&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;

2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;

2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:11:57 The Pink Panther (#8) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 288 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:14 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 215 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:16 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded The Pink Panther (#8) and captured 258 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

2024-12-12 01:59:45 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Forseti - God of justice and peace (#7) and captured 197 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

2024-12-12 03:10:27 Caught Red-Handed: Urg Seen Smashing Elven Queen! (#3) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 318 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:11:57 The Pink Panther (#8) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 288 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:14 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 215 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:16 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded The Pink Panther (#8) and captured 258 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;

2024-12-12 01:59:45 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Forseti - God of justice and peace (#7) and captured 197 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:11:57 The Pink Panther (#8) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 288 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:14 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 215 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:16 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded The Pink Panther (#8) and captured 258 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:59:45 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Forseti - God of justice and peace (#7) and captured 197 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

2024-12-12 03:10:27 Caught Red-Handed: Urg Seen Smashing Elven Queen! (#3) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 318 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:16 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded The Pink Panther (#8) and captured 258 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:14 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 215 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:16 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded The Pink Panther (#8) and captured 258 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:59:45 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Forseti - God of justice and peace (#7) and captured 197 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:11:57 The Pink Panther (#8) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 288 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:14 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 215 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:16 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded The Pink Panther (#8) and captured 258 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:59:45 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Forseti - God of justice and peace (#7) and captured 197 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 03:10:27 Caught Red-Handed: Urg Seen Smashing Elven Queen! (#3) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 318 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;

2024-12-12 01:59:45 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Forseti - God of justice and peace (#7) and captured 197 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:14 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 215 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:16 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded The Pink Panther (#8) and captured 258 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:59:45 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Forseti - God of justice and peace (#7) and captured 197 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:11:57 The Pink Panther (#8) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 288 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:14 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 215 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:16 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded The Pink Panther (#8) and captured 258 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:59:45 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Forseti - God of justice and peace (#7) and captured 197 land.&lt;br /&gt;

2024-12-12 03:10:27 Caught Red-Handed: Urg Seen Smashing Elven Queen! (#3) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 318 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 1, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 2, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 3, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 4, Hour 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 5, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 6, Hour 7 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 7, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 9, Hour 10 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 11, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 12, Hour 24 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 15, Hour 18 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 16, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 19, Hour 16 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 23, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 25, Hour 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 28, Hour 17 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 30, Hour 21 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 32, Hour 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 33, Hour 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 36, Hour 15 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 38, Hour 20 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 45, Hour 6 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 11 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Day 47, Hour 13 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Back with another roundfail. And I was so close to being in a winning realm too lol. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the most part, these will just be my in game journal being pasted here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 1, Hour 1&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Packed with Tidnab, Lud, Mcgeeal, and Weaser. For once I got to play a fast attacker in a full round, although the discussions were anything but smooth. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were fewer realms this time around due to fewer big packs signing in, and as such the size of the realm became big (15 doms before oop). However, about half or so of these doms were relatively new-ish players. The realm kinda looked eh on the first glance, with a few people unshared advisors right from the start (they had it shared but changed right away), but at least most of them joined our amazing theme of the great Urg the Devourer, so maybe it&#039;s a somewhat good sign?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stay tuned and find out what happens next.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wasn&#039;t sure about my dom name at first since the urg theme is kinda limiting, until I remembered about the Vikings character Aslaug and decided to use it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the talking points was starting size. Lud insisted that going big (800-850a) is the optimal way, while I didn&#039;t want to deal with long delays and preferred to start 700a and hit oop. I mean, playt0i won twice with like 666a start so it&#039;s definitely worked. In the end I got to have my way and went with a 700a halfling. I was leaning more towards firewalker, but having played halfling in the sprint round before this one, Weaser opted to pick fw.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ops bitz was another issue where there were debates. For some reason my pack didn&#039;t seem to value a dedicated ops bitz too highly, thinking that everyone could just get a bit of ratios for a while. I kept pushing that we needed at least one if we&#039;re going fast, especially one that will be around during my online time. In the end Lud abandoned his plan to convert to take the ops bitz role, so respect to that. Mcgeeal went with ftw exploring kobold, while Tidnab picked orc for our late round option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OOP plan was to make 2 hits, 1 at end of tick. However the easy bots were already gone by around 20 minutes mark, so I went for 1 hit on a player instead. It&#039;s a 90% hit so not too bad of a start, I guess...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 00:59:36 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 36 land from Erwin316 (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 1, Hour 13&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found a fatty and made a big hit. Tidnab then doubled on him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:16:44 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 58 land from Henry VIII (#10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 12:18:38 The Urg-Hai of Barad-dûr (#9) invaded Henry VIII (#10) and captured 50 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Weaser who went with bigger start and delayed hit bounced because he got released...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-10 21:59:59	Sadly, the forces of The Void is Urganizing (#9) were beaten back by The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 2, Hour 1&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-11 00:25:34 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 57 land from Hijacker&#039;s Guide to Air Force One (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checked this guy before and he had a lot of drafts, which he fortunately released. The GTC Effect soon took place and he got hit for 5-6 more times. Ouch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 3, Hour 3&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #6 kobo (Bobbo) is the top op at this moment. I dumped spec op on the hour he hit, 1 minute before hour change. His realmies checked on me afterwards (failing ops at least), but in the end he didn&#039;t draft up and left himself open. That feels good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 02:07:29 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 70 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 3, Hour 15&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Found another target that&#039;s hittable because they spent their drafts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-12 14:13:19 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 66 land from Cold Snap&lt;br /&gt;
(#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #5 (Scratch) tried to follow but bounced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 4, Hour 3&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t expecting to be able to hit right away on my return, but we found someone light. Weaser followed to double him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:15:45 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 64 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-13 02:16:42 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 63 land from Catherine Parr (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 5, Hour 7&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 05:59:53 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 68 land from Let him cook (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially we&#039;re aiming at the Icekin in the same realm (Sharkey), but there&#039;s a bit of uncertainty about things due to 5 fw and 6 kobo pushing op. In the end the icer rezoned some land to safe himself, and we had to switch target to his gnome buddy. I&#039;ll take it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 5, Hour 20&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had another target lined up, but 5 FW left himself open on a bot hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-14 18:59:49 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Denzel FWashington (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 6, Hour 4&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Weaser went for a hit, but left himself open to 5 FW because he didn&#039;t attack right at the end of tick. Things weren&#039;t looking too good for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:43:41	Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 59 land from Registered to Round 42 (#10).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 02:59:58	Denzel FWashington (#5) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 105 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for me,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 6, Hour 7&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to back 69 hits, woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-15 06:51:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 69 land from Mummy Brown (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
FW in #3 (Erix) started to push 5:4 threat around this time. About time someone does, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 7, Hour 20&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After some stalling by #3 FW, we found a potential ares drop target. Hour change arrived, and apparently the guy invested to walls the tick before, but didn&#039;t recast ares. Not sure if it&#039;s an attempt to trap me or not, but if it was, you tried.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-16 19:01:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 72 land from America’s Guide to a Falling Empire (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately the FW then hit Tidnab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The #2 merfolk ate another hit a few ticks later and got locked afterwards. Apparently the guy (seemingly Cronel) released his troops and gts, claiming he mistaken spec dp for drafts and gts for alchs(?!). Okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 9, Hour 10&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay this one was WILD. We found a target for a safe hit, but the guy was awake at that time and he did not one, but TWO last minute investment on his walls. However, after dumping some ores into my forges, I was able to hit just a split second before his second invest, and I got him. It was a pretty fucking nervous time and my chest still pounding even after the hit lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-18 08:59:31 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 78 land from CEO of living rent free in your head (#1).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We got a new castle at :59:34 which showed higher walls that would have make me bounce, so, really it&#039;s one hell of a luck I had. Nice try, sir, whoever you are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 11, Hour 15&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally found a hit that got me out of #3 FW range (I hope). We lined up a few targets and in the end went with the earliest possible one. I released 100 spec dp to train more spec op since I&#039;m safe (but just barely) from the FW. Thanks to everyone who helped with stabbing the target&#039;s drafts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-20 13:59:48 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 101 land from Neon Black ⚫️ (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 12, Hour 4&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Erix found a hit, but fortunately we also found another right on my return. Credit to Lud for spotting him! I released 50 wizard and trained them as spec op just to make sure. It&#039;s fortunate that the guy didn&#039;t notice my spec drop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 03:48:23 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 108 land from Pop (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 12, Hour 24&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another close call hit with draft stabbing playing yet another important role. Kudos to the team!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-21 23:43:46 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 118 land from Freyr - God of fertility, prosperity, and weather (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In hindsight, this was a bad hit. I pushed like 2k slingers on Lud&#039;s advice for this and probably shoulda just trained normally and waited for a better hit, since the guy I hit was a wood elf and I had to rezone tons afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 15, Hour 18&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things are looking a little gloomy for a bit as we didn&#039;t find any target for a few days. To make matter worse, #3 liz (Rio) pumped spec op to threaten a sui. We then noticed that #6 kobo, who already released some of his spec op a while back to save himself from getting hit all in, released his drafts which made him hittable in several ticks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of calculations were involved during the hit hour which made it quite stressful (even though it&#039;s Lud who&#039;s doing the numbers lol). Big credit to the realm for helping with killing the kobo&#039;s drafts (he released his remaining spec op and invested his resources last minute as well). Couldn&#039;t have done it without you, folks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-24 16:59:58 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 122 land from Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 16, Hour 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio went for a hit, and Lud had the crazy idea to release 1k spec dp and retrain them as 1k spec op. I went for it and caught the liz on my return as a result! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-25 04:20:32 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 123 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All credit goes to Lud, since I almost screwed the plan if anything. I was napping and had no idea about it, and when I woke up, I checked my dom first instead of discord and trained some dp instead. I had to trade all my lumbers and most of my ores to make up for the spent plat, but at least it worked out in the end lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With most of the decent wonders already taken, armada seems like a good pick due to the discounted guard cost. The unsinkable thing is nice, but for most parts, I got my boats covered with my docks already. The smaller guys in the realm were ready to hit it, but apparently it only took one attack from Blade. Woohoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:13 cheesebURGer (#9) has attacked a neutral wonder!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-26 19:07:15 The Imperial Armada has been destroyed and rebuilt by Need for Speed: URGderground (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 19, Hour 16&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rio had been preventing me from sending for days, and I feel like I&#039;m dead at this point. I even passed an ares drop hit because I didn&#039;t have enough dp. However, he then decided to hit Weaser when he sent (somehow not on end of tick again), thus opening himself to me. Weird decision? Perhaps not. Taking out Weaser probably would benefit his realm more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:58:46 Victorious on the battlefield, The Void is Urganizing (#9) conquered 126 land from Arnold Schwarzeorcer (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 14:59:41 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded fellow dominion The Void is Urganizing (#9) and captured 208 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-11-28 15:04:13 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 149 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 23, Hour 6&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After more stallfest I finally found a safe hit as this guy (apprently Jcinnz) entered my range on light dp. Thanks to Lud and Tidnab for doing the calculations as I wasn&#039;t on my laptop and had to hit from phone lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-02 02:59:40 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 146 land from 🗲A Pefect Voltorb 💣 (#4).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 25, Hour 1&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Woke up and saw Rio suicided #8 sylvan (Mithrandir). Well if he&#039;s offering himself, what can a man do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-04 00:14:11 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 182 land from Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 28, Hour 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made a risky hit in more than one way. We saw that the guy hadn&#039;t recasted his ares so we went for it. I had to do it from phone and that made me still shaking for minutes after the hit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-07 04:00:24 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 240 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not the time to feel relieved yet though cause it looks like #3 liz can sui me in several ticks. We&#039;ll see how it goes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 28, Hour 17&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Made it back as #3 didn&#039;t seem to be interested in hitting me since other slow doms would gain from the sui. It feels weird using the slow doms as cover as a fast attacker, but as long as it allows me to grow, anything&#039;s a fair game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 30, Hour 21&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 30 mins to hour change I brought up the possibility of ares dropping Cold Snap again. Responses were a little late and we didn&#039;t have enough time to completely calculate my dp vs #3 dorf (Calvin), but Lud said to hit first and calc later. We&#039;ll see how things turn out...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-09 20:00:18 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 234 land from Cold Snap (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think in the end I covered the dwarf&#039;s op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 32, Hour 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwarf in #8 (mris) looked like he&#039;s aiming to sui one of the big boys. It happened as expected and I was lucky enough to be able to land the first hit, by mere 2 seconds! He&#039;d have been oor otherwise. Game on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The funny thing was I noticed the sui potential because I farmed my bounties on the dwarf lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-10 23:59:55 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Thor - God of thunder and Protector of Ragnar (#7) and captured 232 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:11:57 The Pink Panther (#8) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 288 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:14 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 215 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:16 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded The Pink Panther (#8) and captured 258 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-11 04:13:22 Victorious on the battlefield, Hiroyoshi (#9) conquered 236 land from The Pink Panther (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 33, Hour 4&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm 3 sent their sui missiles on #8 sylv and #5 human (Jboy) within a few hours. Crazy stuffs. Too bad I couldn&#039;t benefit from it this time as the suiciders were out of range.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 00:54:17 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:49:07 Urg-ent: Why Speed is Important (#3) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 333 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 01:59:45 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Forseti - God of justice and peace (#7) and captured 197 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-12 03:10:27 Caught Red-Handed: Urg Seen Smashing Elven Queen! (#3) invaded HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) and captured 318 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 36, Hour 2&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With me being on life support and getting outrained by all the slow doms, the pack decided that I should sui on #3 human (Gothia). I was expecting the hit by #3 dwarf, but not from #7 orc (Rvv - who&#039;s oor before the dorf hit me), which I assumed also leading to the hit by #8 sylvan. It was around 5-6 am when the whole thing happened, so I could only trust my realmies&#039; judgement and in the end it turned out to be a terrible move, to put it lightly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 21:59:25 Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) invaded Catherine Howard (#10) and captured 247 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 22:59:56 Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) invaded Urg’s Urges: How To Smash Responsibly (#3) and captured 311 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-14 23:33:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 421 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:07:00 Bragi - God of poetry and music (#7) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 402 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 00:10:25 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) invaded Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 330 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 06:59:20 Bruh lewk that snack I&#039;m so thirsty for a smash (#1) invaded fellow dominion Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) and captured 349 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh well. As always, better luck next round. It was a decent run, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were various opinions regarding this move. Some thought it&#039;s bad, others said it&#039;s the right move. In any case this was the end of my round. It&#039;s been a learning experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 36, Hour 15&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-15 14:14:48 When in doubt always invest in forges (#8) has declared WAR on Trapped inside this Urgtavarium (#9).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 warred us to burn Mcgeeal, and possibly taking the wonder as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 38, Hour 20&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8 took down Armada a few ticks before they could cancel the war for some reason, possibly so they could sink Ineq. I asked the realm if anyone was available to hit it, but there wasn&#039;t much response until I took a nap, about 3-4 hrs later lol. Had a bit of long day since I had to wait for a long time in a clinic to get a shot for my eczema. There seemed to be rushed hits on the wonder as the realm was hoping to take it, but #8 finally cancelled with just over half hp down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up about an hour later and some people understandably got bitter over wasted troops. Timezone sucks. Sleeping sucks lol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 45, Hour 6&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking doomed over the last week with #8 sylvan closing on Mcgeeal, until some madness happened. #8 bounced on a bottomfeed, then got razed by #6 wood elf (Fett) before the orc (TheThing) hit him. #1 dwarf (Harm) then hit #6 orc, followed by #3 dwarf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 02:59:47 Snap (#6) fended off an attack from Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:14 Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) fended off an attack from Lucky the Leprechaun (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 03:59:19 Toucan Sam (#6) invaded Goose Turd Green 🪿💩 (#8) and captured 478 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 04:59:53 My rizz going big on ur thicc sis (#1) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 433 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-24 05:59:47 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Toucan Sam (#6) and captured 400 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Things still remained uncertain at this point. Stay tuned for the grand finish?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 47, Hour 11&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harm hit a greedy sylvan (Grapes) in #6 (a realm which had been feeding him tons of acres) and that pretty much won him the round. He then bf&#039;d on last day to (hitting into the same realm again) to make sure of it. The end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Day 47, Hour 13&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently it&#039;s not quite over just yet for me as #3 dorf suicided #5 undead (Manno) and I decided to yolo to get the last laugh of my round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:49:29 Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) invaded Cryptopher Walken (#5) and captured 512 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:51:32 Snap (#6) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 442 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:52:29 HUg̶h̶J̶̶a̶̶c̶̶k̶̶MAN (#5) invaded Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3) and captured 355 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2024-12-26 11:59:43 Victorious on the battlefield, Aslaurg Sigurgsdottir (#9) conquered 377 land from Urg spotted going all in - no shortcuts! (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The hit allowed me to reach another personal best finish (6.4k) and was a nice consolation I guess lol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welp, so that&#039;s it. Things coulda gone better, but such is life. I&#039;d like to thank my packies and realmies for all the support. Too bad we didn&#039;t make it in the end. It&#039;s my first competitive round and hopefully I can get another try soon enough. Thank you for reading as always.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Hi, this is Rush here. Zar was kind enough to let me hijack his entry in the top 100 so I could post this Roundfail. Turns out when you abandon, Emperor fett personally deletes your very existence from the history books in disgust - and rightly so! But it meant I had nowhere else to go. So thank you to Zar, last refuge of the fett-scorned and official sponsor of my last ever (gasp) Roundfail. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;FOREWORD&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This foreword has been a bit of a bitch to write. Actually this whole Roundfail has been a bitch to write, what with all the drama, bullshit, lies, cheating and general cunty-ness on full display from our wonderful community this past round. I have pretty much washed my hands of OD at this point, but I had over 6,000 words of this Roundfail written before I quit - so I figured I might as well tidy it up a little and then hit publish. One last yarn.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before I get into it though, I&#039;m going to be somewhat self-indulgent and talk a little bit about the editing process first. It has some context for the tone of this Roundfail so it&#039;s worth covering.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I write these stories I do tend to spend a fair bit of time on them, and a big part of that is the editing. I re-read what I&#039;ve written and revise it repeatedly through the round and post-round. I probably revise the entire volume five or six times before you ever even see it on the wiki. I have one golden rule with these Roundfails: they are light entertainment. They are a bit of fun for people who are still capable of some oldschool reading in an age of short attention spans and tiktok videos. In this community, that&#039;s probably like five of you. Then there&#039;s a larger group that just Ctrl + F for their own name, and when they don&#039;t find it, they go back to watching youtube shorts of guys being accidentally hit in the balls by various projectiles. But no matter how you consume this content, it has always had those &#039;light entertainment&#039; guard rails on. These Roundfails are supposed to be at least mildly interesting and funny, and not meant make people feel bad about themselves. That means no genuinely hostile or personal attacks on other players. When I do trip up and cross that line, it always gets caught in one of the edit sweeps before publication, and if something does sound genuinely hostile, I&#039;ll re-work it until it&#039;s at least funny instead of just mean-spirited. This is why we end up with memes about Mithrandir going to Disneyland instead of a toxic rant about selfish players not giving a shit about teamplay weeks before they ever got on a plane to the magic kingdom. It is an exercise in self-moderation and it &#039;&#039;&#039;always&#039;&#039;&#039; improves the overall quality and entertainment value of the Roundfail.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has been very hard to follow that golden rule this round. Not least because so many people in this community clearly have absolutely no interest in moderating their own toxicity, or just don&#039;t have the social aptitude or self-awareness to realise when they&#039;re being cunts and reel themselves in. I&#039;m not talking down from a pedestal here, I&#039;m right up there on the list of repeat offenders in cheeky comments - but some players really go beyond the pale with genuine anger and are so relentless in their heedless cuntery that they have now effectively poisoned and polarised the community. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So in the end, not wanting to further poison the well, I settled on somewhere between keeping it vague enough that any of you reading this who did contribute to this shitshow won&#039;t feel personally attacked, while still having a good rant at your expense. The best of both worlds. Unless your name is Mithrandir, in which case you still get a well-deserved roasting throughout this story - starting three paragraphs ago. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m aware this is a quality control failure, but I&#039;ve decided it&#039;s warranted in this case. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also, this is by no means a &#039;finished&#039; story; I abandoned on like day 33(ish), but I&#039;d been on autopilot for a week before that, so it ends quite abruptly. I only found out through the grapevine that playt0i won the round, but I was happy to hear that for two reasons: one, he&#039;s a cool dude, and two, he&#039;s one of those incredibly insular one-pack-for-life players, which likely excludes him from a lot of gossip. Speaking to him post-round, he had absolutely zero forewarning about all of the blops alliance rumours, and did not benefit from the perceived pre-round (un)intelligence that some other players tried to use to their advantage. So congratulations to playt0i and his pack / realm for the win. It was well deserved and fairly earned. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, with all of the above in mind, you are now equipped with the drama warnings you need before deciding if you want to waste your time reading this Roundfail. Without further ado, let&#039;s spin this stupid yarn.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PRE-ROUND - SIX DEGREES OF KEVIN BACONDIR&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, Rush here with another Roundfail. And it&#039;s another draft round baby!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh, it wasn&#039;t a draft round, you say? Well, maybe not for you. But if you&#039;re a blackopper or spicy fast attacker, it most certainly was a draft round. If you weren&#039;t invited, that&#039;s a you thing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But in all seriousness, after soloing the previous round I was keen not to re-live that experience anytime soon, and we&#039;d been trying to organise a pack but had somehow ended up with six players wanting in it, which obviously wasn&#039;t going to work. We were also all a bit frustrated with the lack of meaningful war in the previous round, which led to a realm running away essentially uncontested. These two problems had a solution, and so we set about having our own private draft. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We approached a mix of mostly blackoppers and fast attackers, as well as a handful of players that had a mixed skillset, meaning any pack that was built could have some versatility depending on the preferences of its captain. Identikit hydras, but with enough genetic variation to be wildly different beasts in the field. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The people we approached were all informed that there would be no collusion; this wasn&#039;t an alliance, or a non-aggression pact, or an effort to work together towards a common goal (besides trying to have our respective realms win, of course - like every other realm out there). Once the round began we all knew we would all be enemies. One of the people we invited as a potential fast attacker was Mithrandir. We thought he could be a great wildcard player, though it later became clear that he was already committed to Erix&#039;s pack. But instead of declining our invitation and explaining he was busy or already committed to a pack (which is what every other player we approached who couldn&#039;t make it did), he expressed interest and fished for more information. As I look back at our discord conversation, I realise now he never actually declined to join - his line was always essentially &amp;quot;I&#039;m interested and will probably join, just give me more time&amp;quot;, stringing us along until we found out he was just leaking a warped version of what we had told him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mith repackaged the expressly conveyed &amp;quot;no collusion&amp;quot; rule in his invite as a &amp;quot;blackops coalition&amp;quot; and told his then-realm that this blackops coalition was forming for the next round. I don&#039;t know who all initially heard this &#039;Mithiniformation&#039;, but I do know that virtually half the playerbase knew about it by the first week of the round and that this was the catalyst for the meltdown we&#039;d all see on day 4 after blackops went live, when BigBell brought the rumours into the main discord. This untrue rumour of a blackops alliance (which would have been a very obvious breach of the rules) had gestated inside Mithrandir&#039;s realm about three weeks before the round started, going unreported despite the rumours reaching multiple packs. And because it was never reported to fett or the rules committee until after day 4, it meant a sizeable subset of the OD community was now operating under the Mithguided belief that there was a blackops alliance this round - and presumably altering their playstyle to anticipate it, whether in foreplanning pre-round or by strategic changes after learning about it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whether by active backdoor gossip or passive exposure, it&#039;s quite easy to encounter info you shouldn&#039;t have in OD. You can learn things you shouldn&#039;t just by existing in a realm discord where someone else shares it. Using BigBell as an example here is illustrative of how rife it is, as he&#039;s someone with no previous round connection to Mith in-realm, and he discovered information (albeit bullshit) shared by people in that realm. I suspect if we played Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon in OD it wouldn&#039;t take anywhere that number of connections to trace it all back to Mith, but there&#039;s at least two degrees of separation in this one given that BigBell&#039;s realm this round shares no common realmie with Mith&#039;s realm last round or BigBell&#039;s realm this round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is a lot of info-sharing that goes on in this game, often between players that have strong pack connections but occasionally decide to ride with another group. They have close friendships and talk in their own channels, and usually it&#039;s not considered actively harmful because the bulk of the info they trade is locations. If you&#039;re a top player in a realm with someone outside of their normal pack, there is a non-zero probability your location will leak - and not always just to the rest of that person&#039;s pack, but to their entire realm. And once it&#039;s in the realm&#039;s collective information, it gets shared even wider. In case you ever wondered but couldn&#039;t figure it out, this is why most people know where most of the big names are by the end of the round. The community likes to gossip. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Normally this info-sharing doesn&#039;t apply to hard strategic information; these people are typically only sharing locs and not ops. They may get some psychological insight benefit from it, and usually that&#039;s about it. There are also people who do share ops or try to push strategic moves onto other realms, but they are an extreme minority of elite players - such as Wurstmeyer, who was kicked off the GPC this round after being investigated by the rules committee. But it is highly unusual to see anyone share strategic information ahead of or during a round that they should not have access to, and even rarer to see a complete lie proliferate throughout the community uncontested, especially where it concerns the characters of players we all know and have played with before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So it was with some considerable dismay that I realised either Mithrandir or his cohort, or both, were spreading this rumour about a blackops alliance. Multiple realms caught wind of it through a series of Chinese whispers. This is strategic information sharing, even though it was bollocks - and that is expressly against the rules, and not in the &amp;quot;oh what&#039;s the harm tee hee&amp;quot; kind of way that loc-sharing is treated despite also being expressly against the rules. The players responsible for this info sharing took NO HEAT for actually breaking the rules - and instead directed real anger at innocent, rules-abiding blackoppers. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hypocrisy at its finest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to me at the time that it was an obviously silly conspiracy theory - 15 players with no history of cheating, deciding collectively to all cheat together and throw away their reputations, was just so ridiculous that I was legitimately (and in hindsight, foolishly) confident nobody would believe it. Of course we&#039;d always been wary the pack draft could leak before I could announce it on the Rush Hour podcast, it was just disappointing to see how it had been presented to other players behind closed doors. So when I heard about what Mithrandir had done I just messaged him directly and asked him to knock it off, and hoped that would be the end of it. How naive I was. In retrospect of course I should have known that once that gossip train had left the station there&#039;d be no stopping it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But I&#039;m getting ahead of myself. While the Fake News Express was hurtling towards Drama Station, we were still in the process of drafting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For blackoppers and versatile players, we pulled in all the big names and a few moonlighters. We had Cronel, AgFx, Grapes of Math, ForPony, Damdred, Swamp Fox, jmerc, former roundwinner mcgeeal, volv, Loki, Zar and myself. We also had to consider which fast attackers might be game for such a volatile arrangement. They had to be adaptable and comfortable with a lot of chaos, so it was a very short shortlist of about five names: Downrightdave and Sugarjon were obvious choices, with Dave being part of the original &#039;hydra&#039; and Sugarjon eager to see what all that fuss was about. Damdred had floated Soup as being interested, and we also checked in with Rio and Mithrandir to see if they&#039;d be interested. Rio couldn&#039;t make it, having other commitments, and Mithrandir as we already know expressed disingenuous interest in joining.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While we waited days for Mith to give us a concrete response that would never arrive, Soup confirmed his interest. Fortunately Soup was the real deal, so we snapped him up. We had our three team captains.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The rest of the process went about how you might imagine if you&#039;ve ever been part of the official draft rounds. I landed on Team Soup, alongside Zar, Volv and Loki. Dave picked up mcgeeal, Swamp Fox, Grapes and jmerc, while Sugarjon leaned fully into the hydra spirit and selected Cronel, ForPony, AgFx and Damdred. Sugarjon had built the most authentic hydra of yore, and would be reliant on the algorithm lottery in landing with other decent attackers to make the most of it, while Dave and Soup&#039;s teams had a bit more flexibility and wouldn&#039;t be so reliant on realm composition. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;WEEK 1 - THE MITHINFORMATION TRAINWRECK&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At realm assignment, we had an interesting mix: Ivetza and Rompar had two-packed, and we also landed with some decent random active bloppers, namely Hexum (Beautiful Disaster) and Bazzaroony, whose names I both recognised as being nuisance competitors in previous rounds for blops ranks. Well, at least this round they&#039;d be a thorn in my enemies&#039; sides instead of mine! Ivetza was potentially a blessing and a curse. A blessing for his capability as a fast attacker, and a curse because it&#039;s Ivetza. If his round went off the rails there was a high chance he would too. But Rompar made up for it with his banter in discord. We also landed with a relatively new and active player, shanulf, who was cool and keen to learn the game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was The Betty Boop of Massive Bloops, and I decided to go Undead after hearing Cronel talk them up the previous round. Big thanks as always to Lud for the excellent sim, it performed exactly as he predicted it would and came out really strong on high land at oop, though it was a bit spooky relying on so many draftees for squishy dp for the first 12 hours, even knowing they couldn&#039;t be assassinated. As Lud foretold, I had a lot more ops in my news than I was accustomed to without actually getting hit. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I didn&#039;t take much notice of the first three days of the round as usual; we all know the real round starts after the excel simulator disengages on day 4, when blops go live and attackers collectively wet themselves at the thought of being lightly pelted by soggy noodleballs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We mostly seemed like we were in a good position. Soup and Ivetza were in the mix of competitive FAs, and while our realm had taken some hits, it was mostly our inactives that fed. Bazzaroony also had a string of bad luck where he got munched a few times and almost abandoned, but some words of encouragement from Ivetza gave him the motivation to play on. Of our pack, Loki had been the most indecisive about what he wanted to play, stuck between the idea of wanting to try out something unusual and off-the-wall while also not wanting to be a burden to the pack in case it failed. He&#039;d oscillate between those two positions like a coked-up human pendulum until he eventually came down on playing a converting Dark Elf, following a suggestion from Volv who&#039;d seen Sarmis play it quite impressively. I had personally hoped Loki would be blops support so a converter - and following what was presumably an incredibly hard-to-follow act in Sarmis&#039; shadow at that, which Sarmis himself also failed to pull off - was not the best news, but at least he was a DE converter, which solved the issue of him getting roasted if we went to war. And he said he&#039;d still support with blops as a &amp;quot;combat blopper&amp;quot;, a concept I&#039;d never heard of before. I didn&#039;t really see it happening but it&#039;s the thought that counts, right? At oop Loki struggled to keep pace with the dp requirements and got hit, which immediately hurt his chances of a decent convert. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-20 02:59:13	Hawk Tuah (Bobbo) (#12) invaded fellow dominion The Kurt Cobain of Sui Trains (#4) and captured 56 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The best laid plans and all that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile Volv had created a monsterblop build and came out of protection on something ridiculous like 17% towers. He was like AgFx on steroids. Zar was always pretty useful for blops generally, but I knew from playing with him previously that ops is where he shines. I&#039;d suggested to soup after he drafted me that we snap him up before someone else did, as when he&#039;s on the ball with ops he just makes everyone else&#039;s lives so much easier. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I followed my usual path of coming oop quite light on spywiz, and on around 10% towers early so I had a sufficient mana pool to launch one full volley of fireballs if it was needed. We took a pragmatic approach: we&#039;d see what the landscape looked like, with an opportunistic view to war, but not a cavalier one. In fact I had expected us to be the least war-mongery of the three hydras and the last to war, but that didn&#039;t exactly play out as planned and we ended up being the first realm to break the seal on declaring war. The decision essentially became a foregone conclusion when soup sent out on a hit without updating one of his closest competitors in #8, the lycanthrope I&#039;m not gay but ops are ops (Disco).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-20 17:59:42	Victorious on the battlefield, The Ricky Bobby of Going Fast (#4) conquered 47 land from step through the fog and creep through the smog (Beta52) (#11).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With mounting horror soup realised the lyc could break him, which would spell disaster for our entire realm, as we had pinned our best hopes of doing well on our twin FAs. And now it looked like one of the two was about to get demolished.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We only really had one recourse: sink his ass. We took a look at his docks situation and as soon as we realised he was sinkable, our mistake became Disco&#039;s misfortune. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-20 18:35:26	The Roger the Dodger of Sticky Situations (#4) has declared WAR on (ODA) (#8).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think Disco may have actually had decent spies for a fast attacker; I remember failing a bunch of ops on the guy. Or maybe I was just unlucky. But we still took him down to 77 boats from approx 150 and suddenly he couldn&#039;t full send anymore, and had to sit on his hands until he fixed his docks problem and his boats regenerated. We also set him on fire, because why not? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once he had the boats to send, he got some due gratification with a war hit on our realmie 34 hours later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-22 04:47:16	I&#039;m not gay but ops are ops (#8) invaded fellow dominion The mr bean of comical relief (Bazzaroony) (#4) and captured 53 land.&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It wasn&#039;t ideal but we had averted disaster for soup, and with our realm composition it all hinged on him and Ivetza keeping the pace. Our realm was still in the race.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, the other hydras had found themselves in a war for one reason or another. Dave&#039;s realm had been savaged by Wurstmeyer and co in realm #12:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-19 14:55:16	Hawk Tuah (Bobbo) (#12) invaded Tipyourcanoe and Sink Them Too (DownrightDave) (#5) and captured 55 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-19 16:59:56	Zip Splat (DanTheMan) (#12) invaded Tipyourcanoe and Sink Them Too (#5) and captured 49 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So it was with little surprise that a war their way came: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-20 18:43:00	Creating a game in which no dominion needs to go to bed hungry! (#5) has declared WAR on snap, crackle and pop (#12).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At blops live, #12 were among the first to start spluttering that the war was unfair and that bloppers can&#039;t be trusted to make sensible decisions. But revenge is best served hot and fiery in OD. There are genuinely players in this game that seem to be operating under the misapprehension that hits, particularly multiple hits, aren&#039;t MASSIVE acts of aggression and don&#039;t deserve to be punished later. It makes no sense to me but it really does appear to some players as though nothing should ever upset the sanctity of the careful balance at the top - even including some well-earned revenge. Realm #5&#039;s war with #12 was effectively us all witnessing an egotist realm being slapped out of its reverie by the cold hand of reality. A lesson in diplomacy perhaps.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cronel&#039;s realm took the bold decision to war #6, and the even bolder decision to start fireballing their two fully protected top attackers. This was the second round in a row Cronel&#039;s realm had warred and bombed fully protected targets (having not spotted the Wizard Academy protecting a realm last round) and then been flabberghasted at being ineffective. Of all of the realms, realm #6 had more protection than anyone else; #11&#039;s fireballs would have been shrugged off. I thought #6 was actually a viable candidate for war, and is a realm I would also have considered at some point early on were it not for soup&#039;s shenanigans, but only in the sense that you&#039;d have to kneecap their late-round threat players instead and avoid feeding their top guys. And even then it would have been incredibly high risk / low reward with how dysfunctional mutual war is now. The halfling, Hawk Tua on Yami (playt0i), and the undead, Someone suicide Yami! 🎯🔫 (Jcinnz), were both virtually immune from wiz blackops, and their races highly resilient against spy blops. And they could mutual if declared upon, granting an obscene op bonus that still feels incredibly strong given that the concern of pile-ons from other realms no longer applies now that wiz damage is capped and time-limited. Mutual used to be risky business back when a blops pile-on from other realms was a potential threat, but nowadays with rejuvenation it&#039;s just risk free and purely beneficial for the top realm to mutual if they are defended. They all do it without a second thought now. No strategic thinking required, just go mutual - it&#039;s free real estate. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-20 19:56:49	Flame on! (#11) has declared WAR on Generic realm name (#6).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-20 20:54:16	Generic realm name (#6) has declared WAR on Flame on! (#11).	&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That 10% op bonus would have been absolutely crushing and #11 didn&#039;t manage to keep up, and ended up feeding the top ops instead of hobbling them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-21 02:59:45	Victorious on the battlefield, Someone suicide Yami! 🎯🔫 (Jcinnz) (#6) conquered 48 land from step through the fog and creep through the smog (Beta52) (#11).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-21 20:57:29	Victorious on the battlefield, Someone suicide Yami! 🎯🔫 (#6) conquered 62 land from The Mailman (alison) (#11).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm #11 noped out of that war as soon as they could.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-22 19:39:18	Flame on! (#11) has CANCELED war against Generic realm name (#6).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-22 20:01:17	Generic realm name (#6) has CANCELED war against Flame on! (#11).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was #11&#039;s first mistake of the round, but it wouldn&#039;t be their last, because their next move would be to mess with the best: realm #4. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My realm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, realm #1, supposedly a pinoy realm that had been constructed by fett (at their request) to help prevent info-sharing in ironically what has turned out to be the most prolific example of info-sharing we&#039;ve ever seen in a round from a chunk of the playerbase, declared war on #13:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-21 00:47:51	We Got A PhD In Break Dancing (#1) has declared WAR on &amp;quot;We come from the land of ice cream &amp;amp; dough&amp;quot; Bread Zeppelin (#13).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nobody knows why. I&#039;m not even sure they could tell you why.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But this marked the fourth war shortly after blops went live. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the time, to the subset of the info-sharing community that was hopped up on Mithrandir&#039;s falsehoods and absolutely fizzing about it, all of these wars looked like a coordinated effort. The Mithinformation started leaking like a burst dam. The blops coalition rumour finally got formally reported - by a realm that wasn&#039;t Mith&#039;s. And in another realm that wasn&#039;t Mith&#039;s, or the origin of the report, BigBell had &amp;quot;various concerned citizens&amp;quot; approach him with this Mithinformation. Who knew BigBell was the OD police? He was the first person to bring those rumours into the discourse in the game&#039;s main discord. What followed was a series of serious accusations of cheating - though to give BigBell some due credit, he did caveat them with &amp;quot;**if** you&#039;ve done this, then this is what I think&amp;quot;. But just putting the Mithinformation out there was enough to set imaginations alight and turn the discord into a swamp of toxicity. And to BigBell&#039;s discredit, he would then repeatedly water down what started off as &amp;quot;if you have a blackops alliance then you are the worst of people&amp;quot; to, after three or four watered-down revisions to his accusation were countered by truthful denials on my part, what ultimately became &amp;quot;if you have a discord the rest of us aren&#039;t in, you are still the worst of people&amp;quot;. And at that point I had to disengage; it seemed to me he&#039;d become too entrenched in his position to be reasonable, and had to come away with his pound of flesh to justify his anger. We did of course operate a private discord to organise the draft. After the draft was conducted it was shut down so nobody could communicate. But you try explaining that one to the guy in the middle of a conspiracy theory meltdown. No thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The discord did its thing. We talked it out, hundreds of messages were exchanged, and then fett ruled in and said a private draft wasn&#039;t against any rules, which everyone involved already knew but it was nice to have it officially stated. The worst I heard was that it was a &amp;quot;moral grey area&amp;quot;, which I don&#039;t agree with, but even if it were true, hey, we&#039;re blackoppers. The moral grey area is where we live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once everything settled down, inevitably some dozy git would meander in having read none of the exchange, and offer their uninformed two cents on the original Mithinformation, then saunter off and the whole thing would explode again for another several hours. Rinse and repeat until everyone hates each other. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m not one to hold grudges usually, but the community has a lot to answer for on this one. Despite initially sharing information and rule-breaking, none of the heat came down on Mithrandir, and instead was laser focused on an entirely innocent side draft a small number of players were having. I am still annoyed about it weeks later as I revise this section of my notes. I don&#039;t think Mithrandir ever intended or could have foreseen that this shitstorm would happen, and I think control of the rumour would have immediately left his hands as soon as he told his realm, but in my opinion he is still fully responsible for everything that followed - and hasn&#039;t once apologised, which indicates to me he doesn&#039;t even think he&#039;s done anything wrong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But Mith&#039;s stupid behaviour aside, my real gripe is the hypocrisy of the community targeting a draft that wasn&#039;t against the rules while sweeping the absolutely rife info-sharing that goes on under the carpet - because so many people are at it and many of the accusors will have been complicit in it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cuntmongering of the highest order. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pinoys, as one example, get a pretty bad rap for having their own sub-community that shares information freely between its members, but if they were sharing that information with their friends regardless of nationality, do you know what we&#039;d call them? It wouldn&#039;t be cheaters. We&#039;d call them your average elite pack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So that was week one. The community had collectively shit itself, and a bunch of people including myself left the main discord in disgust. Even Pillar of the Community AgFx was pissed off, which was the first huge alarm bell to a lot of people that things had taken a serious turn. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were off to a great start. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;WEEK 2 - THE IVETZA PROBLEM&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ivetza had surprised me; not only did he help talk Bazzaroony down from the ledge after he got hit multiple times, but he was also taking time out to coach new player shanulf, who had been efficient-exploring but wanted to try and convert. I was starting to warm up to the guy after his weird winking homophobic tantrum in the previous round. But we eventually encountered a problem, and it was pretty early on. Soup had thought he and Ivetza were in a symbiotic fast attacker bromance relationship, one protecting the other, the two of them rising as one to take on the world together. It&#039;s the ideal situation for fast attacking in OD and they were working in synchronicity. Ivetza apparently did not see it this way however, because it seems when Ivetza spies an opportunity, he does not consider the ramifications for others, he only sees the opportunity as it pertains to Ivetza. This is ultimately what led to us falling off as a threat to #6&#039;s rapidly developing stranglehold on the round.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-26 21:13:52	Zip Splat (DanTheMan) (#12) invaded Someone suicide Yami! 🎯🔫 (Jcinnz) (#6) and captured 128 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-26 21:16:02	Obesity Boys (BigBell) (#13) invaded Zip Splat (#12) and captured 104 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-26 21:16:05	Vǎrkolak - 0/0, completely harmless (SlyPimp) (#9) invaded Zip Splat (#12) and captured 102 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-26 21:16:33	I&#039;m not gay but ops are ops (Disco) (#8) invaded Zip Splat (#12) and captured 87 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Zip Splat&#039;s suicide on Someone suicide Yami had sparked off the usual chain of vultures feeding, and soup was preparing to be the fourth in the chain. He&#039;d taken the ops, he was discussing it in discord, it was a safe hit for him, and the land would help him stay in the race and keep the pressure on #6.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ivetza had other plans. He logged in, saw the suicide, didn&#039;t bother to check top op (which he wasn&#039;t safe against), didn&#039;t consult anyone and immediately full sent at Zip Splat, essentially suiciding on a suicide. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-26 21:25:27	Victorious on the battlefield, The Topper Harley of Gummy bears boxing (Ivetza) (#4) conquered 77 land from Zip Splat (#12).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ivetza had stolen soup&#039;s safe hit, knocked the target out of soup&#039;s range, and then because he wasn&#039;t safe, directly fed the realm that #12&#039;s suicide was intended to hurt, ruining the suicide and soup&#039;s chances to keep the pressure on #6. He had double-fucked our realm and undone any benefit from Zip Splat&#039;s suicide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-27 03:22:41	Hawk Tua on Yami (playt0i) (#6) invaded fellow dominion The Topper Harley of Gummy bears boxing (#4) and captured 112 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some of the realm accused him of stealing targets, and Ivetza&#039;s response was &amp;quot;I log in, I see a suicide, I send&amp;quot;. Soup was considering abandoning at this point, to which Ivetza simply said &amp;quot;if you want to abandon go ahead, I will follow&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That abandon didn&#039;t happen, and soup limped on for a bit before later deconverting. Ivetza would also follow with a deconvert shortly afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Towards of the tail end of the first week, Sugarjon&#039;s realm of wonder-sniping wee bastards had sniped the Wonder we&#039;d been diligently cycloning. Cronel would later claim personal responsibility for the snipe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-23 22:10:14	The Halls of Knowledge has been destroyed and rebuilt by Warpool (#11).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This then led to the first war between blopper realms and was the first obvious signal that there was no love lost between the draft hydras. But if that wasn&#039;t evidence enough, #11 made it mutual. &amp;quot;I think that was a mistake,&amp;quot; said soup, and then made the hit of the day with the full mutual war bonus active. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-25 23:18:49	The Ricky Bobby of Going Fast (#4) invaded fellow dominion Hydra Bob (ForPony!) (#11) and captured 121 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm #11 dragged out the war for a while, but after eventually calculating that they wouldn&#039;t be able to take the Wonder back from us in the 3-hour window they&#039;d allowed themselves by mutualing when they did, and suffering under the intense pressure of soup&#039;s boosted op, they threw in the towel. They got a decent borrow of our Wonder, but it had now been returned to its rightful owners.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-28 19:58:02	War Were Declared on #4 (#11) has CANCELED war against The Stephen Fry of Low QI (#4).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m just going to pause the flow for a bit to let you appreciate our realm name. Witty, insulting, on-theme AND it rhymes? It&#039;s gold.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And we&#039;re appreciating.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And appreciating some more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Okay, let&#039;s continue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We didn&#039;t have our Wonder for long before the other blops hydra in realm #5 made the decision to come after us for it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-29 08:59:53	Lack of war is weakness entering one’s body (#5) has declared WAR on The Marv Murchins of Stealing Realmies&#039; Targets (#4).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This annoyed us, because we had been gearing up to war #6 and attempt to kneecap their late-game threats. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As part of their war they fireballed soup, who was at the time the only one still left pressuring #6, which led to further hysteria about bloppers from the community. They didn&#039;t hammer soup particularly hard though, so I&#039;m not sure if it was a rogue blopper or if they changed their approach after taking some backlash. Either way, soup never had burning or rejuvenation trigger in the war.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We waited a few days before making it mutual, ensuring we took what was rightfully ours back from the scamps in #5.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-31 02:59:12	The Walter White of Educating Noobs with Smite (#4) has declared WAR on We’re sorry, that doms lack of defense was clearly our fault (#5).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We scouted a potential war hit for soup in #5, but he was unfortunately not safe against #6 to make the hit. And ultimately #5 decided they didn&#039;t want to be caught in a Wonder war.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-08-31 08:00:06	Lack of war is weakness entering one’s body (#5) has CANCELED war against The Marv Murchins of Stealing Realmies&#039; Targets (#4).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Realm #5 would then later complain they had been gearing up to go after #6, when they in turn were warred by #3.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-09-01 17:15:05	The roof is on fire 🔥 (#3) has declared WAR on Revenge is best served with war (#5).&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Quite annoying when cheeky blops realms disrupt your plans for blopping the big baddies, innit #5? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;WEEK 3 - DUMPSTER FIRE&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For two weeks the OD discord had been a toxic swamp of aggro and snide remarks about blackoppers. It happens every round but it was now in overdrive after Mith&#039;s rumour mill shenanigans; I wasn&#039;t in the discord anymore but I was still getting updates that the usual suspects just couldn&#039;t leave it alone. I think for the nature of a game like OD it is expected that it attracts more of the neurodiverse than you&#039;d see in other online communities, but this had gone beyond the weaponised autism you see pitted against blackops each round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had expected it might actually die down after I left the discord, since I&#039;m usually a major antagonist, defending the importance and utility of blackops, and therefore the guy also partly responsible for helping perpetuate the conversation. But instead of leaving a void where players could freely shit on bloppers with no pushback, other bloppers by this point felt so aggrieved at all of the outlandish and absurd criticism that they were clapping back. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The blops playstyle is in never-ending flux thanks to this never-ending blops screeching. People blopping don&#039;t know up from down half the time, and it is exhausting listening to this asinine nonsense about a playstyle its most ardent critics don&#039;t play and wouldn&#039;t even touch with a barge pole when most of us here are pushing or in their 40s, and just trying to have a good time playing a game with our friends. And we can&#039;t be having that now can we?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll interrupt my own rant with a small but necessary concession here. The majority of players pushing these lines aren&#039;t toxic players generally, they just wade into the middle of a heated discussion, drop a big turd into the mix, offer no solutions, and go back to doing whatever they were doing. It&#039;s what they&#039;ve always done round after round and its been fine, so I can see why doing this probably felt like nothing out of the ordinary. Unfortunately by this stage, a near-unanimity of the blops players were sick of it and were pushing back against these constant and casual waves of abuse. And they were met with mostly mixed reactions of surprise and irritation. Grapes of Math, one of the friendliest guys in the community, became Grapes of Wrath and unleashed the fury on some poor saps in the discord that were still whinging about bloppers. Swamp Fox, always the smart one, made the wise decision and just straight up noped out of the discord and even out of the notion of playing OD full stop. Pillar of the Community and the Man with the Voice, AgFx, who has probably done more for this community than anyone outside of fett and the GPC, snapped and abandoned, quitting the game. Damdred left, dave left, plenty others like jmerc muted the place and the list just goes on. In droves, bloppers were sick of the community&#039;s toxic behaviour. It was an exodus. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So much for those halcyon days where we thought we were different and more mature than all those other gamer communities eh? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For my part, I was totally fine not playing the role of the argumentative blopper in the discord. Leaving had evoked the same sort of feeling I have when I&#039;m lying in bed and I can hear it&#039;s pouring down with rain outside, but I&#039;m all warm and cosy. I knew there was storm raging on outside, but it was now someone else&#039;s problem. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of course, there were immediate downsides. No AgFx meant no Rush Hour podcasts for the 60-70 people that listen in every other week, and Riol Talk would probably have to find another editor if AgFx and Merf were both out of the picture. Fett worked out we could still pull in the blops ranks data since AgFx&#039;s work was all open source, but without the silly end of round awards show we do to go alongside it, it had lost a lot of the shine for me. And why would you want to contribute to a community that just throws abuse at you anyway? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m coming to the end of this rant shortly, I promise. Let me end with this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blops screechers - those of you who cannot help youselves - you need to recognise that blackops have a valuable role to play in this game, and that blackoppers by and large do play that role in good faith, working together as a team, co-operating with their realm to the benefit of the realm. The sneering attitude towards these collective players is repugnant and completely lacking in self-awareness. What bloppers do is functionally no different to what attackers do: we disadvantage other players to advantage our team. Attackers do it by taking their land, bloppers do it by burning their peasants or sinking their ships, or debuffing them in other ways. Attackers in particular need to drop this superficial &#039;aggrieved victim&#039; mentality when they get blackopped: you are the enemy and you are not innocent or harmless. I know it&#039;s a different story when it comes to the balance at the top, because this is a top-down game and those actions can affect everyone, but for the overwhelming majority of players, you are in the trenches of a war game. Stop crying about it, it&#039;s just weird. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We all have at our disposal relatively cheap and accessible blops protection, it is so much easier to weather blops than it has ever been, and yet the blops screeching just keeps getting more and more shrill with every round. It is totally paradoxical. The more these players get what they want, the more dissatisfied they seem to be. Or perhaps they&#039;re just more encouraged, now they can see what works to achieve their goals? It&#039;s a genuine question because their behaviour makes no sense to me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My unsolicited advice to the GPC, and the solution to this confected illusion of a problem is this: stop listening to these degenerates. They are never going to stop pushing for blackops to be obsoleted in the game and they will never be satisfied until they can play in their excel simulator for 47 straight days. We don&#039;t have to be in constant panic about blackops every single round. We only need to tone down the reactivity to these public freakouts by the same people every round. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway. That felt cathartic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So where are we? We&#039;re almost at the end of this Roundfail because, after all the above was said and done, I realised I didn&#039;t really feel like playing OD anymore, so I kinda stopped paying attention. At this point in the story it&#039;s the end of Week 3, we&#039;ve had a few wars for the Halls of Knowledge and managed to hold onto it, and our realm&#039;s FAs were dead. Soup had deconverted with the new scion hero and had moved over to the dark side. Ivetza had followed but, not realising there was a new scion hero, had deconverted without using it. Whoops. Our realm&#039;s focus shifted from looking after their interests to trying to give new player and converter Shanulf a decent shot at having a good time, as well as Loki who had finished his convert as well. Converters, ever the bane of a blopper&#039;s existence, don&#039;t always get this level of care and consideration from a meanie blopper like me. I&#039;ve said before it&#039;s a bit like being handed someone else&#039;s baby and being forced to look after it, but this round I found a better analogy: converters are more like pears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll let Eddie Izzard explain - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PGPMGUGNsQ&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ripe for half an hour, most converters. But shanulf had been forgiving of the realm&#039;s warmongering in the early game and had eaten his fair share of blops already, and was still having a good time, so we were all happy to rally behind him and give as much support as we could. He was after all now our lead attacker. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;WEEK 4 - OUT OF STEAM&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shanulf was stuck for a while under Choo Choo 🚂 (#12)&#039;s op, and we were considering options for war.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...aaand this is as far as I got with the Roundfail. I had some other random notes, but nothing really worth extrapolating further on. Well, except for this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;2024-09-11 00:46:17	Hawk Tua on Yami (#6) invaded A$$, Grass or Plat - No one explores for free (Mithrandir) (#8) and captured 173 land.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mith not only fucked the community but also massively fed the runaway this round. Slow clap for Mith everybody. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;EPILOGUE&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Usually most rounds that suck have a bittersweet quality to them, and despite all of the noise surrounding this one, this round was no different. I still managed to have a good time within the bubble of our realm until the real fatigue with the trajectory of the game and the community set in. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There has always been two main ways to enjoy OpenDominion, at least in my view: there&#039;s the game itself, obviously, and there&#039;s the social side of it - the community of your realm, and also the wider community, which has something like four podcasts (and probably has two new ones by the time you finished reading this sentence), people who contribute Roundfail stories, and groups that play other games together. From a blackopper playstyle perspective, the game has been in a pretty terrible state for about five rounds now, and I&#039;ve heard through the grapevine that there are yet further plans to remove blops rankings and cap spywiz ratios, and it just continues to get worse every round. Blackops are like a scab and players can&#039;t stop picking at it. All of the blackoppers I know are social players, they can (and have) put up with a lot of these unpleasant changes because ultimately it&#039;s still fun to play games with friends. Some still even hold that view in spite of this round. But for me, when the community turns out to be a toxic wasteland, there&#039;s no incentive to play the game, and there&#039;s no reason to stick around. That&#039;s where I&#039;m at.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe I&#039;ll check back in 5-10 rounds and see if the community managed to find a sensible solution to blops. I have little confidence that it&#039;s capable of doing so, and even less so now that I&#039;m not around to explain why all of vinn&#039;s wild-eyed gameplay-feedback suggestions are bad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To my pack and my realmies, I&#039;m sorry I didn&#039;t manage to play the full round, but you guys all know the reasons. My first ever abandon, and it does feel like letting the team down. I did think about messaging Wurst and asking him where to find the abandon button for the memes, but I found it easily enough after all. It&#039;s on the Government page, for anyone wondering. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To my blops bros forever in the trenches, in particular Damdred, Swamp Fox, Cronel, AgFX and Saccora, I&#039;ll miss playing with you guys. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And finally, last and most definitely least, I&#039;ll end on this note:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mithrandir sucks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TL;DR&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

Gnome is a slow and steady race that is quite solid. They are unique because their elite units have low platinum costs but extremely high ore costs. However, these ore costs cannot be reduced in any way. This means running extremely high amounts of Ore Mines because their defensive elite troops increase in power based on mountain percentage. Gnome is easiest to play as explorer or converter, but the more experienced and daring might also try it as a full round attacking race. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Wonder Discovery and HP ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first wave of wonders will appear at the start of the round with a starting power of 150,000 for tier 1 and 75,000 for tier 2.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An additional wonder will appear every 48 hours beginning on day 6 with a starting power dependent on the wonder tier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once rebuilt, wonder power depends on the damage dealt to it by your realm and time into the round given as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;min(37500 * DayInRound, 2 * OriginalWonderPower) * \frac{DamageDealtByRealm}{OriginalWonderPower}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wonder HP will then be rounded down to the nearest 10,000 HP&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The total number of wonders that will be discovered and appear in any given round is a max of 40% of the number of active realms. If there are 29 realms, 12 wonders would spawn as per&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;40% * 29 = 11.6 \approx12&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Attacking and Destroying Wonders ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When attacking wonders, your offense is [[Offensive_power#Raw_OP|unmodded]] (except by morale) and always suffers 3.5% casualties regardless of any casualty modifiers (including immortal units). The only exception is [[Gnome]] Suicide Squads, which always suffer 50% casualties.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The spell Cyclone can also be used to damage a wonder. Cyclone damage is capped at 1 WPA and can only deal a maximum of 0.75% of a wonders base HP. Unlike other targeted spells, Cyclone cannot be repelled. Cyclone deals damage as given by&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;min(1.5 * WPA * Acres, WonderBaseHP*0.75%)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where WPA is capped at 1.0 for purposes of damage calculations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When attacking a neutral wonder, the damage is doubled but still capped at 0.75% of the wonder&#039;s base HP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If a dominion on 2,000 acres with 0.5 WPA casts cyclone on a 250,000 HP wonder, that dominion will deal damage of&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;min(1.5 * 0.5 * 2000, 250000*0.75%) = min(1500, 1875) = 1500&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
while a dominion running 0.75 WPA on the same land and casting on the same wonder will deal&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;min(1.5 * 0.75 * 2000, 250000*0.75%) = min(2250, 1875) = 1875&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Wonder Prestige ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each dominion that participates in destroying a wonder that is controlled by another realm is awarded [[prestige]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prestige is only awarded via troop damage to individual dominions as per&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;25 + \frac{TroopDamage}{DamageDealtByRealm} * 250&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To be eligible for prestige, a dominion must deal at least 2% of the realm&#039;s total damage to the wonder. Prestige gain is capped at 75, which means that max prestige gain occurs at 20% damage contribution. Sending more will not increase prestige gains.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cyclone damage does not award prestige.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;After you have registered for the round and realm placement has been completed, but before the [[round]] has started, you are under &#039;&#039;&#039;protection&#039;&#039;&#039; during which time you cannot [[invade]] or be invaded, or take any kind of [[magic]] or [[espionage]] against others or they against you. You can however access the Council for your [[Realm]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For players who join when the round starts, protection is synonymous with the first three days of the round.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
== Simulating ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because of the safety of being in protection, most players make sure to plan it as best as possible to ensure they reach the desired combination of land, building composition, [[OP]], and [[DP]] for their strategy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To do this, players create simulations (&amp;quot;sims&amp;quot;) of protection using the [https://github.com/Yami-10/OD-Simulator OpenDominion Simulator] originally created and maintained by Blackreign and now maintained and updated by Yami.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Conditions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To prevent/hinder cheating attempts the game will no longer allow Dominions to leave protection without a minimum amount of defense. There are two calculations for this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The first applies before OOP and is the same calculation that can be found on the invade screen: &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;10 x land-3300 OR 750&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; (whichever is greater)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The second applies after the round has already started, but you have yet to leave protection. When you try to advance your final tick you will receive an error message stating the minimum defense you will need for that size, which will change for each day in the round and as per the [[NPDs|NPD]] defense chart.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These conditions can be bypassed by selecting a QuickStart build which will also enable you to leave protection immediately, rather than the standard 24h wait period.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;After you have registered for the round and realm placement has been completed, but before the [[round]] has started, you are under &#039;&#039;&#039;protection&#039;&#039;&#039; during which time you cannot [[invade]] or be invaded, or take any kind of [[magic]] or [[espionage]] against others or they against you. You can however access the Council for your [[Realm]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For players who join when the round starts, protection is synonymous with the first three days of the round.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
== Simulating ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because of the safety of being in protection, most players make sure to plan it as best as possible to ensure they reach the desired combination of land, building composition, [[OP]], and [[DP]] for their strategy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To do this, players create simulations (&amp;quot;sims&amp;quot;) of protection using the [https://github.com/Yami-10/OD-Simulator OpenDominion Simulator] originally created and maintained by Blackreign and now maintained and updated by Yami.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Conditions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To prevent/hinder cheating attempts the game will no longer allow Dominions to leave protection without a minimum amount of defense. There are two calculations for this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The first applies before OOP and is the same calculation that can be found on the invade screen: &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;10 x land-3300 OR 750&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; (whichever is greater)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The second applies after the round has already started, but you have yet to leave protection. When you try to advance your final tick you will receive an error message stating the minimum defense you will need for that size, which will change for each day in the round and as per the [[NPDs|NPD]] defense chart.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These conditions can be bypassed by selecting a QuickStart build which will also enable you to leave protection immediately, rather than the standard 24h wait period.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;After you have registered for the round and realm placement has been completed, but before the [[round]] has started, you are under &#039;&#039;&#039;protection&#039;&#039;&#039; during which time you cannot [[invade]] or be invaded, or take any kind of [[magic]] or [[espionage]] against others or they against you. You can however access the Council for your [[Realm]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For players who join when the round starts, protection is synonymous with the first three days of the round.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
== Simulating ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because of the safety of being in protection, most players make sure to plan it as best as possible to ensure they reach the desired combination of land, building composition, [[OP]], and [[DP]] for their strategy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To do this, players create simulations (&amp;quot;sims&amp;quot;) of protection using the [https://github.com/Yami-10/OD-Simulator OpenDominion Simulator] originally created and maintained by Blackreign and now maintained and updated by Yami.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Conditions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To prevent/hinder cheating attempts the game will no longer allow Dominions to leave protection without a minimum amount of defense. There are two calculations for this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The first applies before OOP and is the same calculation that can be found on the invade screen: &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;10 x land-3300 OR 750&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; (whichever is greater)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The second applies after the round has already started, but you have yet to leave protection. When you try to advance your final tick you will receive an error message stating the minimum defense you will need for that size, which will change for each day in the round and as per the [[NPDs|NPD]] defense chart.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These conditions can be bypassed by selecting a QuickStart build which will also enable you to leave protection immediately, rather than the standard 24h wait period.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Here we go again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I randomed into a decent looking realm consisted of Downrightdave&#039;s pack (Sugarjon,Tidnab,Ed,Scruffier) and Sharkey&#039;s pack (Cerbrus87 and Karpatheo), along with other randoms Lamb and M4nus007. As Dave and Jon got fast attacking experience, I thought I could tag along if they decided to go fast. However, they decided to try slow attacking this round so that&#039;s that with that. I was initially planning to play dwarf and stuck to the plan since at this point not many races looked appealing to me for one reason or another. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I made a sim that went oop at 730a, hitting several hours later. The first hit was nothing fancy, just a bot. However I did manage to hit a few players for the next few hits and things looked quite decent from my point of view.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-15 07:36:30	Victorious on the battlefield, Goody Goody Gum Dorf (#7) conquered 28 land from I did your mom last Xmas (#0).&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-15 19:27:42	Victorious on the battlefield, Goody Goody Gum Dorf (#7) conquered 35 land from FishTea Nya Wah (#5).&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-16 07:14:38	Victorious on the battlefield, Goody Goody Gum Dorf (#7) conquered 33 land from ThatStillOnlyCountsAsOne (#2).&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-17 13:48:26	Victorious on the battlefield, Goody Goody Gum Dorf (#7) conquered 36 land from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (#0).&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-18 03:59:38	Victorious on the battlefield, Goody Goody Gum Dorf (#7) conquered 38 land from Best alive (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s just good ol&#039; bot bashing from this point so nothing noteworthy until a few days later where we started talking about getting a wonder. There was a some discussion and a vote which pretty much ended with the majority going for HCT. A rather odd choice if I had to say myself, but the realm reasoned that the full casualties suffered by invaders might make them look the other way. I&#039;m not completely sold but at the very least it looked like a wonder we could keep until the end of the round since there&#039;s just so much better choice out there. Kudos to M4nus for organizing the wonder hits and keeping track of the damages and such.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A couple bot hits later, this happened:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-25 15:48:34	rule #7: Let&#039;s Dance before Dessert (#12) has declared WAR on Life is Uncertain. Eat Dessert First. (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That came out as unexpected given we&#039;re not a top realm at that point, but did have some potential late threats. They sunk Tidnab who played troll, and for some reason decided to fireball me instead of our converters. It was relatively early in the round and my ratios were still weak so there&#039;s not much I could do but to endure the blasting and wait for rejuvenation to kick in. Apparently that didn&#039;t stop those fuckers either since they kept going. What a bunch of griefing morons. I decided that I&#039;m going to hit their realm as often as I could from that point.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the war was finally over, we found a target on low food in realm 3 (Damdred) and swarmed him, which lead to the poor guy getting piled on and ultimately abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-29 09:01:19	Victorious on the battlefield, Syl&#039;s Rainbow Sorbet (#7) conquered 96 land from Mortality Gives Meaning To Human Life, Captain. (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-29 09:59:19	Victorious on the battlefield, Goody Goody Gum Dorf (#7) conquered 85 land from Mortality Gives Meaning To Human Life, Captain. (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-29 10:35:28	Victorious on the battlefield, Leviathan Lemon Lime (#7) conquered 77 land from Mortality Gives Meaning To Human Life, Captain. (#3).&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-29 13:04:33	Victorious on the battlefield, Chilli Dark Chocolate (#7) conquered 68 land from Mortality Gives Meaning To Human Life, Captain. (#3).	&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-06-29 14:10:32	Victorious on the battlefield, Rocky T(r)oll Road (#7) conquered 67 land from Mortality Gives Meaning To Human Life, Captain. (#3).	&lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From this point I was able to hit just players, starting with a back to back hit on the fuckers from realm 12&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-07-02 05:19:27	Goody Goody Gum Dorf (#7) invaded I have the sauce! (#12) and captured 96 land.&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-07-04 13:59:19	Goody Goody Gum Dorf (#7) invaded Rule 2e: Thou Shalt Scan BarKodes Properly (#12) and captured 111 land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That felt good, but with realm 2 running away, things weren&#039;t looking kinda meh in the long run. Lamb and his sylvan was looking decent at least, and then...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*2024-07-06 20:02:37	Your mom: Now Servicing M̶e̶m̶b̶e̶r̶s̶ Everyone! (#11) has declared WAR on Taking Back Sundaes (#7).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ed who played wood elf ate the majority of the blops this time, but some fucker did some lightning bolts on me, what a twat. I dislike lightning the most for obvious reason (if you know me, that is), but at least I didn&#039;t get too many of them. Things were looking a little red afterwards. Dave found an aresless target, but entered #2 kobo (Rury)&#039;s range as a result and got smacked all in when his land arrived. I hit an inactive dark elf in 12 after the realm starved him, and Sharkey followed a few ticks later... only to get tripled as he left low dp. However, this event led later led to 9 vampire (Ivetza) being hit by 13 human (Chunk), after their realm sunk #2 lycanthrope (Erix). 2 and 13 were at war and 13 dwarf (Psychosophy) was able to get in the lyc&#039;s range after hitting Sharkey to assist with the sinking. Ivetza then threw tantrum and sui&#039;d #10 wood elf (Noah86), resulting in him donating tons of acres to many people including Lamb, Dave, and Jon. So maybe, that sui by Sharkey somehow worked out for the better. It&#039;s kinda funny how things in dom worked sometimes eh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon enough it&#039;s crunch time, and it&#039;s only a matter of time until I&#039;m dead due to the race&#039;s inefficiencies. Lamb was looking really strong after he got a back to back hit on #6 sylvan (Empoy), but ultimately he got screwed by #4 human (Weaser) who decided that it&#039;s a good idea to hit a contender while also feeding himself to #2 kobo, ultimately sealing the win for him. #2 icekin (Mithrandir) then just sat and train massive op to prevent the other humans from sending, leading to the usual boring last day. Lamb was doing similar thing although he&#039;s hoping to get back at Weaser. With a lot of uncertainty about what is safe, I decided to hit #5 merfolk (Martinum) for my last hit, which earned me a personal best finish at 5775 (explored 1 acre to round it up), but ultimately I&#039;m once again short of the elusive 6k finish. I probably shoulda waited for the last few hours as #12 troll (Zar) then sent with a hittable dp and hitting him would have gave me enough land to reach 6k. Such is life. Just when I thought disable would happen early again, it didn&#039;t. Collusion, I&#039;d say!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All in all, it was a somewhat roller coaster of a round which ended on a rather bittersweet note. I&#039;ll just blame the fuckers in realm 12 cause they deserved every bit of hate for being twats. Thanks to all my realmies for the ops, support, and such, and thank you for reading.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Until next time.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;Coming together is a beginning, keeping together is progress, working together is success.&amp;quot; - Henry Ford&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When building a team I wanted a group that would come together, keep together, and work together. I wanted a group that had multiple ways to win, but I also wanted people who were going to be great teammates and provide for a fun round regardless of what happens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had third choice of what pick to take. 1st and 8th pick were taken. As I decided on where I wanted to be I saw a clear top three, Wurst, Gothia and Rio. I’ve never played with Wurst or Gothia, so I don’t have a perfectly informed opinion on them. They both have potential to win any round they are in, but they could also fade fast or abandon me. Rio said he wasn’t going to have as much time this round so I didn’t want to try to get him 2nd or 3rd when he could possibly slide. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went with the 7th pick, knowing I’d get two top ten picks. My immediate thoughts went to Fett as my co captain. I’ve played with him twice and both times our realm won. He is the ultimate teammate. He can play any way, he can sim, he literally knows the game inside and out. My fear was that his real life friend Cronel would take him with the 4th pick. In fact, clear back on Valentine’s Day I sent this message to my brother, Sugarjon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:DownrightDave1.jpg|488x331 px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This dream came true when Cronel announced Faith as his co-captain, who may have actually been number one on my wish list. However, he mentioned that he didn’t take Fett because he was really busy and didn’t want to be a co-captain. He had suggested to Cronel that he go with someone else this round. When it got to my pick, I thought about if I should take Fett anyway and make him be a co-captain or to wait and hope to get him with my second pick. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I knew that going with an explorer in the first round, and someone that’s on the other side of the world from me, may not be the most popular choice as a co-captain. However, I knew how much I enjoyed having Zedijar as a teammate in the past and that he brought so much to the table that I wanted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I ended up getting the two guys I wanted, just in the opposite order. Fett was there for my pick, and in case he was taken in the two picks between mine I some great options like former pack mate, two time winner, and good friend Bobbo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I then prepared to get ready to take Tidnab and Jon with my next picks, which seemed so far away at this point. To my dismay, two picks before it was my turn, B took Jon in a surprise move. Honestly, I thought I might be reaching taking him five picks later than he went. I had seen the Dave, Fett, Jon trio being similar to the Fett, Merf, Bobbo trio this round. But it just wasn’t meant to B. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I knew I’d need to take Tidnab with my first pick, because he often packs with Swamp Fox who had the two picks after me. Even though I wasn’t able to get Jon, I was able to get the top three people I had wanted going into the draft. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With Tidnab I got another great teammate that can help do it all. With me, Fett, and Tidnab, I waited to see how mad I made Swamp Fox for taking Tidnab and prepared to meet with Zedijar since I got thrown for a bit of a loop not being able to get Jon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I was looking, I noticed that there were some other great explorers on the board still, which made me wonder how far Zedijar may have fallen. However, Swamp Fox took two of the amazing explores I had really wanted to continue to fall to be my other ops guys. While I was disappointed, I wasn’t going to take another explorer here anyway and went with Disco. This began a series of head scratch picks as people wondered who the heck I was picking and what I was doing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:DownrightDave2.png|400x350px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:DownrightDave3.png|400x350px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After getting Disco I sat back for a long wait until our turn again. When it got close to my pick we targeted a few people, including DaveTheGoliath, because it seemed like I should have all of the Dave’s on Team Dave. So of course he got taken right before my pick. Of the people Zedijar and I had talked about before he went to sleep only one was left, so I grabbed him to more confused looks, Weaser. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
While some of the captains didn’t know anything about Weaser, there was someone who very much did. My brother stealing nemesis B. Also, Volv had also been discussing taking him with his next pick. So while my last two picks may not be mainstream names, or have people choosing me to have had the best draft. I feel like I got two very good under the radar picks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I waited for Zedijar to wake up and after we saw who Swamp Fox took decided to take a swing on Palaiyot. Neither of us knew a ton about him. We took a solid look at my current pack mate Matty, but 2 of Palaiyot’s last three rounds he hit over 6k acres as a Troll. To get that at this point in the draft just seemed to be too good to pass on.&lt;br /&gt;
Then came B storming in trying to take Weaser from me...for the opportunity to pick someone else when I’d already drafted someone since Weaser. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I said I’d be happy to trade Weaser for Jon. He said he’d be willing to trade Jon for Fett. I said he could keep Jon lol. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I also said I’d be willing to do a trade of Weaser and Palaiyot for Jon and his current pick. I figured I’d take Matty since I’d already been close to picking him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Finally B decided that he had no leverage, and maybe realized that I actually chose Weaser on purpose, and he made his pick taking Matty who is a great pick for him.&lt;br /&gt;
I now realized that my possible overreach for an explorer in the beginning had led to a lot of attacker picks, and a lot of people on the other side of the world from me. I had two players I knew would be great later on that should be under the radar because they were both new that would be perfect to have Zedijar mentor and were going to wrap our team up perfectly. But they weren’t as secret as I had hoped as several people wanted Scruffier before he made it to me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also realized that my other under the radar explorer and ops person was also over in Europe and I really needed some help with ops here in America. I looked at Alison, Dean, and Rush2008 and all said low activity on their entries, but they were really the only American based people that were doing any kind of exploring left. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went with Rush because I always like having a Rush in my realm. I’d played with him at some point, and he’d done a great podcast recently so I rushed in and got him.&lt;br /&gt;
I then got my secret weapon Noren, glad Grapes didn’t poach him from me because he was new in our realm this round and we were the only two captains who knew anything about him. I can’t think of someone better to be molded by Zedijar this round. Noren has been the perfect new player. He asks questions, listens to feedback, and figured things out well enough to take care of himself most of the time. He did lose some acres recently, but he learned a ton this round and I think is an amazing pick at this point.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This concluded my draft. There were only 78 people that declared, so Swamp Fox and I didn’t get stuck with the last two picks which I for one did not mind. I was very happy with my group of 9.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
All in all, I had a lot of fun. I didn’t have a perfect draft, but I have no worries about anyone on my team. I think we will be low drama and high fun with players being relevant all round long. There are a couple of teams that look scarier than us, but with round dynamics we have players in every area that have a chance to win this thing. Zedijar will finish in the top ten. I’ll be relevant for a while. I expect Weaser to win the entire game. I see us having a very successful round.&lt;br /&gt;
