I nominate StJude He was never (that i know of) Leader of a great alliance. He never Had realy true military power. He din't had influence in any big alliances. Still, he was very wel knowby the ones that talked in GC. Must of them had "strong reactions" just to see Jude in GC. Jude cross arms whit realy big alliances, like H? StJude got hammer to Oblivion several times, in Wars vs several strongers alliances. Jude dint know how to shut up, or surrender. But, to the ones that did had the pleasur to know him a littel more, he was far from being the king of trolls, like we was sow many times treated in GC. He was actualy very polite, friendly whit great sence of humor. He never forgot that illy, was an game. and just wanted to play his away, doing things a littel diferent. And he is back to illy. I realy think that now whit the player spotlight, (and liking him or not)... illy player's should reconize that we had indeed gived his share of "spark" to illy for an long time, in the "old days". I know, theres a lot of vet's that also shloud be remenber now. but i think that in this particulary case, his return woul go well whit the spotlight nominate. Very Sorry for the Eng.. But i am an Orc, just in case someone din't noticed. ------------- http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/a/p/21645" rel="nofollow">

Rules, rules only. No, sir, I have certainly not send IGM for these two suggestions ... Adding a third proposal: taffiban, my favorite orc See for yourself by ranking the three Knights, the time spent in this game, a lot of players have witnessed their chivalry and ability to assist, especially new players. Being active in the "Global Chat" seems to have one of the most positive characteristics of this candidacy. Do not forget, there are people from the shadows, people who help in silence, and the three knights are just they. These players are the reason why people come back in the game, and about the reasons why many players leave the game, should you all the developers finally consider. (soon) Because-speaking players, and there are plenty, after a serious illness I returned, joining the only game I've ever played. Ficho, also known as Ripple, Knight of Illyriad, mainly thanks to the help of the above three Knights. (and all other like those three Knights from the shadow)  Sorry on my poor English, I learned Russian.

You can nominate any legitimate player, but you have to follow the rules in the OP or it gets ignored. Forum noms do not qualify! :) GM Rikoo ------------- Illyriad Community Manager / Public Relations / community@illyriad.co.uk |
