Editor's Note
Hello everyone and welcome to the second edition of 'The Olous Bugle'. Thank you for supporting me through this, again this is purely for your entertainment so please don't get offended in any way. I try to be as un-biased as possible. Feel free to critisise me constructively.
World Overview
It has been a month and a week since Olous has opened its doors and two weeks since my first issue came out. Wars have started everywhere with big alliances often being targets. Demeter's Event has given a huge advantage to gold spenders but with it gone a little more equality has come back to the lands of Olous. Rim alliances have started to show themselves (just like Immortals and Empire) and a lot will follow.

44 This ocean seems to be destined for low action levels. OSG is the only alliance with a chance of winning the ocean after they recruited Thracians members and Phoenix Rising members.
To watch: OSG
45 Still the most interesting ocean, Zero Tolerance has fallen down the rankings, OCEANS VETERANS and Turtle Time have jumped up. Order has fallen a bit and rejects have stayed where they are. Nothing is certain for sure yet wih wars brewing and coalitions forming some look to have a better chance than others.
To watch: Turtle Time and OCEANS VETERANS
54 Bunnies are still in control but Jagged Swans are growing right in their backyard, the southern border is very messy with a multitude of alliances coming together on islands. Stay Cool have quite a foothold here since Project Snuggle have joined them.
To watch: Bunnies
55 Same as before, it's Stay and Winners fighting for control while Myrmidons stays in the corner, strenghening their core. Will be interesting to see what plays out as Stay have a coalition against them
To watch: Stay

To watch: Empire

Interview
Q: What do you think of your alliance as a whole ? Do you think it can withstand attacks from OSG, Stay & Swans ?
A: I think that we have the best team all-round, but everyone says that about their own alliance so doesn't really mean much. I think that we have been doing well, still steadily growing (we are one of the fastest growing alliance) and we haven't significantly lost cities to any of our enemies
Q: How about people saying that you are a bad leader ? What do you say to that ? How about being a bad player ?
A: Let them believe what they want, personally I think I could do a bit better but I try my best and try to improve on my mistakes. It is true that I start off badly but afterwards I get better.
Q: People poke at you for having a lot of allies, any comments on this matter ?
A: It's not a lot considering we have these alliances as enemies : OSG, SC and JS at the same time. Anyway us and our pacts have common enemies, that's why we pacted in the first place.
Q: You previously had spy issues, are they still existent ? Could this be due to bad recruitement ?
A: Well spies are always a problem, we never know who will want to jump ship. There was no bad recruitement just bad loyalty from the players

OSG message sent to Thracians:
The best Thracians
For those who haven't crossed paths with me before, I am the founder of the OSG Family.
This is OSG's final comeback, starting in 2010 - OSG has been on many servers, winning some. For this comeback - Ex-OSG leaders from all previous servers joined together to have one final send-off.
I come to you with a proposal, that may interest you or could be the complete opposite.
Instead of us going though an extremely lengthly war - become part of the OSG Family, lock down Oc44 as one, if this doesn't give us all the foundations we need to win this world - it will sure give us a damn fun game.
Whilst alliances in other oceans are fighting for dominance, we could mop up Oc44 together easily, and expand onwards - spreading quickly whilst the others all fight it out for months.
We may not look like we have space, the bad blood is being removed gradually.
This proposal goes out to all the good players of Thracians, the aggressors, the LTS players, the stratergy minded, and the team players. Be part of something bigger.

Q: I saw the message you sent to Thracians, it seemed as if you did not want to continue the war with them. Why?
A: The answer to this is in the message you have seen.
Q: Many people call OSG an MRA. You have 4 branches and previously had 5. You prefer recruiting Thracians rather than eat them and continue a war. Do you agree with quality not quantity or strengh in numbers? Why?
A: We look like an MRA, we recruit like one, we are said to be one, but only the future months will show what we really are. Lets just go along with we are "Just a standard MRA" for now.
Q: Did you have any previous major sucess in previous worlds with OSG ? You established the alliance in 2010, quite a while back. Are you the original founder?
A: OSG has had successes yes. I am not the original founder, just a leader/co-founder in some servers since En5.. But don't feel disappointed - the original founder is with us.
Q: In your message you state that you prefer growing quickly without resistance rather than fight for the ocean 'like the other alliances are doing'. Are you too scared to go to war? What's the point of playing a strategy war game if you don't go to war?
A: What's the point of playing a strategy game without strategy? This is a slow server, with all these turtles and families around - dropping an ocean war for bigger things shouldn't be confused with fear.
