kongland Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 For the first time, TE membership is below 1000. Considering those dwindling numbers, even small alliances are looking not so small anymore. I see the time coming, when any alliance, which has more than 20 members, would be considered huge Let's drink to this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus, the inane backwards reasoning that people losing interest in TE is somehow worth celebrating. Well, no, I don't think so. I can find nothing worth celebrating there. I'm still hoping the regression is just a temp burn out and more nations from last round will re-join as the round goes along, but it's a desperate hope at best. It used to be that SE alliances often used TE for military practice and training, and I was also hoping that the new TE would be more attractive for that reason, and bring in more nations. Alas, that doesn't seem to be happening either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellardoor Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Well when you get rogued inside of a week of the round by *someone's* multis I could see why people wouldn't join the game. Glad I'm not the only one not celebrating though I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMuz Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 TE is rather poor for military training. It means you make a few less mistakes in SE, I suppose, but a noob bringing their whole "don't buy lvl 9 planes" experience into SE will get rather screwed. It's a similar game, played differently. Let's hope those new blocs decide to start a TE alliance. Or heck, bring back some of the old ones, like Superfriends, Gay Rollers, Duckroll, BFF. At least Fark is still keeping a few people strong in TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lennybronx Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 I think it might be due to newer alliances joining in thus taking the members from other alliances. The reality is, the more alliances there are, the shorter members each alliance will have. So maybe some day having 20 members will actually be considered a lot. I hope not though.

kongland Posted June 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 Oh guys,guys... All my sarcasm was lost, as I see. What would you expect: another "BOO-HOO - we all gonna die" post? By the look at the numbers one would think the world population is in decline and kids stopped growing up alltogether. Btw, I've asked 3 people randomly, who are playing online strategy games and not even one has heard about this game. kong is leaving the building..

Cellardoor Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Trying to figure out how to decipher what that last message is about. Looking at alliance names in a vacuum at the end of a round during the roguefest isn't a great way to go. People join and flip alliances so quickly and ghost with impunity.
