Rubynet loyalists suffered a series of setbacks today. After regaining control of The Mountain briefly this afternoon, their forces were once again pushed out and lost control of The All Night Vampire's School to the insurgents.

Rebel leader marks98 released a statement praising turncoat steven yelle for his part in the victory. He reiterated the need for plug drugs to be brought to justice to prevent further bloodshed.

Loyalist leader Reuban Calabrax was quoted as saying "the first thing you should know about rubynet is... we have people everywhere". He went on to add "let this be an example to anyone who thinks they can get a step ahead of me". However it appears he may have spoken too soon, as opposition fighters are encountering little resistance from the loyalists and holding fast in the two regions under their control.

President Obama again refused to comment on this bloody rebellion. The war weary US president appearsto have no interest in supporting either side, as Rubynet is neither a strategic ally nor a strong trading partner.
