NC won Emerald. 1/31

Hehe, also the pops were only like 50% nc 27% vs 23% tr by the end. Though probably more as an effect rather than a cause. Still, we win!

Now they gonna nerf my JH fo-sho.

Heh, nice work, what time of day was it though?

Eldanesh · 2004-01-31, 07:18 PM

Took this around 8:30 EST, we held it for about 2 hours.

woot woot NC!!!! they'll have to take my JH from my cold dead fingers before they nerf it

The pops were nearly even initially, but as the night wore on, the usual NC pop bonus was bolstered by TR and VS who defected, like pansies.

I'll be the one to kill you for that Jackhammer then

Oh great! This will only encourage more people to switch NC. I haven't played the game in a few weeks. Are the TR still dwindling??????

Snipefrag · 2004-01-31, 08:31 PM

Yeah.. Then i logged in.. organised a Zerg onto ISH to retake it. We owned you guys and i dont think it would be foolish to say that there is a chance we may win the day today

(TR)

Grats Sitnikov on your Cr5 !!!

I was there (TR) and it sucked we just couldn't push through. Its sad this game was at one time tactical (back in beta numbers were rather even) but now its fallen to a numbers game. Oh well just gotta push on I guess. Well pork I was about to say good job on staying on topic with your posts till your last one. and your still failing to use the edit button I see.

Why does almost everything you post not relate to the original thread...AT ALL? And why aren't you banned yet?!

True they did take over the world and that pic was taken at 8:30 EST .... AM! I was on at 3 am last night and their were no TR on. They just all attacked at 3am. not much of an accomplisment. Do it mid day and ill be impressed.

And if we do it mid-day what will be next? will we have to do it balencing on one hand using nothing but ants and looted beamers to mow/ram/pwee our enemies to death?

Let us have our victory, AM hours or not. Besides, I dont see VS/TR doing that, even in the AM.

Konried, summer of 03 - the TR accomplished world lock. You certainly didn't see a fraction of the ego trip we're seeing on the Emerald forum.

I was there with an NC alt (only play NC on Emerald) and that's not exactly true. While NC did have the numbers on both TR and VS, TR and VS pretty well commit suicide by focusing completely on Amerish where they were fighting each other and the NC was ignoring them. Once the NC had locked the rest of the world, they came to Amerish with some units scattered on each of the remaining conts. When the last TR base fell, their population fell by over 10%. They cut and ran when they'd gotten run out of Dodge. The VS and TR had fairly equal numbers to each other all night, and the VS were putting up a significantly larger fight to hold on to their bases. The TR just seemed pretty well scattered, not sure whether to try and make way into a locked NC cont or try to hold their Amerish bases as long as possible. They split their forces and felt the effect.

To say there were no TR on is just false. There were no TR on after they'd lost their bases.
