    If we got ourselves organized...I'm sure Clutchfans could rule it again.

    It does take a lot of time and effort though lol, I remember a lot of people just gave it up when they got too busy...which is why eXploit fell apart. I dunno how long I'd be able to keep it up personally. But if we could take a round and just catapult back up to the top, it'd be all worth it even if we all gave it up afterwards.

    I made a base in the SW Quadrant, but haven't really done anything with it yet. If we could get one of the old guard to boss it up and start up a legit cartel, I'm joining up for sure.

    If anyone wants to play again, go join the Grumpy Fukkers. They have Clutchfans blood. Just stay away from the douchebag clique.

    Xero, if you hit it another round, so will I :)

    If you remember Rambler/Hellion, he took the what was left of eXploit and created STD. They ruled the server for quite a long time. I don't know if you remember the b*stard Maddyn who screwed us over. They went on and created Republic Of Texas. ROT has since created a clique on OE and they are all douches like Maddyn. A core split of from STD and created Grumpy Fukkers. Most of them are gone, but they have some good guys.

    The game is VERY different, so you definitely need some current vets to help.

    Yeah, Hellion was a chill dude. Vaguely recall ROT being bastards. Lots of internet drama in this game XD.

    Don't really recognize anyone in Fukkers, but I guess you're all aliases. I'm gonna try to get my oil set up then look into a cartel...definitely down for Fukkers, but I will probably be on and off this round though, kinda busy. But if you guys are making a push in the summer rounds, I'm there 100%.

    Im not sure you will recognize anyone in the game ... there might be a couple. I haven't played the last couple rounds. Been chilling on Farmville :eek:

    Once you win one round, everyone gangs up on you. The drama always destroys the cartels in the end. Stay with a tight nit of guys who are loyal and its much more fun to play.

    I went ahead and started one on the rookie side to try to get my berrings again. Forgot a lot of the strategies so I'm playing around with it. Trying to remember how I used to set my pods up properly.

    I'm tempted but I can't commit to it. It's a game that really needs some serious time commitment that I don't have right now.

    How did things work out with Rambler's kid? I know he had leukemia. Poor little guy.

    I believe he turned out ok. Of course with leukemia, you're never out of the woods forever.
