First off Ronnie you quit your account with no fight so you have no room to talk here
At least @night put up a fight even though the odds were heavily against them.
You state the most obvious crap like "keep nobling" wow ground breaking stuff bro! Some of your assumptions are correct though. @night had a strong core of loyal warriors such as -
Glassbilen
Four Nerds
Nocturne - two of the original players here moved to D3athir0n after the owners quit
Kate 2
Harambe
However having a great core does not mean an automatic win. Many players in @night expected it to be an auto-win because we had this core of great players so they didnt feel the need to fight hard and put in the extra hours. When they realized it would not be an easy win and that they would have to work hard, many quit and proved they were truly cowards. I wont name and shame them here. Wizard can look at the war stats and see who they are.
Then there were others who were worse than the cowards who quit who left @night to join Wizard purely out of fear and selfishness. I hope wizard doesnt let these pathetic souls get a win they dont deserve. These players I will name and shame -
Daspoofer aka Professor Snape - spied in @night and helped wizard defend our ops
Mr Kiwi - has 0 loyalty to anyone but himself as proven by his backstabbing ARR and stripe and @night
These players who had no backbone could not be forced to have one. They will simply hide in any tribe they can to survive until they can join the winning side and ride the coat tails of true warriors.
Having said that, I take my hat off to the wizard players who withstood many ops without collapsing or trying to join @night. I have a lot of respect for this type of player. The players in wizard who were not front line were also driven to win and did their jobs supporting and faking well, they did not expect the front liners to do all the work as many in @night did.
I wish we could have a team of 60 Mintcreams (glassbilen) but thats obviously not possible. Pre-mades are not usually full tribes, people quit, recruitment is necessary, and sometimes you recruit terrible players who wont put in the time it takes to win. Perhaps we should not have taken in the players from K44 (AD/BS) and Life. Perhaps we should have handled diplomacy differently. It is what it is though
I had fun while I played, thats all that mattered to me.
Some times tribal wars simply comes down to what tribe will waste more time on the game, wizard players won that battle and deserve to win for that reason.
