We do give you props, you are doing a fantastic job for a tribe your size, but war is not an excuse for lack of growth. If you are really as good as you say you are, you would be able to take down die.(who face it have numbers but thats it..) and still grow at everyone elses pace. We may not have taken AS hard a road as you, that may work out as a wise decision for us, the future will tell, but we in no way took an easy road. We took on the #3 tribe, hell we even let them know they were our next target. We could have just launched the nukes and let them figure it out for themselves but we wanted a challenge. We also made it 1v1 to make it even more of a challenge for us(no bs about decides pallys, that is long in the past).
So as for your 'pheonx went the harder road', you may have went a hard road, but that is not to say you are the only ones. Again you try to compare things that are in no way possible to compare!
Ahhh... finally. you concede my very point to me.
Die is falling, we were originally in a 2 v 1, and you can ask my mates.. i predicted and instigated both tribes to declare on us...
Now, this is not an excuse,... its merely a point. We been with 10-15 ish players over the majority of the war. Now we have more, thus you will see more growth than before.
Ok, now that we have finally reached something we can work with... That was my point all along. you guys have taken a few easier barbs at opportune times (or inactives) and with that growth, your graph spiked upwards, while phoenx has continued to grow sporadically.. .This is because of that HUGE tactical advantage that Die has enjoyed....
More supports, far more nukes, (only THE has taken more nukes than Pheonx) and thus making it far harder for us to grow. that is where our barbs come in, as they dont take any troops to noble, and based upon their great locations in our existing spheres.. they were a smart tactical move as Die war is a war, not a skirmish or a battle...
ANyways, im glad someone over there finally admitted..
As for your war with O, i predicted that tbh... so see, i did have faith in ya... im just tired of picking fights with Die who never responds in pnp....
