Hydrophidan, please refrain from revealing TC strategic information to the enemy. Spies could mess up our feng shui.

Agreed, please do not reveal our strategic information to any exterior parties. We wish to keep everything supporting our positive Qi.
That aside, I beg TC to focus all their efforts this week on ensuring our Citadel and Home Spawn points are filled with the correct siege, meaning having good Qi. Ask our strategic masters about correct placement and for the correct manner of placement. This will improve our overall universal placement and hopefully lend us success on the scoreboards, because we all know we do not go onto the battlefield.

edit: My post is so horribly lame compared to Hydro’s (which wasn’t there when I first posted honest!) that I thought about just deleting it in shame -but decided it would be better just to give him props for his instead!

But Gary told me to do it, in between psychic readings!
He said, ‘transparency elevates the soul. They will be crushed by our honesty.’
I’m pretty sure he was moisturizing with avocado dip at the time. At least, that’s what I hope those sounds were. Ew.
Wait…spies? Is that why I keep finding the rams set up on the east/west axis? Following the path of the sun is a different system, people! Flame Rams are obviously meant to point south. Duh.
“Worshipping nonsense and imagination” — Hayden Herrera (paraphrased)
I left BG to go play with another guild on another server right as they went to T1. I was just watching some recent video’s of Knt/Icoa/etc, and they have definitely improved from what I can tell.
Knt always had some good leadership, so it doesn’t surprise me that their core adapted and learned. Icoa I always thought of as a collection of pugs (no offense, but back in T2 you guys were pretty disorganized a lot of the time). Now when I watched a video with Icoa, I was like wow that’s not the same guild I remember.
Well as a member of ICoa for the last 2.5-3 months let’s just say our leadership/commanders have put in countless hours learning and refining our current overall guild zerg/build/strike force strats. Every night we are refining and discussing and posting on our forums changes and builds. There are nights in places such as EB we wipe zergs 2x+ our size over and over and over now. The major thing that actually causes any wipes we encounter is the element of surprise; especially when doing something else. Give us a chance to see/know a zerg is incoming and our win % is probably in the 90’s unless we are outnumbered 4-1. How are we doing this you say? Go learn how yourself; we have by putting the blood, sweat, and tears on the battlefield and research.
What ICoa is today is NOTHING compared to what we were 5/6 weeks ago and will be NOTHING compared to what we willl be in another 5/6 weeks as more and more members adopt our overall builds and strats and gear up appropriately. Me personally I have 2 classes fully decked out in 80 exotics w/ a large amount of karma that I am basically shelving (as they are useless) and now leveling 2 other classes to use for our guild strat and there are many more in the guild like me.
It’s funny on the BG TS how many times other guilds ask ICoa ask us for help somewhere and yet we get the least amount of respect/shout out from our opponents amongst the major wvw BG guilds. That’s fine. We don’t care. Let others have the glory and respect. We will be the grunts steamrolling everything and collecting our bags while complaining we need to empty our inventory every frigging 10-15 minutes out on the battlefield; not being wimps standing behind some gates pounding our chests that way when we get alot of kills (as so many others on these forums do). We get our loot taking things and wiping things. We don’t beat our chests when wiping people when we are defending sm/garrison etc.

We of the Tarnished Coast Sensitivity Committee would like to take this time and opportunity (if you’re comfortable with that) to apologize for Sins Vorkag’s language. Particularly the use of the demeaning word ‘wenches’ (we advocate the less disparaging “Horizontally Inclined Person” or “HIP”).
We wish to emphasize the profound respect we hold for people of all classes and levels of promiscuity. And we also wish to assure you that we believe every individual has a fundamental right to dignity. Even if the person happens to be inflicted with scurvy (which we’ve been given to understand is quite common amongst the ranks of our opponents).
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you. And we’d advise incorporating feng shui into your server’s field strategies, in order to counter vitamin deficiency and help promote a healthier community.
Thank you.
lol TC has the most fun forum warriors. Thanks all!

This match has all ready been decided. We all now that BG is going to win. TC or FA doesn’t have the coverage BG has. Primetime will be fun but its a shame the winner has been decided before the match even starts.
This may have been true for Fort Aspenwood of old, but there’s a reason people sometimes call it “Fort Janthir” these days. With the 10+ guilds FA gained from IoJ, this server is a force to be reckoned with. They’ve got the people, the time zone coverage, and the morale to make this a serious fight.

They still have a very serious time zone gap. Picking up IoJ guilds only fills in an Oceanic need. Now that may be enough for T2 and T3 but it’s not enough for T1. BG is a T1 ready server they don’t have a gaping coverage gap.

Hmm one question. How would you know the commanders rage and lash out at those around them?
A mixture of friends on the other servers telling me so, an observation of our own commanders and a general understanding of how humans behave.
For example, one can tell quite easily if an enemy commander has been emotionally bothered if he decides to chase your small group with a zerg for a long time without any benefit at all. Of course, not all of those lash out on their own people, but some do.
This actually makes me feel a little better about how we’ll do in the match… we have some very good small groups that can put out the pain…. as well as larger forces that focus on siege. As far as I know our guild is the only one that goes out soley to destroy, demoralize, and farm the zergs (granted we’ve become a decent sized group ourselves)… hopefully it will be enough.
I hope you do well.
Oh, and another thing. TC is the unofficial roleplaying server and while some may think it is a hinderance to them in WvW, this is not always the case. Many TC players seem to enjoy roleplaying as supply camp/tower guards. Actually.
Expect most of their holdings to have some type of human sentry, especially early on during the game. Their dedication to guarding has lowered since we first fought them, but that may simply be due to battle fatigue. TC is the most difficult server to 4-man ninja a tower from my experience.
eg. First week we fought them, they owned their entire BL. A friend and I decided to flip NE supply camp. 10 seconds after we engage the npcs, cows and boulders are landing around us. 3 trebs were firing at us from NE tower. Our side had not owned anything in over 30 minutes, yet they had guards at this random tower.
“I smell like pomegranate.”
TC, hug your parents, tuck your children in and/or kiss your spouses good night one last time.

and pull all those guys down cuz they’ll die.”
Hey FA, blah blah blah
Sanctum of Rall: Quantity over Quality
well now i know Aza is upset and posting some silly things but don’t let that get to you. granted most fights we were up against larger forces, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t have any quality players. when your small group gets ran over by 40 doesn’t all of a sudden make those 40 people bad.
i did manage to find some small fights here and there. We won some and we lost some. every server has their bad, average and good players.
eg. First week we fought them, they owned their entire BL. A friend and I decided to flip NE supply camp. 10 seconds after we engage the npcs, cows and boulders are landing around us. 3 trebs were firing at us from NE tower.

I wouldn’t call either of the north towers random for the home team, holding them is extremely important especially against stronger servers. I think you may have bonked your head a little Sigmund Freud.

It’s random if the entire map is blue or red or what not.
Hmm can’t say I agree with that, but I respect your opinion. SoR zergs were heavy and coordinated, once they started taking stuff the map changed color really quick and you better hope someone took the time to siege up your “random” north towers.
Which is probably what that player was doing there, I doubt they were roleplaying sentry guard lol.

Lol I’m sorry but I have to say this. As an ex-Darkhaven player (I came to FA because it was my original server from launch, but went to Darkhaven for a few months because my friend wanted me to play on that server) I cant wait to face two specific Blackgate guilds.
[iCoa] Let me tell you their history.Darkhaven was beating NSP. One of the biggest guilds on NSP bandwagons over to Darkhaven, then they merge with other guilds on Darkhaven to make [iCoa] they mass recruit on Darkhaven and then a loss or two, and they bandwagon to Blackgate after recruiting a large amount of the WvW population from Darkhaven. I have no respect for this guild as it is one of the reasons Darkhaven is dead.
[GoF] Yet another ex-Darkhaven guild. They are unorganized zergs of 40+ that went from Darkhaven to CD. They were on CD a few weeks, and bandwagoned to Blackgate after CD lost ONE time. No specific hate for this guild as they seem like a good community, but server hopping to CD and then hopping off to a tier 1 server after 1 loss on CD is a bit…..lame.
These are the only 2 major guilds of Blackgate I know. No disrespect to Blackgate itself, obviously you guys have original guilds and such, but there cant be too much server pride existent, seeing as many of the guilds there came from other servers.

Maybe it is time for us to let the dolyaks rest in peace and at least make BG work for the win this week. hides

Incorrect. This incident was during the first week that TC moved up to tier 2, not lately. I assume that is why we have a difference in opinion.
TC held most of its Borderland the first week. There would be occasional pushes from the server that would go as far north as bay or hills. At the time we attacked the supply camp, everything had belonged to them for over half an hour and even before that, the fights were simply over the southern towers and supply camps for hours prior to that.
“I smell like pomegranate.”

Most TC tower people are playing house or flirting with each other. Personally, If you send me a Morch’eeba-inspired playlist on Spotify, a box of chocolates and a bottle of red wine, I just might have to return to Selma District.
edit: Morch’eeba gets censored. Morckittena. lol

Didn’t we have a crew in one day screaming about the decor and saying “this simply won’t do!” I was rather looking forward to their vision of velour fainting couches and deeply draped curtains.
At least if you closed the curtains, you couldn’t look out to that sea of angry red guys.
We on Tarnished Coast randomly attack our own holdings in order to remain unpredictable. Who are we fighting? Are we fighting you? Are we fighting ourselves? You never know! But Gary Busey knows!
When asked what his favorite cheese was, Gary Busey responded, “cake.”
That’s the sound of your mind being blown.
Oh yah.

TC, hug your parents, tuck your children in and/or kiss your spouses good night one last time.
Oh hey, I took this screen shot! I’m e-famous.
I also saved this quote for background purposes.
This will be my first post on these forums, and it pains me at such a message. I, Commander Jadon of Principality Of New Katulus [PiNK] (guild leader), very much enjoyed the dolyak walk that was meant to be done in peace, but ended up in sad state of affairs. [PD] and [BT] as well as other randoms that joined in from Fort Aspenwood server made short work of all three servers fun. Yes many do not read the forums but I doubt those from FA that were with us did not yell and cry and scream for everyone to hold fire…which was not done. While it is understood that not all are responsible for the actions of few, it is an unfortunate fact they are still on the same team as the rest of Fort Aspenwood, and the bitter taste in my mouth will only be washed out with blood. For this next week, I as a commander, intend to personally push Fort Aspenwood as a whole as much as possible and will bring the wrath of the Golem God to their door step. Prepare yourselves Fort Aspenwood, for good ol fun times.
i hope that u were roleplaying that blood thing
otherwise that’s gross. just saying.
One of my favourite quotes lol:
“So, if you looked at TC boarderland at any point monday (tonight) night, and think my idea for an FA CD alliance was stupid, YOU CAN KITTEN MY KITTEN WITH YOUR KITTEN UP YOUR KITTEN!
-Best alliance ever, love you CD!
PS: TC, you’re welcome for the trebs hitting stonemist. I enjoyed seeing FA destroy you tonight. Portal bombed, KITTEN!”
On a more serious note, I’m going to ask all TC forum posters to be mature and refrain from responding to trolls. We’re classy, remember? Let’s try and stay that way!
I won’t pretend to know what the outcome is going to be but I transferred back just because I think this will be a very fun matchup. Looking forward to seeing what happens out there.
So…what’s going on with the queues? Entire guilds aren’t getting into the maps and the largest group most maps have is around 25.

TC had this problem last week. SoR wouldn’t believe it, but it has been happening since the patch.
Enjoy the strange match everyone!
Looking forward to this matchup. Thank Zhaitan the forum warriors from that one server won’t be in the t2 matchup anymore.
I highly doubt you are talking about SBI, so I assume SoR. Will SoR be up for fighting the forum warriors that SoS has? (This is meant to be humorous, relax.)
Looking forward to Feisty’s updates and the matchup. I hope BG doesn’t kitten us too much. :P
