    Ichijuan is a deformation of juanichi. Juanichi is from my cat, named Juani. Her name was Juan before i realized she was a girl. Then she was renamed Juanita. But i call her Juani.

    In game im fedlex and that has been my internet alias for about 18 years. Its a combination from my two names, aLEXis and FEDerico, the 20 is because of my birthday. Yeah, i did not go the easy way.

    Im from Uruguay, little country between Argentina and Brazil.

    HotShot tourney - we pulled it off again. Down to the wire, and we snuck in top100. When I checked earlier, we were somewhere like 120 and I thought we might as well call it and focus on PVE... but then the big boys started dropping shields and making some last minute movement and I dropped shields just to join in (sorry! i don't need punisher covers - still ended top10 individually) and pushed to mid 800s. Still no where close to a certain Mr. Tonzil though i should spend more time chasing him in PVE.

    I don't know where the rank ended. Mid-90s? Green Punishers for everyone!

    Thanks for another tense PVP everyone! We got to build in some more buffer - scrapping in the 100 range is crazy competitive.

    What's this? GSBW in the Punisher event? Great...

    Welcome, Nessa! Friendly advice from one care bear to another - Your friends may try to get you to go to Pat's/Geno's... Common rookie mistake. Tell them you want to hit up Tony Luke's, then thank me later, lol.

    Hmmm....nice. I can benefit from those icon_e_smile.gif. Now that you mention it...why do all of the events always give out other covers? ie, Why doesn't the Punisher event give out Punisher covers, etc?

    Generally, they give out covers for the next event. They do this to keep people from taking an event off from time to time.

    Giving out covers for the next event is cool and I understand that. Not sure how this prevents people from taking the event off in the sense if I don't want to compete or don't need the covers not sure it matters whether they give out Punisher covers during a Punisher event or as an award for the last event.

    BTW, welcome aboard! icon_e_smile.gif.

    Why wouldn't they want us to take an event off from time to time? I mean... aw man, I need some sleep...
  • HOLY MOLY did we just win top 100? I pushed to #8 in my bracket and threw up a shield, and the alliance was around #130. I was fully expecting to get overtaken by atleast 3 people and be able to win only one Punisher cover. Then I come back and BAM three Punisher covers, YIKES!

    My PvE bracket is so soft. 20 hours of inactivity and I'm #8 in my bracket. I was expecting to drop to below #100 over the course of the week and make a surge during the weekend, but it looks like I'll be able to get a falcon cover (if not multiple) without killing myself over the weekend. The sub end times kinda suck, but I only need to suck less than the other guys in my bracket so it'll be okee.

    Having Punisher tourneys give out Punisher (likewise with any other hero) rewards would kinda suck. Giving out different rewards gives people a chance to earn some covers they're not very strong in. I don't think it would be good having a cycle of Punisher players being best equipped to win Punisher tourneys

    Any interest in GSBW Red? Isn't that her worst cover? I'm personally content with just winning the purple but if there's enough interest I'll shield.

    We got some nice results on that last pvp. We can do ok on this one too. Any GSBW cover is welcome and i'll do my best to get everyone a cover.
    I wont be able to finish the Alaska sub since it finishes while im at work, but ill rack up as many points as i can tonight.

    Wook5 is gone???

    EDIT:
    Now we're down 2 spots and still a question mark on Mr. Panduras since his vacation wasn't suppose to happen yet.
    I don't know what happened to wook5. He was an early alliance fellow (before chat) and he never had a forum presence. I don't know if he left for greener pastures, was poached, needed a break, or (heaven forbid) was sandboxed.

    He certainly delivered big points during the Asia hours.

    We did chat with him every now and then on the chatline, but not regularly. But if he's out, I don't know how to communicate with him.

    Whenever we have open slots, we always get folks who invite themselves to our alliance queue - but refer them to the forums or PM. I think we need someone who can communicate with the group regularly cause I'd hate to be in a situation where we can't reach people.

    So what do you all think? Comments? Suggestions? Friends you'd like to invite? Do we hold our Care Bear auditions now? We ought to get our roster back to full strength. I don't know if we can get everything settled in time for the Punisher PVP. We may need to "recalibrate" our expectations on that one. But we have time left on the Falcon PVE.

    Howdy Care Bears. Are you still looking for members? I'm looking to upgrade to a more active alliance and as a child of the 80's I can't help but want to join a group called the Care Bear Stare. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I play daily, and I'm usually in the top 25 of the versus events. I finished in the top 5 of the last event with around 900 points. I was all happy about it then looked at my alliance to see where we sat only to realize that I had 500 more points than the rest of my team combined. icon_e_sad.gif currently I sit at #9 with 712 points in the Army of One event so I'm hoping to become part of an alliance that actually plays the game more than once a week. I have 30 characters so far and build them up as best as possible without buying my way to success. I'm not a big fan of pay to win so I build mine up through playing. I do throw $5 a month the developers way to support them more than anything. Let me know if you have room for one more and if not, it's all good. I love the Alliance name.

    M3saia! Thanks for keeping an eye out for us. After all this alliance shakeup, it's great to still see a friendly face out here... Hope you're staying strong.

    Yep. Doesn't look like there is a 5 post rule or anything here. I replied back to your private message.

    Well, a little bit of alliance management today... wook5 disappeared? Maybe some other alliance snatched him up. If you're reading this, feel free to post on our thread to gloat.

    So we had to fill our 19th and 20th spots...

    Welcome to berkowicz (Milkrain) and RWTDBurn! Let's bring the 'stare back to this place.

    And I've GOT to get back to the PVE grind. I don't feel right if I'm any more than 5K points behind Tonzil in the main.
  • Just a couple of things. (Sorry if you read this and don't care)

    1- Thank you DD for putting this alliance together and of course everyone's contribution!

    2- I have keyboard issues in chat. It appears randomly and never stays more than 30 minutes? Makes no sense but whatever. So some weird codes...

    1 = looks like an I - sounds like aye. So I agree/concur, etc.
    9 = sounds like nein in German, meaning No. So I disagree, am not in accord.
    101 = LOL icon_e_wink.gif

    Anything else can be random.

    3- Good work all in Savage lands, at least for now, we be first. I think alot of people are intimidated by this one. DEVS? IceIX? What the hell man? Anyhow, yes I was able to bat it... Barely. How high are the new nodes going to go? 230 used to be ridiculous, but this is only helping the hardcore get ahead of the rest...

    That is all for now.

    Cheers!

    The most insulting thing is that the honor of that beat down is that it is only worth 168 points.
