Please dont take this as a whining about this month. I just thought of something that would be interesting to happen. This is mainly targeted to neps, but I guess Rivan could have a shot too.

neps is owning the game, thats no doubt. So neps, do you want a bigger challenge? I thought in one for you. Why dont you try to win a month just by yourself? Try to get 1st with your clan "neps", dump wins in multiple bots on it and try to win without any exterior help. You wouldnt lose plats since they would be all for you.

I'm just throwing up a good challenge in my opinion. I know you like to be the best. If you do this, you will definitively set the bar higher.

Have you ever read is profile?

[o] Get Top Monthly Energy and all nine Top Ten Monthly Energy spots in the same month.

I'm sure he'll do something like what you suggested at some point.

I never read his profile in detail. I guess he updates it with some frequency too, so he might have something new since the last time I checked it.

I just think some of the Eternal members need to leave the clan, like Myriad did. Its getting kinda boring you winning every month. And with neps dumping energy 9 hours a day, its almost impossible for anyone to get close.

Boring for the people that aren't winning maybe ;)

Some member leaving would make it closer, but eternal are good at recruiting to. Rivan saw that when I started playing last month I had 3h a day on my bot. He showed me a few things how the new system works helped me build one bot and now why would I leave ? They have helped me so much.

Not sure about escapism or any other clans for that matter but maybe get creative in recruiting. Try get some guys who have quit to come back for one "last" month to try take down eternal.

Anyways so far it's been a fun race and it's still game on if escapism kick it up a gear.

Neps + Rivan vs. everybody else now that would be fun.

5 of neps bots In a clan with 5 of rivans bots. That could be a very fun month. But then again why would they sacrifice an eternal loss for a one month victory Ina temporary clan?

Oh look a star.

Most of the 'best' bots clumped together in one clan, gets boring for everyone. Neps and Rivan can score more than anyone, neps is on the way to 4m energy on his own :s

Last month Nos said to:

"I hope that Escapism beats Eternal. If you fail, I'm afraid that it will kill this game."

I have this opinion too. A game is alive when there is competition.

I like to challenge the best, not to be the best every month. In bots2 I loved to challenge Rapture. They won almost all months but while I was in Boondock Saints, we got 3 monthly wins and they tasted so good.

For the people who like this game and are good players (i mean the ones who have a good knowledge of the game), it might be a good time to re-think your position relative to the game.

This game function in the basis of knowledge transfer. It doesnt require any practice, everyone can be a good player by knowing some tips from other players. This knowledge is transfered mainly between clan members. So the best way that you can help this game thrive is by teaching other players, preferably to your clan mates.

Last month I asked who in eternal wanted competition. The answer was that Rivan was desperate for it. I think other members wanted it too. I see that neps, thing and hayabassie are also very competitive. What I want to say is that without competition this game will die. You that win every month, you will be tired from this game because, I have to admit it, clicking in links is boring and a stupid thing to waste the time on.

For me, the thing that make me login everyday is the social and competitive aspect of the game. I like to discuss with other players the game's strategies, I like to know things about their countries, etc. I cant play for too long without talking with anyone and I need to have some kind of objective, a project to work on. I found all of this in Escapism: I like my teammates and I like the clan's project.

So, short story: if you like the game and dont want it to die, please do your share to keep it alive and please dont kill it instead.

This seems a bitching that eternal is unbeatable and blah blah blah. Its not just it. I mean, if Rivan or neps leave Eternal and found their own clans, they would compete between them. Ofc they wouldnt get easy plats, but after all what is a top clan plat? Is just one plat for godsake. Scorers doesnt even need trophy points! These monthly trophies are just a medal. Anyway, you can get the top10 energy plat even if your clan doesnt win.

I think that this scenario would improve the game in the long run. I refered to neps and rivan cause they are the ones with more energy now. This is valid to any other player, including myself. I never lead a clan. Maybe I should do my own thing just to teach something and ofc to learn with the experience :)

I'm sorry for the long post. But today I'm feeling a philosopher.

Last month Nos said to me*:

This game does need more competition. It will be far more fun having 4 or 5 clans going for 1st, rather than just Eternal and the occasional challenge

In bots2 rarely there was 3 clans going ftw. For example, if rapture went ftw this month, we definitively wouldnt like to lose with them...

I'm not surprised. This month turned out exactly how I knew it would. I expected these events, the natural process of an Eternal win, to unfold over 15-20 days though. Didn't know they would happen in three.

Now I miss Alan. He and his boys fought like little devils. If they had prepared for half a year like you guys, they would've been pretty formidable.

and maybe not to suggest to kick member after asking others to build a bot for them :/

But Neps we knew the team we had out would put up a fight then you became a sour bitter loser and fetched another 2 bots in is 1 not enough? and rivan then started scoring for blitz which 3 days in 475k behind what chance have we got now!

That's why we are being intelligent and saving our resources for the next time so having prepared for a couple of months no way are we gonna drain our ratio down for a month were no longer gonna win we had you until you and rivan fetched other bots in

Look like you guys didn't wanna taste defeat for the first time!

They did what they should do to win. It happens that neps and rivan are good scorers. We cant be bitching about neps and rivan scoring in more than 3 bots. I dumped several times in 5 bots at the same time, so I was scoring with 5 bots. We need to do the best we can. It happens that Eternal best is still better than ours.

But Esv our team didn't change from the word go and we got a big lead then the next time I logged in neps had two bOts then it was only today I realized that he had small Neps in too okayy yelp their really really good scorer but they must have seen defeat to do this action

But Neps we knew the team we had out would put up a fight then you became a sour bitter loser and fetched another 2 bots in is 1 not enough? and rivan then started scoring for blitz which 3 days in 475k behind what chance have we got now!

Excuse me? Me? A sour bitter loser? I'm winning. And what's wrong with having multiple bots? Have you seenyour own clan? People wanted to NC and we didn't have anyone.

What is your point exactly? All I can pull out of your post is "Eternal stop doing things that make you win and just let us win!"

Firstly, neps has 4 bots in the clan. Secondly, he added the "4th" to idle energy (he dumped on it a little to get it's EPH higher).

Also, on a final note, you do what you have to do to win, regardless. If that means logging on 100+ bots to keep people from being able to log on(yes, I've done this before in bots2), you do it. Understandable that isn't available here, but when you're good and you see others can't keep up in your own clan, you demote them and add a second of your own. I added a 2nd also. This is why we win, we do what we have to do to stay on top.

Day 1 you wasn't when you fetched the second bot in Neps then days 2 you fetched small neps in Whig is three alright people in out clan have multiple bots including me but when we had out line up on 31 of august

I think your translator is broken.

Yelp I forgot that too but our line up didn't change once nos your changed a few times anyway congrats on the win again boys

Sorry on the iPhone

Well, it wouldn't be fair for other people to be NC'd and not receive their Top Clan plats for August, would it? Although I can see how that wouldn't occur to you.

Yelp I forgot that too but our line up didn't change once nos your changed a few times

And that makes us sore losers how?

I'm saying if you kept the same line up everything would have been different

If we hadn't scored things would have been different. If I wasn't here thing would be different. If I had spent the first two days eating tofu and shawarma instead of scoring things would have been different. I still don't see your point. You want us to actually help you beat us?

Nope I'm saying our line up didn't change once how many times did your change? 3-4 times which makes a big difference

Well, I'm sorry, but we're not like your clan. We don't spend half a year planning for one month. We just take each month as it comes. Any changes to line-up happen in the first few days of the month. Not the last few days of the previous month. Or do you think people score all month only to be demoted on the 31st?

Neps you still didnt replyied to my OP :) if you did i'm sorry i dont remember...

Maybe, someday. It's so easy to just win every month now, because people just give up so easily. If there was a serious threat every month, we'd eventually burn out and have to take a month off.

Hey, if we try every month we will burn out aswell right? Its not our fault that no other clan owns dumpers...

Meh.

Well if you forced us to use our resources by using yours, it would eventually wear us both down to the point where other clans might even have a chance after so many months.

There! It's for the good of the game.

Now I miss Alan. He and his boys fought like little devils. If they had prepared for half a year like you guys, they would've been pretty formidable.

Woo.

Also, ESV, I was hoping you guys would of not "given up" so fast. Don't give up yet. There is still time, Dynasty came back pretty hard at the end of the month, which we still lost, but damn we tried. You guys need to just keep the gap within 500k or so. Don't let it get any farther, or you're fucked.

Maybe they should bring a gun next time, seems to work better.

Or they could just do the Eternal thing: be cats!

I see that and I think Acedia.

Meh.

That's because Acedia was AWESOME, also a good amount of those members are in Eternal. BLUE FTW!

BLUE FTW! for sure.

I remember when the merge happened. AoL + Dynasty. I was on vacation, checked one night the rankings and shit in the hotel lobby. All of a sudden both clans gone and Acedia was sittin first. I was like HOLY FUCK.

Honestly the coolest merge ever, hands down.

He and his boys fought like little devils. If they had prepared for half a year like you guys, they would've been pretty formidable.

Would this be a good time to refer to Alan's autoclick script? I'm not sure. Maybe it is. But maybe there's a better opportunity ahead. Sigh. Decisions decisions..

Nah, fuck it, i'm not going to.

Coolest merge for me was the formation of age of champions. We took down AoL after thy dominated for about a year and some. Those were some run times :)

Kinda like the situation is now then?
