Re: GW1 Special Event: Get a tormented weapon for HoM!

Very cool -- I always wanted a Torment Weapon! I'm at 30/50 for the HoM already, but I think I may end up doing this as my last hurrah to GW1 :)

GW1 Special Event: Get a tormented weapon for HoM!

August 18 2012
Time to dust off that copy of GW1. ArenaNet is running a special event until 8/30--Wayfarer's Reverie

Basically you're visiting these awesome, nostalgia-inducing places across Tyria. Complete this for all 4 campaigns, you get a token to trade in for a tormented weapon! Especially great for those who don't have any weapons in their HoM, like me :blush:

While Enterprise passes through a "trans-dimensional disturbance," the crew is put into hibernation, leaving Phlox in control of the ship. But is he truly alone?


Enjoy!

Re: Back up server discussion

August 18 2012
Ok, let's close this up.

Here are the results to the poll:

None, we don't need an "official" back up server7
Yak's Bend2
Maguuma2
Jade Quarry2
Stormbluff Isle2
Fort Aspenwood1
Sea of Sorrows1
Northern Shiverpeaks1
Fergusons's Crossing7

Doing some quick math .. ow my head..

Yes19
No7

So let's go with Ferguson's Crossing as our "temporary" back-up server. I would request that if you speak to any members and they're struggling to get onto Crystal Desert you don't immediately point them to the back up server.

Let's try to get as many people as possible onto the real server and if they do decide to go back up, please try and explain that they may end up paying to move later.

I will post this as part of the server "news" on the front-page and also in the Crystal Desert confirmation thread. I won't create a new thread to announce it because I don't want to risk confusing people who may glance across the forums.

Apparently there is a good chance that guesting is not going to be available at launch, but instead free transfers will be offered. However, due to Crystal Desert maybe becoming full there can be an issue were the guild fragments into multiple realms.

It has already been stated by ArenaNet that when someone is on a different realm not only they cannot WvWvW with others, but guild influence is separated from them entirely. Which mean perks, bonuses and guild bank are not shared between realms.

It seems that people are unaware of the issue, because in this topic people are wanting to have no backup server

If think we really need to establish one soon, officially... stated by the officers. Because if not, there's a very good chance that the guild will branch out in multiple servers... being very fragmented.

Free transfers in beta had a cooldown, so say if someone wanted to help someone in the guild they would have to use a free transfer and then discover they cannot come back to crystal desert for 3 days. If the guild is really fragmented, that 3 day cooldown essentially means you can only play with one person every 3 days.

While there is no confirmation about transfers being on a cooldown, I still think we should plan for the worst. Even if there is no cooldown, anyone who transfers cannot go back to Crystal Desert due to it being full.

So it's just better overall to declare a backup server and have 2 communities in case, that way no one has to worry about transfering to help others.

So please, officially set one up to be visible by everyone so that way we don't have guild members who can't play with us and end up leaving :(

Great site! I finally finished reading through the whole thing, and to be honest, it got me very excited about crafting. It also made me realized transwhatever stones can be used on cultural armor, so that i do not have to wait until level 30 to look good, thanks Kerstov.

Re: Plans for headstart

Well, Caeric, if you are super concerned about names, if you hop on around 3am and just skip through the character creation and snag the name you want, when you delete that character, the name is unavailable to anybody else for 24 hours! Just food for thought!

Grrr... Have to work on that Saturday, so:

Go to bed night before, wishing I could stay up but knowing I have to sleep for work
Get up at 4 am, even though I didn't sleep well for thinking about GW2
Go to work
Think about GW2
Get home at 5(ish) pm
Patch Game (even though I patched the night before)
Log In
Hope to get on Crystal Desert
Hope the name(s) I want are available
Not move from my chair for the next 12(ish) hours (or until I fall over asleep)

My plans for roleplay in STO (long)

Also, often used in mmo rolepaly statements in double parenthesis ((like this)) are "out of character remarks".

Though the /me command works great, other RP groups also denote things inside *asterisks*
such as *puts on his hat*.

this is also used to show environmental noise/add to the scene. Example the engineer responding to the captain with background noise:
*claxons and panicked chatter* We're doing what we can, sir, but the core needs to be shut down, or it will breach!

Tried a few generators, and settled on the one below (http://guildwars2.pl/signatures_-_generator,a657,p2).

The initial page was in Polish, but I think the link above will go to the English version.

Halish was on vent earlier and had a great idea. We take shifts spamming the login button - 1 person per hour while the rest of us sleep with our headsets on! lol And when you can finally login you can speak and wake everyone up :woohoo:

So vent party starts at 11:00pm EST?
