The TGRAD Way!

The days following BRUCE…

After the end of BRUCE, we recouped a bit.  We split operations a bit… Our pvp’rs were in Syndicate since there were always fights to be had there. Those who needed to replenish their wallets, did so in empire.  During this time, we thought about our options.  We could join an existing alliance, or we could start are own alliance.  A few alliances contacted us, so we gathered information and presented it to our members to see where their thoughts were.

In fountain, we had almost 600 members in corp.  It was hard to find a time of day with less then 60 people in corp chat, and many times is was 80+.  Our peak times on weekends we frequently saw 100-110+.  Corp chat had more people then most alliances have in alliance chat.

As the fall of BRUCE happened, many people started to leave.  And leave they did.  By the time we joined our next alliance, we were down to 250 or so members in corp.  I like to think of these guys as all die hard Tgradians.  Their love for the corp is above all else.  Almost all of them are still with us today. 

Just before we left Fountain, Manas decided he needed to take a break from game due to his baby and possible move.  He transferred CEO to myself, to carry on our mission.  The transition was pretty easy as I had already been doing most of the corp duties, while Manas handled recruiting.  He has not yet returned to the game.

The time is now middle of July 2008, and we have joined a new alliance!!
