Were you around for ILB when one of the players acted against the rest of the playerbase and the protagonists on his own? It wasn't pretty.


Um, I still don't know what to say, I'm not changing my way of playing this to appease anyone. I haven't done anything wrong, if things get ugly it's not because of me. I haven't attacked anyone or done anything wrong, let alone get reprimanded by the PM's, yet I'm causing problems.

Wish someone who has a problem with me could explain that.

EDIT: When dealing with problems I prefer to go to the source. Since some players feel I'm disrupting the game and going against the PM's I decided to ask them rather than worry over what people here thought.

I have e-mailed the PM's OOG and asked them if they could clarify for me whether or not I'm turning over their apple cart. If I am I will stop, if I'm not I wont. I have nothing further to add about this until I hear from them other than to say this is ridiculous.



Already here making trouble I see....

While that shirt is awesome (who can deny Keyboard Cat?!) it derives it's power from the intrinsically brilliant design of the three wolves tee...

 		I think it would be beneficial if we had someone start a wiki. I can try and help update it as I get time.

It would help out people like me that go to work and come home to find 10+ pages that have been added to the thread.

This is just direct evidence that someone, like myself, will not read back to see whats going on.

 		an apology
I'm writing to give FSURobbie my apology. I may have stoked this fire because I am new and I am not familiar with te players of this community. I was very disappointed when he came on taunting us because I was under the mistaken impression that this game was us vs the PM's. To me it is inconceivable that someone playing for the "other team" could keep any kind of objectivity if he was batting for the other team an wanted to "win". It was not his game smack talk that upset me. it was the fact that he was on the other side, and ruining what I though was neutral ground. I was not/am not comfortable sharing game info with other players who "could" use it to their advantage. (Hey I'm recon look at our description LOL)

Please understand my my POV on this. I play an MMO called EVE online. Some of you may have heard of it. Our game is infamous for player vs player betrayals and OOG metagaming that has includes real world hacking of websites, email accounts and stealing of in-game assets literally worth 1000's of dollars of real world money. It has bred in me a paranoia about and immediate distrust of human players who are not part of the environment. (PVE vs PvP) so it colors all my actions and attitudes. In my game experience we ARE paranoid because losing our codes and assets means possibly losing Real world money and time.

That said, this is a different game, different rules and different people. I have obviously misjudged the situation , viewing things though the filters of my experience. For this I apologize. I did not mean to fan the flame and upset the apple cart. I am still paranoid but but I will take it easy. I hope you all will forgive my noobishness. I look forward to playing and winning.

GAME ON!

FSURobbie did a very nice job of summarizing what's gone on so far (including all links & emails), on the first page of the thread. Check it out...

 		A message to MS regarding our fearless leader Levi
Earlier today, MS asked party members for information about the Gordian undergrand leader Levi Waltershield. the following is an email sent to MS from a certain...er...um...party member:

myron spankleduck to puritytowers,




Hello fellow party member.

Please find attached a recent picture of a certain Levi Waltershield. Luckily, I managed to sneak it out of his secret underground lair, through the many guards and traps. At present, LW's sizable lair can be found in the tunnels underneath the Zone. Near the Purity Towers. The exact location is unknown, but be warned --- LW has been trying to clone dragons!

I hope you find this information very useful. The purity towers conversion is definitely appealing to me! In fact, I hope to one day be given a home there. Seriously. But, before that, I need to rise in the party ranks. Unfortunately, I am rather meek and shy. Luckily for me, my ancestors fought in the war against the dragons. Lester Spankleduck? Surely you have heard of him? He is a rather famous ancestor in our family. I think he single handly killed a dragon (err, those 50 gordians who also attacked it at the same time hardly did anything). The final blow unfortuately resulte in Lester dying.

Your friend and party member.

Myron Spankleduck

I have a couple of points on this.

1. IG, Who says there is anything to win? OOG, From past funnel games I have seen, it is only fun. There are game objectives of course but us players work the game they set up for us to have fun. Nothing to win here.

2. IG History that has been placed before us reads like this:

(A) A war was fought with the dragons against the Party and the Grotians.

(B) The war was won by the Party, defeating the Dragons.

(C) The Grotians were wiped out during this war and The Party standing tall took in the Grotians. Giving them a place to live and provided work for them. The Grotians have been very grateful for this charity.

(D) The GU is a TERRORIST group. A small ungrateful group who is biting the hand that feeds them. They do not even have the honor of being called rebels.

(E) To attack FSURobbie because of verbal jousting that was not started by him is very hypocritical. Let us go back through this link and count how many times people are chanting up the GU! Suddenly one person stands up and FSURobbie is attacked for his freedom of speech? SHAME ON YOU HYPOCRITES! The GU should be kissing The Party's feet!

(F) Free Sticky Itchers for everyone!
Except the GU because they are ungrateful and want to live the dirty life. Drool

No worries man, everything is copacetic. A misunderstanding got blown way out of proportion and I'm just as much to blame as anyone else...

Thanks for the kind words but PinkCloud actually wrote all that up and sent to me. Thanks again PinkCloud for the awesome summary!

EDIT: HOLY CRAP!!! I got a shout-out from Randy & Earl!!! Suh-weet!
