SAS scored 50 million IP their last battle.

It's why they call them the "assassins"

I thought it was because it was the only word in the english language that had the word "ass" in it twice...

Yeah, it's not like my involvement on the SAS roster this battle had anything to do with helping to push them over the hump to beat TAW. Sometimes, one person can make all the difference in changing the culture of a team. I think if we've learned one thing this battle is that a winning personality can be contagious to the downtrodden.

I think, and I may be incorrect, if you tap on the syndicate name in the leaderboard it will show you the people in the syndicate and how many influence points they have. So, anyone could check how many people sas had and see who the big spenders were. Or, you could be correct about them being a member or groupie.

I would like to see this lead to the implosion of TAW. It's time they go the way of Fight Club.

Making Fight Club rage quit, and AppleMacGuy cry, was hilarious and awesome at the same time. Then they all tried to retire, but I trolled them into playing again. As good as the lulz were I think they have learned how embarrassing that was and frankly many of their egos wouldn't be able to take it.

There are some good people in TAW; people who fought like mad and went down swinging. One of the best things about this war is that while 60/60 members on TAW liked to claim to be champions, you only had to look at the final individual scoring to see which ones were really going to fight to the end, and which ones have basically been mooching off the big scorers for months if not years. Several of whom have been with Fight Club since day one and are potentially TAW board members. I won't violate the forum policy by naming or shaming anyone, but I can tell you that while tam, shango, and mayor were PAing like mad in the final hours one of their members was busy slow tapping me and other SAS members. Why he wasn't scoring I do not know.

I don't think most TAW members can stomach going out on a loss. Many claimed to only stick around to keep SAS from getting first, and now that they have failed, I assume they will come back big, take first, and then some will retire and some who enjoy playing the game will keep playing. I also think most who retire will insist that SAS defeating them had nothing to do with it, they are frustrated with Gree, did everything they needed to, proved to all of CC what big impressive people they were, etc. The usual BS.

Anyway if I didn't say it before I do salute TAW on a hard fought battle and have already reached out to the individuals who I thought really stood out and impressed me with their heart and dedication. I used to speculate who were the alphas and who were the betas. Now we all know.

With the famous reputation of Hackers and Cheats in SAS I wouldn't be surprised if they snuck something in the virtual world to take them over the top. LOL, either way its "Crime City" and if they committed a crime to get to finally make 1st so be it and who really cares besides them and TAW anyway. I know the bean counters at Gree are very happy.

Since the inception of the War event I'm sure you guys have tried every trick in the book to take first and it appears it finally came down to out tapping and out spending. We probably won't see this again unless TAW retires or there is another 40% off Gold sale and you guys out spend and out tap TAW again. LOL.

We have another strategy for first that I am sure would be quite successful, and have been saving it for months. That said, every strategy entails different methods of outspending and out tapping. SAS has the brains and TAW has the gold, and ultimately enough gold will trump anything.

Regarding your allegations about "the famous reputation of Hackers and Cheats in SAS", I should remind you that while several teams have been shown to use hackers in battle, SAS is not one of them. The most notable case was TAW using a hacker to win first a few battles ago. Gree did the unprecedented move of awarding SAS first place prizes in response, although they let TAW keep the hacker's IP, first place prizes, and keep the TAW name on the past winner's list.

It's unfortunate that a syndicate like SAS, who has shown much higher standards than TAW when it comes to all sorts of ethical issues over time, gets slandered by you after their finest accomplishment. SAS won fair and square in a very hard fought battle by both teams. They did what many have mocked and considered impossible: They put all the FC originals and TAW members who had never lost a war into second place. No one else has ever done that, and only SAS could do it.

I will say that there are ethical TAW members and I think many were oblivious to what was going on that battle, and disgusted by it once they knew the truth. That said, TAW leaders were warned about the hacker and chose to take him into their fold anyway. That's on them.

Given their history, that syndicate and all of its affiliates shouldn't be proud about anything. At this point, everything they do in their war against TAW is a result of being dumb, stubborn, and addicted to a silly mobile app.

We all thank them for supporting the game so that we don't have to, but that doesn't mean they aren't a laughing stock. It takes a real clown to spend thousands of dollars on a free mobile game.

Us changing our name for 3 hours as a joke has nothing to do with us being proud scoring 130 mil + ip in 3 hours and taking first. Or us scoring close to 1 mil ip per minute during our TAW battle.
It was pretty funny, as a few hours later AA faced TAW we heard lol

That is an entirely different discussion. We can debate if this game is worth spending money on, if it is worth spending time on, and how much money or time is reasonable. If we all agree that we are here to play this game, if we agree that a few hundred people would like to come in first in a battle, and they have chosen to spend a lot of time and money on the game, I think it is fair to respect the accomplishment for what it is: SAS was able to defeat the people who never lost a war. People used to mock SAS for being the only syndicate to consistently drive to defeat TAW. Any player on SAS would have been welcome on TAW; but these players didn't want to take the easy road. Since the start of syndicates any clown with gold could have joined FC or TAW and called themselves a champion. SAS is the only syndicate to earn first and actually win the game. No one thought it was possible, I have heard every "Stuck At Second" joke you can think of, and they never lost focus. They crushed it, on their terms, and within the context of the game it is quite an impressive accomplishment.

I suppose from a certain point of view, you're right; the individuals in SAS have achieved no prize, status or honor outside of the game and its player base. However, is the game really their focus?

Let's say you spend $5 to go see a movie at a theater. When you walk out, you walk out with nothing; in fact, it cost you gas to get there and at least two hours of time in getting ready, driving and watching the movie. The reason you chose to pay to walk out with nothing is because you were paying for entertainment.

If someone has thousands in disposable cash every month and this game brings them so much enjoyment, who are you to criticize how they enjoy their recreation? They're obviously more successful IRL than you and me combined in at least one area of life!

How is me spending money that I have earned on a game of my choosing any of your business? If I can afford and wish to do so why should you be the judge of me? You in your statement act As if SAS is the only syn that spends thousands of dollars. It's not just the top 2 that do this.

Your level of spending bothers you and a few others enough or you wouldn't be posting here in response to those laughing about it. If it didn't bother you, you wouldn't care what anyone else thinks. Certainly not enough to try to argue about it.

The joke is on you anyways. It doesn't matter if you spend a million a week and it doesn't matter what some virtual scoreboard says. You always lose, Gree always wins. That is an irrefutable fact.

In defense of Monte which I will soon regret, it is their choice and you should respect that. The obviously have the smarts to be earning that much in the first place which completely undermines your point that Monte and players that spend as much as Monte are "not smart". It isn't easy to be stupid and be rich unless you win the lottery or literally Rob a bank or get away with it or do something else that is illegal.

I appreciate the support and can tell you that the people I know who are wealthy/successful typically work quite hard. Some are quite intelligent, some aren't, but all tend to have a gift or honed set of skills that lets them turn time into money. Ironically the very best sales people I know don't have to work very hard at it. The bad ones work constantly.

Back to my original point, this thread is about SAS accomplishing what no other team has been able to do: Put the undefeated, perennial FC/TAW winners into second place. Most who play the game and have an understanding of who TAW and SAS are at least took note of it, and the vast majority seemed to have an opinion one way or the other. Most of the ones I have spoken too were pleased to see SAS win if for no reason than to see things changed up. I don't think anyone was expecting to see it on Sports Center or CNN, or for any random bar or cafe patron to be particularly impressed.

If you want to question the value of spending so much money on a phone game, that's a different debate with all kinds of arguments. Is it moral or ethical with all the suffering in the world? Is it any worse than people who spend far more money in casinos or on champagne that they pour in the gutter to impress people? Is it kind of the big spenders to support a game so people can play for free? Is anyone who pays for cable each month going to hell because they don't put the money towards charity?

Different discussion.

1- SAS will get cocky and TAW will beat them in a landslide

2- TAW will disappear from the leaderboard for most of the battle, save up all of their gold, and make the biggest comeback in cc history on the last day

3- Both teams have a run for their money and the victor doesn't win by much

The second one would be cool to watch

It was only most of the same FC members, and syndicate name changes not being an option at that time, they had to join the real Lights Out to have that name appear on the list of winners. So they used the name with full permission, and the founders of LOC did indeed win a great deal out of that arrangement.

I know exactly where I am speaking from, quite foot free actually. And I have discussed the topic with Goody and Zubby and I don't know who else. Whatever LOC won, it certainly wasn't any sort of respect from anyone I know in game. Any top five syndicate, especially back then, could have booted their 15 lowest scorers, added FC/TAWs 15 top scorers, and pretended to win first. If SAS did it, and the players stayed, I don't think SAS would lose a battle or war until the game dies. But the accomplishment would have meant nothing, because there was no accomplishment. No more impressive than some average player joining TAW, scoring low, "winning first", and then claiming to be a champion. To this day I am embarrassed for LOC although if they got whatever they wanted out of it, good for them.

At the end most of LOCs scorers bailed on Goody and LOC and stayed with TAW/FC. Even the players on TAW who changed their names to things like "FC/TAW wins 37, SAS 1 LMAO" don't mention LOC. When the poor sports on TAW who never lost anything until SAS defeated them cant be bothered to mention LOC, you know how little it meant.

Some people may consider what LOC did an amazing championship feat, probably the same people who feel that way about someone ponsing TAW for a battle. That team did beat SAS, but essentially the same crew did it 37 times. Latching onto them and winning isn't "winning". Putting them in second for the first time ever? SAS won the game.

SAS, under Vlad's leadership, has done what no other syndicate has ever been able to do. This may actually be a first for all Gree games. Has SUP ever lost in MW? What about the top team in KA? SAS absolutely won the game. As dumb as this game is, as big a waste of time as it is, I used to have an unhealthy obsession with seeing TAW fail, and seeing SAS win. That embarrassing weight was lifted after last battle.

Going back to being second? I don't care. I don't think they do either. I assume that TAW will get their act together and spend whatever it takes to win first. At some point, SAS will go for it again, and at some point they will win it again. That's part of the fun of being in SAS. I don't need nor want to see SAS become TAW2.0.

I don't know why you have an axe to grind, but we have sas2,3,4 and i flat out beg players to go to one of these teams when they need or want to reduce the time/money spent on the game. I move between the SAS teams as I want and I hope every player on sas1-4 feels the same freedom. SAS1 has let many players miss min for many wars, for all sorts of reasons. Eventually, yes, if a player can't make minimum for long enougg they need to move down. You can't win first or hold second with a ton of free players.

I do agree that TAW doesn't pretend to care when they kick a player to the curb. Thats all i agree with.

The top team in KA, Forum United Nation (which I think had a few Fight Club members) did lose to the second placed Royal Knights who held on to top slot until the time I stopped playing the game. That was pretty epic and certainly raised a cheer amongst the neutrals. :)

Ma Bell's offspring agitate to shake off some regulatory rules
The Baby Bells'' are pushing back federal restrictions governing competition in the telecommunications industry. The Federal Communications Commission will vote tomorrow on whether to continue requiring Bell operating companies (BOCs) to maintain separate subsidiaries if they wish to offer computer link services. Down the road,chanel handbags (http://www.wkausa.com/chanel/chanel-handbags-knockoffs-wholesale.html), the FCC is also considering whether to allow new accounting rules designed to prevent the BOCs from subsidizing their computerized services. What is being voted on is the issue of whether the cost of the structural separation requirement outweighs the benefits in preventing potential anticompetitive behavior, '' says Susan O' Connell of the FCC. At present,canada goose outlet sale (http://www.discountcanadagoosejackets.com), Pacific Telesis, USWest, Southwestern Bell, Ameritech, Bellsouth, Bell Atlantic, and NYNEX are forced to operate separate subsidiaries if they wish to offer nonregulated enhanced'' services. Under new rules, however,veste moncler femme (http://www.maisondesvignesdeverzenay.com/neige/vestefemme.php), the FCC would make those distinctions. Can you manage your money? A personal finance quiz. All we're really saying is that all of the unregulated businesses should be operated as unregulated businesses, and we [shareholders] take the risk and we take the rewards, '' says Delbert C. Staley, chairman of NYNEX. Still, there is some question of just how effective new regulatory and accounting procedures will be at preventing subsidization. It's a cost accountant's nightmare, '' one federal official says. Finding subsidization gets to be like looking for a black cat in a dark room. There are so many costs fixed that it becomes a very subjective thing. ''Other experts say that while subsidization is not currently a huge problem, it is one reason the original court judgment forced a separation between regulated and unregulated phone service. At the federal regulatory level, there is a shift away from keeping the two separate for efficiency's sake, '' according to the official. Yet, the BOCs still must wait for approval from US District Judge Harold H. Greene, who could be influenced by any FCC move to allow such information services. '' The thrust against deregulation can also be seen clearly: In a key Justice Department investigation that is to be given President Reagan in January. It is looking at just where, and how, the regional Bells should be allowed to expand. The Bells are supplying Justice Department investigators with information, but are also reportedly lobbying the Justice Department on a daily basis. On Capitol Hill,woolrich canada (http://www.woolrichcanada.com), where two bills being pushed hard by some of the Bells are pending before the House Telecommunications, Consumer Protection, and Finance Committee. The Bell companies have established widespread support for their plan to have the modified final judgment changed, but there is some question as to how deep that support is, '' says Dekkers Davidson of the Commerce Department's National Telecommunications Information Administration. Officials in the executive branch and aides within the telecommunications subcommittee say that, while passage of legislation is not likely soon, it keeps pressure on federal agencies to move toward relaxing restrictions in four key areas: Marketing information services including voice mail, voice storage, voice forwarding. This is the category the Bells are likely to be allowed to enter soon. Making customer premise equipment including private branch exchange systems (PBXs), keysets, modems,discount oakley sunglasses (http://www.discountoakleysunglasses.us.com), and terminals. (This is a very competitive, low margin business where many businesses are having trouble making money. )For big business, the Bells could provide automatic routing along the least expensive long distance line. For small businesses that can't afford PBX, a regional phone company could build this least cost routing'' into its own system. Making central office equipment that is, large buildings with sophisticated switching computers. Marketing interexchange services that is, long distance services that would compete with AT MCI, and others. Underlying the strong political push to loosen regulations is the concern that technology now enables big business to bypass the Bell systems' wires that interconnect offices and homes. The Bells fear lucrative corporate business will leave their networks in droves. Insurance, airlines, and stockbrokers are all information intensive and have enormous amounts of phone use. They would like to get around the charge for access provided by local wires. An example frequently cited by the Bells as proof that bypass is eroding their system is Merrill Lynch's New York Teleport network established at the southern tip of Manhattan. It beams data off of antennas on Staten Island. We're finding evidence of bypass in some instances, '' says NTIA's Mr. Davidson. In theory you would expect a lot of bypass. But that isn't the case in reality. ''Still, you don't really wait until your horse is dead before you report back [to the government], '' says NYNEX chairman Staley.
