Pretty simple, I've had a shitty day and I get home and find out someone who wasnt even in the top, somehow managed to have a ship with a high enough tech level to win vs 55 million fighters, torpedoes and my ship.

Now I'm sitting here thinking, where did the money come from?

None of the other top scores seem to have went down for what that will have cost.

But congratulations, you did a good job of just pissing me off. Enjoy all of G3s money.


Total Current Loan : 84,411,790,625,663,904 C

I would be in the top if not for that. It serves it's purpose well. Nobody expects a guy with 7563 points to attack

And technically, I lost my first attack, but you didn't have any fighters left to finish me off, so I retreated and just returned with full force - you were not at the keyboard, so that was not an option to you.

Finally, I didn't do it to piss you off.
Did you honestly think nobody would ever attack you?

-Edit: And 55 million fighters is nowhere near a lot.

Giantt had a low low score because he owes a lot of debt to the Federation. He had an assload of money, probably the second most in the Galaxy.

My ship cost 45 trillion and it boast only 14 mil more figs than his.

I know how much it sucks. I scored big and found two planets with 200 million colonists combined and a crapload of credits. Then I woke up one day and found two of my planets gone, including the one I had parked on.

But I'm getting back up there. It just takes a lot of time.

Why are you playing a game like Conquest (See? It's even named Conquest) if you don't factor an important part like military into it?

-Edit: I mean, it's like playing WC3 and whining about getting attacked because you just wanted to build. o_O

So I'll just be sitting around a few days. (Don't think I'm defensless though, I had a backup plan.)

I don't know...anyone with 500 billion can shield their planet off from practically anything. Look at Friendships, my main planet. It has 10 billion figs and torps. It cost me a few hundred billion at best (like 700). Defending your planet is VERY easy,

If you don't even have 500 billion, it makes sense for you to be a snack for someone with 50 trillion.

Giant, you've won, stop lecturing people on how to defend their planets. You might be surprised to find out, but alot of these players dont have 500 billion credits.

You got lucky, the people who figured out the game early by restarting 2-4 times and transfering money all got together to be #1. Kudos.

Most of us only had one try at it and we did our best.

Enjoy my planets, I took all the money off them, but they'll produce for you anyway.

If the next game is different enough, i may play. But Ill probably stick to everquest. At least that way, nobody can ruin the game for me.

And no, I dont care about your lectures on how the game is called conquest.

Got lucky? Uh...we didn't get together because we figured out the game early (actually, we knew the basics from playing on LG for the short time it was up). If you take a look at the AA page, you'll see that every single one of us is an RPCrester (except Soldar), which is also why we're called "Arpee" (RP) Armada (The Arpee thing is an inside joke ).

We also had a thing called cooperation (something I think pretty much all alliances didn't have, except Bajah and Suchii, and only them). This was probably because we were on IRC so we could easily communicate, but eh. We tested, shared tactics, and channeled money into a single ship at one point (which set me back tremendously), because one supership > 4 medium ships.

I restarted once, and I didn't transfer money. Just left the ship to die. Dunno if it's still there, either.

And well, if you had spent just 500 million more on defenses, I wouldn't have touched your planet. I know most everyone I would even consider taking down has at least 50 billion.

I'll tell you the same I told Delphi: This is not SimBase. Stick to your EverQuest if you can't handle losing. You've got nothing to fear there.

I think what Ferrel was trying to say is, the only ones with nothing to nothing to fear are AA.

You can likely destroy any of the rest of us as whim. Lord knows my planets were no match for BM despite having over 10 million fighters and 10 million torps on them, and he took two of them with ease, and stopped out of pity.

I tried to take one back, and got splatrified. All my work was for nothing. He gave me 950 billion creds; which restored my ship to better than it was. I have 57 planets, and no where near even 100 billion, much less trillion.

Soldar said he's going around planning to kill people with impunity. You're sitting there saying "We're stronger, so we will destroy you if we want. If you don't like it, tough."

The rest of us are at the point where we only survive if you basically choose to let us. That's not terribly fun.

You missed the point. I would have never bothered anyone. You just made it your mission to wipe me out because you like to prey on others. It makes you feel big.

Well good for you. I am a sore loser, I wont deny it, but theres one thing worse then that. Someone who gloats like an ass.

I'm not gloating. In fact, I wasn't going to say a word about it till you brought it up in here (well, Mightion started it, I suppose. It could've ended at my post there, still).

It was nothing personal. Nothing at all. I chewed through everything from 15-300 that day, and today I went through 300-1000, sparing only Mightion and planets that contained the owner of the planet. It was nothing personal at all, and I wasn't planning on bringing up the subject, because you were just another one that went down. You just happened to have more money.

The fact that you suck at a PvP game entitles you to be left alone...how? WE do not play this game as SimBase. Maybe you do, but then you missed a big part of the game, and then we're going to chew you like gum, steal your money and move on to the next person that forgot that yes, military does in fact exist in this game! Because guess what? This game is not about sitting in a circle with bare feet singing happy songs. Ho ho.

And if you're not in an alliance, then that's your problem (unless you were one of the guys I booted from AA - which I am sincerely sorry for since we ended up dominating the game anyway, so it was meaningless).
