I'm not in any guild, so I don't really have to pick sides on this one. Good luck to everybody!

I think it's more of, how many active Pirates you have, if a guild has 500 members but only 20 or so are on every now and again, I can't seem them doing very well haha. I think it's also matter of your guild's dedication. And as to those guilds who cheat... may they rot in Davy Jones's Locker!

True, smaller guilds do have a chance to do very well, if the guild is dedicated enough. But bigger guilds do have the numbers game, doesn't guarantee them a higher spot, but it certainly helps.

How do you find out who has the most?
The leaderboards are down / do not work at least when I checked Wednesday morning so how do we keep track?

Either D has found a way and is too lazy to fix them, or they have men who work 24/7 to keep count, or they are trying out a new system....

How do they cheat??

Jello743 08-11-2010 04:43 PM

they cheat by using programs or using invincibility

Doesn't seem to be fully. I was in my ranking spot yesterday (shall remain disclosed!) for a few good hours, but the leaderboards said I only killed 160 enemies.. I could do that in 10 minutes, let alone a few hours!

And now that I think about it, I'm start to get rankers remorse already. After all, it isn't what you would particularly call... fun. I'll still do it, just don't expect to find me all day blasting away at those guys :P

Sven Osymthe 08-11-2010 04:54 PM

Invincibility doesn't really matter for an event like this. People cheat in a lot of different ways during these events, or when ranking in general. Can't really explain it better, as it's against the rules.

The leader boards aren't working right now. You probably defeated 160 enemies the last time it worked successfully. Buck is listed with 2k enemies.. he wasn't even online (long enough to get that much). That's one of the reasons I didn't do a thing :D

They really need to fix it though. Although, with the leader boards being broke, I haven't heard about anyone cheating (at least not as much). That's the only positive for them being down.. although some people enjoy ranking, no reason to take it from them..
