Might be a good idea to actually start posting server points xD
Sad thing is, if the matchup this week is somewhat even like it has been for the past month, the matchup next week will again be identical.

I wouldn’t bet on it, they have some serious fight in them.

If by serious fight you mean Umberglade supply camp fetish, then yes, yes they do!
Good fight @ Stonemist HG, i was the person on the treb hitting your ones in Wildcreek :P

Props to SoR. Finished third in the final hours yesterday but came out fighting strong. Most servers would have given up. IoJ though… you guys had this massive burst to claim 2nd but have another poor start? Outmanned this early in the matchup is going to cause another uphill battle.
This matchup is getting pretty stale to me. It’s like the same story every week. Good fights happen when the numbers are fairly even, but eventually IoJ and SoR run out of reserves. Blackgate has coverage in all 3 timeslots. The others don’t. Repeat ad nauseum.
Unless something happens population wise, it will probably just continue. I guess you just have to shrug your shoulders at some point, and question the sanity of it all.

Eh, I know most people on SoR are actually rejuvenated and ready for another round.
We just like fighting for the sake of fighting regardless of the results.
When we had our weekly pre-reset server wide guild meeting, everyone was pretty amused about our loss and how we’d have to do better next time around.
While I agree the population imbalance is pretty blatant and significant, when we do have the same numbers, it does make for some pretty epic few hours you have to admit.
And I wouldn’t count anyone out anytime, the last match has shown the week long fights can go to the last hour.

I don’t know SoR Borderlands wasn’t the place to be tonight. Blackgate was completely dominant for several hours (all teams were even) until after they took Garrison from SoR. Made the mistake to push Dawn’s with the golems and nobody listened to the directions to GTFO and defend Redbriar. Opened the door for Red to get a hold of Redbriar which ultimately starved out Bay ….. BG held three keeps for about an hour and two keeps most of the night. Now Red will have to deal with SoR from the North while defending Redbriar the rest of the night because Hills and Greenlake are upgraded extremely well.
Props from LotD to Mezz and his crew for holding down Champ’s for as long as they did. That was enough to take the heat off of the Southeast side of the map for us to take over.
See you all on Sunday.
My advice then…
…learn from each other. Our match quality has improved each week against each other. We’ve reached the point we know each other in certain ways so now we truly start to learn. We have to dig deeper to make certain things happen.
This is becoming good you know.
Sure, I know that some people on all servers will exploit, hack, cheat, etc….But that is always a minority from a majority. We all know that WvW could be improved. We play it because we like it and have faith in it, otherwise we would not bother.
If you ever feel bored on playing your class, but you love your class so much that you want to go epic heights with it, then play another build. The more builds you learn in your class, the better you become and the more fun things are since you have options.
I run with four builds as elementalist and several armor sets that based on the WvW situation I change in and out. Its a great change of pace when playing the same build for weeks grows stale.
Wow, smack talk from SOR =0
Umberglade supply camp fetish ?
Don’t even know what that is since we spent most of last week in SoR’s Borderlands. Here is some footage from the week , mostly in SOR’s borderlands

If you were in SOR BL of course you wouldn’t know what it is…
Umberglade was IOJ’s favorite thing to take from us all last week and the week before. Then, they usually try to advance to Durios/Bravost and if it isn’t oceanic primetime, we usually respond pretty quickly.
Update, here’s a lil green from EBG, KNT crew and our friends.
Some hard work on opening night, Thank You Commander Ridculy for a well led effort by KNT and friends in EBG opening friday night.

Because SoR never attacks Pangloss right?

How is that sad? An even fight is a good fight, and I really feel for whatever server ascends into the QQ fest that is Tier 1. T2 has been much more enjoyable.
I agree. I enjoy the current matchup a lot more than I did T1.

To those Blackgate [Thai] guild that just took Hills keep in SoR Borderlands, kitten GOOD FIGHT. Our reinforced gate was at 99.999% completed and the yak bringing the final supply was just coming up the stairs, epic fight.
That yak was still determined to deliver the supplies no matter what the consequences!

No way! Our T1 match-ups did not even come close to the quality fight that we are getting with you guys from SoR and IoJ. Not to mention, good sportsmanship is huge breath of fresh air after T1. I would take this match-up for the next month rather than fight SBI again.

Score updates anyone? Have barely been able to get on since reset and its killing me

Current score… SoR holding onto Stonemist, BG collecting keeps, and a small IoJ presence fighting for territory.

Our T1 match-ups did not even come close to the quality fight that we are getting with you guys from SoR and IoJ.
I agree. Versus SBI and JQ, I felt like we could sleep walk through any fights that had anything close to even numbers. Since we moved to T2, we can’t afford to take any group of enemies lightly, since player skill level seems more on par with ours.
Definitely a lot more fun.

Can you elaborate on what I’m supposed to see here? I see a dead player and no indication of foul play. Post screenshots of consequential evidence if you are going to accuse players, or an entire guild for that matter, of cheating. We’ve been over this before, but those who cheated were kicked and the situation was handled. Let’s not make the mistake of one, generalizing a whole guild as cheaters and two, assuming anyone who appeared to be hiding in a tower or keep was cheating. Let’s keep in clean here. The report feature exists for a reason and if you think he was cheating let the powers that be make that designation. I see one player there and not a guild so let’s not go calling out a group of players who had responded to the transgressions by former guild members.

He was inside of the redbriar spot attacking the trebs above, thats once we killed him, i couldnt get a guild tag shot till he was dead, he didn’t own the tower, and was a thief
and calm down raven i was asking ICoa to look into it, since i have no idea who the player is, was simply stating its stupid to see it again after all last week

Would need more screenshots or a video to see he did something wrong. That is a pretty easy spot to get to legit (I have no idea when the tower originally flipped). A thief especially could have stayed near there a long time without being seen.
My mesmer has hidden in that tower for over an hour without being found in the past. I hope the future of the game does not become players that fail to properly sweep accusing others of hacking.

I’m not Raven, although he is in my guild. A lot of people confuse us. Honestly, I’m not overreacting; you could always send a PM to Hollywood Fiend from ICoa and he could look into it for you. If he was down where you saw him, he could have easily hid there when you flipped the tower. I’m just tired of the conclusion immediately being that someone hacked when you didn’t actually see it. Speculation should be dealt with in PMs, not posted on public boards. It just perpetuates generalizations especially when you are “warning” a guild for the supposed actions of one player.

I was repeatedly ganked last night by members of a BG guild who I believe were hacking. I don’t think I have enough evidence to send in to Anet but I intend to fraps it if it happens again in order to have them banned.
Either way, if a rep from BG wants to talk to me about what happened and take a look at the screenshots, send me a whisper in-game.

The problem being they were caught red handed already, so of course people are going to assume the worst. I am in no way saying icoa is still doing this, but they are going to have to accept the fact that any strat they do that involves hiding is going to be questioned by people until they stay clean long enough for this to blow over.
It may not seem fair to some, but it’s human nature to be suspicious.

My bad then thought i read Raven lol
Was only pointing out he was glitched INSIDE the building, he wasn’t on the outside attacking anything, was glitched into the inside of it like being underground

That’s an entirely different issue then. I thought you were taking about him simply being there. In the screenshot I couldn’t tell he was physically in the tower. Anyway, Hollywood Fiend is the ign of who you want to talk to. Playing the devil’s advocate the thief may have gotten stuck inside the tower on capture or upgrade so that is always possible. It could also be a graphical error. I’d like to know what the player has to say given your assertion.

Was an awesome 2hour siege in SM earlier. Also, someone was building flame rams all over SM when we were under siege wasting our supply…we never found out who it was.

I went to this tower, to see if I could legitimately hide in the same spot “If I was in the tower when it got flipped” [IMG]http://oi47.tinypic.com/dqsu85.jpg [/IMG] I could but I couldn’t get back inside. So either this guy is using fly hacks or you need to learn how to play.

That’s happened now two weeks in a row when a certain server hasn’t had SM at the start of the week.
IoJ had it last week.
SoR had it this week.

I’m not sure why you’re telling me I need to learn how to play.
We should stop the speculation until the person who took the screenshot talks to Hollywood and they get a statement from the thief in question. If it is a game bug, it could be pretty difficult to recreate. In the screenshot, I couldn’t see him inside the tower, it just looked like a dead person in a very reachable spot. Let’s not assume things.

I agree that’s the purpose of that screeny showing me hiding inside the wall. I was able to recreate it. I’m tired of coming to the forums and seeing things posted accusing people of cheating though. This is not the place to do that. As far as the learn to play comment this game is very complex there are many intricacies about it especially in WvW. I never knew I could hide here till I tested it on my own. Just saying I don’t know if this guy was using fly hacks but the screen shot doesn’t prove that he was, and based on my investigation the screen shot proves nothing. Lets not assume things, and use the proper channals. Lets not make witch hunts on the forums. lol
warrior and we’re the best class” Eugene
As far as KNT Blackgate has seen in our main keep, in SM when we own it, in SOR keep when we took it, and SOR SM when we took it, there are several saboteurs building random useless siege through out EBG. They are draining supply from at least both our servers, possibly IOJ as well. This recently seems to be a coordinated effort by a small group of people.
These are simple observations by myself and fellow guildy’s. Not an accusation of any kind toward any server, guild or group of people other then the ones doing it.
