When I was with Pyro I allowed myself to random but I had to be directed to the province to make the hit. My sins included waving small kingdom(but sometimes I abstained), razing provinces in FS despite a good war, using out of game chat, using the bot, accepting LDs without retaliating and usually waiting for micromanagement types of orders. I didn't completely learn pump, but I recorded the formulas which I ape to achieve decent numbers.

The last time I actively randomed for acres was maybe age 57. I joined Villains late in the age and they needed me at 1200 acres for war. Ran an undead cleric called Two-Handed Sword Squad. First kingdom I joined that actually maintained the blanket 24/7. They had a great monarch.

My favorite monarch and friend is makeo. He knew about my unorthodox style but he also knew I had short breaks at work. I'd sign on and I'd have mail telling me who to hit in war. He understood nw zones/relay tapping so he was intuitively giving me targets to clear the zone. I ran an elf cleric there. He got irritated with my sloppy strat in TFC but he was right. He taught me soldier swapping during eowcf. He also joined me in my solo kingdom shell and proved to be fearless. We go way back to the days when I eyeballed every attack.

My favorite kingdom was Aggression is the Liquor, a barbarian kingdom. We'd wave and war. Oftentimes we'd be double offensive hostile and UF with a third kingdom. Essentially we'd just compete with each other at our kingdoms expense but we were told more than once we lived up to our name in war. They don't make them like that anymore.

I'll let you know when I feel like droning by accident ;-)

On Topic - I'm curious to see Jesters after the fact. See how they bounce back.
