So, I just had to stir up some fluff.

Explain: If clan a is hit by clan b 3 times in 24 hours from the same string of countries what would your alliance do?

Not that I'm in an alliance lol but in AoDT we would do.

1:1
1:2
1:3

so 6 retals.

1:1 escalating:escalating

3 countries from the same string in alliance a each make a grab on a country in alliance b. Doesn't have to be the same defending country, just the same alliance.

1:1 (1 country hit, no additive) = 1 retal
2:3+2 (2 countries hitting) = 5 retals
3:6+3 (3 countries hitting) = 9 retals

I am a troll. Everything I say must be assumed to be said solely to provoke an exaggerated reaction to the current topic. I fully intend to bring absolutely no substance to any discussion, ongoing or otherwise. Conversing with me is pointless.

I would say if you can prove they are the same string 6 retals would be in order.

1 on the first
2 on the second
3 on the third

but idk some people flip flop on this.

aka when it benefits them.

I personally don't grab so I have no ground to stand on, how ever I would encourage members to find a different target (even though they are scarce right now)

1:1
1:1
1:1
Assuming they all hit different countries, and total hits made by clan is not more then 5.

If they were on same country, or by same country hitting same alliance, then.
1:1
2:3
3:5

So if same country hit 2 clan members within 24 hours, he gets a total of 3 retals on him.

I'm interested in seeing this response. What if its not the same string or you can't prove its the same string? Same rules?

Then Fiat it all goes to semantics and who ever chooses to be decieving.

But yeah I agree with Kill4Free i thought they were hitting the same country.

It depends. If you're a netting tag, you probably just retal each hit 1:1 and contact the other clan's FA for additional retals/reps if it's the same guy.

If you're a war clan, you FS without explanation.

land:land, then kill, then AB a few of their clanmates just to make sure they got the message :-)

I'd probably graffiti something about Hellrush's mom on their clan site too

i dont want to see any complaining by people who do not agree with self farming when someone with 16 countries hits more then 1 country in thier tag with more then 1 of his countries.

most people run 16 countries. if you expect people to grab but not grab the same alliance more then once in 24 hours with more then 1 of thier string then thats just rediculous.

Yeah, but the problem is that if you allow one guy to grab your clan 3 times a day, people notice. Further, if you do nothing to discourage the practice, you find yourselves with too many retals to do.

"too many retals to do"

So a 100-200 country clan, can't keep up with say at most, 5-10 retals a day?

(NBK limits its members to 5 attacks on a clan per day).

Good point. It depends on how many members you have and how they're set up.

My point was that no clan can afford to be perceived as a landfarm, K4F and if NBK's 5 attacks per day are against a 32 country clan, that's way different than 5 attacks against a 320 country clan.

But yes. a 100 country clan should easily be able to handle 10 retals a day. In fact, 10 retals a day would be very nice provided that they aren't topfeeds (real or disguised) being retalled.

5 attacks on the same clan is kind of aggressive, someone hits me 5 times on the same country i'm farming the hell out of them

lucky for most clans they have several pacts to prevent this.

NBK does go out of its way to limit its attacks on smaller clans, our intention is not to swamp people with so many retals they cannot do anything.

And even when NBK was grabbing hard last set/the set before, over a week I think it averaged out to 3 attacks a day, 1 day getting 5 hits, one getting 6. The 6th was 2:1 retalled.

It's all relative. If the clan getting hit is huge, it makes a difference, between 3 hits on a 300 country tag really isn't overkill, but 3 hits on a 48 country tag is a bit harsh.

At the same time, even if it's 3 on a 300 country tag, if that happens day after day after day, I might get kinda irritated seeing that in my clan's news.

For the most part though, this game's always been about the big clans walking the line of "What can I enforce?" vs. "What will cause us to get suicided constantly until we change it?"

So I guess if you're willing to fight for your policy, do what you want and see how things fall into place.

3 different hits by 3 different countries on 3 different countries

= No fluffen issue!

Bring it up to 4 or 5 and then you have a debate.

(edit) 1 tag against 1 tag of course

5 hits is met with death for us. Haven't had to enforce it against us really, but one member hit Dynasty 5 times a couple sets ago, so we OK'ed the kill run against him.

So what if a 100 country alliance uses every country to hit a different country in another 100+ country alliance?

You retal 1:1?

I don't really have an opinion on this issue, by the way.

NBK has a 5 hit limit on a clan, no matter which member(s) are involved.
after 5 hits, its escalating
