BLANK
Next, BGeorge3 interviewed YouNoob?, the leader of BLANK. This is what was said:
[SPOIL]
BGeorge3: Hello, as one of the founders of BLANK, would you mind answering some questions for the Unofficial w75 Blog? We'd appreciate it if you could answer most or all of the questions. Thanks.
YouNoob?: Well I don't mind answering these questions Yosh!
BGeorge3: Could you give a brief overview of your tribe’s history? (I.e. Premades, accidental, miss-spelled porn hub and ended up here, etc etc)
YouNoob?: Well Blank doesn't have any tribe history, well this was pre-made (some of the members was with me) but mostly of the other members was met here. but the name Blank was originally got from the anime "No Game, No Life" which is free amazing.
BGeorge3: If you were to describe your tribe’s goals in one sentence, what would they be?
YouNoob?: We have only one goal and that is to win and conquer this world. pretty much my goal in every worlds that I joined and some other members as well.
BGeorge3: Do you think your tribe has what it takes to make it to mid-game? Endgame?
YouNoob?: Off course we have what it takes, with me playing and with team work we could make it to mid, I am confident since I went through all this same scenario in my previous worlds
BGeorge3: What are some tribes you think could be problems down the road?
YouNoob?: Well if the worlds decide to gang bang us since we are in the mid part or if people get's lazy and inactive.
BGeorge3: What is your favorite thing about your tribe?
YouNoob?: My favorite thing about my tribe is the fast response of members and also the cluster that is starting to build up.
BGeorge3: If you could choose any member to straight up join you from another tribe in the world, who would it be and why?
YouNoob?: well I would choose RL friends or Country mate friends here in the tribe, we could easily coordinate with just a Call or a facebook message.
BGeorge3: Some of my (wannabe) journalist friends have asked me to pose some more regular questions, so a classic, what do you think sets your tribe apart from the rest of the top 10.
YouNoob?: Well I don't know from other tribes, but one thing I am sure that every member here is a family and we would help them no matter what, even if we are to fall we will fight till the end, being loyal to the tribe and treasuring them as family is what a awesome tribe would it turn out to be.
BGeorge3: Finally, would you like to give a brief overview of yourself, leadership history and some fun facts about yourself to let us all know what you’re like?
YouNoob?: Ok, to be honest I am a solo player back then on w 52 but I do help if in needed, I am not a great leader like the others, well the only world that I led was when I was on w 69 under method then merged into Varyag and also took part of the leadership. we are rank 1 back then on w 69 but just a little wrong decision could leave the tribe to fall. I've learned my lesson back then, though it was fun but I'll be more wiser than before. Well my real account name was "sakrahe000" (you could check the stats), well I've played different worlds and only few are memorable. In real life I am a young Guitarist/Musician also a college student xD
BGeorge3: I thank you for your participation.

Here is the Editor's Commentary for this tribe:
[SPOIL]
Editor’s commentary:
BLANK, is semi-premade located in K55 with the Shadow family and ~SF~ not far away, could their northwest section be in trouble? Another big threat to BLANK’s southern border is the FUBAR tribe that spans all across the southern half of K55, will they go to war if BLANK decides to expands to the south or FUBAR expands to the north? The tribe that I think could be the biggest threat to BLANK is 333 because they are fairly intertwined along the border of K45/55. In addition, if 333 nobled out BLANK, then 333 would hold a lot of clustered positioning in and around the core. It should be interesting to see what happens with BLANK in the coming months.[/SPOIL]
7.)
Hood was not interviewed due to being a part of the Arrow Family.
8.)
Fart
Next, BGeorge3 interviewed Khite Tzu a.k.a Fark, leader of Fart, the interview went as follows:
[SPOIL]
BGeorge3: Hello, as the founder of the Old Farts family, would you mind answering some questions for the Unofficial w75 Blog? We'd appreciate it if you could answer most or all of the questions. Thanks.
Khite - Faaaaark: you're doing the blog?
BGeorge3: Could you give a brief overview of your tribe’s history? (i.e. Premades, accidental, miss-spelled porn hub and ended up here, etc etc)
Khite – Faaaaark: We're a premade comprising of a group of friends from W58. We recently won W58 and I found life to be boring without TW. I rallied the gang for some more fun and we found a few old world friends along the way in our area.
BGeorge3: If you were to describe your tribe’s goals in one sentence, what would they be?
Khite – Faaaaark: Have fun, enjoy the game and mass delete when the fun ends.
BGeorge3: Do you think your tribe has what it takes to make it to mid-game? Endgame?
Khite – Faaaaark: I'd never start a premade if I didn't know we could make it to mid-game. As for end-game, most of my guys have played accounts in excess of 20-30 million points so that's a no brainer.
BGeorge3: What are some tribes you think could be problems down the road?
Khite – Faaaaark: Problems... hmmm... I'd prefer to keep this to myself. I do not want to name tribes that could take my comments the wrong way. What I will discuss is the tribes that have impressed me.
ARROW/HOOD - They seem to have a good plan. Recruit and purge. Rinse and repeat. An endless amount of food to expand with while controlling their area sensibly. Whether they have the ability to fight a war hardened tribe is yet to be seen. Let's be honest, the Apes skirmish was not a war. Would ARROW have fought them if I had not started flaming Apes on the externals? I suppose we will never know. The issue here is when well-known posters start a PnP war, other tribes tend to jump on board and take advantage of the situation. Apes was simply random recruitment gone bad, which allowed for a well-coordinated tribe to pick them off. Hats off to ARROW for having the balls to do it though.
Norse - Now here's a tribe to watch. Good recruitment and sensible expansion. I'd expect these guys to dominate the south. I've heard good things about their leadership too. I expect them to hang around for a long time if this world's troop speed doesn't bore them to death...
BGeorge3: What is your favorite thing about your tribe?
Khite – Faaaaark: There are minimal internal issues and the new guys we have met have settled in well. Additionally, our skype chat is always alive. Communication is paramount in this game.
BGeorge3: If you could choose any member to straight up join you from another tribe in the world, who would it be and why?
Khite – Faaaaark: Two Nerds One Account - Immunesoul has spunk on the externals. He prances around, but so do I and most of my old world tribemates. The players on that account know how to play during start-up. My only reservation is that if I was here for the long haul, my only doubt would be how long would they hang around for.
BGeorge3: Some of my (wannabe) journalist friends have asked me to pose some more regular questions, so a classic, what do you think sets your tribe apart from the rest of the top 10.
Khite – Faaaaark: My charisma? Or is it my body odour? Now that people know where I am, the tribes around us have responded in differing ways. We seem to have more attention... on the map and in the externals. There's only a handful of tribes here that are defined by the reputation of their leader. Imho, Norse is the only other tribe that has done this.
With this said, a tribe's reputation is often defined by its leader's reputation. It can be a huge advantage if used correctly but it can also be the downfall of a tribe.
BGeorge3: Finally, would you like to give a brief overview of yourself, leadership history and some fun facts about yourself to let us all know what you’re like?
Khite – Faaaaark: Main leadership history includes the following tribes where I was Duke at one stage or another:
W11 – Raven
W12 - DNY
W41 - OCD
W53 - Coming (played in Drama later on)
W58 - Fork
Most people that know me from the externals either love me or hate me. I seem to have a polarizing effect on people. Haters gotta hate I suppose, but my guys are loyal to me as they know what I am capable of when leading with a cool head.
My primary flaw is that if you catch me on a bad day, I will declare on you in a heartbeat. When this happens, my tribe usually responds with mixed thoughts but they knuckle down and go about removing the targeted tribe. This is probably why they love playing with me, I provide wars for them that seriously test their ability.
Finally, I will be the first to admit that I talk it up on the externals but that is what it is for... PnP. Where many fail to back up their statements on the battlefield, I always lead my tribe into war. Players like Allos? will order their tribe to war and then spend the next 3 months internalling everything in sight.
BGeorge3: I thank you for your participation.

Here is the Editor's Commentary for this tribe:
[SPOIL]
Editor’s commentary:
Kind of strange doing a commentary on my own tribe. Haha. So far this premade is doing decent in the startup of this world, regardless of the sparseness of some of their accounts. However, they are surrounded by multiple tribes. With @Night/WrapIt to the north and MW/333 to the south, one can only wonder what will happen in the coming months. Now having declared an official war on the Oxygen Tribe both in-game and on the externals, it should be interesting to see what happens since Fart is only 50% the size of Oxygen in K56. Activity and coordination could play a big part in this war. With this war, is it possible that FUBAR may try to reach in and snag a couple villages off of Oxygen and Fart as they beat on each other? This war will definitely be interesting to watch.

~SF~
Next, BGeorge3 interviewed jlovekamp, leader of ~SF~:
[SPOIL]
BGeorge3: Hello, as the founder of ~SF~, would you mind answering some questions for the Unofficial w75 Blog? We'd appreciate it if you could answer most or all of the questions. Thanks.
Jlovekamp: Will do
BGeorge3: Could you give a brief overview of your tribe’s history? (i.e. Premades, accidental, miss-spelled porn hub and ended up here, etc etc)
Jlovekamp: ~SF~ was founded back on W69. There has been an ever growing group of players that have joined along the way. We are a premade tribe that selects players for each world based on settings and who prefers the setting imposed.
BGeorge3: If you were to describe your tribe’s goals in one sentence, what would they be?
Jlovekamp: I believe our tribes goal is the same as any others, make it to the end of the world and be the last one standing.
BGeorge3: Do you think your tribe has what it takes to make it to mid-game? Endgame?
Jlovekamp: I believe this tribe has what it takes to make it to the end.
BGeorge3: What are some tribes you think could be problems down the road?
Jlovekamp: Problem tribes down the road..... NORSE for one, several of our mentors are playing there. Arrow/Hood, maybe, if they can hold together.
BGeorge3: What is your favorite thing about your tribe?
Jlovekamp: How well we all work together as a team. Playing several worlds together you can almost anticipate a tribemates next move.
BGeorge3: If you could choose any member to straight up join you from another tribe in the world, who would it be and why?
Jlovekamp: Two Nerds One Account - My old mentor.
BGeorge3: Some of my (wannabe) journalist friends have asked me to pose some more regular questions, so a classic, what do you think sets your tribe apart from the rest of the top 10.
Jlovekamp: Strong leadership without the dictatorship.
BGeorge3: Finally, would you like to give a brief overview of yourself, leadership history and some fun facts about yourself to let us all know what you’re like?
Jlovekamp: Hmmm, a toughy here. Started playing TW on W5....lead a few tribes here and there but always seemed to bounce around. Fell into communication with Immunesoul on W68 and he helped my gameplay dramatically. Leadership in general has always been easy for me as it is what I do in RL. I am a Maintenance Director for a trucking company with over 3000 pieces of equipment hauling frieght so coordination is necessary. Planning and the cooperation of others is essential to what I do every day. Fun facts, well, I enjoy antagonizing people. A fellow leader told me recently that he compares me Richard Nixon.
BGeorge3:
Very nice. Thank you for your participation.[/SPOIL]
Here is the Editor's Commentary for this tribe:
[SPOIL]
Editor’s commentary:
Well, the SF tribe. They are located in the core in K45, surrounded by multiple of the top tribes with Arrow/Hood and the Shadow family to their west, Fart and MW to their north, and 333 to their east, things definitely don’t look good for the future of this tribe. They say multiple of their mentors are players in Norse, will they somehow work out a deal to be able to stay alive? Maybe they’ll get nobled and co-play accounts in Norse? Another possibility is they could start co-playing accounts in 333 which also seems to be somehow related to Norse. Ultimately, I think that this tribe will fall unless they can fight hard and outgrow all the other top tribes in the area, or maybe they’ll simply keep it Stress Free and delete once they see incomings.

Shadow
Next, BGeorge3 interviewed letiss123, leader of Shadow, the interview went as followed:
[SPOIL]
BGeorge3: Hello, as the founder of the Shadow family, would you mind answering some questions for the Unofficial w75 Blog? We'd appreciate it if you could answer most or all of the questions. Thanks.
Regards,
BGeorge3
letiss123: That’s cool
BGeorge3: Could you give a brief overview of your tribe’s history? (i.e. Premades, accidental, miss-spelled porn hub and ended up here, etc etc)
letiss123: Premade: Shadow Knights have been around for quite a few worlds. Most of the members you can see in Shadow have played together on other worlds and work very well together.
BGeorge3: If you were to describe your tribe’s goals in one sentence, what would they be?
letiss123: Goal: Well I think everyone's goal in this world is to win lol, but also having fun while playing
BGeorge3: Do you think your tribe has what it takes to make it to mid-game? Endgame?
letiss123: Future game play: Yes I know that we can make it to mid-game and even end-game. The thing that makes this tribe great is the communication, teamwork and trust between each Tribe members. These are some of my favourite things about my tribe, all of our members are incredible.
BGeorge3: What are some tribes you think could be problems down the road?
letiss123: Possible future problem Tribes: Probably every tribe that is not an ally lol.
BGeorge3: What is your favorite thing about your tribe?
letiss123: Favourite thing about My Tribal family: The players.
BGeorge3: If you could choose any member to straight up join you from another tribe in the world, who would it be and why?
letiss123: Possible Tribe for another world: Something that would be incredible, is having a tribe made up of the dukes from the top 20 tribes. Now that would be something to see
BGeorge3: Some of my (wannabe) journalist friends have asked me to pose some more regular questions, so a classic, what do you think sets your tribe apart from the rest of the top 10.
letiss123: What sets us apart from the rest: What I think sets us apart, is just what I said before; the loyalty, trust, communication and teamwork. I know all good tribes have these things, but when you are in Shadow, you can see how great the sense of community is, and, how all the members are very selfless and willing to help their tribe-mates. I think that's what makes a good tribe.
BGeorge3: Finally, would you like to give a brief overview of yourself, leadership history and some fun facts about yourself to let us all know what you’re like?
letiss123: I have played many worlds and have led quite a few tribes. Under this account you can see it hasn't grown that big and the reason for that is, I usually merge with someone else and do well in mid-end game, but in this world I am going to continue as is. I co-play with a great player, many probably know him. It is MRMR, and we have done very well by working together.
I hope that answers your questions.
Thanks
Letiss123, Duke Shadow Family
BGeorge3: Yes, that works.
I thank you for your participation.

Here is the Editor's Commentary for this tribe:
[SPOIL]
Editor’s commentary:
Hmmm. The Shadow family. They are located in the core in K54. Will they survive? Who knows. Based on the dominance maps, they have Arrow and Hood to their northwest, and then they have Norse in the opposite corner of the K. Who will noble who? Who will be allied with whom? Will the Shadow family look to take over more of the core and go over into K45 and war the ~SF~ tribe? Only time will tell.[/SPOIL]
