The GREAT HOUSE of WILD BILL KELSO

[Commissar Caligula_]

What did this poor bastard do to deserve being thrown out of the family tree?

From what I've been able to gather he was an alternate account who managed to become Content Staff and Citizen before being presumably busted and banned.

[PikeStance]

Yes, he was an alt account that had been banned. To be fair, as Blastoise he was a great contributor to the site and that "name" was fully deserving of citizenship. That being said, there are procedures in place for reinstatement to the site and this site has shown forgiveness for misdeeds. Sometimes, you just have to serve your time and then reapply to join the site later.

I tried the strikethrough and I did not like the way it looked aesthetically.

[Havie]

geez,
to make citizenship twice.. this guy must really have contributed alot.. O_o

He was only a Citizen once.

Now that’s some nice research there . It’s an old house indeed...

[PikeStance]

Thank you,... it is great to get a visit from the "old guards" of the site!

[Wild Bill Kelso]

I do occasionally check in (as in once every year or less ) ) Great to see there is still interest in this old relic of TWC's history!

Very surprised and happy to see you still active Sulla!

A very big thanks to you PikeStance for putting in this work!

My Pleasure "Great-grandpa,"

We should be adding two more distinguished members to the house in the coming days. Here and Here.

Sulla pops in about as frequently as you.

Very good So many generations it is hard to believe! I have fallen a bit into the nostalgia well tonight wading through the back pages of the Thema Devia.

Here are a few old historical gems I thought you would appreciate:

http://web.archive.org/web/200210040...mercastle.com/

^This is the original TWC when it first appeared back in 2002, mtw.gamercastle, with Paul as the original Admin.

http://web.archive.org/web/200308202...com:80/forums/

^When gamercastle folded, Paul had to switch the site over to legiontotalwar.com.

I was on MSN messenger the night he switched over to the new web address and was the second person to register on the new site. Hence Paul appears as user 5 and I appear as user 6. The user IDs lower than Paul were either dummy accounts or old admins from the Ogresnet days (Mithras) who came along a decided to put themselves ahead. Unfortunately, the database from the original site was not ported over and is lost, though I imagine most of the posts from the early legiontotalwar days are gone as well. I wonder if the posts carried over to the current web address?

I don't want to hijack the thread but thought as a historian you would find these links interesting.

FUnny enough I dredged them out of here:

[PikeStance]

This is awesome stuff.

Thanks for sharing! I have on many occasions open a beer and surf the old threads. I love history and genealogy and TWC is an absolute treasure.

Yep. Same here

[Commissar Caligula_]

Huh I didn't know Brig was a member of the House. A Gen 2 member at that.

Also, there's a typo in Gen 8. "JP226 {{Resgined/Revoked}}"
and here "3. The Total patronages include all patronages. The "Current Members" refers to all patronages minor citizens that have resigned or have been revoked."
Should be "minus"?

[PikeStance]

That is why I call him "Uncle Brig."

Typos fixed, thanks!

[♔Greek Strategos♔]

Do you mean Uncle Bill ?
