The Coles Report 28/12/2012~The Report has been taking a short break since there has been very little to report on lately, but due to constant prodding by the fan-bass we have decided to put out another issue while we wait for more action packed updates to develop. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Gallows Hill vs. The MM Tribe news, Gallows still does not have a leg to stand on. The Chief and his braves are currently scouring the map in order to hunt down all of the refugees that were ever involved with the ex mega-village. Many people see this as a very lame tactic but it appears to be driven by the Chief and Staxjax's ongoing rivalry.The first found was JaXon himself along with the lovable Mushibag.viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3245#p35359jwhitehorn wrote:Merry Christmas Fine Squatters of Salem!
The day began when Chief PeePooKaKa went down to Boston to take KillerTomas to sit on Santa's Lap. The Chief was skeptical about this new tradition that came to his lands but Tomas insisted that they go. The Chief pondered what Tomas would ask for. A brave essentially has an unlimited supply of every material object in the game so what is it that Tomas wanted so badly that they make the long trip to Boston?
"Ho Ho Ho. And what would YOU like for X-mas little Brave" Exclaimed Santa.
"Well Santa, my good friend Chief PeePooKaKa is never home in our Tribal Lands anymore. I love to spar with my friends but lately all they ever do is search for the evil StaxHax and the Gallows Refugees" Said Tomas.
The Chief immediately became interested to see where this was going.
"Well you know little Brave. That doesn't mean that the other Braves don't love you just because they havn't sparred with you. That just means that they have work to do to keep you and Mommy Mereni safe" replied Santa
"Well, I know that Santa. But if there is ANY way you could actually help the Chief find Stax for Christmas I Would really appreciate it" Tomas concluded.
The Chief and Tomas then rode back to the Tribal lands. Nothing more was said about the trip but the Chief was once again proud of Tomas' sincerity. The entire morning quickly drifted from the Chief's mind.... Until a deer approached him with a shiny red nose. The Chief quickly followed it until he stumbled upon....

WHATS THIS?!?!?!? Could it be? A Christmas Miracle? The Tribe immediately began doing what the Tribe does.

But then it was realized that there was another claim next door! Mushibag 3.0 who was sworn to be "hermitting" since the Gallows debacle of 2012 was literally 15 feet away from StaxHax! In fact several GH Refugees were all found in the immediate area! An ambush was quickly set up.

And after a long long wait Mushibag finally logged on.

And so. A morning that started out with skepticism ended with disbelief. A true Christmas miracle for all involved. Well.... Maybe not all.

~The Chief has since put together a "peace treaty" for people to sign. The Treaty is an agreement that allows you to pay a monthly fee of half of your claim's total number to the tribe in silver (or items) in order to be safe from their raids for the entire month. Many people have taken him up on this offer and even yours truely has decided to throw some silver their way in order to avoid the inevitable naked raiders coming up over the horizon. Though this feels like a total ***** move, we here at the report feel that it is best to be safe in where we are currently situated rather than having to take time yet again to rebuild peasfooly in another location. This would only take time and quality away from these reports!viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3163#p34235

~Blame PmP, a refugee camp that was taken over by the GH members has been completely lost due to the Chief and will never again see the light of day.With the Gallows Refugees once again on their Trail of Tears the MM Tribe felt it was time we wrapped up their loose ends for them.

R.I.P. Blame PMP. You had a good run. All 32 hours of it.

~Gablak, the old owner of Blame PmP (Rattlesnake Cove (?)) returned to his old village in order to give the members a proper burial. JESUS-STYLE Y'ALL!I revisited the place and gave everyone a christian burial as they were all spread across town and fields..

Then I blocked the entrance to the crypt with a heavy rock so they will never walk among us again.

I would like to personally apologise to the old residents of this village. The fighting was very fun and had I known that things would end this way I would not have hit the murder key. We will have excellent spars in Salem heaven :'(
RIPNEVR4GETCRYEVERYTIEMThe cries of Reverend Coles could be heard throughout Plymouth the night of the murders, long after the others Salemites had logged out so as not to be known as a total puss."WHY?! WHY DID I TAKE THEIR LIVES?! WHY WAS IT SO EASY!?"He may never know why it was so easy, but the loss is and will always be unforgettable.
