Uh oh, Caldari just flipped two systems back to back.
It seems that even a blob of 17+ simply wasn't enough to provide the 2v1 odds Gallente require to win at PVP. |

I'm sure Gallente having about 3 or 4 times the active numbers has nothing to do with it.
It's difficult to defend a system with 5-8 guys against a 24 / 7 plex fleet of 40 to 60. Literally logged in at 5:00 AM randomly with 50 frogs in Pav.
Even with a coordinated Caldari defense effort, which there were at times, we were unable to stave off the endless hordes of Frogs. There are simply too many.
I'm not sure why you are so proud of yourselves. It's like the Persians boasting about being victorious over the Greeks at Thermopylae.
This.
The only reason Caldari managed to flip two systems so quickly was that it was during Russian primetime, with numerous Russian pirate corps persuaded to help even the odds against the inevitable Gallente blob. If it was US TZ, there would be 50+ Gal polesmokers looking for 'good fights'.
Also, the rampant farming of Gallente defensives by stabbed, cloaky farming alts has devalued Gal LP to the point where it's no longer as lucrative for non-militia entities to AFK 'defend' with T1 frigs. |

Then you lose the systems in a matter of days because Gallente can't blob everywhere at once...and as we all know, if Gallente can't blob, they can't fight.

If that's true, why didn't you try it BEFORE we took all the systems? Possible Reasons: 1. Lack of competitive spirit. 2. Enjoy giving up the entire warzone. 3. Wait for Gallente to achieve goal so they don't try as hard.
4. The teeming hordes of stabbed, cloaky farming alts who 'defend' the contested Gal systems for free LP once they get over 30%.
But you already knew that.
Quote:Just LOL , remind me which systems we lost? hysera and heyd .. 2 systems of UCF/REVO/old man gang and all the Russians pirates of lowsec , did'nt see many calmil in the area when the fell and i don't think calmil has something to do with this sov swap..
Probably because Gallente were blobbing with fleets of 50+ after spending hours running from even fights.
There was a Gallente blob of 17+ attempting to prevent Heyd and Hysera from being flipped, but it got completely slaughtered because they didn't have the magical 2 to 1 odds Gallente need to win at PVP. |

But they were fine when you guys held the warzone. Im beginning to notice a pattern! As for squatdog, i imagine he is just trolling. He wasnt even there for any of the systems that put up a defence. All he did was sit in Ladister for the 13 day campaign keeping it stable as though that was going to stop us. Okkamon took us nearly a week to capture, numerical superiority swung from fairly even in EU tz, though they often stayed docked due to lack of FC, sometimes we would sit there plexing with 20-25 people in local as they logged in. They would be sat with equal numbers for sometimes 2 hours before making a move. Twice during Okkamon siege there were over 100 squids in 3 separate fleets during US tz compared to our 40-60 number. But ultimately their procrastination in the EU, lack of AU tz and inconsistent US tz cost them the system.
It must be wonderful to live in your fantasyland.
Heyd got blobbed with fleets of 50+ and it was hilarious watching your Ladi fleet of 20+ repeatedly zerg to Heyd every time the Russians managed to scrape together remotely even numbers.
Once the US TZ blob disbanded, the remaining Gals got completely slaughtered to the point where they ran away and Ladi was deplexed from 22% to stable. Then the blob returned and peaked at 150+ for the ihub bash.

Bad messenger :reason why no one defend ladistier could be that all was attacking it with alts. Humm guys get your story in phase .. one says lad was defended and the defenders slaughtered galmil , and the other one say no one defended Lad ... so who to believe , and i want to believe in someone :( Anyway , still want to have the number of active pilots in galmil and calmil or now that some 0.0 alliance come aboard on your side it's not relevant now? ( but it was 1 week ago) still want to fix the mechanics ? ^^
It was defended literally by two people.
Which was more than enough until Gallente started blobbing with fleets of 30+
