Server-wide truces are selfish, especially during prime time hours.
Many people only have a few hours a day to WvW. To log on and find no fights because someone is organizing a PvE event is kind of crappy.
If you must do something like this, schedule it for the off-hours, like before noon.
One player’s off hours is another’s primetime.
If you want to party with another server, use guesting. That’s why the feature is there.
Since you won’t be fighting others, there is absolutely no point to schedule your event in WvW. You can do it in PvE, and not impact the play of others in WvW.
Hexin,
Just wanted to drop a short post to say I think you’re lovely for trying to organize such a selfless thing. Props to you.

It’s to get vista’s and poi’s in WvW … so the above is not possible.
EDIT: Thanks Jayne, would take buy in from all the big guys who are likely looking at my post thinking not a chance. But I’ll ask them all later, if they don’t want to, then so be it, but will at least try.
If kaineng actually played for points they would be in tier1. they play just enough of it to stay on top in tier2.
edit: When kaineng plays for points and you can see it when they played against BG, they would slaughter TC. To say they play just as much as TC is inaccurate. Go back to those scores and you can see what kaineng is/was capable of.
It’s a bit unfair to use the Stackgate matchup for context, here. Kaineng could ‘slaughter’ TC there because of their nighttime presence, which TC had almost none of. When it came to NA, one server was getting rolled by nascent-T1 Blackgate as much as the next.
Hexin I also think what you are trying to organize is awesome…
but I think the overall score is now even closer this week than last.
Might be a tad difficult to convince everybody to stop competing on the last major NA Primetime window of the match.
Here’s hoping the Tier can come up with some kind of solution for WvW Completion for all of us though.
Transferring really shouldn’t be part of the already epic “Legendary Grind” :P

Before stackgate. Only the last week is when blackgate received transfers, right before moving to tier 1. I believe there were 3 weeks before that when it was only 20-30k point difference. Part of the reason I said to go back and look at the old points.

BG’s strongest timezone has always been their European which completely nullifies our second strongest timezone (TC). Which means we had 1/4 timezones to complete in (NA) and unlike FA, BG’s NA was similar to ours i.e. they played longer hours and had more west coast players. This is why the scores were like they were, not to mention BG had some extremely skilled ‘complete’ guilds and in my opinion much better defensive response times than either Kaineng or FA.
Like seriously..do not give them way-points in your borderland.

Kai turned into a superserver overnight though, of course they’re gonna have fun. Although most server that went up against em didn’t exactly share the same sentiment till they met Blackgate and TC :P
Kinda feel sad they closed our thread tho. :/

Well there’re a lot of gold sinks in the grind for legendaries. 12g for transfers could just be another one: Gift of the Traveler.
Trust me i know all about Bg’s strong points, used to command there for the guild and always in Wvw for about 2 months. Only thing I was pointing out is that Kaineng kept a close race and would blow Tc out of the water, even with BG’s main focus was kaineng 100% of the time. Seeing the score now, even with new players in TC, kaineng can and would do better with ppt if they chose to. Back to the original arguement, kaineng’s main focus in Wvw is not ppt or coverage. nor do they focus ppt as much as Tc does. I do believe TC’s main focus is ppt. Now that i think aobut that wouldnt a bunch of roleplaers be more into the battles on the field then sitting with more towers and camps and playing a numbers game?

It’s only 12G to transfer back to TC or FA? … sigh, I thought it was somewhere above the 30G mark

But focus has little to do with it. When three servers are matched up you need to test the victor in each individual timezone and unlike this match-up there wasn’t much changing in that match-up on a daily basis across the four timezones.
NA: #1 BG, #2 TC, #3 Kaineng
Oceanic: #1 BG #2 Kaineng #3 TC (interchanging 1st and 2nd)
SEA : #1 Kaineng #2 BG #3 TC
European: #1 BG #2 TC #3 Kaineng (interchanging 2nd and 3rd)
We had no timezone where we were dominant in. Kaineng had SEA and BG had the other three.
As you can see BG’s strengths completely nullified our strengths. This is why the scores were as they were. Throw in other factors such as
- TC has improved in meta, gained population due to patch and individual transfers
- TC had lost quite a few fairweather PVE-ers sitting 3rd in T2 for a while (getting stomped by SoR in a 1v1)
Kaineng does play for PPT they might not burn themselves out as a push towards T1 because I think as a server they understand they are not ready for it just yet. If they wanted to could they win T2 with bigger margins? Sure. I think they can win T2 with margins of 15-25k above 2nd place if they really pushed hard but I don’t think they want to burn themselves out BEFORE they hit T1.
By any means it would not be a blowout, which is why this is a very competitive tier. I dont consider 15-25k margins a blowout.

Wow TC, amazing push today. Every borderland im seeing tons of organized zergs from TC and rarely from FA.
We need to get together more now to hold you guys lol.

That’s not really us. Keep moving in the opposite direction
And hey as for the 5 FA that got tea bagged by our whole zerg 0.0. Sorry but we couldnt help it. You spent the hour before slaughtering everyone trying to defend Vale o.0.

we do play for ppt, but just enough to keep us above TC, that’s all…. we mostly play for fun, as an example Meow had GvG with uA last night in TC borderland….

^ This in a nut shell. We do not want to join Tier 1 at this time, too much drama in tier 1. If we legitimately wanted to join Tier 1, you would know.Tier 2 is fun and exciting, the competition is great. BTW- TC we used to have Karaoke nights, you’re no fun

I wouldn’t mind if you guys displaced Blackgate, but I have no desire to play SoR again.

Maaaybe you could bring T1 the gift of fun? SO. MUCH. FUN! (flail fail fallover)

I don’t doubt that Kai is still stronger than us, but TC will keep on pushing itself. Although I’m not too sure if Kai is ready for t1 though. JQ,SOR and BG are still way ahead of us imo….

Excuse me folks, I’m searching for T2 matchup thread. This one sounds like T1 thread with T3-worthy accusations of uneven numbers with less-skilled zergs. Could you please point me towards the T2 thread? Thank you!

If you are going to complain about numbers, you should have transferred to T8. This isn’t an organized guild vs guild. You deal with what you run into, as you needed to in T1. No need to bring such negativity to T2 considering you’ve just recently transferred.
Mad respect for PiNK & TC. Miss ya <3
Got my days mixed up and thought this evening was reset. IT’S NOT!
So with the scores this close, you’re telling me we’ve still got a chance! What’s this 1 in a million talk?

there was a kind of funny talk, let us Kaineng lose for a week….. see how it goes.. not sure if it was taken seriously though…. lol

Call it pride or self-respect or whatever; but I’d rather win a week because we fought for it and won, rather than the enemy deciding to try something new and lose purposefully. It wouldn’t be a victory for us, it’d be a big slap in our face in fact, and yeah all those “riding/sucking your whatever whatever” accusations from the 3rd server. And given the fact that it won’t change anything for the next week due to 13 rating gap between TC & KN at the moment, it won’t make sense. I’m sure most of TC can agree with me. I’d rather have us give our best against the toughest odds, and lose than have victory handed to us on a platter. Atleast we could smile that we did our best, than grab a easy-mode victory.
To whoever is planning to do anything similar to this (if there’s anything like this in plans)- please don’t embarass us as your opponents. Let’s not defeat the purpose of WvW.

Or your could prove everyone wrong and win two weeks in a row. One time might be a fluke/thrown match, but two? That you will have earned. =)

Lol…. closer and closer the score gets… harder and harder the sell gets on the keep. If TC is able to push it hard all the way, all night long, to reset. Then green keep vista point will be a breeze next week
What the lolkitten am I suppose to do here … kinda expecting a ppt push for next 3 hours but just going to draw out the defense mechanism in everyone. Well must be good battles, so going to jump in and check whose what and where.
Some fun skirmishes around kain ruins the last couple hours, I donated a lot of loot bags, sadly probly not a lot of wxp though. Good times.

Now they’re in the pits again and I’m afraid most of their bought transfers are going to start leaving.
umm… what would give you that impression?
Ahh, waiting on TC to take the bait in EB QL was epic… then we all left and you killed all the siege. You guys were smart not to charge in
Last one for the night for me. Work tomorrow, as much as I’d love to keep pushing for points. Good hard fights in TCBL this evening. Nice work in Bay, FA, it was scary for a few minutes.
Well done TC for their performance this week. Don’t listen to the FA trolls! Great fights everywhere.

Thanks Andy!
This is really a nail-biting moment for TC.
However, FA definitely brought more pain this week. I’m sure once the Adventure Box mania fades off, they’ll bring even more in the weeks to follow. Great fights from all 3 servers this week.
