Whooaa :) me lajk relix

[Olgaline]

no one set any alarm clocks, no one logged out,

 

[Erinnizz]

Urme, id say goto sleep at about 2300 and get up 6.30 for the work
I actually got quite a laugh, logged on to make some panties in game, and saw /as Ardamel holds bg for relics...

Ahhh the joy

And 2 am a monday is hardly primetime eh?

 

[Kcinimodus]

Tbh it was 00.30 gmt those relics arrived in excal, primetime enough for most people . So no logouts? OK just wondered where suddenly 2 zergs of mids came from .

 

[Urme the Legend]

Aussie, it was Sollack that told me 02.30am I was asleep so don't know the time

And I logged in around 08.00cet to check Eramai Then I saw a /as message from Ardamel: "[Alliance] Ardamel says, We will go for excalibur when merchant pops in Beno! join my BG"
So I asked if they actually were gonna RR at that time? And the replay was yes they stole our two last relics a few hours ago. I did /relic .. cried.. did /realm laughed.. suicided ported albion.. took down 2 doors before I had to log and go to work

AND NERF FH FOR BEEING F*CKED UP!

(Runs off to buy a third account, and will name him ICANSEEYOUAUSSIE .. so Nol won't know who it is and perf me! )

 

[Aussie]

not like i give a shit about the time of raiding . it was 0:30gmt/1:30 cet when the relics when neutral and 2100 ppl on server. but lying makes me sad

 

[nol]

Does Ardamel have a job? 'cos his boss is gonna be seriously pissed at him.

 

[Erinnizz]

Ardamel is a lazy student, or was dunno about summer courses etc

 

[Titum]

well tot he albs claiming that we logged in at 6 am and did the raid. You are wrong.

We assembled a RR-force directly after the relics were taken and then continued to raid albion for 8 hours....To think that you thought you had beaten us at excalibur the first time haha

 

[Hobbes]

Been a long hard night of fighting and several entertaining courtyard fights. I watched the numbers carefully and at no time did Alb have more than 70% of the mid numbers giving them the intiative thoughout the long slog. The keeps fell steadily and we simply never had the forces to recapture them. Mids wiped once after taking two doors off Excal but we simply didnt have the numbers to hold them when they returned. I enjoyed myself though I can imagine the whole thing is fairly annoying to the 90% of players who cannot be around at these times. If only the servers would hold up these extended campaigns would be a different alternative from the emain grind but sadly with the current hardware any attempt like this at primetime is doomed to server crash :/

 

[nol]

At this point I would like paste a quote

some deffinitions for some people that may not know what exactly they mean

2 [countable usually plural] the way in which military forces are arranged in order to win a battle

I would like to stress how much I am laughing

 

[Tharion]

Go go albs, Aussie get back the Relix pleees

 

[flex]

took you 8 trough whole the night

took us 1h semi primetime


who will cba to retake first ...

 

[Flimgoblin]

guess relic raids are only for those online between midnight and 9am weekdays now...

From any realm.

To be honest I'm surprised this didn't happen much sooner after the last mid relic raid and the alb crash-raids.

 

[Marczje]

My guess is that late tonight albs will have atleast one relic back again ;p

Anyway, i cba defending either way, if we lost to germany tonight ill be pissed off, if we win ill be drinking more then is good for me

[Flimgoblin]

Background point : Strandhog !

Originally the term 'viking' defined a person who embarked on a long journey to far off lands in order to obtain riches and fame. Usually, this was done through commerce and trading, preferably through goods that are precious and easily transportable by ship - for Viking long ships are famed for their speed and agility, not their cargo space. However, in many circumstances it was sometimes preferable to plunder and pillage rather than trade. In this case one must push aside the common stereotype of the barbaric and bloodthirsty Viking. On the contrary, the Strandhog, that is to say the raid itself, is planned well in advance with any local forces evaluated and targets assigned. When the attack takes place, preferably at night, it is fast and coordinated. The Vikings rapidly seize the riches they have come for (be they goods or slaves), with planned war cries and sounds of battle to scare their enemies. In the time it takes for these latter to get together, the Viking long ships are already sailing away, their holds full of riches. The minds of the survivors are marked with the ruthless efficiency and terror of their assailants and that is why Vikings have such a reputation even today.

Stlong roleplaying Mid/Excal

(hrm sure there's meant to be something about going back to prydwen here)

 

[nol]

that's quite scary, that means that Albs took relics from mids in 10 minutes if noaim logged in at 1:20...sheesh very impressive.

 

[Flimgoblin]

2:30 am isn't really reasonable weeknight
however it was 12:30am that they were taken which is kinda... it's not primetime but it's not undefendable.

surprised there wasn't any mids patrolling their frontier.

 

[Tharion]

OMG crappy mids ALARM CLOCK RAIDERS

Can you even try and take them at an hour you get some alb-defenders?

Great fun to see some action again

 

[nol]

was it true that vikings liked to force themselves onto the the conquered male populace?

 

[anubis]

heh
labs were dealing with npcs, mids were dealing with npcs
same sh1t imo
who cares about time

 

[Urme the Legend]

FYI Albion had MORE defenders than Midgard.

 

[Gothika]

00:30 gmt 2100 people online

08:30 gmt around 600 people online

hmm

 

[Killrake]

Not our fault that the albs are to lazy to defend and logg or?

 

[Vandar]

I don't understand how Mids can get the numbers online at night to do this type of thing, I mean jez enough numbers to take down high level keeps all through the night from not one or two but from 6 different guilds

Nolby Pride, Horn of Odin, Mjollners Fury, Atreides, White Rose, Rabid Badgers

Shows how much you feel vulnerable without your str relics.

Get a life

 

[Killrake]

And it was 1600 online when albs took relics. 348 mids not anon

 

[nol]

um, because mids are in different timezone, when you're taking their relics there are sleeping, and vice versa when they're taking yours...

all the while hibs are laughing...a lot.

 

[Killrake]

Vandar u only need to have one from each guild, but u are an alb so I guess u dont know such things.

And we was 50 in BG almost the hole night, if u can count that high..so if u think that is such big number.. but I guess u dont..nm

 

[Erinnizz]

Nol, its not only the hibs whom are laughing
