Seems to me the issue is not how large the guild is, but how many active players were involved in the contest. EXAMPLE:

PNC has fewer than 50 members, but still PLACED in the top 20! That says a LOT.

BBK, although a "large guild" has fewer than half the members of some other guilds that participated--and we placed in the top 5.

It's not a matter of overall guild size, it's how many ACTIVE players you have, and how many of THOSE participated and how serious they were about it. Look at Molly Blue--she knocked out so many enemies all by herself that she got a Disney mention. ANYBODY COULD have done that, as long as they had the time to devote and the desire to do so.

Well said Bart , this competition was about getting your guild to work together as a team , those guilds that did are on the list. Great job to all that gave the effort. Very well Done McRaging , Guardians , ESG and BBK ...!!! and a special wOOt ! to Invincible Warlord , amazing job !! would have placed in top 10 if you were a one person guild

Congrats to all the POF guilds Black Bart's Krewe, and Rouges Of Fortune!
And heres a woot for my guild Partners N Crime for being 20# with only 31 Members!

Aye...What Constance & Bart said. Guild size really didn't come into play as much as perserverance & teamwork of those that participated...
Thanks to all for a grand competition & Kudoes to everyone that ranked & ranked & ranked...

Jack Sunskull · #24 08-03-2009, 07:35 PM

Congrats everyone.

With those thoughts in mind, be wary of the ETC next time around. We have full intentions of not getting a ban between now and the next contest...

And I do heartily agree that it weren't size of the dog in the fight. Look at BBK, no matter the size of their group. It was the CORE dedicated players that did the work. Their top guys did more than many entire guilds did.

My guild, Loyal to the End, made 11th! I'm proud of them, they have been good friends and help me a lot. I haven't even checked the competition results until today, band it's cool we did so good. Great job everyone!

Angel Daggerfury · #27 08-04-2009, 11:17 PM

Grats to everyone that placed in the Top 40 =) Spania seems to be the only one missing I think from the final results... ROFL Guardians would've had probably another 2K added if I didn't conk out the last 6 hrs of the contest lol... said I was gonna take a lil nap, *totally embarrassed* and I ended waking up 8 hrs later, 2 hrs after the contest ended lol...for a guild that got crashed earlier in July, I'd say we did pretty good for 295ish members.

Guild numbers don't mean that much when most are inactive...u can have a lil guild full of active ppl who would just do about the same amount of enemies defeated as any other big guild where half the guild is like inactive.

Ditto...and with that,

a super WTG to SeaFurys!!! SF hasn't appeared on the Top Daily Guilds for Enemies Defeated for a really long time and they were formerly Top Overall 3 for Enemies Defeated. They didn't get into the contest really until like the last THREE days of the contest, and they flew up the list to #12 when they worked together to get over 100K enemies...::totally impressed:: imagine what it would be like if they had started at the beginning of the contest...

Not to also mention that SeaFurys only had about 15 actives... PNC has 2x that number I heard. So if small guilds could do it, that means ur guild could've done it as well, toanuju22.
