Order's population is up.

We've raided IC a couple times already and it feels great. Although I noticed that we always outnumber Destro every time we lock T4 zones.
So I checked the forums, to see what's going on with them, and found out that some of them are actually re-rolling as Order. Then I went over to Warheap to confirm the numbers and, yes, our population is up by 1%. Now Destro only outnumber us by less than 500 as opposed to 2000+ last May. Plus, active level 40 players are almost even own both sides.
Two months ago, I thought I'm going to be happy when the population flips. But, actually, this kinda suck.

Keep in mind warheap died after 1.2, when they changed the guild pages warheap did not update for several months. I helped their owner fix his script so they could index again. What your seeing now is the new numbers. Active players are any that earned exp since last update which was 2 months ago. Just keep that in mind.

I prefer to be the underdog also - but sometimes when even fighting even odds I feel like the underdog - so many damn Choppas and their whirling blades - the Magus pulls - and that pull of the Marauder just sucks so much sometimes. - and the other night I was hit by a Sorc for 3200 points of damage - still trying to figure that one out - it was her level 40 against my level 40 - was one hell of a crit and it hurt. Hoping I can achieve that one day with Mor...
Also their level 40s have been around a lot longer - are geared heavily - and have lots of renoun points spent - that's why Wargington drops Warlord gear occassionally and he took 2 level 40's and my level 36 WH and won - although if I had had a potion onme he might have lost. Point is - when I see things like being 2 shot by a Sorc and Warg taking on 3 other players I still feel like the underdog.
Andlast night in IC - we were hugely outnumbered.

I know what you mean, Morigana. Wargtington, Vorath, Pureblade -those are tough Chosens. Even though they're like walking tin metal and I'm armed with a giant can opener (White Lion Axe) I can only do two digit damage to them (I'm a White Lion). But we'll get to their level soon. Hopefully, we still have the lesser but better population. I don't want to be the mindless zerg?
Speaking of Zerg. Why shouldn't we call ourselves Tyranids instead? It's Warhammer after all.

I would not say Tyranids as we do not melt our enemies into protoplasmic goo and absorb their DNA into ourselves.. Nor do we do that to each other after we win a battle. =)
A zerg is more akin to a skaven swarm or an orc WAAGGHH!
