Let's play a game next set, shall we? I will give you whatever time you feel is necessary to build up your country to what you consider 'good enough', and then I will break the fluff out of you. You morons keep talking about 'if you can't defend your land, then it isn't yours'. If you really think so, then take up the challenge and see how easy it is for me to break you.
So, which one of you jerkoffs wants to play ball?
PS: Yes, many people run with way too little defense. Doesn't mean your argument is correct either.
Well that is a mute challenge. The point is not that you have enough defense that one cant do a LG (well ok to some it might be), but the real point is that you have enough defense to make doing a LG unattractive ... or in other words not efficient and worth the cost. An experienced and great player will know when its too costly to even bother doing a LG. If you have that amount of required defense you will discourage those players, sadly you wont discourage the ones like me who are not as experienced and good enough to know when not too.

Seriously is that what we are talking about. That is only 80 Turrets per Acre. That is not nearly enough. Start with at least 200 / acres minimum and really should be higher than that. If I ran that low defense, which I will admit I have, but I would expect to get hit.
Look I know, and you know that those statements about getting more def are BS, but throwing down such a challenge is just more BS to what, match their BS with.
Dude, we're talking about people who are playing just to ruin other people's sets. If I want to suicide on, say, MD, then I sure as hell will put myself in the position of being able to break their entire alliance. If doesn't matter how much def they have, it would never be enough to stop me from getting my jollies off at their expense. THAT is what I'm talking about. People that say they obviously couldn't defend their land are making a stupid statement that ignores everything about this server.
You know how I defend my land? My tag kills you. THAT'S how I defend my land. Due to the way the formulas work, I can NEVER get my land back if someone decides to suicide by farming me, even if nobody else hits that suicider. That's a fact of the server. So my choices are what? Have less land? Silly for obvious reasons? Have more def? Obviously a good choice...up till a certain point. My goal is to win the set, and you don't do that by running abnormally high defenses on the offchance that some bored individual decides I'm the guy whose set is going to be ruined....
So where does that leave us? The winner is determined by ability, but also luck. Did I pick the right tag? Do I have enough defense to stop a determined suicider? Does my competition get suicided, allowing me to edge them out and take the win? Pretty fluffty way to play, imo.
Heston, get off my nuts. My next challenge to AT will be to ask everyone to find ONE post of yours where you're not insulting or attacking other people. I'd be fluffing shocked if someone actually managed to find you being civil on these boards.
PS: About modship, ask martian and qz. We need people badly and there's nothing stopping you from at least asking. It's not a trophy, and as far as I'm concerned, you can have 'my modship'. I doubt you'd be happy with it, though.
