-Only about 10-15 people total in AA are active each day, and of those most only log on for a few minutes at a time and don't do much.
-The blob was inactive. I don't care how much you say it was active, it wasn't. I'm in the guild...I know.
-Scouting: Hadn't been really done in weeks. The week prior to blob derbing only three galaxies had been scouted. I know, I read the messages and was annoyed.
-It isn't hard to convince active players to join an op to derb and inactive blob. You can say it is hard, but it isn't. I've done the same thing really easily. Get the players, thus getting their JG's and voila! Instant derbs.
So if you have a sitting target that doesn't move it isn't that hard to derb it. Having the blob sit there for so long was asking for trouble and no matter how much I said to move the blob, nobody paid heed.
So good job on derbing the blob, just don't make it seem like storming the beaches of Normandy on D-Day or the Inchon landing in Korea. It was more like the US invading Grenada. Short, sweet and everyone enlarging the tale until it is made into a movie.
