This is what I found after logging on after an EXTREMELY busy day. All day I wanted to play AH, but this is not fun at all.
Screenshots pretty much tell the story. These were taken about 1 minute after our radar finally came back up.

You know why? Only a handful of Knights are actually interested in field capture. I was at 12 after a large group of fighters arrived. Everthing was down...but ALL
the ack and FH were up. All they wanted to do was furball. I killed the FH with a Ju and everyone started whining. If the Knights would get thier tulips in gear and actually start BRINGING goons when someone calls we might have fun.

I play on the knights side and I'm guilty of that only because I don't know how to do anything apart from CAP yet.
Love your sig BTW Texace. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Wow, according to what you Knights said in January, you didn't complain about this stuff (not you RearGunner, you're new).
You guys were just laying it on the Rooks who were whinning after we'd been down for most of the last two months, now Knights are down for a short time and "Waaaa, waaaa...waaaaa!" starts up.
It isn't fun to fight against overwhelming numbers who won't finish it. It is too bad that there is not a solution to this problem.

Drill, about 7pm PDT we took A12,A6,A15,A7,A37 and God knows what else, I had to log after 1.5 hours.
Karnak, all we said back then was "its your turn in the bucket".
Now its ours. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
<S> Valant Knights!

I think several others have mentioned it in other threads Karnak....
When one team is down and about to get reset, the team with the second most number of bases usually starts attacking the strongest team or at least trying to protect the weakest teams bases from being taken by the strongest team in order to keep the strongest team from getting the reset. Is that confusing enough for ya? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
This usually leads to the weakest team getting the impression that the strongest teams are dragging out the torture.

Bloom my former squaddie I feel your pain. The bucket rotates through here it does seem knits are in it the most though. Im no statitician but I wonder does the pattern follow the larger squad rotations?

Tonight was much better. The assassins switched to knights and evened up the numbers nicely. (<S> guys! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) ) The bishops and rooks still had their little non-agression pact going on, but the knights were holding their own pretty well.
