Hmm, if you would just stop to deny everything that happens then I'm sure that people would be nicer.
Since when do i deny everything that happens, all i do is give a frank responce on the spin that you amongst other forumers put on statements.
Yes PKs lose villages, are we geting Owned(essentially what TSE are trying to suggest) and my answer is no.
People keep on braging about taking out some PKs players, do i deny these players were lost? no, is it good for PKs they were lost? no.
My points have been about the significance of these losses, many anti LFKD posters have made it out as the downfall of PKs. We are losing players to the mighty what ever. End of the day all tribes have lost players and some players are more useful than others. PKs losing a perma sat account(which belieive it or not are not as common in PKs as some flamers would like to suggrst) in the middle of a sea of red is really nothing to us. Like what are we honestly going to do? Send 200 defence cities worth of defence to protect these accounts? Sometimes it's better to let go of your liabilities.
As for flamers who claim that there is no difference between isolated accounts and ones that have backing.
I will explain this for the last time.
LFKD removed the vast majority of the enemy easy targets a long long time ago. This is because we have been actively at war a much longer time. Hence what has been left is a fairly regular battle front around all the core, 2 sides with many players of both sides in that area. But non LFKD have only recently(relatively) been attacking, Hence their first targets are clearly those that are close and easy pickings. These are LFKD players who stray away from the main battle fronts. The reasons for this may be how they were recruited, or maybe they have spread themselves to far, such as destino. Either way it is partially their fault and to a lesser degree LFKD's fault for letting them get that way.
there explained is how these isolated players have arrisen.
Now comes the problem that they are very very hard to defend as they have a very high majority of villages that are under potential threat. Hence many have fallen, and more will fall. Untill what is left is the main battle fronts, and the few super active well supported one man islands that survive.
Some people have claimed players like trhorthen and chackal were not isolated. I sat these players at points, i have seen the map. When nearly all your villages are within 5 of a red dot. Your nearest ally is spread out and can't afford to send you anything major, and or in chackals case he was ironhelms. Then your sure as hell isolated and in big big trouble, i honestly find the debate farsical that they can be listed as anything else.
Why these losses are not considered that important to us?
Because we expect to lose them. It's not the downfall of any tribe or signs of things to come. It's just the loss of villages via scirmishes that anyone with a brain would expect to happen.
Have LFKD lost any major ground over these players?
My answer is no, and i am free to have my opinion as these players are not holding ground that we can maintain or grow from. It's not good for us, but no loss of villages is. What matters is the significance some PnPers put on these losses. This is what i argue against. There is no way i will accept statements that i belieive are flawed. If LFKD in the past have boasted about taking out isolated enemy in the same manner then they are also wrong to do so imo.
Now to the main issue STATS.!
These are why i have argued against the many stat topics.
1. Stats is a very very complicated subject. You simply can't put up any statistic and say haha look at poor PKs. etc etc... Stats in real terms prove nothing as causation is an unproven part of maths and is really a philoshical topic. Hence it's a matter of interperating them. Which brings in an infinite array of problems. Hence the stats need to be well thought out, well analysed and sensibly projected. They are open to being abused to show one story more than another.
Hence here we come to my issue with many of the stats shown, including LFKD posters stats.
*Most the stats have just been copied and pasted from tw stats showing something the said poster wants people to see.
*They have a biast opening statement, in arghoses case a very mature LFKD rofl LFKD, (i hear he is in his 30's). Followed by no indepth description of what they show or why they have come about. There is little if no debate about what they mean or other possible interptations. Quite simple OMG LFKD losing some villages. We know that, we have given an explanation and are happy about how our game is going. While it seems everyone is in desperate need to remind us.
Hence i am forced to give reasons in these poor excuses of pnp topics to why the stats being shown are flawed and in most cases show nothing more than a bunch of world conqoure stats.
Bringing me to my main point,
How many tribes have fallen so far? 100's
Now how have they fallen?
99.9% (a guess but am sure most ppl are with me)
have fallen because morale has droped, people have left , leaders have given up ect ect. Not because they have all been conqoured.
Hence why conqoure stats alone to me are about as useful as kk. Course they have a use but as i have said in my topic about OD, it is all about the context and many many other factors. Simply posting stats, including OD stats prove next to nothing in real terms with out other things taken into account.
If you don't bother to read all my post please don't reply.
Thanks
