A Brief History of Rounds 12-20

ROCK (led by Jeltje) again in round 12 joined forces with another like-minded alliance, DEADLY (led by Hellish). ROCK and DEADLY merged and created the new tag of DEADLYROCK for the remainder of R12. At the end of R12 DEADLY decided to remain with ROCK and stay for the long haul & today many of the DEADLY faithful still reside within ROCK.

Around R15 saw the rise of the Timeline & Hellish partnership, sometimes controversial - but still good fun and kept ROCK "in shape". R15 also had the fun of a war with xVx (which ROCK won) whilst dealing with VGN incommings, this saw some fine displays DC'ing most memorable of which was lilboi.

Rounds 15-18 were solid enjoyable performances by ROCK. At the end of Round 18 ROCK decided to change it's command structure. Before ROCK was led by CEO's who were in charge of the ROCK community and all the games that she played. With ROCK now only playing one game they felt a change was needed to reflect this. So they (Judder & Lastride) stepped down and the CEO position was abolished; thus the game command become more self determining as it was now led by an HHC (Hellish). Any CEO community responsibilities were transferred to ROCK's High Council.

Round 19 was admittedly not one of ROCK's best "performing" rounds due to increasing real life pressures of the long serving command staff and the retiring of a number of core players. This fragility continued into Round 20 as ROCK lacked new fresh command staff to pick up the slack. With a shrinking PA member-base and less fresh blood coming into the game ROCK was on the edge of leaving PA after almost 7 years of existence.

Recent History: Round 21-22

At the end of Round 20 the high-council was able to step back from directly running the alliance and instead now acts as a kind of House of Lords over the PA HC team. Originally the role of H-HC was offered to Med-Ion for Round21, who willingly took on the role until real-life issues started to take over. Hellkicker took over from M-I early on and his no-nonsense attitude towards member activity and politics soon had ROCK heading down a new and exciting path.

Round 21 saw ROCK finish 16th in the alliance ranking, but with a average member score that was only bettered by two other alliances. Buoyed by this success and with the eyes of the rest of the PA community on us ROCK recruited heavily between Round 21 and 22 with the aim of breaking into the top10 after several rounds absense. A lot can be said about ROCKs approach to politics during Round 22, siding against our long-term friends VGN and the new kids on the block Jenova; themselves home to many ex-ROCKers. Whatever is said however is easily overshadowed by ROCKs final position: 4th. The highest ever position achieved in our long history in PA.

Round 25 was a strange round for ROCK after being p-targeted by the current no 1 alliance (xVx) which included spamming their Def bot on irc the HC decided that they would target xVx until the end of the rd to try stop them from winning after what ROCK felt was unfair tactics , this galvanised the ROCK members who sacrificed personal ranks to try to achieve this , with some help from both CT and Newdawn on the 1st couple of nights Rock continued to pound away at xVx who finished 4th, there was also some very funny gal banners created by both Lastride and Magicmaniac to encourage the members in their actions

ROCK's current and future aim is that it's members have priority every step of the way. ROCK's Command Team is there to support, serve and aid the needs and wishes of her members and the community in any way possible. They are our life, our blood, the very makeup of ROCK. So we continue to strive to ensure that they get as much as enjoyment and success out of the game as possible; whilst never forgetting that FUN is what this is all about.
