You fell into T8 after GoM curbstomped you at the same time Kain was continually scoring over 500k for weeks on end to beat the glicko trap (Week 52 in Milenium history). Until history repeats, you stay in T8. Everything else is window dressing and what if’s.

Yup, I remember that match-up despite my best efforts to forget it. We’ll get out one of these weeks. I just hope we don’t blow our chance and drop right back in it.

Numbers in T7 are low right now because everyone seems to be playing some 8 bit dungeon in Rata Sum. Even other PVE zones are empty. Every waypoint in Orr is contested.

If T8 attacked during a major PVE event I think they’d crush T7.

Sure, GoM curbstomped us…but they were also curbstomping HoD during that same match. The scores between HoD and SF were really close when we were in that tier and it was a tossup who would ultimately drop down into T8. HoD edged us out the week Kain skyrocketed out of T8 and we were the ones who dropped.

It should also be noted that much of the reason we dropped and HoD didn’t was because our PvXers (which is a large part of our WvW community) were not in WvW as much that week since they were getting the last tidbits of the Wintersday event before it ended. Not to mention we lost some WvW guilds during December.

Once we dropped into T8, we started seeing our PvXers back in WvW again. And just before free transfers were removed, we received some transfers that boosted our WvW community. And we’re seeing more and more PvEers giving WvW a try. We’re most certainly not the same server numbers-wise as when we dropped into T8.

And I believe that was just one week of a curbstomp, it is not like they dominated us for weeks on end.

I’ve been watching the numbers from before the 8-bit game came into play. And we have a decent amount in there too. But please post all the screen shots you want that show WvW numbers.

I was just responding to a post that was made of any ex-SF player but since I have accounts in both tiers I can post pics anytime of day and show the difference.

Truth. We were in T7 for three weeks. The first week (12/15-12/22) was SF/HoD/DR and both SF and HoD were both completely curbstomped by DR when they skyrocketed out of T8. The second week (12/22-12/29), DR went up to T6 and GoM dropped down into T7. That week, DR won, but the match was relatively competitive (222K for GoM vs 200 for SF vs 195 for HoD). Our final week in T7 (12/29-1/5) was the only week we were curbstomped by GoM (330K for GoM vs 135K for SF vs 147K for HoD).

Ok some more screen shots they are about 30-40 apart. And T7 please you guys were interested before on how we would fare please throw some pics up, cause finding the big armies is very tiresome. I can spend 30 mins on a map and not see any orange swords around. Sorry FC couldn’t get any good ones of you guys at that point and there were a bunch more ET around the corner.

And here are battles on T7 about 40 mins later, well the ones I could find there aren’t many commanders in the maps.

I was asked to post screenshots of what I saw in tier 7. those screenshots were taken on Wednesday April 3rd between 9PM and 10PM Eastern Time.

You will notice a significant difference with what has been posted.

I was taking shots within an hour of each other and those were the number that were on each of the still doesn’t match the armies on T8.

You’ve asked me specifically to post tier 7 screenshots at any given time because you didn’t feel that tier 7 had the numbers that tier 8 can have. I posted screenshots of my playtime yesterday. Look, this is silly. Every server has their peak periods and their off periods. I’m just suggesting you may have selected a suitable time for your tier 8 screenshots and a non-suitable time for you tier 7 screenshots.

Lol…I was responding to the fact that you said that things didn’t add up kind of making it seem I was being dishonest or something. The pics I’m posting are at around the same time I was taking them and there are already a few pics of our numbers at the peak times that show a ton of people.

Some one fromT7 asked how SF would match up and what better way than to show consistent screenies of the numbers on all three servers and show how all three servers down here would match up.

A shot of a group taking a supply camp is not really very convincing.

The shots of T8 are more interesting. Clearly ET has grown in recent weeks.

The shots I took were just about the same time on each server and for T7 I was running to the commander badges and to where I saw crossed swords on maps where HoD was present….after 40mins or so I didn’t really find to much.
