Is it possible, given the status of the alliance server these days to achieve top 10 finish tagged / untagged without FA?

Urr...top10 is easy considering how lazy people are. Guys who play seriously for 10 days can get top10 without aid.

You kidding me?

Tagged it is EASY for any good player. In fact most finishes are unaided up there. Check Bakku from last set. He broke 300mill unaided.

Untagged? Not a chance in hell. You need to keep way too much military to ever stock enough.

For the record, I don't think obtaining a top 10 is easy.

t10 is easy as long as you spend some time on it.

back in the day, t100 was the harder than getting a t10 today IMO.

now a days, i can run all explore and put money down that, as long as I'm not suicide on, i can get t30.

Anyone that is willing and able, can get t10, as long as there isn't 10 of those in LaF.

the t100 v t10 thing is a matter of 1000 countries vs 10,000. Maybe it's more realistic to look at it in terms of percentile of the server - t10 equaling top 1 percentile, of course.

btw, it's really fluffty to throw around accusations without some sort of substantiation, or at least an idea of what the situation is/was. It takes away from the conversation, and the credibility of the person doing so.....I like ya Pain, but that's just lame.

it isn't easy, but its been done many times now.

i think most t10-ers these days do it without FA

the difficulty level is probably similar to getting a t50 in the past

Really? So what if 20-30 people do that each set? Do they all get T10? IMO, outside of some well publicized NA shenanigans early on, I have not seen a lot of evidence of rampant NW cheating in EE so far. It's still too small of a fish tank.

I've gotten it once without aid, took a lot of effort on my part. I was aided into the top 10 one set but LaF CD'd me back to my proper spot which was like 13th or so.

Back in the 90's I could get top 25 without aid, top 10 with aid. I played in a mid level alliance.

Top 10 should be pretty easy without aid now if you are in the right alliance.

There just aren't the volume of heavy hitters in the game now.

Brink, it's true, the right alliance would pretty much pact out almost everyone, and avoid wars,

but

the 'right' in alliance server to be in, also does some very shady aiding and stock transfering, along with VERY curious farm targets that never retals them. (but do retal and topfeed other alliances)

There just isn't that many 'great' players now that is willing to put in any effort into land grabbing, because it involves staying up all night, camp, prep'ed, and then countries from the 'right' alliance would hit it 30 seconds before even 2DR happens, and ruins the DR.

Could be, Evo intra farm their own active players while the have stock on hand to stock transfer and claim its not fa??

It may well be something else, just putting out a suggestion.

I've basically quit the game now that my country was killed because restarts got FA packages from two alliances that wasn't involved in the war, and I guess I shouldn't name names, only one paid back anything and the other denies proof of anything anyways.

He mentioned you because you've made the same idiotic and unproven statements in the past. You only left out the tag name this time. Anyway, if you really believe that I expect LaF to start paying reps for all of the suiciders #64 has farmed. How is he always online at the right time? He is clearly guilty by Forgotten Logic (TM).

just because someone is on at the right time, doesn't mean they are associated. I know for a fact that #64 only got a shot at one of them was because me and another member called him out of a DOTA game, we knew he had turns on hand.

if that's your logic, then obviously EVO runs all these untags that don't bother hitting EVO at all when EVO farms them.

EVO farms country, country suicides on EVO, LaF farms sucider 15 minutes after, country must be LaF multi.

EVO farms country, country top feeds other alliances while EVO farms him within seconds, country must not be EVO multi.

I'm no longer a LaF member, nor am I a troll.

I quit the game because of of what has been going on, doesn't matter if i work my ass off, I won't get a t10 because there's 6 guys in LaF that'll finish ahead of me, and ~4 EVO guys that will get FA'ed or stock transfered, as well as shady land grabbing.

Why play anymore

Some of you LaF guys are definitely persistent with your lies. Kudos to that. Especially considering the holier than thou attitude when you have FA'd players into the top 10 two of the last three or four sets while having a discussion on AT about how you haven't done that for years, then get caught doing it only to admit that you do FA players into the top 10 because they deserved it more than those other guys they push out who didn't get FA'd.

Classy as always.

(note that some LaF guys are actually stand up, much <3 to those)

Top 10 without FA? Yes, it happens every set.
When countries are FA'd into the T10, it's generally looked down upon by the entire server.

This nonsense about EVO FAing its members to the top 10 is pretty humorous to me.

Each set, EVO recognizes its members who meet the following strict criteria:

1. Achieve over 150m networth
2. They were not FA'd
3. They did not farm dropped members
4. There was no inter/intra-tag land trading.

When a member meets these requirements, they are given a new title "Doctor". If he/she already has this title, they still receive recognition and it is recorded in our networth history logs.

With Evo's University system and dedicated trainers, more and more members are achieving this recognition each set. There has been talks of increasing the bar or creating a new title "Professor" for the most skilled individuals (+200m).

One of the reasons you may be seeing so many Evo in the top 10 this set is due to Evo's main competitor "LaF" being in a war. (I have to give LaF credit) :)

The reason why there are more Evo in the top 10 this set is that Evo finally learned how to play techer.
