Here is my analysis and an honest answer.
This answer is not some kind of official SAS answer, just what I think.
If SAS were to go for Top1, it would be a 60+ mil ip war.
Top2 has traditionally been around 30 mil ip.
I think that the stats gain for top1 prize, has not been worth it to SAS to have to go up another 30+ mil. That's a lot of gold = a lot of real money.
That's my guess. I think it is because the stats gain per gold used is not worth the gold use from Top2 to Top1.
I'm not sure if you were leader of a synd, you would ask your members to put up that kind of money for the small incremental gain in stats.
I personally think that it has been wise of SAS to not go for Top1, considering it would be asking it's members for a lot more gold for a relatively smaller amount of stats gain, when compared to Top2.
I hope this has answered your question.
That's pretty close to how things were in my SAS days. FC had the biggest spenders then (and probably still does now, for the most part), and could easily match any increase in SAS spending, so like you say it'd be asking members to burn cash for no purpose, except pushing FC into doing the same.

Straight lmao at the fact you take "Top 400" literally.
I'll say it a third time: Fight Club is a top 400 syn, because they are WITHIN the top 400 spots.
I intentionally kept my rank ambiguous BECAUSE THATS NOT THE POINT. So while I got a Top 400 prize this war, I also got a Top 250 prize, A Top 150 prize, how does this not make sense still?
The fact of the matter is if I'm getting a Top 50 prize I STILL landed in the top 400 does that make sense?
Because you seem too daft to understand let me put it this way: There are 400 syndicates receiving a Top 400 prize.
So yeah I am a "free player" yet I made damn sure my vault got me the influence blade during the raid boss.
Which by the way, even if I was a free player would my statement have any less substance? According to you, YES. You pig.
Yup I just weaseled that out of you too. The cold harded fact is I know players who have spent thousands less than you or me yet they still know more about this game than both of us combined. Because here on Crime City Forums, money equates to skill. Fortunately, I have both.

The fact your only attack on my credibility is that "You're a top 400 free player"
Makes you the biggest joke on this forum.
REGARDLESS the fact that it's untrue. The very PREMISE of you even saying that makes you below me and I spit on you.

Lmao at this rubbish. Saying FC is a top 400 team is trying to put them on some equivalence with whoever came in 400th when everybody knows there is no comparison. Yes, FC got the "top 400" prize, but did the 400th team get the 1st place prize? No. Weasel words, QED.
If you play in a top 50 syndicate why be embarrassed to say so?

Are you selectively reading PARTS of my post?
There is no "putting equivalence" here. THe fact that you even bring that up alarms me. I'm arguing that its IRRELEVANT my rank yet you still try to mosy it out of me.
You find this "embarrassment" to not mention my Top 50 syn? Are you kidding me? has this game really taken away ALL of your common sense facilities?
I literally don't know how to say this any other way because I've reworded this four times in this thread already: I'm speaking independently of rank. I could have used "Top 250" as an ambiguous rank Or Top 150, Or Top 500 for that matter. THE PRINCIPLE IS THE SAME. I'd like to know why SAS is all over the forums talking trash yet they still lose. Thats the point, you are intentionally trying to ignore.

I could care less what your rank is. All I'm saying is stating FC is a top 400 team is garbage. Why not top 1000, or top 4000?
The rank of any team is judged by the best prize they got that the ones below did not receive; certainly not by however many there are in the competition as a whole.
In this war I finished top 1500. By your argument FC is also top 1500 so there's no difference between us. Absurd! I'd be laughed off the forum if I claimed that.
