Battle for Strand of the Ancients - Daily Battleground 12/18/09

Today the daily battleground was Strand of the Ancients and as usual it took 2 to get a win. I fought them on Wranngar.

The first battle started off really unbalanced, it was 6 Alliance against 15 Horde. Basically they were waiting for us when we got off the boat, killed us, and then farmed kills at the only graveyard. When I got in it said the battle was going to end in 4 minutes because there were not enough players, then it said it was going to end in 5 minutes, then it went back to 4 minutes.... Anyway by the time we had enough people to fight our way out of the graveyard we had less than 2 minutes to complete our objective. Needless to say we didn't. A lot of the battlegrounds I fight in start off very unbalanced in the Horde's favor, I believe this is something Blizzard does intentionally so the Horde can win once in awhile. 3 or 4 to one is perfect odds for the Horde, they can actually kill someone that way. The funny thing about that first battle is it ended in a draw. Neither side was able to capture the Titan Portal. Doesn't say a lot for the Horde does it?

In the second battle we started off 15 to 15 so we naturally owned the battleground. We were able to get all the way to the Titan Relic and capture the Portal with ease. When it was the Horde's turn they didn't even get through the yellow gate which is the gate to the courtyard where the door to the Relic is.

That completed my daily which I turned in for 19g86s, 1241 bonus honor and 25 arena points.

Alterac Valley 12/18/09

Today was another pretty sad day for the Alliance in Alterac Valley. I don't know what people are thinking, but they obviously are not thinking about winning in AV.

The day started off bad, one loss after another, then got good for a little while when I got in with a good group. We were Blitzing. We had 13 Blitz's/wins in a row. We had a good tank and good heals and all just rushed to Drek and killed him with 4 Warmasters up. We must have been up against the same group in all of them for the most part because in the last few they had people in defending Drek. It didn't matter, we killed them too.

There was a lot of Whining during the Blitz's from the PvE'rs that just want to get their 50 kills wearing the stupid Gnome outfit but they just had to deal with it. Eventually we got thinned out enough so the PvE'rs just did their own thing and went to Galv. They were massacred, as we said they would be when we said Galv was a trap, but that was enough to cause the Blitz to fail. I will be so happy when Christmas is over in there and this stupid achievement goes away.

After that I fought in a few battles that went right back to fail. People didn't have a clue and the only one's that were happy were the PvE'rs getting their 50 kills until they died and lost their costume, then they left, which is a good thing as far as I'm concerned.

The Battle for Alterac Valley 12/17/09

A pretty sad day for the Alliance in Alterac Valley today. I fought in 26 battles on Wranngar, 9 wins and 17 losses. It was some of the worst playing I have seen in a while. The Alliance just couldn't get it together. Of course all the PvE people in there trying to do the stupid Gnome achievement didn't help either. They don't do anything, they don't want to enter into combat because they might die and lose their costume. They leave as soon as they die. The Druids won't shape shift so they are useless. I will be happy when this is over and things can get back to normal. Having the Gnome achievers in there makes a holiday weekend look good...

All in all there was just poor playing today. The people wanting to do the achievement wanted to turtle so they could get their 50 hk's and most of them did, most of them never made it farther than Dun Baldar. They wanted everyone to turtle with them, or defend Balinda, so they could get them fast and get out. More than a few of them got AFK'd out.

We tried to Blitz a few times but when 1/3 of your team is in there for the achievement, 1/3 are Galv tards and 5 or 6 never even leave the cave we didn't stand a chance. From everyone in the cave saying "straight to Drek" to actually having 5 or 6 people make it to Drek it was obvious we weren't going to Blitz. The Horde got a couple Blitz's in though. Then again the Horde know how to work together.

I am not getting many kills lately, they took a nosedive as soon as this stupid achievement became available and they probably won't pick up again until it is over. Hopefully it will end no later than Christmas day.

Isle of Conquest - Daily Battleground 12/17/09

Today my daily battleground was Isle of Conquest. I fought in a total of 3 on Wranngar, we lost 2 and won 1.

We started every battle off outnumbered by the Horde, time to hit the forums and suggest they put Tenacity in all battlegrounds going to the side with the least players and see what happens. Nothing I'm sure, it is no secret Blizzard favors the Horde.

In the first 2 battles the lack of Alliance players at the start combined with lack of cooperation caused the loss although we were in the Horde keep and working on killing their General when the Horde killed ours in the second battle. In the first battle we didn't even get inside. In the first battle we had half the Alliance team standing outside the Horde keep when there wasn't even any siege equipment there. I had to double check and make sure it wasn't IoC's holiday weekend lol.

In the last battle we worked together pretty well as a team and got the West Gate down. We piled in and went after the Horde General. We DPS'd him down pretty quick for the win, he's a cupcake compared to Drek in Alterac Valley.

I turned that in and collected my 19g86s, 1241 bonus honor and 25 arena points.

The Battle for Alterac Valley - Back on Track 12/16/09

The battle for Alterac Valley rages on and I fought in 22 tonight on Wranngar. We had 15 wins and 7 losses.

The Alliance was doing better in there tonight but there are still the people who are only in there to do the stupid Gnome achievement. They don't want to fight for fear of losing their costume and leave as soon as they die. Too bad they don't all die right out of the gate so we can get people in there who actually want to win. If I hear turtle for the achievement or defend Balinda for the achievement one more time I will puke.

We had a Blitz tonight and the Horde had one too. We tried to do more but you would be surprised how many of the Alliance can't follow a simple plan, everyone to Drek, stop for nothing. It is sad but true. My kills have really fallen off lately, not because I am fighting in there more, because people just don't want to fight, they want to get their achievement done...

The Battle for Wintergrasp 12/16/09

The battle for Wintergrasp rages on every few hours and I hit it when I am not in another battleground when it starts. Today that was only once. We were defending the keep and hung onto it for a victory.

I got the quests today and got all those done which gave me enough Stone Keeper's Shards to get the Reins of the Black War Mammoth. I wasn't sure what I was going to spend them on but figured I could do worse than that. It cost me 300 Stone Keeper's Shards so it pretty much wiped me out, but I will always get more shards going forward. This is a pretty nice battleground to fight in and I really like the siege equipment and the way the building destruct as damage is done to them.

The Battle for Arathi Basin - Daily Battleground 12/16/09

Today my daily battleground was Arathi Basin. This is another battleground the Alliance used to do real well in and now are lucky to get out of with less than a Horde 5 cap.

I blame a lot of the problems in the battlegrounds on the achievements although there are more and more people in the battlegrounds that seem to have no clue what they are doing. Probably in there for the achievements... People are more worried about getting their achievements done than they are in winning. That is why you have people starting a cap and riding away, they are working on their achievements. At least I hope that's what it is an they are not just so stupid that is the best they can do.

I fought in 3 battles on Wranngar, 2 losses and, finally, a win.

It was the same old story in there, people not defending nodes, people going off in ones and twos to try and cap another node, people fighting in the roads instead of anywhere where it matters, it is sad the Alliance went from doing so good in there to doing so bad. In every battle I was in we had at least 3 nodes at one time, and the battleground leader and others were calling out to just defend what we had, but no one listens and we lost the nodes due to no defense.

I finally got this daily done and hope I don't see if again for awhile. It is AB's holiday weekend this weekend and if it comes up during that I am not even going to take it. I turned this in for 19g86s, 1241 bonus honor and 25 arena points.

The Battle for Alterac Valley - Not the best of days for the Alliance 12/15/09

I fought in 27 battles for Alterac Valley tonight on Wranngar, 14 wins and 13 losses. It was not the best day for the Alliance in there today.

I hate battleground achievements, they really screw up the battleground. The one everyone is working on now is With a Little Helper from My Friends. This is where you use a machine, located outside most cities, and in the middle of Dalaran, to transform yourself into a Gnome Santa's Helper. If you are a Druid and you shape shift it removes it. The objective of this achievement is to get 50 honorable kills while wearing it. If you die it removes it. Well, everyone wants to turtle so they can get their 50 kills. No one wants to enter into combat and take a chance on dying and having it removed. Druids will not shape shift to fight so they are useless. I personally will not do this one. I will not go into any battleground and stand around while everyone else is fighting. I do the transformation but it gets removed as soon as I go into combat because I shift into cat form.

We had a few battles but no turtles so I didn't get a lot of kills tonight, I only got around 350. That did put me over 96,000 though so I should have my title in the next 4 or 5 days. We did The Alterac Blitz twice tonight and the Horde did it twice. The Horde are killing Vann now without waiting for towers even when they are not doing the Blitz so we lost a lot that way. Some people just will not try Drek with the towers up, they say there is not enough honor. I am not there for honor so I don't care about that, I like to win. Even though I am only in there for kills I fight every battle to win. When everyone is turtled in DB I am stealthing out and trying to get towers, I always get the Coldtooth Mine when we are turtling and I keep capping it when the Horde caps it back. I am also trying to get forward GY's so we can advance.

These people complain about a 35 minute battle. They should have been there in the old days when there were no reinforcements and the only way you won was by killing the opponents General, those battles could last for days. I have been in 4-5 hour AV's myself where you could get a few thousand kills. I hear people talk about battles that lasted for days. Those were the good old days and I wish they were back but so many people complained, they put in the reinforcements. Now a 40 minute battle is long.

Warsong Gulch - Daily Battleground 12/15/09

Warsong Gulch was my daily battleground today. I fought in 5 battles on Wranngar, all losses. The Alliance truly have no clue whatsoever how to fight in WSG, it is sad...

We lost 4 of the battles horribly, 3 of them we never even capped a flag, everyone was too busy fighting in the middle which accomplishes nothing. The last one was close for a little while. I tried to run the flag in all of them, but there was no flag support in the first 4 so I never even made it into our base with the Horde flag. In one of those battles I was telling people there were 5 defending the Horde flag in their flag room, I needed some help. Everyone was fighting in the middle and no one wanted to come into the flag room and help clear it out. I had a total of 6 returns in the 5 battles I was in but it did no good, no one else was doing anything so it was all for nothing.

In the last battle I was in there were 3 of us who knew what we were doing. Me, a Hunter and a Priest. I capped the flag 2 times and had 2 returns in that one. A couple other people had returns. But when we had 2 flags capped, the Horde had none, the Horde decided it was time to get serious and the three of us could no longer carry the whole group. The Horde ended up winning that one with a 3 cap.

The leader of that battle was telling the Hunter that was supporting me when I was carrying the flag, when he called the other players retards that had no clue what they were doing, that he wasn't pulling his weight because he had 8 deaths and 0 kills. The BG leader had 7 killing blows he was bragging about. Obviously the BG leader had no clue because WSG is not about kills, it is about capping the Horde flag and defending our flag. The BG leader had no caps and no returns. I would say he was the one that failed in that battle. I guess I wasn't pulling my weight in that one either, I had 0 killing blows, 6 deaths, 2 caps and 2 returns. Maybe I just don't know how to fight in WSG after all... I hate fighting in WSG and that is why. I did a post earlier about fighting to win in WSG, you can read it here.

I might try to complete this tomorrow but with any luck I will get on after the daily's roll over and I can drop it.

How to Fight to Win in Warsong Gulch

I am posting this because it has become more and more obvious that Alliance have no clue how to fight in WSG. It is actually very simple to win in WSG if you have a clue what you are doing. Unfortunately most people do not have a clue what they are doing...

Lets go over the objectives first. The main objective in WSG is to capture the enemy flag while keeping the enemy from capturing your flag. This is not done by fighting in the middle. This is not done by giving your flag carrier no support. Your flag carrier should not be on their own, they should have at least one healer and one DPS supporting them the entire time they have the flag. When the enemy has your flag everyone that is not supporting the flag carrier should be trying to get it back. This is not done by fighting in the middle unless the enemy flag carrier is in the middle, then you fight the flag carrier.

Is anyone starting to see the common theme here? NOTHING is accomplished by fighting in the middle unless your flag is there, and support your flag carrier.

The most common places for the enemy to take your flag for safekeeping, when you also have their flag, is their roof, their graveyard or their flag room. Note: None of those places are located in the middle. Those are the places you should be when the enemy has your flag, not in the middle.

Ok, let's recap:

Objective 1: Capture enemy flag. Hint: It is not located in the middle.

Objective 2: Support your flag carrier. They should have at least one healer and one DPS supporting them the entire time they have the flag.

Objective 3: Do not let the enemy capture your flag. Your flag is that thing leaving a blue (or red if Horde) streak across the field, get it back. To get your flag back, kill whoever has it then right click on your flag while it is standing there, this will return it to your base.

Objective 4: DO NOT fight in the middle, this accomplishes nothing. The only person you should be fighting with in the middle is the enemy flag carrier. If the enemy flag carrier is not in the middle you shouldn't be either.

In battle after battle, that I have had the misfortune of being in, (I only fight in WSG when it is my daily battleground) we have lost because everyone is fighting in the middle. The enemy flag carrier can run right past them, they pay no attention to them, they are too busy fighting in the middle...

This is not rocket science yet so many people can not get it right...

The Battle for Alterac Valley 12/14/09

The battle for Alterac Valley rages on. Today I fought in 22 Battles on Wranngar. We had 14 wins and 8 losses. We managed to pull off one "The Alterac Blitz". We got that one in just under the wire, when I looked at the score card it said 7 minutes so we must have had about a second to spare. Unless it is actually 8 minutes on the score card because you are in there for 2 minutes before the gate opens, I am not sure about that.

We had one really good battle. The Horde tried to turtle and it backfired on them as it often does lately. That created a prolonged battle around the Iceblood Graveyard area ending in a battle we won by 16 reinforcements. Talk about close. In that battle we were having the usual problems with people not guarding stuff. I was in Tower Point twice and called out for more help because there were only 2 of us in there. There were people I could see at IBGY, and 6 or 7 people rode by but no one stopped... People were saying "defend TP and we got it" but no one was willing to actually do it I guess. Anyway a Ret Pally, is there anything more pathetic than a Ret Pally? If there is I haven't seen it. This Ret Pally comes in along with a Resto Druid and the rest is history. They killed the person with me so I switched to bear form and called out for help again. No one came... Anyway there was no way I was going to win as the Pally was healing itself and the Druid was healing it too. After a pretty long fight they killed me. People seemed to be pretty disappointed we lost TP and I told them if they didn't want to come help guard it when we had it then STFU. After that was the long battle and the eventual close win.

They have a new achievement in AV this year, With a Little Helper from My Friends. I don't know where they come up with this crap but that's all anyone wanted to do. You need to get 50 kills while transformed into Santa's helper. Everyone wanted to turtle. I told them to turtle on their own time, I was there to win. I can't do this quest, no Druid can unless they just want to hang around and not do anything. When you shape shift you lose the buff. I don't know of any Druid that can fight in their spec without shape shifting. A caster has to shift into Moonkin form, a Feral has to shift into cat or bear form and and Resto has to shift into a tree. This achievement is unfair to Druids and I think it is time for a revolt. Anyway the battleground was full of Gnomes in red costumes for this one. I guess that will go on until Christmas.

The Battle for Isle of Conquest - Daily Battleground 12/14/09

Today my daily battleground was Isle of Conquest. I did it on Wranngar and we won the 3rd one I was in.

This is the newest battleground but I am getting familiar with it. This is a pretty nice battleground and well set up. There are objectives, the Quarry and Refinery, that you can capture to increase your resources and other nodes, Docks, Hangar, Workshop, you can secure to make siege equipment and get other objectives like the Airship.

We won the 3rd battle I was in by killing the Horde General. We took down the west gate to get inside their keep then went up and took the General down. He is pretty easy, especially compared to Drek'Thar in Alterac Valley. In one of the battles I got inside the Horde keep by using a launcher to launch myself over the wall. I had never done that before and got an achievement for it.

Alterac Valley 12/13/09

I fought in 15 battles in Alterac Valley on Wranngar tonight, 10 wins and 5 losses.

Remember me saying that there are certain times to fight in certain battlegrounds and certain times not to? Well we started off really well, we got 9 of the 10 wins in a row. Then we had 2 losses, a win and 3 losses. You could see the quality of the people change. We went from most of the group following some kind of plan to people wanting to farm kills. The funny part about that, and I mean funny in a sickeningly stupid way, is that they ended up getting farmed. They wanted kills because they didn't have any. If you have really low kills what does that mean? No experience. What does no experience equal? The Horde farming you... I am assuming school is out for the holidays because it has been bad in all the battlegrounds lately at certain times.

We did have some good battles in the first 9 though, we had a few where the Horde wanted to turtle and we pounded them all the way back to Frostwolf Keep then took that away from them so they were rezzing in their cave, then killed their General. Good times.

In all but one of the losses we ended up with the Horde forcing us back into Dun Baldar. We never ended up rezzing in the cave though and they won those on reinforcements. Lack of experienced players and starting off outnumbered 2 to 1 was the problem there. In the other one they just killed our General for the win before we could kill theirs. I got over 800 kills tonight so I am right on track for my achievement, 100000 Honorable Kills. I have less than 5,000 to go.

Eye of the Storm - Daily Battleground 12/13/09

Today my daily battleground was Eye of the Storm. I fought in 7 battles, all losses, on Wranngar before I gave up. The quality of players was the worst I have ever seen. I am not talking gear, I am talking experience.

In over half the battles more than half our team came off the rock and went straight to the flag. That tells me they have no experience in EoS. What's worse, they don't listen either so they are not going to get any better. It is sad, it is not a hard battleground to win in, it just takes a little common sense which, unfortunately, these people do not have.

How hard is it to understand that towers win in EoS, not the flag. Flagtards have ruined that battleground. If you take, defend, and hold 3 towers you will win. You don't even need to touch the flag if you hold 3 towers throughout the entire battle. Apparently we can not do that. What the Alliance does is leave nodes unguarded so they can try to get the flag. Or they will leave one person on a node and tell them to call incoming and not come when they do...

There was one person whining up a storm in there today because she said the Horde were dominating that battleground with pre-mades. Where she was getting that I don't know, because all the battles I was in with her we were not against pre-mades, almost everyone was playing like it was their first time in EoS. I was pointing out what we were doing wrong that was making us lose but she refused to listen to it, it was "the Horde pre-mades"... It wasn't leaving nodes completely unguarded, it wasn't 9 people going after the flag when we only had one node, it wasn't people fighting on the roads, which accomplishes nothing, it was "the Horde pre-mades" that was causing us to lose. All 7 of the losses ended in Horde 4 caps with us rezzing on the rock, I never saw anything like it. That was the mentality in there today. I finally gave up because it was obvious we were not going to win one with those people. I might try again early tomorrow and see if that group is any better.

Strand of the Ancients - Daily Battleground 12/12/09

Strand of the Ancients was my daily battleground today, I fought in 2 on Wranngar, one win and one loss. It seems like the last few times I have done this one it has taken 2 to get it done.

In the first battle we were just outclassed I guess, the Horde made it all the way through the yellow gate, took down the door to the Titan Relic and captured the portal. When it was our turn, we got the yellow gate down and that was about it. As usual the Horde were traveling in packs, the only way they can kill anything it seems, and the Alliance were running around all spread out making easy targets. There is nothing new there and if you think about it, it is surprising we win anything with that approach.

In the second battle we did a lot better. It seems the first battle is the warm up battle and in the second one we get down to business. We stormed the green gate, moved on to the red gate and so on to the yellow gate. We had that down with 3 vehicles still up and took the door to the Titan Relic down with no problem. We captured the portal and were done. Then it was the Hordes turn. They never even got the yellow gate down by the time the timer ran out, we stopped them before they got to it.

That concluded my daily which I handed in for 19g86s, 1241 bonus honor and 25 arena points.

The Battle for Alterac Valley 12/12/09

I fought in 45 battles for Alterac Valley on Wranngar today. Not all at once, I fought in some early and then a lot later on. We had 26 wins and 19 losses. The Alliance wasn't doing too bad today.

We had some really good battles, quite a few face to face with the Horde. The Horde are Blitzing a lot now, they won a lot of battles that way. They also won a few on reinforcements and so did we. That's where the face to face battles come in. I got around 1600 kills today.

We tried to Blitz a few times but the Alliance just can't pull it off lately. The main reason for that is no teamwork. We just can't get enough people to go straight to Drek from the cave. Heck, we can't even get some of the people to come out of the cave, we have to report them AFK and have them removed. But the major stumbling block is Glav, people can't ride past him. You have to do the Blitz in 6 minutes or less, so if people stop for Galv we don't have enough time. Not to mention they trickle out of Galv then start getting towers. It is really sad the Alliance can't work together. I am glad I got my Blitz out of the way last year. For awhile there we were doing the Blitz at least once a day but not anymore.

Wintergrasp 12/12/09

I only fought in one battle for Wintergrasp on Wranngar today, a loss. It was the same sad story as the other day. There were only 6 of us outside the keep, everyone else was sitting inside waiting for us to carry them I guess.

I headed right to the southeastern tower and started killing Warsong Champions to get my rank. By the time I got my rank it was all over. I said in chat, several times, get out of the keep, get some siege vehicles, and start taking down towers. No one listened. They just sat in the keep and waited for the Horde to take it down around them which they did. I don't know what's wrong with people, why we get a group like this once in awhile... I was so disgusted with that I didn't bother going into another one. I will try again tomorrow.

Server Laaaggggggggggggg 12/12/09

The lag in Alterac Valley is so bad tonight it is taking more than 2 minutes after you release before you move on to the spirit guide. Once there it can take 5 minutes or more before they notice you and rez you. It is the worst lag I have ever seen in AV and I have seen some pretty bad lag in the 2 1/2 years I have been fighting in there on Wranngar and Gomorra. When the battle is over you just stand there, you can't move and you can't leave. It says the battleground will close in 2 minutes, if only...

I am hoping the server will crash so they will reset it but it hasn't happened yet. This is not just going on in AV, it is going on in the dungeons and realm server. Being the trooper and AV addict I am I will keep plugging away.

Stormpike Perfection - 12/11/09

I finally got the achievement Stormpike Perfection on Wranngar. This is an achievement from Alterac Valley. This was actually the second time in the past month we did it but I didn't get the achievement the first time. I put a ticket in and talked to a GM who said "It might have been your add-on's". He said he would send in a report and have it investigated. I never heard anything else about it, about what I have come to expect from Blizzard service. Anyway we did it again tonight and I got it. I had the same add-on's running as last time.

To get this achievement you have to Win Alterac Valley without losing a tower or captain. You must also control all of the Horde's towers. I didn't even notice we had all our towers, Bal was still alive and we had all the Horde towers, it was a surprise when it came up and said I got it. I am glad that is out of the way, I think that is the hardest achievement to get in AV.

I fought in 19 battles tonight, 21 wins and 7 losses. The night didn't start out well, we lost most of those 7 at the start and won towards the end. I get a kick out of the quitters in AV, if it doesn't look like it is going to be a fast win, people start dropping out... They get a 15 minute debuff and half the time we go on to win in less time than that, it makes me laugh.

We had some good battles tonight and I got a lot of kills. Not the 1,000+ I have been shooting for daily but around 800. I had some really good days this week though so it will still average over 7,000 for the week. As of this post I have 92,657 HK's, I still need 7,343 to get my title, another week. I am shooting for the achievement 100000 Honorable Kills which gives you the title "of the Alliance" for Alliance or "of the Horde" if you are Horde.

We tried to do The Alterac Blitz a few times tonight, an achievement I got on 11/02/08, but failed because, once again, not everyone went to Drek. It is a big mistake going by Galv when you are trying to do the Blitz, Glav is a tard magnet. Some people CAN NOT go past Galv. Once they see Iceblood Garrison they have to stop and kill Galv. That's what happened in the Blitz's we tried tonight. Take the people that stop for Galv, add the AFK to that, and you're looking at half your team gone.

We had a couple turtles, on both the Alliance and Horde sides. We had some nice face to face battles, I love those, the kills just come pouring in. We also got wiped out of Frostwolf Keep a couple times because someone capped SHGY at the wrong time and flooded us with Horde when they rezzed at their cave... That is another mistake the Alliance is doomed to repeat time and again I guess. I had a great time in there tonight though, AV is my favorite battleground and I would rather fight a losing battle in there than a winning battle in another battleground. Of course I don't need honor or marks so that is easy to say lol. For some reason the marks are staying in the mail for 30 days since patch 3.3.0. When you reach the cap on marks they mail them to you. Usually they would be good for 24 hours then disappear out of the mail. I liked that, I never had to worry about it. Now my mailbox fills up every day and I have to go in and delete the e-mails one at a time...

Battle for Eye of the Storm - Daily Battleground - 12/11/09

Eye of the Storm was my daily battleground today and I fought in 2 on Wranngar to get it done.

I knew we were going to lose the first battle about 10 seconds into it. Over half our team came off the rock and went to the flag. Two of us went to FRR, one went to DR and the rest went to MT. We lost DR straight off, didn't get FRR because the Horde had 8 people there and then we were down to one node. We got BET for a little bit and I thought we were going after FRR from there, because a large group was heading that way from BET, but everyone went for the flag again. It went back and forth like that until we were all rezzing on the rock and it was over. Once again, too many Flagtards ruined the battle.
