Has anyone ever hit 30k acres in Express? I looked back over the last few sets and 26.5k was the highest I saw. Why is everyone so concerned with NW when we all know that "The land is the only thing in the world worth working for, worth fighting for, worth dying for, because it's the only thing that lasts"....."

Well because anyone can make a Commie Jetter and senselessly farm every player on the server until they're either killed or turned into a parking lot, but few people can find the balanc e point between Big Land and Big Trouble to win a reset here.

With the number of players on the server, it's not real likely someone can grab their way to 30K acres without making enough enemies to be whacked.

Land is an important aspect of this or any other server, but not necessarily THE primary factor.

29,900 was the recent record but taht country did get killed

there was one surviving 30k A country which was clan manufactured called LaEstar or something like that

but no individual has hit 30K and lived

came in 8th or 10th about 4 months ago

Half Man Half Amazing (#24) 24,078
Thirty-second round: Jul 06, 2010 - Jul 12, 2010
Largest on record - killed prior to end of set

wicked (#61) 22,029
Thirty-second round: Jul 06, 2010 - Jul 12, 2010
Largest of set that survived to finish


Hostile (#67) 32,154
Twenty-third round: May 04, 2010 - May 10, 2010
Largest in Express Server history


A quick check of posts for top players in those sets will show that none of those countries were run by folks who are currently playing for LaE, or who has played in LaE in the past.

As usual, gregg is talking out his ass.

it is time once again for that sad refrain

GREGG WAS RIGHT

if you follow the forums much at all you know the enevitable outcome of these debates; those that they call gregg are proven right or 2% of the time they admit they were wrong

you can look it up for yourselves
go to express
top players
prev reset

top clan country land wise belongs to LaEx
February 9 reset country name LaEdies LaEdies LaEdies

top not definitely a clan country that survived that i remember
may 4 #67

and those of you who remember the first set after the intro of the new I remember the 29,900A country that LaEx killed

OMG! NOOOOOOO!!!! Here I was so hoping he wasn't talking out his ass with paranoid conspiracy theories again....

Nice DH - came up one set short of looking back to find that one. Credit where credit is due, etc.

You all didn't find that one because DH completely made it up. I'm pretty sure 32,154 is the record.

Well I won't set the land record, but I did play a part in what is most likely the largest grab in Express history. It was only a matter of time. I'm convinced the land record is 10% skill and 90% luck. You have to relentlessly farm as many people as possible, and eventually you'll make enough people angry that something is bound to happen.

I would tell you who is #10, but then he probably wouldn't really like it.
