The Imperium in for Days of Glory Mika
Shocked players as a result of The Imperium changing his name into The Regulators. A name change turning out to be a dare from Strider towards SnipesX who turned out to have the courage for changing the crew name into The Regulators. But while the players expected the name to be changed back to its old one they were surprised when the crew changed its name into Glory.

I caught up with Glory crew boss Strider and asked him some questions regarding the name change his crew had undergone. “Glory were a truly glorious crew last reset. Founded by Tony TP Bianchi and Silky Johnson - they became the super power of Bootleggers towards the end of the reset. As you know, TI merged with them last round. With the return of many "Old Skool" Regulators from Glory - it only seemed appropriate to change the name.” he told me. The name change had been discussed with the previous Glory bosses and they approved the change.

The decision to change the name was made by the bosses and the directorate,
“It was made by first asking Tony Bianchi for the go-ahead. I then discussed it with members of the Directorate and we decided it was a good idea.” Strider told me. By changing the name the image of the crew has slightly changed too. Of course there is a new name and new crew-pictures.

Yet the command of the crew will remain in the same hands. “Tony Bianchi has been given a place on the Directorate. If it comes down to them being active again - the former Directorate shall receive a position too. according to Strider. He kindly explained the meaning and position of the directorate within the crew: “By Directorate I mean it's a group of people that lead the Crew - the Bosses simply have the ability to over-rule if they so wish. However, our Directorate is of such caliber that I strongly doubt we'd ever had to re-make a decision made by them.”

Still, the identity change isn't that big since there are hardly any changes. The crew will remain as it is. Or as Strider said: "Same crew. Same style. Same attitude. Simply more bad-ass.”
