And so the 4th War comes to a close.

[Higurashi]

We're finally out of this War of attrition that will go down as the most even War in history that almost any team could've won.

I hand-picked all of you for unique properties, and I'm proud of what we've accomplished. With better luck and activity, we could've definitely won, but that's not what's important. What matters is that we've all been part of Team Aether in War 4. No matter what happens to us as players and humans, that will never change. Keep that pride with you forever.

Thanks, in order of member roles:


mrpaper, Lieutenant - My trusty lieutenant who personally asked for that responsibility and delivered.


EvaRia, Strategist - The perpetual strategist. Your experience is always useful; if only we could've used it more.


UTAlan, Soldier - My trusty squire. I can always depend on you being by my side, keeping things in order and being one of the best duellists.


hainkarga, Duel Organizer - The hard-worker and de facto Strategist. You gave us a big boost through rough times, and it's good to see my observations on your diligence were accurate. You've forever earned a bid from me in future Wars, and you were always pleasant to work with.


Odii Odsen, Soldier - I picked you for your duelling skill. If only you had more games to put that to use.


markilleruk, Soldier - Very pleasant bloke. Similarly, you didn't get to play a lot and thus I haven't seen enough of you :>


Shaliyah, Soldier/Royal Mascot - Somehow I knew we'd understand each other on a personal level, and creating bonds is what teams are all about. I just want to keep working with you.

I hope to see you all around as active members of the community, as you're all quite unique individuals, and I look forward to working (playing, really) with any of you in the future. On a closing note, we need to decide on the Sportsmanship Award (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,34596.0.html).

Thanks Higs, gotta agree on everything here!  Of course an aether praise ain't complete without the mention of you who we're our leader and inspiration to get those wins we needed!
Special mention from me to Haink who worked a ton for our team and to Shaliyah for the cheer and fun part!

[hainkarga]

It was a great pleasure to be a part of the team and play alongside with you. I thank you all for the fun. Like i said earlier; Higs picked up a great team. Since the beginning, i really wanted to see Higs with the rainbowish grandmaster forum avatar. Next time i  hope. See you around!

Thanks to all, especially Higs, for such a great War experience. shall reign these boards, but it looks like it will have to wait until War 5 to do so.

My first war, thanks that I could learn so much about war and aether. We were a bit unlucky imo.
