Nice time with Rooks
« Reply #15 on: May 17, 2004, 01:38:32 PM »
What the rooks got is what no other country has yet (knits are getting it.)

about a year, year and 1/2 ago the rooks were outnumbered 3-4 to 1 every day for about 6 months..  As a result of getting run thru that gauntlet we have more aces.. (I know youll flame this but its true)

The bish will never attain the same level due to their horde tactics and their complete reliance on the horde...(not to say they dont have aces, but lemming horde will dull even the sharpest skill set.)  Thats why when the bish outnumber the other 2 countries they fight to a stalemate as where you give the knits and especially the rooks that numerical advantage there is usually a reset depending on the map...

some may take offense to this; but truth always hurts the most...

Problem I see over time though is if knits keep getting beat down you may see some exodus to help them out and of course they are developng aces of their own..(baptism by fire)  In time I see them becoming stronger..  Much like the rooks got when we got fubared..

Very well put and accurate. The camp to camp country statistics bear you out as well. Knight stats are constantly improving even while being consistantly outnumbered. Rook stats are also improving but by a smaller margin, Rook country stats are very high relative to the other two, so as a country there may be little room left for much improvement. Bishop statistics on the other hand are growing from bad to worse every camp as your observations would predict.

Hmmmmm ... wonder why that is ? ...  :confused:


That IS strange isn't it?? It always seemed as though whenever we looked up at an NME con it was a Rook at 10K+. Now that we are Rooks when we look up its Knights and Bishops!! Thing is, as the 13TAS, we don't normally fly much over 6K unless forced to so maybe THATS the issue!!
