Really I think if people do want proper games they should come to bronze tier servers.
Our populations can be pretty low at some points but in the tourney there was a bunch of matchups that didn’t know who would win.

I think there was one with Ferguson’s, Darkhaven and Anvil Rock where there was a scoredifference between the servers of about 2000 all the way up to the last day.

I’ve actually been wondering if the fights in Bronze aren’t better than Silver. Silver tends to be uneven – either you’re dominating or being dominated. Even if less population overall, Bronze may be more equal.

Except that will happen anywhere. Just look at what GOM/SF did. They basically dominated all other bronze servers. Any match that didn’t include them were at least kinda equal though.

Bronze just beat the rush and start heading to Silver…Not trying to troll, just stating the games population has shifted considerably and people have for the last year probably moved up in tiers far more than down due to the fact that there just aren’t enough people to go-around for 24 servers.

I’d say we have 1 server that should be in Silver but got screwed by the Randomization component of the match up, and 2-3 servers that could move up in the near future and compete.

Come to Silver! Silver already has a lot of dead time and I can only imagine Bronze is worse.

It is fun to make up stereotypes…Just like how bronze is full of bad players with no one else to fight….I know there are some PVdoor karma train servers, not denying that…But some of the most karma training I have ever done occurred on Bronze servers. (no resistance to stop the train)

From what I hear there’s plenty of dead time on HoD now.

HoD like most Silver servers has dead times. FA has a stable population and has gotten several guilds (including some from HoD). NA is also on summer break which means servers with heavy young populations have strong NA off hour support.

Not sure where HoD will settle but right now it looks like a T3 server with FA back to its usual form of a T2 or T2.5 server. I think a lot of FA are enjoying “punishing” HoD for months of the horde beatings they endured. I know we are all looking forward to more diverse matches… a big chunk of HoD now heads to EotM it seems.

Less stereotype, more generally poking fun at the tendency for people to zerg up in lieu of anything else. Not an absolute, and not limited to any particular server or group.

Population imbalance between competing servers tends to be boring on both sides – being rolled 5:1 gets old after a while, and rolling with a group while only finding the occasional individual player to fight who evaporates is boring too. /slightlyfacetiousrant

I think you need to change it to say that some Gold League members should move to Bronze.

I’ve been in each league and I think Silver is the best place to be for a mix of everything.

Gold is all too much zerging, Bronze has some zergs during peak times, small groups other times, but then dies later on, Silver has zergs, small groups most of the times, and less dead times.

This is very true, and somewhat unfortunate if you are on a lower-tier server and looking for balanced fights.

FA is like the dude that shows up to the party with a full keg and a bag of Doritos, just as everyone else is leaving.

No one is going to transfer down and have only 1-2 hours of fights during a 24 hour period.

I fall asleep against T2 servers. No way am I going lower than that….

Oceanic time zone is dead even in T1, so there’s not much chance that people who play in that time zone will move below gold servers.

Stereotypes are usually not true though, so it’s unrelated to this issue.

ive traveled the ladder, up and down, and the grass was never greener on any server that I stopped. the players were always friendly and welcoming on each server, and every servers skill level is about the same, but I always moved on due to lack of fights during my game time slot. I ended up on the top tier because of the continuous number of people playing wvw. there is always a large group on the move, always a bunch of hardy corner defenders to work with, and always a few roamers to fight it out against. it was worth the gems to discover where I would be happy even if I did have to leave a lot of friends behind. whether or not you choose to move from bronze to silver wont matter eventually, anet will fold you together to save money by closing down low pop servers. that is the sad fact of all server divided mmos

lol nice

Stereotypes are often true, but really just reflect commonly held perceptions about things which are then applied to specific cases.

I still find lots of fights on bronze.

“Lots of fights” would mean 1 every 2 hours I assume.

One thing to remember is that the majority of players – play in the evening- But! Evenings means a lot of different things. Just take US V.s EU "main time— well US covers some 7? hours worth of timezones. – EU servers includes Siberia- that’s 12 hours worth of timezones..
Naturally you have most around Central European time, but there are a broader range.
So. you can actually browse around a bit for time frame/servers that fit you play style(large serg/small groups) and time frame. Players do have a tendency to migrate towards servers with similar times players.

^ this. I can basically count the OCX guilds across T1 + T2 on my fingers and toes, probably just fingers.

Even EOTM is dead during OCX, some sides can’t even muster up a karma train to get going.
