Who is DarkLady/LadyHawke?

[soiram]

On November 2004, just after the revelation that she is not Andrea but Carol, she claimed to be 29 yrs old. She is now 35 according to IK.

Thank you, Dai. And its Carol for sure and always will be from now on.

Prophetic!

Also:

That's me and my horse Brittany

Ask verith what did she call her horse.

Jean-Yves, did you sent LadyHawke's personal thread to R.I.P. thread, there on MMU forum?

Oh, and mads, I'm still not quite convincewd Sheldon is DarkLord Malchor and therefore her nhusband. If he is, and I were Verith whick thank god I am not -phew !- I would be rather upset with him, not ?

DarkLordMalchor was originally PhoenixFlare on their forum. On an early post it has PF as the quote name someone replied to, and when you find that post it is by DLM.

I posed a question to blaydwoman regarding the bookwriting, and gave her a link to the RetroGames article about DL's book; and commented I wasn't sure if Verith was aware of it, or wanted to know.

hi david,
i spoke to carol about the book and this is what she told me: the name mike singleton she herself had correspondence with him as he was a big help in helping her with the book. she was aware of it. and its been a while but she also said that she didnt know andrea hawkins was a already taken pen name. hope that helps clarfy for you. so she was aware of all that stuff you showed me the article and the captions.

Thanks

Carol may or may not want to know just how far the identity theft went.

im planning on talking to carol tomorrow to see how the name andrea hawkins came to be im curious to see if it was the nutjobs idea. if you want i will get back to you after i investigated how that name came to be. i will have an answer tomorrow about it

Not the response I was expecting. Why would she talk to Mike Singleton?

I'm confused. Verith said she was aware of the book, but not of DL using 'Carol Benoit' as her pen name. I'll dig out the message and add it here.

Verith:

This is the first time that I've ever played an online game, because of all the trouble I hear my friends talk about with other players. But I was talked into trying this game out, and then ended up walking into a soap opera. At least, i found out that DarkLady was pretending to be me. It would have been embarrassing if the book did well, and people thought that I was someone/something else. It seems from the little that I heard that she took what she knew of me and Sheldon and created her own life story around my maiden name. Someone said that she even posted a picture at some point. And i know that Sheldon at one point during chats with her sent over some pictures of us, so i don't know if you saw one of my awful pictures or if she used someone else's pic.

Can we please try and avoid using the name 'Carol'? It's too confusing. I suggest using IK names: DL, PF, LH, verith, etc.

[Perun]

Oh, yes - that will be MUCH LESS confusing! ;D

What's up Gareth ?

[Starshatter]

I'm sorry. I'm a black and white person a lot of the time, and our paranoia is making me weep! This damn person/people/looney continues to make us chase our tails.
Is it not simple now? She/they attacked Marc. She/he/they are a bunch of lying sh*ts. We (I think ) have agreed to wipe her/them on the Solstice. I don't much care what the other alliances think anymore. If they're fooled, well ipso facto. I am happy with the choice I have made as to the end of this game for me. I am honoured to be performing the resultant actions of that choice with the people currently in this alliance. I have thoroughly enjoyed the sense of brother(and sister!)hood that has OVERALL been the characteristic of this alliance. If we are agreed, can we go back to the simple stuff until then? Help each other build our forces etc? If it spills over to Travian, personally, I will tw*t them there as well, even if I go down. Please lets not worry about this anymore. I realise that as a newcomer to the MMU community I don't feel the depth of betrayal that some of you, justifiably, feel. But I feel a very strong sense of loyalty to the people currently in this alliance, and it just saddens me a bit that she/he is still getting under our collective skin. Sorry.

[Arminius]

I still feel that three months is too long a time to wait. She'll have ten more colonies by then and 20 new testosterone-crazed STs who have fallen for her charms and think they're heroes for protecting her.

Let's prepare for battle, and once we've got a few colony ships to take over her isles, and enough flotillas to strike and take out main houses, go for it!

[Ringthane]

Nah, I'm sticking with Gareth. She won't get any new colony whatsoever.

Why not ? I am for waiting until the solstice, but Oliver'has a legitimate concern that she *will* be more difficult to destroy,and will most likely have expanded her male groupie record <lol>, but then again, by then ALL of us Morkins will have something reasonable to hit her with and the beauty is that as long as we don't loose too many of our ships+cats+troops onboard we cn keep sending them, and THAT will be the crown on our work+promises because that will require a lot more logistical planning and cooperation than we have sofar showed off. Levelling LH wa grandiose, but I feel we need to think/train a bit more on our final battleplan. How to rotate our fleets, where to strike, with how many ships+troops. First without cats to take out defense troops, rhen secobnd wave with cats to take down wall+main house, then third wave to finish it and colonize. And pick a next target when they return to base. I imagine we will need to work with carefully orchestrated timetables and possibly we will go and walk around with beepers and alarms set so we can launch at the right time when our ships have returned so as not to risk them being destroyed by possible retaliatory strikes on our home islands. I'm charging now I think, but in theory it is all so very clear to me now ;D Rage hard !

And then when it is Christmas Eve, we will sit in front of the screen with a glass of wine and turkey or whatever you fancy at that time and watch report after report of futile attacks on our barren islands while our ghostfleets continue attacking for days yet. Happy New Year !!!!!

[Freiegeister]

This is all conjecture as we don't know what she has. She could be a pure points player and have zilch defense relying on her protection alone.

[ashimar]

Well, for that we have spy ships of course, but while I beleve she simply asked for free ST's plus cats from her friends, I'm sure the experience of loosing 2 colonies has driven home the point to her that defenses are necessary. Also, I do think she is capable of sending out at least one sizable invasion fleet.
