It's that time again! Let's get a real, comprehensive Top 12! Same disclaimer as before: This is disregarding any NAP's, PACTS, or ENEMIES my alliance has. This is MY personal opinion based on simple facts. Do your best not to be offended, K? (;
1. Bunny Killers: Since the last time I made a Top 12, they have gone from number 2 to number 1. However, just like before, they have also maintained their maxed out alliance count. Looking at them (along with their sister alliance, Gladiator Bunnies) on the map, they have a heavy presence in 44, with a good a amount of players in 54. They have next to no presence in 55, with a few members here and there in 45. Their alliance average is second, only losing out against THE GANG. With TG hot on their tail point-wise, I give them a FLOAT, so long as they focus on their primary power in 44.
2. THE GANG: Of course, this is my alliance, so bias warning. We're pretty cool, I guess? I'd give us a solid SINK in the next few months, since we'll be facing the wrath of MOB INC.
3. Gladiator Bunnies: Second verse, same as the first. Don't pull a Fracture and get a third alliance, otherwise I will be VERY disappointed in you. A FLOAT to this seemingly-MRA like group. Very Independent of you all, truly.
4. Children of the Corn: They have maintained their number 4 slot since my last Top 12. They seem to be taking this world a bit more seriously, which spells disaster towards anyone who stands in their way. Sure, they have 49/50 players, but said players are all veterans of the game, and have played together in the past. Honestly, these guys have a lot of potential in this world. Giving Corn a solid SWIM.
5. Order 66: Guys, what happened to Dub? He was my external buddy! These guys are sitting pretty in ocean 45, with a pretty core around the eastern border. Regrettably, however, these guys have a sister alliance in Jedi Mind Trick, so they lost major respect points from me already. FLOAT
6. Fracture: Sigh... This'll be good. Fracture, the alliance with not 1, not 2, but 3 alliances under its name. Naturally, 50/50 players. These guys are hanging out in 44, and I guarantee they would SINK if Bunnies decided to take them seriously at all. I didn't realize that a group of players could be more MRA-ish than little ElFish, but I guess I was mistaken. Whoever this TomHolman guy is, I'd love to know. These guys will SINK sooner or later, let's hope for sooner, yeah?
7. Hurricane of Jokers: The name is very representative of this joke of an alliance to be honest. They have several CS attempts on TG, but have yet to take a city from us. Wanna go for another try, guys? My players are begging for the BP! These guys are sitting in ocean 54, with an admittedly okay core. However, they lose major respect points, since they have a second alliance under their name. They get props for trying against us though, so they can have a FLOAT for now.
8. The Legion: These guys have a pretty weak core in 55, which should be cause for concern for them. They haven't really DONE anything in this server of note, in my opinion. They're just kind of THERE. They have a second alliance, so goodbye respect points! For now, I'll give them a FLOAT for effort, with an eventual SINK due to the alliances around them.
9. Jedi Mind Trick: I won't waste effort writing about these guys, refer to Order 66. FLOAT
10. MOB-INC: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Hi Hulk, hows your war going? Not well? SINK.
11. The Storm Dragons: Nice core, around the rim, no apparent enemies that I know of. These guys are sitting pretty in a relatively peaceful area, Say hello to the first Rim alliance of note. I give these guys a semi-solid SWIM, so long as they continue outwards, and not inwards. Let's revisit them later, shall we?
12. Fracture II: HAHAHA no. SINK. Nothing more needs to be said.
In short, this world makes me disappointed. The only alliance in the Top 12 without a sister alliance is THE GANG, Corn, Mob (which, by the way, they used to), and Storm Dragons. Again, very disappointed. The bigger they are, the harder I laugh at them (;
I was honestly feeling pretty lazy when making this, so forgive my lack of elaboration. Take this as you will everyone (;
