Sempre Famiglia Easy Targets? MikaVerLeth

NEVER SF finally sold their crew spot this week. A topic made by Cain12 could be seen in the Game Forum. In the topic he asked for opinions on buying a crew spot. The sport turned out to be that of NEVER SF. As most players said; Cain just had to buy the spot and bring back Absolute Zero although Sempre Famiglia might be angry with them if he did.

Many will know Absolute Zero as the crew is known for their 'lack' of seriousness. They believe in making fun in the game as it is a game and it is meant to be played. The members make the crew and they want their members to have a good time. Not surprisingly there weren't many players that spoke negative about a possible Absolute Zero comeback. Of course there were predictions that Sempre Famiglia would make an attempt when Cain would buy the crew.

It was decided that Absolute Zero would return. Cain bought the spot and changed the name and color. Sadly, it ended not so long after that. Sempre Famiglia had asked the Illinois State Don KeeperOfSouls to assist with the takeover of Absolute Zero. The State Don agreed and started shooting till the crew dropped to an insider. Through the insider Sempre Famiglia managed to regain control of the crew spot.

After the takeover, Absolute Zero crew boss pelli made a forum statement. “It was simply a textbook back stab, my recruiter and council saw temptation and opportunity and took it,” he explained in the topic. Adding: “Talked to a State Don and bam it's over then they go and blame an old old friend of mine.” Yet, he also congratulated Sempre Famiglia on returning and KeeperOfSouls because he had the guts to shoot.

KeeperOfSouls himself kindly explained why he had shot: “The main reason was because of a special member. She means a lot to me,” he said. “Other reasons would be, deciding to shoot the State Dons. Thought I'd continue with AZ.” Another reason for him to shoot was because of the offer he'd received from Sempre Famiglia if he'd be willing to shoot. “They offered me points,” KeeperOfSouls told me. “Have been told of 2,000 but not sure yet.” As for the resources “I used about 200k. Give or take 20k,” he said.

With Sempre Famiglia back it was only a matter of time before their name would actually show up on the statistics again. Many were surprised when the name was changed into Easy Targets. Now, this is the only question left. Cosmick was willing to explain the name change. “I changed the name to Easy Targets as I think the BL community thinks we are,” he said. “They seem to want us to die and lose the crew spot every week but we have a loyal group of members (family) with which we like to play.”

He ended: “We seem to get the things back but we still get the blame for everything on BL.” As for remaining on the statistics Cosmick was very clear: “We will stay on the stats but the name will stay as it is, Easy Targets.”
