Hmmm...I see a parallel here.

Biggest change in raiding since a year ago, when I joined is...

...I'm now one of the fastest button-men in TBH.
I also like to think that I am, indeed, rather better at this then when I first signed up.

Shame my connection isn't stable enough to let me get back into that right now. I had fun with you guys. :P

You really need to get that fixed. You could've come and played with us tonight. 28 regions. It was fun. :P

Gee, thanks for reminding me. I'm probably not going to, though, mostly because I'm going to be shipping out for BT here in the next month or two. So it's going to be a while before I get back into it. I might pop in soon for a couple tags and just spectate.

Congrats guys. 28 regions (even a dozen regions) is a fantastic achievement, no matter what some of my former 'defenders-in-arms' might think of tag raiding.

On a side note, why the switch from 'defenders' to 'fendas'?

I've always enjoyed the term fenda. Even when I was a fenda, I loved the word fenda. It has such a nice ring to it.

I like "fenda" better. Though its supposed to be insulting to defenders, so I use it jokingly to defenders I like, and to others that annoy me partially because it bothers them. Yes, sometimes I'm five. I also like watching cartoons, coloring, and playing with toys. :P

To be fair, I'd still watch cartoons, if I could find decent Loony Toons episodes online :/

Loony Toons is still on some channel with older cartoons. We watch it when I babysit my little cousin. :P


But we should probably not get off topic. The mods seem extra grumpy about that lately. So... yeah, fendas and 28 raids in one update. :P

It's clear that the puppets I was applying last night were just too sneaky and well hidden to possibly be spotted.

And mine. And Rawr's. And Spartzy's. Especially those with the TBH flags already on them.

As with many bad things in life, I blame the Dodgers. (In this case, for beating the Giants on the MLB.tv free game of the day during last night's major update.)

Understandable. Now answer my question, when are you joining us for a tag raiding session?

Only one way to find out. Ok fendas, here's your chance to actually attempt to show us that raiding is so incredibly easy and defending is difficult (I am talking to those who have said that, not all of you, before someone yells at me >.>). Can you detag what we tagged? You won't even have people chasing you. :P
