New S3

Hey guys. KitKat asked me to come say hi so I feel the need to spam. I dont know eveyone yet I intend to try. new s3 should be mental.

too right it should, I've given you access to the main part of the forum, it's a bit spartan compared to what it used to look like (80k of posts lol) but we'll build it back up

What smells?

your nose silly girl

welcome home H, it's been too long, FOAD rejoices at your return.

Thank you Bear, I have a tear in my eye, it still feels like home, not like the catacombe's i expected. Maybe there IS life after Travian death

I can't change what happened, but i intend to make up for it!

we all went a little crazy at the end last time. I don't think we ever truly healed after what the deceiver did to us. But it's a new dawn now and a steady hand at the helm.

That avatar is scary though, like she's still here somehow haunting the place. Gone but never forgotten.



anyhoo time for a progress report. We've got over 40 confirmed returners and new faces plus at least a dozen who say they SHOULD but want to wait a bit. With the new finds we'll make as standard I say we're officially a force already.

To do list: going to get the guides written up and posted for the newer players plus alliance rules and regs and traditions either tonight or tomorrow. I'll be making a place for the more experienced guys to talk over our strategy and stuff for the next server too.

By my reckoning we'll be fully good to go as a forum by the end of the weekend and after that we wait for the restart. 1 month tops I reckon. Lots to organise by then, nobody but NOBODY is going to be left without a clear idea of our direction and this team is going to roll like the oiled reaping machine it used to be.

Watch out s3 'we have become death and we are here to cleanse the world

Its my tribute to Mandi, i am going to make sure if she could see me she'd be proud. I want Mandi's to be our Matriarc Deity, the true spirit of FOAD!

Cant wait to hear the plans.

Oh and Xy will be registering Bear, he is my Dual partner, so he is FOAD

Giggles in delight....oh I really can't wait for this. it is going to be SOOOO much fun

Yeah i know xypher, he's ex-boom and NMS too. No probs there.

we are a good match me and him, 1st real dual stint with him, i joined up at Boom, but really it was over by then, and i always felt like an intruder. Cant wait for this time, he is a Blade, he just needs an edge, and motivation, two things i do well

Btw KK,

These guides, are they going to be for anyone who wants them?

yes all my guides are public domain and free to use and distribute (or disagree with lol).

Just don't go passing them off as your own

Haha...I have sat through too many anti-plagiarism lectures to do that.

I'll reference you in tiny font right at the very bottom...but it will be there

As a watermark

lol most of the info is available on the forums around the world if you can look I just condense it and add my own anecdotes as well.

Awesomeness...its always nice when other people have done the work for you and you just edit it

not ALL the work thank you, I like to think I have some insights of my own

Seriously though the newby stuff is pretty much standard the whole world over and the very advanced stuff is more a starting point for debate and can be modified to fit players own styles and thoughts about the game. I don't claim to be the alpha and omega of trav knowledge

I know But if you are compiling it...then until I find something I like more...you are the guru...

They are invaluable at times for nOOb's and vet's. i like the philosophy side, just was shit at the maths.
I remember some of the guides you did, they were good.

But i would also like to think we can break the mould too, and make us throw out some guide's because we countered them

Evolution as well as revolution!

that's the plan

I had some long talks at night with guys on team accounts at the VERY top of the game and up there the theory is to the bone stuff. we'll be trying out things that haven't yet been pulled even on .de or .rus

right off to bed with me catch you all laters.

don't forget more news tomorrow especially for the returning veterans. The game is on.

They guys and KK....

got your message on the email about the s3 game.

due to work and family i will have to pass up. ( have a 5 week old)
