He didn't attack. Oh, he sent some attacks now and then, but never anything serious. Picked off the odd village, and ate a few enemy villagers when the players had quit or were completely inactive.
Lemme put it this way; I took more villagers from the only good enemy player in that area than his whole tribe put together.
He was also ridiculously territorial - for instance, one of the guys in the tribe I'm in took a couple of enemy villages in between his villages. Those villages had been there for ages, and he hadn't done anything about it. He went completely nuts, and started dragging out old agreements that he himself had broken repeatedly.
Yes, he's a fast grower - on inactives (
judge for yourself, if you want ). Anyone can do that.
It's probably his diplomatic skills, or lack thereof, that marks him out. Quite impossible to work with, as he is unable to see that he's doing what he usually accused others off. All the threats he enjoyed throwing around probably didn't help - in addition, he never seemed to find the courage to back them up.
Now, it might've been a nice tribe to be in - I wouldn't know. They had one or two decent fighters, but as a whole? Meh.
Respecting Andi as a player, or a person for that matter? From my experiences with him? Not gonna happen.
