Congratulations to Wobble on Their Tenth Merge!

[DeletedUser108786]

Standards are a funny thing. They are different depending on the person that has them. Usually clouded by the holders bloated opinion of themselves. If they can send noble trains in under 15 seconds then they are far from the worst member of Wobble, ever ever.

I can do much much more than send a noble train under that time. If that is the least you expect from me then you will be alright with what i can do.

3. Merge

To merge is an act of strange movement when an object or creature will mysteriously move in a sidewways fashion in a direction.
This action is usually seen in a split second as the merging object usually kills or attacks the watching creature.

Watching creature: Wtf that voodoo just merged ten lanes and though my car then it exploded?!?!
Voodoo: MMMMMMMMM MERGING VOODOO!!!!!

How tight your noble trains are is possibly one of the worst indicators of ability. As a duke, I look for aggression, intelligence and good communication in recruits. The abysmal nobling records display a lack of aggression, and whoever is posting hasn't impressed me on the last two credentials although I don't wish to insult.

How well a person can play, knowledge of the game and experience putting those to use are the only indications of ability. What you are saying is that you recruit based on a person's susceptibility to succumb to the tribal atmosphere. I agree wholeheartedly on that but... You made this thread on the basis that you suspect these players are bad at the game and shouldn't have been recruited because of that but if you recruit based on strength of teamwork, and those strengths associated with that, then why are you condemning Wobble for presumably not using ingame ability as the be all and end all of recruitment?

Because the nature of one's aggression is a combination of ability and character. If someone has bad in-game ability they either have too low aggression and survive off internals and other freebies or are too aggressive as they do not comprehend how to spend troops and end up getting rimmed early on.

I think the most noteworthy thing about this thread is that ted_terror is complaining about it in the exact way that people complained about him back when he got his invite. I find that rather distasteful.

I'm sorry, but I find this hilarious.

There are several massive differences.

A) I came from a tribe who had been at war with Wobble for over a month.
B) I was the 2nd most hit player on the world at that point, and the only player in NIR who had been under 2 separate op's by Wobble (with another one planned).
C) I was joint top caps for that war[for our side, 3 players in Wobble had more], along with stewinthepot(who did awesomely offensively, but I think he would admit he didn't have much defending of his own account to do).
D) Very few people went from 60K (when the war began) to 500K much quicker while actively in a war.
E) No-one has gone from 600K - 2.7 million faster than me right now. That is a fact, hence why I've gone from a semi-destroyed account, outside the top 200, to a top 30 account.

For this last point, I'm going to use a comparison, for myself to the world #1. This is not arrogance, this is fact. Vol is a fantastic player, and well deserving of his #1 spot. Unfortunately TW stats only lets people go back 3 months. So I'm going to have to take it from 900K to 2.7million.

So lets see how well our world #1(by 500K) did:
2012-12-11 Volvol123 TDW 5. 912,904 97 1,908,266 1,503,033 405,233
2013-02-10 Volvol123 Wobble 8. +2,740,360 +286 +16,361,291 +13,561,250 +2,800,041

That is 61 days.

Myself:

2013-01-24 eddiecesc Wobble 109. +941,248 +97 +14,081,768 +3,729,292 +10,352,476
2013-03-10 eddiecesc Wobble 30. +2,740,796 +283 +25,341,178 +13,361,521 =11,979,657

That is 45 days. Yes I began 30K more, but the day before I gained 70K, the day before that I gained 90K, and the day before that, I gained 120K.

Yes, you can question some of the sources, but I think vol would also agree he has seen some freebies during his time.

Also, note both our ODA's are very similar at the point I am at right now, so don't say I've had it easy. That is bs. I would have higher ODA, if AAA didn't stop dodging, or having terrible stacks.

Edit: I'm not saying I'm better than vol, or anyone else for that matter. I am just presenting the stats, which clearly show my difference from a lot of people, and why I deserved to get into Wobble. Make of it what you will.

Your a noob tho, by nadir's logic, because you know, you've merged 1000 times......

Tl;dr thread seemed pointless, Nadir trying to spread crap, nobody listening, Ted feeding the trolls for personal pleasure. Seems pretty average of these externals

Absolutely not. As Ted proved in his post above, his circumstances allowed for the fact that he was given internals. I give my front line players priority to internals as they find it hard to grow, along with any players I've recruited who are hit hard. We work by merit in TB! and your new recruits have not merited their internals.

As usual, thanks for the insight into this thread Ali.

 

[Stewinthepot]

Our new recruits were brought in to lead the tribe. Its supposed to be a secret but me vusn and sdcz are the new dukes the wobble.

 

[DeletedUser]

Dont forget Flux! The war god.

 

[DeletedUser107679]

Here Elctrofool is again talking about wobble history, just as I called him out on his Yarr bullcrap Sumner is calling him out on this. Really electrofool either you educate yourself on our tribe or you stop talking about our history because I can guarantee former dukes and barons know more in said matters then you. Early wooble was not elitist in any sense of the word. We had some of this games best players we had some very bad ones. Our mindset coming into this world was just to have fun and never to give a hoot, not to be pr000, been there done that so many times already.

Urgh, perhaps you ought to read the last few pages before having me repeat the same points again.

To be fair to ted, Sumner did question his in-game abilities to begin with.

 

[DeletedUser]

Because the nature of one's aggression is a combination of ability and character. If someone has bad in-game ability they either have too low aggression and survive off internals and other freebies or are too aggressive as they do not comprehend how to spend troops and end up getting rimmed early on.

I could also sit here for months building nothing but nukes and sending them off at regular intervals with crappy timed trains. Lack of ability but plenty aggressive. Sometimes they go hand in hand but by no means does aggression equate to ability.

...

You deserved to be eaten since at that point you had very little left to defend with. It was only by Deb's good graces that you got a chance to prove yourself, a chance that you are now saying should be denied to somebody else for apparently no reason other than "crap stats".

To be fair to ted, Sumner did question his in-game abilities to begin with.

No I didn't.

Yes, that would be fine in a recruit. As long as he communicates well, I can teach him to be a better player and more effective. That's not a problem. It's the attitude that matters to me more than the skill.

So, we agree that aggression doesn't equate to ability then? Guuurd.

 

[DeletedUser3932]

If I had been eaten, then all it would have shown, is the NIR was a merge, and not good recruitment. Because I was the only one in NIR's side to have shown both aspects or defense and offense.

I wasn't given a chance, I deserved it. If a place hadn't been given, then it would have just showed how Wobble were just recruiting to the top based on points.

But that is not what happened, Wobble showed they were a good tribe at the time, by recruiting based on merit, not on points.

Edit: As for me not giving these players a chance, it was not down to me, and thus they are in Wobble. We will see how they get on. And so long as they do all the things I do, then I won't have an issue with them being here.

 

[DeletedUser]

Wobble has never striven to be elite nor (at least in my time) claimed to be elite.

Edit: In fact; I've been known to make small tribes in worlds solely to make trouble for tribes that do claim to be elite.

You back playing this game..? I have lost my co player`s and i,m not playing any play..lol

Or for a superior position on the map.
