Or at least they did. Let's not pretend Marvel doesn't own a six-speed retconvertible or anything...

Well Shield has stolen my top 2 members, Brady28 and EvilSonGoku, right after walkyourpath assured me no dedicated recruitment efforts were in place. Another dude Shamusyeah was picked up by them while waiting on my queue. I have not recruited a single member from another alliance but shield boosted itself to first place (already having the best rosters to begin with) by taking the creme de la creme from elsewhere. (Shield members, save yourselves your explanations, not interested.)

Since klingsor's not interested in an explanation, I'll just say this for others who are interested:

1. I didn't say recruitment efforts weren't in place. What I said was that we were reaching out to top tier players that we've interacted with here in the forums and played against in Elite tourneys and the like. I also said that the targeting wasn't specific to the Venoms alliance. It wasn't. We got people from all over, the vast majority of which weren't attached to an alliance at the time. They're all people we've had fun talking to and playing against in the past.

2. You can't steal a person. They decided to play with us because we play pretty hard, share good info, have fun, and don't take it all quite so seriously.

3. There's no end of great players in this game. It's doing a disservice to the other awesome players on their team, who are still totally giving us a run for our money. Venoms still has an amazing line up, along with all the alliances on the leaderboard right now. They're good people, great players, and I love interacting with them all here.

I really don't want the forums to be a place where I can't have camaraderie with all these great players, regardless of alliance. Pretty sure TheUnwiseOne was hoping this thread would be a place for some good-natured trash talk rather than a place to spit ven... ummm, anger?

So, in that spirit, I dig you all, and as a strong contender, we expect to be targeted regardless of how you feel about us. Come at as us, bros and sises! We'll see you here with smiles no matter how it turns out.

Alright Mr. walkyourpath, mr. I'm gonna be nice no matter what... Fine, I was just a little disappointed and I may have nerd raged a bit.

My issue was not with you guys being you guys, since I knew you were banding from the very beginning. My issue was with my own team, who I recruited specifically to counter you. My miscalculation was I didn't factor betrayal. I've worked pretty hard to have us at #2, and there is no doubt we would be at #1 had my roster remained intact. No issue with the original 5 members. All you guys have to do is sit there and flex your e-muscles and everyone wants to be part of the cool kids.

My issue was with my own team, and maybe with myself, because they would rather make a deal with you guys so you would not attack them on the next elite than try to defeat you directly. I want to stand in the center, surrounded by the corpses of my slain enemies, not be counting my riches back home, after a deal well struck. Call me old fashion but I like a good fight. The tournament is not over, I'm still recruiting and i will push until the last wave is cleared. Why? Because I'm Mother-fing Venom.

I like this guy. I'm in

Well they don't have Lasting Frodo in their alliance, so nyah!

And on another note, If those guys don't attack each other in the next elite tourney, that Jose_Martens guy is guaranteed to win. If they agreed that amongst each other, I don't know how any of them can earn any significant points in the end-game.

If you want to talk about evil alliances, TheOnlyHeroes has a couple of shady rosters for sure.

I wanted to check their roster out but I forgot that I'm currently taking Juggernaut headbutts to the face (it's because he loves me I swear.)

EDIT: Took a look at that Alliance, nothing seems out of the ordinary...Crashbox1993 has an impressive roster for sure.

TerranDominion has reached the top 5, we had a member add the final 7 spots to our roster today. That's loads of good karma.

On another note, did you see the Man Utd game mate?
I could barely stand to watch it

Who gives away 3 penalties in one game.It sickens me how bad we've become. STILL blame Moyes as the players didn't become tinykitty overnight. They just don't wanna play for him it seems. This season is a write off

back to the topic: i hope there will be alliances that hate each other but breeds a modern day Romeo and Juliet love story.

He gave away the wrong third penalty. The one he called wasn't a penalty, and then he missed one on Rooney after that. Just a crazy game all around.

YNWA!!

I posted this in Alliances but no one responded as of yet. In direct contrast to Evil Alliances...

One of the goals of our group (MisfitRightIn) is to thank long-time players/lurkers or just help someone in need. We have two spots that we will have as "rotating" that we'll let you in, especially if you've been recently booted by another group, and let you ride our coattails.

Currently we're top 5 and will easily claim the 100 HP, blue BP slot and 2500 iso that goes with it. With 2:30 to go, I wanted to invite those without an alliance or recently wronged to post here and we'll add you.

There's one spot right now, so fastest person or saddest story gets the gig. No catch. No hoops. No buy-in. You'll lose the spot tomorrow morning but you'll get the rewards that go with it.

On the more non-footie related side, I am surprised that there is so much drama related to the Fearless Defenders event. Seriously - do you really want BP that badly?

This is an event I'm trying to tank

Misfits are very cool people. Great luck to you in battle radiopy!

Thanks Psykopathic. Sorry you left, but hopefully you're at least latching onto an alliance that scores top 50. Would you believe that no one has responded to my request?

Unknown

I was thinking of it but I thought the random alliance I joined would be sad to lose the HP. Very cool project you guys have going on.

We don't lose any HP - it's already bought and paid for. You literally join, get the rewards when the event ends, and that's it.

Once the spot is bought, it's a sunk cost. It's not like you can shrink your alliance to get a refund of the HP you spent to expand it.

I might have to bring Bacon Shirt out of retirement on Steam and join. I'm only kidding as that would be pretty rude...though it would be neat to see Bacon Pants and Bacon Shirt face off in a death match with B4con M4gic as the official.

Not gonna say the name because I already reported the roster as fishy but he had 141 Thor, 140 Hulk, 139 BP and then a 105 x-force and 64 patch. Every single other character on their entire roster was at default level (30, 15, 6, or 1 depending on number of stars) but fully covered or close to it

Just checked again and they now have gained about 400 character levels including 2 new max 3* in the last few hours

No you're looking at it wrong. Every time the guy in position 21 unshielded he gets targeted and smacked down by the 20 of them because they have no other viable targets.

I did find it pretty interesting how so many of the forum people gravitated towards an alliance formed by a relatively new person rather than someone who's been around for forever. (If DDD or misguided ever came back and made one, I'd seriously consider ditching this alliance even though I shelled out almost 2k HP for a slot)
