Though not taking anything away from the Minmatar, you guys are certainly winning more matches (even if I'm personally on something like a 30-2 streak [  ) Regarding the star map, keep in mind this is all less than one week of CCP fixing how attack and defense contracts should spawn, with the Minmatar starting out with 0 districts. I'm not expecting the Amarr to take over 50% of the districts with the larger collection of battles are playing out, but I certainly expect it to slowly climb for a while, with the rate of climb gradually slowing and slowing until it stabilizes. Agree with everything you have said and look forward to 1.8...just trolling TA a bit before bed. :3 Honest question: do you guys RP hard in squad chat?

This is probably the most commonly asked question I get. The answer is simple: No. Why talk casually like everyone else in comms. However I would say True Adamance could quote most the scripture

I specifically remember a thread where Mr. Machine Guns and a group of others were talking about how MinFW was EZ-Mode where people q-sync when they get tired of being stomped into the ground, and want to stomp themselves.
I'd link the thread, but It's 12am and I'm not fishing through my favorites bin for it.
I'm just trying to prevent people from creating generalizations and falsifications that favor them.

Guns is probably not the right person to use as your representative sample.

Aero will attest to our victory over a squad of Carbon 7 and Contract Hunters in FW (both comprising 11 members of their team) while us comprising 5 of ours.
It was a fantastic fight. Best I have had out of the Minmatar lately.
Don't forget WTF, Prima Gallicus, Ultramarines, and so on. We have beaten several q-synced Minmatar teams before with our own q-synced teams.
But yes that recent match with 11 people from two corps on the enemy team and when I look at our team it says "Squad 0: 5/6, No Squad: 11" was a very satisfying victory, all the way to the last tick.

My apologies. I thought you were trying to point fingers and stuff when I saw that post about their being no true Matari and Gallente loyalists. (Which would probably pi$$ off Sgt. Kirk, Cat Merc, and Arkena)
Indeed.

Whenever I use an absolute term like "all" or "not any," that is usually always a hyperbole for "most" or "few," respectively.

The whole "easy mode" remark is absolutely nothing that can be blamed on anyone. Well, you could probably blame CCP if you want. Basically it's as stated, since most people specifically pick to fight for the Minmatar (or Gallente), all the newer player who have all four factions selected will more often then not go to the Amarr (and Caldari) sides in order to get matches started. This is primarily a user interface issue that is having a big impact on the gameplay. This could easily be solved in many ways, like making it more obvious how to choose what faction you fight for and/or making the default settings "No faction selected" and requiring you to manually select at least one faction if you want to play Faction Warfare.

Which is GREAT IMO.
I find it so much easier to get into FW matches now!

I mentioned specific individuals however there are not truly representative and exclusive corporations as a whole dedicated to a single faction for either of the aforementioned.

That explains why Caldari have more land. Played a few matches yesterday and it felt nice.
Also @Atiim Sgt Kirk being Arkenai it is quite sad that Gallente have only 2 loyal players and everyone else is there to get free LP.

True Caldarians only care about the advancement of the State. Once the great war machine of the Caldari people picks up steam, no one and nothing will be able to stand in its path.
