As promised a statement on the dropping of the dirty bomb.
Seeing how the newspaper hacks normally get it completely wrong and write a load of crap, i thought it best to make my statement in public.
So happy to answer any questions (will amend this post with any questions worth answering)
I will start with the obvious question:
Why did i drop on and why pick the faction chosen?
Well there are many reason for this, in no particular order they are:
Because I can
They were nominated on my thread and I did state it would be someone nominated
To give Bogie his first challange as community manager to handle the panic of newer players wondering what the **** has happened
To give ED a reason to post a thread either claiming i wasted money using it on him or to claim credit for the bombing and he was behind it.
Because I can
Because no-one else in torn seems to have the balls to drop it.
To show Ched how shit DBs still are and why he needs to let me blow up the stock exchange instead of factions
Why FTW
Because they are FTW
They were on the list
because its fun hitting them
to get them to react and maybe get insurgancy to throw some bombs themselves
Do i fear reprisals?
No, i want them to react. Lets see if insurgancy have the balls to use theirs!
Boring/this bomb is a waste/hey im ED give me attention
I always welcome views of the minority of Torn before dismissing it.
Was JFK behind this?
No, they didnt even know the target till after it was planted. Let me make this clear. Regardless of whether i am part of JFK or not, they have no say in what i do with my DBs and have never had a say. They do not know targets until after its been planted.
These are my DBs not JFK's
How much damage did i do
Your dirty bomb has detonated, injuring 401 citizens and severely damaging Forged Through War, decreasing its respect by 286,776 to 3,588,858. 2019/01/09 8:03:00 PM
How many DBs is that you have now dropped?
this is number 4. Number 5 is in my display case and number six in the process of gathering cesium
Worth it?
You tell me, dropping a bomb and breaking torn! how many people can say they did that!
Do i think L4 is a scammer for not dropping his?
L4 and 39th have a long history in torn. Also DBs have just been released. Lets give them time to do this. Its only been a couple of days. If in a month or so still nothing then we can ask this question.
When is the next one?
Lets give Ched and the Dev guys time to fix the issues before i do it again and find more!
I hear you got injured in the bomb too?
A piece of flying debris from a large explosion hits you.
Just logged in on my PC for a change and decided to look at the forums. Saw a mountain of crap (with the usual suspects playing in it) and thought why cant anything be done.
So Ched do everyone a favour. Let me waste 20b of my pixels and drop a DB on the forums. As part of it, anyone who has created a thread in the past 48 hours gets hosped and cannot post in the forums for 31 days.
I am sure everyone will be happy.
Yes i understand i would be hit to but shit i rarely post these days so dont care! but imagine the peace and quiet us pensioners of the game could enjoy!
I have no intention of reading all the crap but seriously, how pathetic everyone is!
Everyone wants more "real rewards and prizes" not a badge that is worthless....
News everyone, anything you get is worthless pixels so who gives a shit!
And then lets face the reality most prizes based on the top n% are likely to be won by the usual suspects so for most players they get f all anyway so what does ot matter.
Seriously what happened to the days of people joining in just because they want a reason to have fun and attack different people from the normal faction opponents!
Seems like my firewalk virus collection has value too! so swapping them. 100 firwalk virus for 1 cesium!
Seriously for those wanting to get rid of cesium but worried about mugging, you get to break down the cesium into small chunks and sell slowly so less lilely to attract those buy-muggers!
