The Mobster News

Round 154 has to be one of the most exciting rounds I have seen in my relativly short carear as a mobster. Many exciting things happened including the return of the infamous, The_Book_Keeper. The round also featured the return of another mobster, and fellow CS member known to me only as “The Bouncer”. Although I’ve heard many rumors as to his true identity, since it was never confirmed I won’t speculate anything and instead refer to him only as “The Bouncer” for this recap.

The round also featured a highly contested killer rank. After TheSlayer jumped out to an early lead, Wolfy came charging hard and from that point it was on between the two of them. Besides the turns they used for killing, each of them dropped thousands and thousands of turns to 00 each other throughout most of the round. Wolfy’s killing spree got him into a little bit of trouble because it included attacks on a mobster that was flying the TCF icon and as we all know, Wolfy is the don of TCF. This led to Wolfy leaving TCF for the rest of the round, and his kill total was slightly reduced. More on the killer ranks to follow.

Now on to the star of the show, Volty. Apparantly TCF had their sights set on the supporter medals early in the round. I believe Volty based on some messages I recieved had intended to only take the bronze supporter as well as the bronze killer medal but then a certain someone showed up. The_Book_Keeper entered the round on Monday and proceeded to build to over 2 million ops and over 2 million du’s. After that he collected fairly high, he banked and then bought AK’s. Almost at the exact same time, The_Bouncer built to about 700k ops and over 3 million du’s. Volty apparantly felt threatened by it and proceeded to build several million du’s/ops and 00 The_Bouncer. The_Bouncer built again and proceeded to attack Volty again but Volty only built up even higher to around 9 million ops/du’s and finished off Bouncer. Meanwhile back at the ranch, TBK probably figured he was next on the list and unbanked so that he would be out of Volty’s range. A classic verteran moove. By that time, Volty had pretty much lost it and made a moove that I thought was a mistake. He proceeded to build up to about 25 million ops and 15 million du’s and collected to about 125 trillion before banking and buying Ak’s. In total Volty spent 4 million turns. Now spending 4 million turns to win $1270 doesn’t seem logical but then again, most of the big supporters say they don’t care about the money anyway. The thing which makes it such a noob moove in my eyes is that he more or less emptied his account with more than a day left in the round so if someone had decided to step up to the plate and challange him, he would of had to purchase more turns just to hold whomever it was off. As much as I wanted to see someone from CS challange him, it didn’t happen and thus Volty walked away with his second gold supporter medal in as many rounds and the jackpot of $1270. Personally, if I had that many turns, I would have waited for the last few minutes of the round before making my mooves. Volty, TBK and Bouncer weren’t the only members that built big this round, The_Barista aka Sawyer also built to over 2 million du’s and ops and Hole_Punch flying with Volty’s TCF’s side family Domination added several hundred thousand turns. All of this made for what could have been a really exciting ending as for the first time in quite awhile you had several of the biggest supporters in the game from several different famalies all dropping turns in the same round but that wasn’t the case. In fact Bookie logged off about 20 minutes before the round was over and as far as I’m aware hasn’t been seen since.

So on with the ranks. They were a little more spread out between famalies this round then they have been recently. Of cours Volty’s $125,188,158,633,738 net went unchallanged and he easily took gold. It should also be noted that this makes 2 gold’s in a row now for Volty. The Book Keeper made his return by taking silver, again unchallanged. The Barista aka Sawyer took bronze. Hole Punch who was with TCF/Domination took fourth place not too far behind. After that their was a significant drop off in net but still with a strong showing of over 100 billion, Gamble who apparantly was recently booted from CS took fifth. My buddy 7SCOTS, a member of Respect and about to leave for Afghanastan took sixth. Come home safe buddy :). Ice Man who has been ranking on a cosistant basis took seventh. Prophet, Lister and The_Watcher rounded out the supporter ranks with their eight, ninth and tenth place finishes respectfully.

Tim_Tebow aka Hawky of CS took lvl 2 gold easily with a net that would have been good enough for fifth place in the supporter ranks this round. Congradulations to him on his sixth free gold medal. Second through fourth place finishes were extremely close with only about 625,000 aks seperating Gortex whom took silver while apparantly spending the round in the hospital recovering from surgery and Che who ended up with fourth. Get well soon. Narc0tiX from CS took bronze. Chill took fifth, Osva991 took sixth and Hogs_of_War who I believe was with IM took seventh. Slasher took eigth. My fellow BW member Mistress_Mafia took ninth and Foolish finished off the lvl 2 ranks.

As has been the trend in recent rounds, lvl 1 ranks were fairly strong at the top and not so much on the bottom. Someone using the name Heat who’m I believe to be the real sNEAKz from CS took a very impressive lvl 1 gold with a net of $65,957,386,231. That’s like over 17 million aks. I could only dream to have scabbing skills like that. Very very nice! Fellow CS member Novice took silver and way behind him Nightmare took bronze. Friday13th aka Thisismyname from LadyM’s family took fourth place. CrazyFlower took fifth, MCLOVIN took sixth, Fidel_Castro, despite being the president of Cuba managed to find time to scab enough for a seventh place finish. What does that say about the Cuban gov’t?? Razz who helped celebrate Punks 50th round took eigth, Lil_Friend, of course the Don of Empire took ninth and Ladys_Nympho, the name says it all finished the lvl 1 ranks.

As mentioned above, the killer ranks were competitive and the kill totals were very impressive for a normal round. TheSlayer managed to hold off the surge and wound up easily walking away with his 11th golden killer gun. It appeared Wolfy had the silver gun wrapped up until the final minutes when sNEAKz whom I believe was the real HEAT jumped in front of him by only about 10,000 kills. As mentioned Wolfy’s bid for a silver gun fell short but he still easily earned his second bronze killer gun. Vengeance whom I counted as one of only three members to finish the round with TCF took fourth. Volty, who’s kill total all came within a matter a few minutes took fifth, BW member DIRTYSOUTH took sixth. Mad_Killer took seventh, Georgios_Samaras aka WaldoMarlone took eigth, TheBouncer aka mysteryman took ninth and JTD, whom we all know took tenth.

Family ranks were to be blunt, “dominated” by Domination, whom I guess you could say was a branch family of TCF’s. Led by Volty’s enourmous lvl 3 net, Syphon earned the GF award and his first ever medal. Coffee shop whom had many, many people in the rankings finished second. Punks celebrated their 50th round in the game. To be honest I thought they had been around alot longer than that. They had high hopes in the ranks, especially Che and Adham who had their eyes set on lvl 2 medals but TCF and company crashed their party. Despite many 00’s they still managed to do very well and ranked third as a family. KILL-YOU-DEAD finished fourth, Respect, led mostly by 7Scot made a strong return with fifth, and Empire took sixth. IM took seventh,
Demarco_Hooligans took eigth, DOMINION took ninth and DaRk_Murdererz finished things off.

A few notables, Happy birthday to Honey. Her family changed their name for the celebration. I had high hopes of seeing someone finnaly knock TCF off their high horse but that didn’t happen. This round had so much action though that I actually started writting this last Monday.

I would also like to dedicate the next round to my brother David whom gave his life so that others could be saved. FDNY 8/30/77 - 9/11/01 RIP

You will Never be Forgotten!

Thanks to all the troops overseas whom are helping keep my country safe
