This was by far the most fun and intense experience I've had in this game so far. Whether it be recovering from my OD early on to regain my spot in top 5% to responding to pushes it was basically non stop action throughout. I'm amazed at how dedicated this team is and it motivated me to give it my all up to the very end. Thank you Hivemind.

PUBLIC APOLOGY I know today was an important day for the team and i ruined it all by going to work, If i would have just called in sick we would have won for sure, I am a terrible player, terrible team mate and a terrible human being, I will be locking myself in the closet for 1 week 5 hours 6 minutes and 42 seconds as a punishment for ruining our amazing team!
seriously though, Congrats to RE you did great! and amazing job Hive, you all did amazing! we would have won this for sure if we didnt have to take a break to clean the fridge..... damn that cheese was moldy... what a nasty smell! oh well all clean now anyways!

First ever elim, never felt like entering before. Was fun fighting with everyone. I came in woefully unprepared with only 12 xan, 22 blood bags and horrible gear.

Hi hi! Was an honour serving with the hivemind. Can't say it doesn't sting to be so close to no. 1 but I think I'd be just as excited the first time seeing that I got in this team even if I knew how things will go.
Thanks for making my first elimination an awesome one! If ever new elims lets us meet again I'd love to be at your sides once more, and hate to go against you absolute beeasts. Hivemind activity is just something else, its a real challenge to even use my e with such fierce fighters on our side.
Wasn't just the fighting either that had me amazed, the organisation was sure something else! Push captains, slacker patrol, and hive builders were some of the most dedicated folks I've ever seen. All the banter in our discord and the hive chat was so fun too, I'm gonna miss seeing that skull-and-bones tab for sure.
My one regret is not buying enough trains before this event so I can wear the honeycomb honor bar alongside the rest of you beeautiful people. Wish that we did take this one home but with all that we did to get here and how much we took on, I'd say we're winners in spirit! <3

So much human time wasted for a non-competitive competition.
I expected Torn devs / mods to make sure the leaders of the time are going to be opposed.

Round of applause for the absolute gem of the team, @Gem. Best gem in game, period.
Oh and shout out to #slacker-patrol, you're the GOAT. Don't care about the placement, what we had there is what matters more than any honor bars or tokens.

I had a somewhat unexpected blast doing elims with hive. It was a great reminder to expand my little torn circle every once and a while. Loved the energy and positivity. Thank you Hive leadership, you all were class.
I wanted to say thank you to the most incredible elims team that I’ve ever had the privilege to be a part of. The leadership was absolutely top-notch and incredibly attentive. Everything ran like a finely tuned machine without a hint of drama.
A huge shoutout to Champion, Gem (especially for being super attentive to the ideas I had and letting me implement them!), Zorfar, Marcinko, Cindy, WhackedMaki and anyone else on the leadership/council team (sorry if I missed out anyone's name, I just didn’t manage to chat to you over the course of elims!). Your plans were super sound, and all the orders just made perfect sense to me. I had hoped to, and I believe I managed to learn a lot from all of you on what makes a good leader and how to really herd a 1200 strong swarm (normally just a herd of cats)! Extra big thank you for the giveaways that funded so many boosters so that my poor ass could put in more hits!
A ton of people chipped in everything they had, and newbies from all corners stepped up. Thank you to Nyx, Invert (thanks again for the cans and FHCs too for that push!), Bitsy, RealLune, Dim, and anyone else. No matter the player age, everyone really stepped up and did everything that they could!
Ultimately, Hivemind showed Strength, Resilience and Tenacity and the best team spirit. Some may claim that elims is pointless because it costs you things like gym gains, networth, and all that sort of stuff when you sign up, and of course it does. But the tangible things that you lose are far outweighed by the intangible things that you gain out of it, such as friends, experiences like that heart pounding moment where we just barely managed to melt the cheese (bad pun I know) by the skin of our teeth. And such things can have no price on them.
To Hivemind, I love you all, and I wouldn’t exchange this team and leadership for any other team in the world <3

I feel a bit left out with you not naming the 250 "slacker mommies"..... haha
I'm just going to come out and say it: Elimination in Hivemind was peak Torn. Not sure what will ever compare.
First day of Elim vs Yesterday:
"fawkses says:
Hey there IceeSwirl , just reaching out since we noticed you have only made 0 hits so far.
We'd really appreciate if you could start making more hits or let us know how best to help you out! Please do your best to make at least 1 hits and follow along with pushes."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"LemonGrenade says:
Hi IceeSwirl,
As the final showdown approaches, it's crucial that we stop the bleeding of tickets from our low end.
As you are one of the top hitters of Hivemind, you have been selected as a mommy in the (voluntary) Adopt-a-Slacker programme. You have been matched with three low level hitting players of various activity levels from inactive to somewhat active."

GG HIVEers,
This is my first time ever in joining the Elimination. Has made exactly 500 attacks. Flying back and forth and attacking.
The last 2 days was very exciting and fun, I did not sleep till the last hours, last drop of our lives.
I am so proud to be part of this, again thanks to all those who participate attacks, who contribute boosters/drugs/meds/ and the leadership team.

Thank you for all the effort put in by leadership and their helpers, I had an awesome time being in the hivemind and meeting new and old players.
It's a shame we couldn't quite get the win but that's cool, we can try again next year

gg all!
This year's scenario seems like a loose definition of rigged. So a few people in the same faction randomly got assigned different teams, took leadership positions, and worked together. That's just typical elim strategy stuff. Alliances would have been formed and broken anyway. It was the ability to stack players into a particular team that made previous years feel so slanted.
It's just propaganda at this point. Losers eat it up because they need a convenient excuse why they lost. If this year was rigged because people formed an alliance to benefit their team then every year was rigged.
I'm really enjoying the random teams much better. You don't get a couple NS teams and a couple crypto teams anymore. It's a much better mix. And obviously the majority of people with M leaders are happy with letting M leaders join their team's leadership groups.
