Bringing Down Marlu - The Uncensored Version

[Cthulu]

That's kind of cool, but I have no idea what it's supposed to be saying.

It's a pillow. Pillows don't talk.

[Donquix]

Right... because there havn't been dozens of threads/posts cropping up after the truce and after the 'disband' about how to keep things on the server alive.

Add more sugar to the koolaid dude, makes it go down a little easier.

And those things would have happened in spite of you doing anything. Just like people plan things every day to keep prime entertaining, and every other game. On the planet. Ever.

Something needs to be done to keep things entertaining, what you guys were doing wasn't it.

Necen and others have commented on the timeline but thought I'd throw my personal timeline out there in case anyone is interested:

My first interaction with any Marlu person was when Mordechai killed Mooch in the crypt while I was afk. Later, in TSC, I joked about it with him and just to be funny I tipped him. I had something like 8k on me at the time and just slipped it to him and winked.

The extortion scheme started soon after that so I'm assuming I am somewhat responsible for planting the seed in Mord's mind. Sorry!

About the same time that happened, Calidus sent me a whisper asking if I was the same Mooch who played a character by the same name in Prime. I do own Mooch in prime as well so I said sure it was me. He then identified himself as someone I played with a few times in Landing. Nothing very in depth, usually just his sorc blowing off Mooch's limbs, etc. but it was enough of a connection that he felt I was Marlu material.

I got shanghaied to perform some kind of bonding ceremony that Mordechai had set up in Sol Haven. I think I was the only cleric they could find that wasn't afk at the time. The ceremony itself was posted on the officials I guess. I met a few more of the marlu people at that.

Mordechai cornered me soon after that and said my protection fee had gone up to 50k per week OR I could join them as a Marlu recruit and that Calidus had recommended me.

I was on the verge of politely telling him to fuck off but I was talking to Necen in chat and we decided I should allow myself to be recruited for the sole purpose of being mole for the organization Necen was in the process of setting up.

The rest of the planning and organizing was pretty much all done by the other members of Command. Our success was due to them. Once I had Spiffy's nifty spy script I could sit Mooch/Daffy at a table with it running and go afk for the rest of the day. So I was really probably the world's laziest spy ever. So the kudos are appreciated but somewhat misdirected. Thanks though!

As far as giving Mord my Mooch account access, it wasn't as risky a move as people are thinking. I first removed every bit of personal information, and since Mooch was the highest level character on the account (I think she was 25 at the time) even if they'd found out and rerolled her it'd hardly have been earthshattering. Giving him access did save my butt later but man, Lia was NOT happy with me at the time. I picked a bad time (right before the Friday Offensive) to make the move and it was one of the few times I didn't run it by any of Command first. Bad Tisket!

Anyway, I would like to say that I think this has been the most fun I've ever had playing an online game before. And most of that is due to the leaders of Vanguard: BriarFox, Durfin, Liagala, SomeRogue, SpiffyJr, Fortybox as well as Naitouk and RC. You guys made this great fun. And I must say, to be fair, the members of Marlu are responsible as well. I detested the things you were doing but without you I wouldn't have had a chance to play Deepthroat.

[Some Rogue]

Hehehehehehe, you said Deepthroat.

[Tisket]

I knew that's all you'd see. lol.

The birth of Mole Woman occured on 6/28/10, at 11:48 p.m., when Tisket uttered the fateful words: "OMFG I want to be a double fucking agent now!!!"

One for the record-books.

[Khariz]

Great post guys. I'm glad to see that I was justifiably paranoid about what I bothered to say in the Marlu chat.

[FAPAuctions]

There was more to this conversation, but all the good bits are mysteriously gone.
