basil...ya old sea dog...ya went and got me all misty.

as a war wench (Molly) i too am moved by your recap. however, being a silver lining kind of guy, joining the dueces was really meant to be. two like minded guilds of whackos, malcontents, ocd's, and generally disturbed individuals (my apologies to the one or two guild members who don't fit this description) proved to be the sole reason i played the game.

an honor being a duece...and Basil - thanks for being you...

Well said Basil! Makes me wish I'd been around back then. There's nothing sadder than long time players leaving a game, any game. But that Top 100 guilds go with is tragic. All the work and time and dare I say it love you put into something... I can't imagine how hard that last moment of giving up a guild you built is.

Here's to the fallen guilds and the players who loved them, the next bottle's on me mates, may they live on forever in Pirate Infamy, cause isn't that the idea?

A toast..... To the fallen..... Thier exploits pave the way for the rest of us to follow...... They have left behind tales to be shared by all..... The once mighty names of infamous guilds now ring as ghostly echos from beyond....... Gone but never forgotten.......

Sorry I am late to the party!!

Basil your words made me cry. It was that or the severe pain ...... I did read what you wrote first thing after waking up after sugery.

I have to agree with so many others when they say it is a shame to see great guilds fall by the wayside. However, Thw Wenches are not gone!! We will live on through DW!!

The decision was based on many factors. Of the many one main one was I felt that WW deserved a ful time guild which I can't provide. On another note, after playing with DW for so long it would not have felt right to me to ever resurrect the WW. I would feel wierd playing without any of you on with us. That and I would want all new Wenches to join DW.

My Umbrella Academy was a huge guild - yet, not a loud one. We started out with all adult Officers, and held SEVERAL spots in the top 100 for consecutive amounts of time! We were in the top 10 many times.

The guild grew and grew - and officers started worrying more about QUANTITY than QUALITY. So.. I disbanded the members at the time, and decided to start over completely.

I now have - by choice - 9 members. =)

Id like to remember it as a large and successful guild - it STILL is successful, and STILL is accepting members, I just want to play with the members before I add them to make sure they are an addition I can be proud of, and who I can count on to conduct themselves in a way thats becoming to my guild. I've seen members from some of the 'top guilds' behave HORRIBLY. I wouldnt want that in my guild, and wouldnt tolerate it.

So...Huzzah UA! No longer huge, but now quality, over quantity.
