So smokers a new alliance with some known players and some unknown, have come to r4!! They have come here to take no.1 in AR!! None think they can do it!! They have fought hard and won all wars but deathstars!! THey are the underdog's of this race!! After failing there first real test they are in there second test against dracula!! Also erlig and blackwater have given them good fights!! mvp goe's to all active members!!  :hard: :hard: :hard:
                  the score so far in dracula war +21 points smokers *bravo*

You know, there are some nice people in that alliance, but why do yo guys have to smoke  *sos*

Smoking is hazardous to your health.

Just look at kroppy

We just like the name can be taken in more ways than 1! *hihi*  I am actually trying to quit smoking  *hahaha* *hahaha*

wow, you are right, more like smoking hot! Ok, then, where is the war updates (with some nice emoticons !) *WASSUP*

erlig ended +40  mvp havoc
ottoman +23  :hard:
kingsrow +7 peace treaty agreed *rose*
DRACULA +21 *Angry*
BLACKWATER -10 they can wait *pardon*
Ragnarok +24  [:-}
Argonauts starts soon *hihi*

What's a peace treaty?

i have an objection here ..there up ;D  *evil* and where are the old mvp list in the earlier battles  *evil*

Its the option of offering them peace so you dont crash them and they dont get out of your 2x and you can declare them a second war in a week :D

But that's cheating!

no it's not no war was ageed we just declared on them and they don't want to fight!! So as iris said we don't crash in on them!! There is no cheating involved in not beating the crap out of an alliance who don't want to fight back!! It's called being nice *rose*

Definetely cheating. Extreme cheating.  *hmm*

There was one alliance that did that, and they got gangbanged so bad, I think they hade 7 wars at the same time.

lol what are you on about!! For 1 war was not staged so not cheating  *pardon* 2. we have been in upto 8 wars at once in r2 and fight minium of 5 a week!! :evil4: :evil4: Getting gang banged is a dream come true to us!! 3. mr badger I am not easilly baited and if your intentions are to bait me come up with something more intellegent!! As what you say there is completely unfair on my team as we fight fair! But just to make you happy we will not become bully's!!  *freak* *freak*

he is joking, samyo, its just his sense of humor is too ancient to understand :D

lol cool sorry badger I am a bit protective of my team! *hihi* As all proud leaders should be [:-}

badger  *WASSUP* *WASSUP* we want 7 wars a week ..prolly more than that ..thats wt is all about smokers..war war and more war  *evil*

 *hahaha* Yeah that's really nice 8 wars at once.


7 wars a week, cheaters...  *Angry*

 *rose* *rose*

badger I like your signature!! So your a farmer *hihi*

u :D cant call anyone in forum cheater  *hihi* *hihi* go PM to admins or mods  *hahaha* *hahaha*

And we are  proud of our leader ...  *kissgirl*

But Badger...You are the one that is the biggest cheater!...You arent here playing!  :evil4:

He was ! I remember he had university 22 and was boxing hills to have higher population !

And I only made top 535... it was a tough era for Net Worth  :head_hurts_kr:


That is clearly an issue for admins. Talk to them about it.


Farmer since I quit IO! ... and maybe in R2 and R5

At last I found my way here, I don't have anything to say so I just wanna spam around a little bit so I get it in my "Show new replies to your post" - thingie!

I am sure you will have plenty to say in time!! Quick update on drac war +55 points  *bravo* *bravo* go smokers  *bravo* *bravo*

That is good  ...in a way, I don't like em' DRACULA, but I don't like em' smokers either. They do to many wars...  :rant:

What's the standings in the alliance race?

 :-[ Smokers no 3 ,
Dracula no 2 ,
AvengersIV no 1..
 :-[  i thought avengerIV will be no 0  *hihi*

http://img204.imageshack.us/my.php?image=01272009140517ya3.png

You are wrong we don't have enough wars we want more! :rant: :rant:

You wanna ;)

sadly or probally lucky for me I can't fight you am I even in you 10x :P

10 wars? Is that all? What is it, day 2?  *xxx*

WOW that is best cheating I ever heard!! Tell me how do you have 10 wars by day 2 when alliance must have been active 7 days to declare on them!! Is this an old school bug you used to take advantage of!! You truelly are the biggest cheat here!! *hahaha* *hahaha* *rose*

yes ..will that do  :-X

7 days can pass fast.

10 wars in day 38 is what? 3 wars a week?  *tired*

no is 5 wars from when we started warring as soon as we reached the required 5k net we started fighting *pardon* We are not all farmers so us longer to get to points required to have a war! *hihi* To be honest honest I did'nt have a real army or boxed prov when we started war!! lol I still wanta know how you fight 10 wars in first 2 day's!! But you are avoiding that! *hahaha* *hahaha*

73 wars in 4 months, is all I have managed, might have been 7-8 first week, don't remember well. Still, an alliance of your level, should at least have 15 wars first week  *rose*

I agree 15 wars would be great problem is you can only declare 1 every 32 hours!! So to get that many wars you need other alliances to declare on you!! We fight as many wars as we can!! But if no-one declares on us how can we fight 15 wars *hihi* I am really jellious so many alliances declared on you *rose* Maybe we will be that lucky one day!

You really dont wanna be that lucky, there were only 5 us and fighting 7 wars per week was not a piece of cake ! It was fun though, I hope one day you get to live it ;)

thats past man..days have passed and people started using technology and are becoming intelligent.. *tired* *tired*

Yeah, in the stone age we were all stupid and fought wars with slingshots...


 *rose*

 *freak* i dont know why im posting here,i got fever

what took you so long *pardon*

was sleeping  *freak*

k here is the calculations..its day 38..

it took evrybody atleast 7 days to get to 150 pts as no credits *pardon* 38 - 7 = 31 days.. *hihi*
then 168 hrs for active alliance = 31 - 7 = 24 days..

m leaving the breaks during new year - *hihi*

then maximum no of wars in 24 days can be = 24 * 24/26 = around 23 wars..then thrs is a gap of 8 hrs between war starting,,so it becomes even less in terms of maximum no of wars can be declared from 1 side.. *hihi*

after all this we are on our 16th war  :hmmm:

now make me understand if m wrong  *tired* *tired*

if you will finish with more than 70 then it will be good *pardon*

...the new thing is to win the ally-race with as few wars as possible. That is a challange!

it's not hard...if you go into a realm with 1 year per era...you'll see that alliances have less than the winning alliance in 4 months eras *freak*

I meant for R4 this era.

...because of the liner-effect

Liner-effect :D :D

Well, you usually have many wars because you have good competition- because your opponents also have many wars and to beat them you need to do the same  *pardon* Besides the liners always played low points and the competition was way higher so we would usually wait on them to declare on us to kick their @ss  *hihi*

when u gonna implement it  *hihi* *hihi* we will continue with classic rules  [:-}

I am doing it already! Soon we will have fewer wars then you but we will still be no 1 .  *YAHOO*

 *freak*

k dream it..may be u can have 0 wars on the last week  *hahaha*

23 wars, 4 month realm, current rules is the closest we came.


Yeah, I suppose it's different now that intellegence matters.  *kissgirl*

you just dont lose easy, do you :D

What can I say. I am a bitch.  *freak*

who cares  *hahaha* *hahaha*

I have no idea what you're talking about...  *black_eye* I only remember a big war which we won with huge numbers  *YAHOO* *YAHOO* *YAHOO*

I could kick the face off a badger  *crazy*

The concept of underage drinking does not exist in Europe. I have been drinking alcohol since age 5. Its all part of the culture, other nations just call it alcoholism :D

i drink since i was 3  *freak* i recall my grandpa smuggling beer to me for breakfast when i was living with grandparents ( we moved of when i was 3.5 y old  *freak* )  *freak*

At last, an explanation.     *drunk*

Well.. I taste alcohol then I was 9... Now I don't drink like a freak  *freak* , but sometimes I taste it again. It's okay if you don't drink too much.

But I never drink alcohol then I was 3 years old  *freak*

Then I was 3, I didn't know what alcohol means..

why dnt u spy me , i shall go in vacation  *freak* *freak*

I already spied you, but you killed my spy... he had a family you know...   *Angry*

He shjould have picked a safer occupation :D

i have border 4/5 idk..i dnt even know who is spying me. *pardon* *pardon*.everytime someone spies me , i assume its my neighbour and he has to pay for the spy cost  *hihi* *hihi*

hehehe, I was already wondering why all your neighbors are burning after I spy on you  *hahaha*

thats ur fault  *pardon* *pardon* adn they even joining enemies to attack me , they even are attackin me , but i hv not time and i cant a single army on em now.. *pardon* *pardon*

battered beaten ego's bruised *black_eye* *black_eye* And sundenly that crie again! CRY HAVOC LET SLIP THE HOUNDS OF WAR :evil4: :evil4: Smokers are back still in the race and ready to kill again :hard: [:-}

 *xxx*  *xxx* Is this some kind of encrypted message  *xxx*  *xxx*

No, samyo means that after Havoc, he was my trojan as well  *black_eye*

But enough shit-talk... I really hope you guys will stay in realm 4, and I hope Starbuck will join you guys... please give him a place on the map close to me, cause you guys are all so far away from me  *sos*

nope is our saying for lets kick some butt *hihi*

k i just came from work and these talks really exciting me to start again but i called it off and it was my decession *pardon*..and i will remember u all..will be back someday once i finish 2 of my major project works  *evil* *evil*

I will remember you as well for the short-time we played though... But you are right, real life comes first... every once in a while I am too busy at work as well... And my girl gets really angry at me when I login at my I-phone  *freak*

...And Avengers today again declared a war upon Smokers....For me it seems like we became twin alliances... We cannot live one without another. Especially me with 4 Avengers as neighbors  *hmm*... I am so used with ghibon trying to attack me in waves every day and near every day recalling his attacks, that life without it becomes boring... Not to mention his regular spies... He better ask HotZetiGer what I am doing with spies who see me without make up. Have pity of their families, man!... Two last wars with Avengers I was busier fighting Ragnarok. This time Ragnarok does'n exist anymore. May be it is time for me to have a better look at my neighbors-Avengers?  :evil4: Let see what THIS war will bring...

 *pardon* *pardon* smruti *black_eye*

O my queen of war there gonna hate you *rose*

People say that from Love to Hate and from Hate to Love there is only one step.... I am in love now with ghibon's Guards.... No, it is not that strong sentiment that I got first time meeting your army, samy, last era in r2... That was something else.... At first look at your 220 rams when everyone around had only small armies of light units, I understood that you are the Hero of my life... But I really love ghibon's guards.... They are always coming so nice and handsome, in shining armors and with sharp swords... 3 attacking waves with 1000 Guards each... I like to look at them...So brave warriors... And every time i think: today... today is the day when we meet... I cannot breath because of wonder that I feel looking at them... My heart starts to beat so fast  *heart* and my eyes are full of tears.... But... he is recalling them again back... How he can do this with me?  :head_hurts_kr: Why? Why he shows them and doesn't give me possibility to touch them? To try them? Or he is sending them when I am not online.... Why? Does he want me to die of Love to them?

samyo is the hero of ur life ??? ??? then me  *sos* *sos* i shall kill samyo and take his head off someday infront of u *hihi* *hihi*

Smruti, dear, I love you as my younger brother like only a sister can love... *kissgirl*

younger brother  *black_eye*..
walks sadly down towards woods  ???

I always love you, smruti, and for me it doesn't make any difference if you are winning or losing battles... And I am really sad that you decided to step away...

i will be back someday and will really like to play with Smokers again  :)
i luv u too  *kiss* u are the warrior queen *sos* btw ..luv YA  *bear*

Well my queen glad ghibon has your heart pounding with his shiny guards! But I don't think they'll ever match my rams. I hope ghibon shows courage and lets you meet him on battlefeild. But not sure he will [:-}

For sure, samy, his Guards cannot match your rams  *kissgirl*, but I love them too *rose*.... I really want to try them with all my skin...To see what kind of blood they have... to take a drop of it on my finger and to look at it toward the light... I am sure it have to look beautiful... I hope the only one problem with ghibon is that he is waiting to have more of them... and to send them in 4  *heart*, 5  *heart* *heart*, 6  *heart* *heart* *heart* waves...

damn.....i am a star... *ok*.....sv..wait for me with some milk and honey *ok*

I will do it, my dear!
How about Irish Coffee with Jameson Whiskey?

Someone calling for me ?  *stop*

Watch out ghib, she's a succubus.

My queen is not a sexual demon *Angry* You dare insult my queen *Angry*  *hihi*
She is a warrior queen *rose*

A Valkyrie or Amazon queen, then ?

A Valkyrie queen would be nice ... the next time Ghibon see her on the battlefield would mean that he's already dead  *hihi*

I like that it's sounds alot more fitting  *ok*

I smell so much romance in the air :D

I like this idea of a Valkyrie, Starbuck!
(http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y204/Armony/Valkyries03.jpg)

I agree... And I like very much Norse Mythology and runes:

http://chris67.levrai.com/SVTLNA.swf

well..my girl loves that too..so  if I manage to find some art that I have for her in my pc..I will choose some for you:) and send their links...

she is mad for Valkyries:)

Thank you! I am OK with pics.... and my house is full with books about Norse mythology and runes... I have something around 20 books about it, not to mention my own set of runes made by myself and painted with my own blood....

so maybe you should send me some:))))))))))))))))

I am ashamed now:))

Ok... Let me know what your girl is interested in...
You can have a look on 2 categories of posts on my blog.... they both are about such Viking-Metal staff:

real treasures..I will search it very carefully indeed..thanks for sharing it *rose*

You are welcomed

can i have some too

Can we please stop this and kill each other instead?
People on the outside will think the AvengersIV vs. smokers round 2 is rigged if we all act like we're in love.  *heart*

Hey samy! Wanna grab a bear after todays fighting?  *bear*

Are you by any chance Bulgarian !!!!

No, I am from Moldova myself, but live in Ireland for long time.

Hey, Naylord! What is wrong with you? You don't think that inviting samy for a beer will make people from outside to think that you are 2 alcoholics?
And what is wrong with being in love?
I am playing this game for fun and you seems to take it too serious.
Calm down! I understand that smokers are leading at moment and it makes you nervous, but we told everyone from beginning that smokers are going to lead this era in this realm.

I must have a way with words, every one takes everything I say so serious these days.
I think I gonna beg som admin to mute me.

Hey yeah a beer sounds great! I think all know nothing is rigged we just nice guy's! Aswell as army killers! p.s you said you where gonna leave your army home for me ;D

Ha ha ha, dont worry, buddy, its not your fault you are swedish  *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha*

Noone gets my sense of humor too, thats why I use :D all the time

I almost get you though, after playing half a lifetime with mc you start to think even Swedes are funny  *freak*

Of course you can. NP. Just press the link.

I didn't wanna leave it since you would have been killed if I did.


Indeed we are, but very misunderstood!  *black_eye*

Hey no-one gets ny humour neither! I think it's just to dry *pardon*

Were you just joking now, samy?   *hahaha* *rose*

WOW you got my humour [:-} *hihi* I am funny *bravo*

Not really, I think it was just a wild guess :D

That was dry  *hihi*

....And here we are at 21 hours of war with Avengers.... We are leading 12 points... Naylord becoming jealous of my love to ghibon's Guardians and spying after me on regular base... Had some incoming attack/attacks? but didn't look who it was... I knew it will be recalled and just wanted to leave myself guessing who it could be and day dreaming that these were that nice Guardians of ghibon... *rose* *heart* *heart* *heart* *kissgirl*

I don't have time to be jealous, I am busy trying to keep Hotzetiger and his hairy armor and shiny male thingie out of Iris bedroom.

What you want? Valentine is coming... Everyone thinks only about love... And you know, these Mongols always were as a plague... it is difficult to keep them under control...

i sense a disturbance in the force  *freak*

I always thought you where a jedi *hihi*

...2 days of war against AvengersIV. Score is so dynamic you always don't know who is leading in every moment.  *xxx*  Now it is 99 107 and Avengers are leading 8 mps, but for how long? Today I saw Ghibon lost in net points... I hope none of his lovely Guards were killed?  *hmm*

some of them was lost..but for another war "mate".... *Angry*.....wanna make a nice pic of my paladines... *pardon*

Oh NO!!! Who is that war mate who did this?  :evil3:
Of course I will be happy to see your Paladines. Are they nicer than Guardians? I cannot imagine... *rose*

Today! He kinda tryed to trap me! :D
HotZetiGer(ERLIG)  VS   ghibon(AvengersIV)   117   7798   18   255   0   0   7

How, ghibon? Do you need some lessons in ambush? I can teach you... You know. ambush is my favorite strategy.... Send some army and I will show you in practice how to do this! *rose*

 *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha*

*hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha*

And again smokers are no.1 kosac or ghibon gonna kill one you *rose* ;)

or both  *pardon* *pardon*

Why only 2 of them????  :evil4:

Cause they the only 1's in my 2x if I can get more net will kill naylrod to *hihi*
There are only 3 of us fighting so no lack of targets *hihi*

hey Sv wts that crow eating in ur signature..and someone removed my signature at least they could have warned me , if thats vulgar  ??? ???

They rem,oved your signature cause it's vulgar funny there are a few comments by forrum users who like it! Thats a bit out of order!

who ever has done it , has actually logged into my account and removed it from my profile info  *black_eye*
if someone could have asked i would have removed , and its fine for me.. :(

I am sorry for your signature... Can you add it back?

As about my crow, it is eating my enemies blood on the battlefield. Kind of "cleaning" after me  :evil4:

no,not really  *hihi*

Alliance ranking say's we are no.1 ;) Even with your new position you can't change that!! *hihi* Maybe at end of era will be low points argument and maybe we lost less wars. ect., But at end of day no.1 spot is no.1

actually i was referring about you killing me or ghibon  *freak*   [:-}

I think you are right: We have to leave only you in the samy's list, because ghibon will kill himself his army trying to ambush HotzetiGer  *hahaha* *hahaha*

Today! He kinda tryed to trap me!
HotZetiGer(ERLIG)  VS   ghibon(AvengersIV)   117   7798   18   255   0   0   7]

lolz i like to be hunted   *freak*  *heart*

No looks like you forgot you had left 800 of them at home *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha*

i now ...i forget to mobilized them

if your signature has been removed, it has been done by an admin. If you read the description of signatures allowed on forum, you would realize that yours is about 10 times bigger than allowed. People here seem to be putting some enourmous signatures as statement of some kind, samyo, gharn and ophelia's signatures are also way to huge to comply with any rules ! Before Krum used to just remove such without any warning...

why dont i have cool avengers sig  *Angry*  *sos* *sos*  :evil3:

thats why i said its fine for me..and  *black_eye*

I don't think there really statements mine is'nt I just like these signatures! As it adds to the fun. I Got mine from google pics so if I can work out how to make it small I will! *pardon* Btw have you got the link to signature guidelines? *sos*

Here you go :)

http://www4.imperiaonline.org/forums/int/index.php?topic=117.0

Dont get me wrong, I am not trying to play law enforcement here, I am just trying to explain to smruti not to be too upset because noone has probably messed with his profile :).

I know. hehehe though i'd change mine though before it got removed to *hihi* Thx for link

I will wait till it is remowed because it is the smallest version of this picture that I can use:))))

I love Luis Royo..unfortunately he doesn't like to draw so many knight pictures..he usually draws female warriors:)

well, at least that is one thing we have in common, I love Luis Royo too, this used to be desktop for quite a long time :)

(http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u295/anjuli17/desktop.jpg)

The thing about forum signatures is, that you dont have to post an entire picture, this actually not only takes half a page when you write a post, but you lose from the resolution because you cant have the picture in its entire detail. Its much better to use a part of it, something like this Luis Royo warrior ;)

(http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u295/anjuli17/074.jpg)

Very nice desktop

I know that we can post some parts of the pictures:) but pls tell me how can I put my signiture at that form:))

you can see all nothing but the darkness:(( and I always regard the difference between a warrior and a knight...(anyway I can use the signiture that you prepeared too..thanks for that:)) )

btw the art on your desktop is one of them that I like the most:)) ..I am sure that you have lots of his works but I am sure that I have some rare ones which are found in only some sites ... I will share those with  you :)

I dont understand what do you mean at that form - if you mean just placing the entire picture, then it just doesnt look nice. Signature's are generally meant to be longer than wider and your signature is mostly vertical so there is no choice but to crop it. If you just try reducing it, it will look like a lot of black with the knight in there as a spot.

Anyway, this is another one of Royo's I found, he really doesnt do much males, but this was one of my favorites too because of dragon (which you cant really see here)

(http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u295/anjuli17/306.jpg)

well:) I just meant to crop so it is meaningless if you crop any part..

this picture is really good:)) thanks I can use it:)) that sure is a knight:))

sorry dex that was 2008 in realm 2 I joined 2 months into my first era ever played in r4 and IO! So I beat you on noob stakes :P
lol did'nt show honour it was +299 :D

I should work very hard these days in R2, samy, to come near your results from 2008... Especially about honor... Too little time left  :head_hurts_kr:

Playing different realms at the same time is distracting.  *stop* Do you guys really have real life?  *hihi*

Of course I have a real life ! I play IO, my boyfriend plays IO, my friends play IO, if they dont play, then they are not my friends !!! (Some of them quit playing but I still love them :) My life is very much real since IO is quite real !

Yep could'nt of said it better myself! And hey in IO I am talking to people from all over the world from the confort of my home! All the people that play here are real people! And thx to wonders of armysave can do other stuff aswell! Playing more than 1 realm is harder yes! But when you think a attack tacks min 90mins! Why not send 4or 5 attacks in different realms not far apart! The harder thing is watching players

And if you ever find it hard to play that many realms samy, it is ok if you take a week or two off from all wars in R4. I have no problems with that.

Playing only one realm is a bit boring at beginning and end of era. Playing 3 realms is a bit too much for me.  *xxx* I think the optional is 2 realms as r2 and r4. But... *hmm* I already started r1 too because of a friend from real life who decided to try IO and I promissed to help him.
Of course it takes a lot of time and reduces sleep, but brings fun too.  *black_eye*
A lot of people spend all their life and all their free time in front of TV. I am not a TV person, it means I can dedicate this time to IO.
And meeting new people that are crazy in the same way as you are is a way  of telling yourself : I am not "strange"  *freak*  *crazy*, I am normal because I am not the only one who does this. *gamer*

see enki ! you even find a supporting community of other IO addicts so even if you had a another real life, it becomes after some time not so real :P I suggest you re-evaluate how real your life is, you must have missed something on the way !

I think I have some new arguments to get my wife to off my back when it comes to IO.
- IO is the real life, not her and my son. The family, day-time job and so on are only imaginary!

Thanks, you really are my REAL friends!

Ooops! wifey just caught me writning this  *black_eye*

Convert her, convert her !!! You will never again have boring family dinners, discussing the weather prognosis. No, you can have a heated dispute about how to defend the next attack in Nomads or how the version 1 alliance ranking system sucks!

 *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha*

You just described paradise! Maybe I should convert myself and join the_church so I can go there.

Actually this is good idea!
My daughter, for example, told me that I have to play other realms too, because she cannot hear only r4 stories and in r2 era is already finishing.
But she doesn't know that I am playing R1 too, because I was afraid to tell her... *hahaha*

*black_eye* why u hvnt mentioned that before  ??? ??? i still could have got around ur stories  ???

She knows everything about you, dear!  How could i tell all these stories without mentioning you? *hmm*

[:-} *bear* *dance*

May be. *pardon*

...The 5th day of war with AvengersIV.... We lost one more player... Dacarman decided to leave alliance and to sleep quiet without nightmares about Ophelia... :evil3:
In Avengers team is better, Agony came back from vac in the same day with our Lot_Stern. What it means? Did they travel somewhere together? 
I visited today Ghibon during the day. And he didn't have in the house my favorite Dark Chocolate  *tired*. Please, dear neighbor, arrange to have it in your house in case I am passing by and decide to visit you again... *rose*

dark chocolate?.... *hmm*...maybe a dark army?..how about that?..... *pardon*..and fro where you now so much personal thinks about me? *crazy*

I like to know everything about my enemies ... *rose*

Not that I am aware off... unless my girlfriend is playing IO as well without me knowing about it  *hihi*

That is why she gets pissed off when you log on via the phone, she probably thinks you are attacking her and she can't defend.

*hihi* *hihi* *hihi* if he stay out of my range i couldnt be a freddy kruger for him *xxx* *xxx* *xxx* *xxx*

boys will be boys *freak* *freak* *freak* they dont make of entertain a quest  *hihi* *hihi* *hihi* *hihi*
may well be you must try to come to me for wine and dine *rose*

dear sv_iv...stay home pls...i have no army...because tonight i will lose a fight wit one american guy.... *pardon*...so ..and i have small fortress level... :evil3:

is ok my boys like your beer :P

Did I ask about army?  :head_hurts_kr: I want only some Dark Chocolate...  [:-}

don't you guys wanna be in my 2x range ...
i got only 22targets ....and i didnt even started building army (http://s233.photobucket.com/albums/ee87/ottosec/th_volao.gif)

PS (http://s233.photobucket.com/albums/ee87/ottosec/th_snoozer_likelinux_man.gif)

nope we like being as far out your range as possible *hihi*

   *hahaha* *hahaha*   so far so good ..     *hahaha*  *hahaha*

Isn't it boring to be so far from everyone? How about game fun?

Of course its boring!!! And its lonely ! It's horrible to play for networth, I am telling you ! Once I had this farmer's account  for a few days and every time I clicked on 2x, there were only 2 other people in it  *xxx* It truly sucks, being at the top ! Besides I think it is really a waste of time to spend 3 and a half months farming just so in the last 3 days you can find some not so great farmer and kill his army and become a marshal too.

It is better to have less net points and MP and a lot of fun... [:-} I like IO for that moments before attacks... Of course the perfect battle, in my opinion is when you are in defense and prepare an ambush... :evil4: This is something wonderfull!!!  *ice* And of course meeting new interesting people  *bear*

ambushing in r4 is really hard cause of the online status! In realms with no online status ambushing is great and yes fun! I love catching waves where you don't remove spy's don't move resources maybe even let them take all resources from 1 provence to catch them in another! Is funny in these realms though when attacking how many players have not worked out how to play sleeping killer! And kill your spy's move there resources and let you know there. *hihi*

Me too. My heart becomes  *heart*. I think perfect battle is that enemy running away at 49 morale.  *freak*

Or the ones that win on 31! Ain't that just great sv_iv?  *rose*

Yeh... I lost today that ambush of ghibon's Guards.... He won with morale 31... may be i was blind because they are too shiny for me?  *rose* Of course 2517 of them were left in my province 7, but I wanted more than this... It was day of bad luck... computer frozen after recall of 2 outgoing waves and 3 others came too late. And I couldn't find that calculator for pillages and used the siege one... But... day only starts... In China it is a saying: if you want something good to happen, have something bad first... In any case, difference between mine and ghibon's military points in the battle are not as big as i  was getting before, when we were online in different time and Naylrod and Ghibon were attacking my empty fort... And war is not over yet...This ambush was the first and I hope the last my unsuccessful ambush in the game and i am learning a lot from it. First of all that calculator for siege and for pillage is calculating in different way the field battle. In the pillage morale could be lower, but pillager still can win. For me this is very strange, but this is what I saw today. And...the most important thing is: if you think you can be attacked and are ready to ambush and are preparing this ambush, provoking your enemy to attack, don't divide your army in waves when sending away. If I had just 1 outgoing attack, things could be completely different. First of all I would have adjust time better and army would arrive few secs before hit. I fixed the time when attacks went and knew perfect how far I am from home, but, because I had 5 waves, I had to recall a bit earlier first 2 waves. And if I had 1 wave only and pressed the recall could be only 2 variants: 1. Connection was OK, my army arrived in time and battle won. 2. Computer frozen, my army not recalled at all and pillage went without problems for ghibon. This one lesson I won't forget forever.

As you can see, samy, I already started to follow your advice to write a good instruction about how to ambush in IO...

I don't think it was a bad ambush, maybe a risky one. Ghibon did end up on 31 moral after all, he could have run at 49.

But maybe, monkeys don't run!

Thank you, Naylrod. But I am not a risky person. Usually in such moments I am cold as ice and if I would use the right calculator, this ambush wouldn't happen...

Bloody monkeys *Angry* I hope you are right and when my army goe's to kill ghibon in true monkey fashion he stays and fights so I can kill him! Is good to see we are forcing you guy's to take risks! A little tip for those wanting ambush or win feild in pillage! if attackers army has higher morale than defender army will continue fighting feild battle even under 50 morale! This was not the case with sv_iv the monkey got lucky *hihi* Well done ghibon but I think considering we have come back from under 100 points behind war is far from over there are few points between us! *rose*

m calling animal rights , killing monkeys is not good  :D

Are you sure that killing people is more legal *hmm*?

do u think human rights will believe me  :D :D after i said thrs a bomb in thr office  :P :P

... I decided to thank here in forum the Development Team for wise decission not to let one province to be pillaged more often than 1 time per week... Only imagine what can be if they let it happen every day????  :evil3:

The last few hours of war with Avengers... We are leading 48 mp. [:-}  Me and ghibon are in a kind of "vacation" the second day. *ice* :zzz: :zzz: Both are keeping armies at home and entertain each other with spies... Samy told me one time, that if wars were calculated by killed spies, I would win them all. I would say for a female player in IO, spies are kind of small signs of attention from you, guys!  *friends*

We lost the war with Avengers, but I don't feel like losing... If to take in consideration that the second part of war we were fighting 3 of us against 8 of them, it is not strange that they scored few more points at end of the war. In 2 days we will have a new reinforcement in our alliance and can try again to fight Avengers. May be this time we will declare on them? The most important thing is that we saw that we know how to fight them and we are doing it with success... We pulled back their high lead and got a lead ourselves. May be it was a short lead, but it WAS.
I hope that besides war we will be friends as before. This in only a game and we play it for fun and not to make enemies, but friends. And they all are nice people.

yes a good hard war fought with avengers all other wars not much tto talk about! Dragon put up a bit of a fight but doda attacked lot_stern for armysave and finnished that! I can't say much as used gharn and kosac for armysave myself in avengers war. *hihi*. But yes war with avengers to fights involving armys killed lot killed agony's archers and ghibon won a 50/50 pillage with sv! 1200 points where scored between us mainly in constant waves and pillages! svetlana played stale mate with ghibon locking his army at home and hers also! the war was close and could of gone either way!  [:-} avengers are yet to comment although they will probally say it was easy. *hihi* Well done smokers you did well and advengers of course you did well to you won! Smokers will stay no.1 AR so the quest continues. :evil3:

i say BRAVO  *bear* there is a lot of joy in losing sometimes , i wish i could have lost with u Smokers..
go go go  *drunk* *bear* m with u as a gold mine  :-[ and i gurantee that was the last time Avengers declared on Smokers , they wont declare any more as they got the taste  :P

Don't be so sure mate... I will return from snowboarding with lots of blood lust...

cool come and get it *Angry*

today we have an enough relaxing game. War with Dragon finished yesterday. Got some war income and couldn't understand for what? After this remembered my few archers in the fort meeting DODA's army. For some cheap light archers they brought not bad war income.
R2 finished yesterday. Our alliance got today the second Irish flag. Two Irish flags and non Irish players  *hahaha*.

 *ice* *ice*

We lost this night the war with BLACKWATER.... I didn't expect this from our alliance... *hmm* May be we relaxed too much after war with AvengersIV?

soo, who who? and all of u r gay, as kroppy says

and btw, i`m glad that someone still plays r4, keep the tradition going

nah m not gay...kroppy says shit and u comin after long days to forum..wb

thx :D

chillout sv  *bear*

How did that happen?

they came , they fought , they conquered ....the journey continues.......FFNN *freak*

thanks we will do our best to make r4 good again! Although must say is nice not to have polish as a neighbour *hihi* Hope you come back and play r4 soon mate [:-}

it happened and members have learn't there lessons won't happen again *Angry*

manythings happens 1st time  :P

I think it was a set-up to bring back the fight between the top 2 in the ally-race  *bravo*

so u are in race  :D *cool*

now the game starts for me   :evil4: :evil4:
Let's rock  *evil* *evil* *evil*

You have no one in your 10x-range!  *freak*

you rock ......the question is with ho are you rock?.... *pardon*.....

well i still need 2 weeks for la grande armee to be assembled and ready for battle  [:-}

damn....you have no army?....and lots of points.... *xxx*.....why?...oh why?..i am such a small player.... :head_hurts_kr:

ofc bade ghibon ...you were always smaller player.
To bad you are not in my range ... i like fighting friends ...

ghibon u gonna die in hands  *evil* right now i hv no army though  *sos*

   hahahahahah....ok......you rock

:D *drunk*

maybe i am a small player ...but i have a big heart......and i am a good friend  *Angry*

only when you are drunk  *hihi*

He is the drunken master

I am going officially to decide to lose a war. The war against X_LEGIONE. I don't see why should I do everything possible to win in a war that is against all my style in IO? X_LEGIONE is 4 times bigger than us and they declared this war specially for me. Only I was in 3x range of some their players. They put their points down, attacked me and grew back. If I continue to try to grow urgent and come to their 2x range, I am going to destroy completely my economy. 2 of their smaller players are keeping armies at home and trying everyday to grow as much as possible. Do I have to do the same? I want to fight and to have fun and not to hit all day coins and avoid serious battles because I might lose net points. While other players are increasing their MP, I care only about NP. *hmm*
I don't remember any wars lost by our alliance in R4 or R2 because of my serious mistakes. I don't miss my army arrivals, don't fall asleep before attacks and don't fight uncalculated battles. I think I have all rights to lose a war. I am going to have fun from this game or to quit it completely.

Common SV  *friends* u know we dnt like gold coins..and we never back down from serious wars..its just the netpoints we cant grow in one night :D they are more like farmers  *crazy*

It is stupid to fight alliances more than twice bigger than you for 2 points in the alliance ranking. Meanwhile you could be declaring other wars and winning many more points. X Legione have chosen a coward strategy to hide behind their netpoints and there is no right to fight them, a loss to them means nothing...

Smokers are inactive today  *Angry*... samy has some problems with computer and Lot decided to leave us. But It is not for long. We have a new player who wants to join us and will be again ready to fight our enemies  :evil4:

*sos* *sos* we fight , we win  , we die..........lot has his problems , samyo has got his problem....problems that is started has an end  *friends*..somehow i have finished my work a bit  :D :D

I will be back soon have moved house back to countryside and my pc has broken in the move! And I am working alot again as spring is comming! To all smokers plz keep on fighting and see you all asap! As soon as I work out out why I can get nothing on my monitor! I just really hope I hav'nt got to rebuild whole pc. *xxx*

Good luck rebuilding the pc mate... it sucks when ya can't get online... luckily you are in vacation mode now  *rose*

not so lucky may be , m out though  :D

We have a new alliance member Sephirius. A name with a mystery and a big secret... But let time reveal it later....
I am the leader till samy sorts his computer. I attacked X_LEGIONE last night, got 48 mp and dropped their lead to only 7 points. But today 3 of them are attacking me already. They are leading again with 39 points. May be if I put enough effort, i can get another 48 points from 6 waves to a fort 5.... But... we have other wars too and that 2 points lost or won against X_LEGIONE won't change the weather in alliance ranking... too big trouble for too little reward. . aaaadddd told me that they are going to declare again upon our alliance tomorrow. we are in their x5 range... Near 400k net points alliance fighting against 1 player from our alliance (me).... *hahaha* I don't understand what kind of fun are they getting from this? :head_hurts_kr:

its/was probably kopsi's other account  *freak* since he is called sephirius in other games we play  *freak*

So kopsi got himself a Trojan in smokers? Good work!

nah i was watching it on beginning its not him playing that account..anymore,but its probably him who registered that acc  *freak* i know him too well 

Yes, it was his account, I remember hims showing with it in chat...but if I am right it is played by somebody we all know, someone coming back for just a little bit from the past ;)

someone come back for a bit of fun ^^

dont let him get too much, you know what happens to x-quitters brought back to life  *freak*

I am going to take care of it as he is now in our alliance and is my closest neightbor.... *rose*

war against X_LEGIONE  came close to the end.... The score is

   72   111   -39

Hope it will stay in this way till last minute.... We couldn't do anything as all X_LEGIONE alliance was online till last hour with all armies home and from 3 players in my x2 ish  range 2 were sent to vacs....  *hmm* 
I was really pleased with this big attention from all X_LEGIONE players to me as the only one player in their range.... *heart* *rose* *heart*

War with X_LEGIONE finished without any more changes in score.  No new war declared from their side as promissed. We don't want to declare an x5 range war too.

Thank very much all friends who  supported us and tried to help.  *bear*

We can also consider  our war against BLACKWATER finished. Officially there are 2 more days left, but they asked last night about cease fire. The score is

158   45   113

In 3 hours will finish war with Makedonci, but no visible actions from their side.

249   230   19

Other going wars:

Esparta
178   67   111
and Punishment
No blood yet.

Nice! I also declared war on Punishment.  *pardon*

My war with X Legione is going excellent ! For now my main target of attention is Randalthor, who seems to be taking stoicly the fact that he is getting pillaged and robbed for 300-400k every day. I consider it unfair though that he should be the only one showered with signs of attention, so soon I shall pay some respects to his teammates as well. I Loooove farmers !!!

Farmers in general or Italian farmers are your favorites?  *hihi* :evil4:

Good Luck!

Pity you cannot have an official war against them... ;)

 *hahaha* that is a funny score

Yes, I agree.... It is a funny score...  *hahaha*   But after Dex killed by mistake his army on Makedonci, got depressed    :head_hurts_kr: and left again game, I had to attack in my x3 range and fix the situation. But I don't want to do  it again and lose a lot of honor.

DEX, If you are reading the forum, I put your account on a vac for 2 days. Calm down and come back.... Mistakes can happen with everyone, boy!
We still love you!  *kissgirl*

omg again?   *sos* *hahaha* he'll be back,he's like the worst quitter i ever saw  *black_eye*

If it will continue to go in the same way, soon all alliance will have Irish flags and will stay in the vac.  *hahaha*

@sv_iv
I really salute your effort...you never quit...and I am proud to play with you although we have to fight against you in terms of game:)

Thank you!  :-[

Do you see my profile picture? I am SO sory I don't have a 3rd hand....  ???

those cheaters *crazy*

In my opinion is better to be a cheater than a loser...  *hihi*

Remember KOPSi's great saying: You are not a cheater, till they catch you :D

cheating is an art just don't get caught

Who's the cheater? My sword is hungry.  *Angry*

Samy at last understood what is wrong with his PC.... Something with the motherboard... I hope now he will fix it... *gamer*

New "Trojan" in smokers: clonetroop   *freak* and his successful army kill in Punishment:

clonetroop(smokers)   krolik(Punishment)    319      135
 *bravo*


Total result in the war:

427   143   284

 

Sv_iv, do you go around recruiting the noobs of the realm :D I mean, not that much is left actually, but how can play with someone named "clonetroop"  *freak* Reminds me of my boyfriend, who had his first era a nice WAM ( we are many), if I knew that before we would never be together  *hmm*

Smokers is an alliance which from any noob can make an expert... :D
And we all started as noobs one day.... I count on mine and Samy's great pedagogical skills. In every realm and each era he like to try new players. I was myself a NOOB last era in r2 and I am very thankful to Samy that he decided to take a great risk and accept me in his alliance.... As about names, I saw this day in r2 a new alliance called VETERANS that doesn't have any real veterans in it.... You can call yourself superhero, but it won't make you one...

Noobs make this game much better.   *rose*
For about me I'm noob. *freak*

In this case, welcome to the noob society... Being a noob  and being aware of it is the best strategy in any game...

I was told today that I was reported for account sitting... :head_hurts_kr:. It is very good that people who are doing investigations are not fools and saw that all what I did was only sending samy and dex to vac.. *tired*. 
But I am wondering who wanted me so much out of game board?  *UNDECIDED*
Does somebody hate me so much  *Angry* or is only afraid of me?  :evil4:

Today a very tiny Fairy joined us....

(http://www.gotomycodes.com/userpics/myspacegraphics/Butterfly-Glitters/Butterfly-Green-Fairy.gif)

They say fairies bring Luck! Let see how true it is ...

And recently you only logged to sephirius account to see what granary levels he has  *rose*

Did you already report me again?
I was told after first reporting that as long as I don't attack anybody from another account, everything is OK.... BTW, I logged in somebody else's account last nigh too (not smokers) .... And made a donation of 8 euros buying some credits... You know, I am a kind person and like to make small presents... *rose* But I am using PayPal for payments and don't want to give to anybody my password to my credit card... And people who I decide to help trust me their passwords.... Strange isn't it? But they don't lose anything, only gain...

Smokers again number 1 in the alliance ranking!!!   :hooray:
I know, I know, it can be only for one day, because we missed to declare 3 wars with all these problems in the alliance: samy's PC, old members leaving, new members joining...
But it is pleasant in any case that we managed it...  *YAHOO* *YAHOO* *YAHOO*

I would of report you if I even thought for a second that you will get banned, but nothing is never done in IO by admins so it was pointless.............Good thing to know that babysitting isn't a problem anymore, thanks for the info *rose*

You are right, they won't ban me... I was told after clearing that I am a person who really cares about players honor and don't have multi accounting or traces of cheating... To tell the truth, I was pleased that I was reported in the first place...

That means that you should thank someone else...
BTW, it would be interesting to see some reports about smokers, like wars or other stuff

Sorry, I cannot publish reports that were in the last 7 days (IO rules) and don't keep old reports.... they are too many.... As about 2 our last finished wars:

Esparta   2009-03-03 02:57:04   2009-03-10 02:57:04   178   67   111
Punishment   2009-03-04 20:44:32   2009-03-11 20:44:32   451   149   302

And here is one of defensive battles that happened 4 days ago and is not included in the wars scoring:

satukbey(_OSMANLI_)   Sephirius(smokers)   7296   0   132   1983   541099   0   486

It is pleasant when people leave sieges in your provinces... *hihi*

Today X_LEGIONE declared a new war upon smokers.... I decided to take a short break, listen the audio book "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu and think.... :hmmm:
Who knows, may be it can help?

:))))

sorry but it doesn't work here:(

Who knows, who knows? It works everywhere.... in real life, at work and in family problems...  I better try everything...

I would say it is working.... I heard today in this audio book that you better don't believe everything what you see....
If you think it is a mess, look for an organized one.... If you think that it is a perfect organization look for a mess or cheating...
And I decided to look more careful at X_LEGIONE.... I was impressed in the last war about how well are they organized and what I saw this night?
They all went off in an strict organized way from 19:35 till 19:58 server time. This made me think more  :hmmm: and look more careful and.... ohhh SURPRISE. SURPRISE!!!!

WHAT IT MEANS????!!!!  Our brave Italian boys are just one  *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha*


CHEATER!!!

Where is your sword Naylrod? You said you are ready to fight any cheater....

1. those italians arent pushovers
2. they are a team . They may not be good players as an individual player but they make a good team.
From what i see ...there isnt only one guy with 5accounts...You cant refresh 2 browser in one second.
ofc nowadays everyone looks for excuses why they lose wars  *black_eye*

Well first of all for who didn't knows me I'm also known as RandAlThor.......I'd like to say just a few thing to you sv_iv
Could you explain to me why your danish friend sephirius as sometimes irish flag ?????????
Could you explain to me if we are just one player what kind of connection we have to manage to shift from me to nelson in just 5 seconds????????
I think you couldn't.....so stop talking about cheating and fight.

thank you for the support moya
 *bravo* *bravo* *bravo*

Do you want to say that you also have 5 accounts?

It is not an excuse for us that we lost that war... It is a shame that 2 alliances smokers and Avengers lost from only 1 player!!!   :evil3:

I am playing 3 realms r2, r4 and r1 and I have 3 different browser all opened on the screen and I am watching all 3 realms in the same time.... There are our days not only 3 browsers.... I need only 3 and this is why I have 3 of them.... It is impossible for 5 different members of an alliance to get up at the same time 2am in Italy and log in in the same minute.... It doesn't matter how good team you have... real life is real life and they are not robots, if they are real people.

well...I am on the side of thinking that each is playing well...

if you have any doubt you have to report this sv_iv...operators has to see the actions so if there is a cheat ,than they can do whatever is needed..

we are fighting with them too as Avengers but I recognized that they are playing really in a well organized manner so I have to say that this admirable...if we were playing as a members of the same country..we can do the same too as communication can be so easy too..we do more complex actions in some online games like Ogame which is more complicated than IO by using that advantage...

so I have to congratulate them but I suggest you to report them to get an answer so that you have no doubt in them..because I really hate this platform..everybody says lots of things about the people whom he/she does not  know much...

ps..I am the leader of an allience of 28 members in Ogame..when there is an operation more than 8 people is needed..I call them to be online..but it can not happen all the time for the real life issues but it can happen sometimes..the important thing is that..if they do this everynight..than it is something to be searched...but as I said before we musn't say that they are guilty before there is an investigation by the operators(if there is some: )

my point was that there wasn't just 1.
you can't refresh 2 browsers in one second.

well if you think so ask to chek our ip and eplain to me the change of flag by sephirius

and sv-iv you could also came in international chat so we could talk to you al toghether    *hahaha* *hahaha* *hahaha*

It is not refreshed in one second, but in 1 min.... each one is with interval of 10-20 secs, which is enough.... As about watching them, I saw this in the last war too, but was just admiring their discipline....
As about reporting, I asked about an investigation just after they logged off, because I saw that if they log in all together, they don't do it when they log off.... There is a difference in time, because you need to save resources or to send army away....

well i dont think you are right
but ofc i can be mistaking

but somebody read what I write????????????????

anyway, there aren't bans for babysitting *pardon*

this is the most nonsense thing...why do we play..we find someone whose life is nearly all IO...and care for all the acc.

I think there has to be misunderstanding..(even if it is like I am about the say..it is not fair too ) babysitting can be ragarded ok if the acc is logged in not by the member of the same allience..babysitting with the members of the same allience has to be regarded as organized cheat as it is in all the online games..but I don't know what the real rule change is...and if it is like that as radooo says..this game needs no quality..everybody can be everything here..no need to talk too much...

In my few years of playing IO I have not seen such a thing as the italians in X Legione are doing. I have played with people who are good, dedicated, maniacal and STILL never I have seen THAT GOOD organization ! I dont think its possible, i dont think its human that 5 people (used to be 6) can coordinate their actions so well , considering they must have real lifes and also pay attention to that.

Thanks to the fact that Randy is close to me I have been observing the bunch and I can tell you - those boys are good ! They log in exactly after 6 hrs, ALL of them. They do the same blocks, they CHANGE their block whenever they need to (in a matter of just few hours if need be!) and they are online EVERY HOUR of the day except for their 6. Now, you could argue with me that there are 5 Italian players that are so well dedicated, organized and versatile as to do that. I think that's bulls^%t ! There are not 5 normal players left in realm 4 that will log in seconds after their block ! I dont doubt the fact that there are 5 people who started these accounts, I have seen Daenerys and aaaadddd in previous eras but if you are trying to tell me that each of these five people logs every day in their own account, that each person gets up at 2 am or 6 am or whenever they have to, that each person logs in each our during the day in their own account.... I think its impossible. I think it is not human to achieve this.

Of course, as Radooo noted, it makes no difference if they are babysitting or not, they most probably wont be punished in a game where babysitting is going eventually to be legalized. But still, for someone to come here and claim that nothing is wrong, I wont believe it.

P.S. I just somehow thought Jon Snow to be American, now how did THAT happen ?

I agree with moya here, the only cheater is you sv_iv.
But they do not punish for baby-sitting anymore which is a shame in this clear case.  *hmm*

Moya didn't say that I am a cheater, it is you, who first said it...

And it shows only one thing: That you Naylrod are a coward. You said your sword is ready to fight any cheaters and now, when I am showing you who it is you are afraid to keep your word because you cannot fight X_LEGIONE.... This is very clear now.

I had to go to samy's and dex's account to send them to vac. I was there for 3 mins in each of them without sending any attacks or fighting somebody.
Of course, I could just kick out dex, but he deserves to be loved without keeping list of his mistakes..
Of course, I could ignore samy's request by phone, but he is my friend and, if it is necessary, I will go again to risk for him.  Friendship is more important for me than all these rankings.

I went to another account to buy some credits and you call it cheating, but one smart guy is fighting you from 5 accounts doing coordinated attacks and is showing that he is stronger than all your alliance and you are ready to accept that he is clear only because you cannot fight back...

I was sure from beginning that you reported me in first place because you wanted me to be banned after samy got his problems with PC and wanted to finish our alliance...
I understand, you didn't plan to have smokers here this era who can take off your lame shine and show to every one that your coin is false...

If you will look through all forum, you will see that I didn't insult or told something bad about you at all as you were trying to do this on regular base... I know that you hate me and I understand why... We are too different: You want to show your superiority and I am just a kind and friendly person who enjoys this game and people see this.

Smokers started this era as underdogs and became favorites...
Why? You didn't ask yourself this question?

Because you, dear boy (yes, I can call you in this way, because i am older than you), tried too hard to show that only Avengers are real players here and everybody else around is only dirt on your shoes.
After fighting an alliance you usually want to show that they all are noobs and we see good sides of these players and try to teach and understand their mistakes. And you know what I saw? A lot of these players are may be better than you and we, but they have real life that puts its limits on the game. And they are right: this is only a GAME, but not life itself... We are here to have fun and not to show our superiority as are doing you and this big Italian cheater. If not that Italian flag, I could think that this was you playing there... You both are like twins in your crazy attempt to humiliate people around you.
I am really sorry for both of you.... You should be very unhappy people in your real life to do this...

 *evil* Coward ..good for u..

I did not read all you wrote sv_iv but i wanna clarify some of what I read.

I like smokers, i like samy and I like you but when I read in the forum rules that baby-sitting is illegal, I report it. I did not report when you did it with samy, only after you did it with dex. To bad they don't punish for this anymore, and it should be taken out of the rules.

I don't think X_Legione are cheaters so why hunt them, and they are to big for me, I don't see why that makes me a coward.

And truthfully, I love the competition you give us, and I do support baby-sitting but only after it is made legal.

We have had players killed because of bad internet but not a single time it crossed my mind to enter their acc's and put them in vac.

There's no proof needed to call a coward a coward...like u call others noob/cheaters..and X_legions are big so u afraid of being hunted..

May be sometimes u can call me noob or may be cheater , which is ok..but sv is noway a cheater...this aint bcoz i was in smokers , but its how i know her... loading...

The matter with X_LEGIONES has been investigated by IO Admins and they have been cleared of any serious breach of the game rules.
Please do not call them cheaters.

EDIT : I'm moving the argument about babysitting/cheating to the general topic of legalizing babysitting .... I hope that you'll refrain from using this post for something else that trading accusations of cheating ;)

Have fun,

cheater  X) This is still a democracy !

Those who make the rules are always the biggest cheaters .... but it's legal :P

The power, the power !!! Its getting to his head !!! Cut it off, cut it off !

cutting powerful (arf !!) heads ... be careful or you'll get some bad froggy habits ....

be happy its the head :D There are worse things that can happen to a man, the French know that well ;)

Avengers declared today on us... OK... at moment just on me as an active player in their x2 rank... Let see what we can do... :evil4: :evil4: :evil4: :evil4:

Other finished wars:

BARBAROS       +119
SRBEX             +19
RusSwords       +60

Outgoing wars:

OTTOMAN        +336
Punishment       +30
X_LEGIONE       +9 (1070 : 1061)
Esparta            +213
LPS                 +2

Dragon and BARBAROS no blood yet...


I want to thank all my friends who supporting and helping me in this hard time...

Sorry, Barbaros already +3...

It s time for me to write a special post for Iris and thank her for help in the war with X_LEGIONE...

It is amazing what can do 2 feminine player if they become friends...

(http://www.arenaflowers.com/product_image/large/863-purple_iris_yellow_tulips_bouquet.jpg)

Don't worry, we like to hit in our 3x-range as well.  *rose*

No worries... in this case we have 6 Avengers against to women players: me and our small fairy...

BTW, here is the difference between smokers and Avengers: We don't like to attack players smaller than x2... It is a shame for a good player to do such thing ...

Well, I just realized that Avengers declared war on us at St. Patrick's day, the protector of  Ireland... This is a really good sign now....

Thank you Svetlana :) It's a pleasure for me, besides you are not the only one being grateful, our italian stalions are bringing me gifts every day too !!! On top of their regular 6 hr income and nice juicy provinces to pillage, yesterday Randy decided to be even nicer by sending 2000 paladins against my 27k phalanx :D

And today, after almost a week, they finally gathered the courage to come all at once, brave men and pillage and rob me, but even here, they could not fail but entertain me! Kudos, X Legione, you really know how to fight !

(http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u295/anjuli17/pillage.jpg)

You know, I like these Italians more and more!!!  *rose*

New updates in the ranking:  :-[ ;) *rose*


smokers       284   
AvengersIV       282   
LPS               264

I am talking in general, Vira hit aj_style (in his upper 3x-range) in our war with DRACULA.

And besides, we are not really good players as you can see all over the forum or in the book I will write after this era, with all the in-game messeges I get.

...and there is also one other difference between smokers and Avengers, we don't smoke.  *HI*

St. Patrick point at snakes and tell...those small little creatures shall burn in HEL!   :evil4:

/The Priest

You MUST be kidding ! They wont pay you author's rights for that book here, you know :D

I am always serious! You of all people should know that...  *ice*

War with X_LEGIONE becomes more and more exiting...
Now we have 9 Italians fighting us with Iris... OK, OK, We will tell the truth: they are 8... We won't count that 254 points account aldounico, isn't it? This is not a playing account just a consulting or a spy account, call it how you want...
Soon all Italians of R4 will join together to fight 2 girls... Tell me what you want, but these romantic Italian guys know how to entertain a lady...  *heart* *rose* *heart*
I already started to think. may be is better to move myself to Italy? Why not if they are soooo romantic and brave guys?
Now their summary points puts them on far bigger range than x5.... THIS I call real attention... *kissgirl*

If you move to Italy, St. Patrick will no longer be on your side.

Well, unfortunately numbers have won over - the gods were with the legionairres in this war :( Still I am happy I have taught them a trick or two and managed to do a phenomenal amount of waves on them :D See you next war, stallions and dont expect an easy ride  :evil4:

There are 2 days to go, youre gonna give up already?

We are not gonna give up... But I am sick at moment and need some rest... got a very bad chest infection... But I hope to fix it these days... samy recommended me by phone hot drink with chilly... I prefer hot Moldavian wine ( my parents sent from home) with some honey and chilly... As about moving to Italy, St. Patrick might help me there too and all my gods from my favorite Norse mythology...
And we, Moldavians and Romanians have a very similar language with Italian... It could be very easy learned.
Oh well... I better go to boil my wine...  *drunk*

I hope you get well.  *drunk* (boiled wine in those bottles)

Well, after 7 days of fighting, I am happy to report we have lost the war ! But we have won against X_Legione.  Because X_Legione have shown indeed how great of an alliance they are ! They have fallen to 3 women (one out of range) and kicked out 2 of their members, with whom they have played entire era ! But before that ...

After much strategy I was able to do my 6 hrs without X Legione doing theirs as well and today at midnight me and AJ joined smokers to give the italian stallions some hell. They had already put Randalthor in vacation and made their smallest member a leader. We waited patiently from the leader to come back and the others to do their offline time, but that was not the case.

When the leader came, he admitted some members...and then more...and more...until pretty much half of the realm was in X Legione :D This is how they looked ;)

(http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u295/anjuli17/legione.jpg)

There was actually more people, they were over 1 million networth :) They put nelson in vacation as well - before that I managed to sneak 6 waves on him. And yet all of the candidates were gone - what now ? Aaaadddd and daenerys would have to go on block before the end of war - and then we would win. They stayed...until they could. And then they left the alliance because they have a 10 hr ban.

I think we won this war - not for the ranking - but for the fact that I for once feel morally satisfied. I dont care if these guys were babysitting, but they were one of the toughest opponents in this realm and they were strategists ! And I was truly shocked at how far they went to win one crumby stupid war ! Yet, we fought them till the last drop of blood and we COULD have won because all the points in this war were scored by 2 females with networth half of theirs.

This is to show alliances who just let X Legione win - HOW you should fight ! This is how you fight, not by killing noobs in province 8 ! Until the last minute, with every possible means against overwhelming odds ! Learn something and dont give up no matter how good the enemy is! Because in the end, this is how the enemy looked !

(http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u295/anjuli17/post_legione.jpg)

We lost the war with 1185 - 1232 - with 47 points difference. All I can say is, congratulations well... X_X_Legione, i hope victory tastes sweet ;)

First of all I have to say, I salute your efforts, smokers!  :hard:

But X_Legione is also doing some nice strategy here, a little cheap, but I also admire it in a way. They do what needs to be done. A little bit like what we did when we won against DRACULA but in a bigger and more impressive scale.  *bravo*

all that it is pathetic. we always we played sporty without to hide us. you have begun to do to enter and it go out members from the alliance to hit and to hide be gone out, big fine game compliments, continued so that smokers, you will win surely

I think it is time for us to tell the truth:
We were not 3, we have a hidden member... Fairy is expecting a baby..... I hope it won't smoke in the day of delivery?  *freak*

This is not pathetic, remember our first war when you dropped your points, attacked me the only 1 player that time in your x3 range, and grew points so high, that i had 5 days to keep myself from serious battles and to hit mostly coins and grow points. You were not hiding that time behind your high points?

And i am really sick at moment as well as Iris, but we were fighting till end...

I like something else in this war: At last you made your spy account aldounico to grow: it was a REAL sacrifice...


The far the more I am thinking may be to set up next era a female alliance in r4?  *rose*

controversial useless. in future you play sporty avoiding the "ballet" of the members at least we will be able to do a serious war without tricks ;)

really cheerful war:)

continue pls..btw wishing well for the new and the cutiest member...fairy's little warrior:)

What else can you say? In our first war I didn't give up too and was playing alone against your alliance... I had a very bad time that week with samy's broken computer and dex and Lot leaving the alliance...And around 5 wars going on... But, if you remember, I was ready to attack you till the last minute of the war and I didn't lose any other wars...

(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_auJyNd2jdmE/SYGzRh6CDlI/AAAAAAAABNw/GUZhPErcCIk/s400/never-give-up-frog.jpg)

Yeah! I had actually same thougst regarding a girls alliance...You, Isolde, Ophelia and Hiske...THAT would be something...but i think You would need some fifth member that is not a girl and that would make peace in the alliance!!!  *freak*

@Nelson...wow i see that u guys are 4 of u now and all on vac mode except for ur 1 point acc that is the leader...so dont talk about tricks! And You add players when u need them...I dont say anything against Your tactics...u do very well but its pathetic to accuse other players or alliances in such situation... *crazy*...u use all the tricks u know, and complain about those that u did not expected!?  *sos*

We will take fairy with us and her baby and Hiske's will make peace...

Hiske making peace with Isolde!?...Not this century!  :D

@Nelson...wow i see that u guys are 4 of u now and all on vac mode except for ur 1 point acc that is the leader...so dont talk about tricks! And You add players when u need them...I dont say anything against Your tactics...u do very well but its pathetic to accuse other players or alliances in such situation... ...u use all the tricks u know, and complain about those that u did not expected!?   


WANTED...

players who manage to play without tricks or oh sorry..tactics *hihi*

yes my dear?

eheheh the problem is not to use other players, but to use them alone to hit and then to go out from the alliance to hide itself and not to undergo points, this is sporty?  *hahaha* ops excused tactical ..... we will adapt ourselves to this tactical then  *pardon*

@hiske

happy to find one:)

more pls?? :)

Even God used his tricks to open the Black Sea for the people or made wine of water! :)

Tricks or tactics are part of this game. Thinking that this game is about hitting boxed 8 is to simple! The war between Smokers and X-legione showed part of the game on higher lvl and that is also what make this gmae interesting...breaking walls and killing armies can be pretty boring after a while but a good war is always making this game worth playing...

As this is a war game, i cant recall any war in History that have not used every tactic or trick they can...Troyan war is famous and so Russing tactics that made all enemies fall to the ground...I second Iris in all she wrote, this is exactly what its all about...

/The Priest - making miracles of tricks

u dont find more than Hiske!  *freak*

@Nelson...adjusting is fine...its also part of the game...as I wrote before, You did very well!...But u dont have to blame others or accuse somebody!..Its very simple, You won the war and that is what u should get credit for!...You dont have to defend anything u did...

I didn't use any tricks before, but in this war we had to... And this is the same as using a Trojan, only in another direction.... I asked admins if it is legal and was told that, at least, it is not illegal...

As about girls fighting each other, if they have a common enemy, they don't usually fight one another....

unfortunately there's a very thin line between tricks/tactics and cheats. Of course using tricks and tactics makes this game fun! I've had my share of them too ;) but always reasonable (at least for me! *hihi*) I guess that thin line is different for everyone therefore some people will always accuse others for crossing it.


are you kidding me???

Yeah, u might be right but its just in theory...I still cant see Hiske and Isolde in same team...they would have to stop hating each other and thats impossible! :D

there is a thin line between legal..illegal and at least illegal...:))

for trojan..this is the lack of the game data base..players take this advantage as they wish:) I don't think that the game company did this so that people can use trojans:))))) but our clever players use this for ruining the ones who are really noobs:))

well..I am a Turkish guy so I know the history of Troia better than most as I have the chance to roam there too:)

the last words:))))))))) use your tactics:) but don't get angry when someone thinks that it is creepy:)

 *stop* ever talked about illegality but of sportivity. However it does not exist the problem, is not the discovery of the "warm water"  :hmmm:, we will adapt ourselves of result  *SCRATCH*

This is bad, of course, but I know from real life experience that sometimes the worst enemies can become the best friends...
But you should recognize, that if we manage to set up such girls alliance, it will be N1 in alliance ranking....  :hooray:

Is it sporty to drop points, attack and after this hide again behind high points? If it is, it means that everything what was used in this war was sporty...
And I didn't hear before in IO or in real life about sporty and not sporty wars... In real life people are using during the war every possibility to win... Did somebody call these wars not sporty?

I want to apologize here public  to Andy-eu, because I was thinking that he used Vlad Tepes as a mercenary player against us.... I was confused by the name of this player from Venezuela. Vlad Tepes was one of our common Moldovian and Romanian kings and I thought he might be Romanian himself or is using an account set up by another Romanian player... He was insistently attacking me for few days stealing my resources....  Now, after I saw this name in the list of players who joined X_LEGIONE, I understand how wrong I was...

Andy, I am really sorry for thinking about you in this way...

It was a good match and both side should receive congratulations! :) You will remember this war as one of the best in this era! So now...shake hands! :)

@Gharn...as long as You apply my subjective way of see things everything is fine. The problem occur when You think that Your version is more objective than mine! Even if You think so, You are not the only one that know the history of minkind...just because u live closer or have read one book does not make u expert...when u read 3 different version of same war - the country version, the enemy country version and the diplomat country version - then u start to wonder what to believe...

/The Priest - believes that he knows!

I was about to say, you joined the wrong guy, ...but you always manage to talk me out of my bending-of-rules strategys so I guess I won't say anything.


hmmm, I have a slight different view of that, but I won't mention it again since the admins is on your side in this matter, and I accept that fully.

...........

And about that female team. I don't get it? If there is one place in the world where men and women are totally equal it would be in a game like this, so what is the point?  *xxx*


furthermore there is only one truth, the team that wins have the best strategy.
(Should not be mixed up by, that different players gets excited by different things.)

There is never ONE truth!!!


There is one thay is Yours and there is one that is mine! Gharn dont know what truth is but most people in the world do know!  *freak*

I would say, here is also necessary to look not only who won, but who and what lost in this war.... Smokers lost 2 points for alliance ranking and X_LEGIONE practically lost their team... The players who left alliance cannot join it again and if they set up a new one, they lose their ranking points.... X_LEGIONE cannot be any more what it was.... It was a really big sacrifice...


But this war brought a lot of pleasant moments in the game and we felt the game at it highest intensity... From this point of view, both sides won... And why else are we playing IO if not for such moments of excitement?

As about this recruiting strategy (this is the official name of it) it is very wide used in r1 where I am playing at moment.... We didn't invent anything new... The best things in the game and in real life were invented long before us...

Me speaking about what is true, refers to this war. Not to the ally competition, in that case I would say that the best strategy for you would be to ignore X_Legione and focus on other wars since you only lose 2p as you say. And I am not speaking about having fun, in that case I agree with all of the above, this must have been one of the most funny wars to be involved in this era and you are both winners.

So in away, EVEN the priest is right, there is not only one truth, but in this one subject there is. ...and you know it!  :P

Is winning the alliance race the most important in IO? No... And we can concentrate on that wars, that bring more fun better than fighting the boring ones and killing noobs as ourselves ( I still think we are an alliance of noobs).

What I am getting from boring wars thought only for points?  Nothing... As here was not so important how many points it will bring, but about what experience we can get from it? This war was worth of other 20 boring ones which brought a lot of points... Here brains were working so intense that you can hear it... :head_hurts_kr:

It is bad, of course, that my health was becoming worse and worse. I came too close to a limit in my strength... Before taking vac i was barely breathing and decided to stop... But after few more hours of rest I will start again to fight boring wars for ranking points... I don't know what is going on now, but when I went to vac we had only 2 wars with negative lead.... One war is already finished and another only started... and on Tuesday another our player is coming back from his trip and, hopefully, samy will fix at last his computer or will buy a new one, that is most probable.... He is going to work hard this weekend to earn enough money for it...

There is lot of things going on now that are exciting!!!...After X-Legione its Avengers turn to entertain us!...Ophelia already tried to trick me and I wait for her next move!

Its really a good war ongoing right now...and there are many other alliances that fight their war with Avengers on another lvl now....after being beaten up in past, they consolidate their skills and are fighting better so I think Avengers are those now that enjoy the game most of us all!  :D

As for X-legione, i hope they will be back in good shape...we need such alliances to have fun here! Although i cannot complain myself...this era is not so bad at all...

Then Andy is closing in...i reckon he fight those very booring wars but - he actually is closing in so very soon, he could be on top - I dont know if Andy wants to fight some exciting wars or just go the easy way to the top - I mean, he should also experience some war to remember from this era! :)

It will be nice to see You back in game sv! :)

/The Priest - gurding the right believe and right truth!

I don't know about Andy_eu's plans, but I already told Samy by phone that I am going to join Stud's alliance in r2 this era... I got few offers from different alliances to join them, but I feel that the biggest fun I can have is playing for this alliance....  Actually I am in vac in r2 too, but soon I will come back in both realms...

Again - just to clarify to Nelson again - I am NOT against you using candidates or whatever to win. You adapted to our tactic well - so well as a matter of fact that you did it 3 times bigger :D But that's OK, that's a challenge ! I dont mind that, what really surprised me kicking 2 of your friends out of the alliance ! Why did you do that ? Was this war so damn important ? One of your previous members is destroyed allready - is this worth it to win some 6 points in alliance ranking ?

Anyway, congratulation, I enjoyed the race - it was good and exciting and everything an alliance war should be ! No offense to anyone who likes killing noobs in province 8 - Naylrod thought I was refering to him for which I publicly apologize - it is not so. I like that too - but that is easy - a very good strategy for winning alliance ranking but it just doesnt bring me an adrenaline rush. A tough war is good, a tough war leaves memories. Thanks Svetlana for letting me take part in this, I will surely remember it ;)

Thank u all for supporting Smokers and bringing the best outta Smokers  *bear*
and Isolde m jealous of ur signature   *friends*

For the first time in your life, you are right.  *rose*

I don't think they are getting 4 points not to say 6.... It is more likely that only 2, because, as I remember, our alliance was below that limit after which you cannot declare wars anymore, but after Sephirius joined for a while it came to x5 range....

Anyway, I am really sorry that such alliance that was playing at limit of human possibilities in how it was organized, lost 2 members... It is not so easy to find for them replacement who will come all together online during 1 min  at 2a.m. 

But, guys, it was your own choice...

OMG its so long.....

i luv noobs  :P

Come  back, the biggest noob of 2008.... I really miss you!

I think this war was NOT A WAR FOR ALLIANCE RANKING.... It was a clash of strong characters and determination to win at any price...  *Angry* *Angry*

What a relief, at the first 10 posts about the matter it looked like the battle of the sexes.  *tired*

Apologies accepted *rose*

That boring wars helped me to have over 1kk unspent war income, which made me take in consideration changing  the strategy very very soon.....you should know better, zep, how much I can stay on.....

Less than me? :o

Taking in consideration your economy I can believe you get enough production from your villagers.....and I had too spend a lot for that stupid pal researchers, which are useless

Well to say the true we didn't think of kicking that  two members of if so we would have done it before without making them get the 10 hours ban, the plan was that they should stay online until 1 hour before the end of the war the rules say that when you log in the system look for the 6 hours offline but if they stay online thy shouldn't get the ban.....so now my question is did we misunderstand the rule???? and if not why did they take the ban???

I think there is a limit for staying online too: some people told me that you cannot stay for longer than 22 hours, others say you can stay 2 days... I didn't try to stay too long myself, as i was banned one time in r1, but it was in the moment when i logged in. I didn't count right my hours off line and took 5 hours instead of 6... After this case I am very careful and count few times before log in...
How long did they stay online?

7 days...  *pardon*

REALY?  *xxx* I didn't think that it could be for so long, but again, can you resist 7 days without break?

OK, I will explain it to you once and for all. IF you go offline at lets say 10 server time, do your offline 6 hrs and log back in at 16:00 server time - NEXT TIME you have to go offline is the next day BEFORE 15:00 server time - so technically you are allowed to stay almost 23 hours.

I do this regularly so I know it very well. I knew your member did last offline from 4:00 -10 server time, so I was expecting them to go before 9 server time, I was surprised they didnt. And dont think that just because you are online the system doesnt check for your offline time - EVERY TIME you click the system checks your offline, so of course you will get banned no matter if you are online or not :D

 :D Even longer if it is war with Soldiers or UNITY,....  *gamer*

Yeah right ! Nebthe was sleeping 10 hrs each day, I still remember I had at least 3 cups of coffee while waiting for his army to get home each day  *freak*

Carto 1, secret feature  *freak*

Yes Andy, I know quite well what u are up to but i could not resist to comment and joke a bit! :)

I hope that u dont mind, You know perfectly well how my 2 brain cells are working!

yeah we know that we had to make the 6 hours before 9:00 but this is what rule say:
Every player must have 6 consecutive hours of offline time on every 24 hours. Every time you log into the game, the system checks if you had 6 hours offline in the past 24 hours, counting from the logging. If you do not have that, the system locks your account for 10 hours.
So unless I missunderstand the rule if you don't log out you could stay online....is there someone that could clarify if I'm right or wrong???

if you stay online AFTER 18hrs but log out BEFORE the 23rd hours of onbline activtiy, you'll be fine for the reasons explained by Isolde and many others (that the system check per 30hrs if you got at least 6hrs offline every 24hrs) ....
for the same reason, if you don't have those 6 continuous offline hrs per 30hrs, you'll automaticalled get banned at the next login/auto-refresh ....

I think Iris is right here and you don't have to go off  line and come back for time check.... Because if not, somebody can play 4 months keeping account online and not get banned.... I was told that it is very dangerous to push time limits.... It happens sometime that i need to change my time off because of work and in this case I prefer to take 2 6 hours blocks during 24 hours.... I pushed few times time with 1 or 2 hours because army was not back, but not longer than this...

Some updates on our alliance....
After fairy left alliance because of too big stress in playing for smokers and getting tones of attacks from X_LEGIONE and LPS, I was very serious thinking about quiting the game myself.... Left the only one active member and being sick and in need of rest, was not improving my mood at all.... And here I made 2 mistakes and lost 3 defensive battles in 2 days... I didn't lose before any defensive battles, except to few coins... And I decided not to fight anymore for alliance ranking...
But after a while health started to improve and I made one more attempt to get alliance reinforcement...
Now we have 4 new members and clonetroop returned from his trip.... Alliance again became active. We need a bit of time to adjust one to another, but fighting wars will help us in this...

And era is not finished yet... *rose*

We are always willing to fight you, but isn't it time that you declare for once?  *rose*

We will... but give us few days to adjust one to another...Too big changes in the alliance...

No problem, take all the time you want.

*hmm*

I waited until sv_iv was back didn't I?  *rose*

Thank you Naylrod for waiting me!  *rose*

I am very busy at work the last 2 weeks.... had to take a vac to finish some urgent work  :-[

I think I will have to refuse to play next era or will join later... Real life is putting pressure on me. If somebody can pay us for playing IO  *freak*...

But I will try to stay till end of this era  or may be till near end, at least.

 Just busy, as usual, but promiss to write later about our alliance updates...

There are rumors about some big war, you don't wanna miss that.

Big war?  what it means?
In any case I am going to play as long as I can. But ... time will show...

Ask Iris, she knows more.

Promised updates:

Finished wars:

majapahit          293
TEMPLARIOS      580
SRBEX              383
junaci               679
X_LEGIONE          -7
BARBAROS         995
AvengersIV        234

Still going wars:

Punishment       429
AUCA               406
TURKEY            335
OTTOMAN         349
TEMPLARIOS       78

Alliance ranking:

LPS                 392
smokers           360
AvengersIV       354


Of course, we can not compete with LPS, because we are a big in net points alliance and cannot declare wars and fight alliances with 1 active player and a bunch of gold coins as they do.... we are fighting active strong alliance as ourselves...
But this is the LPS advantage of using low points strategy.... Now I am seriously thinking that this strategy is even better than a farmer one...

Nice!

You defeated Avengers?!?! That's intersting...

Yes, we did. and it was a really nice war with ambush, waves, timing and attempt to send us a Trojan horse... I would say a classical war... And score tells about it itself

2390   2156   234

And I think now that not that war with X_LEGOINE, but this one I will remember as our best war this era...

defenetly a one to remember....

and a big congratulations for that:) you really deserved the victory:)

hey what a alaince ranking *xxx*.....how come?....how are guys doing?

We lost our spirit when you left us Ghib!  *rose*

Or maybe it was when X_Legione beat us for the 4th time and we could not win the ally-race anymore.  *xxx*

And I think now that not that war with X_LEGOINE, but this one I will remember as our best war this era...
[/quote]

Well, it was a war between the best alliances that are around *rose*

Those are nice words but they way I see it, LPS is better! At least in adopting the rules and make a winning strategy out of it.  :hooray:

 *bravo* *bravo* *bear* *drunk* :hooray:

good to see you here Ghibon:))) we missed you so much:)

  how many wars you win at 0 passiv point(without one enemy attack)?
8 wars is a result...and 2 wars was finished at 14-1 and 50-2....
do you like easy win?
lps is similar statistics....because your attack a inactiv ally...do you enjoy yourself?
in the R4 i'm playing  2 yers old and i think that is the best realm but i wish that many thing will change

Daenerys(X-legion)
ps:
x-legion-smokers=3-0...8) 
   
   
   
 
 
   
   













 
 
 
 

And you were 3-4x times their size

Not that I wanna defend smokers in any way  *rose* but I remember a team of chickens called Victory who run away from a war with Avengers after scoring 1 point.

Then basically the same team formed X_Legione (not including Hydra who showed some character by leaving the bird-farm) a way better team but still with the heart of a chicken. 1 loss and you disband the alliance. Holy crap what a bunch of low life farmers.

You were definitely the biggest reason why Avengers did not win the ally-race, I'll give you that but my respect you will never have.

Chickens!

Just shut up Daenerys, you should be the last talking in here, you coward. *Angry* Have you ever finished an era in an alliance from the start to the end? *hmm*

Probably not...


LPS would have won it anyway *rose*

That is a mere speculation, and I disagree!  *HI*

unfortunately i must agree with naylord, some nerve on this chicken... oops.. fellow  :rant:

What are you doing here?? *xxx*

PS: I will be back tom

Told you so *hihi*

*rose*

Yes I do... I like this statistics... Who told you that all wars that finished with low score were easy ones?

I remember our first war with ERLIG that finished 55:56... It cost us 2 sleepless nights.... It was our second war this era and we were fighting with light units... But it was a really hard war...and only by luck we won it..
A war that finished 8:0 is war with Pride.... This alliance asked us about cease fire and we granted them this... Without any conditions.... As you remember, when in our first war against X_LEGIONE I asked about cease fire from you, because our alliance lost few members that time, I got an answer from aaaadddd that I will get it if I sent 2000 Paladins and 20 Trebuchets to a suicide attack on his fort... Do you think it was the nice answer from you?  This answer made me mad fighting you this era. We were asked few times about cease fire from other alliances and we granted them this without conditions and didn't fight them anymore...


There was a nice war with FANAGORIA with the score 178:173 ... As you see difference is only 5 mp.... But ask Kubrat77 how they were leading with 1 mp and only my pillage that happened 3 mins before end of war changed the score. It was a nice war and made me and Kubrat friends, because we had an intense 1 hour chat while attack was going... Kubrat's army arrived 8 mins before attack, but in another province. and distance between us is 1610 units... Do you think it was so easy to plan and do this pillage?  He sent his army to pillage me in return and only after this realized that war is finished already....

There was a war against Ragnarok that finished 57:56 that is only 1 mp difference.... This alliance was an alliance of cowards as you were.... They made few pillages and disbanded... We were lucky they forgot to lock the alliance before disbanding... we found a player who decided to help us as Trojan, but he was more that 2000 units from me and asked to attack his outer province with fort 1.... I had to do a lot of waves to him, because all our members were fighting Avengers in this time and Samy asked me to take care of that war... I cannot call this an easy win...

Yes there was a war against Dragon that finished at 2:0, but there leader contacted me and proposed to merge our 2 alliances... Yes, I didn't gain mps and war income, but we had possibility to make our alliance strong again....  

There are some alliances that prefer not to fight us. Does it mean we don't have to declare on them? I remember 2 eras ago in r2 I was playing in an alliance and when Sparta (that time Samyoboy's alliance) was declaring on us, our leader were telling us to forget about this war and concentrate on others, because nobody can beat Sparta... I didn't like this thing and was trying to fight back and next era I asked samy to take me in his alliance.

I don't like that some alliances in r4 are very passive in fighting back... But how many alliances tried to fight back X_LEGIONE?

Points and score means nothing in a war...

And again: YES! I like our statistics... And I am proud of our alliance and of all players that helped us to win these all wars.

If some alliances decided not to fight back it was only because they saw that we are a strong alliance which is too hard to beat, and not because we did something wrong...

We didn't hide behind our high points and we didn't disband our alliance... We were always active and ready to fight... And if some wars finished in an easy way for us it is not our fault, but of that alliances that didn't have courage to fight back.

for radoo:when we have declared they were in the x3 but during the war other players they are added we tell part time(iris and style)and x2 it's real
for nylrod:
the glance was x-legion has lost a war against mercenarios with a solo point to disfavor..mercenarios that him loose son...ask at ghibon... ghibon belonged to the avengerses and we wanted to return the favor...
but the war victory-avengers has not been defeated from us..hydra has forgotten the open alliance and we has discovered in this era what the horses of troy are
but it is not this the problem..the problem they are the non clear rules..today after 2 years and many ban I have understood the rule of the 6 hours and the vacation mod during a war(very complicated)
why great player as mircikako that has dominated glance it was military and general classiifcation in this era  had to make tactic a low point to win classification of the alliances??
wrong rules?
I DON'T KNOW BUT don't Change you Too much her Because The Kingdom 4 I Likes
there is always to learn..and badly that the rules in the REALM 4 don't often change her as in other REALM

good game to everybody
SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH
and see you later in another era

The one thing that I love in this discussion is that maybe now sv will belive that we are not a one man alliance  *hihi* *hihi* *hihi*

I am still not completely sure about it.... :hmmm:

Will you join the war?? Our alliance members want to join the *sos* war, but I am afraid because of you we can't for now

You people are crazy !!! I cant believe you are still trying for the alliance ranking ! I think smokers had a phenomenal era, avengers had a phenomenal era and LPS won the old-fashioned way as expected :D Now can you just put it all behind, the difference in points is too big to make in 1 week and you are missing some great fun !

We will join the fun, but I must do some math  *freak* to see if they can still go first

PS: And our era was phenomenal too, in a boring way

Well, at least you don't have to do the one-man-alliance thing anymore and can play in normal alliances like normal people.  *gamer*

It was a two-man-alliance in the second part *hihi*

ohhhh no, so you have to do it again. Andy > *gamer* The3 girlfriend > *suicide*

I won't join the Big War, because I am busy at work this time, but I cannot take just vac, because I know that won't play next era in r4 (at least the first part of era) and I am a bit sad to leave all friends that I made in r4 just now.... I want to have a relaxing game for the last few days.... May be attack few armies for some additional points.... we will see.... Our members who wanted to join the BIG WAR already did it....

well, this turned out to be a quite fun era for me :)

i had a long period (8 months) of not-playing IO (guess that makes me kinda quitter too *freak* ), and when i finally returned to my favorite time-killing amusement, i found out my old in-game acc's (and there are many of them *freak* ) are still active, so i resurrected a few of them, and decide to play in r4 too...

i was more than a month late, but i had 'round 400k gold, and tons of goldmines around me, so i thought, why don't i have some fun and see how far can i keep thing going :) after some weeks, andy_eu approached me after spying my 3 millions in main, and seeing that i tend to play the same way as he did *hihi* so i became a member of LPS...

since i was way behind others, during my first month of playing i haven't attacked much, 'cause i was rather doing my elite researches. and finally when i grew some army, and started participating in wars, andy and mircicako decided to kick me out 'cause of my ties with sv_iv from r2 where we were arranging 4 her to join PREDATORS..

and so it came to pass, that i become a Smoker *WASSUP* in the beginning there we were only a 2 member alliance, and i had to took over the leadership from sv_iv, who had a lot of work to do IRL.. we were declaring a lot of wars, and i think i lead the alliance the best i could. i joined the alliance right about the end of the AvengerIV - Smokers war, and after that we lost only 1 war (to those dam x_legione, which disbanded right after pillaging us a couple of times *black_eye* ) and we won 19 wars :hard:

so the end for me in this era looks like this: i'm the leader of the no.2 alliance, i've fought my way into top mili (hopefully i'll be able to stay there the next couple of hours :d ) and the most important thing, i got to know new friends, which is why i decided to play the next era in r4, this time from the beginning :)

*bravo* hope to see you guys all next era, and that the smokers will be active again *bravo* if they won't, look 4 PREDATORS *hihi* *freak*

Great job, stud and sv_iv, I am really glad smokers was there this era and I got to actually enter their alliance at least 5-6 times :D Thanks to you I have come to fight one of the best wars in my IO carreer against X_Legione and got to know Svetlana  *rose*  Good luck next era and keep it smoking  :evil4:

Well, I couldn't resist and logged in R4 and started to build my small empire... And was asking people if they are going to play for smokers this era... And I think, I will start a new topic in forum for this era too...

seem smokers did really well without me well done guys *bravo* *bravo* *bravo* *bravo*

good to have smokers back  *rose*
