Alpha Hall of Fame

[Ice Pick]

Astro Empires Alpha Server has been up and running since early 2006. Over the years thousands of players have come and gone. Many for just a short time, others for years. A select few of those players made Alpha what it is today. They started and led guilds, they shaped the Diplomacy of the server, they were loved or feared by friends or enemies. The unwritten rules of Alpha were made by them. They deserve a place where those that played with them can remember them and those that are playing now can learn about them. This is that place. The Alpha Hall of Fame.

The original Hall of Fame was started in June 2007, and was remade in 2010. Those threads can be found here and here.

Since the only way for me to take over as author of the other thread would be to delete his RDR's posts before mine, I opted to instead create a new thread to carry on and preserve his works instead.

The rules of the Hall are simple. Anyone can nominate someone for the Hall by simply posting his or her name here in this thread. The player is discussed by the community and when a general consensus is reached that player is added. Keep in mind that not just anyone can be entered into the Hall of Fame. Remember this is for the best of the best. Once a player is turned down please do not recommend him/her again.

Those that have been entered (including year and a small history from those of us who remember them)

• [IMP]Vladimir - Leader of the mighty Imperium [IMP] , [IMPII] , [IMPIII] arguably the most important guilds in AE history. Once over 600 members. The guild survives today as NPO. You can find old IMP members in almost every top 15 guild today.

He was also instrumental in being a voice of reason in this crazy, mixed up server.
• [MAY] Lilith; Leader and founder of Mateys Aboard YARR. Led them to upper tier status while even on a seemingly never ending Guild tour through all of the to guilds.

2019

• [=A=] Bodom aka Johan - founder and GM of =A=. Raised =A= out of the ashes of CoRM and held the guild together during the best and worst of its times. Saved Schrödinger from botching up =A=s crash on 42AO, with near 1 to 1 numbers in a 1v1 war. Like many great GMs, he built a levi stack just to recycle all of his guilds inactos and cheat his way up the XP ranks, having lost his levis he resorted to getting himself ZFed over and over, just to keep himself up the rankings. His hair is longer, lusher and blonder than your wife's.

[Bruskie]

Players will be removed as they return to full time playing if they previously retired and placed back in the hall when they quit again in future.

[Bionic redhead]

I came to nominate RDR if he hadn't already. Glad you beat me to it.

[Flinx]

Not that everybody doesn't know, but could you please put RDR's guild in front of his name? Thanks

Unless having the most pointless defenses is reason enough

[Halo]

It's okay, after getting VoN they got Lady Aurora and Karoma back into BORG. What a surprise all three were 41(2) days inactive and all back in on the same day....

[Themis]

Thank the lord for text messages/phone calls. That is what you meant, right?

[KenJI]

When you were on one side you should strive not to criticize it once you left it.
It shows respect to those you played the game together once.

[Wang The Man]

That would show a degree of class and grace, things that are sadly missing with most ppl who play this game.

I criticize both sides.

I understand exactly why you (we at first) zerged up and attempted a crash, however a 3-fold jump is bad for any crash. You simply wanted 13th to leave you guys alone and in peace.

I also understand exactly why 13th forced you guys out of A09, and why they have been pressuring you guys to split up for once. For the past 3 years (excluding the past year where A02 has housed both sides) A09 has been your homeland and nobody is stupid enough to try and attempt a blob crash against any of the guilds that were there because of the opportunity it would provide to the others.

[Inigo Montoya]

So all the AzTEC/Nid players should be ashamed of themselves for criticizing the 13th?

The supa-secret pact man. Also since he became active I guess a vote is moot.
