Race to Domination Frick
With the new maximum of thirty crewspots, the fight for an old crew to receive a spot isn't as vigorous as last round. Though, many crews are reappearing, even those we never thought we would see again. However, due to an overwhelming amount of crews getting welcomed to the statistics, we will feature an interview with five different crews in this article. These crews are: High Society, Event Horizon, Ombra Di Lucifer, Strictly Business, and The Invisibles.

High Society


"It felt fantastic, especially since we were one of nine crews to grab a train station," is what Kaizern, one of four bosses of crew High Society, said about getting his crew to the statistics. He later added, "It was also somewhat of an achievment to be the fourth crew to get a spot." Next, we asked Kaizern what the plans for the crew were. He said, "Firstly, to gain a standing in the community, then after that, the future holds a lot. We are more than aware that it takes more than just sticking yourselves on the stats page to proove you deserve that spot, and we intend to do prove we earned it, we will get that respect."

To conclude the interview, the Buzz asked Kaizern to describe his crew. He said, "We are a crew learning its way, developing each day. We are friendly, and approachable, but we shouldn't be underestimated as weak. This round is intended to be about respect, and we hope to earn and show it."

Event Horizon


Event Horizon were the fifth crew to reach the statistics this reset. The Buzz contacted BettyB, the boss, but she was unavailable to comment, so she directed us to WoofSnark, a trusted EH council member. To start off, the Buzz ask WoofSnark how it felt to have Event Horizon on the statistics so early. He said, "It felt great to see a lot of our crew members put in a joint effort to gather the funds needed to get the crew back to the stats."

To follow, the Buzz asked WoofSnarks what Event Horizons plans for the future were. He said, "Firstly, we want to plant our roots on the statistics firmly. We are looking to expand the crew in the near future, so we have room for our other members to join. Secondly, we want to make sure EH becomes a tight knit family, were family comes first, and all members feel this is important."

Lastly, the Buzz asked WoofSnark to describe Event Horizon for new or returning players. He said, "Our crew has a base of people that know each other from way back. With time passing, friends of these people have become members, and their friends became members. This group has become a family, who always joke around and have fun with each other. It's a mix of people who like to rank fast, shoot, gain wealth and forum whores."

Strictly Busniess


The Buzz contacted Saint, the boss of Strictly Business. To begin our interview with him, we asked him how it felt to get his crew on the statistics so quickly. He said, "We feel great that we made it on the statistics so soon after the reset, all the crews worked hard to rank up to get a spot, as well." Furthermore, the Buzz asked Saint what the plans for the future were. He said, "At the moment, we want to rank and enlarge the crew spot, maybe getting a bullet factory."

And, lastly, the Buzz asked Saint to describe the crew for us. He said, "Crew life is like having a large family, all the members helping you. It has its own forum were you can post almost anything. Members help you OC, and help you with missions."

The Invisibles


The Buzz got in touch with Himmel, one of the two high bosses of The Invisibles, and asked him three questions. First of all, the Buzz asked Himmel how he felt to get a crew of his onto the statistics so early in the round. He said, "We weren't looking to join the stats so quickly, a member gave us the spot as a gift, and didn't realize we were waiting on purpose. But, it feels good to be back, many of our members have been working non-stop to get to Boss, and consequently we probably have the highest rank average of any crew in the game"

Secondly, the Buzz asked Himmel what his plans for the crew were. He said, "TI is planning to stay relatively peaceful this time around, we had our fun, now it's time to sit back and play some Keno! However we are ready and willing to shoot should the need arise, I've already added most members of a certain Crew to my personal kill list for their poor manners in the forums." Additionally, there was a lot of controversial arguements between The Invisibles, Event Horizon, Strictly Business, The Vanguard, and Eternal Labyrinth last round, so the Buzz asked Himmel if the argument had cooled over. He said, "With SB and EH yes, we've all decided to wipe the slate clean and start fresh, which I'm excited about. I haven't heard anything from EL, though I believe we picked up the Bullet Factory they dropped when they didn't have the production costs, so who knows? Still no word from TV, either."

And, lastly, the Buzz asked him if he could describe the crew. He said, "I'm not saying anything. Anyone who is intrigued can come and see for themselves!" This concluded our interview.

This surely is a race for all crews to become dominate, finding one that will rule over all others. In the coming months, we will see who perseveres, and becomes the number one crew. The Buzz would like to thank all those who we interviewed, and to thank Aldarion, who helped in the interviewing process.
