Re: TGA Makes it to Alpha TOP 10!

Yeah...don't get cocky now. We've put ourselves in a prime position for head hunters actually.

1 Mesopotamia(mcs) 394,411 8,765
2 From the Shadow(FTS) 295,424 5,371
3 The Empire(THE) 229,685 5,220
4 Farkarians(Fark) 198,797 6,024
5 Warrior Nation(WNx1) 182,806 4,062
6 Fury of Olympus(FURY) 161,836 8,518
7 Delian League(Delo) 159,438 3,889
8 AirhawkAlliance(AHI) 142,445 4,317
9 OT Cheerocracy(OTC) 141,685 5,667
10 TacticalGamer(TGA) 126,490 2,387
11 Sodalitas(xSx) 125,073 4,035
12 Bootleggers(Boot) 121,632 7,155
13 ACME Trading Co(ACME) 115,947 4,638
14 Omega Alliance(-OA-) 111,187 3,369
15 Axs(AXS) 103,311 3,562
16 Res Publica(-RP-) 100,779 3,251
17 Under Shadow(UNS) 99,661 2,847

Compare our points per player average to everyone else around us. Rank 17 is the closest in terms of personal strength and that's 7 ranks below us. Right now we've got a large quantity of players in lieu of great quality. Now we've just got to improve ourselves and up our PPP score so that we can climb the ranks with more confidence.

Congrats TGA! But we're not on easy street just yet.

TG players are great quality; we stick together, help each other, and we wont split up if we get picked on. We may have our Points Per Player (PPP) spread thinner than other guilds in our class, but that's just because we exploded on to the scene later than them; not because we're of lesser quality as a team. In a weeks time we'll have brought that lower average up. All that number means is expansion Of course, I agree with you that it means we need to watch who's toes we step on.

Re: TGA Makes it to Alpha TOP 10!

Hmm interesting indeed. We may have a target on our backs but at the same time less savy players may simply see that were a top ten alliance and back off.

Rincewind and I are very closely situated and once I secure my third colony, the linch pin in my master plan, we will quickly dominate the 8x:2-6 area code. Or not as there are several Fark players around me who are bigger, but they are very friendly.

Yeah, I was planing on shutting down my sulfur plant until I realized how close you and Von Ruff (FARK) were. I guess I'll stay on and continue to harass the waters around my island.

Welcome to the big leagues. Beer's in the fridge.

Don't worry, we (Fark) won't turn on you until you break the 2,500 average player mark.
