Extra gratz to Tappi, who managed to herd the rabble repeatedly and only lost his temper once. Well, twice if you count the "ffs!" when he realised the boat back to Alb was heading towards Hib :)

That, of course, is CET. We actually only got them into Excal at 2.45 GMT, after, ahem, a few little navigational issues :)

Salute to Tappi for herding the Albs and only swearing a little when the "distraction" at Notts lasted 2 hours and took up more personnel than the main raid ;)

Also a big cheer for the mids who held Notts lord room for so long and put up such a vicious fight at the the relic keep. The place was carpetted in bodies - albs had about a 2-3fg advantage in the end and that told....

Oh and for all those that yelled at me on the way back .... the driver sits at the stern in a warship - I was just manning the ballista =) Cheers to whoever was steering and got all the stick - you got us home after a lovely scenic cruise, full credit to you :)

grats :)

1.45am's a bit dodgy, but hey it's a 24 hour game, so gj - just don't do any whining when it happens back at you :p

Was fun defending even if we failed - I think mid was struck down tonight by too many back seat drivers in bg and an ungodly amount of blame merchants, and albs seemed horribly organised for the barbarian monkey men they are ;)

Well at least albs cant ever whine about non-primetime raids anymore :touch: Nor can hibs whine about tagteaming crossrealming etc :m00:

And FYI most of Exc population live in the CET zone

(o:

LMAO..already the excuse for a "non primetime raid" gets here...it started well before "non primetime" fyi. If you lose out because of sloppiness...dont use that shitty excuse for an attack at 5am. And xrealming...dream on...the mids and hibs attacked us all over, the other day. But...we got rid of you...if you cant do the same...live with it.

About the Raid Time. The Game has changed. You can't just make a 2 hours Raid anymore. It's all about sieges. Long Sieges. So you can't just stop at 1am just because it is getting late. This Way Relics would never change the owner.

cant pin point exactly when this occasion was but i know mids has taken str relics after like 2-3 in the morning too and claiming the fight never ended..
Anyway the scenario was like this:
Albs got str relic, was a long fight but in the end we got it. The raid started at primetime but when we secured the relic(s?) the clock was around same time as this time.
Mids, retook the relics within the same night and claimed they never stopped fighting, and from what i recall it was way after most of us hade gone to bed for hours ago...
BUt since i dont know the facts for sure etc i may be wrong ofc, and pls disregard me if so...

But if im right, we just got even =P
Anyway, as you said, you can also start a raid at...was it 17:00 something? and end it 2:00 np! We did...so can you or hibs.

Noone can if you are honest say that you would abort a ongoing relic raid because its getting late....well almost noone anyway.
Starting a RR AT 2:00 is one thing...ending it at 2:00 another....
Ill stop rambling now...

Good job all on relic raid =)

hehe, note no mid is complaining here guys, and ye a raid that starts at 17:00 can end at 2-3, thats all fine, and the grats was genuine.!
just think most mids just dont wanna here it next time we do the same thing.
and yup the mid hib str rr was prime time. concerning blend that was taken at 3:30 in the morning by hibs aye, and we never got it back :/
but all in all it's been good fun imo, and i look forward to more of it.
and heath i sence such anger in you, didnt you just win 2 relics ??

I wish I could have been there :(

many albs means mucho rp...

but, my isp (BBB adsl, if you live in Sweden, don't ever fkn get that crap) has decided that my horrible connection needed to be worse...so, 30% lost packets and long disconnects (18 minutes have been the longest so far, but on the other hand, 18 minutes is also the longest time I have gone without lost packets for 2 days)

so, gj albs, and go fuck yourself, bredbandsbolaget

get real // it started primetime...

i logged in at 10-45 and the relic gates were OPEN!! now imo 10-45 with relic gates open after all the keep fights . that IS primetime.we would of had the relics home before midnight (GMT) if it wasnt for the UBR fight in lord room a noots.... and whilst we were finishing sieging notts (as a distraction) you mids re-took hild from us......

so we had to retake hild for melee gates to open. hence +1-2hrs on top of raid finishing time.

took us OVER? an hr once we picked up the relics to get em back to excal . due to relic carrier being unable to benefit from speed in water. also warship carrying relic carry force got lost (another 20-30+mins lost) then it took em 5-10 mins to figure out how to put the relics in place in excal :)


i think mids had a V good chance of fucking our raid up if u didnt straggle your force so much. lots at the keep hibs were attacking.. lots at the relic keep GATE and another load at the relic keep itself.

if u had all the mids at the actual relic . camping the gate with the other few grps. IMO u would of had a BRILL chance of messing it up so wee failed.

but we had a good fight vs mids at gate nd then another good fight at relics themselves. whereas the onus woulda been on u mids. had u ALL been in one place instead of splitting your army.


but as icebreaker said.... there is a HUGE diference to STARTING a RR at primetime and FINISHING it late....... rather than STARTING IT at 2-3am and finishing it 5-6am.

also as said in above threads.... keep raids as we all know aint the 10-20 min jobs they used to be ..... they are long drawn out battles. hence take longer. and as said relic gates were open at 10-45'ish give or take a few mins, so if all the mids went to bed AFTER they saw relic gates were open. then thats thre own fault.(unless there mommy sent em to bed :) )

will be interesting tho to see if mids do a similer raid (im sure NO alb would complain if it finished at 2-3am as long as it was STARTED primetime.
