The Zigur Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 Why lock yourself in the bathroom when you can show your friends and family how awesome you are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mogar Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 The past page probably has proven why CN is not usually discussed to IRL people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabcat Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 I've told plenty of friends I play it. All ask the same question. Why? Â It's hard to explain to people that the game itself is little more than a spreadsheet and the fun is in building a persona and dealing with a load of other people who've made up a persona and this makes it better than Farmville. No one believes me. I guess as apart from a 2 year break when I built a boat I've played it for 8 years I'm hooked though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingzog Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 Setting an alarm to get up early every single morning, and locking yourself in the bathroom with occasional "grunting" sounds might give a somewhat different impression.... Yes especially if your significant other hears celebratory sounds  Or laughter.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enderland Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 Agreed. I no longer stay up or wake up for update. I do it on my phone in my car by myself before work haha. Â Â This could be really taken out of context, that's for sure. Â Â Be proud of the nerdiness, thats what makes it special. I always end up laughing whenever I try to explain the game to someone XD Â It normally goes like, "yeah I play this online game. It's actually really lame - especially after I built an Excel simulator to perfectly replicate the game. I don't know why I even have a nation still."

SarahPalin Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 Nah, that's actually fairly typical UPN at war numbers I don't think they or their friends care much for the game. That's why their numbers are low. If they cared they would be higher. Maybe you guys can do something after the war with them to get them to care more about the game. Maybe teach them some of the things you've studied/tested about the games mechanics and befriend them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prodigal Moon Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 Looking at these stats, the funny thing that jumps out to me is just how consistently the attacking side is the one doing the most damage, sometimes at a 2:1 ratio. This holds true whether you're in the stronger coalition or the weaker one, or the stronger AA or the weaker one, or whether people talk shit about you as being a bad alliance or not.

This holds true whether you're in the stronger coalition or the weaker one, or the stronger AA or the weaker one, or whether people talk !@#$ about you as being a bad alliance or not. A combination of downdeclares (which is usual) plus some targets being left without support for several days, probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daenerys Targaryen Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 All i see here is the losing coalition posting stats of themselves getting rolled. I thought propaganda was to make the enemy look bad ( even if its lies), not better. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
