OMG the one day of the week I can't play and we lose. How did it happen did just nobody show up?
Thought they got the Astral Candesence back last night/early this morning?

Yeah, the AC was recovered overnight. But there goes our perfect record. Too few people showing up and too many people trying to leech exp/IS. The question is, did they attack again during maintenance...

I was there during the besieged that we lost the AC.
What happened was when the Mamool Ja entered the scout puks got in and started spamming AOEs a lot of people started dying quickly. While a lot of people were recovering from raise sickness 2 generals fell almost simultaniously, another fell shortly after. We were now down to 2 Generals and before we could deploy all healers to protect them 1 more fell to a 8700+ radiant breath.
The last General had all the healers on him but it seemed all the Mamool Ja turned from fighting in the Commoner's ward and took off at high speed to kill that last General. Shortly after with scores of War Wyverns the Mamool Ja defeated the last
General. We then received a message to head to the Hall of Binding to protect the AC. My screen was filled with War Wyverns and was constantly being paralyzed. We were able to kill one Wyvern but there were too many. We were battling a Mamool Ja near the AC when we got the message that they took the AC. I do not understand how because the only mobs close to the AC at the time was the Mamool Ja I was fighting and a Wyvern next to it. There were no mobs behind me thus I do not know how they got the AC.
Anyways the reasons behind how we lost the AC was due to bad timing and bad luck. The people we had in zone either haven't fought in besieged and were inexperienced or were trying to skill up lower level jobs. The events that unfolded that took out a lot of defenders early contributed to the Mamool Ja's win. But for those that think beseiged is boring I tell you after the last General fell the rush you get from realizing you are going to lose and looking at a wall of Mamool Ja and Wyverns bearing down on your arse. A lot of people ran but a lot of people also stayed and fought to the end. There were bodies everywhere. Yes we lost for the first time but Ramuh can be proud we tried as hard as we could and the inevitable finally happened we lost the AC.

This will probably sound odd, but I really wanted to be in the first fight, where we lose the AC. Can't expalin why very well. It just seems like an important battle. To bad I missed it.
Personally I will never understand the mass raising in besieged. Yes it protects you from being blocked out of the zone, but there is no xp loss for releasing and if you hp is in the zone it is a much more effective way to get players back on their feet. Losing the AC seems to show the consequences if we rely too heavily on raising.

Bascially, this was SE being Faggots as usual. They make besieged so stupidly unfair, they really did want us to lose. Magic is pratically useless, Mobs have high def and attack, and the lag is nearly unbearable. SE should do something good for a change and adjust the whole besieged system. However it is true that players in besieged are far too concerned by the little tid bits of exp and IS gained and dont make sacrafices for the AC. There should be no raising unless your HP is in a far away area, if your HP is in white gate, stop being lazy and freakin HP and comeback. If you see a General getting jumped by mulitple mobs, aggro the ones that he/she's not hitting, and take it on to yourself, run as far as you can with it. Remember, they can't take the AC if you have generals alive, they should be the first and formost concern. On multiple occasions I've sacrificed myself for Zazarg. Honestly, he's easy to maintain, I Pro/Shell IV him, haste him and put him on auto-follow curing him and taking aggro off him when required. The generals actually posses insane abilites and can deal actual damage to the mobs, just keeping them healthy, they can win besieged for you, but you have to make the commitment to protect them with your lives, and not be selfish only thinking of your own exp and IS. AC = Exp bonus

If you came back (for the fourth time) you would find out.
Psshaw, count on you to give the runaround on a perfectly valid question. 
I couldn't stand to go through the FFXI lvl grind again, specially since i'd have to lvl at least 3 jobs to 37 right off the bat.
But I digress, I didn't want to know anyways. That's why I asked~
Edit: Btw, is there anyone on the server named Paskil yet? That has to be the second most rockin' name ever, after Stinkywizzleteets. If not, you should name a mule after me. Oh, and also name your thirdborn after me too (if you ever get down and funky again).

I stopped going to beseiged because I had no choice. The lag for me is so bad that I am unable to cast spells. I'm a WHM75, and pressing Cure 3 usually takes between five to ten minutes - if it casts at all.
On top of that I can't tell where the mobs are (they vanish and reappear at random), I can't tell where my party is (well I can tell, just can't get to them), and walking usually results in alot face in wall action.
No other part of the game is laggy. Sure, I may only have AMD3000 64bit. Sure, I may only have a Nvidea 5200. But, I tell you, this game shouldn't even bother with Besieged if a someone who perfectly meets and exceeds the specs of the game can't participate.
Oh, the solution? Get a better computer/internet connection/video card? No. I am not spending thousands of dollars on upgrading a system that *already* meets the specifications set forth by the game in all packages including the expansion.
As for us losing the Astral Cadence, I don't care about that. No point in having an EXP bonus, and other benefits, if we can't actually lose it ^^
