lamuella Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 guys, seriously, drop below the radar. Announce nothing at all. Consolidate your alliance away from the public eye, and only come out to play when your threads can get to 3 replies without someone mentioning the massive failure who used to be your leader.
