Kusari has barely 25 points from her Tokugawa pilots.
For the first half of the event all I could remember is the Gallic side fielding up-to 3/4 Remembrances at an instant, whilst Kusari struggled to log 1.
What ensued in those battles is that we all got rekt by BS DPS. This wasn't just a one-time thing though, it happened so much, it pretty much demoralized a playerbase. Only after the Remembrances were preoccupied with our indie Tokugawas, did the Kusari side start actually winning fights.
So if you're scratching your head, offended as to why Kusari is "playing the victim card", it's because they have been the victim of Remembrance spam - or in a simpler term - ganks.
"oh but kusari ganked too!!"- Yes, everyone ganks in the end, especially in these events. But everyone with at least one eye, both from Kusari & Gallia PoV, knew that Kusari was getting steamrolled for the first half of the event. Despite that, we kept logging back in hopes that the other side would realize and stop sending so much battleships when we don't have much of our own to begin with.
Regardless, the eccentric logging up until the very last few days was showing that the spirit wasn't so easily broken. And I've had a few fun fights here and there, mostly those being the ones where we actually had Tokugawas in them.
This is more or less a good summary of what happened.
Gallia sees a kudessy, or two, and opts to log remembrances because the gadessy isn't considered up to par in comparison. And in raw stats? It's a confirmed thing. I've actually fought Haste in his gadessy, and he was winning pretty hard by virtue of TSS, and the gadessy having a very flat side profile to go with it instead of stats and facetanking. Also the fact I'm bad in cruisers.
Kusari also had a lot of salt going on in the background, not helped by the fact that if they fielded any sort of cap there was a tendency to get a response in overwhelming, brute force. This salt actually is what made me refrain from logging, because there was a vocal minority of Kusari players who were screeching at the top of their lungs about winning and doing things "right." In particular I was met with derision because of my loadout, which included the use of missiles.
I then went the opposite direction entirely and replaced all of my prims with pulses out of spite. It was funny, and then the heavy trebuchet happened.
btw Haste please don't insta me with a heavy trebuchet again, it was very rude and i was very upset

That isn't trying to start drama, chief, that's him responding to Shiki.

This wasn't much of a cap + snub event either. As far as I noticed snubfights and capfights were pretty much isolated, the only time I was a snub during a capfight was when I willingly participated to zap some Kusari bombers since the Gallia side was a bit outnumbered during that fight.
Events where caps or snubs aren't restricted are ultimately better than cap/snub only because it feels less like an event and more like just playing the game where people of any kind can join, like what used to happen during the Lib-Rhein war in Texas. No events there, just people logging. The only difference this time is that you got paid for blues and you could flex with the points you got at the end of the event.
It does suck solid ass when caps ruin snubfights but I saw none of that during this event.
I hate the martinet and the other guy that chased my solo Ku-side bomber for 30 mins in 6-7 fights each. If it was you I have a nice airlock I'd like to show you. I even got chased by a full health and regen gallic battlecruiser 30k off the fight on the same bomber
