I would like to state that yes, a lot of morale was broken on the SBI frontline. There were a lot of players who got their hopes up with a driving force that we had in scores. A lot of us already had a realization of what was going to happen. It is only human nature that people would take their butthurt feelings and go do something else for a minute. I know that’s what I personally did
A lot of people assume that we are broken…
In general, there is a rather large population of us at SBI that are hardcore PvP players, though we may have gotten temporarily discouraged, we have devised some theorycrafting on how to work on the coverage issue. A lot of us see this as not a problem with the game itself, but a way to balance out the timezone differentiation. After all, this is WORLD vs WORLD competition right? Hopefully we can balance out our servers before it kills the population that caps during primetime only to see it all lost over night due to lack of people in game. The 24/7 fight is what Anet had intended, so we will try to play the game as such the best we can.
So, we can accept the fact now after what we knew what was going to happen to us happen, and move on as a team. We have not lost any guilds to another server, sure some morale was hurt, but you’ll all see what’s up soon Our apologies from the teams who needed to take a step back and let the shock value wear off of something we knew was going to happen, I think seeing that it happened over 1 night was amazing and really drained those who put in a lot of time to hold that lead during the weekend.
None of this has stopped our motivational drive on taking it to HoD and whatever 3rd team is on the field with us, we want 1st place, plain and simple. We’ll get there eventually, patience is a virture right?
Thank you for reading, and for any of those EU and oceanic guilds out there that want to join in, we offer a pretty staunch team during prime time and can continue to hold what we have during American primetime hours. We look forward to working with anyone else that would like to earn 1st
Good day ladies and gentlemen,

As a player from HoD im glad to hear that not everyone just complains, I was playing most of the week and beside a couple times SBI were really holding their ground. It was just the 1-2 day period monday and tues that really put us in the lead. For example yesterday night was the mokittenn ive had in WvW for a long time because of how aggressive you guys were
Looking forward to you getting some companions for War Machine and co. Let the good times roll.
Pure class.
+1
Get ready for some great fights.
Here here!
This is going to be a great match-up. JQ (it’s JQ with us this time, isn’ kitten ), welcome to the front lines ;-)
And Derek, those of us you see in there at the wee hours (getting unfortunately rolled from time to time) are too busy fighting to complain. On Monday night/Tuesday morning I watched everything slip away slowly but I had a fantastic time defending with a great group of people against the Henge Hordes. Really looking forward to more of it!
We ain’t got time to bleed….
Glad that SBI is still in the game. That one night you speak of is an exceptional case since it happen on a patch night and that nobody on both SBI and ET care to log in to the game after patching the game.
Looking at the current keeps, towers and other points held (especially compared to what they looked like this morning), it is obvious that neither SBI nor ET have given up. Both are still pushing hard in WvW and fielding strong teams when they can.
More than anything, that is positive testament to the future of WvW. As long as the fights stay engaging and people stay interested, then it is a success.
To provide a dissenting opinion: Even if SBI were to bridge the population imbalance and get 24/7 coverage, that would be what…. 2, maybe 3 servers with 24/7 coverage (I heard someone say around here some French server has 24/7 coverage)? How does this fix the issue at all? Anytime some other server plays these servers they’re gonna have a bad time all week. Turning a blind eye towards the problem does not make it stop existing, as well as only fixing the problem in one specific case does not make the problem go away for any other server.
HoD is an awesome 24/7 server. I, as an SBI’er, (Though I can’t speak for all players) would like to say thanks for an epic week. We had you all weekend though!
See you again next round. And the next. and the Next.
Any oceanics that wish to join us, feel free to send me a whisper or a PM. I’ll be happy to get you taken care of
I can only hope that if and when we do take first place, that the server transfer stop being free. I can live without the horrendous baddies and morons transferring from server to server just to be “Numbar 1z!”.
If SBI comes out on top next match up all I can say is have fun with all the bads filling up your ques. My condolences. And shame on Anet for letting it continue to happen.
Even though a substantial part of our normals were not in the times I was able to enter last weekend, I was still surprised SI had such a good showing. You all were tough before, but then you got serious. I was loving to challenge. I loved hearing weak people /map their “woe me, woe us, loser this, loser that.” It gave me a chance to troll the free-loaders. I hope they jumped over to SI like I said they should do. Your welcome for your sudden influx of useless PvPers. I hear you all are organized. Maybe you can make them into something.
Our servers will have each other for a long time coming. Stretch that three days to four next time. You might expose enough weak will to carry the win. Friday starts tomorrow.
Maybe SBI/HoD/ET/JQ should win matches, then lose them, just to annoy the stupid coat tail riding kittens.
Winning= “We are #1, I love you guys!!!”
Losing= “OMG you guys suck!! losers!! Im leaving the server”
