Sylvan's powers reak of heinosity(not a word, don't bother looking it up). They are deathful in their crapulence and that is a perfectly cromulent evaluation of their duckiness. Your soccermomlian naivite is very cute, I'll admit that. However, the game balance issues regarding those powers are as fuzzy as butterfly ballots and Al Gore's math. To put it another way, when 3+ Sylvans are together the only way you're not going to die is if you completely avoid them, they screw up, or if you are more thoroughly overpowered then they are(ie lich). Therefore, to name them a "DeathSquad" is a perfectly legitimate label, for that is what they are, three-plus people who if you get in their way will bring death unto you and your village. As far as You, Pikel, Jaemaen, Mendeiron, Culwch, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. not having OOC information regulating your login times, you are a damn fool. While I doubt that it was a matter of ICQ/IRC liasons I'm infinitely positive that the duckies in that group(ie all those that weren't Pikel or Mendeiron, though I put nothing past Sebeok) realized that those two individuals only logged in at certain times and thus that became your time to login. It was a preordained or organized state of affairs, it was 4 or 5 losers clinging to the coattails of an immortal-mort and a soon-to-be immortal.
