I know for a fact that the leadership of the other top 5 or 6 guilds want to take over IB's spot at the time. And right now most of them would give just about anything for it.
This is why it's possible. It is by no means a given.

To all your reasons: what if we're that good? You guys would give anything - but what if you don't have anything good enough to give?

And keep in mind, I'm not saying you don't have anything good enough to give. Once again, it's possible. I'm only saying why trying to say our downfall is a given is just logically retarded.

You're equating lack of domination with downfall. I don't see it that way.

I didn't mean your downfall at all Ektar, but I believe it's going to level out at the top pretty soon. And here is why it's a given in my mind. You guys have forced everyone else to combine efforts to attempt to take you down. It's the way some people have been treated or felt they have been treated. No one at the top will stay there forever, no matter how great you are. I think this server has too much skill and talent, not including strategic minds to match you. I'm just as cool with IB as the next guy, but IB has naturally forced people to attempt to take over the top spot.

It's a given in my mind that IB will lose the top spot eventually. And not saying it will be anyone who is attempting right now, but the longer the server stays up and around, the smarter players will get when dealing with the top guild/s. If you guys took most of the raid targets for another month or so, I could easily see other guilds teaming up like crazy. No matter how fast you mobilize or how good you are no one can compete against 10 times their number.

I've compared it to a game of risk, if one player is that much further ahead of the rest of the others. The weaker players team up. And in our case IB just doesn't have enough soldiers on the field to win the war against 5 times the amount. In a game like this it's just not possible. Now do I think IB could possibly stay at the top until this server goes away... yes I think it's possible. But no way in my mind, 10 wolves can kill a lion. And you guys have created a raving pack of wolves with your domination.

Lack of domination means it will level out at the top, not that you guys will be ruined as a guild and trying to kill phinny just to catch up.

Pikle, why don't you continue to suck IB's cock because I'm sure they love it. I know FB has 22 in zone before IB zoned in. The train made it drop, and your roommate Asteroid was a little late to the party. You wern't there, but I guess you are very important now, and that everyone should listen to your important facts.

I don't mean any of this in a negative manner. My opinion, which obviously doesn't matter, is that you guys will not be the number 1 guild for the entire time this server is active (unless of course it goes away now, haha, I hope not!) I think it's a given...

Perhaps, but I still feel your interpretation of things are slightly off to lead to your conclusion.

For example, I don't think it's not possible to win the war against 5 times the amount. Sure I say it's fucking hard, and it sucks people hate us so much for reasons untrue; but still possible. Just this one point makes it being "a given" a silly concept.

and yes, I don't currently consider us butting heads. We're just exchanging words, pal! Having a discussion in a rather poor manner (forum posting-conversation) but it's what we're in the middle of doin=p

haha I was just stating my opionin and you just said it. FB had 22 in the zone BEFORE IB zoned in... not sure if were talking about that. I've stated when my roommate Asteroid was there, and I ducked in personally a few times to check out the party. I didn't call for everyone to listen to me, haha. But this is getting more fun now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
