The Macromaniac Wars was a major event in 69SwagBalls420 servers' history.

Context

On 8th of November, The SwagBall mod team has retired their local chatbot Girard and put him into an isolated channel to rewrite him, with members getting the option to do this, this led to many homestuck's and memes made, with a tiny community growing amongst the new girard fans. With Girard being the greenies favourite source of entertainment, many called him a prophet. The movements On December 3rd, member "charter" was given the unhonourable role of a "greenie" what angered many SwagBallers, since the greenie role is a symbol of either bad humour or being a newgen. There was a minor manhunt all across the server to hunt down the admin that has done these changes to charter's profile, but in the end they haven't been found. With Gatesby trying to to make amends with mods to get charter's role back he miserably failed, and a clear distinction between the mods and the proletariat was beginning to show up. After the movements have begun taking their shape, crochampion has annoucned a full on war between so called loyalists and revolutionaries. Revolutionarie believe that their all-knowing God Girard has predicted the event in advance, are spamming his shelter to make him spew out their spam during the inevitable event on 8th of December.

Loyalist thought	Total mod control, greenie mobbing campaigns

Loyalists were a major faction in the Macromaniac Wars. They believe into total greenie death, with green role being the lowest you can go in the swagballs hierarchy (except for punishment roles).

Leader	Gatesby/Koknese
Swagmen thought	Total dictatorship and monarchy, third way.

The Swagmen was a proposed faction during the Macromaniac Wars. It was dead set on creating total dictatorship, claiming to take the best of both worlds.

— Gatesby/Koknese, The Swagmen Convention

The Convention was signed only by a single mod, leading to Gatesby voiding the faction.

Aftermath

After the war, everything mostly went back to normal and forgotten as a goof. The SwagCord royal couple has announced their divorce, but at the end of the day, maybe the real Macromaniacs were the friends we made along the way.
