 Beatles is just kind of cranky lately... I think it's because he died so early on Duels. ;-)

 I like attacking online people,it's funny when the person gets mad at you and tries to attack back but isnt strong enough. :D

 Heh... If anyone attacks me while I'm online, I squelchify them. If I get attacked offline, I get my land back. If I get attacked online, I get twice the amount of land that they took from me...

 When i get attacked and i'm online, i retal as much as i possible can without ruining my strat.

In other words, it means if i have enough turns, your ruined!

Ashyra Nightwing

 Yes, XD. Peace attacked me 35 times when I was online once..

 That wasn't me, that was him *glares at self*

 I don't know if anyone said this but...

Attacking while someone is online can be good or bad.  It can be bad because they might retal you just as hard or even harder than you hit them.  But it's also good because some people destroy all their towers when they get on and rebuild them before they get off.  Also, someone that has just gotten a good amount of land while online might not have had time to build towers, or if they use leaders, their ratio might not be very high because they just built huts and haven't used many turns yet.  If you wait they would have a high ratio and would profit much more by having more leaders.

 There's nothing wrong wihth attacking someone while they're online.

You take a gamble. If you break 'em, then you can reap great rewards, as they might've demolished all their Towers & such like some people do, & they might not have built on their free land & they probably haven't consolidated their gains.

However, often they can turn around & :)slap (can I say that?) you into the next century.  It's highly aggravating when you've just attacked someone & are about to make use of the land you've taken when someone pounces on you, so if you can get the offender back, then they're in for it.

There's nothing "bad mannered" about it- it's just tactics.  Certainly it's annoying, but not actually so bad as logging on in the afternoon to discover that you've been farmed virtually landless.  & it can often be enjoyable, especially if attacker & attackee end up laying into each other whilst they're both online.

 Yeah, people message me and are like, "What is wrong with you?  Can't you wait until I get offline?  I just lost lots of money because you did that." *modified previous example*  It's not exactly polite to wait until they get off so that you can no longer break them :lol:

  I usually wait for people to attack someone else and use up some turns and such. Sometimes people attack a ton and I know they must of had atleast near full turns, but then I go and hit them hard. Sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. I see it as battle of the turns. Nice to have stored turns and pummel people right after they feasted on someone. However, it can also turn quite bad for you fast. My advice, make sure you have some turns you can gamble with if you are hitting people online.

Nohcnonk

 Yeah, I've had some fights where we keep hitting eachother and I normally come out on top because I have more turns ^_^

 yup..  turns help, but so does having an army..  if you get to the point where you cant break the other person, even with 100% health, turns out kinda ick..  the best thing I've found to do is to wait till the other has attacked so much their health is low, then jump back in.. timing..  also a fast internet and a reliable computer help..  my computer has locked up in some fairly baddish times...

Online attacking does be very evil, when you can't break the other person..
