Hyperion321 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 So, Baltus posted a question in our embassy about who we thought the top 5 greatest alliance rivalries of all time are. I find this to be an interesting topic, so I thought I would share my answers and get your own personal top 5's for discussion's sake. 1. NAAC - NPO 2. NpO - TOP 3. Fark - GOONS 4. MK - NPO 5. TPF - NoR/NoV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldie Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 I'd say NpO-TOP would be number one, NAAC-NPO may have been relevant for 1/4 of CN's history, but it still was only a small amount of it. No matter how good it was, it ended far too early to be considered the best. MK-NPO is a good one. I'd move Fark-GOONS down simply because while they have the history, they really haven't opposed each other since GW2 if I am not mistaken, and therefore how much of a rivalry can it be? As for TPF-NoR/NoV, I don't really see anything resembling a rivalry there, maybe an intense dislike. The last time I saw a thread like this, I believe it was Doitzel who came in and ended it with GGA vs. Success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cataduanes Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) In a certain era and for a certain length of time perhaps ODN-NPO?, also who could forget the ICP/SWF-Nordreich/Norden Verein rivalry.

I might not like either alliance a whole lot but it's nothing like the hate we used to have back in the day for, like, FEAR or Illuminati.

[/quote] Exactly what I was going to say. Speaking OOC I still think the way that relationship ended is a bit sad, but given that ODN spent months and months trying to get Polar to like us prior to the world polarising into Orders vs PB/DH, I don't see things ever going back to the way they were before. As for the thread at hand, I'm surprised TSO vs NpO hasn't made the list yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Sincerely, stop waiting for someone else to tell you can, come and get us if you really need to. Last time I checked we were about to pass you again BTW, exactly how rebuilt would you like us? You don't have any chance ever of an element of surprise, we are ever vigilant against the snakes in the grass. Now that's a rivalry making my list as follows; 1. Polaris and TOP - It is true, there is much hate towards us from the Paradoxiods. 2. NPO and NpO - The world never really saw it, but it lingers still. 3. MK and NPO - From the distant past to the distant future so shall it be. 4. FAN and NPO - Has to be there surely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
