So, r2d2poor is missing a leader. If we can't get meph back to delegate the leadership, I'm happy to set up a breakaway clan.

I wish he would come back and designate a new leader, or at least a few officers. This is a mess.

Sorry about that. Promoted an officer Blackdog420, and left so he should get leader since he was the first to message me. Accepted the outstanding application on my way out. Good luck.

Meph has promoted me to leader. I have not been in the group nearly as long as others, but I will admit to being a very active player who would probably make a better officer than leader. We're not a dictatorship here so if anyone else would like to take hold of the reins then please speak out. Since I have only been the group for a few months, I feel I'm not the best candidate to lead.

Regardless of who becomes the leader, here is some ~food for thought~ regarding inactive players.

I think any player who has been inactive for over 60 days should be put on an 'Yellow Alert' :cop: list. Meaning that you won't be immediately kicked, however, if we need the room for new players then you will potentially be removed. Basically if you don't play then you become a potential expendable. I feel like 60 days is alot of time, and gives alot of breathing room.

None if this is a big deal. And if you're booted then you can always come back if/when there's space.

What's the size limit? With the game dropping off new hotness status hopefully this will be a less pressing concern.

Mephology only lead from the shadows; I don't think he ever logged in since becoming the boss.

I don't mind Blackdog being leader, though I would kick anyone with 30 days of inactivity. On the other hand, making room for new folks isn't really a priority; we've had one request now, but I can't even remember when the previous one was.

Speaking of, is the new guy even a goon? Say something here if you are, mysterious train "enthusiast". Be not ashamed, there are much worse things you could masturbate to.

The Current size limit is 30 players. I left the group to pass the reins; either PISTON or Fighting Guy are now the leaders.

I sent in an application for a reinvite


EDIT: if Fighting Guy is the leader then expect new rules regarding dewback donations and their overall majestic nature.

Meph was a big help for a large part of my time in R2D2.

As has been stated, purging the inactives goes hand in hand with how many new people are waiting to get in. If there aren't a ton of people clamoring to get in, there's no reason to clean house.

However, if there are a decent number of inactives, it's nice to keep a slot or two free for new goons joining, so they don't have to wait for you to kick someone after they post in the thread.

If the new lead wants to chat, PM me. Otherwise, good luck and keep R2D2 going.

I just found it funny that he became our dear leader after quitting the game. His loss is felt every time I request troops; guy was a machine, donating snipers seemingly 24/7.

Thanks! Hopefully I can come back at some point. Ended up with a new job 5 weeks ago and a relo came with it so my life kind of got turned upside down. Been barely able to keep up the CoC addiction. Will drop an application soon when I have settled in a little more. Feel free to give me the boot to make room for more active players if I do reapply.

I posted this in chat but if whoever is leader wants to make me an officer I'd be happy to help out. I may even draft a new OP today since I just got out of the hospital and have a lot of free time on my hands.

I promoted: ShittyRapper (Drake), Triggs

The Request to Join from TrainLoverDude fell off the page, so I couldn't bring him in. Retry, dude!

The group roster is at 25/30. I won't start booting until we get full and I'll be looking at last logins.

Just so that the uninformed assholes know, every once in a while I will randomly fill my barracks with nothing but dewbacks and will not do any fighting or dispensing of snipers until that supply is exhausted. This is to raise dewback awareness. I may or may not warn you ahead of time.

Business aside, while I am still interested in the game, I'm not playing as much as I used to (blame Fallout 3) so if anyone would like to try their hand at leading, let me know.
