 ==== i34 ====
-The beginning of i34 was the theatre of big drama among the Randemist metagroup. The Randemists were very split on what to play. The main choices of Randem were Ainu but it was seen as too isolated from the map (after Crimea Randemists decided to stop playing in boring corners of the map) and then Andorra but jannies refused. So the Randemists settled with Grozny under the suzerainty of Trenchgang (who were already Crimea's suzerain in i32). Andi opposed it and led La Orda to Tuva in hopes of larping as Ungern Sternberg and reforming the Mongol Empire. Palasinge who insisted on the group playing as Grozny informed Trenchgang of Andi’s plot to take over Siberia and the latter was curtailed and exiled to Yakutsk (diamond node in the corner of the world) where he and La Orda would be more closely controlled by Russia. Palasinge’s plot angered most of the community who decided to play with Andi. Because of that, Palasinge didn’t play i34 at all.

Palasinge’s plot angered most of the community who decided to play with Andi. Because of that, Palasinge didn’t play i34 at all.
 This was only the beginning of the drama that would unfold. Indeed, tensions between FunkyGopnik and Andi rapidly boiled and led to Andi kicking Gopnik from Yakutsk. Gop joined Minsk and was not allowed to get any of his stuff back, tried to mermaid Yakutsk, failed and because he had Andi’s minecraft account password, tried to log in and delete Yakutsk. Palasinge warned Andi about it, and the disaster was avoided. Funkopopnig was banned from the Randemist discord server for a few weeks.
 After one week of slaving in Yakutsk (whose buildings were igloos, a ranch and a gulag) La Orda and Lama moved to Mongolia while Octavius joined Gopnik in Minsk. Mongolia was insided by one retarded italian who convinced China to memeraid the mongolians. This memeraid would be the first of many between Andi’s and Woopwooper’s factions.
-The first week of war was a mixed success for La Orda. China had to fight Mongolia, Japan and Swiss mercenaries which guaranteed a certain victory for the Co-Prosperity Sphere. But because the Japanese (who were fignewtons) accidentally broke one of the rules of intman war, the jannies cancelled the fall of the Chinese capital of Lanzhou. This allowed Woopwooper to relocate to Xinjiang. The following week would be disastrous for the Mongolians because the players from the defeated nation of Morocco joined Japan and formed a colony in Siberia. Japan was unaware of Morocco's antics and as they were accused of cheating, the jannies retaliated by griefing and destroying japanese chests. Japan thus ragequitted intboy leaving Mongolia alone against China. Despite having gathered more soldiers than in the previous war day, it was not enough to beat China. Andi entered a state of blazing rage, started cheating alongside other Italians and flew while dropping grenades on the Chinese troops besieging the Mongol capital of Urga. All of the Italians of La Orda were banned and the only remaining soldiers were Lama and MIL0SEVIC. Facing this humiliating defeat, they decided to surrender and fooled around with the Chinese until the end of wartime. This event is remembered in Randemist history as The Rapture or La Raptura.

 ==== i38 ====
-For the gorillionth time Randem could not agree on what faction to play as. Playing the Dirlewanger brigade or another SS division was evoked as playing alongside [[gaztons|Gaztons]] who had ties with palasinge (both are Greek) sounded like an interesting proposition but Gaz withdrew himself from playing the iteration and the group replacing him in Germany was a horde of crigger bestias. The other main proposal was to play in Spain either as the carlists or the Durruti Column. Since Phamtom also wanted to play in Spain, they considered setting up a meme civil war where Phamtom would fight Randem and the leader would lead the whole group. But a secret third option came out of the darkness. When the Randemists were discussing playing Dirlewanger, it was also evoked that they should play as the Warsaw Uprising or as Jews in Auschwitz.
+For the gorillionth time Randem could not agree on what faction to play as. Playing the Dirlewanger brigade or another SS division was initially on the table as playing alongside [[gaztons|Gaztons]] who had ties with palasinge (both are Greek) sounded like an interesting proposition but Gaz withdrew himself from playing the iteration and the group replacing him in Germany was a horde of crigger bestias. The other main proposal was to play in Spain either as the carlists or the Durruti Column.

But a secret third option came out of the darkness. When the Randemists were discussing playing Dirlewanger, it was also suggested that they should play as the Warsaw Uprising or as Jews in Auschwitz.
  This idea was unrealistic and quickly abandoned but it sparked the flame of Zion in the heart of Randem. At this time, Lama was reading the Old Testament and this awakened his desire to larp as the Haganah or Lehi which instantly convinced Palasinge. And so the two of them transformed into [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LI-68tXj4FY|Ben Gurion]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3GoY8qhsNU|Jabotinsky]]. They never expected the rest of the metagroup to follow them and wanted to redo Dr.Vore’s Florence from i32. Israel also posed the issue of the land since i38 had preclaimed nodes for historically existing countries and the UK had already claimed that land, however, in the end Ghoul agreed to have Jerusalem serve as the capital of the Mandate of Palestine and be the UK’s main hub in the Middle East. The zeal and the intense spamming of Lama and Palasinge convinced the rest of Randem with the exception of Andi to join them in Jerusalem. Andi and La Orda thus joined Phamtomguy and formed the majority of his playerbase in Nationalist Spain.

 ==== i41 ====
-Back when i41 was announced, Randemists were shitposting about Sweden and the Swedish accent. Because vintage story’s main food is mushrooms, they memed about the Uppsala Mushroom Association. With i41 taking place during the 30 years war, Sweden was thus a natural choice. The faction was led by Lama and Palasinge and counted on the momentum of i40’s successes to encompass the largest and most diverse group Randem ever had under its leadership. The faction was made of three towns, Uppsala with Randemists, Wojjers and Strykergang members, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxxyuzze-4o|Helsinki]] with people from the Mughal Empire in i38 and Iceland with tazoona & co. Uppsala’s larp was based on mushrooms and gnomes. The spawn and the kitroom of the city was a giant mushroom but the rest of the city was built following the style of 1600s Swedish urban architecture. Uppsala was probably the Randemist city with the most efforts done on comfy buildfagging with various hidden gnome houses, the house of the Moomins and a gnome church built by Kafka. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8T5Y5hcSWEo|Helsinki]] was one giant starfort and Iceland was undertale bullshit or whatever. Sweden was the largest faction of i41 but the iteration was small and the war aspect uninteresting. The Randemists blamed part of the failure of i41 on the lack of knowledge of most people who played about basic European modern history.
