My comments won't carry as much weight since EMPIRE is the clan they're about to beat, so I implore those of you from the other top clans on this site: Give them their due and respect. They more than deserve it. Awesome gameplay and excellent attitudes. Well played, AoC. Hats off
Thank you... win or lose, we will take and appreciate the plaudit's.
However, the fat lady ain't singing yet... Atlantis looks to be ours (barring a disaster) and Chicago has swung our way in the last round or two, but it could just as easily swing back (voodoo dolls at the ready, over here). Unless you know something about the Hive game, that I've yet to get from our team. Finally, Solar is still looking to be in your favour.
That said, we ARE feeling a little easier than we were, this time last week.
It should also be noted that we had the easier of the starts in this battle and although we had some horrendous cubes in the first half of these crunch games, Empire have had their share of misfortune in the past few days, to balance that out.
As I say, we certainly aren't counting them chickens yet, but if we grab victory here, then it's due, in no small part, to the help and advice we received from Mike after our defeat to Empire, in 2009. Thanks guys.
Congrats to AOC! For winning you get a date with KORT! Seems like a great prize for you all!
Don't get too excited, Bruce. There are 3 games that are still undecided. The deciding factor will be if we can implement our plan for the voodoo doll raid.
