SBI is like Seattle Slew-2 weeks in a row they are closing like a door
What I think happened last week and I see it again this week:
Fri-Sun – all three servers push hard, by then of the weekend in North America game is essentially tied.
Mon – SBI and other server take off for some reason, likely to catch up on sleep or gold farm. One server continues to play hard gets a good lead.
Tuesday – Turn around day. SBI is recharged from day off, starts rolling again. Though in last place.
Wednesday – Climbs to second place, pushing for more may take first place by midnight pst.
Thursday – Either has or takes first place and grows lead
Friday – ABC…Always Be Closing

It always starts with us taking over our entire borderland, then it just starts a snowball for the other WvW maps.
If this keeps up we will have cought up with BG in a few hours. I expect during primetime JQ and Bg will start fighting harder and we will lose some of our holdings but once our night crew comes on we will regain them again. This all happened last week.
Well it is easy to take the lead when JQ avoids attacking you :P Personally I enjoy the 2-to-1 odds. You would think by now JQ would learn you always screw them over in the end.
JQ has been absent for the most part the past couple of days in Eternal. I noticed tonight they even had outmanned buff well past 6 PM PST.
It’s a shame JQ is a ‘no show’. We basically ignore them here on SBI and hit BG nonstop. Why? We want first. Taking BGs points and adding them to our own is more efficient than taking JQs points. Meanwhile, JQ hits our supplies and attempts at QL from time to time, but they simply lack the manpower. We repel their attacks and focus BG once again.
JQ seemed to eventually give up; harassing supplies from time to time, but nothing major. I can only imagine: JQ sitting in lowlands with their force thinking to themself “Let’s not piss anyone off right now, we’re at least getting our one-third share of points”
It’s been a great match. BG came out swinging hard with their turtle tactics. It caught many of us at SBI off-guard. But we’ve adapted. We’ve found out how to repel the attacks. Today alone, I’ve seen LotD come into EB and push hard with their turtle. We repel it 2-3 times, and they leave. Strategy not working? Try a new one, don’t give up !
JQ only has 6-7 big guilds (“big” meaning they’ll field 20 or more in borderlands at a time"), and this is just not cutting it in this matchup. We’re losing because we just don’t have enough coverage.

That’s patently false, sir. JQ is losing because it’s imploding the same way every bandwagon WvW server has before it.
The 2 weaker servers alied vs BlackGate and we still holding them IM LOVING IT, i guess JQ will be out this week to tier 2 what will you do after that?
Is it funny to doble team against stronguer server knowing u dont stand a chance in normal 1v1v1?
Forest is somewhat right we have about 100ppl tops in our ts rest are pugs just having fun, although they did get in the way a couple times one being we had a planned attack to go for the orb and a pug took it. oh well
JQ also has a huge group of players from the east coast. There are far more important things to deal with in the east coast than online games at the moment. That’s if they can even get online due to the power outages.
While you were posting that, JQ sent an Omega Golem and 3 other Golems to DFB in JQBL, and about 40 people with them. You aren’t getting double teamed.

Ok we will push u on lower lands so they can take that, oh wait … nvm
I only see no agression on u 2, just attacking us and some guild comanders from your servers just said u are teaming… I think teaming is boring in my opinion, but if there is alternative u just have to do it…

Hi there. Just something to point out. It doesn’t matter how you get the win, as long as you get it. There is no such thing as 1v1 in a 3 way horse race. If you want to be number 1, you got to use a bit of politics, and less arrogance :P, Just saying.

Not many of the people I respect are using “lol” and “ftw” and “u”. But that’s me, an old guy in an old people guild in an old people server.
We are obviously double teaming BG. We just barely stopped a JQ 3-4 golem rush in SB-BL Garrison Lord Room. We managed to survive and res the Lord…but they still got our orb to reset.
BG posters are making the entire server look bad. I’m not from any of these servers but I enjoy reading the updates for the T1 matchups. I’ve never seen more arrogant posting from 1 server as much as I’ve seen BG posters in these threads.

For the record, most of Blackgate are actually pretty great and respectable people with a great community.
Ignore the non-factors like kefro and Katostrophe.

I agree. I’m not a part of any of these servers either, but enjoying the read. This is better (much better) than reality TV.
@treble
I figured but sometimes it only takes a a couple to make everyone look bad. I just don’t understand the 180 some of those BG posters have taken. I wish our matches were this good when HOD was #1.
Yeah, it’s a great match so far. Anyone who doesn’t see that and expects their server to blowout the others is a tool.
Those BG posters are the loud minority. I watched how some of the BG leaders rebuilt that server from an initial disaster, so I have nothing but respect and admiration for them. So I just lol at the few at BG who like to talk all the time, since all of our servers have those kinds of people.

Who cares who’s still on the lead. We’re not talking about who’s winning, we’re talking about the horid attitudes some of the BG posters have here.
BTW I’m from HOD, we weren’t as arrogant as BG seems to be even as we dominated most matches. So you can save the “who’s winning” talk for someone that cares.

Whoa awesome. This matchup looks really good right now; congrats on the comeback, Stormbluff! From our match a couple weeks ago, I knew you guys were worthy opponents, and it’s good to see you holding up to those expectations : )
A bit part of why matches were not like this when HoD was #1:
1) JQ and SBI hated each other vehemently. Neither server cared to 2v1 HoD in fear the other would backstab (which happened often; this is why JQ and SBI hate each other so much) That seems to have relaxed a bit, and we’re not at each other’s throat AS MUCH anymore.
2) At SBI, we dreaded coming in to see everything green for the simple reason that we had kitten for EU coverage. We’ve adapted. We’ve gained some EU tz presence, but its still lacking. Overall, we’ve come to accept we’ll have to work a bit harder in NA primetime and keep morale up.
Morale is key. SBI morale stays strong despite the kittentorms that come our way.
Am I the only one who’s enjoying this match? I’m from BG btw since day 1, this is the funnest & one of the tightest match for me. I’m enjoying it, props to all 3 servers.

I’m wondering if you realize a large portion of HoD WvWguilds moved to Blackgate…. SO Blackgate players in WvW have a high likelihood of being from HoD.
I don’t remember BG trash talking this much in the forums either until a few weeks ago when the surge of transfers hopped on over.
