History
Creation
5 days after Aldranster50 got Member rank on the MRT he found a spot at V18 but it was claimed, however he was reminded about a 2-week claim rule and decided to set an alarm on his phone for 2 weeks later. A few stations down the line from V18 were unclaimed, and he decided to claim it. On the first day of the claim the 1st part of the metro was open between Central & Wallgate. On the day Espilon opened Aldranster50 decided to log on and found out that everyone could claim a 2nd station, and then came an alarm on his phone about the V18 claim, and then he claimed V18 (true story).
