I feel like i bought a ticket to see Tyson fight Holyfield,

and all i see is Holyfield getting both his ears bitten off

in the first round. I almost feel sorry for the # 2ond losing team.

Did anyone expect more then this ?

One issue is money.
Early this morning, my time. Seamen began targeting five or more of our newbie inactives. Killing, reviving, killing—repeatedly. Farming points.
If we could kick inactives this wouldn’t be an issue. Some of us don’t have the cash to use this strategy.

Disagree but it’s a strategy being used. Check the graph on defends.

How is VS doing that bad? Last time I checked they had more hitters. It should be much closer.

I'll f**king have you, ****

If only someone had offered to help them out...

RadicalFanatic [1483140]22 Sep 2020, 19:15 TCT · #6

Problem i saw with vs was with there list, not so much the inactive part but the fact there are so many many good targets to hit in vs, I could do 25 man chains without leaving the vs page which would be extremely difficult with other teams. I always knew that vs would loose in the end they did very well to get to #2 spot I saw vs as a ticket farm tbh.

Hard to fight with seamen in your eyes

Wait, why didn't they take that offer? That still probably wasn't enough to save them seeing as Sea Men is MUCH stronger than VS.

I guess they can say they didn't backstab anyone now but aren't you supposed to be winning it for your team? At least go for your only shot of winning it.

What's the alternative?

VS and MH flip on SM
Zero SM with the help of MH
MH gets zeroed by SM
MH loses every push versus SM
SM loses some lives while they climb back up to VS
VS still loses but now they actually look like clowns

Better to 1v1 with dignity, your heavy hitters had us scrambling for the first few hours.

RedRocket_Vel [2162958] 22 Sep 2020, 19:27 TCT · #11

Yeah we offered multiple times to assist them. Honestly they could have had the #1 spot but they wanted this 1v1 that they aren't even trying to win. Super weird.

VS came at us hard on our night shift and took the lead right when MH went out. Was still close when I went to bed. Looked like it was going to be a heavyweight brawl when it first kicked off!

In the end Seamen are still standing

Just give credits to seamen!

Awesome team when we're rock bottom and fighting for life's! And a superb team when we're fighting 1v1.

But the fight is not over yet! We're ready for whatever comes our way!

I expected more from Murder Hornets, such a shame

Spike [1968698] 22 Sep 2020, 19:40 TCT · #16

Only one team was allowed to give hard-ons, sorry.

WhackadillyWoo [1770454] 22 Sep 2020, 19:42 TCT · #17

To anybody that says VS aren't trying, you should've seen them during that first couple hours, SM only had 2 pages (barely) out of hosp.

Krastinov [1542326] 22 Sep 2020, 19:43 TCT · #18

Yeah i understand u, but hey ur gonna get 1 token more for the extra effort.

A_Mean_Person [1631303] 22 Sep 2020, 19:45 TCT · #19

I too expected more. Dont get me wrong i always though we would win the 1 vs 1, but i was expecting a close fight and those 1k ticket margin we had to be crutial to sim looking at the numbers of the atacks made...

When they pushed i knew we could push back soon after and re take the lead till the end, but i expected it to then even out at a 1 or 2k ticket margin... Instead it was kind of a landslide...

Unlock [2065830] 22 Sep 2020, 19:49 TCT · #20

im not sure they would lose every tick, but even if so you couldn't come stacked to the 1v1 and we could hold all the tickets, put us in much better position to win this.

idk about dignity, i wanted that 1st place merit XD
Anyway, what is done is done. i had a great time in VS, we all did our best :)
