My alliance is now down to #3. Why are we down to #3? Because those up-and-coming alliances have worked hard enough as a team to overtake us. Do people cry and quit all the time? Sure they do. Because they're all people like phalanx who instead of learning the game and getting better, choose to just throw tantrums and quit because they're getting smoked on a daily basis due to now understanding the game.
Like any competitive activity in life, how do you get better at them? Well, one of the biggest things is getting your ass kicked by those better than you, and learning from it.
