Can I speak out against the fight club? Honestly, the whole thing was disastrous for our server (NSP). A big majority of our commanders and a good chunk of NSP players were there. At the exact moment the fight club was underway, GoM ruthlessly assaulted our areas in EB with a massive zerg and ninjaed our keep with a ton of golems. Our entire side of EB was blue. HoD was untouched. On NSP, we have limited commanders and our WvW player count is much lower then GoM, so every fighter on the ground counts. Those of us who avoided the fight club were desperately trying to defend our keep, but it was overrun by the force of GoM’s offensive and it set us back from any hope of regaining the lead. Not to mention breaking NSP morale. If the darn fight club hadn’t been going on, we might have held them off. I’m not trying to say that GoM deliberately staged the fight club in order to distract our commanders and pull off their assault, but that was the end result. Either there needs to be a multi-server wide truce during the fight club, or we should not get sucked into having them. Either way, I vote no fight club. Wet blankets FTW!
That’s just something you’ll have to work out with your server. Fight club is a nice break from the monotony of WvW and matches are usually decided by that point in the week anyways, but it’s completely optional. I personally skipped out on fight night during primetime this week because the score was so close and I wanted to help keep it that way. Once the maps settled down a bit, I was able to get a couple of duels in before going off to bed.
Use your best judgement whether or not you should participate, but don’t try to chalk it up to some big GoM diversionary tactic. We’re far too sneaky for that. :P
Our server doesn’t understand. IoJ is freefalling out of T6, this would of been our perfect time to pop right back in. However GoM will (probably) move up and we will be stuck in T7 against IoJ and SF. And for those of you that are unaware of SF. It will NOT be pretty when they move up..
Have you looked at the scores recently? IoJ is not dropping out of T6 and GoM is not moving up. In fact, most of the rating points we’re losing this week are going to HoD, not GoM.
IoJ loses ~ 50 points a week, SF is gaining ~25 points a week. T7 points are stabilizing. Green team gets a free jump to t6 in 2-3 weeks. T7 gets SF as a friend in about a month or less unless T8 decides to play again.

I have the same screenshot but I didn’t really notice he was one of their commander. I have reported him and I can post more screenshot if needed. I was impressed by HoD morning push lately but it lost lots of credibility with this commander Hacker.
On a more positive note this is a great screenshot of my adorable back pack!
Have you ever heard of hiding? Last night we took our Garrison back from GoM I think it was because one sneaky mesmer commander hid inside the walls until about a dozen of us came up outside and he jumped out and used a portal to sneak us in.
No hacks, no cheats, just heads up play when the garrison was being taken.
First of all it was a t3 tower, there is no way he was hiding in it that long. Secondly I had just attacked the same thief down on the ground outside the tower not 1 minute before that.
What it a mesmer or a thief? I personally have seen mesmer clones appear right in front of me on tower walls and the first time it happened I thought the real player had somehow jumped up, but when I killed it I realized it was a clone.
Don’t thieves also get a form of clone? I think they do and if so, I find it easy to imagine that they are bugged in the same way and can hop up on the tower. Did you kill him? Was there a corpse on the wall? If so, THEN you have evidence, otherwise it’s just an NPC glitch we are talking about.
Yes it was a thief, I know who the player is I see him all the time. I had just attacked the very same guy down on the ground moments before, then I ran into the tower up on the wall. Then I was getting daggerstormed while up on the wall which I thought was quite weird until I seen the thief. We then downed him and spiked him.
No thieves don’t get ‘clones’ they get thieves guild, and the thieves from it don’t look anything like the player. No thieves guild cannot appear on walls. The picture Moutz posted is of a DOWNED PLAYER WITH A COMMANDER ICON, that is plenty of “evidence”.
I get that you are probably knew to the game, but you should just keep your mouth shut if you don’t know what the heck you are talking about.
You should be less of a jerk. I was trying to offer reasonable explanations of what was NOT a hack but a glitch. Turns out he was glitched through the gate. I am NOT new to the game, been playing since beta. I have four fully developed characters, but no thief or mesmer. Only recently have I started getting into WvW. I stayed away because I don’t like having to deal with jerks like you who think they are so leet they need to bash others to prove it.
If your explanation wasn’t so laughable I’m guessing he wouldn’t have replied like that.
So it’s MY fault HE decided to throw in that last line of insult? I clearly indicated I was not sure of my explanation, which he then clarified, and that alone would have been fine. You had to stoop again to the same juvenile level and throw an insult just to make yourself feel superior. Does that make you feel good?
If someone says or does something stupid you can just ignore it or even better share some of your wisdom. That is what’s supposed to feel good. Throwing insults just makes YOU look bad unless someone is already throwing them at you. And yes you can still choose to ignore them as well.
What insult? I did not call you any names or anything. I assumed you were new to the game due to your vastly ignorant description on what could have happened, ok so you aren’t new to the game but you are new to wvw and know nothing about thieves and mesmers, same thing. I didn’t even call you a noob or anything like that.
I simply stated that if you lack any sort of knowledge on a current topic, you should keep your uninformed opinions to yourself. I by the way was insulted that you tried to explain away what I seen with my own (informed, experienced) eyes away as some NPC glitch as if this was my first day playing the game and I had no idea what I was talking about.
What happend has been explained and is a quite feasible scenario, unlike your description, but you seem to be getting upset and insulted over nothing. Calm down son.

Yeeeeepp, looks like we are going to be wearing blue this week. We cannot let this stand NSP!

Nice preview, by any chance did you record the fight between me, the gom [ASH] Engineer and the warrior (?) in the gold temple armor?
At that fight i was wearing the leather temple armor and a order of whisper’s hood.

“Shut up idiot” is not an insult? I am not “worthy” of participating in the forum with you? Sounds like an insult to me. I didn’t get exited, I just pointed out your attitude.
Calling me son? There you go again trying to show your superiority. Try pretending your words are coming from someone else to you, maybe then you will get it.
I get your points, Braveheart X. And I totally agree with your overall sentiment. For the record, I play WvW a ton. And I’ve run with you many times. Yer a great commander. And I was part of your wednesday all nighter. But in this case I’m just reporting that the fight club upset a bunch of regular soldiers in WvW and caused a lot of frustration and resentment towards the commanders taking part on our server. But let’s put that behind us. How do we get NSP back to the WvW glory we used to be? You say the server is split, but what it really needs is leadership. Many times this week we had the numbers, but there were no commanders on the field. It was utter choas. GoM played very, very well. But our total lack of consistent organization and leadership at times was very much to blame. I’m sure spring break had something to do with it. And I’m sorry if my frustration came out to much in that last post. Certainly didnt mean to troll. So what’s the plan to keep NSP from sinking into T8? The fact that we won last week is encouraging and it proves when we push and the guilds work together we can win. Us regular soldiers and grunts are ready to fight for our commanders. You guys need to coordinate and get organized . We’re ready to run under your banners. Let’s turn this around.
Well having been blue for what seems like a years on end, I cant wait for a week of trying to go into the wrong color doors and towers.
So when you see me banging into the blue doors over and over trying to get in, or cursing in map chat because the game is broke, be gentle. I have a fragile ego.

Please point out where I said “Shut up idiot”, I don’t remember every typing idiot in relation to you. You are not “worthy” of participating in a discussion about an event whereas your information is completely pulled out of your butt in an attempt to argue something you have no idea about. Why would you even comment on something when you have no idea what you are talking about, that is what I don’t get.
There you go again making things up and putting words in my mouth, or at my fingertips as it may be. I never said or implied that I was superior in any way to anyone. Try lightening up a bit, then maybe you won’t get so worked up and find insult where there is none intended.
