The Finishing Touch, touched for the last time? Altro

The Finishing Touch aka TFT who originally entered the statistics page as a crew in round four made a surprise return this week, only to be removed from the statistics a few days later. The crew was replaced by The Greek Myths.

Having only returned to the statistics earlier in the week, the attack on The Finishing Touch began mid-afternoon, Bootleggers time, on Saturday the 29th. It ended with the dropping of the cre,w and the death of OutLawzD, the crew's boss. The attacker was the current Nation Don AbuST, a member of the crew The Departed. We contacted the boss DepartedHerrings to ask about the attack. He replied saying that AbuST “had a spare 100k bullets” so shot a “random money-holder-looking accounts” and The Finishing Touch.

DepartedHerrings added, “I’m afraid there really isn’t anything interesting behind it.” When asked if there was a particular reason for picking said crew he answered, “Not really.” Were they simple in the wrong place at the wrong time? We were unable to contact AbuST asking for his reasons or any members of The Finishing Touch at the time of writing for a comment.

According to Aghabius, boss of The Greek Myths, they had nothing to do with the attack on the crew. He told us that his crew had consisted of a few friends with an MSN chat “and when the chance popped up we took it.” When quizzed about future plans for the crew he told us he plans to recruit new members and expand as much as possible, before adding, “but you never know what might happen!”

The Finishing Touch 's return to the statistics did not go as planned, lasting less than a week and ending by an unprovoked attack. Was this a simple case of wrong place, wrong time? Will we see them try to return in the future? Or was that the finishing touch? Stay tuned.
