| 10 Million is an average of 100K pop per member, an amazing accomplishment!! My heartiest congratulations. |

We do have one hell of a breeding program going for mules & poodles! (& other assorted lovely creatures like Starrys & even some monsters like the infamous Lawnys) ;) |

Congratulations to all Harmless. Also, how does this number compare to the crow confederation? I am too lazy to go add anything up. Still, well done for having all the population in one alliance! ------------- http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/external/alliance.asp?AllianceID=401" rel="nofollow - ~SouthSeasPirates~ |

Crowlitions are at 18,212,552 currently, so we're nearing double their size. Though that's across 6 separate alliances, so for H? to have more than half the pop of 6 alliances is very impressive.

Yeah, but like 50% of all Crows over 50k population are inactive. And most of the rest of them are alts. Or just plain incompetent. Plus they don't get along with each other, so they should hardly count as a confederation. Really, it's more like H? is 10x their size. /me waves These are not the Crows you are looking for.

...and this is from the a leading member of ncrow whose alt is the leader of Hugcr. What chance is there for the rest of us if a player like Rill, who seeks so much influence, suddenly starts dissing the Crow family? I would just like to say that Calaquendi is an active alliance. Which is neither incompetent nor relies on inactive accounts to maintain itself. |

Glith, i think she was making a joke that we're trying to put ourselves down in order to pretend that we aren't a threat sort of thing, hence the *these aren't the crows your looking for* ------------- Fool's watch the land when the problem is in the heart. |

My Tappertab scouts claim that there are also lots of Empressing Motos, but that could be a rumour -- anything published by my consulate is in essence disinformation, otherwise they wouldn't publish it. Midriver's commander Harmless, a heroic slinger in training to become a tortoise, salutes.

Harmless officially once and for all passes the Giant Bullseye to The Crows. All trolls, anti-establishmentarians, disaffected others, bedwetters, etc, please address your ire at "The Man" to the Crow alliances instead of H? from now on. Nobody can ever argue that we are the "dominant" force in Illy with half the population. God that feels good! ;) |

| Good job on 10 mill pop.I still think H? is by far strongest alliance (confed of alliances included) in Illy. |
Posted By: Rill
Date Posted: 30 May 2012 at 18:03
Sorry Kumo, it's not going to work. As you saw in my follow-up post, according to our math H? still has 10 times Crow's population. Not to mention 100 times more armies. Plus, we squabble with each other on the forums. No one can possibly take us seriously. /me hastily pastes "kick me now" sign back on H's door.

Ta Luna. /me thinks several people here are trying to down-play their own alliances and up-play H? Don't blame them tbh - nobody shows their cards before they play them. |

Thanks, Sloter. And you are entitled to your opinion, but it is perfectly rational to believe, in Illyriad, that having twice the population of another makes you a bit more powerful, don't you think? |

Well, tournaments still show H? as quite strong and best coordinated... and the crowalition as vulnerable to friendly fire... If one third of the population fights against a second third of the population, and the third third has some inactives in it, the Crowalition seems to end up with less Pop than H?  Well, fun aside.... both groups are strong, and I wouldn't dare to bet on any side, if we would have a hypothetical battle between those blocks.

Sheesh, you guys have no sense of humour. That particular account was in fact me, since I felt very bored at the time and Rill's comment about Harmless being the mightiest alliance made me think of trolls. And I thought, what the heck? Apparently I was too convincing. Anyway, congrats on reaching ten million population, although you have lost some apparently. |

Maybe it would be one of those wars where both sides lose.

Ye it is only 9,991,956 population now... See H? isn't as powerful as everyone makes out. |

Date Posted: 30 May 2012 at 20:24
I am thinking that misusing the power you possess does not make you any less powerful... :) And let's not kid ourselves, its not just the total population, but the qty of members that is the power here...

How is member count a reflection of power? 1,000 members with 10 troops each is not stronger than 10 members with 10,000 troops. |
