wow Night ….

- SOR slowly but steadily build up a 25k lead over the weekend.
- BG pushed late PST thru SEA on Monday and cut the lead to 16k
- SOR pushed EU and EST and recovered what was lost by BG’s push
- BG basically folded at this point

When WvW went down SOR had increased it’s lead to ~30k and we were entering our primetime, we were ticking 460. The lead is 5-10k less now due to the outage.

Like i said you can’t honestly tell me BG losing 8hrs in W3 to close the gap didnt harm us. I really dont see why you’re even trying to argue the fact SoR wasn’t at a advantage because of the patch screwup and W3 downtime.

BG gained more of an advantage having the outage rather than not having it. As Brutus said, that lead should be much greater right now.

Tell that to the full map of SoR floaters thats been on this week. You´ve gained alot of players over the last period. Aint complaining, just wish they´d split up instead of full map zerg karma training.

Atleast we figured out how to stop it now. We let you have all, then there´s nothing for you to karma train. I hope you enjoy the stacking

wow,,,you only had paper when it went down while SOR lost T3 keeps.

The outage was a gift to BG, I expected you to come out with a strong push last night but I suspect someone figured 30k was too much\not worth the overtime required to overcome.

Personally, I think the downtime is irrelevant. Score-wise, SoR was ahead when WvW went down and obviously still ahead when it came back up. Did it give us less time to “catch up”? Maybe, but that’s because no one could get in there. Who cares?

I’m still going to be out there tonight, pushing just as hard as always and having a great time doing so. See you all out on the field!

Last night, SoR had our garri. What do BG commanders do? Take those following them and go on TC bl to cap towers, and later take their garrison. All while BG map was left without any organised force. If you want someone to blame then blame BG and their commanders for allowing enemy to WP our keeps and garri. By now it’s pretty clear the server as a whole has given up on winning the matchup.

EU is not SoRs strongest zone by far its only IRON and the rallians

Tell that to the full map of SoR floaters thats been on this week. You´ve gained alot of players over the last period. Aint complaining, just wish they´d split up instead of full map zerg karma training.

Atleast we figured out how to stop it now. We let you have all, then there´s nothing for you to karma train. I hope you enjoy the stacking

considering that we went out looking for fights, not karma training, with out 30ish people we had online, everything in your post is null and void. We asked people to come and have some fun fights, but after roflstomping all over Biebertrix and COIN, he cried for help and in came both RK and HB to run with him and megablob everything.
Not fun to play with 2 fps due to your huge numbers. But we did however get some fighting and got quite a lot of bags too so it wasn’t all bad. But if you continue this we will, however, be forced to respond in kind, tag up and pull a map blob to counter your map blob come next week. If, that is, what you want. Accept reality, we all run with about equal numbers in wvw, anything else is just propaganda from one side or another. You rolling in with a map blob to “counter” us is really just praise and we thank you for it.

I wasnt reffering to your size but the mapblop of different guilds that you´ve had on since reset in EU prime. I´ve seen several guilds that had 10-15 in that, that could have easely run on their own.

Wow SOR bay did i just witness all of BG that could fit on the map outside the south gate a bit overkill is it not? You can keep your loot bags that was a total lagfest and contributed very little in the end other than what i perceived as a defiant protest at our gate whilst everything around you was abandoned.

Personally i would have put those numbers to better use rather than all in the one place but i suppose everyone has their own agenda.

GW2 WvW in EU is a disaster because EU cannot play 24hr WvW coverage that NA servers can and further more are more stable, and this is the model Anet want’s to create. Personally i find playing here outside of NA prime time more of a challenge and despite what you call EU trash talk Servers belong to Anet and everyone is free to be a part of whatever server they want NA/EU doesn’t matter all it relates to is where the server is based for latency purposes.

Last night was a lot of fun on BG BL… Thanks to all the SOR who kept things lively and fun in TS, even for those of us just standing in hills staring at the snow.

It certainly was a rough night for BG. I respect those BG who stayed in BG BL and kept fighting us. [EE] guild in particular stuck it out and continued hitting whatever they could when there were hardly any other BG on map. [ND], [PLX], and [OnS] were also in map with sizeable forces later on, after we completed garri WP, but at that point it was too late and there wasn’t much they could do against those upgraded keeps. Still, it was obvious BG either just gave up entirely, or they are sorely missing [MERC]…. Probably a combination of both.

Which leads to something I hope SOR leadership bears in mind: If BG is truly missing [MERC], then we should be very mindful of how much stronger JQ is going to be the next time we face them. Maybe the difference one (or a few) new guilds makes won’t be substantial, but [MERC] not being there (in full force) certainly looked like it has hurt BG in a big way. I’m really looking forward to seeing how much stronger JQ is now.

Anyway, thanks again to the SOR who kept things fun and to the BG who kept fighting even though it wasn’t your night. I felt particularly bad killing the Necro [DEAD] at orchard because, even though he had to run from an earlier ruin fight against me, he still stood and fought me that second time (even when it became obvious he was going to die). I would have /saluted you, but your attack surprised me so much that I was too busy spinning the camera around looking for your friends.

Last night, SoR had our garri. What do BG commanders do? Take those following them and go on TC bl to cap towers, and later take their garrison. All while BG map was left without any organised force. If you want someone to blame then blame BG and their commanders for allowing enemy to WP our keeps and garri. By now it’s pretty clear the server as a whole has given up on winning the matchup.

<shrug> It’s not a case of “allowing” SoR do anything. Last night in SEA/Oceanic, SoR were focused almost exclusively on BG. They had superior overall numbers, superior guild numbers, and upgraded stuff. For whatever reason, SoR had the coverage to do pretty much what they wanted.

In the command channel you could hear constant calls from BG’s Commanders of 50+ SoR attacking simultaneously across multiple BLs, and asking for help because they were outgunned. None of this is a complaint, while there were quite a few inevitable wipes we had some excellent fights.

Regardless, there are times when you want to try to draw a side way from one area to another and, frankly, times when you can’t win in a given situation and decide to give your followers a break by going elsewhere.

From my perspective the people you want to “blame” are the ones (all servers) who fairweather. If BG is dominating then I have nothing but respect for the commanders and players who continue to fight when when their server is losing.

All these EU players coming across to talk trash whilst avoiding prime time in their own servers….

all it relates to is where the server is based for latency purposes.

Actually I believe both the NA and EU servers are located in Austin, TX.

SoR, do you guys need more oceanics? You guys WP’d all our keeps, including garri.

You stopped showing up. Not our problem. You had no problem earlier in the week.

we did as usual, but couldn’t battle your all call

Lol sorry to break it to you.. but you guys are the only 1s who have something called an all call.

Bullkitten. When I served time (yes I’m comparing it to prison) in TSYM they did regular all-calls that were punishable by probation/Gkick for not showing up. I’m sure they didn’t invent the “all-call” either.

considering i’ve been in Tsym since launch, yes there were guild allcalls in the sense that hey guys lets rally up and WvW if you are on"

it was hardly prison by ANY stretch of the imagination, it’s always been one of the most friendly team oriented guilds out there..

and 1 guild asking its members to WvW sometimes is nothing compared to a server wide push ..

use some common sense

Except it wasn’t asking, and it wasn’t sometimes. It was every night I logged on during that week, and like I said it was punishable via probation and kicking. I was new to the guild and had showed up every night except 1, but was still placed on “rep probation.”

I’m not saying everyone in that guild is some awful person, but the guild was not fun and I made the best decision by leaving and going to JQ.

This is actually common for new members in extremely focused (usually self described ‘hardcore’) guilds regardless of content. I’ve been in raiding guilds that would drop a new member if they missed a raiding night. It is a lot like real life, if you put in the time and do the work as a new member then after a while you can slack off as much as you want because people will have already formed an impression of you as a hard, diligent, present participant/worker/whatever.

<shrug> It’s not a case of “allowing” SoR do anything. Last night in SEA/Oceanic, SoR were focused almost exclusively on BG.

No we didn’t, I was on TCBL with a significant group all oceanic evening.

You’ve totally missed the point.

In maps where there was a BG presence, SoR clearly focused BG.

The fact that you also had a “significant group” in TCBL reflects your coverage advantage but is irrelevant to the context of the post I referenced and my response.

I wish IRON would stop wiping COIN, I prefer to have more than 1 fps whilst playing.

inb4 COIN call up HB and RK to respond to this post

The only thing COIN can do to stop IRON wiping them is to log out of WvW.

Last night was a lot of fun on BG BL… Thanks to all the SOR who kept things lively and fun in TS, even for those of us just standing in hills staring at the snow.

It certainly was a rough night for BG. I respect those BG who stayed in BG BL and kept fighting us. [EE] guild in particular stuck it out and continued hitting whatever they could when there were hardly any other BG on map. [ND], [PLX], and [OnS] were also in map with sizeable forces later on, after we completed garri WP, but at that point it was too late and there wasn’t much they could do against those upgraded keeps. Still, it was obvious BG either just gave up entirely, or they are sorely missing [MERC]…. Probably a combination of both.

Which leads to something I hope SOR leadership bears in mind: If BG is truly missing [MERC], then we should be very mindful of how much stronger JQ is going to be the next time we face them. Maybe the difference one (or a few) new guilds makes won’t be substantial, but [MERC] not being there (in full force) certainly looked like it has hurt BG in a big way. I’m really looking forward to seeing how much stronger JQ is now.

Anyway, thanks again to the SOR who kept things fun and to the BG who kept fighting even though it wasn’t your night. I felt particularly bad killing the Necro [DEAD] at orchard because, even though he had to run from an earlier ruin fight against me, he still stood and fought me that second time (even when it became obvious he was going to die). I would have /saluted you, but your attack surprised me so much that I was too busy spinning the camera around looking for your friends.

I can only talk for EU and EST, but in these timezones we´ve seen more than a doubled amount of SoR forces compared to what we are used to see. Even though BG have had more people out aswell, the difference in pure numbers has just grown to big.

I’m still going to be out there tonight, pushing just as hard as always and having a great time doing so. See you all out on the field!

more of this please. : ))

Even after the whole transfer issue last week, I actually miss playing against JQ… At least we could find some decent small guild fights. This week has been nothing but running from blobs -.-

why are we never on the field at the same time. we only anti-blob! ; ))

Dolyak parade will be tomorrow at 7 PM ST!

Maybe it’s double SOR forces, but I think it’s more of a combination of things:

1) a reduction in your numbers (from MERC’s depature)

2) an uptick in SOR numbers as more casuals/fair-weathers join the “easy” fight

3) a downtick in the number of BG PUGs (and even guilded players) who are willing to stick it out, despite the odds, because it’s been a relatively “harder” fight this week and they’ve given up.

Those three things have made for a very tough fight this week for BG. I don’t count them out though, or conclude they’re imploding (like ppl like to do with JQ all the time), but I do hope SOR curb checks you a few more times before this week is up…

MERC departure didn’t have much of an effect tbh. There is still some restructuring going on there, but beyond that it will make no difference in the long run. It strengthened JQ more than it did weaken BG. I agree with the others above, but the two main ones for me are:
- Leagues are around the corner and we are trying to break from the O/T we have been doing. Ive personally played wvw around 30 hours less this week already and will probably be playing this much until leagues are implemented.
- SOR pretty much had a break last week in T2 and came back refreshed. On the other hand BG really got pushed hard by JQ and had to work alot harder than usual to beat them.

This is what happened to this match-up thread. You say BG QQs, but then there are posts all over the place that look exactly like this that simply play as troll bait for BG posters. Soooo clicheeee. I have been reading these match-up threads for too long.

Holy Magikarp, pull me from this abyss! I’m starting to see… strange… things…
