Joltgirl = Swords

Enshula = MIA

Right?

Actually, missile retals are pretty cool unless it's a nuke. I'd gladly accept a chem or cruise missile retal 1:1 for a grab.

That's the bush. Shavin' the bush.


Do you kids know ANYTHING?

Damn strippers drank it. Which explains why they didn't show up either.

Thanks for the contact.

Dunno if you're still on MSN but a I added you and sent an add request.

Twain. MUST you tell them EVERYTHING?

Tell you what, JAT. I'll bring the beer and you guys provide the porn. Might even be able to dredge up a stripper, too. Nothing like live entertainment, you know.

As far as the contact issue goes, not a big deal, really. Just wanna keep it that way. :)

Aight. I'll check back in a bit.

Any FA types/Leaders online? Need to look at something with you.

I don't know about now, but back in the day when I was "playing" markets, I used to sit and watch them every day around the time my stuff was going to come on the market.

As far as I could tell, it was always FIFO at any particular price.

Baseball
College Football
NFL

Missed you by an hour

ugh

Well, if I understand all this correctly, it's not really a double standard when you're talking about one dude and his brother versus an entire clan that was apparently cheating.

I think if you're not too big of a fluff, and make some friends on the server, you can run a small tag and so long as you show that you'll properly retal a hit, you can earn respect in FFA and do pretty good.

If the game attracts more players, that'll prolly take care of itself. I suppose some of the untags might just be people who play and either don't know or don't care about alliances but they are what they've always been I'd guess.

Far as the small tags go, good luck with that. ;)

Hell. I dunno what I'm doin' yet. Not that I ever DID mind you.

That explains it. Never played much 1a.

Like 440. I've spent 200 building CS's

Since it's been a "while" since I last played, I'm trying to figure out where I should be in various departments at this point.

My non-Theo BPT is 55 and my Theos are at 80. This about right, or do people even pay attention to that kind of stuff nowadays?

Funny. I never saw him around the whole time I played which was like 1999 to 2003.

What server did he play on? Witness Protection?

This just means I don't get to....err..... have to spank you when you've been a Bad Boy.

Alrighty then.

You have a player over there that apparently doesn't like it when he gets retaled.

Off to get more free land. Pls leave a message at the beep.

Cool. Thanks TB

Drama factor, dude. ;)

I'm old school, man. FFA was always my favorite server way back to 1999 when I first played E2025.

Despite the inclination for FFA to be a "war server", or whatnot, it's still NW that wins the resets, so us tree huggers see things a little differently.

But you're right. Despite the fact there's FFAers playing Alliance and vice versa, the teo servers never have cared for one another or their playing styles.

The Alliance guys somehow think that running 15 countries and self-farming is substandard play while farming everyone that can't war you is L33t.

After doing a retal a little while ago, the thought occurred to me that I don't have any contacts to speak of in case of problems and such.

I don't see one here on this forum, but is there a contact list anywhere for clans in FFA?

LOL. I don't guess he was.

Are both LaE tags divisions of the same overall clan?

Actually, I AM playing this set. started 4 countries about a week ago.

I've hit fatties in the past. I'd probably do so in the future too. Just not often, and only under the right circumstances.

And I don't particularly disagree with anything you are saying either. My only point was that I'd never consider self-farmers to be "elite netters".

It's not "competing". Self farmers don't have to defend acres against retals.

You must not be considering the NW LOSS incurred in just grabbing targets let alone defending against retals, successful or unsuccessful.

Where's the competition in a 1 jet PS vs. a guy losing 150,000 jets on a PS against a live opponent?

Where's the competition in no retal versus the same guy LOSING 150,000 turrets defending the land he just took?

In my example, that one grab (not including food and oil) cost the grabber $180K of NW to do. WHat did it cost the self-farmer? 1 jets and 2 barrels of oil?

That's not a level playing field, malykii.

I would remind you that:

A) I came back

and

B) I'm on FFAt


wait....you're right.... i'm not very bright.

It doesn't take skill to self-farm. Period. And it doesn't hurt anybody. I don't even care if people do it. I don't and nobody who wants to be in ESD would be allowed to do it except for maybe what I post at the bottom of this.

But you can't sit there and tell me that a self-farmer is as good of a net gainer as a guy who spends an hour a day or better planning and searching grab targets and then defending the acres he/she takes.


But what about farming down retalers? I guess technically, it's self-farming, but one can make the argument that the retaler took back "clan land' and has the right to see it distributed as it see fit within the tag.

.

WV would be a nice fit, I think. We had a decades long rivalry with Penn State and Ohio State is in our back yard. so to speak. That, and pretty much every WVU fan would love to see the Mountaineers get an annual shot at Rich Rodriguez up there at Michigan.

However, I think that WVU would end up in an expanded ACC. Former Big East members Miami, BC and Virginia Tech went to the ACC so it seems logical for WVU to head that direction as well.

ND would be an obvious choice but as has been said, they're unlikely to commit their football program to a conference commitment when they have such a sweetheart deal as an Indy.

Speculation that Mizzou or Nebraska would leave the Big 12 is just crazy, IMO. Why would they do that?

There are "emerging" programs like Cincinnati that might be a logical fit into the Big 10, but the problem is that they haven't put together a long string of winning seasons and top 25 finishes to prove they can compete in a powerful conference.

Pitt was another program mentioned in the article I read a while back. Pitt HAS won National Championships and DOES have a tradition and IS geographically suitable to play in the Big 10.

Rutgers? NYC audience? Bah. IMO, the Big Ten is all about the Midwest. But college football anymore is all about the $$$$, so who knows?

What about FA chains? Wouldn't FA chains being used to pump the NW of one country be equivalent to self farming?

I know there's a NW range for 2 countries to be able to FA one another, but one can set up an FA "Pyramid". Is that quality net gaining, or something else?

I'd like to see a list of those who would like to see the ability to play more than 15 and those who think 15 is enough.

Allowing massive multis even for pay skews the game unfairly for the vast majority who are okay with 15.

Nonononoooooo...


It's supposed to be a Celebrity Death Match, not a Dead Celebrity Match

Died yesterday from stomach cancer. That sucked.

That's a LIE. Jim Morrison's dead.

Yeah, the dude knew his stuff. He helped me out tons when I got that EZClan site from DJTrance.

I think Rocker prolly had Admin access to half the clans in the game.

Ghost?

Hey Waldo. The easy thing to do is remember me as the Dragon that knew Rocker. From back when we were in MPE together.

And what a clan jumping ho he was. I always wonder whatever happened to him. I know he lived in Arkansas but I think he was gonna move to Michigan.

And Hobo dude. You remind me of B_C if you know who that was.

That makes me wonder. Hey Hobo dude. was there some schmuck between 2003 and 2010 that sullied my Legendary Name?

The fake dragon?


I guess if there was a Dragon prior to 1999, you're right. But then I wouldn't be fake, I'd just not be the original.

I just tried a Rep this go-round cause they're so easy a caveman could play one.

LMAO

*sigh*

Better go get some stupid pills. BRB

After being away for a while, I just started playing this game again. Some guys suggested I try out Express to get back in the swing of things.

Pretty cool idea. Makes you think outside the box a little.
