History

It all began on a balmy summer day in May of 2010. An unremarkable day likely, and members of CORAM were probably doing nothing but giving random public speeches over the EBS, hunting the flavor of the month PKers, or just relaxing at Mester Arms and laughing giddily at CORAM's giant panda mascot. It wasn't even all that remarkable when a fellow by the name of VonGoldawesome waltzed in. Well it may have been somewhat remarkable. There were a few questions about zerg abuse at the time. One of the original members of CORAM, Sasso VonGoldawesome has a very similar name and others were curious.

It was soon sorted out that Sasso was not zerging and that he seemed to have picked up an admirer, although impostor would soon seem to be a more fitting label. VonGoldawesome would come and go and generally not cause too much trouble for a time. Soon after though, some graffiti was written, a few nasty words were exchanged and things escalated a bit. Gradually, more imposter accounts started to show up. Asso and Crasso VonGoldawesome were next; obviously the guy was trying to push some buttons. Next came Zerger VonGoldawesome, whose rhetoric was full of accusations that Sasso was a Zerger. The irony was not lost on CORAM.

At this point, the term VGA was coined and all except for the original Sasso were put on a the KOS list. The VGAs couldn't get near The Coram Building without getting put down for dirt naps. Between June and August of 2010, scores more VGAs were created and sent to The Home of The Noble EBS. The VGAs never really did much to us. They would come inside, spray Asso is a God over our graffiti, pester Sasso and then die. The bodies piled up outside.

This went on for the rest of the summer and then trickled off. We still got visits from them from time-to-time but not with as much frequency and we had other troubles to worry about. They were taken off KOS and were mostly just ignored. This time of uneasy peace lasted until mid to late fall. That's when the dead ones outside began to rise.

These were (and still are) level one zombies. No not zombies, undead humans with no zombie skills to their names. It's surprising that they were able to break the cades down at all...but they did. Repeatedly. During November and December, The Coram Building saw as many break-ins as it had in all it's post-apocalyptic history. Break-ins happened almost daily. It happened in the blink of an eye. The asshat controlling these zerg was fast...fucking fast. 15 zombie zergs pounding at the doors. CORAM spent most of it's time cading, only to have them brought down and masses of the undead VGAs spill in in a matter of minutes. It seemed to have defied the mechanics of the game.

CORAM spent Christmas of 2010 away from its beloved home with a promise to return on New Year's Day for blood. It was hoped that the time spent away would allow the VGAs to idle and the building could be reclaimed easily. The CORAM Building and surrounding locations were reclaimed that first week of 2011. The VGAs were cleared out The EBS brought back online. And then we waited. We didn't wait long. VGA came on with a fury. New accounts were created and it was revealed that other accounts, ones that had been hiding among us for some were also for the VGA cause. Foxtrot Kilo, Smarty McShotgun, Wingless Wignut. All changed their group affiliation to VonGoldawsome and began their steady attack. CORAM fell, then Mester. One by one the buildings surrounding Coram began to fall to the VGA scourge. Worse still was that all the undead VGAs were picking up the attention of ferals. How tempting to ferals do you think it was to see 15 zombie standing in a single block, then 20, then 25? It was a sark week for sure for CORAM.

The rest of the story is waiting to be told. If you're reading this, it's hoped that you will be a part of its telling. The VGAs have now been zerg listed and a call to zerg hunters has been placed. This page was created to help document the story and also to be used as a tool for hunters. The VGAs must die.

The VGA MO

VGA uses speed as his primary weapon. Once he has broken down cades he will enter the building using one of his Memories of Life alts. Within minutes, he has moved many of his alts into the building, effectively meatshielding and preventing cades being lifted. Whether by design or by luck, he also relies pretty heavily on feral involvement. He stands lots of alts in one block (usually right outside the building he wants to attack) which is a huge incentive to passing ferals. The ferals most likely do a lot of the heavy lifting attacking the cades. Once inside the building, VGA actually does very little attacking except to the cades. His goal seems to be having the doors open at all times. It's really the ferals that pose the biggest danger to survivors inside.

Living VGAs are often placed inside buildings as spies or to spread rhetoric. VGA loves to spray graffiti. Asso is a God is a favorite for graffiti. The point it seems is to further incense CORAM. Spies are likely used to pick target buildings. Wherever CORAM goes, VGA tends to show up.

There doesn't seem to be a consistent time at which the break-ins occur. CORAM has tried to decipher a pattern so that they could be more prepared for the attacks but this tactic hasn't seemed to matter much. When VGA wants to get in, he usually does.
