Ghetto Monarchy Stories (Let's share...)

[vendetta]

I'm just a forum lurker these days but I do still read some posts here and still read a lot of nubly posts about the other KD not withdrawing etc. So, I had a flashback of funny stories of when I was leading ghettos or was trying to build a Ghetto into a project and competitive KD. I (still) get the feeling that I'm talking that the other dude posting is another 16/17 year old kid like I was in '01/'02 playing this game.

So, what's your funniest / craziest / annoying / mildly interesting ghetto monarchy story?

Here's mine:

One, that's on the top of my head is that I am quite competitive back in the days even in a ghetto. I literally sleep just 4 hours for ghetto wars because I freaking refresh and analyze my KD news feed - and it's a freaking ghetto war. Anyways, I played with this American - he was in the Army stationed in Afghanistan I think. Initially, I thought I was the one who plays with an edge - but this guy would literally ping me over MSN talking about every move we have to make - or need to make and he would bash caps-locked messages on me at times just to make a point. Dude's intense.

He's also the brashest guy in the forums and would smack talk their monarch through PMs. He was actually a decent player so he can back it up -- but one fun part is when he gets chained -- and will have a hissy fit of all-Caps on MSN and the forums. And here's the best bit: It came to a point that I had to convince him that we need to withdraw wars by giving him reasons. For him, it's winnable -- every time. He would literally spend an hour drawing up a gameplan on MSN or convince me we are still doing fine. Sometimes I give in and let him lead some hits, but of course none of them works. But I have to convince him again.

And when we win, he's actually the most civil guy to post a lengthy note to the opponent. He's the most active guy and was playing with me til I got that shiat of a ghetto KD to the top 30-40 tier ghetto playing so many years ago. It was fun playing in a ghetto with those kinds of people -- reminds me of us basically teenagers / kids playing this game more than a decade ago.

This is one large part I miss playing this game...in ghettos.
