Question

[DeletedUser]

Pfft, all the effort to embarrass someone for not sending a "tight" train, I've always found this sort of thing amusing.

Maybe the attacker didn't think the defender was worth the effort. Gummer's right, there are a ton of different reasons why a train could possibly be sloppy. And some of them might very well be embarrassing for the defender. So perhaps instead of immediately jumping to flame mode, you should try sticking to defending (and if you do that well then go ahead give yourself props...see, positive reinforcement).

Flaming just makes people like myself want to join in and help the attacker...with my own sloppy trains just to make a point.

im sorry Lambert i seem to be picking on you, but i must say. let's look at these facts

The most points this player had was 110k points
http://www.twstats.com/en44/index.php?page=player&id=2127523

he has managed to lose three villages while gaining +1,478,098 ODD, meaning he has lost quite a bit of defence. Anybody will lose villages at that size even if he does send 30 second trains. we are all human(except me, im a robot i dont sleep) sometimes you can find a sitter sometimes you cant. Hi55555 has 568 villages. Meaning at least 200 nukes. And if he changed his strategy to nuke/noble then he obviously doesnt have a chance. I give props to this dude, for point differnces and his ODD gain. if a 5million point player losses all his nukes then that's just sad.

There even close enough to send nobles back and forth. good old start up way

Honestly, the player haven't gotten any points for about a three weeks and even then, he's only nobled barbarians so he was likely to have all his troops available and no one knows if he was a turtle... So that kind of ODD isn't actually "good", also considering the morale.

Also, for a 5 million player, it's more like 10-15 million ODD for all his nukes.

so the village is stacked and needs 5 to kill it with 100% morale thats going to take 10 at 50% the numbers only get bigger as the stack gets bigger = more ODD

That's if Hi5555 wasn't mass nuking. If he would have hit all of the villages at the same time, then the stacks wouldn't have been as much. Look at how close both players are and the amount of villages they have in that area. Hi5555 should have been able to clear almost, if not, all of them before he sent close range nobles. The times for a 30 second train could be from a mobile device. If they are, then I want to know what he has because I haven't been able to send any train faster than 35 seconds on my iPod or blackberry.

All I can say is that it looks like poor judgment on Hi5555's part, but we all do that at times so it isn't that big of a deal.

Talk to Storm then or Ex-Ram Vs Legacy. we have always made fun of people for the trains they send and people will continue to embarass another player. it's like an unwritten rule of TW. make fun of the players who dont send 150ms trains

I have attacked people before with little morale and they have never gained more then a million ODD. it's called smart attacking. So maybe we should change the subjuct to. Hi5555 cant attack

Edit way late: BTW he didnt even have full point villages. meaning Rax and stable are not full level. Which could also possibly mean his Farm wasnt Level 30 meaning he doesnt have "full troops" All Hypothetical obviously

so the village is stacked and needs 5 to kill it with 100% morale thats going to take 10 at 50% the numbers only get bigger as the stack gets bigger = more ODD

Who said he's stacked?? if i see reports of him being stacked then argument is over and i shut up But then we have to look at tech levels. lol can i sit both accounts and make judgments?

There are so many variables in this game to make a proper judgement

[4:05:45 PM] (lambezz/Dgod420): lossing all nukes to get into top 15 ODA was not worth it

noow thats from w53 skype but the principle applies, you make fun of hi5555 but who sacrifices there off for a oda rank in early world stage?

What exactly is your point?

[2:07:29 PM] Lambezz: i didnt sacrifce the guy didnt have many troops when i scouted but he got uber stacked

H15555 has 200 nukes, i have 3. there is a little differnce when the guy i was atttacking managed to have 10kspears and swords. And they werent even full nukes on W53

Let's just say you can't compare late game to early game. Late game you wait for full nukes, early game you dont. I rarely ever get attacked by half nukes in W44

 

[DeletedUser]

still it was a noob risk lol

 

[DeletedUser]

TW is all about taking Risk. if you like hugging have fun. I dont care if i rimmed. i will take risks in this game if it benefits me

 

[DeletedUser]

I get attacked by half nukes in W44 all the time, cause my friendly neighbor to the north is a noob

I fixed it for you Lamby :icon_biggrin:

 

[DeletedUser]

Well you didnt call them nukes FYI. The term you used was fire crackers

lambezz on 09.11. at 07:22
are all the nukes like that?

Miyamoto.Musashi on 09.11. at 07:43
Nukes are generally better than that.
Those are more like fire crackers =P

I know, and it drives me nuts. Flaming based on a perceived way we're "supposed" to play is just a bunch of hot air, when all that really matters is whether or not you're here next week and whether or not you still have your villies.

 

[DeletedUser]

Elo guys, oh and gummers right, sometimes i cbb to even send mili trains when its small players.

Hows it going lamby nd gummer.

Ohh no Arkidase is here :icon_razz:

Im still playing. surprised huh?? :lol:

I can send 15 seconds long trains with Iphone and miniOpera, but sometimes some attacks doesnt start and that ends in trains >1 min

 

[DeletedUser]

Might need to try miniOpera to see what shortcuts I can still use on it

 

[DeletedUser]

Im not on here to flame anyone i was just pointing out that he should really be embarrassed about all this. I probably wont be around for another week but i think i did a really good job holding off a player at his size. I did most of it by myself aswell and i am now just getting enough support to stop some of his nukes. Hes proly sent about 80 nukes and ive proly stopped atleast 50-60 of them. And yes my tech levels are all lvl 10, i do know how to play this game a little bit lol.

 

[DeletedUser]

tbf he prolly underestimated you so he cba to send normal trains, but tbf 10-20 seconds between nobles is bad even for bog standard trains
