The Black Birds Shot Down! BrickTamland
It was a Saturday evening and nothing was stirring, not even a mouse. All of a sudden, Ronariom, the Nevada State Don who had been promoted not even a day before, was shot down amidst the sound of bullets. Over the fifty-six minutes, a further seventeen accounts from The Black Birds were shot removing all their Don+ members. Later on, more accounts were shot but they were left on the Stats to recover. The culprits? Gentlemen of Fortune.

There appeared to be many different shooters all currently residing in Gentlemen of Fortune whilst they shot. Was this an act of cold-hearted fun or an act of revenge of some sort? The Buzz contacted MhmTasty to see if we could get some answers. Kindly, he steered us in the direction of KHv29, Boss of GoF. When we asked him why exactly they shot The Black Birds, he replied, "they killed a member of ours for a RLT".

It transpired that darknoob, a TBB member shot EverybodyLovesBoul for his roulette table. GoF retaliated by shooting a few members. We then asked who the shooters were and he simply told us, "our members". In an attempt to narrow this down, we also asked how many shooters there were and he replied, "the ones capable and online. A set number might be harder to guess. hehe". KHv29 further informed us, "this is a warning not to touch out members. 1 kill does not equal another. Finally we asked him how many points and or bullets were used to give them this warning and he responded, "what we could gather up from inside the crewspot. No outside shooters were used."

So, it seems an act of careless shooting resulted in a deep weakening of one whole crew, one which they must repair quickly if anyone looking to get onto the Stats wants to take advantage. This was not all. A topic created by KHv29, stating the reasons for shooting, after the majority of the shooting turned into some TBB members swearing revenge and RileyakaFreeman3 went as far as to say, "FUCKIN BASTARDS YOU GOT YOUR WAR NOW".

All may not be over it what may become a new crew war with both crews still on the stats. Whether The Black Birds will get their revenge is a question we can only know if and once they strike. Until then, all we can do is wait it out.
