Doesnt make sense -- They dont try so the 3 week penalty isnt a deterrent for them since they are in the same boat they were before they tried anyways.
I’m only speculating. Some guilds are perfectly happy farming HoT and competing for smaller targets to complete epics. Could be they don’t know the timer, could be they just don’t want to, maybe some of them are unfamiliar with the mechanics of it, but the GMs made the decision they did based on what they felt was strong enough evidence of someone potentially cheating that they made it a new rule, so these are the ones we play with. A roll is a much lower barrier of entry than clicking for the duration of the window as well so if they do decide they want to throw their hat in the ring the opportunity is more appealing. There are all sorts of people at angry, shady, and scout after all. A few less ring 10s is t a huge deal, summer is coming, enjoy some bbq if you lose a ring 10 roll.

"Gm's believe there was cheating on click fests! THATS why they setup a random for win 3 weeks a month... and allowed clickfests to continue for 1 week a month!"

Judea I love you brother. But I have to say this sounds like a weird blinspot to me.

'anyone who wins at competition must be cheating!'

Seriously, this argument asserts that GM's are therefore supportive of cheating as long as its limited to 25% of the time?




Are these the sorts of self-congratulating confirmation biases you guys all banty about in /gu or your weird shared discords or whatever?

I'm starting to see how so many people think its perfectly fair and reasonable to use and abuse Khall and TSS efforts to create a 'golem race draft' -- (all part of Jutebox's carefuly constructed political stragey even...so give credit where credit it due lmao)

And then turn around and setup a nice neat ring war system that completely excludes TSS - doubling down to say itd be idiotic to think anyone in TSS should ever get a ring 10!

With friends like these who needs enemies!

"yeah lets agree to stuff that gets me things! Oh you want stuff too? quit being an idiot! Remeber how perfectly content you are?"

I conferred with my critical race theory professor and she said there is no I in Ngar, so we good. Hope you also meet his other characters, Kgar, Cgar, etc., etc.

Also, I must admit feeling a little blush knowing I am getting all this credit for ring war roll. Really gotta give props to server staff for that one.

Logic is hard sometimes. “No one is promoting!”

A character named “Ngar” has been promoted to guild officer by Kittens. This presumably occurred after the character name was accepted into guild membership.

Ngar is also a rep for Kittens on the UN - imo another public promotion (again, not a choice I woulda made - but hey no judgment here!).

But hey: “nO oNe iS prOmoTIng”


And since you asked. Yes, I personally believe the intent of /ran for ring 10 is to... give multiple guilds a chance at ring wars. As in more than 3.

Does TSS know you believe it’d be idiotic for any one of them to get a ring 10?
You sound a little heated over this! Sit down... take a glass of water. It’ll be ok!

Gotcha, so it was your decision to promote the handle “Ngar.”

Quick question: what benefits did you see in using the term ‘Ngar’ that ultimately outweighed your initial reservations?



I’d also like to ask, for everyone outside of kittens, isn’t it funny how suddenly everything is out of Jute’s hands now?

For all the casual guilds missing out on ring 10 - there’s absolutely nothing Jutebox can do about it.

Now that Kittens is rolling for all those ring wars without you - it’s the gms fault or something. Nothing Jute can do!

You do realize he is not the guild leader right? It would be awful embarrassing to go through all this effort to slander him on the forums without even doing the most basic of research...
