¨Ok my first statement would be...That Rose is a hoot. Couldn't stop laughing at her little story¨, thus began SpicyJo's right to reply in relation to a single exclusive interview published by the Editorial Team titled ¨The Flower War¨, where Dark R0se, the first former president of State 89, spoke about her experience and her version of her story about the accusations against her.

Can you detail your statement?

She does not know how to tell the truth. I dont know if she has had to manipulate her way through life, but people fall for her stories and it's kind of impressive.

What is it that you disagree with that she said and what is she "manipulating"?

She has been going behind the scenes talking behind people's backs since day 1. People get fed up. People get tired of being used and sabatoged. I did not leave RLHN because of some silly rose event. I left because my closest friend, Hoop, hated her. He did not want to be under her thumb anymore, so I went with him.

She demonstrated, with evidence, an in-game group chat called "SUPER TEAM," where your name appears. She reinforced this with other evidence on Discord where they talked about the same thing. How do you respond to her?

Nowhere in that chat, did I speak. I woke up to being added to that group. I was unaware it existed. She actually knew before I did, as I was sleeping when it was made.

Can you confirm that you were Rose's right-hand and that, according to her, she told you everything from administrative and representative tasks to personal ones?

Yes we talked everyday. I told her things about my real life as well. Which in hindsight...telling a stranger in a game anything personal, was a mistake.

Rose accused you of initiating a vote to remove her from the NAP, what's your version of that story?

That's actually the funniest part. I fought to get her back in nap. Several people will tell you the same thing. I proposed her and BR1N to be forgiven, and even had her join WSS after.

Have you ever considered Rose as a friend?

I did...I was wrong.

Rose talked about a private Discord room that you kept completely secret from her, as she's R5. What was that room for?

Knighty had asked me to make a chat with selected people. Things were tense in RLHN, and he and Hoop were wanting to discuss the next plan. I barely spoke. It was just a few people venting. No one needs permission to have conversations. I was upfront and honest with her about the chat. I did not feel the need to lie about it.

Let's talk about the, according to you, "silly rose event". It's true that RLHN celebrated an intern competition about that event?

I have yet to ask for any rose, or chocolates or anything from the alliance or world chat. It was BigD who was trying to keep Sassy and myself in top 10. He can tell you how much money he spent. On more than one occasion, I told people not to worry about me, just as long as others in the alliance got the wt skin.

I am referring to the past event where RLHN still existed.

Yes I know. BigD was Rotorhead at the time.

Who won the internal competition?

I think it was rose, but I was unaware that members were competing with one another.

Rose said that Rotor won the internal competition to see who could give away the most roses, can you certify that statement?

I'm sure he did. But I was no longer in RLHN at the time.

When you were in RLHN, did you know someone had a crush on you?

Yes, it happens lol not a big deal.

Do you remember who he was?

Lol knighty. He does not play anymore so I don't feel comfortable talking about him though.

Rose accused you of trying to dismantle RLHN, what's your version of that story?

I left with my friend. A couple people followed us, but I actually never told anyone to come with me. Nick and I have stuck together since then, but in no way do I sway people. I simply told him i was leaving with Hoop.

Rose said that every alliance you join falls apart, citing INX, BROO, and WSS as examples. What's your response to that statement?

Inx was a merger. We joined there to help them. Pam was aware. Broo did not work out but part of the game is evolving and moving around, as people quit, alliances get stronger. It's a game, it's strategy.

And WSS?

Simply that...strategy. it would be nice to be in the same alliance from beginning to end. But as a spender, you want to optimize your gameplay best you can. I could throw thousands into an account, but not get anywhere. Wss was the hardest decision for everyone, but when people feel unsatisfied and want to change how they play, then you can't fault them for that.

Rose said “I think the flower event created a jealousy. From what I was told by others, her goal was to be in control of the strongest alliance and the server. And technically, she basically accomplished that. And what did she do with it? She ran the NAP, even when she was just an R four in WSS. And here is my point. It is under her leadership that the server fell. But you never hear about that. All you hear about is how it’s my fault when I have no say on the server, thanks to her vote to keep me out.”, what can you say about that statement?

I had to make a nap chat. She went bonkers and deleted every chat and discord channel to teach everyone a lesson. Mely and I put our heads together to pull it back together. In no way did I run nap chat. I simply made a new chat when she destroyed the old one. I would help votes along, yes. But I did that for her when I was in RLHN as well. I was in the #4 alliance. My voice was not that big lol if nwe wanted to control everything, they had the power to do so. And as far as the rose event, I genuinely don't care for the wt skins. They're too cutesy for my taste. Some people just let it go to their heads.

Did you read Rose's response when the Luxury Time team asked her about the moment when she burned down the entire server?

Yes. She never takes ownership. She blames kyoubou, or anyone else other than herself. She's older than me...she should be able to take accountability.

Rose said: “On the day we did capital. I found out he had been messaging R5s, telling them that if they make him an R4, he will bring all the strong players from RLHN with him. NSTR accepted his offer, and Aeyd went with him.”, what can you confirm about that statement?

She will also never tell you that after it happened, she called me laughing about taking out M&M. That was referring to Adame. I never went to NSTR.

Rose mentioned that Kyoubou knows each other in real life, what can you verify from that information?

Yes, that's one thing she did tell the truth about.

Rose said that ROG begged you at the NAP to let her into that alliance, but you wouldn't let her. What's your version of that story?

That was a nap vote. Rog approached nap chat, and after rose burned the server and refused buffs, she was not welcome into nap until I asked everyone to forgive her.

At that time, was there someone leading the NAP or was there no leadership figure?

I actually lost credibility and friends at the time, because I remained friends with her. No one was "leading" per say. I simply owned the chat to help, but we tried to do things as All leaders, not just one person.

Do you want to send Rose a message through Luxury Time?

Not really. I have her blocked for a reason. Maybe...try not to go behind friends backs to try to sabatoge them. It's hurtful.

Any message for people who don't know your story and for those who know it partially?

Choose your friends wisely. Have fun in the game. Play however you want. Drama is useless.

And for those who were part of that history who are still in State #89?

Haha we survived Rose...we can get through anything.

Do you have any final message or conclusion to close this interview?

No, whether I continue playing or not, it's a fun game if you let it be.

We asked SpicyJo if she could provide us with a screenshot to reinforce her statements, she said that “I could send screenshots of everything she said, but im gonna move on from it. I don't need to drag other people into her mess lol. The screenshots I received are from other people and that's not trust I'm willing to break”.
