Ncordo, later known as Kipse is a former major metagroup leader.

It is estimated he learned of /int/craft from 4chab, and began as a member of Germany in 16.0. He would typically play as Japan, or the closest thing to it. He was notorious for his unusual charisma, erratic behavior, aggressiveness, and unique building style. While most of his nations would eventually collapse, he left behind some of /int/craft's most beautiful towns and brought lots of soul to the servers he played.

Once Germany fell in 16.0, he created the refugee town of 'Neo Tokyo' in ….Götland shortly before the server's conclusion.

Created Japan for the 2nd(?) time based on the island of Shikoku. Would go on to greatly expand his town and faction, forming the foundations of his Metagroup for years to come. Shikoku would eventually be admin abused into oblivion, and ncordo would relocate to many locations until resettling on the falklands, where he and his refugees constructed an earthen “Christ the Redeemer” with a gigantic dirt cock.

Led Japan for a second time for the short lifespan of the server.

Joined Falklands in Wroclaw.

Created Japan with his now burgeoning metagroup. Japan for a time would be one of the server's great powers. Tokyo was the server's greatest city, and the group had expanded to the point where a second town was made in Kyoto under Gamechild.

This was the first iteration where ncordo had real competition however, as 20.0 saw the return of many old metagroups. ncordo's care-free confidence often towed the line of arrogance, and his style of shitposting has always been polarizing to many. This caused great friction between not only these returning veteran groups, but also on the home islands as well.

Tensions had been rising between the leaders of Kyoto and Tokyo leading up to the end of grace. Conflict finally broke out once war was enabled, resulting in a victorious but weakened Tokyo. ncordo, confident from his victory, would set his sights on the Qing, a newfag group led by Mordereth that was alligned with the far-off German Empire. German Kaiser Stryker had grown tired of ncordo's antics, and successfully invaded Tokyo late at night a few days into Grace. ncordo would besiege Berlin in retaliation with what little materials he had in his inventory with a few Japanese remnants, to no avail.

Created Norway, based in Bergen. Had a short war with Switzerland.

Created Japan two weeks into the server's lifespan. Launched an extremely aggressive memeraiding campaign on the entire server. Ultimately was banned along with his entire town for breaking a minor war rule against the town of Samarkand, which was home to many Norse Jannies at the time.

Probably made Japan, but not much is known.

Created Japan once again. Saw early pre-grace success due to his aggressive memeraiding against the USA, led by the ineffectual DonTrump, and incorporated many American towns into his expanding empire. Tokyo was again one of the server's most beautiful towns.

Ncordo would join the Grand Coalition, and aided in the battles of Paris, Stuttgart, Madrid, and even attempted several invasions of Italy as well. On the second weekend of war however, Ncordo's lax restrictions on building would come to haunt him as the Italians would successfully capture Tokyo by attacking from the foundations of a gigantic mega project in the towns east which served as a pre-made FoB.

Ncordo and some Japanese refugees continued the fight and joined baghdad, but to no avail.

Due to the map being a eurocrop, Ncordo's group played as the Baku caliphate based out of an oil rig in the Caspian sea. The leader of the faction was actually an unknown player named “Hankus_Pankus”.

ncordo and his group joined the Austro-Hungarian coalition against the German Empire and played a part in the siege of Danzig on the first war weekend. Soon after the fall of Danzig however, the German remnants would launch a surprise invasion of the Baku Caliphate. Owing to their use of instant bed respawns (low iq reno) the Bronies were able to conquer the Oil rig in under 4 hours despite the inherent defensiveness of the town.

Ncordo would take his men to join the newfag town of Spain, forcefully converting it to islam and integrating its' leader MrDaniel10 into his metagroup. They successfully defended the town against a second, smaller Brony invasion the following war weekend.

Not much is known. Engaged in heavy memeraids against the USA based out of Hispaniola.

Created a smaller town in Ukraine. Aided the Neo-Confederacy in their final war against the Canadians at Voii.

This iteration saw a shift in dynamic for ncordo and his metagroup. His long-time friend Crippo would take leadership over the metagroup and consolidated its numbers into a more organized, less chaotic faction. ncordo took a beakseat role, but remained highly influential in the group.

Built most of Cuba, which was the server's best city. Invaded the neighboring Dominican republic, then got invaded by the Mormons and Americans. Crippo was banned for blatantly killauraing the Mormons, and ncordo was made leader. Due to his refusal to negotiate peace terms as janny uhFiliate demanded, Cuba was given in full to the Deseret Mormons.

Played in Sicily.

Played as the Japanese Self Defense Force based out of Riyadh. Built most of the city in a cyberpunk style.

Barely played, built an unnerving stone pyramid near Bordeaux, France. Eventually left to join Crippo's small town in Hispaniola.

Played with the Norse in Christiania. Built most of the town's better looking sections in the east. Also built a very odd cyberpunk/brutalist structure in northeast Siberia with Crippo. Fought in most of the war weekends. Anecdotes from some members of the Norse claim that ncordo would take drugs such as adderal and would play the server for entire days at a time, building whilst talking to himself.

After a long absence, ncordo once again returned as Emperor of Japan, this time based out of Nagasaki. He built the town in a vertical style, utilizing the natural elevation of the area. He engaged in many memeraids against all neighboring factions and was enemies with his groups' defector-turned-rival TheSpookyBone, leader of the powerful Coloniel Kurtz Legion. His resurgent faction saw much success until the server's eventual collapse. Interestingly, ncordo and members of his town were spared from the Ip leak incident.

Ncordo's building style is very unique, focusing on building a high volume of smaller buildings with a modest level of detail, utilization of the local terrain, excellent use of the local cultural vernacular in use of block choice, and perhaps his greatest skill, his grasp of making cities feel properly urban and just comfy. His style has directly influenced other notable buildfags such as DonTrump, and Falklands, who is a longtime admirer (no homo) of his work and also author of this article. Some consider Ncordo to be one of the best builders /int/craft has ever seen.

Nagasaki in 35.0.

ncordo has always maintained a confusingly loose style of leadership.

He grew his towns using the classic ghoul doctrine tactic of /t inviting anybody that joined the server. While he was able to routinely gain massive populations doing so, he also routinely failed in managing them, and his group suffered events such as the 20.0 civil war as a result. The players that did stick around were generally allowed to build and do whatever they wanted, even to a fault as seen in 24.0. ncordo towns were characterized by former members and onlookers as big and beautiful, but chaotic and ineffective.

Another longtime criticism of ncordo's nations were their complete incompetence in war. Asside from their time assiting Strykergang during the iterations of 2017 and 2018, ncordo's metagroup, even under Crippo's command, has never defeated a single significant town in war except Kyoto in 20.0. Some factors that critics believed caused this was ncordo towns lacking a centralized chest room, allowing members to store their own items and gear in their houses and use fucking towny plots to protect them lol, and their war voice calls being chaotic 20-man shouting matches.

Without context, one might even ponder if ncordo ever cared about winning at all.

ncordo was an enigma. He attracted hundreds of players to build and fight with him owing to his unique charisma and high energy attitude. He is responsible for some of the communities greatest cities, and is the subject of many of its funniest memes. When one thinks of Japan on /int/craft one thinks of him. He has not been seen since Razzcraft, and has been rumored to have joined a government agency.
