I have no idea why the forums decided to butcher my post. I can’t seem to fix it either. Curses, there goes my dramatic effect.

The forum does not like your dissertation-style post.

pot.6805:

Wanted to give a huge congrats to TC for winning last week! And shout out to Usagi, I saw your post man thanks.

Omg, I totally forgot! I got a shoutout from Pot! Don’t let those SOR bullies get to you! Comrades, rise up in arms to protect the honour and virtues of Pot!

Score update…

So it begins…

We pulled a monumental effort this morning, as a server, and no amount of this or that can discredit our win. It feels disingenuous to try and pin it on something else.

Usagi.4835:

Your silly theorycrafting won’t change that and, frankly, it’s a little classless and disrespectful to the people who stayed up to push.

Then you both understand what it’s like, every single victory DB has had since Tier 5 has been discredited as either “Asians” or, now, “Bandwagoners”.

Congratulations to TC on the win,
I remember how good it feels to overcome a 10k point deficit in the last 48~ hours.
But you’ll find it’s a victory you’ll largely only share within your server, as everyone else is going to theorycraft away and pin it on other things until they convince themselves that your victory had nothing to do with your effort.

I’m going to be honest here; I have no problem with the original DB crew But some of you who’ve just transferred onto DB run your mouth like nobody’s business

Don’t traipse into this thread, chest-thumping and acting like you’ve been on DB since launch or have worked as hard as the native DBers have. Everything was down to them, not you.

Earn your stripes and then we’ll talk. I see you promptly shut up when we turned your victory on its head. Bite me.

You say “you” a lot in reference to people who’ve transferred in while responding to me, so I should clarify:
I have been on DB since launch

Workin’ in WvW right alongside all the other native DBers who kept fighting after the first round of bandwagon guilds peaced out on us.

My stripes were earned while Kaineng was still a joke in tier 8.

Sorry, this is like the second time I’ve done this; not YOU lol.

Someone’s obviously angry that their sense of entitlement to a free bandwagon win has been disrupted twice now by TC and FA.

10/10 would wat again

I never said TC didn’t deserve this week’s win. I never said that DB “should have” won or “deserved” to win. All I did was nominally criticize one aspect of TC’s game. If you can’t take that, it’s not my problem

You did a bit more than “nominally criticise”. You forgot the part where you said that TC wouldn’t have won without FA’s help. Nobody likes a smart-aleck!

Right, so I’m a “smart alec” for doubting it, but it’s perfectly okay for TC to say they would have “still won” without FA’s help.

Got it.

Because it’s true. All FA did was turn up to the party uninvited and cause some trouble by camping your spawn in EB and then taking Jerrifer’s. You know, the whole WvW meta doesn’t revolve around LLK and EB. Or were you not paying attention to TC flipping your borderland red? Get over yourself.

Good luck!

That pic lol:

TC, DB, FA?

I haven’t decided who’s who, tbh… I wanted us to have the coolest matchup thread so I was going to stars in the title but then they turned into ?’s, so I had to make do with a .gif. It was going to be a Harry Potter .gif but this one was better.

I’m not going to post this week on the forums as I’m sick of the vulgar private messages I’ve been getting…. Seriously kitten you to those people. I’ll miss ya Jayne, Ev, Uri, Ronin also…. Hit me up in game if you wanna chat.

P.S. Asura score update this weekend..

Vulgar messages??? Really? Just report them and stay and play!!

I did just kind of ruins the fun of interacting with servers… I’ll be back I promise

I’m on my best(ish) behaviour this week since I stole the thread-starter baton from Evalana. I’ll be good and save some icecream for you!

I’m proud of what TC did over the last 24hrs. Your silly theorycrafting won’t change that and, frankly, it’s a little classless and disrespectful to the people who stayed up to push.

Arkanfel.8403:

For the record, TC, no, you wouldn’t have “won anyway” without FA’s help. It didn’t escape our notice last night that FA’s zerg was assaulting Lowlands keep in tandem with yours and that they were happily ignoring their home BL despite it turning more and more red by the minute. They even trebbed down our inner walls for you.

That said, I don’t mind the double team so much. ANet made WvW matchups three-sided for a reason, and right now DB is under the gun, just like we should be. We’ll either rise to the challenge or die off.

Lol, TC’s win this week didn’t hinge on our taking your Lowlands Keep. We won without FA’s help because we were actively pushing on every other map. They also trebbed down the inner walls after we broke down both inner and outer gates by ourselves.

Don’t make silly comments.

Whilst I don’t think people from TC should be getting ahead of themselves, you can’t argue they’re not justified in bragging just a little.

Remember those posters from [RE] chest thumping and telling us to enjoy another loss in Tier 2, where are they now? Awfully quiet.

Prior to that, we had Mayoken challenging us to bring DB below +200ppts (though I’m sure that post was in jest). And I believe it was you or someone else who said that TC/FA shouldn’t have to wait for [CO]/Mayoken to challenge us to bring our best; that’s a little condescending if you ask me. I let it slide before, but TC/FA have been in Tier 2 far longer than DB has. You’re getting ahead of yourself if you think either of our servers needs a kick up our butts.

Evalana.5480:

Durnit – why do I keep missing all these super secret double team strategy meetings?!?!

And I told you already, 64 Teddy Bear Lane!

Evalana.5480:

Yeah – I honestly didn’t see this thread when I put mine up… Where were you hiding it??

I wanted to put stars in the title so it’d stand out and T2 would have the coolest thread, but ANet doesn’t like stars or symbols.

We can always go with yours if you’d like?

Okay, you guys know the drill. New week, keep it clean and be nice to eachother! The most up-to-date scores will be posted here.

Like Evalana mentioned last week, if you feel like typing an angry dissertation, go eat some icecream instead. No more temper tantrums.

Good luck!

A moderately wise moderator once said:

“By the way, did you know the WvW sub forum is also ruled by a Code of Conduct? Have a look at this page before posting in other threads.”

Evalana.5480:

Woww – quite the push! I so called it =P

Called it so hard! Now it’s your turn to knock them off their not-so-high horses.

Arkanfel.8403:

What I’m saying is that TC makes solid strategic choices. If we make them choose between two keeps, they usually pick the right one. If we switch maps, they usually have scouts to see us and respond quickly. That kind of thing. I’m not badmouthing their commanders in the least: if you ask me, making those choices correctly is way more important than winning (most) open-field fights.

But when it comes to actual fights, I just don’t feel threatened by TC’s zerg when I’m commanding. The only time I really did was when Kaineng was in freefall and we were outmanned during daytime NA. People can rage and gnash their teeth and make silly assumptions/examples/comparisons all they want, but that’s the truth.

So if you’re TC and you’re reading this, your reaction will probably fall into one of two categories. The first we’ve already seen: “This guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about, and I choose to take his commentary as a slight against my server”

OR

“This guy has commanded against us a lot and has a perspective on the battles that we lack.”

I ask that you consider your reaction carefully before expressing it.

Okay then, my mistake, thanks for clarifying what you meant by ‘tactics’ and ‘strategic play’.

Arkanfel.8403:

I didn’t criticize TC’s strategic play. In fact, I think that’s their strong suit—where I think they’re a bit weaker is tactics.

So if tactics = portal bombs and strategic play = knowing when to use portal bombs, for instance, how could we be lacking in either of those fields? You can’t have one without the other.

Urrid.4593:

fragmented.9854:

He’s talking about yesterday when it was a collection of TC militia trying to push in against a defended keep against an equal sized agg lead zerg. In his biased opinion the militia should have wiped them more often than not, especially since offense is easier than defense in this game.

So Militia can’t get a guild group out of a fortified keep and that makes for a middling tactical performance? Uh, okay?

Nope, I was there; lots of skill lag which hampered both sides but the reason they wiped us was because of better group composition on their part. Hammer squads hurt.

This could be the start of something new,
It feels so right to be here with you (FA),
And now, looking in your eyes,
I feel in my heart the start of something new.

What Choo talkin’ bout, Willis?

I’d ignore him.

pot.6805:

Where was this spirit when JQ was adding massive amounts of guilds? You continued to recruit and recruit and recruit and you were dominating t1 by 60-70k every week.

So if not a crushing win, was it at least “dominating” ?

Don’t be mean to Pot, we’re watching you.

Score update! Great work, TC!

Stars.8576:

Ok. Hope you have fun losing another week in Tier 2

Guild leader/officer = forum troll?

Mayoken is the guild leader of [CO]. Also…

Dear FA,

Sorry but we need to borrow your stuff to get ahead of DB, we’ll give it back later!

Eternally Yours,

TC

Jayne.9251:

DeWolfe.2174:

The only thing I know for certain is, can we steal Jayne??? How about time sharing? We need more fun in T1!

Sorry my heart belongs to TC

But I can come into the T1 thread and stir up some nonsense .. sure

Back off, bub, she’s ours.

Calvin.5380:

You are my sunshine

You make me happy

Elano.2014:

Mif.3471:

You know very well that I left FA because I didn’t get along with the community.

But hey, spin your kitten anyway you need.

So why can’t other guilds come to DB if they didn’t get along with their original servers’ community?

Because Mif isn’t a guild, but it is rumoured that he has cake. Mif cake.

Gellor.6497:

Cool thanks for the clear up, I might have misunderstood who you were referring too.

Nope, it’s totally fine. In hindsight, I can see why you’d think I’d made that mistake lol. All good.

TC becoming yaksbend of T2 with the night crew QQing.

I honestly don’t care. I’m happy with where TC is currently, but I don’t understand your reasoning for moving to a server that already has the most consistent coverage in Tier 2 (so you’re not making DB “more competitive”). I don’t know much about FA’s presence during the various timeslots, but surely it’d make more sense to move to FA or even a server in Tier 3 or Tier 4.

It seems JQ is in somewhat dire straits atm, so you’re basically unbalancing both tiers.

Like Eva, I’m going to insert a disclaimer so that everyone knows that my views do not reflect those of my server or my guild etc.

Noobles is in EA and has been on DB, not a transfer

I know, I meant in general. Probably my fault for not making that clear, it wasn’t directed at Noobles.

all aboard the bandwagon, choo choo.

Don’t hate. Hopefully they’re an NA prime guild. DB could use more help during that timeframe. More fun fights for everyone.

Welcome to T2!

Nope, they’re SEA, which apparently DB don’t have enough of lol.

Stop being bitter about everything. There’s nothing wrong in trying to be even “more” competitive.

DB is already competitive in Tier 2, as it stands; if you wanted to round off their coverage, you would recruit NA guilds, not more SEA guilds, but whatever floats your boat.

Says the bandwagon guild that has barely been on DB for, what, two or three weeks?The fact of the matter is that it’s NNK/TFV and all the other SEA guilds that are doing the bulk of the work and who have been doing so for the last few months.

Nonetheless, I see RE contributes in its own special way by chest-thumping on the forums.

It’s official, I just bought my first trap but I’m so reluctant to use it frivolously.

I heard DB loves getting trapped.

Did they ‘fix’ arrowcarts?

I’m hoping there wasn’t a euphemism in there… lol. Or by trapped, did you mean ‘trapped’ in a tower with six superior arrow carts?

Hickeroar.9734:

Usagi.4835:

It’s official, I just bought my first trap but I’m so reluctant to use it frivolously.

Hopefully a common sentiment. The supply trap is a meta-breaker. Absolute idiocy.

Stealth trap is great, imho. These will be great to plant at the doors to our keeps to combat the thieves contesting.

I haven’t been able to see it in action yet, sadly. It’d be great if you could get a stealth trap off and bait a zerg into veiling through it.

Entropy.4732:

By the way, did any players actually buy that weird little guild flag sticking out of your rear they advertised last patch? Haven’t seen a single person rocking those.

Nope, but I did get the quiver instead. The fact that they featured the guild banners as a key feature on the update page is indicative of how little there is in the way of actual content for WvW.

You don’t even need three monitors to use arrow carts like that. Educate yourself lol.

^ good use of exploit….

Seems you didnt get the TM registered fast enough …i have not seen any server not doing this .

It does need to be closed though agree for everyone wether achieved by hak or exploit , and probably a few bannings .

Wow.. That’s just dirty. No one in my guild will do that because most of us believe it is an exploit.. Haven’t seen FA doing it either just seems to be TC that thinks it’s cool.

OH please dont be so disingenous perfect fire circles outside a door wall carts next to wall …was just normal gameplay suppose .

As said dont agree with it and should be banned Whatever server .And Ive seen it from everyone inclusive ..theres no whiter than white.Hope reports submitted acted on do same please forums will not settle anything or circular accusations.

Well, I think pointing it out to TC in the forums makes them aware of what is being done. Hopefully, they recognize that using this method to take keeps reflects badly on them “tarnishing” their reputation.

There is nothing being done and DB of all servers has no right to try to take the high ground on this issue. Was fun CO/RE though maybe you’ll fight outside of one of your keeps next time.

I’m not DB, I am Lani. Nice to meet you. ;D. Something was done, that makes TC look even worse in my eyes than before. Sigh.. Poor TC ..

Thankfully, I don’t care what you think and I’m sure many others don’t either. It’s obvious how eager you are to jump onto the bandwagon of “TC hacks/TC exploits”. If you weren’t involved in the situation, don’t start stirring drama.

FXLEACH.9436:

Is it a bad joke when people complain about things getting capped whilst people sleep, do they seriously not know this is an international game?

Lol everyone should QQ more about it then. Considering that a lot of us have to put up with the fact that DB’s SEA force will flip everything while we’re sleeping, I don’t even get why some people are complaining.

we were pretty determined to keep that dolyak living.

I want to know the rest of the story; did it live?

Replace traps with ascended gear please!

Where’s the sonar beards?!

So I googled sonar beards to try and find a picture and the first result was a thread on the TC forums entitled ‘Sonar Beards’… I swear the sonar beards belong to you guys!

Actually, hijacking this thread to say: “I don’t want traps. Just give me an vendor where I can trade badges for ascended items.”

But seriously, stop wasting time on traps and give us what we’ve been waiting 6 months for.

Open in JADE QUARRY.

WvW is going to be more fun; traps incoming!
