Zambia - Zero Hour - 50 Wins(FLTQ10/10) and/or 12/12 Streak(Prestige 9/9)...

[Sigg]

There's nothing spectacular in what thc do, they match cupcakes all weekend by pulling down their own boosts and lowering their ally count.

Of course they will paint a different picture but facts of the matter is if they didn't face cupcakes all weekend they would get ripped apart...

Hi Artois, you're not quite right. THC finished top 150 and the good players and factions we edged out along the way would not agree with you that they were cupcakes.

[Maverick0073]

Wow, for once I agree with Artois , you do face cup cakes all weekend, the fact that you finish top 150, just suggests you have 1 or 2 big scoring matches towards the end, even so almost every faction from 100-4000 are gold free. You must feel real proud.

Lol... The fact that you think rank teams do anything more than spend gold is just sad. You've deluded yourselves. We pushed top 150 to simply prove a point. Given enough gold we can do what any rank team does... Unfortunately, we don't have that much gold... And doing what we did this war (pushing for rank) was painful as we don't like to spend that way. Its only the Mgurts, KYS and other rank teams who also streak that are doing anything admirable. Rank is simply a function of gold spent and NOTHING more. The 7th rank team only succeeded in spending less than 6 other teams and more than the rest.

Mr Artois is a sad, angry resentful man. He revels in the failure of others. And when others have success he vomits his jealousy all over these forums. Any true streakers understand what I'm saying. To pull off what we do takes a ridiculous amount of activity, communication and dedication. We use strategy and hard work to do what we do.

You guys are trying to minimize what we do. But it's hard work. We have a brilliant strategy we have used for many months now with great success. But what it doesn't allow for... Is simply outspending opponents to win. You guys seem to think there's no value in winning unless you spend for it. I challenge you to start looking at this game differently. Don't cry on the forums about gree gouging it's player base and then get upset with us for finding a way to succeed without spending. Start measuring your stats by the ratio of gold spent/stats gained. That's the true measure of success in this game... Where strategy is near dead and spending almost always wins out. You should be happy that there are other options here. That you CAN actually have success using strategy and hard work. If you don't like the idea of this... Please don't keep crying about how everything is so gold intensive.

FA also is a strategy based event which values hard work and sacrifice. We do exceptionally well in that also. We are able to rank VERY high without spending gold. See... When you take gold spending out of the picture we are as competitive as any other team. We ranked 14th, 12th and 3rd in the three FA events. Were we facing cupcakes? We are all old players who have high iph... Who never used gold as a crutch. Back in the old days ones stats were dependent onhaving good Econ. So we all built up then. Didn't bother buying golden army's. Now it pays off for us.

Not sure why I feel the need to defend myself. Our record stands on it's own. If you think it's so easy... You try it. Bet you wouldn't complete 12 wins in a row much less 190. I'll stop responding to the resentful whiners. I'm sure you have enough people in your IRL circles who you make miserable... No need to add to that tally.

[Maverick0073]

What McGurt and osw did is really something to be proud of , what you did is nothing compared to that, all you did was to manipulate you accounts by dropping allies etc to exploit a matchup algorithm badly written by gree. well done , look every one thinks you're awesome...wahahaha

Fully agree.. It's an amazing achievement to walk away with these rewards. We got to 12/12 streaks a few times nearer the start, but the amount of coordination and activity took it toll.. I commend anyone who csn still pull this off

G-Force 2, finished with 50 wins and 9/9 streak (55-2). Ranked 275.

I agree, great achievement. I streaked a few times and got the 50 wins and 12/12 streak prizes and it is tough. Too much time and coordination, it is more work than going for rank. I have much respect for teams that put time ahead of gold. Gold makes this game very, very easy.

[Veccster]

I assume the thread where THC was bragging was deleted?

And why should anyone care if they lowered boosts and allies to face easier teams? Thats using strategy. It's still a lot of work and communication to achieve something like that. Anyway, as I said in the now deleted thread....CONGRATS!

I think Cosmic gets a bad rap because he has fun with the forums. Nothing wrong with that. I agree with his comments on streaking. I have accts on two of the teams on the list and it is much harder work streaking and ranking all weekend then logging in and just tapping out gold. And, dropping allies and boosts means you face some cupcake teams but also many other streak teams. IMO, most admirable are indeed the top 10 teams. Nothing worst than spending Saturday afternoon paired against Sup 1&2 or OSW. The rest of us do what we can to enjoy our time and money commitment in the lower ranks...however we chose to do so.

Thanks for the nice words, and even the criticism. Love it or hate it, it's still a glorified video game played by adults. Might as well have a little fun with it to go with all of the expense. see you all on the battlefield.

[Allday]

I peronsally think this is a heck of a achievement (unless you are using PC dummy accounts to add to your roster size).
