Listening to: Dance the Night
Why??? How did the mighty CODE. alliance became a mere tomb for dead alts, cobwebs, and dusty bios?
What happened?
Super Pleb was there.
As director of NOL, he was universally despised.
Super opened the doors wide, but nobody joined.
The comments at Minerbumping are self-explanatory.
Super was always a disgrace.
So, on June 24, James 315 finally did it.
However, Super didn’t get the memo.
One day, a ghost came to visit.
Before James, John was executor of the alliance. Upon his return, he was not pleased by CODE. civil war.
As moderator of the minerbumping channel, Super was gleefully banning Aiko, and anyone who supported her.
With James gone, forever, even Super lamented the fact that nobody could do anything about Super.
The rest of the alliance was annoyed.
We wondered if Super was quite sane.
Naturally, John urged Super to calm down.
Super wanted the CODE. to be a tomb. However, corporation Big Willies PvP Madness wanted the alliance to be, well, an alliance that does something more than orbit a dead star.
With two active members in NOL, Super was threatened by the success of other ganking corps. He blamed James for this.
James had wisely allowed everyone to join another corporation, negating Super’s status as “cat’s meow” of NOL. Consequently, when Super banned people from Minerbumping, they could just join a different channel, or even a different alliance.
Which is exactly what happened.
Super embraced a helpless doom and gloom philosophy of inevitable stagnation and decay. Without James, gankers wanted new leadership, and the wound was deep. Super tried to stop the bleeding, but he only made things worse by draining blood from a desiccated corpse. Meanwhile, with every ban, Aiko grew stronger.
When he was done, there would be nobody left.
A dead alliance was better than one with Aiko.
Super repeated his mantra.
That felt good.
Super kissed the feet of his dead god.
This is the ‘leadership’ he provided.
Super wanted John to understand.
Super couldn’t accept reality, or Aiko. Clinically, he struggled to adjust his behaviour to suit various social contexts, and failed to engage in imaginative play with friends, continually falling back upon restricted repetitive patterns. Meanwhile, the death of James left a void, which would inevitably be filled.
Of course, everyone was concerned about the mails.
John encouraged Super to gank more.
Super didn’t want gankers in the ganking alliance.
A ganking alliance can’t survive without gankers!
Roleplayers aren’t real leaders.
Super was an idiot.
Without James, he had no hope for the future.
Would you join Pharaoah, in his tomb?
Super couldn’t wait!
What a goofus.
What a pleb!
For real.
Cheerzah!
That’s right!
lol
What would James say?

Aiko and Super, by Alt 00
Baby, you can find me in Highsec
Diamonds under my eyes
Turn the rhythm up, don’t you wanna just
Come along for the ride?
Oh, my outfit so tight
You can see my heartbeat tonight
I can take the heat, baby, best believe
That’s the moment I shine
Don’t give a damn
When the night’s here, I do tears
Baby, you got no chance
When your heart breaks
I could dance, watch me dance
I’ll still keep the party runnin’, not one hair out of placeLately, I’ve been moving close to the edge
Still be lookin’ my best
When the galaxy shakes
I stay on the beat, you can count on me
I ain’t missin’ no steps
I don’t play it safe (ooh)
Don’t you know about me? (Uh-huh)
Even when your tears are flowin’ like diamonds
I’ll still keep the party goin
