The remained of 2019 came and went with the Golden Age continuing in full force. 2020 arrived in force, as WTT found itself under attack once again by lunatic Goons in the form of [[The Troon Uprisings]], resulting in another massive purge of Bimmers from SA related Discords, and while this resulted in a short term drop in membership, entirely from people who never talked, it ultimately led to a massive boom in recruitment as the brand gained a new following. During the purge, certain SA Discord owners began referring to the group as "Wideboys", and appreciating the name, the mods of WTT decided to re-brand the entire discord to WIDEBOYS, citing its similarity to BEEFY BOYS and the capitalization and one word scheme of COMMUNISM. | |||
The success of the 7th Golden Age continued with [[BEEFYTV]] being revived and a brand new group game being introduced, Vintage Story. The server for Vintage Story enjoyed several months of success, before it was retired in favor of the return of Gorzhakcraft and because of a very slow dev cycle. | |||
March 2020 brought the COVID-19 outbreak and the increasing of Stay At Home orders in most states. As a result, many game companies offered incentives in game for people to stay home and play games, specifically Blizzard and their massively successful MMO, World of Warcraft, who offered a 100% XP boost for a month. This led to a massive surge in popularity for WoW among the Wideboys, eventually leading to Capri Sun Tzu to reveal that he was still a part time leader of a moderately sized raiding guild on Thrall, which in turn led to [[Operation: Thralls Deep]]. | |||
