Lokken's logbook

Episode 1, 5th April, PT 139

This logbook (located here) will be updated intermittently (by me) to show how the round is progressing politically and who indeed is winning, losing and progressing over time. Hopefully instead of rumour and recollection we can have a real track of how a round progresses.

So here we go with the state of play in day 6, at PT 139.

  1. Wolfpack 99 24.0k 14.1M 23% 6%
  2. Howling Rain 96 23.6k 12.8M 20% 4%
  3. LCH 82 20.9k 11.8M 22% 10%
  4. EXilition 59 18.6k 10.8M 33% 17%
  5. NewDawn 79 19.1k 10.2M 19% 6%

Wolfpack and LCH seem to have made impressive starts to the round, HR holding themselves 2nd on sheer weight of numbers at this stage (they have a 10k per member lower average than WP). NewDawn holding their classic position on the cusp of the top 5. Exilition are making a fantastic debut with an average far superior to any other alliance, and are top 5 with a compact memberbase.

Outside the top 5, 1up and debutants Angels sit in the top 10 with a solid average and compact memberbases. Tides of Fire would probably be quite happy with 10th and comeback kings ToT and hirr sit at 12th and 13th respective with membership below 50 each.

Hopefully i'll try and keep track of any major political moves and combat reports (this will probably be more relevant near the close of the round) but any possible help from you kids in pm on the forum or IRC would be fantastic.

Episode 2, 8th April, PT 217

Top 5 Alliances

  1. 1 WP 99 32.5k 26.4M 21% 13%
  2. 2 HR 97 30.9k 23.7M 17% 9%
  3. 3 LCH 87 28.1k 22.9M 18% 7%
  4. 4 NoS 91 25.2k 19.7M 18% 8%
  5. 5 EX 60 19.8k 19.5M 15% -4%

Day 9, PT 217.

Not much change in the top 3 except for WP starting to build a little on their lead with a spectacular night of roiding. NoS, although there on sheer weight of numbers due to being 9th on average score in the top 10 do seem to have a pretty impressive average roidcount, and with time on their side have time to fly up the rankings.

The main talking point is the conflict breaking out between Exilition and 1up (currently 6th) having both lost roids last night and looking to have hurt each other quite badly. Otherwise, ND have slipped to 7th but are recovering after a tough couple of days with a bumper recovery. Angels and ToT though 8th and 12th respectively at this stage are 2nd and 3rd in average score so far, so don't rule them out by any means.

Episode 3, 12th April, PT 302

Top 5 Alliances

  1. 1 WP 99 39.4k 41.5M 6% 4%
  2. 2 HR 97 33.8k 35.9M 7% 5%
  3. 3 LCH 88 31.2k 34.1M 5% 2%
  4. 4 EX 60 30.7k 33.7M 3% -2%
  5. 5 1up 76 24.4k 31.5M 4% -3%

WP seem to be screaming away, and on the periphery of the main conflict. HR have stabilised and seem to be establishing themselves in 2nd. And as you can see, the usual suspects 1up are in the top 5.

Talk is of a major war between 1up and its allies and LCH/Angels/Exilition, whether they are allied is open to discussion and certainly not set in stone. In the past few nights since i last spoke ND (now 8th) have been taking a battering, with 1up either doing very well or getting hit very hard indeed. Tonight however they've chipped away at EX but their major success have been on Angels, who seem to have taken a right spannering (over 18% loss on tick 304), but they're sitting in 7th, so i'm sure they can come back. NoS in 6th, VGN in 9th and ToF in 10th make up the rest of the top 10. Although outside the top 10, ToT in 11th might have a small membership but are 3rd on average score, so I wouldn't rule them out having some hand in the conflicts of round 13.
