Good Grief is all about having fun, not how many islands you can hold. We put everything into a blockade, but winning still isn't our number one priority; this is a game, after all.

We're a flag that puts together blockades as a team, because of this, you'll find us giving our blockade positions to flaggies first. If people put in the work, then those people reap the rewards.

As a flag we can offer you many ways to get involved, and we're a friendly bunch of people. Watch out for the King, Crazee, though. He's a bit... insane in the membrane.
