Background

F-Crew was founded by Bazz, Mike and Wakey back in round 1 while sitting in the local McDonalds. Bazz and Mike had just been introduced to Planetarion by Wakey and together they quickly realised they weren't the only ones at their 6th Form College to be playing this new game. So F-Crew was born with the goal to serve these people, although it quickly became an alliance to serve the whole Farnborough Community.

The alliances turning point came at the start of our second week with the application of Seventh to join our ranks. While he wasnt from Farnborough he was from just down the road and from here on the requirement to be a resident of Farnborough was dropped. This obviously saw a change in F-Crews aims, these new aims somewhat mirrored those of IPC's which quickly led to the two alliances forming a friendship that would pretty much last until IPC disbanded its PA operations in Round 10.5, after playing that round with their members under the F-Crew tag.

Rounds

F-Crew has had a turbulant history, from its glory days where it was fighting tooth and nail with Concordium to the dark days after P2P and pre-PAX. Below is a brief description of some of the important events in F-Crew History.

Round 13

[F-Crew] have high hopes for the coming round. With a slight change of leadership and the return of much loved past members, such as Cm and Eddie at the helm a top 15 position should be achievable.

After a slow start this round they had a slitly feeling of disappointment when only 20 members signup at the start but after that the applications went up quickly. With an avarage score of 767,907 per member they stand solidly on 16 place.

They're really fighting to end on the 14 place. This will mean they would need to overtake APA and Coven. Allthough they aiming for a nice position on the end it doesn't stop them from recruiting unexperienced players to learn them how to play the game. This means an lower average score but it's important to the future of the game.

And as usual [F-Crew] is keeping a neutral stand towards all other alliances even Coven who were a real pain in the ass for them last round.

Did You Know?

• The Farnborough Crew was never intended to be the alliance's name. It was a temporary name used as a site title placeholder but it stuck.
• The shortened name of F-Crew didnt appear until Round 3 and was a product of an alliance-wide compitition to make the alliance name edgier.
• F-Crew is currently the longest running alliance.
• F-Crew is also the only alliance to have played every round uninterrupted.
• Wakey is one of the few Round 1 veterans to have only been a member of a single alliance.
• Wakey still hasn't finished the new F-Crew site
