i expected from a fam like righelli, (history, experience) plan this situation better..

They obv knew they were gonna get countered.. then why shoot? its suicide

and only idiots suicide..

fail righelli.. :w
we tried gathering more fams, but they werent do be found. so, we figured to shoot anyways. this game is almost done, so be it, we all knew the probable outcome and we are all happy with it. If we want to shoot an unwinnable war, really thats our business. No righelli i spoke with had a problem with it. Yeah, it was not righelli's shining moment, this version was not ours. Personally, I was quite uncomfortabe sitting so high on the ranks. We didnt make the right bloods i guess, we werent in the right alliances. what is one to do? Dinosaurs maybe...
and you, at one moment criticize us for not anticipating counters, and then someone else criticizes us for not shooting more. Shit man, every step of the way we knew a counter was gonna come. wtf can u do about counters when the majority wants u dead? we were on borrowed time. Why u think Evil ranked with us? He knew Conflict wasnt gonna make it back this version. he was smart, he knew it was borrowed time. But when u are addicted to this stupid game, sometimes u play even when u know u cant win. I guess it is sick huh? Yes, it was quite boring this version. We were all bored. ili is weak now, if someone wants to finish them, go ahead. otherwise dont do it, either way the world still spins....

i respect that. admitting stuff being honest.

i agree that after the vaffa war.. (presi etc die ing) you guys lost the version there.. i don't know if it was possible but with asfu and presi together i think you guys could ve closed the version.. but whatever whats done is done..

the thing shocks me the most is the #2 fam.. if a fam like that becomes #2 it means only one thing..

c ya next version :w
oh i understand exactlywhat u are saying. the problem we had was pres was blooded to dig..we werent.. maybe we shouldve been.. it screwed us up. vaffa... they were with conflict and krays (bot our bloods) but we ended up on the other side. even with our good bloods. maybe u an blame us for that. bt then again, vaffa has been an old enemy of us from way back several version (personally, maybe we should rethink that, if they can). old history has fucked us up ( and i am only speaking as myself right now)....but here we are, arguing and agreeing at the same moment. your anonymous atm, and so have i been a time ot 2 :) so no problem there... i dont know what perspective u speak from (maybe give at least a family?) the pres war... righelli was very much rdy to shoot in it. it wasdifficult in the top for that. but, we woud get shot down quick, and pres still would go down. so then we thought, we can shoot on nazdro when they we getting shot (a tradional enemy and easy choice) hey, it wouldve put us in another war here in beyond for some high fives i guess.. but whatvever ,that wouldve been easy and then a counter woulve killed us anyways... and its kinda weird, but i was rooting for nazdro, another example of how history keeps like-minds apart.... u know, we considered shooting with nazdro? thats sacrilidge right? righelli and nazdro? but we were thinking of ili at the time.... not cuz i hate ili, cuz i do not.. we just were not bloods and were so high. it was just what was necessary i guess. i love all u guys tbh, cya next time or not, no hating needed

BTW i made that post because ever thought just maybe, that person was asked to leave the family by there tops until they go back up? Again sometimes its best to shhh.. get back in the kitchen idd.
i hear ya man. Sometimes its just thinking longterm. I recall several version ago, it might have even been a dm version. Righelli got its ass totally shot off. But we had a brug that had been a buster at one point. We got him saved as the fam went down. He caught all kinds of shit for not shooting and "going down with the ship" I felt sorry for him, cuz he easily would have shot and died for us. But he had a great account. He bouced around for awhile, caught hell everytime. But guess what? We went back up and he was a great don account for us. We stcuk around awhile too the second time. Sometimes things arent as simple as they seem...

how come I can't see General Comments and rumors article? I see everything else but that one. When I go to latest comments, I can see the posts made in general comments, but I cant click on it. Even when I search articles, I cant find it. I'm using IE8 btw
If you see a house icon in the menu, click on it. If not, make sure the dropdowns say "All types" and "Any version" and the left arrow is greyed out.
that was weird. I didnt have the house icon and it was set to all types. But what I did see the "sort by comments" icon. I clicked on it, and then the house icon reappeared. So then I clicked on the house and now General Comments is back. Dunno why, but its fixed anyways, thx!

I personally think that the Dutch suck just as much ass at English than the Turks.


Fail :')

Joking about the lack of English skill of other people only works if you don't mess up your very first sentence.

The "than" is just wrong. "Than" is a subjunction and does not fit into that sentence.

I assume you wanted to say the Dutch suck as much at English as the Turks do.


Like in your English is as bad as Icelandic football.

I hope you learnt something, My next tutorial will be about than, and when to use it.

See you then.
And you lack the ability of seeing the "soul" of his comment, which was not mocking people with lower English skills. Maybe read the debate once (more).
I love the arrogancy here, riihgt.
this all scares me oh so much, as a native english speaker, the pressure is just too great...what if i dont choose the right grammatical conjugation? what price omertabeyond price shall i pay?! Nevertheless, english nazis can kiss it! But, sometimes turks can be humorous in their english, and thats not a bad thing! How can I complain when I know not a single proper sentence of turk! And I love Turkey, and the Turks, you guys hold the torch over there, be proud! (but umm, make your fam Cm's more coherent for us single language guys!

And, furthermore, if you took those 10-15 people and created a U.S. national team with them; I'm sure they would be highly competitive (and, honestly, probably dominate) within the world soccer scene.
I'm not a big football/soccer fan, but you're really wrong there. I'm sorry, but it is arrogant to think that America can become the #1 in some sport if they put effort in it. Football is one of those sports that has to be in your blood and has to live among the people. It's just something that we Europeans have, and, as you indeed state, America doesn't. I don't believe for a second that if you would take your top athletics into a hypothetical world where they were trained to be football players they would be able to beat Holland, Spain, England, Italy or Brazil soon. It needs decades for professional clubs to rise and training schemes based on your population to be developed.

Tl;dr: long crappy post from a Dutch guy saying Holland pwns atm in football, but basically says nothing.

It was actually me who said Americans would pwn in soccer/football if they turned their sports machine towards it and the reason I said so was I believed it to be true, now you've set out your credentials with your tldr ;) lemme explain why i think what I think.

I have dual citizenship you might think it pointless but it means I dont' need a visa to work in america when I spend the large part of my summer there, and I do work there, in soccer camps, and teaching soccer. Andin my spare time I play soccer, there are loads of small/medium/big kids boy and girl alike who are actually talented with soccer, as well as other sports such as hockey, basketball american football etc etc.

Most people can master a sport if they pay enough attention to it, its just a matter of training, however some people as we know are talented at certian things. From what I've seen i dont think america has any more talented people than other countries, or any less, I just think its an average spread etc, but there are more people in the USA than there are in any other european country, so if you get say 1 talented soccer player per million, than the USA is going to produce more than other european countries, because of the more people.


However your other point about fast moving people moving into athletics instead of soccer is a good point :), which is why soccer camps have a good purpose, take these wanna be sprinters, none of whom are jamaican so they aren't going to win the olympic 100m. And being fast in soccer (see I'm getting americanised... ) does definately help ;)

I dont know really who is right and who is wrong, but I will watch with interest the progress of various clubs, players and youth players!

Btw, anyone in the Grand Rapids area of Michigan is welcome to play soccer with me!

P.S this is aimed at Octavello and Josephc and other American players, can I ask, how the FUCK are your baseball players so fucking fat :P I was watching this black guy bowl in baseball in a screen in applebees a few days ago, I think it was some chicago team vs some other team, and gosh the size of the gut on that guy..... btw, Applebees so so amazing <3 esp karoake nights, I love america I really do :D
lol, yeah well, I guess baseball is a mostly stationary sport, with just moments of running. A lot of time is just sitting on a bench eating sunflower seeds. I guess the emphasis is on power hitting, not running nowadays. You know, I was a skinny fast kid and played soccer when not running track or cross country for several yrs until I was about 12 yrs old. I then moved to florida and it was all about college and nfl football. Soccer was a laughable sport not offered in my junior high or high school. I think thats the situation in many places in the USA. But it prolly a moot point since so many of us americans are fatasses even as kids nowadays. We got some issues with big macs etc :)

Josephc, football (yes football, fuck soccer, say american football or w.e) Football = Foot + Ball means you use your feet to kick a ball, not like your sport where you mostly use your hands and pick up a egg shapped thing, so call it american football or HandEgg w.e you prefer.

Anyways top football players dont need to be tower's of muscles or top athleets like u call it to be great, check the best football players in the world , like messi and so many others that are small, they just need the technic. Calling "real sports" to those american sports where u spend more time in breaks and half times so u can get fatter and fatter with ur hotdogs and burgers is rly a joke. Football is the king sport not those american franchises like HandEgg or Baseball that only you play so you can call yourselfs world champions even if only america plays it.


+1

Fuck off all arrogant American People
come on people, we Americans aren't trying to screw with your football. For the most part, we dont even care about it. Yes, your football is a world sport, the biggest sport and that's cool. Your football players are great athletes and they also have great technique (the better players). Just cuz you're not some musclebound giant or a 350 lbs fatass (as many NFL football players are), it doesnt mean you arent an athlete. Your football players need great endurance to run around for such extended periods, not just anyone can do it. So basically, both sports, require skill and physical prowess, the physcal prowess is just not exactly the same. In our NFL football (National Football League) we have a Superbowl where a winner is determined. We dont call that team a world champion, so just relax man. Soccer will never be huge over here IMO. Our schools can only afford so many different sports, and soccer is low on the totem pole. If we had scores of children wanting to become professional soccer players, I think we could have a shot at being a great world team in the future. But we dont have scores of kids wanting that. Relax fellas, enjoy your soccer in peace.

Even MORE suggestions

Reward families for killing 19% [70]

I wonder how that would be put into practice. Any suggestions or ideas?

No kill skill for individual people but for families, so the more kill experience the family got, the stronger the members are shooting. Will also mean less sisterfamilies cause u will be weaker when u shoot!


This also adds incentive for attacking families to finish wars. You need to completely destroy a family otherwise they will still maintain their previously built up ks bonus. i like this one.

But what if you shoot with more fams at one fam? You devide the points?
sounds really cool, but knowing how omerta implements things, it will never work right and just end up with tons of 502 errors. But it seems great, promotes bigger single fams (anyone remember 350 member fams?) and ir promotes shooting and finishing a war. The offline strength should be changed at the same time

On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

Been had a little horsy named Paul Revere
Just me and my horsy and a quart of beer
Riding across the land, kicking up sand
Sheriff's posse on my tail cause I'm in demand

can people stay on topic plz. the below exchange belongs more in general comments/rumors... if it even belongs here at all.

what Mickay said, or i have to start removing posts :x

Agreed. Who are all these little kiddies standing up and acting like the Gods of Omerta? What have any of your families really accomplished?

Its time to sit down kids and let the real men of Omerta play :p

who are you?

I guess you don't realize how much noob you look by asking that...
I never talked to ReBorN, he doesn't even know who I am so I'm not deffending some friend..
He was the owner of the #b\n channel and if you don't know what that is or what was it good for then you should just stfu and gtfo as he told you to.

Imo.

I see this kinda posts more and more here, last time also @ arcanine some newbie telling he didnt achieve anything in this game and now at Reborn, stupid new players i could say reborn did allot in this game and had big accounts and was don of lucchese allot of times but I guess Erm doesnt even know what lucchese is....
#boozenarcs......sigh....that was some fun times, not knowing the price til someone actually flew and entered it in the channel. During late hours, sometimes we just never did get to know the prices in all cities, unless someone would take the gamble and fly blindly. Made a few friends in that channel.

Oh, and how about Papgenos OC calculator. I think I still have the old link in my favorites at home.

Err from what I remember when I was in crew we had a test server. All new features that were implemented we were alerted to before their actual implementation and we were tasked with testing and reviewing them on the secondary server and then giving our input. Either things have changed or the author of that was just oblivious to her true role. Also anyone know her position? If she was HD or PC or even LM, it's doubtful they would want to trust her with much responsibility. They dont have a very thorough vetting process for crew. Hell I made it xD
We have no clue who it is, so how do you know it's a "her"?
I said I think it's sparhawk..

He was pretty vocal about Sluggs and how much he hated him.
And he thought Brando was out of his mind introducing him when the majority were against him.
He also joined the channel in support of players against sluggs...

So, all signs point him Sparhawk.
Bottom line though is that this person was just an unpaid "volunteer". The somewhat lengthy but well-written note was more than likely ignored. He/she could've just said "You suck, I quit" and it would get filed the same way, I am guessing. Omerta just finds another unpaid volunteer to fill the spot. But it was an interesting read, nevertheless.
