Welcome to the first edition of the Tau Times. In this issue there will be many interviews, gossip, bragging, and more. Now lets begin!
[spr]Meridian
What makes BridgeBurners such an unique Alliance? You HAVE to have humor with this group, or you'll be eaten alive...Quite literally.

What makes a good alliance? A good alliance KNOWS that this is just a game, but, also plays it like they're getting paid. If you're not playing on a daily basis for several hours, you're not doing it right.

Do you think Sofa King Sexy is a worthy opponent? WTH? Did you just pick that name out of a hat, Stogus? Or were you just looking at the rankings or the forums and just assuming they were our number one opponent? They aren't. We don't have a number one opponent. We love everybody. Hence the little heart on our flags. If only they would just jump on the 'love BB' train, we'd all get along beautifully. Well, that and move out of the oceans we're in. But, in all seriousness, I'm not sure I can answer your question about how worthy SKS is. You see, they're apart of this UN thingie and being as they can't do anything themselves against us, I can't properly judge how good of 'turtles', erm, players, they are. The whole UN just kind of blends to me.

Do you think this world will make world wonders? Of course this world will make it the the Wonders. We just need the UN peeps to do more and more colonizing so we can get those points up to enter into that era. Build, build, build, People!!!!

Who do you think is the noobiest player on Tau? I'm the noobiest player on Tau. But, that's okay because I'm just here to look pretty and smile a lot.

What's your favorite candy? Appraxiadaddy[/spr]

Thanks for the interview!

What makes Bridgeburners a unique alliance? We make sex jokes by the minute.

what does AD do to make this a good alliance? He makes sexy jokes by the minute.

Do you think Sofa King Sexy is a good opponent? If not, then who is? Yes they have been alright, I enjoy them actually being around kinda, they are fun. Except Witchking, that guy's just annoying and weird.

4.) What makes a good alliance? Have an alliance run by AD and yours truly.

5.) Do you think Tau will make World Wonders? well I sure hope so

6.) Do you think ArrZee is a good player? Ya he is a great player that is very inactive right now :) you know what that means!

7.) Who is the noobiest player in Tau? Well seeing how you are now here again... you.

8.) Are you confident that Bridgeburners will win World Wonders? 100% confident, we have a lot of tricks up our sleeve/big things coming as well as a lot of past winners and players in other servers helping us out.

9.) Do you use gold? Yes, just for Captain/Admin, I've spent about 100 total dollars within the 2 years of playing grepolis.

10.) What's your favorite type of candy? Protein bars.[/spr]

Thanks for the interview!

[spr]
Plague is the wize
1.) What makes BridgeBurners such a good alliance?
Team work is High and Morale is High and Wyld Chyld is always High

2.) Do you guys do propaganda to promote how you guys are?
No people know we are an aggressive alliance. every single alliance we are up against only build DLU / Birs and all have 25 walls with a tower. they are terrible and never going to win playing like this

3.) I have heard that you guys were at war with Sofa King Sexy and their academy. Is that true?
at war ? no... they hardly ever attack us or try to make a move on us im glad they finally took a island down near 55 and stopped playing by themselves simming in the outer rim... everyone knows O55 where BB is at is the place to be

4.) Also, do you respect ArrZee, as in is he a good player?
ive heard of him but never seen him play or attack, i have no idea

5.) Who is the noobiest player in this world and why?
Appraxiaddady , cause he snipes like 5 CS'es a day and never tells anyone

6.) Why is Appraxiadaddy such a good founder? How does he lead?
he lets me lead and he just plays good, hes my little warrior

7.) Are you guys willing to rim SKS at any cost?
at any cost? no were not going to move 3 oceans away to fight them lol they can come over here and fight us. they are no threat

8.) What's your favorite candy?
skittles , UNLEASH THE BEAST[/spr]

Thanks for the Interview!

[spr]Umadutrash

1.) What makes SKS a thriving alliance?
1.) We have the best players and we dont turtle.

2.) Do you think your alliance can win a war against BB?
2.) Easily, 80% of BB turtles, witchking has been in 054 for 2 months now and all BB did was turtle lol

3.) Why did you name yourself UmadUtrash?
3.) Because i make alot of people butthurt

4.) If you want to make a rant against BridgeBurners, post below. If not, then say pass
4.) I dont need to rant, they are who we thought they were..

5.) Is Arrzee a good leader? How so?
5.) Yes but he turtles alot lol

6.) Do you think youll get a crown after World Wonder finishes?
6.) Yes

7.) What makes a good alliance?
7.) Active aggressive players that dont catch feeling when they lose units

8.) Who is the noobiest player in Tau?
8.) Not sure, a lot of noobs in Tau

9.) Ive heard that many of your members were either rimmed or quit. What caused this lack of participation?
9.) Dont know one member that was rimmed, kinda hard when you win all of your battles.

10) What's your favorite candy?
10.) Sour apple lemonheads[/spr]

Thanks for the interview!

[spr]Keelee
what makes bridgeburners a good alliance? Everyone in it. Our aggressiveness and fun that we have joking around with each and everyone.

Is AD a good leader? Sometimes, definitely would not be successful without a couple us.

I heard AD makes a bunch of messed up jokes. Is that true? He is truly messed up in his head.
Is SKS a good alliance? I believe so? They haven't ever been threatened so far at all so who knows what will happen when they get more cities and their lts is spread out.

Do you think that Tau would make world wonders? We just need the UN to keep colonizing cities and we definitely will get there.

Do you think BB will get the crown? Only time will tell. 10 months is a long time away.
what's your favorite candy? Double Bubble, have to love that 2 secs of taste

-what makes a good alliance? an alliance where everyone has the same goals and work together.

- noobiest player in the world? There were quite a few but many of them don't exist anymore.
But just look at attackers, anyone below 100 should give you your answer (i believe butler is still below the top 100)

-if AD were to rage quit, what would you think of that? That he is a pansy and he let his relationship with meridian get the best of him.

- Put your rant here on any alliance you hate. I can't hate on the other alliances for building cities for us to take.

- Do you think I'm a noob? Who the hell are you? I just see you talking random nonsense on the externals.[/spr]

Thanks for the interview!

[spr]Appraxiadaddy
What made your alliance "the top of the world"?
I feel our alliance has been at the top of this world since we started it, even if that wasn't the case with points. There are many things that makes an alliance stay at the top of the world and I assure you points are not one of them

I have heard that you guys have declared war against Sofa King Sexy. What is the current score? 1st- we havent declared war on SKS and as a matter of fact there not even marked red on our maps. As far as score goes that is not something I have ever kept track of

Do you think this world would make World Wonders? of course, however I dont play for wonders and I wish more ppl had that same attitude

Are you guys ever going to join other worlds? I will and I hope that many others will come. I just wont play more than one world at a time as I feel that I have to fully dedicate myself

Who's the noobiest player you know? lol, I am sure everyone will say PTW so Ill just go with that one

How would you describe SKS? lol... really. TBH I wouldn't

What's your favorite Candy? hmmmm, I dont do candy much so if I had to answer I would say butlers candy cane lol

Who's your right hand man ( Your most trusted player, advisor, etc)?
Finally a good question.... Our alliance is successful because everyone carries there own weight and if one of us is not around or gaming less due to RL the others step up. I rely very heavily on many of the players in the alliance but everyone has something there best at which gives me alot of right hands.... I can truly say I am lucky enough to have many trusted players and people to turn to for advise rather than just one.

After goyan joined your alliance, your alliance ranking went straight to first place and never waivered. Why is that?
Well goyan has always been a force but it wasnt the fact of him joining alone. We were lucky enough to take in many good members from GO which was at that time the number 1 alliance in TAU that we were fighting

Do you think another alliance will over throw your alliance as the top of the World? Overthrow us lol.... I blv in quality over quantity and not taking in weak, non aggressive players which is why we have no academy and why after 2 days of being inactive your cities are eaten and you are booted unless of course we know about it.... We are lucky enough to have many players here who fit that mold but I would be happy if there were just five of us.... So on that note I dont think any alliance will be better than us in any aspect other than maybe total points

If your in BB your a hardcore gamer. Your not passive and you don't believe in sitting on your back waiting for someone to take your cities while you go and colonize. I believe we have and always will have the hardcore gamers in our alliance as good players wish to play with other good players. I know there are a few left out there in tau that arent under our banner yet but soon enough I think they will wake up and smell the coffee and join us, makes it so much funner for everyone lol[/spr]

Thanks for the Interview!

[spr]

wyld chyld

who decided on the name BridgeBurners ?
it was there before my time. i wouldn't mind seeing it change

Certain alliances are just terrible...name some alliances in Tau that you think are bad.
that's not nice, so i can't say anything at all.

Do you think that Tau will make World Wonders?

of course

What would you define a noob?
you for asking question number 3

What's your favorite candy?
12 flavor gummi worms, or any candy with thc in it

Why do people use light ships so much?
you must be a noob if you are asking why use lightships. read wiki. that is the dumbest question. if this were a real interview it would be over now because of stupidity of that question.[/spr]

Thanks for the interview!

[spr]Qmelox
1.) How did this alliance last for such a long time and still remained one of the top alliances in the world?
1. Teamwork and leaders with previous world experience.

2.) Do you think this world will make world wonders?
2. Why not?

3.) Is your alliance aggressive? Or is your alliance one of those simming alliances that colonize?
3. Aggressive if you attack us first - otherwise were a friendly bunch of players.

4.) Do you believe that you will get DA CROWN?

4. Would not be here otherwise.

5.) Do you consider your alliance as an MRA?
5. No.

6.) What are your thoughts on BridgeBurners?
6. Bridgeburners have a lot of good players. Although I have heard that they break agreements, some of their players cheat, and they use players to spy on alliances. All of which my alliance condemns and have even kicked out players that we have caught breaking our principles against spying and cheating.

7.) What are your predictions that will happen in the next few months?
7. I'll check my crystal ball and get back to you. Just to say in passing - the world will get smaller as players leave for RL reasons, or they realise that they will not win with the alliance they are in - not Molon Labe.

8.) What is your favorite candy?
8. Candy is very bad for you, eat salads.................. saying that.................. Snickers.[/spr]

Thanks for the Interview!

[spr]BigBadRomo

Player from BridgeBurners

1.) OK, ive heard that Appraxiadaddy makes messed up jokes. Is that true?
If you call low budget porn messed up jokes, then yes. He's the biggest joker around. Just look up leprechaun porn

2.) Why is Bridgeburners at the top? Because we are the most active bunch of monkeys around

3.) Why did Bridgeburners become so powerful? Because nobody takes bananas from us!

4.) It says " no pacts" on your alliance profile. Is that actually true that you dont have pacts? Yes and NO, maybe so

5.) Which alliance is better, SKS or Molon Lab? now this is a tough question, weve got the piggly wigglies vs the simmers, hmm i think ill choose the simmers because ive seen what sks can do... "cricket cricket"

6.) I heard theres a relationship between AD and Meridian. Is that true or is that a hoax? This is true as i am the offspring of them and am AD's Eldest child

7.) Was the name of the alliance always Bridgeburners? Or was it something else before? I think they used to call it the BridgeButts or something like that[/spr]

Thanks for the Interview! This concludes all interviews!

The End of BridgeBurners?

the following will give you evidence of why it might fall

image_zpsbb0090ae.jpg

image_zpsb382cb54.jpg


Red is Bridgeburners
yellow is sofaKing Sexy
Green is Molon Lab

With the internal conquests and small size, wouldn't you think that Bridgeburners were the ACTUAL simmers maxing out their cities so that they could stay at the top? Bridgeburners are the red cities and they seem relatively small compared to the other empires,

BridgeBurners-
Average points/ city-9741

Sofa king sexy
Average points / city-9439

Sempervic-
Average points/ city-8685

Molon labe
Average pt/ city-9876

Now who's the real simmers? Bridge Burners and Molon Labe are our #2 and our #1 respectively...and all alliances claim their opponents are turtling. So lets all assume everyone is Turtling and simming. Have fun!

A little one sided on showing evidence on "why bridgeburners might fall". why dont you post all our conquests against our enemies the past couple days....

internal conquests are always part of the game, sks is taking in milominderbinders cities as well right now

and the map doesnt mean much because you are also putting on ml/sks academies...

i didnt put in academies so everything would be fair

Okay. Well, we have 331 more cities then the next alliance in a smaller area which means we are more compact.

We need a storyline for this newspaper so you can report about something

There's also a reason why i only said im making ONE issue. I was thinking what would happen if I ridiculed BB. Unfortunately I was correct into saying that you all did not like the newspaper. Now I shall return to Gythium and make the next issue there.

You just got through saying it's 'in the works' for the rest of it. I'm waiting for the 'other side' of this paper. You asked about SKS, yet, didn't include their stats. You didn't include stats for ML either. I'm not understanding what you're doing here in regards to an actual paper.
You didn't ask about reports, screen shots, or even 'intercepted' messages either side may have received. How is this reporting if you're not actually reporting the facts on ALL sides?

Sounds and looks to me that you just want to stir the pot and not doing any real work here. Don't start something if you're not going to finish it. You just waste everybody's time here and I'm not even talking about BridgeBurners. I'm talking about the 'other alliances' you said you were going to include in this little endeavor. For example, Why ask about SKS if you're not going to give ALL their members an equal voice in this? What about Maggots or Origins? Now, THOSE alliances, I'm interested in reading about and even respect a few of their GOOD players.

If you're going to do a paper, Stogus. Do a freakin' paper. Don't be a troll.

I told you, this is the last issue im doing for tau. How about YOU do it?
 

DeletedUser7919

Guest
Because I didn't promise I would do it. I would never make a commitment like that if I knew I had no intention of following through with it, Stogus.

I'm very dissappointed in you, Stogus. I KNOW you CAN do this. You just seem to enjoy the image you have. I honestly don't know why I keep sticking up for you or even giving you the benefit of any doubt. Yes, it's hard work, but, think about how good you'd feel if you actually followed through with this and made something wonderful out of it.

Stogus u did a pretty good job, i wish more interviews came from other alliances....

P.S. u can include our stats, even if u guys kick out players before we actually finish conquesting them it doesnt matter. We are clearly winning conquesting cities. Now i can show u 2 weeks worth of me smashing BB cities, and other SKS members can as well. So who is turtling? I can provide as much proof as you like.
I can show you proof of BB getting support from other alliances, i can show you proof of stacked cities and BB turtling, whatever you need, i can prove.

You show me yours, I'll show you mine. *Winks*

OH.... tell you what mr mad.....

When you guys become an alliance that we actually concentrate on as an alliance you can show me proof then. Right now you only have a handful of cities that you guys took from inactive players, ghost or other alliances that we could not hit due to morale and those cities are stacked. But as you get a lil more cities here and as the lines spread that will change

You also are fighting no one else so your able to drum up alot of support unlike us who are fighting everyone.....

You keep talking, I know it makes you feel better but when the fighting starts well see who talks then. its not long before this coalition of yours fails and we choose one of you to ally and when that happens the others who choose not to fight with us will be looking for another server...

To bad many of you are either to proud, to blind or to noobish to see the writing on the wall... It has been there the minute this UN thing has started

I mean you all got the nerve to follow witchking the guy who puts winner of world blah blah blah at the end of every message, patheitc

Uhmm Stogus, you do realize that the reason we have high city points is that our enemy alliances are building them up for us lol right. Now how about you look at REAl statistics like DBP/ABP/alliance fighters, etc.. rather then some lame city points that no one cares about. This newspaper is just a mess, wrong and lame. Sorry. Should have had Charl do it.

how about you show me proof of you going after one of our top players??? or any top player on this server...

and grats on taking the novice/liam marcus cities, they logged on maybe once every 2 days. we couldnt do all that much to help them out since they wouldnt tell us anything. whatever makes you feel good

and tell your alliance thanks for the ridiculous amount of bp you guys gave us for going after a player of ours with 1 city LOL. as one of your members has said, "my alliance doesnt go after anyone with 100% morale"

I think i like SKS better than BB now....because of the following reasons:
- Both of you guys turtle but recently what Ive been seeing is that BB has been having lots of internal conquests which shows a sign of a falling alliance

- SKS has gained more and more ground each day, they have slowly caught up to you guys, even without you guys knowing

-Umad and his gang is being humble and BB is bragging about their 1 city

you must really not look at stats...internal conquests are a constant part of this game. with it being long people always come and go. sks has slowed wayyyy down now that the "easy targets" are gone. they havent taken a city of ours in almost 2 weeks while we have taken 3.

we are also actually fighting other alliances unlike them so you have to look at those stats too. the past couple days we have taken 11 cities from origins with more in progress. the last 2 weeks we have taken 12 cities from maggots while they have taken 2.

and despite taking in our inactives we are still taking more cities from our enemy then they are from us. Not sure how that points to us as a falling alliance....
