NML Hall of Fame - CherryBomb

Troublemaker · September 2018

As part of "NML Hall fo Fame", I proudly present you one of the nominated players: CherryBomb!  

“Hi Everyone in the NML community.

My name is Tina. I'm ## years old (a lady never tells) born and raised in California and now residing in Houston Texas.

My interests are more of a passion. Cooking, animals and my fifteen-year-old daughter. I'm a single mom. I love to cook and feed everyone. I adopted my daughter when she was one month old. She was born cocaine, marijuana and alcohol positive and she is special needs. She is an animal lover like myself and we regularly volunteer at a local non euthanization Animal Shelter to teach her a respect for all life.

When I first came to the Eh Family, a challenge was getting ready to start. I was put on a team and asked to come up with a nickname that was both Vicious and Delicious. CherryBomb was born (honey badger was already taken )

I joined the game 6 or 8 months after it launched. I have never been a gamer before but I loved the show so I gave it a try and then couldn't put it down.

The Eh Family was my first Guild I joined right after I started playing around May 2016. I played in Canada Eh until January 2017 when I left and Joined DTP. I left DTP in June 2017 to go back to the eh family where I played in Legacy Eh. I am now the leader in the second-tier guild Vault112 Eh and the right hand of our Guild founder Andrius

I have so many memorable moments so it's very hard to pinpoint just one that is the most memorable. Maybe it was when I finally hit the local leaderboard. Since I started 6 to 8 months after the game launched it took some work.

I want to say thank you for all of the people who voted for me and thought I deserve this honor. I also want to congratulate all of the other inductees. And I want to say thank you to all of the people who gave up their free time to put all of this together for us.”

Congratulations!

Andrius · September 2018

My question to you is why you have been sticking to the game this long?
What make you to push hard for your guild?
What is your favorite recipe to cook?
Assume in real life, if 4 zombies come up to eat you in 4 directions? what weapons in NML game you would bring with you to bring them down?

xMelx · September 2018

CherryBomb is instrumental to EH running as smoothly as it does. She's loved by all of us. Great Job Love, congrats!!

tinytuna007 · September 2018

@Andrius I've stuck with this game for so long because of all the awesome people I've met. I get to know people from all these different countries and learn different cultures without traveling at all. 😂😂😂

I push so hard for my guild because I love the where everyone looks out for each other. How the elite players Mentor the beginner players. How everyone is so giving of their knowledge. And not just for the game either. I've been there for people through hard times in their life and they've been there for me. My extended family!

I'm not sure that I have a favorite recipe but I love to cook Italian food! I make a great fettuccine alfredo and lasagna and stuffed shells! I can provide instruction and photos if you like 😂😂

4 zombies from 4 different directions? Probably Michonne's Cantina will be my weapon of choice.

tinytuna007 · September 2018

Thank you @xMelx I love you more!

Cherrybomb is the bomb and the EH family wouldn't be as great as it is today without her! Anyone who wants to have a brilliant time please come join us for our next intra guild in October. All visitors are welcome.

darkn33ktar · September 2018

She is a warm hearted person, who gives a lot for the EH Family. She is the engine, who is running it. I can’t imagine the Family without her and the dedication to run the community. With no question of doubt, is she deserving this nomination.

You can have a great laugh with her, but also can have a serious talk with her. She has an open ear for everyone.

Cherrybomb, you rock!

Trickster · September 2018

Knowing Cherrybomb is like eating one of those chocolates with a liquor cherry hidden inside. It's an unexpected explosion, and if you're not careful it goes right to your head.

kiwinz7 · September 2018

I would like to congratulate my dear friend on a accolade well deserved.

@tinytuna007 has given so much of late to the Eh Family
- Former Legacy Eh Elder
- Recently promoted to Vault112 Eh Leader
- Guild Council Representative
- Recruiter
- Player movement co-ordinator
- Running the 2 last Eh Intraguilds

"What is Intraguild - A Eh competition where mixed virtual teams based on a draft, compete against each other. in a knockout format With an individual player Challenge Stars counting towards their overall team score. This is like Nation Wars, however is run over 4 weeks to decide an overall winner."

Of late CherryBomb has been the glue that has kept the Eh Family running.

Thank you & much appreciation

ShadowaceAz · September 2018

Don't know EH, but I guess if you're not an EH alumni, you're just well, not.

Troublemaker · September 2018

@tinytuna007 you have helped so much doing this event... I can clearly see and understand why people love you so much. And no it's not because you bribe with food photos! 😂

Congratulations!

Governator · September 2018

@tinytuna007. Can you share some detail on some of the guild events you have run? I’d like to know and possibly duplicate as the leader of my guild. I haven’t had the privilege of knowing you or even knowing who you are prior to this HOF nomination. Thanks!

JayZ · September 2018

Congratulations! A well-deserving recipient.

@Governator I met Tina through the Intraguild Competition, which is sort of a NML fantasy competition. A bunch of guilds get their players together, and captains draft from over 300 players from various guilds in a bracket style, head-to-head competition. Sixteen total teams compete over the course of four weeks for the crown. In addition to the more than dozen Eh family guilds that participate, there are also players from other guilds (such as the Morbid family that I'm in with Jaden and THC) and a lot of top 50 players from guilds like DTP, French Squad, etc.

It's a lot of fun because you get to play "with" players who you might not ordinarily interact with.

tinytuna007 · September 2018

@Governator the Eh Family has hosted a lot of different formats for the intraguild challenge. The last couple of challenges hosted lasted over a four-week span where each team competed head-to-head with one winner at the end of the four weeks as @JayZ just explained.

We have 16 players who will volunteer to be a team captain. A draft list will be provided with all of the players that are participating. The draft list will include the camp level and a 3 week average for each player. Usually there are 15 to 20 players for each team.

However, because we are anticipating a much larger number of players and more visitors participating in the next challenge we are changing up the format a little. We are looking at the next one to last over at 5 Week span. Although we are still working on the details of the format, I can tell you that it will start with the challenge that starts October 17th. Because it will go through the Halloween holiday the theme will be horror movies.

Once I have a few more details I will start advertising for it. I will cast a wider net so that we can include more Guild families or single players that want to participate.

But just to elaborate on one more thing that @JayZ said. Although we do have many Global players from different influential Guild families that do participate, players of all levels are welcome. Each team consists of players of all levels. Each team captain will take turns picking a player from the draft list. The visitors will be added the eh family Slack and we will have a designated Channel where the draft will be public. It will also be a lot of friendly banter, personal challenges between different teams or players and a lot of smack talk about who is going to win. Once you've joined one of our challenges you'll definitely want to come back for the next one

tinytuna007 · September 2018

@Achillas @JayZ @Troublemaker thank you very much for the kind words

deb1hd · September 2018

I did the intraguild event this past month for the first time. I really had a good time. And learned a few things too. Thanks CherryBomb. For what you do.

Jaden · September 2018

I am glad to see you post about the intra on the forums. If @GrimGael hadn't made it possible for me to join EH Slack when we became a guild family, I might not have heard of it yet.

As it is, I have participated several times and have been a team leader, too.

It's really great fun and if it can become a larger event with more guilds and players joining, it will be even better!

Getting to play with more of my forum friends would be awesome.

javajnkie · September 2018

Congrats @tinytuna007! I've known you for a long time in NML-years, and know this couldn't have happened to a nicer person.

This thread taught me one thing about you that I didn't previously know: you bribe people with food pics? Why have I never been bribed? Lobster please,if you take requests!

Jaden · September 2018

I guess I failed to mention something that I meant to say with my post: those of you who will eventually hopefully join the EH intra will see just how nice of a person Tina is.

I was crazy enough to be a captain whithout even knowing much about any of the players and she helped me to get a great team together, encouraged me all the time, was always there to hear me out if I had any problems whatsoever.

If there were any troubles, she always helped solving them.

I know that she has not been very active on the forums but I hope this is going to change (though I wouldn't know how she would find the time to do that).

tinytuna007 · September 2018

@javajnkie I also bribe with naked photos of @Stelio from his private Video Collection. But if you prefer Lobster!?!?!

tinytuna007 · September 2018

Thank you @Jaden it's always a pleasure!

Caryl · September 2018

@tinytuna007 is an absolutely amazing person ! Ever since I have met her we clicked instantly 😘. She has always shown so much dedication and love towards everything she does in the game! I just recently had the opportunity to be a guest in the Eh Family intraguild competition.... it was the most fun I have had in a long time! To be an outsider looking in was also amazing to see.... the work @tinytuna007 puts into all of this is amazing to see! So much love! Well deserved nomination!

Unfortunately, I do. The refrain is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. Can't stand it!

Here's an interesting read on the band if you have some extra time: https://highline.huffingtonpost.com/articles/en/the-lost-girls/

ShadowaceAz · September 2018

@Dodkong wow. Just wow... I'm speechless

tinytuna007 · September 2018

Thank you @Caryl with your outgoing personality and your positive energy it was a joy having you join us.

TnRRaider · September 2018

This a well deserved nomination. I cant imagine the amount of time and work to keep the EH group working. In the short time I’ve known her she has always stopped what she is doing to help me anytime I need it. I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this. It’s a great honor to be a part of a group that someone so committed and driven. Well done Cherry Bomb you represent EH be proud
