Growth will not win this world. Period. Some of you will, but the tribe as a whole is on its way down the cliff.
I am not here to trashtalk you, I find most of you pleasant to talk with, however you are so blinded by Taylors promises(I am referring to his countless claims about Growth winning the world, like it's a done deal), that you fail to see the inevitable.
You have nobody to blame but Tuz. He let his emotions control his actions, and thus the actions of Growth. He turned down several big, skilled and/or key players out of nothing but his personal emotions, stubbornes and "pride". I'll give TWJ and SHF as an example of this. Most, if not all of you, wanted these two in the tribe, and you know it.
Meanwhile, NME was reaping the benefits of Taylors poor leadership decisions, condescending attitude and stubbornes when it came to bringing in some fresh meat. Net result? The size gap between Growth and NME is over 140m points. That is about 15 000 villages you guys would have to noble just to break even.
At the end of the day, when you look at why we crossed the bridge, it was only the most logical thing to do. Look at the map. We are completely surrounded by NME. We are not on the front, we ARE the front. If we want to survive, and in the end win this world, there is no alternative to this. And that is the only thing our minds are set to: winning this world. Our best chances of achieving that goal is if we side with NME.
So, enjoy your game and make it fun for us. I honestly hope to see some of you follow our lead and end up on this side of the bridge. Put 2 and 2 together, do whats best for you. Each and every one of you has put alot of time and money into this world, you might aswell be on the winning side.
