Oliver, I love you man! But let's not be silly here. We all know about emails to our members asking them to be spies for Matter. Your own players sent these and admit to it - I think it's part of the game but not everyone cares for it. Some are fighters, some love defense, some love diplomacy, others like the spy games. It all makes Grepo a good and challenging game. I personally don't like spies and maybe you don't either. Don't get me wrong I don't object to them anymore than someone who likes beef wouldn't object to someone else eating chicken. I think fighting head on is the beef - and yes we did plenty of that in US21 for sure. Spies are like the chicken and not to my taste.
So take it back Oliver - "You know we don't operate that way". You, and all of us know that it's an important aspect of Matter strategy. Not wrong and within the rules but just not my style.
Well you and I are of the same opinion on spies.. However its a part of the game in every world..
But I still think you are mistaken. You know Bellos. You read his rants on the forums and his distaste of foos. You know he likes to stir the pot. He sends a message to an entire alliance asking then if they want to be a spy. This includes leadership. You really call that an attempt at obtaining spies? Why do you think we find it so funny?
for some reason you guys still cant see that.
Same in upsilon.. other alliances did their best to insert spies into our alliance.. AR was even willing to completely collapse the west by having players leave the top alliance in an attempt to join us and get on our wonder islands.. We never had to plan anything like that. You know our group likes to fight. Should be a fun world.
As for the person who brought up stats.. I think most people here know i
LOVE stats.. but i mean really? World is what 2 months old? It has been overrun by a very favorable and long event which has given heavy gold users a very large edge. Notice I havent even made a sink/swim yet.. and I love those.. Talk to me in another 2-3 months and we will see about stats. Another thing your stats do not reflect, and you slightly hinted at this is that Matter alliances are spread between 3 groups.. Now I am not asking you to compare the total points of 3 alliances compared to one.. No.. instead lets look at the top 50 players on each side and compare those numbers.
Now it is quite late so I wont add everything up, but lets see how many fighters rank in the top 100 and where. If you still want to argue stats, I can continue to break things down as such.
This is only ABP:
#1-10:
Matters-3,
Infamous-2
#11-20:
Matters-3,
Infamous-1
#21-30:
Matters-6,
Infamous-1
#31-40:
Matters-4,
Infamous-1
#41-50:
Matters-2,
Infamous-2
#51-60:
Matters-0,
Infamous-4
#61-70:
Matters-5,
Infamous-2
#71-80:
Matters-0,
Infamous-2
#81-90:
Matters-0,
Infamous-1
#91-100:
Matters-3,
Infamous-0
Total:
Matters:26
Infamous:16
So your point was that Infamous is a better collection of players. Maybe based on average, because based on size it is 3:1. But you miss the point when you automatically assume that because the average is higher, that the Matters do not have as many, or in this case, more top attackers at this point.
But like I said, plenty is skewed at this point. We will see where things lie in a few months. Then the cream will rise to the top
