A big thank you to everyone in BR. You guys are amazing and I definitely couldn`t have lasted a week without your support and encouragement. Special thanks to Kaneda and nedflanders for keeping those upper ranks cleared for the entire week, that was a show of pure dominance! Thank you to DrunkenMasters for awesome leadership. Thanks to Archaeoptyrex and RipVanWingnut for playing major roles in the defense too. Oh, and to Deil for returning to us in the midst of this galactic crisis.
That`s it for now (until the next UW?), I hope I didn`t miss anyone or anything. Peace out!

I read the forums and although didn`t get DPed yet I decided to let it rip. Honestly I expected this UW to be well opposed, but the result was probably more about good defense than anything on the offensive side.

As promised here are some stats:
Top hitters during 48h, and damage done:
Gold=Feanor, 20456999 PR
Silver=calypso, 13651010 PR
Bronze=starseeker, 9765261 PR

Top hitters afterwards:
Gold=labratmaze2, 26962732 PR
Silver=Wrecked, 20093923 PR
Bronze=YATYAS, 4859730 PR

Overall:
Gold=labratmaze2
Silver=Wrecked
Bronze=Feanor

I have to agree with HB: Kaneda and Ned were very clutch, and definitely saved me a lot of my fleet. I`m trying to look at some stats right now, will post up a proper thanks afterwards.

I`m still certainly going to try to prevent them so that people actually start joining Ultra again :P

That`s the attitude! You guys could learn a thing or two from islander

Oh, Posterus plays Ultra, Just under a different name.
I just about always get enslaved these days before Terran or Miner UW`s :P Probably my fault as I definitely helped pay for it via tribute, but mostly I don`t think anyone is gonna waste arti`s on another random BR UW. It`s not a challenge to get one off and so many go off I don`t think most of the remaining empires care much. I certainly would have made some good hits had I been able to attack him and had a chance to fuse my BTC`s, (Didn`t expect it this early) but I wouldn`t have risked my empire or anything serious to stop him - It`s just not worth it when he blows BR loses power.

Feanor...
With global warming why would anyone be shoveling snow instead of fighting the UW?

He says with a grin as he watches video of snowball fights in Texas and Florida yesterday.

Whoops! With YATYAS` hit, that`s 18 or 32 hit. Gratz to YATYAS, who accounts for 7 of the 32 hits, or almost 25%.

I also had no BTCs. Sorry we suck so bad compared to you, Posterus!

Of course, since you don`t play on Ultra, I didn`t see any hits from you.

Posterus, I don`t see a single whine on this thread, so stop throwing rocks, plz.

Rather than your pie-in-the-sky simulation and conclusions, let`s do a bit of sober behindysis:

First, while the rest of us were sleeping, UrbanSprawl took full advantage of the rambling Space Well event to fleet up heavily during the +60% periods. On the way, he enslaved his biggest potential opponent. As the UW began, his fed mates took out empires that had begun fleeting up.

There were 10 empires who opposed the UW with actual hits. They accounted for a total of 31 hits. Of those 10, 3 empires acxed for 17 of the 31 hits, or over 50% of the attacks. All three of those empires were starting from base.

The UW succeeded because of good planning and lack of organized opposition, not lack of Guards with paids and arties.

Kudos to UrbanSprawl and BR.

I just wonder why the rest of the server didnt oppose. Were they bought off, were they all shovelling snow, or is a UW just not as big a deal any more?
