Welcome The Clenched Fist! Sinapsis

"United we stand, we stand to Unite!"

Such is the motto of the semi-famous crew known by most from last reset. In this article I would just like to take a few precious minutes of your time, and explain the brief history of The Clenched Fist.

It all started as a dream among a small OC team of 4, which soon became a reality. Originally founded on the 11th of November 2004 it soon started to grow into something later to be known for it's loyal members and dedication to peace. As most members would tell you major friendships were started in the crew. Friendships that remain to this very day. And not only online ones, but ones in the life outside the game itself as well.

Just like all the other crews, The Clenched Fist experienced it's share of casualties of war, when in 2005 a war with The Family was started. The Family, led by Octavian at the time, managed to take down TCFs sub crew - Vertigo Heaven, ran my none other then LordKingpin. After nearly two weeks, the war was over and both sides agreed on a settlement.

In 2006 the crew was finally put under the question mark when inactivity and irresponsibility of the members started to tear the crew apart. The owners of the crew (wyw and BuH) then decided that it was time to put The Clenched Fist to rest. And so, after two year the crew vanished from the stats page, selling their spot to The Brotherhood.

28th of November, just little over a year later the crew is again out of retirement and back to reclaim its former glory. By buying their spot from Furuset, they are in a difficult positions of having to start from the bottom of the stats page. I went to one of the owners of the crew last reset and asked her why she had decided to bring the crew back, and lift it from its early retirement. Wyw stated that she is still not sure whether to keep the crew, or just have a small reunion of old members and of course, old friends.

I, just like many, would like to see The Clenched Fist make another attempts in succeeding on their mission. So to finish, I would just like to say: "Everyone, give a big hello to Bootleggers newest crew, The Clenched Fist"
