1. Why do you want to join us?
- I've been fascinated by the respect Morkin has held from since the beginning of this server, where I started to play, so when the opportunity to join arose I had to grab it. I especially like the standing up for the little guy in the game, which I've been practicing as much as possible in my former alliances.
2. If applicable why do you want to leave your current alliance?
- I wanted to leave MX because of the disorganisation that had befallen the alliance and the lack of will to fight a war that had been approved by the alliance. It was not an easy choice as admin, but when I realised that the only fight we would be able to put up would either be in vain or only help people who would never return the favor, I decided to leave.
3. What is your IK history; List of Wars, Friends and Enemies. Alliances you've been in.
- I joined Angel when I'd been playing a couple of weeks, but because of the lack of organisation, I decided to leave after having been appointed diplomat. Ironically the same reason I ended up leaving MX, but the organisation I was looking for was there when I joined. The people inviting me there have all gone inactive, but I've made some other friends, especially in Valheru now, and some I've brought with me here. I was in the Great War for a while losing 5 isles, but that never really brought me any enemies, quite the contrary in fact. I think that some people in HAWK might still hold a grudge against me for an early game conflict where I took 2 isles, but I'm not sure about this. Otherwise the only enemy I can think of is the player forx who over colo'd me right before the Great War and never paid any compensation.
4. How would you describe yourself as a player, What are your traits, both good and bad?
- I play for the alliance in both good and bad. I don't just obey orders if they seem irrational, and I analyze situations before engaging. I like to play defensive, since fleet-stealing is so sweet. I do have a tendency to provoke people when I'm drunk though, but this tendency have yet to get me into any real bad trouble.
5. How much experience do you have of playing Inselkampf?
- I've been playing since late october, and I've been a diplomat in two different alliances and also admin in one. I've had some fighting experience as well, so I would say that I have a great deal of experience.
6. How would you briefly describe yourself as a person: Age, Gender, Native Language, Hobbies, Education, Lifesituation and so on.
- I'm a 24 year old male from Denmark. I'm studying history working towards my Masters degree, and concerts and parties would still have to be my hobbies. I'm thinking about learning a lot about beer other than just drinking it though.
7. Describe your current technical situation in the game. Isles, Fleets, Garrisons, which Ocean you are in etc.
- I have a few isles developing, but most of my isles are fully built and producing army 24/7. Spears exceed 6000 on some isles, 5000 on several isles and 4000 on even more. I also have a growing amount of stonies and I've started to produce archers on some of the best defended isles. I only recently discovered the advantage of having a large amount of catapults, so I now have ~150 but growing. I'm a little spread out, but my main cluster is in O12. I have two lonely strongholds in O22 and O23, and a new cluster growing in O34. I also have some sattelites in O2 and O4.
8. What were your best and worst moments in the world of Inselkampf?
- The best moment was kampfing a clearly superior fleet, and the fun I had when first joining MX.
- The worst moment was to see MX fall apart the way it did, and see all attempts at communication fail. Realising defeat was perhaps the worst part, but finding out that the admin of our feeder alliance had gone inactive without telling anyone is a high ranking worst moment as well.
9. What is you opinion of multis and scripters?
- I don't like the way they ruin the game for honest players. If I wanted to play a game where you have to cheat to win, I would join Tour d' France. Scripters are worse than multis in my opinion, since they don't even take the time to play the game.
10. Regarding pacts and peace treaties, what do you understand by those terms?
- Peace treaty is a guarantee that two alliances don't attack each other, and at the same time a step towards closer co-operation. Pacts are mutual fighting and supporting alliances, and I would expect my pact-mates to fight for me like I would fight for them if necessary.
11. Are you aware that Morkin, and therefore KoM, are rather peaceful alliances not actively seeking domination or war.
- I'm well aware of this, which is another reason for me joining. I much prefer to get along with people rather than being aggressive.
12. Please note anything which you feel might support your application to KoM.
- I know Fingal, Arminius, 2kcastle, blazed and Ashimar. And I know you have other danish players! Apart from that I have contacts in H|F and FOIMP.
13. Are you currently in any wars/squabbles with other players? What combat have you been involved in on this server?
- No current conflict. I've taken tsunamied isles, and I've taken two isles from HAWK members as mentioned above. I've also killed 2 colo-fleets, one during the brief conflict with HAWK and the other in the Great War.
14. What is your attitude to helping your alliance as well as pacted alliances during a war? Are you aware that if you join Morkin you would be expected to fight for the good of the alliance if war came and that these wars may require a significant contribution over a period of time (within reason)?
- I'm well aware of this fact, and I've already taken an isle that Morkin had cleared and send stonies to help defend.
15. Does anyone else have access to your account and what is their IK name? If yes what are their IK names and ID's?
- Pille, ID 9688 - most likely quitting
- Fingal, ID 421
I'll change my password soon though, but I've trusted my account with these two and would do so again if necessary.
16. Have you had your account name changed in the past. If so, please provide the old names.
- No other names.
17. What is you game ID? (ID is in the addressbar when you go to rankings and click on yourself. Like ....p=member&id=1234 where the 1234 would be the ID)
- ID 2909
