Popular Post Valkorion Baratheon Posted November 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2019 November 4th, 2014: After the War of Purple Aggression, The Atlas Confederacy rebranded itself as the alliance we all know and love today, Rose. As Vack put it, “The smell of Roses filled the air, and all that could be heard were joyous cheers to the backdrop of the glorious sound of Seal, piercing our hearts with his majestic singing voice.” Anyways, I wasn’t in Rose or even playing P&W at this time. I joined the game shortly after Papers Please. I think this was during Rose’s weeb Shogunate days. As much as I love sudoku, I didn’t join Rose when I created my nation. In fact, it was more than two years later that I finally joined up with my flowery friends (April of this year) However, during my first two years of P&W, I do remember taking a keen interest in Rose. As I read about the history of P&W, I saw that Rose seemed to be involved in most, if not all major affairs. It seemed that many influential players and leaders of other alliances were born in Rose. Why is this alliance so omnipresent? Hm, this had to be hax. My suspicions were later confirmed when all other alliances got deleted and we were all in Rose. After meeting Abbas, I believe it was his demon sorcerer powers that made this happen. #BanAbbas2k19 Fast Forward to April 2019. I was enjoying my retirement from P&W when Abbas slid into my DMs and told me to join Rose. “Play P&W? Yeah, right. Not gonna happen again.” As usual, Abbas won and, well, here I am. As the Head of Milcom position was vacant, I was quickly appointed to that position and set out to prepare Rose for any potential conflicts. During this period of peace, I spent a lot of time DMing Rose members to remind them to hit our MMR and WC standards. It was through these DMs that I got to have conversations with our members on a more personal level. I really got to know my fellow Rosians and connect with them. I was the newcomer, but Rose was soon becoming my home. When it was time to go to war, I often woke up to literally hundreds of DMs from Rose members and gave out instructions on what to do. Because of the immense game lag at that time, I pretty much had to give up on managing my own wars so that I could better serve the alliance as a whole. As we all know that this has been a loooooong war, we actually reached the end of the previous leader’s term. Rose being democratic, it was time for elections. With a platform built on increased transparency, revitalization of all governmental departments, and a return to greater emphasis on community development, I was elected as Rose’s new Emperor. As Prefontaine and others have said, I believe in the Rose that is “a community with an alliance attached.” It’s insane how time flies; I can’t believe that I’ve already been a Rosian for seven months, and leader for almost two. Rose may be an old alliance at five years of age, but it’ll never die. It’s been an amazing ride so far and we aren’t even close to the best part. I am proud to be the leader of such an awesome group of people. For Rose! 26 1 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
