GOD’S PLAN

I would like to preface this by saying a big thank you to my Religious Extremist brothers and sisters. You guys are the best team that I’ve ever worked alongside.

Couldn’t be prouder to work alongside my fellow Ayatollah’s; Zuni, HerrSchmidt, Stan, Khawasi, dakoolnoob, Champion, Uncle and MagicDust - couldn’t have done it without you guys at all. Carrying shifts when we looked dead in the gutter. Not a single ounce of arguing, even when things didn’t look great. You guys are brothers and I’m glad to have had such great people step up to the job when many others wouldn’t.

The amazing jihadists; Aaassh, Belkas, DongGuem, deft, Tiksan, Unique, Antuntun, Harley, ThunderThighs, NutBurger, BMO, RebelOnline, mikk and xanty - you guys are killers. A special s/o to RebelOnline, ThunderThighs, Aaassh who carried us though godless times, kept our faith strong and ensured we were never led astray.



Huge thanks to all our first pagers Aaassh, Lot, bblake17, Defectus, dakoolnoob, RebelOnline, Nihar, Yellow, Hopslam, Uncensored, Copper, budzy, KingsterBin, KopNudler, acesoron, cestlatimmy, CaptHindsight, TheBailer, haohao229900, Daskeuh

This was easily the most stacked team I’ve ever worked with, you guys are god’s chosen people.

For all those wondering how this really went down… here you go :)

This was a social experiment
This was a social experiment conducted by the leaders of the Monarch family to see if high highs and the lowest of the lows truly did forge us in fire and we could put egos to one side to “win” elimination. It all started with a voice call after the land settlement with JFK + Crypto had been agreed between myself, champion, uncle and Nova. We planned on “rigging” the competition until the final four - after which point it became fair game.

Of course, our plans hinged massively on whether or not we were drawn four different teams. The luck of the draw saw us all being placed on separate teams, meaning we could begin conducting the next phase of our plans.

Securing leadership
This was a task, as always. But surprisingly it went down without a struggle. My good friend Champion crafted a wonderful piece which I politely asked to copy in my bid for RE leadership.

Ensuring that all four teams could secure leadership was done with and it came to the next phase of planning, how to rig this thing to see us four in the final four.

Getting the ball rolling
Once this was secured we quickly teamed up and recruited a fifth team. We had always planned on removing them for obvious reasons. Stretch and co were removed with ease, as were the flower team. It became quite apparent what was going on at this stage and our plan was close to being foiled.

Final four
The gloves at this point were off and we each planned on doing whatever we could to win. Backstabbers fourth placement was an unfortunate situation that ultimately led to Hivemind and Religious Extremists teaming up to remove the impending doom of AUTISTIC-DRAGON waking up.
Some back and forths between us nearly saw Cheese, despite being zeroed just hours earlier, nearly make the greatest elim comeback of all time.
It was absolutely nail biting stuff for everyone involved. Hivemind have been the best team this competition and absolutely powered through attempts to zero them, they were easily amongst the best led teams this competition.


Huge respect to the leaders of both cheese, Backstabbers and Hivemind. You guys are brilliant. I only ever did this for recognition from brother dark mode.


tl:dr
- Three guys fixed the final four of a competition of 12,000 because we could.
- No, contrary to rumours, we did NOT decide on a winner beforehand.
- Cheese Hive and Backstabbers amazing
- Religious Extremists even more amazing
- Nova, Fidel and Ekim are the GOATs
- Zuni, Khawasi, DKN, Stan and Herr are the brothers I didn’t know I had

Your team Religious Extremists came in 1st place after your 504 attacks in the Elimination competition. You have been credited with 10 tokens. Thank you for participating.

WOW what can i say about RE!

We started off with the least amount of attack and were written off by most people. However we did not lose any FAITH, our fellow members were relentless during pushes and stepped up when it mattered. It all comes down to decision making in the leadership room and i can honestly say we didn't argue once and made all the right choices between us. We had a great team in there and all had the same motive which was to win this competition.

I definitely have increased my friends pool both people from RE and other teams, which i am grateful for.


HUGE respect to all at RE <3 We baptised the whole of TORN.

Warriors of Faith, Zealots of Righteousness, and our Ayatollahs,

Tonight, Religious Extremists gather here on hallowed ground, where the spirit of our ancestors and the will of the Almighty have converged to witness an extraordinary triumph. With hearts filled with gratitude and unwavering devotion, we stand before you, not as mere mortals, but as instruments of our Chosen Ones.

In the face of adversity, we embarked on a journey that tested our faith, strength, and unwavering commitment to justice. We, the valiant souls, were drawn together from all corners of the torn, united by purpose, to preserve the Holy Land and thwart the forces of darkness that sought to desecrate it.

Now, as we stand on the precipice of triumph, let us not forget the sacrifices made by our fellow Extremists who gave their all in this holy crusade. Their spirits watch over us from the heavens, their valor an inspiration to us all. Indeed, we owe our victory to the Almighty, who worked tirelessly through us, ensuring that His plan prevailed over the forces of extremism and darkness.

As we celebrate this momentous victory, let us remember that it is not the end of our journey but the beginning of a new chapter in our mission to protect and preserve the Holy Land. With faith as our compass and the Ayatollahs as our guide, we shall continue to stand vigilant against any threat to the sacred soil of our holy land.

To the team that had no drama! One of the greatest Leadership / Council to ever bless this elimination, and the most kick-ass group name to ever take the crown! This was for you!

It was an honor to be with every single one of you!

To Ovo, Herr, Khawasi, Stan, Dak, and MD...It was a blessing! We kept it real and brought it home to the Holy Lands.

To the top hitters: Thank you for going all out and making it happen, believing in our cause!

To the push callers and those who kept the others in line - off the top of my head Nutburger - Aaassh- Rebel - Awesomesauce - Thunder - so many of you that relayed all the calls from discord to Torn. Great work all around ! Communication was key and y’all rocked it.

@Everyone - Even though at times you had other Torn members feed you lies to break away from the faith, you carried on and put your trust in us to get us where we needed to be! We couldn't have done it without yall!

Operation Sleeping Giants

Our plan was always to be the least scary team, sneak up and hit the end zone stacked. Looks like our crazy plan won, despite some nervous moments!

We would never have got to where we did without the alliances, so shout out to champion, Uncle, nova for keeping the faith and pulling strings until it got down to the last 4

Calm Team Spirit


What separates this elim from all others was the team spirit.

During the whole competition, there was such a calm, companionable comradeship.

Lead / council chats were not only very constructive but there was no negativity, only different views & ideas forwarded for consideration.

Decisions were swift, everyone was on the same page.

Simply put, the whole experience was a pleasure.

Star Team, not a Team of Stars


Everyone. From new guys with hardly a clue how to play, to old guys who kept saying they were retired - from bounties to guidance, from the first few hours of inception this Team pulled together as one cool unit

MVPs

As above, one would really have to name at least 500 players. The chat callers, council and other leads were tireless, the rest of the team unwavering- it really was a holistic performance

Huge shout out to Ovoxo, Khawasi, zuni, Stan, MagicDust - we formed a brotherhood that never wavered.


This day the LORD will deliver you into my hands, and I’ll strike you down and cut off your head.

Great Team Work. Good Leaders and Council Members. Push leaders were so good. Was a great Elims experience.

Faced some really good teams that made us work every single push. Very happening Elims.

Hits have been made and whatever tasks leaders assigned me have been done. See you in the next Elims.

Enjoy and have fun.
#7th Hitter of the Religious Extremists.

Honestly, can´t even be mad at these guys. They played it very well. I am curious to see what else they got up their sleeve.

Eventhough there was a point where everyone knew what was happening, nothing could be done. Hats off to all of you XD
