2006–Present | 52 Clans, Communities & Projects
Over nearly two decades of gaming, I have founded, led, rebuilt, renamed, reorganized, and occasionally abandoned more clans and gaming communities than I probably should have.
This is the historical record of those organizations and projects.
The 52 entries below should not be interpreted as 52 completely unrelated organizations. Some were direct renames or successors of previous clans. Others were short-lived concepts that never developed beyond their early stages. Several were restarted after collapsing, while others existed as communities or subdivisions beneath a larger organization.
Each is included because it was established and operated in some capacity during that period of my gaming history.
Blacksky is no longer another name waiting to be replaced.
