    People are the factions and there people that manage to be always on the tops factions. The penalty of losing TW don't affected them.

    Bottom line, 7 way ganks negated the need for map resets. To even enjoy a 7 v 1 we will have to wait for 7 weeks into the Map reset at the earliest.


    Why would that be the case?

    Wouldnt there just need to be 8 factions on the map, to start the 7 way ball rolling? Shouldn't week 2 be good enough? (not being sarcastic here or anything, just wondering if I missed something).

    I would think a need for some very good people to save up the cash for a couple Big Notes would be more prohibitive than the map would be...ijs.

    umm did u do ur math properly? Nuff is talking about getting a 7 way gank against a SINGLE faction. And 2 weeks into the reset, Vicious will just have 2 lands of their own, in which case they can only be ganked from 2 factions. That's what Nuff is saying b:chuckle

    This.

    @Brilliance 7 way ganks doesn't mean that there used to be a limit to how many wars can be waged. I remember at the beginning of map reset in Feb there would be at least 20 or so wars going on that dragged into even afternoon Sundays.

    My thoughts about the 7 way gank...We would have to wait til 7 weeks in IF PW is going to maintain the same format for TW as we have now. That is the only vantage point from which we have to gauge it, BUT I had some other theories...

    PW MIGHT start the map with some territorries already allotted to factions based on their current base lvl...just a thought, which would mean 7 way ganks, right out of the box.....

    The change could be in how many faction wars can happen on any given night. Now, you can only get ganked by 3 on one night. That could change, maybe up to 7 on one night? hmmm interesting and would be kinda awesome to see but a real killer....

    ...and they COULD allow more than ONE bid per faction...which would create a lot of other concerns that would need to be addressed.

    One theory I have been kicking around is that instead of there being 2 factions in the instance, there can be 8, seven attacking one, or 5 attacking 2 or so on and so forth. I see this as a good way for them to utilize their, currently, non used featurs of "alliances" and such. It would also give the smaller factions the added benefit of ganging up on the larger ones and not having to field all 80 ppl themselves.

    There is a mention of Morai being utilized more for high lvl pk. That may mean a different type of TW too...I am very excited to see what emerges tomorrow. and.....Something BUGGY this way comes..rofl....

    Yes, Brill noes her math, yes she does (simple math anyways xD).

    Allow me to introduce myself, I am Brillance the Argueably-Fail Mystic of RT. I am new (playing 1 and 1/2 years almost), and my fail Mystic is my first leveled char. I have a few more ranging from lvl 5 to lvl 30.

    Never owned a faction in PW, never was an officer of a faction in PW (applied once, lol), never lead a TW in PW, and only knows what she has heard and read on a few forums.

    I get it now, thanks. b:pleased
