Komodo Killing Spree! IAmAceAdam

Bootleggers witnessed possibly the biggest killing spree this reset late Thursday night, involving over 100 dons + being killed! There were exactly 111 killings which involved three Legendary Dons, three Respectable Dons and an incredible 105 dons! A large quantity of these accounts were crewless though a few crews did lose some members. There is speculation that a lot of underground shooters and heavy supplies were lost during these shootings and well over 2,000,000 bullets were used in the mass killing spree spread across 6 known shooters, but there could be more. There is a picture which you can find the link to at the bottom of the page showing the kills that were made.

The six known shooters accounts names are: Velasquez, DukeNukem, Equinox, Taranis, Vincinio and Meghgfs. Unfortunately, none of them wanted to speak to the Buzz regarding the shootings so it was hard to gain reliable information. All their profiles share a similarity, which is the word Komodo. It is on their profile pictures and is assumed to be a crew. As said, most of the killed accounts were crewless so it doesn’t look like a crew motivated attack, most likely a random mass spree with a list of don+ crewless accounts to aim for. Over $1,500,000,000 was taken out of the game from these attacks and over 1,700,000 bullets lost. There were some rumours and speculation on the Game Forum suggesting that The Syndicate or The Family may actually be Komodo, but there has been no sufficient evidence to prove this correct. Currently, at the time of writing this article, only one of the six shooters has been killed, which is Taranis, and another has gone on vacation, which is Meghgfs. The other four accounts are still alive and active.

Of the whole 20,000+ accounts alive in the game, there are only 156 accounts which are ranked Don or higher, a true sign of how bad Bootleggers is declining. Some users have stated in the forum that this mass spree may have killed the game of totally an it’s very unlikely it’ll ever get good again. But maybe these shootings will spur the unfortunate players who died to come back even stronger than ever and retaliate? We’ll just have to wait and see if anyone is brave enough to return their attack. However, no matter how bad something is, there is always a positive! This spree could have possibly got rid of the rankist OC’s for the time being! There’ll be a lot of scums and thugs’ asking for OC’s this weekend!

The Buzz apologises for the lack of information on any word from the shooters, but it is their choice whether they wish to disclose any information or answer questions for us and they chose not to. But hopefully this article has the necessary information for the players that missed the action!
