ran

[Arminius]

This single island Scemo! in o12 just crashed his fleet into one of my islands:
Attack on M24_____________DeadFurryAnimals (12:19:11)
Units of ran
Total Losses
Large Warships 400 400
Small Warships 21 21
Spearfighters 700 700
Archers 1323 1323
Units of Arminius
Total Losses
Large Warships 409 209
Small Warships 1 1
Small Merchant Ships 10 5
Spearfighters 4813 2457

Completely out of the blue. And he's still got some 900 spears on his isle. But no more ships. Has anybody come across him before?

[Natmus]

May be related to the Orc and multi attacks?

[Arminius]

I was wondering about that after catching up on the MD issue.

Might be paranoid, but there is 'narotu', which sounds suspicious.

OK, I cleared his isle and farm him until I have extracted enough to pay for my losses. Which will be about a million or so in gold.

BTW: what is our policy in this case--assuming he suicided because he wants to quit, and deletes his account. His isle becomes rulerless. I cleared it before then, so I guess anybody can take it from under my nose? Or does this fall under the Spoils Of War Act (1754) and thus belongs to me regardless?

Once his isle gets deleted it is up for grabs for anyone - although if it goes rulerless in the next day or so you could always try and stress your case with it being recent. The Naruto account is actually named after a character in a self-titled anime series; I don't believe it has a character called Ran in it.

Too much cryptic crosswords and anagrams... As ran's island is called 'lladnar' I guess his real name is 'Randall'. I was just looking for possible links with character manipulations etc.

Luckily his isle is surrounded by mine, so I should probably spot early if it goes rulerless.

Oh if eproxy (Arual) only went by his IK.uk name. Then your cypher would be even more funnier.

[Gornall]

Even we question the sexuality of "Arual" and we known him for quite a few years.

[Ruku]

Lol 'him'?

[Arminius]

So who is this 'yxorpe' you're talking about? Sounds Greek to me...

[Arminius]

Right, his isle has become rulerless today. I've launched a colo attack, and I will get very angry if some of his former friends takes it away from me... As he attacked me I claim this as 'spoils of war'...
