Wow whoever on BP just flipped nearly all of SOS BL great job!!! Gonna make tonight more interesting…also you guys enjoying karma training our side of EB obviously

thanks:) me n my guildies were flipping camps for a while then started BO then took another north tower. then hidden lotus made a golem to solo hills and he got south gate down so we assisted on inner. then the BP karma hounds sniffed us out and joined us and took everything else over along with another guild, whos name escapes me atm. OH and, nearly? want to change that to ALL of their bl? TWICE!
Edit: I love how there is a clear strong presence in eternal tho, thats ok we will just take all of your bl

Same

Ah, but the difference between BP and SoS is a whole 6 ranks Gonna let a 13th ranked server do that to you?

I am a teef

I’m aware of that.

You didn’t answer the question. Did you think I was responding to you?

One does not simply walk into a conversation between two people, and expect feedback from only one source, lol.

Still applies. ^

It’s not a conversation between two people. But, even if it were, I would expect the reply to make sense. Again, you never answered the question. There are three ways to make sense of your reply:

1) You think I was accusing you of leaving something out.
2) You think I was accusing him of leaving something and your are saying he didn’t
3) You misread things as 1) and replied before you realized I wasn’t talking about you.

Which is it?

None of the above. As stated it was an open ended conversation you walked into. I just happened to be the one to humor you with an answer. If you didn’t wish to speak to me (which at this point is obvious), you probably should’ve specified precisely who you were addressing in said open ended conversation. I do however see where you’re coming from on your end.

There is no “none of the above”. You specifically addressed the leaving out of information.

Didn’t leave out nothing lol.

Double-negative aside, you are either saying you didn’t leave something out or he didn’t leave something out.

At least I responded at all. Not something that will happen again, lol.

Excellent!

about the ranks… SoS may be ranked 7, but is not news that we lack of NA presence, the only thing we can do during NA time is to bunker down and defend at most, if we can keep 200+ ppt it’s good enough, yes sometimes we would lose almost everything but hey is part of the game, we’re not going to complain because another server has a stronger NA presence.

Also, I find funny that BP thinks we have queued maps all day LoL, If for some rng reason you get matched against TC or DB you will know the real meaning of queued maps.

Oh don’t worry, we know SoS is weak in the evening North American time and fully exploit this. Sad thing is though Ehmry Bay is strong in this period too so we get pulled in two different directions, and cannot totally cap Ebay Borderlands, SoS Borderlands and Eternal all at the same time like SoS can do in the Asian Evening. So chances of first place is simply not present simply because its WvWvW. Would be interesting to see what could happen if it was 1 v 1 though, and how the different time zones would be able to swing it. Or even 1v1v1 where we are the only North American server and Ehmry and SoS were both Oceanic/Asian.

As it stands though we just have to content ourselves with strategic retaliation, blowing up all SoS keeps in the evening since ours will get blown up in the morning.

Lol well you guys honestly are getting the good and bad of SoS. I know many commanders were burning out fighting TC and T1 servers every week but 1. Our fair weather players don’t show during harder matchups and focus on PvE. Typically I would say they make up half the NA primetime.

As you can see, this leads to 2 things. 1 is that they tend to come out in numbers throughout the week. So our NA prime time is typically 2x what it is against higher tiers than ours. The benefit you have is that many are WvW noobs, do their own thing, and run terrible for WvW zerker builds and gear. So take that as you will.

Many of the elite commanders I noticed have been taking a break as well or not showing up as much (probably for that reason). With PvE content releasing our numbers should drop dramatically and you could potentially make this matchup interesting.

Finally, our oceanic is awesome. Its an exaggeration to say they queue all the maps though, I know occasionally I can’t sleep and stay up that late. Those Aussies and others are hardcore WvW and rip almost everyone a new one. So definitely don’t feel bad about that time. They consistently ripped TC, and the T1 servers a new one for the majority of our points.

So in conclusion NA primetime is your best bet, just beware if some of our larger guilds decide to play or AGG goes on a roam.

PvE effects everyone equally so you can’t really use that as an excuse.

Your Oceanic/SEA numbers are impressive but keep in mind they are fighting nobody because BP and Ebay combined have like 10-15 people?

Even though BP is losing by 80k or w’ever it is don’t think we’ll ‘fairweather’ and give up and I don’t think you guys should too. We’ll be there for the next 3-4 days giving you guys a hard time in tier 4.

Also, shoutout to [Agg]. First time I saw you guys today in Ebay BL. Really gave us a hard time and stole a lot of our loot from Ehmry..

We would call those casuals, lol. And as for elaborating on your second paragraph, I’m not attempting to be deliberately insulting with that or the following, so take both with a spoonful of sugar. I presume a great deal of your server’s overall numbers are indeed pugs and casuals. I base this on the fact that as a solo roamer, not once so far this match-up have I encountered a single or duo of players in the open field that will stay and fight me (Well, minus Mr. Canar. I called him out personally though, and he answered. Stand up fellow that one, and no doubt a boon to your ranks). They’ve always run away and often come back with greater numbers just to kill me (and even then sometimes failing to do so). Again, I’m not directly trying to poke you with this, it’s just my observation. I have to come to this conclusion because it’s not something I see with Borliss’s crew. I find it humorous actually in that if my assumptions are correct it means our server and yours are polar opposites. We tending to excel a small-scale combat, while now unable to contend with your numbers…

Us losing those two groups of roughly forty-five really good people overall still saddens me. Probably will for a while. =_=

This is where I must stop you. There are many players in the SoS army that are insanely good at solo roaming, and I’d be truly scared to fight a few of them 1 on 1 to be honest with you. You guys caught us twice on low pop’. Last time because we were tired of TC, and this time because of this new content crap. I know a few people from a few guilds here that would give you a good run for your money. They’re just burned out from us getting owned by those kitten T1-2 servers.

Likewise, and you do yourself too little credit in my opinion. We could both use a bit of refinement, everyone could. Anyone who believes otherwise is of themselves is either deluding themselves, or is a braggard. I also have no way of confrmning nor denying your claim though. It is entirely possible I’m not seeing your best. I would certainy hope otherwise actually. What I am seeing however is not entirely unlike the account you relayed to me in our discussion, about a certain member of a certain guild. The difference is I’m seeing it over, and over, and over… Most frustrating lol.

The thing about SoS that is being missed here, is that we don’t feel the need to pull out a curbstomp every night.
We are not so insecure or desperate for Wxp that we are going to exhaust ourselves to run up a ridiculous score and PPT.

That being said, sorry for not putting up a better fight on our BLs last night but our NA (outside of AGG) is almost purely PvX and we have always been disproportionately affected by shiny PvE stuff.

Nah, I don’t think people are missing the point. Fact is, both Ehmry and BP prefer to sleep then play Guild Wars 2 at the time when SoS is awake. It really does not matter how many people SoS brings at 4 AM. When there are only 15-20 people online on all maps for the opposition, you are going to rampage through gates and there really is no stopping you. At best, every early morning is an extended delaying action.

tbh, this situation is evidence of a design oversight more then anything else. There are European Servers, and North American Servers. But there are no Asia servers for Korean, Chinese, Australian, Japanese etc players. Which means these people have to gravitate towards a specific European or North American server. In the case of the North American servers though, Asiatic prime time lands smack in the middle of our “OMG I NEED SLEEP” time, and their early AM “dedicated” time lands in our “Gotta work/learn” time. By the time we can get to our keyboards, everything has been flipped and Asia has gone to sleep.

I think I’m done with this match for the week (personal stuff). BP was a pleasant surprise and I expect them to tear stuff up in T4; but I was really looking forward to EB, then so many of their people jumped ship to be T1-T2 cannon-fodder.

EB, may you land gracefully in your descent (may it be much softer than AR’s). BP, we’ll probably see you again and I hope you bring the fight again. You just need a few tweaks and I think you can be a real threat to YB and CD.

By the time we can get to our keyboards, everything has been flipped and Asia has gone to sleep.

BP chest thumping more then Ebay? That’s really saying something. You seem to know a lot about our oceanic timezone, so as a regular commander for SoS and someone who plays oceanic times, I’d like to rectify some common misconceptions people from your server seem to have against SoS.

Let’s start with this queue you speak of. What the kitten is a queue? (Btw I actually said kitten Anet so you don’t have to censor this one Lol) As Asuna pointed out, we havn’t had a queue since the SoS/CD/SBI matchup. Running with AoA, we’ve been able to float with our 20/25 man zergs easily all night, every night. I would go so far as to say our Oceanic crew is as large as our NA crew, the only difference is the number of opponents we face.

As for these claims of wiping these “queued map zergs” with only 20 BP. I don’t ever get a repair bill running in oceanic times, and have to make multiple trips to the merchant, because some people like to collect their merchants … LEMON. Anyways when I command SoS oceanics, all I do is say stack, and they do the rest for me, training achieves great things Of course that’s not to say our numbers don’t help. Really just pic/videos or it didn’t happen.

I’d also like to point out how self centered you guys sound when you complain about night capping. You realise you “night cap” us too, evident by your picture you posted of your BP Borderlands 2.0, yet I don’t hear any SoS complaints on this forum.

So really I’m sorry, but you have been grossly misinformed on really every piece of information you have posted on these forums about our oceanics. Now I don’t know where you got this information, personally to me it sounds like you pulled this information out of your kitten (Again I got this one Anet) but I’m telling you now, your pretty much as wrong as you could possibly be.

I will say though, I admire both servers efforts in not letting us hit the 695 ppt mark :P

This has to be one of my least fav match ups. Too much PvDooring from all directions. There’s that small window of epic fights late at night(west coast) when SoS is starting to wake up and slowly but surely our people stop caring because they need to sleep and everything starts turning blue. I suspect it’s the same with Ebay since their stuff starts flipping even before ours.

Nah, I don’t think people are missing the point. Fact is, both Ehmry and BP prefer to sleep then play Guild Wars 2 at the time when SoS is awake. It really does not matter how many people SoS brings at 4 AM. When there are only 15-20 people online on all maps for the opposition, you are going to rampage through gates and there really is no stopping you. At best, every early morning is an extended delaying action.

tbh, this situation is evidence of a design oversight more then anything else. There are European Servers, and North American Servers. But there are no Asia servers for Korean, Chinese, Australian, Japanese etc players. Which means these people have to gravitate towards a specific European or North American server. In the case of the North American servers though, Asiatic prime time lands smack in the middle of our “OMG I NEED SLEEP” time, and their early AM “dedicated” time lands in our “Gotta work/learn” time. By the time we can get to our keyboards, everything has been flipped and Asia has gone to sleep.

BP chest thumping more then Ebay? That’s really saying something. You seem to know a lot about our oceanic timezone, so as a regular commander for SoS and someone who plays oceanic times, I’d like to rectify some common misconceptions people from your server seem to have against SoS.

Let’s start with this queue you speak of. What the kitten is a queue? (Btw I actually said kitten Anet so you don’t have to censor this one Lol) As Asuna pointed out, we havn’t had a queue since the SoS/CD/SBI matchup. Running with AoA, we’ve been able to float with our 20/25 man zergs easily all night, every night. I would go so far as to say our Oceanic crew is as large as our NA crew, the only difference is the number of opponents we face.

As for these claims of wiping these “queued map zergs” with only 20 BP. I don’t ever get a repair bill running in oceanic times, and have to make multiple trips to the merchant, because some people like to collect their merchants … LEMON. Anyways when I command SoS oceanics, all I do is say stack, and they do the rest for me, training achieves great things Of course that’s not to say our numbers don’t help. Really just pic/videos or it didn’t happen.

I’d also like to point out how self centered you guys sound when you complain about night capping. You realise you “night cap” us too, evident by your picture you posted of your BP Borderlands 2.0, yet I don’t hear any SoS complaints on this forum.

So really I’m sorry, but you have been grossly misinformed on really every piece of information you have posted on these forums about our oceanics. Now I don’t know where you got this information, personally to me it sounds like you pulled this information out of your kitten (Again I got this one Anet) but I’m telling you now, your pretty much as wrong as you could possibly be.

I will say though, I admire both servers efforts in not letting us hit the 695 ppt mark :P

I’m really not though. You guys DO PvDoor from the hours of 4 AM US East Coast to around 11 AM US East Coast. We can usually keep up the fight until 4 AM because the US West Coast is still awake. But after 4, everything falls to pieces. By 9 AM its 11 PM in Melbourne. A few of us are waking up, but only to go to work/school. By Noon you guys are finally going to bed, and we are starting to trickle in. Of course, as I pointed out, Ehmry is awake too by this point and SoS’s North American is too, so it becomes a three way fight, not the one sided karma train of earlier.

And you do run a horde of uplevels, don’t lie :P I think what’s annoying you the most is probably the fact that we aren’t even really playing against you, but rather, against Ehmry Bay (and they are the same, I’m sure). Don’t really see the point in trying either, because to play against SoS is to have no life, or sleep. So enjoy that free WXP guys. Its not your fault you have nobody to play with during your prime time. Blame Anet for not creating servers for Asia.

We’re not annoyed that you’re bending over and taking it without a fight, we’re annoyed that you’re saying all this and it hasn’t really happened. Half of what people have said about SoS is completely untrue. Or bordering on it, lol. Yeah, we run uplevels sometimes, why? Because the meager force EB/BP has isn’t really enough to make us grab our mains and slam you guys into the ground. It’s already dead as it is, to run a full-fledged zerg is overkill. I’ve yet to see us, as you say, “get owned” and see you “rake in the badges”.

And a lot of us prefer to run 1 or 2 man groups, guys.

Maybe in your timezone.

I don’t have a set timezone. I’m currently in South America right now, so I play any and all hours of the day. Tons of us run solo, and I know a few of your players can confirm it, whether they check this forum to do so, is something else. BP has also had a few 2v2/3v3 bouts versus us. Lol.

I’m confused, your literally contradicting yourself here. Let me spell out for you, what it looks like from my side. From your previous posts on the forums you mentioned you got 20 bags on 1 arrow cart, and on another occasion you mention being able to wipe a “queued map zerg” with only 20 bp. Then you go and say “to play against SoS is to have no life, or sleep”. Please explain.

Now you may have quoted my post, but you took no note and replied to nothing I mentioned. But not just that you’ve gone off on a tangent, completely missed the point of my post, and spurted off some nonsense about “night capping” yet again. If you actually bothered to take the time to read something you might be able to form a proper argument. So I’m gonna just quote the important parts of my previous post.

I would go so far as to say our Oceanic crew is as large as our NA crew, the only difference is the number of opponents we face.

Of course that’s not to say our numbers don’t help.

I’d also like to point out how self centered you guys sound when you complain about night capping. You realise you “night cap” us too, evident by your picture you posted of your BP Borderlands 2.0, yet I don’t hear any SoS complaints on this forum.

I think I’m done with this match for the week (personal stuff). You just need a few tweaks and I think you can be a real threat to YB and CD.

We beat YB already. We WP’d their hills like 4 days in a row.

Pointing out that SoS is winning because they PvDoor when BP and EB are sleeping isn’t “chest thumping”, its just pointing out a fact about the score. It doesn’t even really seem to read as a complaint so much as a statement of fact, one that we have to accept and one that must be kind of boring for your oceanic guilds (unless they enjoy the lack of real opposition).

We don’t really night-cap considering the fact that the servers are supposed to be North American. Yea I get that your night is our day, but that goes back to the point that is is just an unfortunate system. What would make it more interesting is if the oceanic players didn’t congregate to a few servers, but spread themselves more evenly so as to have some competition on the battlefield at all times of day. Who knows what you all enjoy, but I can’t think its fun going into empty maps all the time.

And yes, the score and night capping PvDoor correlation is quite evident in when you all score your points. Again, its just a fact not a complaint. I’ve actually enjoyed playing WvW this week.

I don’t remember ever mentioning that you complaining about “night capping” was what I was referring to when I said “chest thumping”. What I was referring to was this …

It soon became apparent we could wipe your qued maps with just 20 people, and that’s pretty much what we started doing.

and …

I usually use the nightly zergballs as target practice for new and inventive arrow cart placements. Like ontop of the Lighthouse in Lowlands Keep … And let the results show! 20 lootbags later, the experiment was deemed a success.

And then come morning, we clean up the mess left behind and get back to what is truly important. Making SoS shell out money to reupgrade their keeps

and …

SoS borderlands is looking a little Green. Should probably get that checked out. Could be serious.

Now about our oceanics, you guys seem to have this illusion that we are some massive force, equivalent to 4 queued maps or something (I can exaggerate too) but in reality theres no more then 100 of us, if even that, spread out across all 4 maps. Now you may have a point in saying it’d be good if we spread out, but the whole point of being on one server was so that we had other people who played in the same timezone as us. Well that’s how was for me when I picked SoS at headstart. But I admire your ability to actually come up with something of worth rather than that other guy :/

Anyways this matchups almost over, and both servers have given us some good fights. Best of luck for the rest of the matchup, may the fights continue until reset

I have spent a sleepless night to see what SoS is like when they are Zergballing and what I saw was hardly impressive. If you guys were not awake when everyone else is asleep, you would be on Par with Henge of Denravi. Maybe Henge is a underestimate. Perhaps Darkhaven? I can say this with all seriousness. Coming up the ranks, we’ve had the privlidge of fighting numerous servers. SoS is a tier 6, maybe bottom ranking tier 5 server ,skill wise and number wise. The only thing is their numbers hit when North America is asleep.

And so, thanks to Glicko, you will be able to suck points off better servers (like Ehmry Bay) because you can night cap all their keeps and hold them for a couple hours until they wake up and monkey stomp you. But the Glicko still awards you those ranking points. Until you run into Dragonbrand anyway, and get curb stomped back down into Tier 3 or 4 to repeat the process. Beware though, thanks to Glicko, odds are good you are going to hit Darkhaven and SBI at the same time.

After that the glicko works in reverse. Note how BP has gained nearly 40 points off of you. All your points have been vampired from Ehmry this match. Against Darkhaven and SBI, all they have to do is maintain a pulse and you will lose points. However I know both are reasonably competent, so they will fight so long as they don’t get demoralized. As such, you are going to lose a ton of ranking points will be straight down to tier 5, to spend the next 4 weeks crawling back up. Call me the prophet.

I thought it’s well known that SoS has a weak/average NA presence. Why is it being discuss now?
