Blue One

[Kjarkur]

Mine was lost on my old computer. If you've got spare time, I'd like a new one !

And I agree, state of the game has changed. The old TL is a family, a bond that can never be broken.

It's funny...the old Legion as I used to know it were one of my biggest headaches.

Though I've achieved a lot since the height of the Educators and huge TL dominance...I'm actually creeped out by those eyes re-appearing!

I sincerely hope, that this is the birth of something new

*lol* Matt we were not that evil!

*lol* Matt we were not that evil!

You dearest KJ, have no idea how evil you were! It never seems that bad on the other side of the fence! Back when I was a little nublet...things were a little different. I kept to myself, you'd never have known me. All knew the TL and their marauding men

Back then, there were 3 alliances that everyone feared. You bad boys were the top ones.

You don't know how badass you are when you are the badass

*grin* What FM said.

I refuse to believe I was ever bad to you, my dear FM. How could I!

Maybe not you personally. My memory of you in those years is at best "hazy" however...as a collective. It was a different story!

Things come and things go, the things that most feared me are the same things that drive me today. Just thought it worthy of a comment...first chill that this game has sent down my back in a couple of years

[Kjarkur]

Omega were huge bully's and TL was highly important at the time. And still is.


I think nobody has to worry, our friendship is still there but game politics have without a doubt changed a lot. Not to mention game mechanics.

I get your point there.

[SVaRuN]

We were friends from all around the game who played the game for what it was. Make friends, meet new people, later on conventions.

But the state of the game we played was getting disrupted. All around the server you would see this depression.
There came Bloody Sunday, which basically set the tone for all the rest. CoP was there, doing what they wanted, to whoever they wanted.
The time when we decided enough is enough, was when we saw what happens to supposed friends, which overgrow their usage
CoP decided to go elite wanted to limit EPAC. EPAC stayed true to their morals and beliefs and left CoP since it was a condition. Either kick out people and make your alliance smaller or go...
And than? Than they attacked those who they once called friends. Sure there were reasons. Hostile intentions towards them they said (entire server by that point was hostile towards them)
So they smacked the last bit of the tiny threat that was there and settled as supreme rulers of the SGW

And they really were at that point. I have quite a few sayings I like, one of them goes like this: "Sometimes you just can't see it and it was always there."

And so we were. I had no problems with X attacking Y, they were playing their own game, their own RPG and they played it very well.
However at the time me and some of the other boys were getting good at what we did. Raiding madness they said.
We, well a couple of us

Purple one - Blahh
Yellow one - Killy
Gray One - eXtremer
and myself the Blue one

...were doing well. When they decided to mess with that as well. Raging pillaging. Well when it comes to friends it all stops. There is no higher moral ground I want to walk on, it was just that simple. At that time.... for me it clicked. I am not the only one with friends in this game, the only one whose game style and fun in this game is being demolished by these new rulers of the SGW world...

So yeah I got the guys together 14 there were. All Slovenians at first. The deal was. Get strong, we will show you how and stay low. When you all reach the set number of troops and strength we will end this.

And so on year 2492 ABB of the Universe (if you go by the history I wrote) Right on top an alliance was created

14 people each with an army big enough to fear and some with biggest ever seen. (at the time limit was 100 mils)


There was no need to declare war, there was no need to provoke. All we did. We did in the that very same day.
Right away smaller alliances would approach and say, that they have formed a secret coalition that if they get attacked by CoP that maybe they will all stand together and if we would join.
We agreed.
And our intention? To take away that fear the entire sever had at that point. Back than, no one was supposed to touch a member of CoP that extreme it was. And we decided to neglect that. We didn't mass them, over farm them or anything, attacking them for absurd amounts of NAQ they had out was enough.
Well and it was not long and they responded. They decided to mass us and set the example. After all sure we were big but we were 14 and they were in the hundreds.
And so the sever watched.
The coalition we signed....stood and watch. They waited for our response and it was not until we have fought on our own for some time that finally they were convinced that something can be achieved and the CiA vs COP war started and if we skip the BS part and come to the end of it.

The war ended. What was the result? Well the coalition of paragons was no more and naturally like with everything there are always people who see heroes and make heroes where they are not and as such I guess our alliance quickly grew

The thing was.


Although the initiative was mine there were two people who created the TL and were it's head.

Blue and Purple or you can better say Yin and Yang as that different we were.


Blahh had his concept and I had mine they were different but we were friends and friends do not turn back on friends nor do they leave them. They accept them for who they are as they are like they are from when they met.

I knew what Blahh was like and he knew what I was like. His concept of the game was materialized in the Dark Legion and as some may remember the educators. My concept of the game was materialized in The Legion

Blahh played his game with his concept and well not everyone agreed with his concept so yeah... Since they were not like me his friend they would grudge and fight him and eventually there were two pictures.

To get to the gist of it all. Blahh's concept was, take what you can from those you can. Do not provoke but do not pat on the head and go easy on them as well. So he plundered for NAQ and because he had a good account he could attack for very low naq amounts and still had profit. But people saw it as provoking.
And? Well the rest of his concept was, if you want to materialize that beef of yours you have with him, he has no problem warring in fact he loved it.
He used it to educate as he said...

And me? My concept is written in my signature although it is comically covered. The original saying goes: The Legion, we wage war, so that we may live in peace.

So basically while I don't hide from it, I do not do it for fun. I do it when I believe that I have to in order to preserve my beliefs and what I care for the most in this game. Friendship




There were parts of TL no one saw as well...
On one side there was Blahh attacking left and right. But ask Raven how he gave his plunders away, how he helped people with that naq. You could say he was in some way a Robin Hood of SGW but it would be a bit too dramatic and exaggerated



So not to tire you further with this...All things can be seen from many perspectives and nothing in this world is either black or white but comes in different shades of gray, cause "Sometimes you just cant see it and it was always there"

Lord, I missed that kind of posting around here. These days it is all bromance and twittertalk -except in the eternally rantful OE vs. DDE-, but these kind of posts like Svarun's just now is what built this community. People who take the time to write their story/opinion/rant .. yes, I missed that.

Good to have you back - somewhat -, Svarun.

Very nice read that is. I miss those times, they were great. It's impossible for anyone right now to grasp the feeling of standing up against the 3 biggest alliance in the game with only a dozen people. And succeeding at it.
There are alot of aspects of TL nobody knows about. I'm not sure that is all good though. Power corrupts i think.

Anyway i'm abit busy atm, but add me to msn and i'll try to catch you online whenever i can mate. And thanks for the Eye, i felt weird without it.

[Kjarkur]

Blahhh,Couzens, Raven and SVaRuN helped me boost my account after my final ascension. I think Blahhh gave me quite a few spy levels few weeks later.

Raven taught me how to raid more efficiently.

When I tried coming back to the game after my vacation, Brdavs helped me get a new account.

Without a doubt there were many aspects of TL that outsiders didn't see.

A few in TL painted themselves as Educators with the educator sigs etc. But better friends are hard to find, and they would have wasted their accounts over and over for TL. As would all of us.

Excellent post Blue One.
