Nooo not yet, I need more respect irl first

You took too long.

Was in SI when the first two keeps fell...

The third fell about 2 mins later, and the forth a couple of minutes after that.

From the moment of the first two keeps going, to my arival at Excalibur, was probably more than 30 mins.

Me (and guildies) arived with a BIG alb zerg, probably over 2/3 of the Alb force in Sauvage arived together in that zerg.

If you had hit excal straight after dropping the first 4 keeps, you would have been through the doors and away before the main force of Albs was ever near excalibur.

You took too long.

:wub:

(Was lots of fun though... my first defense in alb... TY mids!)

 

[nick]

Give more raaaaaaaaaandoms!!!!!!

What relic raid? It was a Tuscaran Glacier hunt, we just got a bit lost

Was fun night. Good discipline from Mids (until Excal, but I'd LD'd before then big time) and lots of good cooperation between the different alliances. I made a few cockups with comms (sorry BO, I forgot to pick up the ball after talking to Blej on his last night - I should have chased someone else in BO after that. My bad).

We knew we'd be facing larger numbers. Got to admit, the number of Albs on the frontier was quite shocking though you've got to hand it to any realm that turns up in force like that to defend so hats off to Albs in that respect.

Yes it was on IRC, no I couldn't care less as we was expecting it - I'm sick and tired of IRC but there is no point in getting wound up about it now. No Hibs and Mids weren't cooperating - Hibs were zerging the MMGH trying to pick off Mid reinforcements and I have to say that anyone that talks about cross-realming in this particular instance is a prat.

Top quotes on thread so far from Sycho and Belo

There was a nice farming session in Surs afterwards so Mids got back a lot of the RP lost around Excal I think. Was watching AC and I'm told the number of Mids in Surs was around 20 with maybe 100 or so Alb lemmings outside. I get tired of watching smelly tin cans tramping around our frontier, it was nice to send them home and take most of their keeps.

Good spirit from Mids, good defence from Albs.

And I ***REALLY*** wish Mids would stop sticking on me all the time. I LD faster than a Summoning SM who's just taken down Isso and the TG hunt shows up

Great response by most of alb tbh, i know nothing about irc leak but if there wa yet again that sucks.

Had 3-4fg of GoP (and couple us ex GoP) members at the Green Knight and was almost done killing him when got told that there was 100mids just entered pennines, we sort of finished the guy of rather quick after that message

Instantly you hade 30 people at excally, contact with all alliances was commenced and loads turned up to the excally lag fest. Got fed up with the lag, and after keeps falling and reports of mids on their way back to sauvage we ran the 1fg keep take routine which always fun when get hibs insta and pbaoe at every keep you go too Still escaped the lag, got couple keeps back just as you hit excally which was handy.

At time of attack was 255 lvl 50's online. Take out the 50+ buffbots and the emain/pl people you had about 100 them at excally+low levels that show interest in that aspect. Cant complain at the turn out, especially with the numbers you had tbh

Didnt see how you wiped at excally as was at surs at the time but apparently you didnt scratch the door which shame. Good turn out on your front, if go by guard reports been about 240 you in frontier (also due to some cross realming information, which we had a right go at he that gave us the information as unlike popular thought many of us rather not us it, we know was 60hibs about (mainly HW as you know) ) so it was needed that both sides have large numbers to have chance, if you got through the pennines unseen you walked with the relics with them numbers, dont know if you palnned to take all keeps first or modified plan, but was interesting lag fest of a night in the end

pfft i shut up now i talk to much, bored at work is all

 

[Cathul]

lol thats more than the online population of midgard at the time.

Then whole Midgard must've been in our frontier. Combined numbers of attackers on keeps was around 180-200...

No Hibs and Mids weren't cooperating

hope you did realize how serious i was when i wrote it... poor mids :<

Well to be fair it looks like a whine with an attempt to slightly disguise it.

Its not called Waaalbion without reason

Mayb it was blabbed on irc, i dunno dont use irc, but it was being spamed 200 mids at xxxxxx keep etc over /as. With numbers like that i think albs responce was quite appriate, you took a lot of keeps very fast within a few mins of each other. With Rigante and AoD regularly RvRing in hw, its just a question of when the RR force gets spoted. As soon as that happens all the major forces within alb will know, so it hardly maters about stupid idiots over irc.

 

[xenia-]

Edlina you forgot that you got farmed yourselves too

Xen.

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

I know it was on IRC before we had actually taken a keep or before most people had moved from MPKH. However, I also know some Albs had been steamrolled by an advance force heading out so there was some legitimate word out as well - its just the IRC thing muddies the waters as usual. As I said, I'm not going to get upset over it and I don't want the IRC complaints to take over what has mostly been a whine-free thread

There was some disappointment we didn't do better at Excal but we kinda knew we would be outnumbered there before we even started the raid.

We are Mids. We will always fight. Some people's heads go down too fast, as always, but... what the hey.

Was quite funny after I got back from an LD and nobody was anywhere in sight then I bumped into rather a lot of Albs. I was on a 28K connection which means under normal conditions 3 sec to see anything maybe another 3 to react or try to cast. So with 3-4FG Albs (I think) ...lets just say I had to stand there and take it like a cheap tart, which reminds me. I miss Nico

Roo was killed by xxxx.

Laughed when saw it and wondered why it took so long before i saw your name in death message, was a hell of a lot of spam before hand and tbh i only knew half them I need to get out more. And Roo, get out more, only see you when there is RR, more of a give away then the times when Rambo spotted in Odins

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Did get some quality hugs, even if it was from some smelly tincans

Can't RvR much as I'm away from home a lot on crappy connections. Can PvE somewhat as reactions aren't such a problem most of the time.

 

[Huntingtons]

ok Roo... ill cut it into slices for you...

It wasnt a whine thread... i was playing that whining mid who would whine to the mobs if he could, and he claimed we worked with hibs... that was the essence of this brilliant and very sophisticated thread

A subtle and cunning plan. Fooled me completely.

More subtle than a wizard thats been made Professor Of Subtlety at Minas Tirith.

 

[Edlina]

Edlina you forgot that you got farmed yourselves too

Xen.

Pfft stlong lies

afaik didn't die at any time to anything but a zerg of 3fg or more, and rly dats not getting farmed!1!

When we suicided on surs we died to maybe 2-3fg only, but we were suiciding to go to bed, and there were level 10 guards there too

yes i know, thats why i had to explain it for you, just because you master the skills of the magery, doesnt mean your iq is higher than the trolls

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Yep you owned me alright. Got me completely. Your reputation as THE Alb mastermind of 2004 is assured, your fame will spread far and wide, they'll erect statues in Camelot and females irl will swoon at your feet.

In fact a letter of love and respect has been started in Mid. I'd show you it but we're still teaching the troll scribes to write and haven't got any further than "Smish..."

 

[Huntingtons]

girls...irl...?

oh... and good luck teaching them stupid trolls anything

 

[Bone_Idle]

Nooo not yet, I need more respect irl first

I respect Edlina irl tbh
