At some point, Prude found out that [[Lowtax]], the owner of SomethingAwful, had a private discord that was actually open to everyone. The Bimmers used this as a chance to fuck with him and proceeded to dump copious amounts of anime tiddies into the discord daily, eventually getting a response from Lowtax that would result in him banning politics in GBS. | |||

Prior to the ousting, Taylor had planned to leverage the groups access to gain access to the development of [[GDN]], which had stagnated due to Kales lack of interest, as a way to increase BMWs recruitment, by finding troubled users using text recognition. This basic concept would later be used as the basis for the cover story during Operation Overlard. | Prior to the ousting, Taylor had planned to leverage the groups access to gain access to the development of [[GDN]], which had stagnated due to Kales lack of interest, as a way to increase BMWs recruitment, by finding troubled users using text recognition.

After BMW had been ousted from SA Discord and had moved on from Goons, they had committed to helping forlorn Goons in what became known as the SA Rapefugee Program (A program originally meant to use GDN to find oppressed Goons), which sought out Goons who exhibited wrong-think publically on the forums. The program was largely a success for months, but in May of 2018, began to turn sour. A small contingent of the rapefugees, led by notorious pedophile Tallgeese, lashed out at WTT mod [[Prude]] over his love for traps and their misunderstanding of the word vestigial. In hindsight its clear this was their own latent pedo tendencies lashing out in some sort of weird closeted cry for attention. Regardless, a small group of these posters fucked off into a small discord that would later fold. | |||
A month later, Taylor would begin receiving strange and threatening texts in the middle of the night from people who claimed that he would be doxxed and outed as a racist, presumably by Goons. The dissident admins feigned sympathy, but after The Sauce Affair it would become clear they were either involved or at the very least, knowledgeable, as information obtained during [[The Skirmish Of Wonka Plains]] showed that a parachute discord had been prepared almost directly in sync with the text messages, assumadly coordinated by Sauce and [[Hindered]]. The admins eventually found an excuse in the form of a missed permission for a music bot to stage an all out coup against Taylor. The attempt utterly failed as the group lacked any charisma and the subsequent restructuring of WTT led to a renaissance in the groups culture, largely overshadowing the coup plotters. | |||

From August of 2018 until March of 2019, there were little to no skirmishes among the combatants. However, ever since the ousting of Taylor from SA Discord, it had died a slow death, eventually dwindling down to a few users and only a few hundred posts a day. | |||
WTT however continued to flourish, as the priorities of the group had been refocused and the toxic elements had mostly self deported. However, in October of 2018, The Sauce would return during a sudden uptick in The Incels group activity (something that would die out just a few weeks later due to their own mismanagement of the group). WTT Historians have never agreed on why Sauce returned, but it is widely believed that based on the timing, he intended to either gloat or to entrench himself back into the group. The latter was mostly unsuccessful due to his chaotic and sporadic nature, as well as it inability to commit to anything. | |||
In December, WTT would officially removed politics from its platform, choosing to move it to a new platform, Rocket.Chat. | |||

In March of 2019, Taylor officially stepped down as leader of WTT, handing the reins over to [[Peaches]] and [[AlexanderDeLarge]], two long time and trusted mods of WTT. Along with this move, Prude brought forth the idea to bring back politics from the dying Rocket.Chat platform to a seperate Discord, specifically the former [[COMMUNISM]] discord, [[BEEFY BOYS]]. | |||
The newfound platform and freedom from the obligations of leading WTT encouraged Taylor to don his "Taylor Unchained" persona, where he went on a tour of fucking with people, mostly The Incels and TT, reigniting the war. The first battle of this new chapter in the war was The Skirmish of Wonka Plains, where Taylor and new WTT Colonel, [[DerVerrater]], went into their dead discord and openly mocked them and [[Kimsemus]]. The latter would try and scold Taylor for sullying his good name and trying to take credit for creating BMW. He was mostly laughed at for being a faggot who cried about internet things. The BEEFY BOYS were eventually banned from Wonka discord in a fit of incel rage. | |||

The most explosive operation in the war occurred as part of TTs ongoing struggle for relevancy. In the past few months, he had attempted to rebrand his discord as an LGBTQIABBQLMAO+ safe discord as well as a safe space for mental care. In line with this, he created a special role to access the channels where one could get this help. However, in his ineptitude, the role also revealed a channel where FAT32, Tempus, and IAmKale had one year earlier plotted to ban Taylor and assassinate his character. Also included in the channel was a trove of personal information on the 3, information that would eventually make its way to 8chan and KiwiFarms due to their interest in TT after GDN had been put into Lowtaxes discord. | |||
TT, in a panic, created a cover story with FAT32 and Kimsemus to frame Taylor. A preposterous story was concocted that involved Taylor gaining access to FATs bot, [[Brobot]], and gaining access to every channel it was in and logging all the information for years. TT would flaunt this info in an attempt to spook Taylor into believing he was going to be banned and to what other ends are unclear. However, [[Capri Sun Tzu]] would put together a comprehensive pdf detailing the events as they really occurred and absolving Taylor of any crimes. | |||

In May however, the war took a dark turn when the depths of The Sauces betrayal came to light. Rumors had emerged for months that The Sauce was a turncoat to WTT and BEEFY BOYS, as such, Taylor and company were careful with what information Sauce had access to, making sure only the information he was filtering was predominately mocking TT and The Incels. The full breadth of his betrayal was revealed when c0rndog would leak a DM between him and notorious German incel, Rejdukian, showing that Sauce had been telling them all very sensitive and personal information about Taylor, including home addresses. | |||
After the leaking of an opsec channel that was meant to frame Capri for his earlier comprehensive defense of Taylor, WTT would move to ban The Sauce and his associates from all portions of the platform. What resulted was a complete and total meltdown, including a massive text chain between him and Taylor where Sauce posed as some sort of "Anonymous" style hacker of justice who was going to take down Taylor. When this had failed, Sauce broke down and resorted to texting Taylor directly via his actual phone number, issuing a number of personal threats of bodily harm. This behavior would be repeated several times in DMs with mediators. | |||
As the dust settled from the affair, WTT brass decided the war had run its course and would come to and end, seeing as the combatants were venturing into IRL territory. At midnight on May 4th, 2019, Clown World War I officially ended with no clear victor. | |||

Both sides throughout the war always contended that they were always the victors in each battle and skirmish, even if it was clear they were not. | |||
On the WTT front, multiple mods and admins had been lost due to The Incel Uprising and The Sauce Affair, however in the case for the former, this was more of a boon as it removed toxic undermining elements from the group allowing it to flourish and to place more devoted and competent leaders into power. | |||
On the SA Discord front, however, it was mostly grim. After the banning of Taylor and the Bimmers, activity hit all time lows. Even with several attempts at revitalizing the discord, nothing ever stuck. The only daily activity coming from a completely unrelated and detached Path of Exile clan who operated in a corner of the discord, completely apart from the rest of the population. | |||
Serious Overchill was mostly absent from the later portions of the war, and never had any real stake in the war. However, they began siphoning much of SA Discords traffic into themselves. | |||
The Incels would see brief success in June and then October, with their ARMA III/Terraria server and Rust group, respectively. However, the former naturally died off and the latter would split from their Discord in an ironic show of lack of leadership on The Incels part. | |||
After The Sauce Affair, Sauce would go on to create his own splinter. However, unlike The Incels, it didnt generate any of the interest of draw that The Incel Uprising had, and faltered very quickly. | |||
