As a server, we Maguumaians have shown that we can dominate when the playing field is level. We just can’t match the numbers some of our opponents can produce. When we are all oiled up and working right, we produce PVP orgasms at times.

Coming from Fort Aspenwood I have experienced the absolute opposite of what you are saying. You guys have plenty of people, you just don’t put them in the right places at the right times. For example, the last two nights have been extremely boring WvW because all your people just fortify a supply camp. Which is cool, if you want to just hold that… but while you are holding it, we own 90% of all the other stuff on all the maps. This is really really boring. I know a few MaGOONba guilds were trying to hold the south supply in FA BL around 8pm last night. There were maybe 40 of them? We managed to kill them all with about 15 of us, using hit and run tactics… lure a few into overextending and then kill. It was a fun fight, but at one point they all just gave up and bunched up on the supply node for whatever dumb reason. My mesmer friend killed a crapload of them with feedback.

Just saying, if you guys actually took group of 10 or so around the map to take towers here and there, we might have some good fights starting.

Ive also noticed you guys fortify pangloss sometimes. SO basically all our random PUGs who just entered EB will slowly trickle in and die to ballista. I guess if thats fun, more power to ya. A few of us heard about it and we just had warriors run in with endure pain, fear bomb, hammer CC and wipe the cave out. So I dunno if you guys are getting an illusion of success when you hold a single supply camp against the random PUGS trying to hit it 2-3 at a time.

And the ram thing at a camp… I have no idea why someone tried golems on it, trebs from the tower north of it would destroy everything.

I guess I sound like a complaining jerk… maybe I am, apologies. But if your server is just keen on holding single supply camps, its a really really boring WvW for us, because SoS can’t put up a fight when they sleep and we are stuck with 90% of the map while you guys don’t do anything.

I’m terribly sorry that we’re not making WvW fun for you.

In light of your post, we’ll be sure to redouble our keggers at supply camps. I can only hope that you redouble your whiny posting in return, and we can both benefit.

Actually I have had fun, against SoS over the weekend when I had time to play late against them. Its just MaGOONba that is specifically boring to fight, since you guys… well you don’t do anything. If it sounds like whining to you, then cool, I’m glad that entertains you. I only commented because of what I quoted in my previous post. Something about not having enough people, yet still dominating. Yet all I see is TONS of people on Maguuma, and us winning with fewer numbers because we spread out and take the entire map and not just 1 supply camp. If you guys are really proud of holding a camp like that, cool, I won’t even setup trebs and ruin the ram layout… I’ll even petition Anet to rename it MaGOONba supply camp. My point is, that’s ALL you guys do and its a bit dissapointing. Friday when the matchup swapped we were all in voice chat talking about how this will be a fun matchup because GOONs have huge numbers, so primtime will have tons of battles all over every zone. Instead, its 90% FA owning the map. Last week we lost pretty hard to Blackgate/Dragonbrand, but it was a blast because there was always a keep siege going on or trebs that needed sniped.

Actually, Maguuma does have pretty low pop compared to other worlds. I’m not into WvWvW yet so I can’t comment on our performance there. A lot of people have said the pop seems lower on Maguuma, people have even left for other worlds strictly because of that.

I’ve also been told by a lot of people that we have excellent talent, but we don’t have the numbers to effectively play the map. We can’t be everywhere attacking and at the same time defending what we do have. Better to fortify and build out then spread yourself too thin and lose all grip.

My GOONdolances that MaGOONba is not living up to your stGOONanders. I’ll maGOONke sure to let everyGOONone know what you think about maGOONba.

I’ve been in WvWvW several times during this matchup and during FA and SOS primetime we’ve always been outnumbered. Maybe you’re running in your 10 man group and complain that Maguuma is outnumbering you.

Maybe if we do have the server numbers, we don’t have them in WvWvW.. I dunno. Just what I’ve heard/read/been told.

Well thats also a problem with WvW itself, defending doesn’t have a very large advantage. If you spend your evening defending a keep or something, getting it all upgraded and fortified… it might just get night capped anyway. Maybe they will implement some point bonus for a fully upgraded keep to encourage defending and attacking it. Or perhaps a few hours of lockout to the tower (magic shield or something) that way you gain a benefit from actually getting it to that point of upgrade. I dunno, but something could improve it.

Maybe Maguuma might have less people on the server itself, but the amount showing up to WvW seems to be plenty compared to what we have also queueing. The big issue I keep seeing is all Maguuma forces move as a single unit and don’t try to hit multiple things at once. Our commanders are constantly coordinating things like that.

Your anecdotal evidence is wrong and you should feel bad for using it as fact. Not that anybody from Maguuma cares if you’re bored.

I think the point is no matter how many Maguuma are on a map they’re never actually doing anything useful for their server. You guys were fun to fight at first when you were actually applying tactics to the battlefield but now you might as well have given up completely as you (as a server) are tagging one camp and then instead of moving out from there you just purposely waste all of your siege and call it a victory. And a well fought one at that!

@Badwrong: Take a break this week and start getting ready for the actual competition coming up between us, Blackgate, and Tarnished Coast. Time to get killed by some RPers!

I’ve been in the GOONs for various games. Loved playing with them in EVE. If you were actually reading, I said we were looking forward to being matched with their server because they typically have many people and that means more fights. Instead they have many people all in a single spot.

I’ve seen many people call the server MaGOONba or MaGOONa… I thought it was a good nickname. If GOONs don’t like it, then I wont use it, apologies. However it would seem very odd for a GOON to be offended by a nickname, typically their guilds/clans say “have a thick skin or GTFO”.

So if I’m following this correctly, Maguuma is assigning 30+ people and siege to defend a supply camp and then complaining that they’re outnumbered on the rest of the map

No, here’s the correct logic: Maguuma does a fun, one time event that everyone participating on Maguuma enjoys, and Fort Aspenwood takes it to mean this is all Maguuma ever does and lol what a bad server!

I was on last night from about 8 PM – 12 AM EST (from Maguuma) and there was a good number of us actually fighting with tactics taking/losing/re-taking stuff all over FA Borderlands. It was just a few people that decided to build up all that siege and it (not surprisingly) caused us to lose almost all of the little momentum we were building. That was when I left, and it looks like it got a little out of hand later on. Out of hand in the sense that the cops were called and told everyone to turn down the music.

Also you pretty much try to summarize the whole matchup from a few events such as Ramalot and such. That’s wrong and your attempts at chest thumping by saying we have equal number is inaccurate. I think when you run with your zerg you only see 20 people when there are 80. This invisi zerg has warped your mind.

^ this right here. Over the holiday weekend, they provided some great brawls. It just seems like once the score gap went so high they gave up. It was also very challenging to fight them while trying to redo everything SoS messed up while we slept. No offence to them, I’m sure they hate how we do the same to them while they sleep.

Really, people need to stop looking at the stupid score. All the score proves is who has more active people at more times of the day. That’s it.

The friendlies on the minimap are not invisible. All their dots show. That’s how people have been posting screenshots to Anet to prove there is a huge issue with the player culling. So no, I’m not running with some huge zerg that I don’t know is there… I’m always checking the minimap to see where our people are to try and coordinate attacks.

Its odd that you guys are being defensive. You posted pictures showing that you basically gave up by rallying up in a single supply camp. That right there tells me you no longer wish to go capture anything on the map… which is giving up, plain and simple. You can call it chest thumping or whatever, I’m just letting you know its dissapointing. But stop being defensive when the previous page is nothing but bragging about giving up and excuses like player population.

Actually this is like the 20th time I’ve seen a crapload of siege at a supply camp from Maguuma. If the ram thing was a one time event for fun, then I take back what I said and it does not apply to that event. However the 19 other times you guys do give up, fortify a supply camp and ignore the rest of the map is where my comments do apply.

Fri-mon, good fights vs Maguuma.
Then since the score got so far ahead you guys seemed to just give since tuesday. Since then I’ve seen complaints about population, while still bragging about great tactics. However the only tactics I’ve seen are building a crapload of siege at supply camps. Which tells me you guys have given up at actually controlling the map. Dragonbrand last week gave us a beating with tactics, we lost, but it was great.

We did have 3000 brothers banned this week. But, it’s OK, certain FA guilds have paid to have control of certain assets this match

I’ve been on during prime time every night and I think you are sorely confused.

“A few events” that have been the only times Maguuma has shown up in force to WvW this matchup. During these “events” (which happen every night) Maguuma has more than enough people (with multiple individual/presumably organized guilds representing in numbers) but instead of actually fighting across the map they take one Camp/Tower/Keep and focus on that for the entire night. It just seems like a waste of resources. Wouldn’t it be more fun to actually contribute to the fight even knowing you won’t be on the scoreboard?

You know me, getting all angry about winning. All I’m saying is that fighting against you all is boring. Not infuriating, BORING. lol

And it really isn’t that bad, moving from HoD it’s a nice break until we move up the ladder and are pitted against more competitive servers.

Well, all of this tells me one thing. I need to familiarize myself with WvWvW more and get to a point were I can command like I did in WAR. Sounds like we have a lack of dedicated commanders or leaders on Maguuma. Could be wrong, but sometimes a little direction goes a long way.

This matchup was hard on Maguuma as explained previously. FA dominates during the day with their zerg and SoS at night with their zerg. FA seems to always be at the right place at the right time for some reason with their zerg. SoS zerg is pretty massive and slow moving. I really like how they show no qualms about dropping 10 trebs, 10 cata, 20 rams on a tower. Maguuma is a bit more stingy on siege probably because we have fewer numbers.

Anyhow, don’t go around chest thumping until you’re in our position with lower numbers and then having to contend with massive zerg 24/7 + the occasional hacker.

I doubt anyone is kitten on FA.

We just pointed out how this turned into a boring matchup in the last two days. Stop being so defensive.

If anything, you guys are pissing off other people on your own server. When I see someone complaining that they lack the numbers on your server, but I see HUGE numbers of people at a supply camp… then you are only trolling your own people. The only effect is has on us is we are a bit bored with WvW the last two days, no biggie, new matchup tomorrow. The only real damage I see is your own server, where people are waiting in queue to actually PVP while you guys sit your entire population at a single supply camp.

But hey, I’m not your mother like you said. So you go ahead and pack as many people into one spot. Won’t bother me one bit, but good luck with the rest of your server who’s time you are wasting.

Why do I sit at the supply camp!! 4 times this week my guild has taken towers upgraded them fully only to have an FA or SoS guy use the fly hack and go to the lord and take it. So enjoy your boring match up why waste the money to even try when that happens. We work to get the orb ohh ya the great FA server hacks it yet again there is no point to even try till they fix the hacks and rendering issues. Not blaming you or your entire server but its happening and that really kind of defeats the purpose of trying to get anything accomplished.

And thats the entire point, you guys aren’t vastly outnumbered. But it probably feels like it to a lot of you because all your forces are just sitting at a supply camp.

And stingy on siege? Please, just go look at the previous page. You guys absolutely LOVE siege. I’ve seen maguuma get into so many inner walls then setup trebs, catas, arrow carts. Of all the WvW I’ve done since the game released, you guys use MORE siege than any server I have seen, period. You guys also waste your use of siege more than any server I have seen.

Yes, you do, but mostly because we want more people. The supply camp thing was very well led, it was hardly a disorganized effort. Don’t let these Fort Aspenwood guys trick you into thinking we have tons of people just waiting to be commanded when we probably couldn’t fill two borderlands in the evening. The hordes just don’t exist. I really don’t understand why they are presuming to know more about our population than we do.

Yes, we do silly things like fortify a supply camp and shoot fireworks off. It’s fun for us, but by no means does it occupy a significant amount of our time. Morale dropping is a reality that affects many servers, not just ours, and picking an objective to accomplish is a way to help morale.

FA seems to always be at the right place at the right time for some reason with their zerg. SoS zerg is pretty massive and slow moving. I really like how they show no qualms about dropping 10 trebs, 10 cata, 20 rams on a tower. Maguuma is a bit more stingy on siege probably because we have fewer numbers.

And thats the entire point, you guys aren’t vastly outnumbered. But it probably feels like it to a lot of you because all your forces are just sitting at a supply camp.

And stingy on siege? Please, just go look at the previous page. You guys absolutely LOVE siege. I’ve seen maguuma get into so many inner walls then setup trebs, catas, arrow carts. Of all the WvW I’ve done since the game released, you guys use MORE siege than any server I have seen, period. You guys also waste your use of siege more than any server I have seen.

You really are a troll that shouldn’t be in this conversation. You obviously only WvW during the “events.” Just state it so and don’t try to make your statements as representing this whole matchup.

Eight of us camped the Godsword vista yesterday night. Forty FA valiant defenders showed up to wipe us (twice), including the setting up of a cata to counter our arrow carts up top.

Forty.

How is this incentive for Maguuma to not keep doing single location events. It annoys you, it entertains us.

You need pictures of all of the dead people!

For what it’s worth, I really intend to get involved and lead. I may not go for the commander title just because I don’t see myself being on as frequently as many others but I do have every intention of doing what I can to increase morale and make us as effective as I can within my own ability. I literally haven’t heard a single person on our server say that we have good numbers in WvWvW, but I have heard that we have fun, and we have plenty of potential to do well and when we can get a decent group we do great. I’d much rather be the underdog, it takes TRUE skill, and TRUE tactics to overcome an enemy in that situation.

So look for me in the future, I’ll be doing my best to push Maguuma to the top

FA guys are confusing… trying to tell us we have equal numbers when we cant even fill 1 BG is a little funny.

Someone mentioned that our guys are waiting in queue while we screw around in a supply camp…

NEWS FLASH: Maguuma has had no queue on any BG during primetime for the last few days.

My summary of this week’s matchup: Mag can field enough to fill maybe 2 BGs on the weekend for launch. After the weekends that drops to maybe 1-1.5 BGs of folks. This week has been SoS claiming everything after hours, FA claiming everything during the primetime, and Mag has done our best to hold what we can, when we can.

Last night we had retaken everything in our end of EB, and we decided to go poke at SoS on FA borderlands to blow off some steam. Took the supply camps and the tower, then the keep. As well as 20 or so of us taking every supply camp on the map running counter-clockwise and crashing the zerg vs zerg fight over the Bay on the North East side of it. That took EVERY LAST Mag player that was in WvW at the time. While we did this, EB emptied out and FA took the whole map. Had fun, had laughs, logged off. After that it looks like people had a kegger at a ramalot. Kudos to them, wish i had been there to dance.

Sorry we dont have massive coverage like you, but at least I NEVER have to wait in queue, and have fun when i am on. You can sit around holding all your pixels vs nobody, and pat yourself on the back when you do. Grats.

If you really want to play vs numbers, come join us, you will never be lacking a fight when you log in.

I guess I’ve offended you, or you just use “troll” to refer to anyone who’s opinion you don’t agree with.

Either way, my apologies. I can tell you guys aren’t open to criticism.

You’re welcome to your criticism. I’m just pointing out your inaccuracies.

What, that’s not true at all, there were queues just last night, I waited like 10 minutes myself and had to stall 15-20 for everyone to get through.

Which is also your opinion, so… opinions.

The only fact here is the score. And I think the score is kitten anyway, since it only really shows server activity during different times of day.

Would be cool if they kept the same matchup times, but changed the score to reset in 4 or 6 hour blocks or something. So then a server can say, “we lost monday night, but we will restrategize and try to get them back tuesday night”. It would surely encourage people from giving up by tuesday.

Yeeeesh this matchup is gonna be over tomorrow

I say everyone just lets this thread die starting now

I’m almost positive the hackers just congregate to the winning server each week and hack it up. The same type of person who is gonna hack a game to win is the same one who is gonna transfer to the winning server just to have an easy time.

Last week against DB and BG, there were no reports of people from FA hacking at all. Instead it was all people from DB hacking the orbs since they had the lead the majority of the game. This week its FA, and we most certainly didn’t have any hackers last week (we got crushed against BG and DB, hackers would have been a blessing).

Just another reason server xfers need to stop.

Wow, I’d never thought I’d see the day where someone actually thinks placing 15 rams and other siege in a supply camp, along with people running around naked with fireworks was some sort of strategic move. By the way, while that was going on the other borderlands were nearly empty.

We have a lot of hardcore WvW players on Maguuma who spend a lot of effort and time to build things up. We turned the FA borderland completely blue one night and held the FA orb for over 2 days without even having the outer wall breached. Unfortunately people burn out playing a lot and we just don’t have the numbers to continue that sort of presence on a map.

8 of us wiped you off the roof of the Vista, not 40. We did set up a cat that ended up being too far away because I thought it would be a fun thing to make you guys going flying off the roof.

8 not 40.

No man, that keep you thought you kept the orb in for two days was actually just a supply camp.

Today we had a fun bug. In FA borderlands we got the orb at garrison. However something destroyed the altar. (No it wasnt quaggans and lightning since we controlled them all.).

I picked up the orb to put it back. But it wasnt possible as it normally is. After the timer the orb reset, and as expected we lost it as soon as another keep was taken.
