Roflmao! That was you? Oh man, you cried sooo hard like the whiny little girl you are, I wish I had saved some of those pathetic wimpy messages you kept sending me. Yes I was sooooo scared to war you! Big boy Cath! I was shaking in my boots! Ohhh nooo!!! You nailed me so hard! All those words and you couldn’t even do a success retal like you promised. So disappointing. You’re the only clown here Hahaha.

Cathankins, dude, seriously, take a chill pill. You think that because Tmac is a good player he's not allowed to be LGd? That he has some protection the rest of us don't have because he is good? Of the 18 sets he has played here he has won 11 of them, so please, tell me where Tmac has been greifed every set, and fyi, a couple of LG's aint griefing, or your all bloody greifers. 99% of the players in Primary who've been here for years haven't won the server once, with more then half of those just getting farmed to death each set and still return to play set after set for god knows what reason. Tmac is not a victim here you worthless scrub, and I'm almost certain you don't speak for him. Where's your morality when low and mid tier players get farmed ruthlessly huh? Where's your morality when Tmac, or any of the top players (myself included) hit the same country a ton of times in a single set?
Lets look at your last set, you hit: Wolf 359 (#72) x 4, Acetryc (#75) x 3, Bort (#85) x 3, EE Oil Company (#60) x 4, Bretz (#54) x 4
So get out of here with your pathetic calls for morality and delusional notion of corruption or evil behaviour.

Just to clear the air here, I did not know the know the country I hit in Primary was Tmac at all, and there was no discussion with anyone else in regards to my actions there, and never is. I play Primary completely independently from Alliance and almost never know who the other laffers are who play there, or discuss any happenings in the game. I absolutely do not believe in or condone cross server griefing, you got a problem in alliance, you keep it in alliance.

Also, since I'm here, its a bit rich to call LaF the griefers when we would literally never war anyone if we were left alone to hug trees. You guys all seem to think Gerdler IS LaF, and use those 2 terms synonymously, but the problem is just Gerd yet it's talked about it like the problem is "LaF" when in reality, I'm sure you guys don't have any problems with most of the rest of the actual players in the clan, yet you hate this one player so much that you think it's okay to blindside and ruin the sets of a bunch of dudes who would be more then happy just to net because you can't stand one guy, that's bloody griefing.

The netting clans don't hold the server hostage, the war clans do, if they decide they don't want you to net, you're not netting, if the netting clans decide they don't want you to war, and net instead, there is no dynamic in this game that could possibly make that happen. I guess at the end of the day, to me that seems like the biggest problem, you have 2 groups of players who want vastly different things from this game. When we had 1000s people and dozens of clans, that was okay, now with just a few of us left, it doesn't really work.

It's also been stated before, this time included, when LaF is hit that the war clans are simply bored with arranged wars and want something spicy, then create the drama to go along with it, generally involving how much Gerd is disliked (which is kind of hilarious how much people are obsessed with him in this game). It seems like for the war clans vitriol and hatred has to be present for the war to be interesting, which is pretty unhealthy. So there's that too. At the end of it all, can't we all just play nice? Seriously, I even like to war, just give us a heads up every now and then and I'll happily have a war, they're heaps of fun, less so when you have a clan of countries build for netting and get blindsided and outnumbered by a bunch of countries built for war.

It’s the same with Commie, virtually every set. You’ll have Mil sit there for a ridiculously cheap price, unsold all day and have all Commies undercut each other, then the whole market sells out including stuff listed at $40 more then what was sitting there for 24 hours before hand….
We just need more players.

I agree, get rid of Team, it made more sense when clans had like 100+ members, most of the clans on alliance are practically Team size anyway, so just have them come here. Tournament and express can go also, they’re both lame. Primary is the best server so it stays and FFA is the only one with multiple countries so it stays also. So one Alliance server, one individual server and one Multi server.

Each strategy has a different need for tech. Casher, Farmer, Indy, Oiler in order from most tech needy, to least. So it stands to reason that a tech start casher would benefit more than a tech start CI. On primary tech start also slows down growth to make it less likely to become an early target and increasing the returns you will get when grabbing. For example if you start grabbing on day 10 you may get 300 acres from a target. On day 14 that same target may yield 500 acres. You also have access to a lower NW range of targets which over the course of the set may expand your overall attack pool. So if you don't tech start you may save 60 to 100 turns throughout the set, but you have to overcome those difficulties.

Clearly LB is very successful every set with an indy tech start. I don't think that has to do with the start. I think he is a very good player that grabs well. Any start can be made viable if you find the right targets and can balance defense and tech throughout the growth phase.


Yeah, for CI, neither tech start or no tech start is better then the other, it all comes down to pesonal preference. I've gotten decent enough finishes without it but personally prefer to do a tech start, so thats what I do. But arguably, no tech start may be better, I'm pretty sure Serp didn't do tech starts and he has by far the best commie finishes on this server, but if he did do one, I'm sure it would be just as good.

You just know this is one cool dude in real life.


Personally I don’t think there is any problem in this at all. I retal 100% of the people that hit me, whether that is straight away or later in the set, it’s coming, as discussed in length many times, there is no retal window in Primary.

Don’t jinx me! I think the accidental hit on you was enough. And that one time I accidentally forgot to switch to PS instead of SS…
I’ve only run out of bushels for one turn this set, and it was like a week ago so I don’t know if that is enough to count as a mess up.

clicked on the icon next to your country and took it from there. I dont even need to be logged in to do this. If you do not want to share you can do so in your settings. Gerdler has for example turned off so nobody can view his country info but his profile is open to view.
