FreshScumFlash: NGemN8r

Dear Scum,

This should have been the monthly (yes yes, I “forgot” all about last month) Birthday Bashes & More, but there have been so many other things to talk about that I postponed that one for a couple of days at least. (though thanks to Kamisama for still getting all the info together for me).

Some of you have been here for years now. And I must say it is impressive how loyal you all have been (hey, if you are still here you have been loyal right?).  That doesn’t mean everybody has the same stamina. We have lost some of our Lowlifes in the last period.

Scrubby

A couple of weeks ago Scrubby told us that he was going to leave, sadly it was in the middle of my holiday. So, until now, didn’t have  the time to give him a proper farewell to him. He was one of the ancient scum, so we are sad to see him leave and wish him good luck in whatever he does. Here are his own words:

Hi Ghetto,

It has been a fun months hanging out with everyone but I have simply lost all draw to the game. I am quitting today. Thank you for your leadership and support.
See ya!
Scrubby

Oak

Sigh, such a loss here (again). You might remember C-3PO replaced Oak as backup warmonkey (and did a decent job in the first couple of weeks ;). Oak’s real life exploded around him (again), so he decided that it was time to stop playing (again). Ofcourse we have good hopes he’ll return to us (again) as he did before (again). In his own words:

Hey (sheepish grin)...

I over did it with work, fam, paddle training so when the app crashed I didn't get back to re-installing. Probably not coming.back but I think I said that before so won't say never. If you have a chat room somewhere I will join to keep in contact. Say hi to the ugly ones from me.

Revliss

Another one that will be sorely missed. I mean.. who wouldn’t miss the Queen of Ducttape right? Revliss has been inactive for a long long time… Well, to be honest she logged in every couple of weeks. But that isn’t enough to stay in the scummiest guild on this server (wait… what am I saying… scummiest guild on EVERY server ofcourse). At the moment she is taking a nap in Frenzied Fury and will return to us when she gets back to her normal active self! (so fear not!! Da Queen of Ducttape shall retun… one day I hope…)

Bakryu

Talking about Semi Ancient Scum. Bakryu (the man that always said he was going for level 500) has gone MIA on us for a couple of weeks now. I was not able to make any contact with him whatsoever, so all we can say for now: “Bakryu, we hope everything is alright”. If it is and you just didn’t say goodbye, then all we can say is: “Bad bad bad Bakryu!!!”.

Nanouchka

And last one for this depressing blogpost is Nanouchka. She has told me a couple of weeks ago that she is planning to leave the game, but will stay around until we found a suitable replacement.  Well… what can one say...  When being told in advance of one’s  departure is highly saddening. At the same time we appreciate the heads up AND ofcourse the commitment to keep as active as can be until the real time of departure arrives (ofcourse we still hope that day will never come ;).
 

FreshScumFlash: NGemN8r

So.. Is it ALL bad news? No ofcourse not, are we Scum or are we not?. As you have noticed some of our old friends have come back to help us out, at least until we have beaten D47. And today we welcome a completely new friend… Really? Really!

Welcome to NGemN8r (please don’t ask me what that name means, because I have NO idea… ask him instead… why do I have to do everything around here???) our newest smallest player to chase Silverlance. NGemN8r  (from now on nicknamed 9’er) is a dragonriding scout with a scrapbook of 87.41% (Come on 9’er you can do better than that) that originally came from Commune. Be carefull around him, he might be small but he comes from Oklahoma City… and we all know what happened there in the 90’s… (are you so sure that justice was served there? Then you probably also think that Oswalt acted alone…;)

 

Btw NGemN8r, it is time to get rid of those “all stat” epics and find yourself some new toys to play with. You are in the big boy league now  Have fun while you are here J
