This week we witnessed a shooting of 12 players. The killer of these accounts was Veso, which had a picture of Death Valley on his profile. He was able to kill various crewless players, however some of them were in a crew, such as Stow_ETS. According to the profile of Veso, approximately 300,000 bullets were removed from the game and approximately $100,000,000. Of course, Veso had to use some bullets as well, which means mainly his own bullets were removed. The Buzz was not able to talk with Veso, because he already died once we found out his name. A pity, because his name was mentioned a few days later in the next shooting; the wipe of Sapientia.
According to our witnesses Sapientia got wiped by one shooter; HustleSnow. During his shooting he did not only kill the Boss+ accounts, but also the lower accounts. An impressive attack, because in less than 15 minutes all accounts of Sapientia were buried on the Graveyard. Fortunately HustleSnow was so kind to talk with us and share some information about his impressive attack. According to HustleSnow approximately 450,000 bullets were used. A fancy amount, but we at the Buzz were extremely interested why Sapientia got wiped and not a different crew. HustleSnow stated: ‘‘I wiped the crew because our good buddy Scan organized a mini spree a few days ago that targeted one of our shooters. A decision was made then to have the crew wiped in order to demonstrate that we mean business. Because of Scan's prior relationship with many Sapientia members that crew was targeted in particular’’. Scan (Scandalous) is the boss of Death Valley and the ‘mini spree’ was probably the wipe which was performed by Veso. An interesting reason, because what is exactly the link between Sapientia and Death Valley. It is a fact that a lot of old members of Death Valley were in the crew spot of Sapientia, however that does not mean it is the same crew. It was time for the Buzz to have a word with the leader of Sapientia; Chelss.
We asked Chelss if she knew why her crew got wiped. She stated: ‘‘We were shot in an attempt to get back at Scandalous and Death Valley for an account that got shot a few days ago’’. According to Chells, Veso apparently shot an account which was related to HustleSnow. Interesting, now let’s look back again. A few days ago Veso shot a few accounts in the name of Death Valley. He probably killed someone who was related to HustleSnow. HustleSnow believes Sapientia is strongly linked to Death Valley and decides to shoot Sapientia. Very interesting, but the Buzz was still interested in the crew of HustleSnow. According to HustleSnow actions speak louder than words and we have to wait in order to see the next move of his crew. Now we were even more interested in what kind of crew he is part of. We returned to Chelss to ask if she had any idea which crew was behind the wipe of her crew. She indeed had an idea which crew was behind the attack, however she did not want to share this with us. A pity, so we had a look at the Game Forum. We witnessed a topic of the wipe regarding Sapientia. We discovered something pretty interesting.
The topic ‘Sapientia wipe’ was a common RIP-topic until some sort of discussion started. The boss of Enemy of The State, Stow, posted ‘RIP DV’. His post resulted in a discussion that Sapientia is not Death Valley, but a totally different crew. Stow posted the following statement: ‘‘Then the shooter made a mistake or maybe it was the best way to get back at Scan whilst still showing some form of dominance? Maybe it was just for lulz? Maybe they did it coz they can? Who knows? I guess we'll never know unless we contact the person responsible. One thing is for sure, Scan is great’’. The last sentence was ended with a wink emoticon, which means the boss of Enemy of The State knows probably more than we think. HustleSnow created the crew spot ‘All hail Scan’ as pure sarcasm and Stow showed us the same sarcasm. It was time to have a talk with Enemy of The State. As Stow was not online we decided to contact Wridge, co-boss of Enemy of The State. Unfortunately he never replied at our message. Finally we also contacted the council of Enemy of The State but we did not have any luck either. A pity, because we were definitely interested in their role of the crew wipe of Sapientia.
We figured out who performed the shooting and we know the reasons. The only thing we do not know is which crew was behind the attack. Was it Enemy of The State, because Veso killed Stow? Was it another crew who hates Death Valley? It seems that in both cases, someone killed the wrong person/crew. In case the Buzz finds out, we will enlighten you in the next issue of the Bootleggers Buzz!
