I met Aaron playing SimCountry. He was a great player and a sincere and caring individual. He always helped and supported me through tough times in the game. My name is Wendy. Tatooed Priest was his game name and he has so many friends in the game I am one of the insignificant ones. He gave me the title 'Queen of Battle' because I was always into something. But the way he was you'd never know. He never treated me any different, and like a close friend he was always there. SimCountry will miss you.
The United Confederation will miss you. I know for certain, Dizzy, Nute, Genral Dirt, Laguna and countless others will miss you. I wish this weren't true, because Aaron/Tatooed Priest is a great man that leaves a great legacy on a small game filled with people that will miss you forever.

Your Friends,
Wendy and SimCountry

--------------------------------------------

My prayers are with his family, and friends. Please leave your thoughts and memories of TP here on this thread and let us not forget how dedicated TP was to the game. He told me several times on MSN how he loved this game. I am glad to have known him if only through SimCountry. Same goes for all of you. Remember to keep your loved one's close because tomorrow doesn't always come.

I met Aaron playing Simcountry.
When he started Seven Nation Army, he recruited me to join. Because of that, I met alot of the friends I have here today.He spent alot of time and energy creating that fed along with a website he had created.

Aaron was a caring helpful man. He loved to play this game. He helped alot of newer players learn to play this game and was always there for everyone while he played.
He will be greatly missed in our community.

Rest in peace my good friend.
My heart goes out to your family.

Wow...something like this really shows you just how little this game is in the grand scheme of life. I unfortunately never had a chance to meet TP but I have had many sing his praises to me the biggest of who was Beast/EO who is away from the game right now so I will just say that Beast appreciated TP so much and credited so much of his success and love of this game to TP.

Just two days ago I was deccing on someone to keep them from taking TP's LU countries, I honestly had no idea that he was ill, just that he was respected by many and deserved to have his empire left alone. I think we should preserve his remaining empire for as long as we play this game out of respect.

He sounds like he was a great person both in rl and in sc, wish I would have had the chance to know him, I wish his family well and that he can rest in peace.

My condolences to Aarons (Tattooed Priests) family and friends.
He will be missed greatly.

I would like to help Wendy. I gained respect for TP through his comments on the forum. They were either funny, informative or just needed to be said.

I came across this quote from TP on a thread talking about SimCountry:

'While an online game will never be completely like real life, I think that SimCountry has made strides to replicate many of its aspects.

SimCountry is quite fun to me, I couldn't be happier with a game. I just love the building involved. The building of countries, empires, friendships, federations, militaries, economies, etc.'

RIP Tattooed Priest

Cause you live on in us all even after you've gone.

I can say that I was blessed (and I am not the religious type) one day to find Tattooed Priest on MSN and we chatted for about an hour and were instant friends...he was as the obituary said...a kind compassionate man...though I did not have as much communication with him as I would have liked since that conversation...you could just tell...he was a good man! I was deeply saddened :( yesterday when I heard the news and saw his face for the first time...really puts perspective on the game when something like this happens to someone so young, 34. I support the lasting legacy of Aaron / TP on LU and My condolences go out to his wife, daughter, and family.

Rest in Peace TP

Tattooed Priest's passing is the saddest thing that's happened in this little community. I never got to play with him and now I very much wish I had.

To remember a good guy who had a kind heart, I've named a city in my main country: "Tattooed Priest."

Aaron, hopefully we'll meet some day, somewhere beyond this life, and become playmates and friends.

I am deeply saddened by this news. And my heart goes out to Tatooed Priests family. First time I heard of him was in my first week in SC. I did a search online for how to take a C3 and came across his website and It helped a great deal. I never talked to the man directly, but has always heard how helpful he was and what a skilled player he was. It seems his in game play reflected that of who he was in real life.

Perhaps one way to honor TP is by taking over his companies and renaming them in his honor. (Or his countries)

Or perhaps we can petition Simcountry to keep them open for a period of time.

You want to honour him, then remember him. Nothing in this game is forever. You want to make a tribute, rename your own corporations/countries/etc, and leave his assets alone.

no disrepect intended, life has to go on, if no one is in control of his countries they should be classed as an inactive, someone should get control asap and do things to remember him, he is a great player after all , lets honor him as best as all SC players can!

Even though I hate to comment on this board and haven't really been playing the game over the past month I think this is the dirtiest move yet. You always feel a little guilty if you take another's countries but to take them from someone who has passed on is the lowest of the low.

Slade if you don't like it, do something about it. Your petty insults are meaningless.

I'm not interested in anything anyone has to say about it.

In two days time. I'll be nestled right up to EOs country and that is the point of the raid. The plunder is just an added benefit. I have coins outta my arse and more than 250T in my direct trade account, it ain't about the money.

And let's just say it was about the money, if you don't like it do something. If not, don't make me lol.

Edit: I have more than 100 Trillion in my direct trade account, I forgot to mention the +300 coins I bought this morning.

You know "us guys" would never have taken TP's countries. We would rather the GMs took them or better yet, give them to an up and coming newb who wanted to learn the game and have a good starting point.

You don't have a leg to stand on, just a bunch of bullsh*t.

You calling anyone else a coward is a f*ckin joke and you know it, trying to bait people out of WP while you are sitting in WP so that you can waste their time with your BS c3 decs is a joke. YOU are the one making aggressive decs while hiding in WP, YOU are the one deccing inactives INCLUDING OF ALL F*CKING PEOPLE *TP* while hiding in WP. Stop pretending that everyone else should be out of WP when they are in WP because they don't have time for war at the moment when you are in WP just to protect your assets because you are a F*CKIN COWARD. YOU come out of WP and secured and you'll have no shortage of people willing to do the same you shameful coward.

Windy - "Be real, you guys were going to raid it. I just figure I'd put it to good use, and I could use the tactical position."

Great plan George W Bush...'Well, I know they were going to attack so, I attacked instead, also, they have oil, figured I'd put it to good use'. Didn't know you were a neocon. People aren't going to be fooled by that BS, Iraq was enough Dick Cheney.

You didn't even take the time to fake up any evidence that TP was going to be attacked, just made it up on the fly and thought no one would notice. What you really need is someone other people actually respect to make the pitch on your behalf, Colin Powell style. Oh wait, I forgot, you've got no one...pissed off and pissed on everyone who has ever backed you, including TP now.

Just waiting for that "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" banner, now that I think about it, you being too much of a coward to actually fight with anything at risk isn't much different than W's unwillingness to put himself at risk and instead joined the national guard or Cheney's draft dodging.

I can see it now, "The Making of a Neocon" by Windy: How I Can Show YOU How to be a Coward and Pretend that You Have Pride and Skill
