Who knows what next update will bring, so best to try to describe the server culture overall so they can decide if it will be a good fit.
Well, we should also describe E's freepside as that's what a tribe's going to fight. A tribe might or might not hang out in TS all day long.
I think between U9 and U10, creepside could have used a tribe group that didn't necessarily join the craid/zerg as well, seeing how freeps would have groups of 4-8 that could fight a smaller group but not really 12+.
In my understanding, the benefits of E are:
1. There's usually action. Much of it is zerg (by either side) and/or hide-and-seek, but action regardless.
2. There are freep groups operating independent of the fraid (if any). A new tribe group will, of course, be turned into pie repeatedly, but that shouldn't last for very long. Occasionally such groups' pie-making efficiency surpasses that of the fraid's.
3. Creep TS makes it easy to know where the main group(s) are headed.
P.S. Someone may have already said so. In response to the OP, E's primetime is generally 8-12 Eastern. RvR can last until 1 or 2 am on some days (Saturdays in particular), or one side might disband around 10 or 11.
