Looked simple.

Final Ownage

Nice idea, but boarding on a Utopia. Clanning in the wild's fucked now. If you're brown sticky stuff, you bring mains and get little action. If there's no mains (which there rarely is), pure clanning consists of hugging a return spot for 3 hours until one clan gets bored. There's no ability in that. SB can't do / won't do anything to try and change the community. I mentioned a few things to Slush a couple of years ago when the site started up and his mentality was that there should be little interference from the board to influence the community in any way - it was merely a canvas for people to project their views on (refer to sig). Dno if that's changed but it is his site, so I didn't argue and stopped bothering.

Yep

lol he actually paid money for that to pop up?

o dear

Was fun. Hb Ruin.

grats guys build on dis doe

hot

not our fault u got no friends!!11

Looked easy. Corp bit looked hilarious.

It doesn't matter whose idea the cap was lol. A full out is supposed to show the true strength of both clans in their entirety. Having a cap of any kind totally eliminates that aspect and it can't really be viewed as anything other than a glorified or high opt prep - or perhaps that's just personal opinion... I'm not going to go into the invitational full outs stuff because I know they're all bullbrown sticky stuff and I'm not comparing this fight to one of them. I'm comparing this to a high-option prep with a little bit of a twist. It may be bigger for SUP as they rarely participate in 60 vs 60+ preps, but for FI it's not much different to the 60 vs 60 they had vs FOE a couple of months ago.

It's still just a big prep lol. Most people will hopefully acknowledge that Fi, no matter how big of a slump or how hated by some they are right now, have an elder network of 10 years that they could tap into to reach 100 with ease. Same with CP/FOE/EOP. Yeah, they might have a timer on their forums and are probably taking the fight seriously to the extent that they want to win - but do you think that they're tapping into that elder network to win this fight? Probably not - especially considering their potential is limited to what Supremacy pull due to the cap. Lets not kid ourselves, it'll be a good fight and fun to watch/participate in. But for people to say that it's the 'changing of the guards' is silly.

If it's matched +/-5, then a clan would be cauliflower to bring invites which would just hash up their organisation. Fight looks over hyped on here. It's not some legacy crap of old against new at all, lol. It's just two clans having a big prep and the fact that there's a numbers cap on it proves that.

5-0 woop

Older members/leaders in the community are bored and really don't care about the overall pure community anymore. The novelty and the 'reward' of achieving something meaningful on the game has long gone. It's why I stopped going to trips donkeys ago.

Kinda expected more from EOP. Was fun either way.

Pretty sure I remember a 'prank' call between an MM leader and her at work or something. As well as some leaked pics.. :/

Interesting way of saying that you're getting low on leaks ;p

First P2P event in like a year, so was fun to dust off some rust. I thought we were fighting 2 MPCs, didn't expect there to be a fair few 100+s on the other team!

Only a 30 vs 30?

Only clanned since 2008 but felt that TLP was always the clan that never achieved it's potential pre EOC. More O.T A few of the older ranks in Epidemic wanted to reopen earlier this summer. I stressed I didn't want to/couldn't commit but most of the other high ranks from E v2 (the successful one) had enough free time and were in a position to give it a go. A few of the guys took it upon themselves to get in contact with ex-members via email/fb (etc) to see who would join if it did reopened and that list hit 50+ pretty easily. When those ranks then tried to re-familiarise themselves with the community by venturing back on IRC and visiting websites like this, they thought that it wouldn't have been fun and pulled the plug on the idea. I think they realised that if they were to be successful, they would have had to commit A LOT of time, and given the state of the community that would have felt more like a chore than it would have been for fun or pleasure (something that can be seen with the last version that opened in 2013).
