As some of you may know, my life was tragically cut short early on in the Olympia/Cantina conflict.

Yesterday, upon the release of most others who perished in the conflict I received news that I am to be kept pearled for an additional 6 weeks. Given the almost week and half I have already been pearled that puts the total just short of 8 weeks. This would set my release just slightly before November. I have been playing Realms since mid May, and by the time of my release I will have spent over 1/3 of my playtime in the vibe.

While I do agree that I am indeed a no good alt raiding scumbag who probably should spend some time vibing, where/who are we pulling this 8 week number from?

The Goodfellas' adventures only lasted for about 3-4 weeks, logging in only once a weekend for a singular fight. Out of all the time spent "raiding", most of it was spent fighting people who willingly showed up to fight. I was apart of only 3 fights throughout the Goodfellas. Sure, a couple people who showed up got a little in over their heads and died... but we made it a point to not pearl anyone we killed for a prolonged amount of time, only to grab gear and make our escape. Every time we would show up somewhere people would be there ready to fight within minutes so there wasn't really a lot of time to steal anything anyways.

We started the Goodfellas to have fun and to attempt and throw some spice into the server in a seemingly uneventful time. Not only was plenty of spice added, we even accomplished the otherwise impossible... We were able to join enemies together from opposing nations across the server under one common goal: killing us (however they went straight back to killing each other a few weeks later). I think everyone involved can honestly say it was a fun conflict to be a part of, some justified pvp with nearly 0 risk of being pearled if you died, added in with the mafia RP (sry saren). Unfortunately due to players abusing Minecraft mechanics, all of our identities were discovered and made public. Reparations were paid to those cities we fought in, and Vah was big rip.

Now that I am done ranting, I would to request that my pearl time be reevaluated given the crimes I have committed and the reparations that have been paid. I would like for a 3rd party (not a nation we just had a literal war with) to determine an adequate pearl time. I would also like to request that my pearl be moved to previously mentioned 3rd party throughout my sentence. The last point is mainly due to the fact that my set release date is around when the server is scheduled for its bi-monthly Hell/Olympia conflict and I can foresee that interfering with my release.

Thanks for reading.
