08/27/22 – Island Nap and Diplomacy
I wanted to make this post strictly about the working of the island diplomacy. As you guys know we made a discord for the island. There are 144 members from the different alliances that have joined. Everyone has gotten along really well and we have decided to keep the discord going even after lost island has ended. Our group has been that amazing and we want to stay in touch. We have something to appeal to everyone. The food and pet channels have become some of my favorites. There is diplomacy set up for individual alliances as well as the clash zone areas.
The leaders have talked and split up zones with agreements to wonder battle for pvp. The civility of it all still amazes me. All the alliances are working together to make this a great experience for everyone participating. I have to give props to Sulfras for making such an amazing discord and working around the clock to meet individual needs. It’s been truly an honor getting to work with her and it has made me happy that the other alliances have given her credit and thanks for setting things up.
Of course, where would our discord be if the unicorn hunters were not trying to eat me lol. This has become the running theme in discord and has caused me to laugh so hard my sides have hurt. I am hoping that this has helped foster friendships and provided entertainment. We have made a unicorn vs hunter score board and it went…a bit silly. Last I checked both sides were negative like crazy, we found out we can remove points from each other’s team as well as add.
There was a grievances tab called the wrestling pit in case any had concerns but everyone was on board and no complaints so it turned into a fight gif channel. It has truly been wonderful seeing all alliances partake in the silliness. It does confirm a theory I had about none of us have matured into actual adults yet lol.
We share a clash zone with pink but since they have half of area 51, we get the majority of the clash zone nodes and will just swap the wonder back and forth. When we get to the tree opening it was decided that first to the tree gets to claim first and then we rotate out as others reach tree. Our goal was to get everyone the wonders and tree. Even though there is the achievements of holding until milestone timers run out, it pales in comparison to everyone getting conquest achievements. Why have one get the hold achievement when 8 can get conquest?
Because of this mentality it has reduced the stress of lost island and it has not degenerated into one alliance getting salty and rude. Friendships are being made, bonds are being forged, and we got a lot of recipes to try and cook! Sulfras is working on a parting gift goody bag for everyone, last we talked she was going to compile a recipe book for everyone and I am personally looking forward to it!
Here is to the continuation of an amazing lost island experience!!
