There we go. Reading comprehension just isn't a strong suite for a lot of people.

I meant nothing against Faceless by suggesting something for the 'winner'. I didn't see your post about not racing this time, like I said, I'm only following this stuff sporadically. I just assumed another xpac drop = another race.
It just seemed like another good opportunity to hand out recognition to people for something gaming related. I'd much rather hand out gaming or event related medals than forum drama related medals, if that makes sense.
Cheers bro

BTW wasn't talking about you with the "reading comprehension" thing. I'm just seeing a lot of "lol Faceless lost/gave up" on boards when there wasn't a direct race, from people who I have no idea who they are ingame. It's all pretty silly. In any case, grats Amtrak on posting a really impressive clear time.- 1
I think that a lot of people are confused because you have people nonstop (in streams and tells etc) claiming that they beat Amtrak and went 1 for 1 on medals, etc etc while outside the other side of their mouth when told that is incorrect immediately say "we aren't racing".
I think most of your people still think that Amtrak somehow hacked into the servers and spawned picks manually. The funny part is a lot of them bring up the level 1 warrior trap mobs ..... which is admitting to using showeq. I absolutely don't give a shit about anyone using showeq for sure, not confirming or denying that I also use it. It's just a lot of pot calling kettles black while at the same time not understanding anything at all.

I'm a little disappointed that they (DBG) haven't come out and said "yeah we spawned these picks, sorry for making storms easier on everyone that was trying to get their flags done during the initial rush". But if they did that then they get flak from some of the Phinny/Agnarr/Coirnav for not doing it then as well, and it then gives players the reason to cry for it to be done again in the future for some zones so it's pretty much a lose/lose situation for outright admitting to doing it.
To the mystery GM/Dev (anyone that was in tranquility at the start of PoP should be able to figure it out) thanks, the race was long enough without having to spend an extra 10 hours in storms pickracing.

What happens is any large guild has people who will troll on streams. That's not something anyone who matters takes seriously. I saw someone taunting us last night "you won't kill Quarm" tonight" on Frankie's stream and was like...well since we're about to go to bed I'm sure we won't be either
. I don't really think that some rando on a stream represents all of Amtrak and it's probably safe to assume the same about Faceless trolls on random stream discussion channels.- 2
Oh for sure, it's just the reason the "drama" is still going is all.What happens is any large guild has people who will troll on streams. That's not something anyone who matters takes seriously.

Definitely made it more fun to experience selos vicariously, that's for sure. If everyone is just having fun at their own pace now then... that's actually a good thing
Yeah same gm most have spawned picks for deep on bonus exp weekend for amtrak and FG too.

Gms running around like fairies spawning picks on this server at all the best times/zones, But yeah I'm the delusional one. Rofl
Thanks mystery GM that popped picks of FG for us after we already killed AHR for the first time, we definitely needed that huge advantage, really gave us the edge on our competition. Oh wait it happened after we already won.

In all honestly, that gives even more proof it was DBG! Mediocrity and inconsistent incompetence, so of course it happened after.
Honestly I did not see the fg spawn. I have seen it in the deep twice once right at the start of the bonus exp on Easter weekend. But let me get thisstraight you have how many members? 100+ ? I think I read 30 people cleared vt that first clear? so your telling me there would be no reason for you to spawn picks and finish your 70 keys?
That is correct because they were completely focused on a set group and did not farm anyone else until after the first group was done.
For FG if that was a thing then Faceless would have benefited more. I was leading a large portion of the Faceless keying and did not see an extra amount of picks.
Here’s the thing, if we could do this with picks with zero consequences we would be doing it a lot more and in more lucrative areas. Storms, FG, and The Deep are not where anyone would risk a ban.
I talked to one of your officers yesterday and they said it’s still happening for you guys even with us not touching storms which is the only reason they believe us.
I would put money on DBG testing out some new pick behavior to help smooth out servers spinning up and down and until they are positive it works properly aren’t announcing anything.
