Another player's salute to eXS's recent activities in the MV reminded me of something I've been thinking about doing for a long time now.
Having led GTN for over a year now, I know what it's like to stick to your guns and stay with one fleet for a *LONG* time. However, no DarkSpace Fleet, past present or future, can outgun these powerful fleets I would like to pay a short tribute to...
Mercenaries of Andosia... First fleet (clan?) ever created for DarkSpace.
Gaming, Entertainment, Real Life... Second fleet ever created.
eXcellent Strategists... Third fleet ever created.
All three of them still high up in the numbers, still high up in activity. I think this is absolutely astonishing and extremely commendable.
So, for all of you that are interested in joining me in this tribute, this is for your continued presence in the player and fleet ranks, and for your seemingly eternal, continued presence in the game itself. To your devotion; it takes a lot of it to stick around this long.
Cheers.
-Demorian

If someone sends you flowers, you send back flowers too
GTN, a fleet, well known by (almost) everybody
in the current days, one of the last UGTO-"brick-wall's" against the enemy's
statistics:
- 20 planets in 6 star-systems [GTN]
- 16 planets in 5 star-systems [MoA]
- 17 planets in 6 star-systems ["the others"]
a total of 53 planets in 6 star-systems
as you can see, (more than) one third is [GTN]
and that is because....
- you find [GTN] online in the MV (almost) all the time
- you call for help - [GTN] will come
- you react to a call - mostly the call comes from [GTN]
you are active, good player, good friends and trustworthy
so, thanks for the flowers, but you deserve them too
i salute you

/me salutes the big three
It is worthy of respect to have such proud, strong fleets that have been around for so long.
For my own part I have to thank eXS, for their 1337 planet capping team.
