# Hardened Crewminals Hit Hypocrisy
# Tensions ran high last night as the Hardened Crewminals started to swarm the CPL. They quickly amassed 15 war birds and this reporter was very curious to where they were headed. I sent a message to Norma Jean one of the HC pilots asking what they were up to and got this very cryptic reply: "We're about to paint the galaxy red with the blood of innocent children." Not explaining anything all I could do was wait.

Reports came in that Fundamental Hypocrisy's planet galaxy was the intended target for the Crewminals. HC fell upon Hpyocrisy's mine field and set to work clearing a path. A FH straggler was caught on their warp planet and was quickly in a pod on his way to his race's HQ. The planet on the warp 3168 quickly fell and an accidental global message by one of the FH pilots gave away their lander. So with that Hardened Crewminals set to work clearing the mines to 3133 the Hypocrisy' lander.

Only two Fundamental Hypocrisy ships were on 3133 and HC made quick work of them and decided to head home. On their route to federal space some of the members from Armory set a trap at the Tri-Warp area. Armory pilots picked off four of the HC fleet. A lone FH pilot also managed to kill one of the straggling Crewminals that was around their warp.

The Hardened Crewminal Fleet took two of Fundamental Hypocrisy's planets and killed 3 of their ships. They lost one ship to FH and four to Armory. This move by Armory's hunters to pick off the Crewminals shows they are willing to do anything to get kills even go up against an organized fleet of war ships.

# Interview with DW!
# DW currently is the leader of the alliance State Force (as of this week). He plays under the name SickByDefinition this game and was MineClearerDeluxe last game in the alliance Second Coming. He is ranked #7 in the HoF for kills (one ahead of mar) with 496 kills, and is arguably one of the best hunters to ever play SMR. With that here is the GP?s exclusive interview of DW!

GP: Ok the basics first

GP: How long have you been playing SM/SMR?
DW: Shoot I don?t know.
DW: Ng7, ng13-ng15.
DW: Shoot probably 4 years combined.

DW: Toosie Pop and CYP (Choose Your Poison).

GP: Who is your favorite player(s)?
DW: Jerm, inferno, ares, frost, seldum, dwill, cb, onegod, and many more.
DW: All I can think of for now.
DW: But had many more.

GP: Since you the new leader of State Force how will your leadership change the alliance?
DW: Gonna turn it into a boot camp.
DW: Um, few small changes, mostly rules will be added.

GP: As an alliance leader what is your most valued trait in a member of your alliance?
DW: Experience and a positive attitude.

GP: Since you are ranked #7 for kills in the HoF would you like to share any of the tactics you used to get those kills?
DW: use mines to trap traders from fed in case u miss them at port, and make them run in the direction of your choices.
GP: Anything else?
DW: That?s more than enough ;).
DW: Lol that is a great strategy, not used by anyone.
DW: Got many of good traders that way.

GP: If you could make your own "dream team" alliance who would it contain?
DW: Ok here we go.
DW: Frost, Jerm, Ares, Cowboy, one_god, Pater, mar, sterling, inferno, DWill, thauglor, sergei, elvon, izzy, mad matt, estoy, castor troy, lebowski, SOul, Drake, shady_FA, Newbie, freakazoid, merchant, reddragon, scotty, professor-x, tah, seldum.

GP: Do you have any suggestions for improving SMR?
DW: Take out WQ weapon and change attack code back to old days.

GP: Do you have any tips for new players to the game?
DW: Join an active alliance, and listen to the alliance members on what to do, unless its Frost.

GP: If you could slap one SMR player who would it be?
DW: Sorrow.

The GP would like to thank DW for taking the time to interview with us, and we wish him luck in his new position as the leader of the alliance State Force, along with everyone else in his alliance.

# Where is the Creonti Particle Canon?
# One question has been on every Creontians mind, for the past four weeks. Where is the Creonti Particle Canon? After a trip to the Creonti Head Quarters and a three hour tour of their diminutive Grand Gardens I finally had the chance to talk to a representative from the Creonti Weapons Clan.

Zames Neveria: Crealix Patar Codehead, wow what a mouth full. Would it be ok if I called you Cre instead?

Crealix Patar Codehead: Yes.

ZM: OK Cre what has happened to the Creonti Particle Canon.

Cre: That's classified. How do you like our gardens?

ZM: Um, they're nice.

Cre: Have you taken the tour?

ZM: Yes I have. I was told it was required to see The Grand Gardens as a requirement to speak with you.

Cre: Yes, Well my shift has just ended. However if you wish to speak with my replacement. Then I suggest you get started on your tour of The Grand Gardens. Have a good day.

After being "escorted" along the second three hour tour of the Grand Gardens I discovered. That a Creontians work shift is 3.25 hours long.

2 Days Later: Bar somewhere in Omar:

ZM: Mr. X. What has happened to the Creonti Particle Canon?

Mr. X: It seems that there was some massive clerical error in the Accounting Clan. Some official named Creintox Tatter Cashhead forgot to enter a Doc AIA 502, and a AIA 503 and the funds required for the CPC had been transferred to the Federal Newbie Merchant Vessel Scanner Fund.

ZM: The N.M.V.S.F? You know what that's actually kinda funny.

Mr. X: Yeah it is. So how did you like those gardens?

# Armory Pods Top Traders!
# In the past few days it seems Armory has been targeting the games top traders, who have been paying for their success with pod rides back to their respective Feds. The alliance Armory has become infamous for its merciless hunting of the racial galaxies, already racking up 163 kills, over a hundred more than the runner up Porkers (61 kills). For now, however, it seems that Armory?s indiscriminate, wanton killing has shifted to a more systematic approach, with their focus on a select group of traders with high experience.

So far Armory has been deadly proficient in eliminating the games highest experience traders. Uncle Walter was the first trader to go, falling to Assault Rifles guns. Later, Assault Rifle destroyed Jack Rattenbury right before AK-74 annihilated Ranchero Joe twice in the same night. With those 3 traders out of the way only three more traders stand in the way of Armory completely dominating the top ten spots in experience. These traders face the daunting task of evading tireless Armory hunters. Some would call their challenge hopeless, and this reporter would agree that it is only a matter of time before these three traders succumb to the ceaseless vigilance of the Armory hunters.
