I am simply explaining why I think fleets which merc are the lowest of the low.

I have already conceded we didn't play the best we have ever played, but there are a lot
of factors to HA.

@ splid
More excuses for the ridiculous which made the fleet Jedi: Two tiles

I guess we will just have to count that as a difference of opinion then.

I count it as the lowest of the low to recruit people solely for HAs, and we have
destroyed fleets for doing it. FG, Poof, Epidemic, Gone, Bunnies, Goodbye.

We are never going to agree on this point, but as far as I am concerned, you wear a fleet
tag with pride, and you wear only that tag. I don't go around asking Regalia, or TT, or
any other fleet to play for us because they haven't earnt our tag, nor would I want them
to disrespect their own.

But, I guess fleets mean less and less to people these days considering most fleets win
nothing and are consigned to the scrap heap within a few years...

I will concede we weren't at our best, but at the end of the day, spying, smoke and
mercing played as much of a part as that.

@Fara

I would feel it is unfair on our members for them to miss a spot in a room for it, if that
makes sense. I shall enjoy watching your video's to further analyse what went wrong.

As I've said before, we lost due to our poor BB play and poor organisation. Sure, the
Spy and Smoke stuff isn't nice, but regardless, I want to be mature about this and say
GG.

@ splid

Why do I participate in HA's outside of Blacksun? Well a couple of reasons if you were to ask.

First, the HA game mechanic for all it's flaws is highly enjoyable. Personally I've
probably taken part in 100+ HA's in my entire NF playtime. With probably half being for BS.

Secondly, HA's and epecially Harbour Tiles used to be a rare event that only a select few
could see and take part in. So I guess like alot of people I took to streaming the battles
for all to see and then later recording and uploading to youtube for the greater
population to watch.

Third - I'm 99% unbiased during HA's, whatever fleet wants to lend me an a/c to
participate I'am most grateful to. If Jedi offered me a spot during their next HA I would
love to help and record from your point of view. But not every fleet is as welcoming as AH
or Brasil etc etc and I respect fleets rights to say no.


Thats about it :)

Ah do not distrust fara

I was told by Sindher after HA Fara.

Regardless, I said that the main fault was our poor BB play and our poor organisation,
we wouldn't have won that even with the spy and the smoke issues.

I've tried to be mature and say GG, but I get flamed for it? Pity.

WTB Merc'ing rights for any flota.

So, if the spy speaks spanish, he's not Michael Westen T_T


EDIT:
About say or not say GG, it depends on each one.

The thing that at least for me was bad, is some people saying that we won cause of smokes
and/or spies.

We used smoke? Yes, and you too.

We had spy/spies? I think we didn't.
You heard one guy talking in spanish in your TS, I don't know; but also I don't know any
turkish guy of our fleet who speaks spanish, we have to talk with them in english, so I
really don't believe you had the only turkish guy who speaks spanish in your fleet.
And, in case that's real, I will speak for me, and I was playing with the turkish guys, I
did not have any notice about anything you were doing during the HA.

Server politics are oh so interesting.

Forgive us for being beyond our own material fleets as we on MO like to actually enjoy the
game once in a while and have healthy relations with other fleets. Besides without people
like Fara, doing livestream recordings, these forums would be much less interesting ^^
