Sorry you can’t win a 1v1, but it’s alright. No one excels at everything.
Can someone contact that guilds leader and inform them of this?

That does not look like a 1v1. I’ll be on in a few hours, will hit you up for a 1v1 just don’t put me on YouTube I hate how they make my norn look.
Hello Hickeroar,
The key foundation to a strong WvW experience is Teamspeak.
Voice comms beats team chat in many ways:
1. Efficiency – It takes less work to lead and coordinate.
2. Speed – TS speeds up communication by 300% or more.
3. Civility – This is often overlooked, people are more civil on Teamspeak vs team chat, the same person that seems sarcastic or condescending on team chat is usually a normal guy on TS who is curt on team chat due to the problem of text thoroughly communicating finer ideas.Point number 3 is key to building a good environment in WvW.
The most crucial is this. Barring language differences, the major guilds have to be in a server TS otherwise it will never work. If TS is empty you will never get pple in, but if you have a guild of 10-20 guys on one channel, it will get filled up pretty quickly with militia who want to coordinate with the guild. If that guild is successful you will soon get pple asking about builds and strats, that is when important information about strats, builds, ideas gets shared (points A,B, C in one go). That’s makes it a great WvW experience for all the folks in the server.

I’ve noticed that a lot of what seem to be SoR militia are pretty sturdy. How do you properly explain a build to them: A) without coming off as elitists,
without offending their precious hard-earned armor, C) in a way that communication is taken constructively and seriously?
SoR does seem to have a great track record in getting militia on-board and trained, and I think it’s a huge part of their success.
Our community server is mumble, as opposed to teamspeak, and there’s only one or two guilds that don’t share it.
Guilds communicate cross-channel, or join in the same channel, and there’s a lot of coordination. A large portion of our militia are also in mumble with us, but the “majority” of the militia are not.
We basically have a policy that we will encourage VOIP, but never “require” it (as if you could enforce this anyway), and commanders are encouraged to either type in /say as much as possible, or have their orders transcribed by someone. This happens…some of the time. xD

It was, but the other guys always jumped in, and he would run to guards when he was losing. xD
Took 3 animals, 5 guards and him to actually kill me. And sure, I should be on.
Come on people… we all know the secret to improving TC<→SoS relations is having the 2 Servers in a match together with DB
Just keep in mind that SoR is trying to keep this matchup fun and not to be a blowout. There are quite a few strong guilds and/or players vacationing from wvw this week as we are trying to keep things entertaining for everyone.
And that is not making us feel any better about things.
Well what do you need to feel better? For SoR to Green all the maps and siege up the north supply camps? WeeeEEeee that sounds real fun.
This week is good for us too though, we have a few people running tags for the first time and a lot of new players on the field. We are trying to turn a poor match up into a good fight is all. If SoS was replaced with another T2 or T1 server it would be another story, I do feel TC can compete in that scenario and even give us a run for our money. SO instead of crying about it, take advantage of it and whoop that ass, make us pay for it =DOut of curiosity, which SoR guilds are taking vacations this week, or aren’t at full strength?
A lot of us prefer bashing our heads against superior forces, even if we get our butts kicked. Nothing else lets you know where you really stand.
Though on the other hand, TC tries to do the same thing when we’re put in lower tiers – let the regulars take breaks, make room for newer commanders to get experience, etc. Not faulting SoR on that, just curious.
I stand corrected but all the major guilds are fielding way lower numbers, leveling lowbies and/or new commanders. TW is sitting this one out. At this time alot of militia and new people are getting more experience. The weekend overall score gap hints at the potential and there is no need to prove anything. The matchup needs to be fun for all 3 sides at least that’s how SoR sees it fit.
All respect for TC and SoS that come out to fight and give us a run for the money!
P.S. I’m always lucky that way so just don’t kill me while I’m doing the daily…

Well out of sheer curiocity,why is tc showing up on sm only after we cap it?
Yesterday we flipped sm,and then tc decided to gather 200 people to take it from us.
Today same drill ,opportunists much? ^^
Just to get this out there. I took it from SoR 3 times this morning. SoR you guys were outmanned 2 of those time so no shame. Point is a commander will go after SM when they feel its vulnerable and not a moment sooner.

Hello Hickeroar,
That’s awesome. Good to hear.
One other thing we do to encourage militia to join is sing along sessions once a while, especially during our weaker zones.
Also, having a couple of women commanders (Tysm lady, Wrex, Mrs Nyx, Sisters SSQ and Snowsnow, etc great commanders in their own right) help loads. The guys just pile in for some reason.

Hi to SOR, SOS, and TC.
Shout out to my old buddies in Iron from Deso. (does moorta still play?)
Hi mate. yeh Moorta still plays, but his computer is broken, he thought it was fixed tonight and he promptly dc’d from ts and the game
Hahaha. I was really hoping to spot his hammer wielding self. 
I hope he gets his comp fixed asap.
Some activities can get more people into TS.
I’ve seen most people on TS channel when Miss Lena sang.
I remember that about two hundred people or more on the same channel.
Many people ask " how to get into TS channel? " on Team chat LOL

HOLIDAY TOMORROW IN HK!!!!
expect to see me tonight (SEA/Ocn time) and some of tomorrow NA time
DDDDD
…o wait, dragon bash! XDD
Was in that group, That was just RE and a few of the TC milita giving you guys a warm hello hug. If I had to guess I would say there were about 35ish the first time we hit you outside SM we grew to about 45+ after that due to positive gains in the field. You guys were well managed yourselves, I think we all had good fun tonight, was sad when the new build hit. Hope to have some more fun battles against SoR & SoS this week.
Haha! That’s our [RE] the first and only. Welcome to TC RE, glad to see you again
Walken says HI and WOW!
