hi bud'
to clarify for you, in fact Ameristar was founded back in April of 2008 in another similar game, I won't use other game names as it's not polite for our game here
so, we are old times and veteran gamers, we are still active in some other games we play and still others can find or recognize us by our Ameristar name... in some games we are a federation, or a guild, or a corporation, or a trade group, or what ever virtual group the game will allow, but one thing is sure, we are not new...
here, in fact, me as the leader I took temporarily the name of the alliance, not the other way around, and I did it, for this exact purpose, so others who already know about us, to recognize us easier
if you don't know us or know of us yet, it's OK, you can't know every group of gamers lurking out there, not to mention maybe you were not even playing this type of games in 2008...
however, to answer to your dilemma, no, this is not one of those stupid alliances you had the chance to deal with
if we are new here in P&N, don't take us as new in gaming bud'... look for us in other games and you'll bump into us sooner or later with the exact same name - Ameristar
