Side Story:
So here I am starting out in early with like 48 enemy capitals within pissing distance. I start exploring. I fine Van first and then Helheim. Now I'm thinking F$&%(#( G#$@ D#%^!!!
I know I have to attack someone early because it's just way too crowded. Then I find Abysia. Now... see... I know I should attack Abysia. They suck. I mean EA Abysia just blows. Even if they have a double bless - its probably not as bad as Van or Helheim. So I'm thinking "Kill Tyrant" (whom I like, but someone has to kill him.).
Then I see that its *coobe* that plays Helheim. The coobe that stales. The coobe that once, months ago, broke a NAP with me in another game causing me to get eliminated (though I defeated him). The calls for vengence rose in me. I couldn't help myself. I had figured out his bless wasn't so bad... I thought... if I attack quickly enough with longbows I stood about a 50/50 shot of eliminating him. Even though Abysia was probably a better bet I attacked Helheim.
Luck was with me and I had my vengeance. The desire for blood was quenched. Everything is a little better in the world
Life was good. Even if I go down now... I'll still feel good about this game.
So to those that think the metagame doesn't matter... take my irrational behavior to heart.
