1m Respect in 441 Days - Inglorious Basterds

I have huge respect for any faction who built from nothing. I'm a little sorry to post this, and don't mean to diminish OP and Nub Army's massive accomplishments.

The Resolute founded by me and Vashti and some great friends, hit 1m respect in 350  [edit: 348] days. 11.5 months. 

Video for proof. It shows a jump from Dec 7th 2021 to Jan 7th 2022. You'll have to take my word for it that we pushed to 1m by about Dec 14-16. Not sure exactly which day we hit it..... then we took a break for Christmas.

(why can't I get this video to embed properly)

I believe that since the day The Resolute was founded, Jan 1, 2021 no faction formed after us has caught up to us.

You may want to ask Riot or Winter is Coming, or ODB how long it took them to hit 1m respect.

I'm not claiming we have the all time record. But I am curious. Has any other faction hit 1m respect in less than 1 year?

I never did post an achievement thread on this.

Further details. We did it with daily chaining, before ranked wars. We spent about $13b out of pocket in year 1 to finance growth. This was before ranked wars. When we had 5k unlocked, we did a 5k every Saturday, and still had daily "fun chains".

That’s awesome man! Well done 

I wasn’t sure on the ranks of fastest factions to 1m. I wonder if you’re the fastest or if there’s another mystery faction out there that’s done it faster especially with RW and chaining combined. 

Well done if this is true.

Could be other factions out there too, either way we all progress fast. IB idea has been only to grow respect through Ranked Warring, and some chaining during Halloween and Valentines. But I dont think we did much chaining other then random hits during Halloween. Valentines I dont even think we even did any chain at all. Perhaps Woke can check up on this.

Congratulations to D3, Woke and all members of the Inglorious Basterds!!!  GG all!

Congratz , Love From Core! Keep pushing until we meet and maybe your streak breaks, JK

Oh yeah wish us luck for our war since we are fighting a bunch of 8-10 year olds but our stats match a lot close so its a competitive war,

Good Luck to you and us!

Halloweek was only around 18k respect. A lot of our members were doing 100k chains elsewhere. I think we’ll beat that number this year.

Valentines we used love juice for our war we had, we didn’t have other big chains for it.

NA beat Riot, ODB and Winter is Coming.

It got quite competitive between ODB and NA.

So 350 days is the new benchmark to beat...

2m 0 losses lock it in 

Congrats!!!

You were pretty interested in the exact duration, I think. Per private chat.
D3 said "If true...." 
You can still go back to see all of the chains. https://www.torn.com/page.php?sid=factionWarfare#/chains/46442

Non-chain hits and OC respect wouldn't be there. 
We did no respect farming. (It used to be a thing to make fake walls on the map with neighbors and slut for each other for the war-respect bonus.) Respect farming was nerfed just a few months before we got started.

We got on the map in the final days before hitting 1m respect. It was the first half of December when we got our first TT, and it takes 3 days before you can get your 2nd tile. So I believe we had received less than 300 map respect in our first 1m respect. It was all chaining, some from OCs, and people doing random hits for missions or whatever.

From yata on Dec 7th, we were short 30,462 respect. 

The Resolute Achieved a chain of 6,858 over the course of 3 days, 15 hours, 26 minutes
14:54:14 - 11/12/21 to 06:20:16 - 15/12/21

You can see the chain was slow. 3 days 15 hours for 6800 hits. 
We can probably agree that the 1m respect attack probably occurred on Dec 14th. 

The faction was founded on Jan 1, 2021 at 2 seconds after new day/year. 

That's 348 days from 5k respect (factions start with 5k automatically) to 1million respect. I should have made an achievement thread. 

This was done before ranked wars. OP. You've done something amazing! Maybe nobody will chain up 1m respect in year 1 again. With ranked wars, it doesn't make sense to just chain like crazy. Members want money. We slowed down tremendously when ranked wars were released. I'm sure we'd be at 7-8m respect, or more, if not for ranked wars distracting us from fast growth..... so in my eyes, what you've done is really impressive <3

Congrats, I thought d3vl quit?

Why wouød I, now when my past old enemies are fedded one by one.

So you're a coward. I always knew it, but thanks for the confirmation. f**king loser.

You must be a retard when you can read into this as me being a coward xD

Let me tell you one thing, my balls are so big I could smack you dead with them. Now run along little chihuahua, you wont be as big as me no matter how loud you bark.

Well done guys that's extremely impressive 

Thats good number of chaining you folks done. There was no plan on setting any record in fastest growth, but im glad we got some attention and people showing other factions growth even though they beat us to 1mill. I do wonder if theres any statistics on how many hits you done to achieve 1mill respect. 

No matter what, still impressive considering you stayed under 25 members all the time

Yes. I didn't realize, at first, that this was with only 25 members. That's CRAZY!!!

I'm sure it would have been on the high end. We were mostly a bunch of green leafs, so nobody was hitting level 100s for max respect. Most factions before us did respect farming. Most after us will do ranked wars. So our respect per hit to get to 1m is probably a record low, for the last 8+ years. I don't know about older history. I think the math was different if you go back far enough.
