Well - that explains the lack of content - and I suppose the vacuum has to be filled with something, e.g. ego? It still remains rather vacuous, doesn't it? ;-)
I am by all means no Absalom fan but one of the reasons that Absalom managed to survive so long is that there was always a worse alliance / set of kingdoms out there.
I don't believe AquaSeaFoam is a hero but I do rather see players like him controlling the top then the massive horde of crosslogging kingdoms that used to run rampant and played the antagonist role vs. Absalom.
At least it is some comfort to be outclassed by a set of kingdoms ruled by a player that is politically talented enough to almost make you believe that they play 100% clean and have outstanding morals than by a set of kingdoms where half of the players can't even spell their own name right.
No one can really deny the impact Absalom and ASF had on this game even if you do not particularly like them.
aremarf: E_Boko and Realest really are not that bad if you have seen the leaders of kingdoms that you had deal with years ago. :D
ASF is definately one of the few players i respect from all my years in this game, granted most is in rage of abs, but even so, he is a person who stands by you in good or bad, and brings the best out in alot of people.
He is also the first person to resort to all other types of solutions when your teamed up on, before even considering calling in anyone for aid.
<3 ASF

So true. Never venture here anymore except when bored stupid during a reset.
Looks like that is going to end also
Good interview.
Good interview. I disagree with a few points tho. Why do you think lots of players think top kds are cheaters? Wtf lol. Yes, the utopia experience is not complete unless youve lead a top kd, i agree with that for sure tho. The science bit, unless youre planning on being really big near end game, sustained is good enough all round; last round i had good sciences all round and didnt get learned, particularly because i didnt get to endgame at a big size. You disregard the fact that merchants running active+ will be learn exploited mid to eoa, unless youre in a top 1-2 kd obv. If you say the utopia experience is not complete unless you have lead a top kd, id like to say the utopian experience is not complete unless youve led a mid sized warring kd as well.
AquaSeaFoam sucks.
He doesn't like Cheese and Flogger.
They're the best.
And I always thought of Tredvolt during that RUST vs IRON age as the first giant cow. He got big and then fed his kingdom up.
History is written by the winners who climb over the bodies of the past to tell you "how it really was"
Very nice read
Great interview
Does anyone else always imagin ASF to be and old man with a long white beard?
No not really.
