Weedensday 7'th of november was a SAD day in my long history of this game and long service in EPA.
That day a greate leader and player announce he would stop playing SGW and retire as leader of EPA as we know it.
It took me and many others a long time to figure out Dundee werent pulling a joke.
So it is with greave in my heart i write here today in SGW Community both to say goodbye to a greate player but also to a greate leader who has done much more than many could imagening, i know how much he has put into this game and this alliance.
But i also know how many in this community he has touched and who he has got the deepest respect and talks with and the friends he made.
Since he choose not to tell everyone i thought i would give him a greate gift to show how much he meant to me and to EPA by making this post.
My history of my time in EPA and with this greate player.
I startet this game and after 6 month play i accidently bumped into Dundee.
He and i felt in good talk and we just kept in touch.
Where it all starts really is december last year where i was 2IC of Asgard Order and again talked with Dundee he was now leader of the whole EPAc and with his help i moved into this greate alliance.
From here i learned alot, every day if i had a problem i always like anyone else in EPAc and in this game could count on dundee he was there to answer and to guide.
Even when the CoP vs CIA war he was there to back you up, when I lost a famely member and needed time out Dundee alwasy made sure to ask how i was, this is one of the greates trates this greate player has both ingame and IRL he cares for his friends and fellow members and players.
This is also why when EPA was in problems he suffered the most he cared so much about everything it took to much. But like everyone else he never showed it and fought on with us all, he startet TP to protect its smaller members the very alliance i'm in until i move back into EPA.
He has done much and i would wish he could stay even longer and continue this greate work.
And i will quote his farewell message on the forum:
Dundee taken from EPA Forum wrote:After long consideration I have decided that I have absolutely had enough of Stargate Wars... it does not hold any fun for me anymore the only thing that keeps me around is you lads and lasses in EPA and co....
However I don't want to have this be the end, I have decided that the EPA Confederacy can be much much more than just a group of alliances on a text based MMO... therefore the new EPA Confederacy will be born in the next few weeks/months and it will be an Online Gaming Clan covering everything from Console games to PC MMO's to browser based MMO's to play by forum and play by email role playing to anything anyone can think of.
I will still be around but as a kind of managing director of the umbrella company you guys will be free to continue your game play as EPA/TSA/359 in SGW under your own rule with no interference from me but by being under the confederacy umbrella you will have access to many technical resources from graphics to forums to whatever you need.... on the flip side if you like playing console games and want to start a clan or team under these games as part of the EPA confederacy you are also free to do so as you wish you just need to state your interests to me and it will go from there......
Anyway enough of that, I will keep everyone updated with that as and when I come up with more details....
It has been an honour and privelage to have led this alliance and I consider you all my online "family" if my big ideas pan out I hope that will forever continue on other media!
I am really lost for words because this is still for me a farewell with a player i never thought would leave who i am fought side by side in wars and have been pestering when i was bored, whats the fun in that now??
But for you Dundee it was a honour playing with you it is a honour knowing you and i wish you all the best luck with what you do now and i hope you one day come back, i know we will talk on msn and i also know that one day i will be at your door kicking you in the balls if you dont come back to EPA and SGW.
