This Friday Kim (blaydwoman) told me she was under attack from a guy called joeee, an admin of SW|4. THe attack came as a surprise to her, as she usually is on good terms with Raul, and so should be somewhat safe from his minions.
joeee told her he had the full backing of SW in his attack, so Kim panicked and informed her protectors, TheEarl and Parwez. I offered her full Morkin support, but agreed that the Wraith boys could take the lead on pressuring joeee.
TheEarl did it like this:
Earl and Parwez had no problems getting Wraith mobilised, and joeee of course soiled himself and agreed to all Earl's demands.
The really interesting thing about this little affair is this: Kim claimed that Raul was behind it from the beginning, and when I asked her why she said this:
I immediatly asked for a copy of that list, but Kim had deleted it, and joeee said it had been removed from the SW forum. Maybe that is so, or they have been given very strict orders not to let it spread further. A pity, because such a list would be political dynamite in the IK world. But even the knowledge of the existence of such a list is interesting.
Also, the affair gives material for a few thoughts on the SW/Wraith relationship. It would seem that SW shouldn't be too secure that Wraith will protect them forever.
And about Raul: Why did Kim get on the list? An honest mistake (He's making a list, not checking it twice), or is he really that much of a pr.i.ck when finding 'easy' isles for the small Sea Cubs to steal?
I think we can assume that we not are on Raul's list at the moment, but that could change. Do we have any way of using the knowledge of the list to our advantage, even if we don't know the content of it?
Finally, I think this affair shows how Raul run things. He can make a list, and the cubs just follow it without questions. I'm glad I'm not a member of such alliances.

TheEarl did it like this:
Right. You've got 24 hours to : 1. Apologise to blaydwoman 2. Call off the attack (if possible) 3. Pay 120% of all blaydwoman's losses 4. Grovel Otherwise you've got 48hours to live. I don't care who's alliance you're in - NO-ONE attacks people I protect and gets away with it. We at [wraith] have long supported [firefox] and now SW, but I don't know you and I don't recognise feeders anyway. SORT IT. NOW.

i can tell yoyu that joeee was crapping his pants and that he spilled his guts when he saw a lof wraith going to kill him. he showed me a list from raul that had a lot of names and colony numbers on it and said raul sent the list and told his minions to pick what isles they wanted. so raul knew i was on the list cause he put me there. it was not a mistake as he claimed.
I immediatly asked for a copy of that list, but Kim had deleted it, and joeee said it had been removed from the SW forum.
