The camaraderie and participation are not gone, Christopher. WGC stays true to its ethos and, despite attempts to spoil it, we still help new players and foster trust and friendship in the game. Sadly, many long-standing players, who were part of our fed then, left the game as a result of having their empires stolen from them in this war. But, because of the way we play, new friendships are formed and WGC has more members now than we did then. We also have our own forum, which welcomes members and non-members alike, and where we all enjoy the camaraderie of helping each other do better in the game
The mob doesn't exist any more, to all intents and purposes, but most of its members are still playing and still targeting those worth raiding who don't protect themselves. They also keep changing their names, to maintain the element of surprise. EC is currently called
'Boogeyman' and Serpent is
'Trintrotoluene', but don't expect those names to last. After all, it wouldn't be 'fun' if you saw them coming, now would it?
Hugs and respect
Jo
