It's nice to know that you've been able to string together 300 + peeps and roll over maps on Sunday night. Hope you're enjoying the thrill of the horde.

Oh yeah, almost forgot... this isn't a whine.

Believe me, many of Rooks are damn frustrated about all the excessive "fat" on our bellies, too.

 The fight in the Knit territories were superbly dull, while the fight against the Bish who apparently decided to steal the reset, was diabolical.

 The only reason we reset Knits before Bish stole it, was there were squads who knew what to do operating in the Knit front, systematically pounding Knit fields to submission.

 ..

 But who cares.

 I lost a 262 to a reset, while defending a field from hordes of Bish, knocking down 6 Goons while surrounded by 25 Bish. Man, that hurt. Host connection lost, just when the wheels touched the runway and the 262 was rolling to a stop.. arrrgh!!

You guys gotta keep in mind that a good percentage of people in Rookland weren't really rooks.   One side will always get jumpers when a reset is close.

And for the pizza map, the only time it will ever be reset is when one country has big numbers like we did Sunday night.  All intelligent Rooks realized how the numbers helped us out.

It's actually quite sad that most people try to fight for the reset.


Enjoy fighting a challenging fight.  When one side is down, attack the other!

Nah, Maxie's just making clear there was nothing involving skill by the Rooks on Sunday, lest y'all start thinking you actually accomplished something.  He's not whining at you, he's laughing at you. :lol

There wasn't?  Well, dang, Skull, then I guess there weren't 275 Rooks up. Or the Sunday before that.  Or the Sunday before that.  Or the Sunday before that.  Or the Sunday... well, you get the picture.

As was the gloating and hi-fiving of the Rooks... at least those who could actually find something to shoot at for all the conga lines. ;)  Glad you enjoyed it, kbman.

But there's certainly some truth that such adversity has made the Knights stronger.  I enjoyed the heck out of pushing the Rooks back every night last week, despite their having numbers every night last week.  Last night too :p  +100 gets a bit tougher, tho.  No place to land the kills. :)

Odd that these same squads couldn't do the same when the Rooks only had 10 or 20 plane advantages during the week.  Unless by "squads who knew what to do" you meant squads that knew what to do with an overwhelming horde.:lol  Go gettum, Rooks!

Nah, I don't have any problem with that.  Lotta guys really like working to win the big picture, which is fine.  

Some idiot Knight actually went on Ch1 Sunday night, a bit before the reset, to whine that the Rooks were porking our bases, making it tough to come up.  Well Duuuh!!  

It's just that doing it with twice the number of players every Sunday for the past 6 months has gotten a bit tiresome for us, especially when it used to be our Squad Night.  Sunday Squad Night has become pretty pointless.
