You got me, Rack, and you got me to a T. Accurate and informative, not to mention completely unbiased, retelling of the events that have formed this world to date.
Only a few ever so minor words to add to what you have said, otherwise your finger is right on the pulse of Bastille,
You are correct, I have single handedly orchestrated the entire battle against AoW.
-Not only did I foresee GlU going to war with AoW, but I made sure that they would eventually decide fighting each other was not in their best interests and join together further strengthening AoW and creating the power house we see today thus ensuring HNE, the first tribe to secure their corner was forced in the fight.
That was all me.
-Not only did I foresee that Tribalwar would randomly disband to root out the slack and the cowards from their ranks, but I ensured that some made it to AoW, sparking the engagement between those two tribes adding a second tribe to the fight against AoW.
That was all me.
-Not only did I foresee the fall of SEU, but I ensured that players were divided ever so cleverly between AoW and BBK, sparking hostility, eventually lighting that firecracker with the icing on the cake. AoW recruiting and supporting a refugee account fleeing the wrath of BBK, bringing the third tribe to bear down on them.
That was all me.
As you can see, it could have been none other than I who contacted each leader to instigate a plan that I have not only actively argued against, but declined myself when contacted to create coalitions.
Again, I can but agree with you that I destroyed the Shields because you got in my way. How could I deny this when hostilities were rising between my tribe and your tribe before it became Shield North and Shield East, back when we were discussing diplomacy and how to diffuse the situation.
While you smiled to my face and sent mails to everyone around me, using my name as a scare mongering tactic to recruit as many as you could.
It is true that Shield then got in my way once I told you as an appeasement to your worries that there was no certain way to ensure peace that I would direct my efforts to a tribe to my flank and recruit them entirely, creating the Shields, again using my name to do so.
Indeed, I cannot deny, that once you had used my name to recruit every viable target around me, I had nothing to do but sit, and build, and prepare to destroy the only tribe that threatened my own.
I started Kings, yes, we were but 12 players when we began, but MAKING Kings, I can only give you the credit for that. When I heard that the Sentinels had stood against your tyrannical dictatorship and were feeling the wrath of shield (you remember those 6 players you couldn't take out), they were ideal candidates to begin Kings expansion and make new friends. We supported our new friends, and ensured their survival, proven warriors just waiting for the launch to join Kings against the Shields.
I remember the day well when I declared my intent of war to your tribe, your threat to bring to bear 200 Paladin nukes against me to wipe me out, that regardless of skill, ability or experience that your sheer numbers through recruitment would overwhelm and destroy me, when Kings were just 20 players against 200, my tactic may not have had as great an affect on the odds as you might now say. 200 players is still a lot for this little gummybear.
Of course, I did all and more when I caved to the pressure of fighting mass recruit tribes, I think I even went as high as 60, breaking all concepts for a decent sized tribe. As we joined with our brothers from The Art of War. Then also when I picked up a few of your ex tribemates, who with support and guidance have become indeed great warriors (did you not TEACH in Shield?) How dare I refresh our ranks, and give fair opportunity to all who apply to my tribe, it was all my inability to fight the dangers of mass recruit tribes, and has nothing to do with my recruitment policy which you know nothing about but essentially removes recruitment from my decision and places it with the tribe. Not that you know any of this, never even coming close to being considered.
I do suggest you remember the forum rules, as well as the...actions...of some of your members, before discussing cheating on here.
Indeed, though once I was blind, now do I see. I am the puppet master. I am the warlord. Directing the tribes, altering the tide of war to suit me. Acting despicably and without honour, your post is all there is to know and more.
My post count is, entirely and utterly without modesty, proclaiming my greatness to all, and without though for other players new and old. It has nothing to do with my dedication to our community, nor my responsibilities as a moderator.
100%, TRUTH INCARNATE RACKATTACK. Woe is me to have angered such a great warrior, the true puppetmaster who shall orchestrate my doom.
You have unmasked me for who I truly am, gaze upon my true self and pity me as my destruction nears in its imminence.
