yeah gg to everyone, this was the most fun i've had playing for a long time, although i think trying to stick with one alliance the whole game and assuming that dle was ok because we'd been allies since cycle 1 was maybe a mistake :P. in hindsight there were a few signs that maybe he wasn't just working with team "bad to the bone" balla but i don't think they were enough to really see what was going on so well played dle :)
also literally everyone i spoke to C1 was attribute C like me which was hilarious
pokeguy: you basically need to either be lucky and get selected by someone or proactive early and pick up people (which from what i remember you had problems with due to irc issues). i know that i was basically willing to join whichever alliance spoke to me first by the end of c1 because i was a scrub about getting in contact with people early and i suspect i wasn't alone in that regard
