Guild Wars 2

PSA: The dolyak parade will happen in ~1 hour (7 PM server time), in TCBL! Meet by the south windmill!

Gilgamesh.7364:

I can kind of see where Seigfriend is coming from. I’ve never seen SoR at such a low PPT before and I think the main reason is because they’re demoralized. Losing Garrison, their EB keep and a 20k lead is unfamiliar for SoR.

You must be a recent transfer. Historically, SoR has had extremely low PPT outside of NA prime time. I can remember days when I’d log in early morning server time to see single digit PPT. That’s changed recently, but to say that you’ve never seen such a low SoR PPT is funny. Due to a variety of factors this week was an anomaly and I expect SoR to bounce back.

IRON joins SoR – weeks of SoR chest thumping pvd “WE IS BETTER THAN YOU!”

ZDs joins BG – SoR QQs more than a 5 year old girl that didn’t get her Hello Kitty Pez dispenser.

Tables turned = epic QQ

Youy are wrong here. When we came to SoR T1 was unbalanced, messy. 1st matchup in the leagues last week was very close, beacuse T1 became competitive and quite balanced.

That’s the huge difference between IRON and ZD moving to NA.

You realize you told him he was wrong when he was 100% correct, right? The moment SoR received [IRON] (who’s numbers squashed ANY guild BG or JQ had in the EU timezone) they went on a tear and were basically unchallenged because of numbers. Only when Coin moved to BG was when there was some resistance (with big thanks to those RK and HB who showed up as well).

The week before IRON moved to SoR, WM playing overtime along with any early NA people who had nothing better to do was exactly why BG’s EU timezone seemed strong, when in fact it was only people playing outside of their ‘timezone’.

I bring this up because that 18k lead SoR had? Yeah, it was evaporated because of people willing to play outside of their timezone. BG wants to win (especially after all the kittentalking), so much that their commanders and troops are willing to stay up a few extra hours to try and rally the server and bring it back from what started to look like a very grim Monday. If SoR isn’t willing to put in extra hours, cool. But, ZDs was NOT the driving factor of the massive cut into SoR’s lead that happened into Sunday/Monday.

It’s been said in this thread a few times. SoR’s forces went to bed with a comfortable lead believing they had it in the bag and could at the very least sustain it throughout the week. They awoke to a rude awakening.

With only about 3-4k of a lead left, its quite possible a bunch of people went “well wtf?” and pretty much everyone was demoralized because of the hard work they put in over the weekend was gone over the course of two timezones, again, thanks to overtime. That said, SoR has notoriously never ticked at kittening 15 ppt ever, fights or no fights.

I remember when SoR was trying to recruit before free transfers ended, he said “We CANNOT teach spirit, we CANNOT teach honor, we CANNOT teach motivation, we CANNOT teach courage.” You guys need to find that again.

Also, T1 in leagues was so competitive because each of the three servers have timezones that they excel in. JQ has its SEA, SoR its EU into early NA, and Blackgate has its Late NA into OCEANIC. Throw in the fact that all three servers had the achievement floodgates burst open with countless hordes of players who probably haven’t WvW’d at all, and the strategy of trying to keep JQ down due to their easier schedule for the entirety of the league, you can plainly see why it was so close. It’s a lot easier to see the cracks in a server when there is no third superpower to hide such.

excellent post.

SFShinigami.2015:

Hey you guys just need to slow it down a bit. Theres too much to read

I tried sending them to the cave but there’s too many of them

SoR isn’t demoralized.

We got caught with our pants down on Sunday night and BG flipped all our stuff to paper. It’s nearly impossible to defend paper keeps and take t3 keeps at the same time especially with BG rallying and playing so strongly. Our guys are resting for next week.

We got outplayed this week, it’s as simple as that.

There’s no need for conspiracy theories.

it has been fun playing with you guys this week. I learned from it, I hope the rest of us did too.

Just some newbie, what is so special about week 7?

The original big 3 face each other again. The 3rd wheel will decide who to 2v1 and I wager the server that has chest thumped the most leading up to that match will become the target.

Week 7 match up thread will be100x worse in terms of QQ, Tears, Flaming and accusations. and as the other poster mentioned in regards to the responders and respondees, the posting styles of the latter will quickly switch hands

The build up of bitterness after SoR lost the lead is pretty hilarious in this guy’s post history. It’s a game, bro, go outside or something.

Know what I just realized? TC is tied for first place in gold league right now. TC, drink and be merry, walk your dolyaks with pride!

it’s 2 hours different… i dont see anything wrong with it. I have been in both Russia and Uk and now im in Us

3h difference from Moscow while UK is on summer time, 4h difference now. Yes, i’m from Russia.

How the virtual table is looking as we approach week 3

Considering TC has more people in SoR bl now, I would say SoR has quit for the week.

The amount of bg chest thumping/trolling is staggering this week. Gotta give props to the couple of IRON posters with a solid pvf week.
Side note SoR’s core was forged through months of being outmanned in every timezone minus NA. If u think one loss is gonna demoralize us…….guess again.

To be honest, I was expecting a similar outcome. I guess the overall difference in population density between BG and SoR is that drastic after all.

Guess this is their definition of roaming the 2nd pic has more but they disappeared when taking it. I’m tired of Guilds claiming to roam when in fact I’ve never seen them by themselves to “Stand on Their two legs”.

Post Means
Don’t preach roaming if in fact you don’t solo roam or you roam with 5 or more.

This here is real true class of another server to do. Spawn camping with siege built on an outnumbered group…sadly I couldn’t get video to upload of them running as soon as the like 5 of us destroyed the ballista

the first thing i noticed is that we have more PPT than sor is that sad

Dedelta.5018:

Sorry we aren’t roaming around an empty map, standing on two legs fighting the air before us. The warning label clearly denotes that Blackgate is not responsible for people who do not use the other 2 exits of their spawn.

so the fact that there are exits is an excuse to be a kitten? please do tell, i’m genuinely curious.

thats true…but at least while i’ve been in bgbl the few times we’ve actually gone else where or pushed you…the group spawn camping has run away and hidden until they can camp us again or just arrow cart us in a tower…soooooooo

If this post aimed at the exits it was merely to point out that a particular guild claims to roam doesn’t. I’ve never seen them stand on their two legs when im out solo roaming or running with a few guildies

Typically Mesmer clones aren’t considered full fledged guildies.

The most asinie thing I’ve read in this thread is the few people who are saying SoR is throwing the match to purposely lower their score and get new guilds. Who actually does that kitten?

Pretty much SoR won that week match so I went to spvp yes. Then they did well at the end. Not what happen lately XD.

That is basically their own fault we are not out there because they were there spawn camping its that simple if you can’t see it I guess get somebody else to explain it to you.

Pretty disappointed this happened tbh. This is pretty heavily looked down on by myself and the people I wvw with. I’m guessing they were bored out of their minds because SoR wasn’t showing up at all though. They honestly had less map presence than TC last I was on.

There was one time when we marched our entire zerg into TC’s spawn with a couple of omega golems though. Marched them right up to the legendary defenders. That was funny. 20+ people insta killed

Yeah I’ve seen a few people when the Dolyak Parades are really big make it past the guards and live until you get a little bit past the mid steps and get teleported back to the guards and die.

Just some newbie, what is so special about week 7?

Leaked patch notes revealed that Scarlet will invade EB in week 7.

TC should come flip Bay in BG Bl, we promise we’ll let you do so unopposed.

Tanking a score on a week that is going to be a loss coupled with forum propaganda worked for BG against JQ before the league started, why would’nt SOR try the same thing. So far that “strat” has given BG 2 wins.

If you hopped on SoR and feel let down that they gave up, feel free to help take Sorrow’s Furnace from zero to hero, that is, make it interesting enough to win bronze this season, silver the next and then go for gold. It is a long term project, I know.

Obviously, a few more NA primetimers wouldn’t hurt, but what we really need is Oceanic and Euro players and especially commanders. We have a huge latin-american presence too. So help us defy the language barrier hurdles and help take this server up to gold tier! Why queue up in a lost season when you can make a bunch of other servers QQ about your transferring over? See you soon!

Cirus.5748:

How the virtual table is looking as we approach week 3

Actually, after seeing how SOR fared this week against BG, it can quite conclusively put the matches of BGvsSORvsrandom kitten points for BG and 3 for SOR. Thereby bringing confirmed points as follows:
BG: 25
JQ: 16
SOR: 17

Undecided points as potentially:
BG: 3-5
JQ: 6-10
SOR: 3-5 (likely 3)

The undecided matches being those of BGvsJQvsrandom and SORvsJQvsrandom.
In week 5, IF BG gets 1st against JQ, the result of week 7 will be a non issue, and BG will walk away with Number One.
