of them leave the world. This is the last [proper] world afterall, and I would rather have a large number of quality players fighting among themselves, instead of one or two tribes steamrolling it through. And I liked the intro thread too. Would probably succeed regardless of luck, but I cant help but wish them the best of luck for their endeavor.

5 NWG - What! Why! Guess there has to be a tribe like this in the top 5 of every world, not good leadership, not good memberbase, probably very little organization there overall. However, even a single pawn at times can alter the fate in a game of chess. So lets see if they can become that pawn, or just end up getting pawned by more skilled & organized tribes.


I wanted to write about SARCOW & MILFs as well, but it does become a bit incoherent, and I guess most of you have better things to do than hear the boring opinions of a retired soul.

Special shoutout to ISN for recruiting players, having them lose their troops to us and dismissing them so that their conquer stats don't get ruined.

[devil667]

Glad that you guys liked my review. Will try to give updated ones based on recent developments as soon as we get done with our tribal rituals & voodoo to re-incarnate the fallen.

Oh and ERIG, you're invited, we do need to sacrifice a troll in the rituals.

[/spoil]

1. EQ
Excellent spread and control over K45. Probably have the K on lockdown and are essentially guaranteed to last until mid-game assuming no internal collapse. They are maintaining strong rankings despite a decent amount of competition from others, given that they're rank 2 in ODD. Did well in the war (scrimmage) against Zulu! and as a result I would say they are a pretty big favorite to win the world (would say over 33% chance). They keep number of new recruits low, have decent leadership, and great positioning. Kept noblement of internals and barbs low (8.3% and 15% respectively). Very impressive.
Overall: 8.5/10

2. ISN
Still not a fan of them for things I have mentioned in the past. However now as a tribe they seem to be doing decent. They're pretty clumped in K54 although it is not too bad. They have similarly kept tribe changes low and have met equal aggression (ODD rank 3). They also have zero internals and 18% of their nobles have come from barbs, good numbers for early game. They have lost 3 villages to Panda though, and have a pretty large gap between their top members and their lower-middle members. They hold a large front with Panda so clearly something will happen between the two.
Overall: 5/10

3. Rabid
Started out as a premade and despite staying small, have experienced the quickest growth on the world. Having quite a massive average points for their members, and such a small number of tribe changes is impressive. They clearly have been fairly picky with who they recruit, as they took a surprisingly small number of SALT members. They have similarly kept internals and barb nobles to a minimum. They are going to have to fight AKATS and MILFS for control over K55, and I would call them the strong favorite. Very impressive tribe, whom have also been entertaining on the forums.
Overall: 8/10

4. Panda
As I said before, they're basically the better half of pRo? They're spread mostly in K54 and as I said in this same post, they have a pretty extensive front with ISN. It's prett clear that some conflict will have to occur between the two. I would say right now it's looking pretty even from both sides, however I would say I am on Panda's side, in hopes that they win. Good spread, low tribe changes, however slightly high barb nobles at 28% (although not much data which could account for a great deal of that). They also have SARCOW around most of their southern rim. Could be some future conflict there.
Overall: 7/10

5. DOKDO
A premade whom I'm fairly certain originally started in K45, and I'm pretty sure they all restarted over in K44. They recently caught up and have been quickly outgrowing most others around them after taking the better members of Deus. I'm a bit confused as to why around 25 of their members were kicked/left between January 3rd and 6th, but I can only assume it was mostly deadweight or people merging accounts. They have recently lost 2 fairly big members to EQ and RKing interestingly. I would say their only real threat (assuming no collapse) is BV, whom I would put my money on DOKDO.
Overall: 6.0/10

6. KING
As average of a tribe can come. Really not much to say. Read my previous reviews if you want to read something about their location. It's just so boring.
Overall: 5.0/10

7. BV
Possibly started as a premade, however turned into a mass recruiting tribe with almost 200 tribe changes. Still new members leaving and joining every day. Nothing special about them. Will soon war DOKDO. I doubt their abilities. Haven't done anything to impress me.
Overall: 4.0/10

8. SARCOW
An interesting and confusing tribe to me. I enjoy that they claim NWG and Panda as their family tribes. They have good spread and positioning. Fairly high number of new tribe changes. They hold pretty major fronts with ISN and PANDA. Some kind of war is going to have to take place between the three of them sooner or later. I recognize their duke, Lifelessclown, however know nothing about his leadership abilities. They are likely going to need some pretty good diplomacy to survive unless they can outsmart their competitors. I wish them the best of luck.
Overall: 6.5/10

9. TBS
Just like KING, they are about as average as tribes can come. Located directly in the core. Low recruitment numbers. Still don't like their profile. Yeah this is boring.
Overall: 4.5/10

10. AKATS
Don't really know too much about this tribe. Located around the middle of K55. I assume they took some of the lost members of SALT and are otherwise just local semi-skilled players. They've been chugging along, but are similarly very average. They are going to have to deal with Rabid sooner or later, which would scare me if I were them.
Overall: 4.5/10


Other good tribes:
MILFS - Rank 24 - 6.5/10
RKing - Rank 38 - 5.0/10
Trump - Rank 42 - 7.0/10
Old - Rank 67 - 4.0/10

Anyone else has no chance really.

MOOO'VE BITCH GET OUT OUR K

Instead of making a clown out of yourself, why not get back on w85 and wonder why are you guys getting cleared 1 after the other.

 

[mattcurr]

Rabid - Got an extremely nice & polite leader,

Ehh when he's emotionally stable, it's fairly easy to throw him off the deep end into a rude rant and have him run away for a few days just by being critical of him. Hint hint.

 

[Garrock]

Ehh when he's emotionally stable, it's fairly easy to throw him off the deep end into a rude rant and have him run away for a few days just by being critical of him. Hint hint.

love you too Matt. Yes I've been baited, yes I've taken part in the "flames" and yes, I've seen you go on the defensive on more than one occasion as well. We're people, it's in our nature to get emotionally involved, regardless of rationale. Doesn't mean I enjoy that aspect of the game, and when I do get drawn in, and realize I've become too emotionally involved, I do withdraw, true enough. It is not out of fear or defeatism... it's just that I've moved on and no longer wish to further dignify a hopeless discussion. When I say hopeless I'm referring to two seperate ones... 1) is when two people believe certain things that are completely opposite and the realization that a rational end to the conversation is impossible. The other being 2) Your being trolled and the person is merely yanking your chain to get a rise out of you. The first I have some respect for, the second, not so much.

But, have seen you and many others in similar states, so as far as I'm concerned it's pot vs. kettle

but cheers matt... miss you (a little)

 

[mattcurr]

that was a long winded way to say my post was accurate. Also I just think you're a giant hypocrite who doesn't see that he does everything he hates, not that I particularly care, I just find it amusing.

Skierdude9.. great job mate. I'll post my top 10 review soon..
