    In that circumstance, you can understand the allure of botting, can you not?
    If you spent thousands of dollars, utilizing holiday costs $1 per day, or $365 for an entire year. Other than a major hospitilization of yourself or a loved one, or the destruction of your place of residence due to acts of nature, most "unforseeable real life circumstances" would resolve themselves to the point of play time increasing beyond 1-2 hours a day within a maximum of 3 months, with most being resolved between 7 and 30 days. Thousands of dollars spent. $7 - $30 for holiday. Drop, meet bucket. Bucket, drop.

    Please stop trying to justify this stuff at all costs. It's offensive. I just went through 3 months of my Dad being hospitalized, getting back home, and then having him die in his sleep. I didn't resort to botting. I put my account in holiday using the cents that were on my account and/or reduced my troop levels so that farming was more effective for the reduced number of hours I could / felt like putting into it.

    Enough with the excuses...

    But then again, you have proven in the past that you have no real battle knowledge whatsoever, so what am I trying to prove.
    Love to see that stand up to phract and/or (depending on what defense set up you have) archer waves. Mech go bye bye very quickly when hit by ponies. Mech waves only take out the fodder, in other words the layers (except scouts and that's only after all the other layers are dead).

    As for the you can only win by overkill you've just proven how little you know too.

    Enough of this anyway this thread is about captcha not battle mechs.

    Default hmmmm

    Ok heres my 2 cents worth

    Its no effected my server YET, however this "test" will become yet another evony fail.

    Where there is a will there is a way. This will only have a short term effect and in this process you will punish the legit players. Because it will affect them as well.

    I see tons of charge backs in Evony's future.

    BTW, Dawnseeker you claim Evony is not concerned with the money loss and cares to improve the quality of the game. Then look thru the forums of all the people willing to pay a monthly fee for a NON Coining server.
    We all know that wont happen cause of the amount of income a new server brings in, but a pay only for server access would improvement.
    Oh gawd I have to make a new sig again -.-

    OMG

    You're completely clueless, you don't fight ever, do you. Otherwise you would at least you know you can't attack with ponies/phracts at range. Do you even play the game, I'm seriously beginning to have doubts. Aren't you just hired by Evony to spread their word. Seems so, they have no game knowledge either.

    You can send a thousand 125k phract waves against my 15k ballis and 10k pults, and you won't be able to kill a single pult or balli ever. That's the truth, no matter what nonsense you think about battle mechanics. Because nonsense it is. And no, archer waves, won't make a dent either.

    Edit: Sure give negative rep, how classless.

    No offense, but your attempts to justify cheating at any cost are offensive. Wait...how can I say no offense and claim offense?

    The only reason you think that the examples being given are not relevant is because you have a completely different moral compass, or you are just attempting to play devil's advocate. Either way, it's getting ridiculously annoying, given what I've been through the past few months and did NOT resort to botting, nor had any temptation to do so.

    Sure come try me out.

    And lose the one phract wave you are able to send because of food constraints.

    Risk is a "war game", and it has rules. Dungeons and Dragons can also be considered to be a "war game" of sorts, and it has rules. Starcraft and all of the other Blizzard games are war games, and they all have rules. In the instance of that, if you went to Blizzcon and they had a tournament, and you cheated during the tournament because they felt as you feel, that the objective was to win without any respect for the rules, what would you expect to happen? Someone to tell you "gg" (good game)?

    But would anyone really buy Risk if you have to spend countless hour in setting up the board so you can even play and have to keep the board on table doing boring stuff countless hours every damn single day before you can even think about being somewhat competitive in it?

    No one would. It's supposed to be fun, Evony is designed to be boring and repetitive 99% of the time, and that 1% fun that is left is screwed by stupid things like flat clearance.
