If I didn't go with them then half would have gone without me anyway.

What happened in Fresh was a completely predictable reaction to a chain of events starting with Maxs forum quest, resulting in highly focused Empire grief and culminating in the Alliance.

I, of course, have some regrets but ultimately I don't feel I was capable of changing the outcome much.

Max went a bit overboard because he didn't see it as a game. FQ is important but it's a game, just like the rest of it.

<Empire> has so completely won the box that Sirken has actually started a thread debating wiping it clean. If you guys want to avoid that it's time to start thinking about how you're going to help the box instead of yourselves. To see the population PLUMMET after Velious opened because you guys so completely shut it down was nothing short of amazing. Grats you...but c'mon. There's winning and there's just being completely stupid. <TMO> could have done a great deal of good here...especially if you guys had gotten together behind the scenes and talked about it a bit.

Forest, trees and all that shit.

Peace.
