When you compare us to "Rum-esque" in some ways i would take that as a compliment. If you mean a tribe that continues whatever the odds like RUM has, a tribe that no matter how many villages you take they still keep going like RUM has. Even though people still laugh at RUM for falling apart atleast they managed to carry on fighting instead of falling apart and splitting off into lots of new tribes like some other tribe i can think of....cough ceg cough
Umm Cpt_Jack, whats happened to your memory? ...
Remember the weeks before the RUM war? RUM had 50 tribes...
Than the rumours began about a possible war with FTR, XiG, ATEN etc and even before war was declared RUM had about 20 tribes left... with almost all the strong ones gone...
So yeah, they did manage to fight and split off into alot of new tribes... if you were able to see look trough all your members's tribechanges you'll find that at least 25% came from RUM...
But they did not manage to keep on fighting, they were so badly organised that they just died in area's where there were a few takes and lived a bit longer in strong area's (Like RUMTXB and TXP and of course RUM47)
