TIN became increasingly toxic with people such as Indiancartel, Treymc (treeay), Tuna (ChaoticTuna), Red (Animuh), and Nutellagod. Shortly after all of these members began to feed off one another Cyclone and Jay sought to remove the problem children.
After asking for help and dying Trey refused to help Cyclone who kited from Frostbain to Fire spire down the ice road and instead tried to pick up some free rares from Jay. A full description of the event can be read in the image to the right.
On August 29th 2019 Cyclone and Jay conducted the planned end of summer purge a week earlier in order to remove Tuna from the clan. Tuna had begun to more openly plot against Cyclone and was generally disliked by the majority of the non-toxic members of the clan. After being kicked Operation Destruction of the Iron Hoe was set up to keep an eye on, and cripple Tuna.
Intel from Operation Dusk Platoon revealed Red was playing with Anti-Autoclickers and skipping events in TIN.
Indiancartel, unable to resist playing with a different group joins AA and is kicked from TIN shortly thereafter.
On September 23rd 2019 TIN begins The War on Terror. AA was now firmly established as a premium pvp group within the Westerlands. TIN began frequent raids on Crowmure, and adopted an alliance.
TIN and The Imperial Federation (TIF) allied on September 24th 2019. The alliance aimed to build relations between the two clans. However shortly after noticeable cracks began to form. Noticeably TIF had no defined culture, and Whoopiecow lacked the ability to discipline his members properly. That is Whoopiecow couldn't keep his men in line.
The Allied Powers get into their first fight against AA.
The Allied Powers take a 12v16 against mainly AA, but 5 other people from different groups also joined in on AA's side. The Allied powers scored 8 kills, the majority of the loot, and had 6 casualties.
TIN members meme around and punch the Koreans with Cactus's to start a fight between Anti AA and the Koreans. No TIN members died.
On October 6th after being beat down by two leathers and a chain in the drained sewers of Wayvernia, Cosmic nuked AA's discord. Shortly thereafter Cosmic made a new discord, but had significantly less numbesr for the following week.
On October 10th the third reformation of TIN was announced and went into affect immediately. Noticable changes included the removal of elections, changes to the reclaimer role and an implementation of a training program by Jam. The training program included Jam's signature graduation certificate.
After seeing the cracks in TIF begin to show and take root, TIN evaluated the necessity of the alliance. After determining that TIF did not provide anything TIN already had and made minuscule differences in combat TIN ended the alliance. The following reasons made up the entire decision:
Side Note:
Fun Fact: After announcing that the alliance was ended, TIF Commander 111kittykat111 responded to the above reasons by stating that TIN was a cult blindly following Cyclone. Which, is completely false, as a member of TIN's leadership and Grand Staff expressed interest in unallying TIF.
On October 14th Nutellagod and CommanderSarcasm were playing together when they ran into 3 hostiles North of Crowmure. Sarcasm made the call to run, and Nutella defied orders and ran into fight, then promptly died. Later in the day when Cyclone heard of this and tried to explain Chain of command to Nutella, Nutella lashed out and said "Fuck you, Fuck this, Fuck you" and then left the voice chat he was kicked shortly after. It should be noted that Nutella refrained from fighting on a geared account in the later half of the summer into the fall. Nutella also was notorious for lying about his distance from locations and frequently stopped at any towns he came across to loot it even when others were waiting for him.
After the Alliance between TIF and TIN ended, the first major battle since the end of the alliance commenced. After killing a storage alt and telling Cosmic that it was killed at Lazerville TIN headed to Crow from Waterspire. Upon reaching the outskirts of Crowmure TIN encountered a member of AA. TIN managed to kill 6 of 7 AA, and lost 1 of 10 men.
After going to fight Cosmic when our own spy, Alexshepard (Zoro) was with AA, TIN members got railed. Jay, Alfa, and Vampy were all killed. Cyclone did manage to score a single kill and then escape though. Following, TIN rallied, set a trap and killed 2 people in an 8v8 then proceeded to kill 3 in a 8v4, while maintaining a casualty.
Germany's group enters the scene for the first time, as they team with AA.
TIN Captures Cosmic's player head
TIN ganks Germany and Foxbuscus. Afterwards Foxbuscus is extremely toxic, and says "I want to skin you alive" to cyclone. Shortly thereafter Foxbuscus was banned.
After Cosmic was extremely harsh to Danny, Danny couped Cosmic and effectively kicked him out of his own group. Cosmic played alone for a little over a week before reuniting with a few members, such as Pope_JP and Cedric. It should be noted that Danny's lack of leadership skills were evident and it marked the nail in the coffin for this group of players. For their last two weeks in the game the group went by the name "Degenerates."
TIN kills some randoms who were blacklisted and Cosmics as well.
TIN interferes in a fight between Ozwalds group and Germanies group. After splitting the two up cyclone chased down Ozwald and killed the "Shark" account that had over 80 kills.
I'm tism and faught with a GP alt.
Zoro, Cylcone and Jay reveal SolSalamander to be a TIN spy. The community becomes outraged and TIN laughs about it for well over a week. A day later Alexshepard was also revealed to be Zoro after a failed attempt to kill DannyPlays.
During the last battle of the war TIN faught Korea on 11/19/2019. During this 6v3 TIN killed 2 koreans, however Fercho died. The war was considered over after this fight since shortly there after a third of the Koreans were black listed. Another third of the Koreans quit. Germany's group left the west citing that they would never chase TIN into the water. Cosmics group, after having been beat to shit, and had the group torn apart multiple times quits as well. The final KD for this war was 122-47. A KD of 2.59.
