got that out of your system?
good.
now listen up and listen good. people will farm other players in this game. they have since the dawn of this game and they will until jared loughner rises from the grave and brings the end times. running zero defense will get you farmed. it will. all the parking lots and forum posts in the world won't save your zero def country from becoming farmland. you know what would save it? some freakin defense. im a god-tier player and i farm zero def countries all the time. i dont give a fluff. if they had a problem with that, they should have bought some defense. world star
Do these people stumble across the game while looking at goat porn, and decide that they are going to teach someone how the game should be played or what?
"He doesn't have any defense so it is my job to teach him a lesson about that." Is that the thought process?
I always appreciate the God Almighty ones that think it is their duty, their obligation, to teach people that they should play a certain way, have x-number defense (while they themselves will lack tanks or troops; it will be one or the other), etc.
Plug this into your system and pay attention.....
When this set ends, make a note of some names in the top 10-12; many will play the same name next week. As the next set evolves, you may match their rank to a certain point in the set. You may even rank in the top 10 for awhile, but then you will begin to see a gap in networth as the guys that finished ahead of you the previous week set the stage to finish ahead of you again this week. Most will have kicked somebody's ass, or defended an attempted ass kicking, and still finish ahead of you. Why you may ask? Because they know what they are fluffing doing.
So, if you are playing not to win, keep it up. If you want to learn to play, pay attention to these people that you think are being careless. They have a land goal in mind and manage their expenses.
What you do not want to happen is to have your ass whipped in battle and in networth. Or at least one who plays with pride would not want that. But those who play with pride do everything they can to learn how to win.
And, no, I have not won a set, nor do I finish in the top 10 every week, but I also do not make foolish decisions and comments.
