Not to flame any goodhearted true europe players here, but 8/10 of the last times i went into tombs, the second we started, someone spammed something in French, and then left. So, as everyone knows, the chain reaction starts, and 3 people are left going wtf? One of the times, TWO left at the same time after saying something in French!

What the hell is that? I'm not a fan of secret euro spies leaving groups just to screw our chances. L'm sorry to anyone who takes offense but im pissed right now that out of 10 times 8 times this has happened.

Somehow, I doubt this would affect those oddball guild groups, where all 8 people are wearing the same cape.

Yeah, now that i'm not trying to grab a group in tombs anymore, i've cooled down, and I admit your right with the guild thing. Esoteric is a guild halls group if i'm not mistaken, and they are exceptional at winning HoH.

But BLAHHH, i wish i had a screenshot of two guys saying 'something avoir something', blah, i don't know french, but it was like that!

It's indeed very often that you see a PUG win HoH I'm sure Esoteric, Czech Legends (?), The Wrong Guild and any other euro guilds that kept winning HoH tonight are most afraid of their PUG competitors and are doing everything to sabotage them!

And someone dropping out of a PUG is such a rare occurrence in GW ...

This thread is great comedy. I feel the pain of the OP, but damn, European infiltrators?
I'm a European on US servers, but if I would fight, I won't fight to loose.
this just made me laugh.

Interesting. A post saying that Europeans are so desperate to win HoH and gain favour that a few are sneaking over, joining PUGs in the USA and losing intentionally....

...or maybe it's just something which just happenned. Let's see, with a strong European guild such as Esoteric Warriors who always seem to be the first to knock America out of Favour, when faced with opposition in the form of a PUG of strangers, that there is very little contest....

Also, these spies would have to change back to the European servers once their "Infiltration mission" had been achieved, and this is something that they can only do 5 times. Hardly seems worth it.

Stupid statement. Thanks for stirring up xenophobic antagonisms. My guess is that they were so pissed off to be with you they felt compelled to leave the group.

All people should change to the amrican servers and explore ALL arears of the game in Unity. If history taught us one thing it is that people who think the favor of the gods is on them tend to do drastic things. Gods giving out favors never unite, they divide what should be the strongest MMORPG community of them all.

So we get extra lag, and completely screw over the idea of the Tombs.

THis is f'ing hilarious. Amazed that it took this long for the European infiltrators theory to spiring up. A conspiracy where Europeans send players into American teams and deliberately lose at HoH.

Thats bloody hillarious.

So Europe finally figured out what us Americans have been doing all along. We just use Ebonics instead of French.

I will now officially reveal the TRUE reason for Europe's success in HoH.

Just before the European team head in, they each ***message edited by moderator***, and then they ***message edited by moderator***, so that whenever an opposing team ***message edited by mderator,***, all the Europeans have to do is just ***message edited by moderator***, which guarantees victory. Ingenious!!

report of an insider:

all of us in europe has two versions of GW, one to play on EU-server, one to play on US-server. Half of us ALWAYS infiltrate PUG, but also guilds on the US-server.
And even if US has the FoG, have you ever noticed that most of the groups in UW failed due to rushers or other 'silly' mistakes? That's our strategie!

But wait, why in hell I am still sitting in New York ...

Of course! *smacks head* It's all so obvious!

And naturally the next step will be for Europe to claim Canada as part of their continent, and Canada will willingly leave North America. Then some idiots in the US get the idea to invade Canada to bring it back under the NA affiliation.. and suddenly, we've got WW3.

YAY! WE'RE DOOMED!

Dude, you're messed up. You come up with some conspiracy theory about Europeans sabotaging the WaW? OMFG, get a grip. I'm not a European player, but I've never seen someone post something so absolutely rediculous in my life. (Except for some post last night I read, and one a few nights ago too, but anyways...) In all honesty, I think the Europeans are learning from their mistakes.
