Seeing as how the world is in the twilight of its activity I felt it might be appropriate to start this thread. Here are the greatest moments that shaped the world into what it is today from what I've seen.
1. LD/ER Merger- Without this I would guess that both alliances would be sub top 5 from inactivity by now. The merger put fresh players back in the line up and gave both alliances a late game boost.
2. Jason's MRA Coalition- The coalition itself imploded and lasted less than a month leaving only Myrmidons and some random alliances to fend off their enemies. But because of the fact that this was attempted we saw a need to unite the core against the threat of 2000+ players surrounding us. Had this not happened things would have played out way differently than they did.
3. Delos Imperium- Brought a challenge to an otherwise weak eastern front. Until then it was just Myrmidons waiting to be slaughtered like sheep.
4. Deathwish Bails on Lacking Diplomacy- Who is Deathwish? He was the founder of Lacking Diplomacy however he took off before BP ended. This caused a minor exodus of players to ER and nearly crumbled Lacking Diplomacy before it really ever got going had it not been for some quick thinking leaders. Why is this important? This shaped the entire world as we know it. Had Deathwish stayed then LD would have more than likely stayed true to its name and not made a pact. Because of what was happening and the turmoil losing the only founder in BP caused we had to quickly act to save the alliance. That involved throwing out the no diplomacy policy. Fun Fact: Lacking Diplomacy had no founder until DW ghosted in November or December.
5. Mike62 Takes Ill- No Mike getting sick wasn't a great moment. However the events that followed certainly were as they nearly toppled Exiled Renegades and completely changed the north. Just ask some of the guys about Sassy Thang and the revolt she led on Chilliwacker. This nearly toppled ER at one point as their top players either left for Sassy's alliance or for LD. Revolt ended when Annabell quit for Helorus and took most of the alliance with her. Returning the current #1 player Unshapedchimpeus and the remaining squad to ER eventually and resulting Sassy being rimmed. They also brought Aurora's loyalty into question and would help to get us here today.
6. Hellfire & Aurora vs LD- This is perhaps the most underrated event in Delos. Until this point LD and Aurora had been pacted and trying to work together. Though LD knew by then of an impending attack by Aurora we couldn't act with Hellfire on our heels and still were seeking to resolve our differences anyways. When we did something about Hellfire our retribution came quick and the war was over in an op or two I believe when we rimmed their leader. Some key things happened here. First we ended up with a multitude of strong players who would play a huge role in our wars in the future. Second we discovered that Hellfire was actually allied with Aurora and that Aurora was waiting to deal the killing blows once Hellfire got going. Because of this we rallied our allies against Aurora and began perhaps the most important war in the server.
7. Manowar and League of Warriors- Brought some legitimate power to the west. More by the hands of League of Warriors than Manowar but I guess both deserve credit.
