No need to be salty about Forlenza winning or say they don't deserve it. They were #1 on the last day so they won the family thing, i'm sure the four remaining families consider it a victory to the side as a whole. Congratulations to whoever won the stars though. We're just happy we got to shoot as much as we can, which should be everyone's objective imho.

I think it will be the final battle..

Forlenza , Siberia , Peakys , Colossal , Yigidos , Salvatore , Salvatrucha , Illuminati > Timeless , Timeline , Estroneo , Requena , Motisi , Resistance

Who the winner in this battle is going to be if they will win. :op
We arent Anachy pact bruh, soz.

Then which pact are you ? Can you inform us about your policies ?

Why would he inform someone that doesn't even show his name about his 'policies'? Especially considering how everything you say on this website gets burnt down by people like yourself, no matter what. And if you'd like to know; Colossal has had 3 bloods since the beginning of the version and didn't add anyone after that. I think based on the previous wars, (most) people can figure out who they are by now.

Fucking rekt

Colossal biggest fail fam ever played this game. I never saw a family having so much potential but fail misarebly every fucking version

Couldn't agree more.. I haven't been around that much but as far as I've seen, even tho I hold a lot of respect for some tops, they seem to be the new marazzino.. Like before, huge power house for nothing..
Oh look, Lamark agrees.

We better retire Crackajack, when such renowned players compare you to marazzino.

There is an online platform, I can't remember it's name, where you can "sell" downloads for free and ask for a tip/donation. They take the view that VAT does not apply to tips/gratuities. It seems like it's a bit of an avoidance scheme but he reality is, if the customer really doesn't have to give the tip, isn't coerced into doing so and isn't even given a rcommended price, then it really is outside the scope of VAT.


dunno how true this actually is.

While I'd like to believe that the crew is making shit up to rip us off, there is some truth to their story. I don't think the donation codes we buy can be marked as actual donations. It's a product, and they're selling it with the sole purpose of making money. Which makes it turnover and it should be taxed.

The mission of Omerta Ltd nowadays is to make money and anyone claiming that they're using their donation code income to do noble things is liar. The reason they never got looked into by tax authorities is probably because it's only a small company, but it makes perfect sense that they're being forced to charge VAT for donation codes.

What's weird about all of this is why they aren't charging VAT for other donating methods, would be nice to get a more detailed explanation about that.
Yeah, pretty much this.

There's been a few changes to VAT laws in the EU that went into effect in 2015, specifically for online transactions. This is most likely related to that.

Donations, in the legal sense, usually require some kind of not-for-profit status, which wouldn't apply to Omerta. VAT has to be charged for everything else, aside from a small list of exceptions which don't happen to include increased click limits or ingame money.

If you have ever dealt with bookkeeping for a company, you'll know that VAT is a tax that companies merely collect and then forward to the tax authorities, they don't get to keep it. The VAT rate in the UK is 20%, so for every DC sold at € 2.99, Omerta collects € 0.60 VAT which has to be paid to the tax authorities.

Yea that's basically it. I don't know much about VAT regarding online transactions but i do know you need a very good excuse as to why you're not charging it, even when it comes to "donations". I still think it's weird they only raised the paypal prices though, but there's some VAT exemptions when it comes to foreign countries, so that probably explains it.

Do not take any risks, the Siyahsancak family version will be the winner ? When we look at users who spends ten people don't have 300K+ bullets. I think that should be the easy version.. xD
most of the siyahsancak's rankers have only 120k shoots on them while gambino-ferocia-rivera have 300k+. They don't deserve to win, they didn't even attack to big families. It would be greaceful to let them win the hof, really.

I don't know the meaning of the word 'greaceful', but at least Siyah didn't sell any of their bloods (directly).. Besides, you're comparing a smaller family with -detroit- spots that pumped most of their resources into 4-5 accounts (gambino) with a family that got next to nothing in -vegas- because colossal owned 90% of the spots there. These figures honestly don't mean a whole lot. I'd say Siyah did a pretty decent job so far, although i think it's highly unlikely that considering recent evens, families like gambino and ferocia will let them win. We'll see though..

Colo crying like a bitch now on OB while they had plenty chances to do something and where offered plenty chances but pussied out or thought they where playing it smart. Where was colo when this same pact was shooting aert+lusa? When empusa, imperium, phoenix, caliante shot against this new pact and you pussied out after which empusa shot you as they saw they couldn't work whit you so better try and kill you to finish the first war. What if you had shot whit them then? Instead crying here now.

Where were we when Aeterna/Lusa was shooting Guardians? We were covering Corvus because after killing Empusa almost single-handedly we had only 5 accounts left with 2 shots. The real question is: Where was Gambino who was supposed to cover another family and where was Caliente? I guess we know the answer now. Don't talk about things you know nothing about kid.

hey jimbo this is the last war like gayberia bosp gaypact hit last version janni you know? :) stop crying around its GANGBANG time for the GANGBANGER last version ;)


no one ever talk with all this statistics last version why now? cause you gays are on the loosing side or wtf is wrong with you guys? after anarchjy war siberia just clean up all the others with his HUGE GAY pact no one ever TALK about it...

so YOU LOSE and THEY WONE stop whinning


you spell whining with one "n". I was retired last version and if you think using the past to justify the pathetic ratios then I guess you can be truly happy when you win HOF with like 12 families. Again, congrats, but that's not anything to be proud of.


oh if your family wins its ok even if its the PAST did you see the last version how much familys win hof with how much familys left??? noooo then stfu pls

Last version Anarchy consisted of 60% of the highranks in the game. It required a large group of families to beat them. A large group of families which, once Anarchy had been killed, had very little reason not to kill each other. This is different. All Guardians/Siyah/Caliente/Lionsgate/Rivera/Repiblic/Ferocia/Punisher/Ohana/Gambino have used their massive pact for is to gangbang Vincitori, and then pick off families that had been weakened from the initial wars (Sib vs Anarchy). The only excuse to make a pact is to use it against an equally substantial side, instead this pact actually went out of their way to avoid fighting the initial sides and used their strength to simply play cleanup. A joke.

People might say they became the thing they were fighting against, but that's almost inevitable if they wanted to stand a chance. What the actually have become is much, much worse. If they created their side for a reason, that reason got lost somewhere along the way. Not only are they the most pointless pact to develop in the history of the game, they're also the most cowardly.

For everyone not involved in the current attacking side, it was a nice version, two even sides yet again for Anarchy+ and Siberia+ which allowed some fun, close wars and interesting stalemates, and I was happy to see mostly responsible blooding by families of just 2-3 max. Congratulations to the new pact for winning I suppose. You've put yourselves in the spotlight now, I hope you can handle the heat.

Been trying to write something like this for the past 30 minutes. Couldn't agree more with you, whoever you are.

Anonymous at 00:26:00 on 08/02:Vinci was one of the first fams to start massblood. If they had time after anarchy vs siberia, they would have done so.

I don't suffer from amnesia and I do remember how things here went in the past.

I don't get where does myth of Vinci starting massblooding come from?
You talk about 2,1 when Vinci started, or 2,3 to 2,4 where everyone played in alliance where idd Affinitas was huge? Or you talk about 2,8 where Vinci had 6-7 bloods which was normal for those times?
Or you talk about 2,9 where we had overall 8 bloods, (where never all of them were up at the same time) in version where Vinci was up twice. Now don't forget that during times Omerta was still at it's peak and it had around 10k active players at least.
Or you talk about 3,0 where we had one war against 20+ families? Even in that version we didn't have more than 6 bloods, 7 at the very end cause we blooded Dead Rabbits when version was already decided (Kerberos, Vaffanculo, Gravano, Gambino, Talamasca and later Leviticus and after that we added DIG because Talamasca joined them, Dead Rabbits and Liberta) in version that lasted almost a year. That's 8 families in a year long version. In version that probably had over 100 families up. And for the record we started with 5 bloods, which in that that time was pretty normal number.
Or you talk about 3,1 where we had 4 bloods? Vaffanculo, Gravano, Talamasca, Civella.
Or you talk about 3,2 where again we had 5 bloods on start adding 1 more later on? Conflict, Vaffanculo, Gravano, Liberta, Talamasca and we blooded Presidential after 1st war.
Or we are talking about 3,3 where we had 5 bloods again. Conflict, Marangello, Gravano, Liberta and Venture? Where we ended up killing Venture cause we found out they were making plan to kill us with our bloods.
I didn't play 3,4 but I don't think it went much different.

Most of you talking about pacts here have no clue where that word came from. First group people here called pact was Conflict - Curse - Righelli - Illusion (with some more fams). Those fams were literally making us all look like clowns trying to fight them and fail, that people started calling them pact cause everyone felt powerless in attempts to kill them. That lasted from 2.7 to 2.8a (4 versions, thought they didn't win 2.8).

It's amazing how people here suffer from amnesia and how events actually went. We as Vinci played our own role in pacts, and yes we did use that play style cause it is so effective, but please do not give bullshit here how we started it and this is just reaction to it. Vincitori prior to this version didn't play for 3 years, and you still say families play that way cause Vincitori forced everyone to play that way? Please stop lying to yourself or others. And besides look at versions where Vincitori wasn't shot out of pure fear or hate (2,9), we actually played quite different than most of you remember and talk here.

So you are saying that you werent blood of I&D or later DIG, and only after Talamasca join them, and only cos of talamasca you became blood of DIGIT ? whahahahha you are a clown ROFLMAO
how can you speak of version 2.1 or 2.2 or even 2.3? What was your nickname , or what was your ingames ? You make and came here so badly told a story so many times that I think you stay to believe in your version. Go back to your cave .

Anyway i do agree that wasnt vincitori fault the game style used back those days, and even less nowdays game style.

Sorry to burst your bubble Johnny but only 2.1 lasted a little over a year all other versions didn't even last for 6 months.
And then the pact thing, first pacts came when .tr players were able ( able yes for the .tr lines were opened to visit the com world.) to play .com server for they made a pact with other families to kill certain other blood/sis families and then the sisterfams and bloodfams thingy went down the drain. and all that happend in versions 2.4 till 2.6 orso then a pact to have was normal like yours or nls or whatever fucking name they giving it.
So yes your memory is not so good nomore.

have a good day.

ZinA` Since 2.0 ;)
Pacting is around since 1.0, hell most fams even had 6/7 bloods in 1.0 and no turks to be found.
Blaming turks for pacting is just racist, it started way earlier when mostly dutch people were playing the game.

Blaming Turks is racist, but blaming dutchies, np. :D
LOL Life it's not blaming READ with your head for once instead of blaming and Hell they even invented the word Pact.
that's call it like it was. and no dear before all that it were bloods :)

:w

Sure, you can overlook that your first post was absolute nonsense and go straight to accusing people of being unable to read whatsoever. Fact of the matter is that the discussion was revolving about whether versions used to be longer than 6 months, which they obviously were (source: redspeertpedia). The term 'pact' is by no means related to omerta either, unless Brando's ancestors made a mafia game played on stone tablets over 2000 years ago. But you believe what you want, maybe cut down on the booze a little to preserve your memory..
