The Order Returns JustDrew
It’s always nice to see the return of a familiar crew but the newest addition gave many players a nice surprise. The Order, a crew with roots dating back around 3 rounds ago to the days of TomStrong, has returned to the Stats Page. The crew has been brought back by Soulmate, a longtime member and also an owner during the last year of the previous round of Bootleggers. So how did this happen you ask?

After speaking with Soulmate, I learned that “Since the round started people have asked if I was going to bring it back,” to which he sent them a reply stating “I was semi-retired and hadn’t given it any thought.” After 9 months, it appears the idea of The Order making a return was planned with very short notice. With TheFlyingMonkey advertising The Monarchy crew spot for sale in the classifieds, it appeared that the return was very possible. “Seeing that thread being bumped for 48 hours is what prompted me to contact him and make the arrangements,” I was told by Soulmate.

Soulmate advised me that “The resurrection was a spur of the moment thing when I decided to try,” and after contacting former Underboss RulesOfPrey and their friend Lestat, “We made it happen in about 30 mins yesterday.” It also appears that the spot was bought at a very reasonable price of “Tequilla and 2 tickets to mexico,” according to Daisy A.K.A. SlipperyWhenWet, the crew Boss of The Monarchy.

So with the purchase of this crew spot, many are still left curious about the association between The Order and Sempre Famiglia. Soulmate was kind enough to answer this stating “When I returned after the reset, I ended up in SF,” and added “There is a lot of old TO blood associated with SF, so it seemed a good fit.” Superkinky, the boss of Sempre Famiglia also commented, adding "I was in the order last reset as was diesel so its one big family."

Here at the Bootleggers Buzz we would like to welcome The Order back. Congratulations on your new crew spot!
