Your killboard is a good link to start at.

You have only killed 2 militia targets ever.
Please tell me more about all the great number of Caldari you have killed?

I for one LOVE having TEST in FW - my killboard has literally never looked as good as it has in the past month!

TEST is like hard drugs. We're going to get addicted to all of these kills.

Then we're going to crash really, really hard when they leave FW to "go find something more interesting to do".

You have a funny definition of tears. I'm reminded of Game of Thrones, when Brienne of Tarth is crying before she is brought before Lady Catelyn, who was returned from the dead by R'hollor after being killed at the Red Wedding. Even though she's crying at her failure to save Sansa (who is pretending to be Littlefinger's daughter after he marries Lysa Arryn before murdering her), actually no I forgot where I was going with that.

Anyway I think we can all agree that making fun of test is just mean, like when Shae humiliated Tyrion at his trial. Remember: Tyrion killed Shae so the lesson we should learn is to not make fun of people for no reason.

So is TEST chestbeating and badposting in W&T supposed to be worse or different than the usual stuff that goes down here? Because it's actually pretty par for the course.

Don't believe me? Go through any of the TEST threads and replace TEST with Caldari and it's the exact same. For that matter, in any chestbeat thread in this subforum, you can replace any of the faction names with each other, and as long as you keep consistent ie., if you switch Gallente for Amarr, you'll also need to switch Caldari with Minmatar, you get the exact same threads.

Interesting!

This is now officially my favorite thread. Keep up Galmils, specially you Commander Rezawhatever. Your failure to comprehend what is counted as tear amuses me.

To quote Dennis Hopper, "In 200 years we've gone from 'I regret I have but one life to give for my country' to (CENSORED BY CONCORD)?"

Some days I think I'm too old for this (CENSORED BY CONCORD). And honestly, I'm not sure what the objective of the Siege of Innia even was any more.

i find the best way to tell who is winning in FW is to ignore system flipping but concentrate on our personal killboard stats

No, its not. Killboards that is. Killboards are fun. Give you a little bit to brag about here and there, but all they really are is inflated stats. You know what I am talking about. You do less than 1% damage on a kill, you dont get the killing shot, and the damn thing still winds up on your killboard isk eff %.

It isnt for any one person to dictate to EVE what THEY think FW is about. Maybe you like to stat pad your killboard, maybe others like to system flip. And yes, flipping systems can involve PVP. I havent ever seen a group of stabbed ventures flip an ihub.

I personally like looking at the raw FW stats. The kills posted here are "Final Blows" - not just killboard stats like you say. They are a better reflection of pvp activity of your corp and militia.

https://api.eveonline.com/eve/FacWarTopStats.xml.aspx

What it shows is that JUSTK, QCATS, and Black Fox Marauders have been killing lots of stuff since TEST joined FW. BFM in particular have been hitting way above their weight.

btw this list also shows that Dreddit has been getting a few final blows over the past week as well.

As a whole, Gallente militia has been roflstomping the Caldari non-stop (on a kills level), but the Caldari have been finishing more plexes (probably more farming overall).

It all depends on what you use as your baseline for success/failure. It's entirely possible for you to achieve your own victory conditions while your opponent achieves his victory conditions.

Take Operation Perseus. Now I don't know whether the Gallente's stated goals were honestly stated, propaganda, or disinformation, but I do know that the victory terms for the Caldari were clearly defined: hold and secure Innia. Gaudy numbers, green killboards, and efficiency ratings would have been worthless if accompanied by a system flip, so the defenders accepted heavy losses so long as they served the greater purpose.

Pyrrhus of Epirus may have been ambivalent about his victory at Asculum, but then again, his army wasn't made up of a bunch of immortal cybernetic demigod capsuleers.
