It went like this...

Rampage vs. Forsaken
Rampage is on top going in to Velious. Forsaken has some success but ultimately bleeds loot hungry & impatient members to Rampage. Rampage thrives for the first couple of months of Velious and gets 40-50 Sleepers keys while Forsaken only has 1 or 2.

Rampage vs. Forsaken/Asgard (all targets)
Forsaken and Asgard team up and start putting up a good fight in ToV but Rampage is still getting 80% of the targets. Slowly the dynamic shifts towards 50/50. Rampage is still dominating ST keys with F/A lucky to get 1 or 2 out of 5 each week. Rampage killing Vulak every week.

Rampage vs. Forsaken/Asgard/Taken (outside ToV)
FAT has lots of success on the mobs outside of ToV. F/A inside of ToV have started to take ~50% of the targets with some weeks being even better than that. F/A is hungry and Rampage appears to start burning out. F/A is killing Vulaks. Rules change inside ToV so that you can't spam click mobs on their spawn point and now have to coth and insta pull.

Rampage/Taken vs. Forsaken/Asgard
Rampage offers Taken a better deal than they were getting in FAT, including NToV killing. Dynamic inside ToV stays near 50/50. F/A has about 20 ST keys at this point. 15 keyed F/A members sneak in to ST one night and kill 2 warders, which I dont think Rampage thought we could do.

Sleeper awakened.
There is a server repop about 1 week after F/A kills warders, and Rampage/Taken goes for targets outside of ToV while F/A cleans up inside. F/A kills Vulak just as Ramp/Taken are getting back and link the Gharn's in /ooc. A couple of hours later Rampage and a few keyed Taken members head to ST and kill all 4 warders thus waking the sleeper.

Side note: I think the warders being killed by F/A and the gharns dropping might have contributed a little bit to Rampage blowing it up...but more likely them dominating nearly uncontested for 2-3 months in Velious and then going through 3-4 months of serious competition burned out their playmakers. It had to end at some point. Nobody can do what they were doing forever.

remaining Rampage/Taken form Awakened.
Mostly Taken members. A bunch of Rampage that took a break after the awakening have also come back to join them as well.

Awakened vs. Forsaken/Asgard
50/50 for awhile. Some weeks guild a wins, some weeks guild b wins.

Forsaken/Asgard form Aftermath
Friends/pals/etc.

Awakened vs. Aftermath
See: Awakened vs. Forsaken/Asgard

This is all within 7 or 8 months.

The fact that I found this interesting is sad in itself.

Nice history, though. Thanks!
