Sphenodon has left the . . . Universe


Ike

Recommended Posts

At approximately 16:30, Autonow took over the #1 account in Uni 9 (Cabe's, then Sphenodon's). Autonow's account (previously BlueWhaleMoon's and Urkhai's) has been taken over by "Cr4sH aNd BuRn." According to Beowulf, Spanky sent him an IM a few days ago about leaving Uni 9. Blade had a long IM conversation with the Spankster two days ago and Blade says that Sphenon00b will be playing in U36 when it opens (in a couple of days). Apparently, a very large number of Uni9 players will be starting up in U36 if anyone is interested.

Very interesting. Any idea exactly when this switchover occured, and who this "Cr4sH aNd BuRn" is?

 

 

I'd be interested in uni 36 if a lot of uni 9 players were there, but it's coming at a really bad time for me with exams the next 2 weeks, and my girlfriend coming up for a while after that. I couldn't start playing properly until Christmas at the earliest.

It occurred right about 16:30 server time today. I was checking for activity on Spanky's planets and halfway through noticed that the name had changed from Vendetta (when I started) to Autonow.

 

Yeah, even if I were inclined to play in U36 the timing would be really horrible.

I have a probe CR at 15:17 server time with Crash And Burn instead of Antonow. There was an interesting situation developing, but nothing seems to have come from it, which really confuses me. He could have nicked ~5mil crystal from my grav sat debris because he definately saw RIPs incoming on phalanx, but he never even tried. Seems he was looking to hit the RIPS on their return, although I've heard no more of that either yet.

Hmmmm, no idea when (exactly) Autonow turned over his account . . . I just know it was before 16:05 when the last stat update occurred. In a few more hours, Vendetta will disappear . . . with luck for good. :whistle:

Darn, sphen's quit for good. :P (I will still join 36) BTW, very large number is like... 4 or 5. :P

 

Was fun playing in uni 9, Werner will be taking my account today, most likely. Have fun! :D

 

I'll still hang around the forum of course. :D

 

Also, I can't believe Spanky talked to me on IRC for so long. lol he's full of crap still, but at least tried to be courteous, etc.

Strange, despite mass probing a few times when (I'm assuming) he first phalanxed the RIPs, mass probing just before they hit and not attempting to steal my sat debris, Crash And Burn didn't even attempt going after Quag's RIPs. Still, I think I prefered having Antonow next to me, considering he never probed me once. And in that vain, I don't really think he was the best choice for the largest fleet in the uni.

Well, I thought it would only be right to welcome Autonow to the Uni's biggest Fleet/Account, so the day he took over . . .

Crash And Burn has been probing me regularly since he took the account. He always spies when I've fleetsaved though, so once my exams are out the way I plan on giving him a ninja welcome. I only have one night between my exams ending and my girlfriend coming up though, so it has to be set up perfectly and hope he doesn't send overkill.

Sad to say, but Autonow has started to turtle up. No fleet builds, just ABMs for all planets and defenses . . . even on his 3:88 moon. :D

 

On the plus side, defenses are wasted points that can go away and nuking them may assist Firefly in taking over the #1 slot earlier. Not a bad goal, that. :)

Darn and I thought it was my wiping out his 2 rip's that caused spanky to run away in terror 36_2_39.gif *lol*

 

Nice hits there Ike sort of Hi Welcome greeting basket for Antonow :)

You have the biggest fleet and are #1...and you're turtling? Is that a way of saying I'm too lazy to properly fleetsave/can't play enough to adaquately protect my planets:) I bet ya anything he cant afford to move his fleet around and is gunna have to send out small attack fleets which people can return hit...and thus turtling. Just figured him out...Boo-yah!

For anyone who may be interested...

Leaving 13375 ships unaccounted for.

 

 

EDIT: Seems he's also reckless. I PM'd him saying I was online and he neither recalled nor safety probed. I doubt he was even online for the hit.

LOL this Crash and Burn guy has been trying to trade his uni 9 accounts forever. He had an old one and tried trading it and one before that and now this one.

 

Purple D needs to find players they can trust to handle their accounts :drunkards:

 

 

 

I'll help you get it Blade I would very much like to see you back in uni 9 :)
