Editors note MsNyxxie

Welcome to the 29th issue of the Buzz. We have come a long way and have seen the good and the bad side of Bootleggers and the players here! It`s been a busy week here on Bootleggers and the Game Forum has been filled with RIP thread after RIP thread as we say our peace to our fallen friends, crew mates, lovers and even enemies. I have to say, I haven`t seen the Game Forum like that in a while. Many love the site of a Game Forum when it`s like that as it means activity in the game, others, who despise dying, see it as an opportunity to run quick to hibernate in fear of losing their accounts. On behalf of the Buzz, Rest in Peace to all those who have fallen in the mist of crew wars and settling of disputes against enemies.

The Buzz this week has, as usual, it`s weekly articles, such as the ``Behind the Name`` and ``Bootleggers Sound Off.`` Both are, to our surprise, very popular and will continue to be as long as we have players who state their opinions and are looking to make a name for themselves usuing the ``Behind the Name.`` This will also serve as a reminder that the ``Behind the Name`` is a random choosing of three people, by MsNyxxie. Sending boot mails to MsNyxxie, will not up your chances of becoming part of the next week`s issue.

We also are discussing, of course, the events of this week. This includes the downfall of Mobb Figaz and other crews as well as the sell and purchase of EvolutioN. With only ten spots, a crew spot itself is probably the most sought after thing in this game as a spot equals power and strenghth, but how much power and strength are determined when tested. We are also discussing the new awesome ``prize`` the best of the best Freelance Articles get at the end of the week.

After the publish of this week`s Buzz, Air and I are both going to look over the loads of Buzz Applications we have gotten. We are promising to get through them all by the middle of this week and hope that we pick some great writers out of the few as we are lacking in writers.
