TDT announces a Halloween dirty bomb on any faction housing Farcough

The announcement

On 22 Sep 2026 Zedrow [3256393] opened a thread announcing, on behalf of Atari [307651], that any faction housing Farcough [2613589] when Halloween starts would have a dirty bomb dropped on it. The warning applied only if Farcough held member status, not recruit status.^[1]

The thread drew 373 replies from 167 different players. It is now titled "Deleted" and sits in the Graveyard board.^[2]

Mercenaries, a mug list and a dirty bomb

Zedrow wrote that Farcough had spent a substantial portion of their networth on mercenary services to hospitalise members of TDT, and that the contracts had seemingly gone to TNL and a sister faction. Zedrow said this made Farcough an enemy of TDT. Participant claim^[1]

Zedrow said Farcough had been a leader and banker in TDT but lost their permissions about 6 months earlier over attitude problems and general instability. Zedrow wrote that TDT had no problem with the factions housing Farcough and did not want a war. Participant claim^[1]

Zedrow's account named Nemesis [2163874] as the reason Farcough and leadership fell out. Zedrow said Nemesis kept a mug list and kept mugging a profitable target who had joined TDT. Participant claim^[1]

Nemesis replied that the mug target applied to TDT and was accepted before anything was said. Nemesis said the target was later removed after telling Farcough to shut up and mind their own business. Nemesis also said they were in leader chat because their long-term circle was there, and called themself a retired inactive player. Participant claim^[3]

Nemesis later said they were not dropping a dirty bomb and that Zedrow was not either, but that Atari might. They called the bomb a waste and said their own 100m expense against Farcough's 10b+ networth was working on its own. Participant claim^[4]

Replies go after TDT leadership

Derrick [2192688] asked whether everyone would pass over leadership ignoring one faction member mugging another. Derrick called that toxic and called the merc spending cringe. The post had 67 likes.^[5]

Zaddy [2072427] wrote that letting someone mug "100's of millions" from a fellow member was crazy. In a second reply Zaddy called the dispute "3rd grade ass drama".^[6][7]

Shooby [2510470] wrote that TDT was upset about being merc'd for 13b and that its retaliation would burn 50b+ to moderately inconvenience a faction. These figures are Shooby's own. Participant claim^[8]

Shooby compared the dispute to two 8 year olds arguing about whose dad is richer. In another reply Shooby offered the targeted players a place with them for a 10b entry fee, plus 10b more because they were currently TNL. Joke^[8][9]

Magic [2471842] and fuck [2669774] also criticised TDT leadership. fuck called the faction and its leaders pathetic.^[10][11]

Some replies defended the move. Mazino [2254401] said a faction that does not want a dirty bomb could simply not house Farcough as a full member. Cheesus [505043] asked whether Farcough could avoid it by staying out of a faction during Halloween.^[12][13]

Omanpx [1906686] posted a summary alleging that Nemesis mugged their own member for hundreds of millions, that Farcough left and ordered a permahosp contract on TDT, and that someone from TDT, likely Nemesis, sent an anonymous message. Omanpx showed a $1 message dated 22/09/26. Allegation^[14]

TDT leadership answers back

Sakura33 [2133452], who said they were part of TDT leadership, wrote that the faction's friendships were real and that leaders in the screenshots had argued against kicking someone for being annoying. Participant claim^[15]

Sakura33 said the mugging had not been brought to leadership as a dispute and that the member involved had said they had no issue with it. Sakura33 also posted a log they said showed Farcough mugging Mazino while both were in TDT. Participant claim^[16][17]

Heathcliffe [2245396] mocked the leadership's reasoning, writing that a member who had invested 4k days in the faction was being kicked for being annoying. Joke^[18]

Graved, and a counter-thread

HavokGDI [133687], a forum moderator, wrote that the thread was graved because the op deleted it. They added that TDT still owed "us a DB for halloweek".^[19]

The same day dark95 [2321537] started "DIRTY BOMB ANNOUNCEMENT [ PART II ]" in General Discussion. It announced, on behalf of Farcough, a dirty bomb on whatever faction member was still in Atari's faction at Halloween. It drew 117 replies.^[20]

JoeSkull [533524] wrote in that thread that TDT had been "clowned on by the community so bad" that they deleted the thread to pretend it did not happen. That is JoeSkull's reading of the deletion. Community speculation^[21]
