This post is to honor players that you have a played with and you think are fantastic and trustworthy allies. If you don't have the dollar to spare on a virtual compliment, put a free one here. Please explain why you believe this player is an excellent ally. Please use this format as it will make the posts easier to read. I'll start:

Player: V3xt
Mode: Ranked 8 player mining
Reason: V3xt gave told me about some tips and tricks like slingshoting with a pirate, helped me with hires, planned a fantastic attack on a mine. Gifted me 50-74 drillers to help me keep my mine. V3xt is also, funny, cheerful and a overall pleasure to be his ally and talk with. I left my back door open, Lesving the perfect for him to take 4 of my outposts, yet he didn't.
Outcome of game: 24 hours left. V3xt is set to win with me getting second

...Is this an alt account made by vext? :p

The people I trust know who they are. No need for me to draw dangerous attention to our strong history that could be used against us in the future.

I will note that that definition of Subterfuge says nothing about directly lying, or making clear violations of agreements. Like, you know, the context in which people LOVE to say "Go look up the definition of Subterfuge!"

Nope, I don't make that many spelling mistakes. :P

I appreciate the sentiment though. Thanks Nojo for being such a competent ally.

I can get where you are coming from about "not wanting unnecessary attention. All I wanted to do was point out that v3xt is a trustworthy ally. I didn't have the dollar to spend so I made a thread here.

How do you think people would respond if you could see who have people medals?
If I had given V3xt a medal and people looked at his profile (which is more people than browse the forums actively) don't you think people who come to the same conclusion that they would if they had just read this post?

But you cant see who's given a medal, and this might be a good reason why they shouldnt change medals to include the giver's name.

I'm not telling you not to share this info. I just saying that Im not going to because it might change the way people react if they see me and that person(s) in the same game.

I think you may be taking this thread too seriously and too strategically. It's just a fun little post. If you don't want to play along because you actually think it will drastically affect your game, then just ignore it.

Shoutout to Samson for being a good ally.

I saw Roadkiehl working with Roadkiehl every single time I was in a match with them.
I think they're in a pre-game alliance!
