Excuses don't matter, its game on!  The Romans couldn't call a do-over because their legions were sleeping one off when Hannibal rolled them.   If you win you win, and you deserve all the credit that begets.  And if you lose it just makes you look sad if you offer excuses.   Hold your head up win or lose, and just be glad if you got in a few good licks before the end.

It's not just WvW. Today I logged directly into Lion's Arch in SBI for the first time in weeks.

I've yet to do that.  Every time I log in, it's overflow.

I have a hot tip for the JQ Euro's, to gain the most PPT, you attack the lowest points of resistance, not the highest.

After clearing out your own BL, the next logical step would be to switch to the next Borderland that has the least enemies, instead you switched to the one with the most enemies

maybe we just like fighting other people rather than just banging on undefended walls and doors, novel I know

Of course it could very well be silly tactics as well but at least fighting real people isn't as boring as banging on doors..

It seems like PRX was assigned to JQBL this week. I think they're trying to make a comeback.

SBI 135k +210 (SM)
SoS 117k +305
JQ 95k +180

I don't see the WvW presence that SBI used to have anymore during oceanic/sea timezone. We can probably fill 1 BL at most and that has been split between EB and SBI BL. The other two don't even bother. So where did everyone go? We had a blast during the BG showdown, but seems like everyone have gone in drove ever since. PS2 is part of it but it cannot impact that much IMO.

Still waiting for Epic battles, but don't seem to get any. 20 against a 40 - 50 man zerg is not fun. Props to the commanders on SBI BL trying to rally whatever man power we had to control something on the map.

can we disregard all posts concerning outmanned and not being able to fill all borderlands? Everyone has this same argument on every server and im sure its true. this pops up like once every 10-15 posts and is kinda unneeded

Apologies if my post sound like an excuses, but I am geninuely curious to why our player pop has drop from being able to fill 2.5 a few week ago to barely filling 1. This has been consistance since last week.

[notprofit]

WvW population will always drop. People get bored and stop logging on, which was the reason for the SoS event. Guilds get smaller as time passes and people find new games to play. Personally, I'm looking forward to GTA V lol.

1) Bored / Disenchanted
2) PS2 or another game
3) Waiting for WvW content changes before investing more time
4) Fractals

Take your pick man. It's the same on every server.

May want to add some people may be starting their study prep for finals, as well as term papers for college.  I know of 1 person who has finals starting in about 1 week or so.  Not saying it is the main reason, but could account for some people not playing as well.

SBI is playing like shit today, it's like everyone got all excited we had a 30k lead at one point and decided to * off and not care anymore because of that. I mean we can barely field enough to maintain presence on one map if a major guild isn't there it's really pretty sad.

Edited by Atticus, 27 November 2012 - 10:44 PM.

How about not being vocal about the others that don't show and just get out there to junk punch the other servers?  It's more of a fun time doing rather than reflecting on the "what if?"  To those who don't show, you're missin' out, to those who do, better bring proper tactics to the table.

It seems like we went all out for like 2 days and now people think that SoS cant catch up.. they can.. with ease.

Trust me I would be if I could (RL obligations) it's just a bit frustrating when you know what SBI can do and what were not doing because of apathy or indifference or something.

Well, I'm sure everyone has their reasons.  I have frustrations over it as well, but it just makes me creative in my direction.  If you really wanted an answer, it'd probably be best to hit up the SBI forums and just ask.  I'm sure you'll either get a sea of qq or ppl actually giving you legitimate answers.  Regardless, there are teams that are out there in rotations nightly still, we could care less about the score and will continue to pick apart the opposition regardless of numbers.

Good work out there to my fellow mates that are giving effort as usual.  This means all 3 servers, I'm glad we can all entertain each other.  Without each other WvW would be lame.

You call 50-60 people all [PRX] not full force?!? Not even War Machine fields anything near that on average...

We probably logged on at different times.  Other than yesterday and Friday and part of Saturday I don't see many PRX folks.  I see a lot more WM, Sent, NYS, and folks on...  Btw, it's nice that you count militias as part of PRX.  I blend into the crowd quite nicely too, but isn't part of PRX.  I should just classified the entire SB server as WM folks eh?  LOL

In any case, yesterday no queues for me at all.  I hopped around to all 4 maps with the greatest of ease.  SOS bl has a small wait.

So - you cannot come fight = RL prevents you from doing what you want.

Other people do not come to fight = apathy or indifference
