Syndicate Cut Short. Refugee
"You have been kicked from your crew!"

That is the message that was yet again received by the members of Winter Hill Gang. But why? Who did it? What is going on?

RLYEAMN, BloodCroW and redsox46360v2 were dead, and the crew was in the hands of Punx. With havoc raging among the members themselves, everyone was desperate to find the Witness Statements for the dead account.

What they found, was not to their satisfaction. The crew was once again hit by The Syndicate. The person behind the shootings, Catcher aka Goosy. When asking for the reasons and comments, the only reply from them that I have received was "The Syndicate does not exist."

But what followed after the shootings has proven itself a complete shock. All of the Syndicate's hard work, buying bullets and shooting has turned out to be in vain, since the recognition for the attack was taken by The Finishing Touch and The Black Out. But how?

SeanJohn approached Goosy saying he is interested in buying the crew. And before Goosy knew what hit him, Punx changed his mind and took off his Syndicate pictures and the crew was in possession of SeanJohn. Goosy, along side The Syndicate were left empty handed.

Now I know a lot if not all of you may say that you have read a different version of events in the previous article, so let me take a few minutes to explain.

Mika did in fact write a good article, unfortunately it was full of incorrect and misleading information about the actual events. It was in fact the fault of the TBO boss and underboss of TFT. Like most council members of new, upcoming crews they saw the change to gain some reputation for their two crews and to gain some sort of respect from other crews. When Mika approached the taken over crew, it was already in the hands of TBO/TFT so it is safe to say that he had missed the Syndicate's part in the whole deal.

TBO/TFT did infact tell him the story, but not the whole story. They left out the part that Syndicate shot and killed for the crew and simply said that they did it. By doing so they gained new temporary glory and gained a new mortal enemy, The Syndicate.

So what now? Does a writer really need to make the person they're asking questions take an oath?
