HOLY CRAP!
This is about the fall of UCN, the rise of pre-Midknight Riders Clans we started...written by me of course, when I was about....23 years old or so?
At most I was 25. Still full of life and angst.

I have a "CD-ROM" with a ton of EARTH 2025 history on it...

Damn...I have no idea how or why I found this.

I think the rest of the story goes like this...

Empyrean and Bluedawg spend a set or two in Paradigm. Empy joins the ArchAngels fighting team. Bluedawg, nets the highest net he's ever netted.

Two sets later, BD and Empy start Midknight Riders. Many friends from all over join us, and we build up to over 40 members. Two sets of peace or so, I can't remember. Then all out war with RD, Elysium, LCN, LaF, and many others just stomping us.

We move to teams.

Empy get's tired. Leaves his people in charge. Leave's game in 2012ish.

Comes back in 2021 to find no one anywhere. Leaves.

Comes back in 2023. Joins paradigm on alliance, with the best damn group of crazies he ever met.
Joins LIGHTS on team. Grabs SOL by accident on alliance.
Grabs and untagged country in Teams, and that country complains that he is in Empy's alliance, yet he has no tag.....so Empy gives him the finger. and goes back to bed.

And here we are. Jan 2024.

Howd I do?

Pretty cool, love reading the old stuff

And the source of my headaches.

PPPPPP!!!! Miss youuuuuu

I remember when people cared enough about their clans to record the history as it happened set to set.

Good start to 2024 brother

im here, just busy

I love this guy.... Doug is my favorite.

Fun times they were LI.

Ya know, I gotta dig out the old "CD ROMS".

For you younglings...its where we put data. Music. Videos and such. 7.80 GB maybe....

Anyways.....I got a bunch of stuff on those....Lord knows what....but.... why not...

I think they were more like 700MB

but I did start with 5.25" floppies... ;)

Lots of memories Empyrean and lots of old names!
After UCN I think I was short time in Elysium, but select finally TIE because of Croaker (or Mrs Croaker) and JackET...

Yah know, I think we went to TIE, not PDM....

Found the CD, cant find the portable drive...lol

Digging for fossils, are we?

jfc. This thread is for old folks.
Not for me :P

We cared about our clans more than ourselves!
