Guild Nights
Posted: Sat Dec 10, 2011 17:16
Wotcha everyone,
Whilst I'm more than happy that The Old Republic is finally launching, and no way would I want to delay that launch, the fact remains that a few short days after go-live it's the Christmas and New Year period.
As a result, lots of people will be bouncing in and out of the game, dependant on the call of family, friends, pub, turkey (the bird, not the nation) and sleep.
So, once all the celebratory shenanigans are over and the new year has started, we'll be looking to start Guild-based* shenanigans.
The plan is simple: On certain days of the week, we'll try and get something organised that people can get involved in. These aren't official Role-Playing Events, they are Flashpoint runs, PvP, and opportunities to get group quests done.
We'll have a thread created for each event, and you'll be able to sign up so we can assign you to a group so that when the event starts you'll be able to just find your group-mates and go.
Attendance is optional. If you'd rather go through the class story, or do some solo levelling that's fine. If you want to set up your own Flashpoint runs, that's cool. But we do ask that if you do sign up, you do your best to attend (yes, real life is no respecter of signups, we know and appreciate family emergencies will always take precedence).
Event start times will most likely be 19:30GMT/BST, with a finish of 22:30GMT/BST, dependant on event and how much fun everyone's having.
Mondays: PvP night.
Wednesday: Flashpoints.
Thursday; Night Hawks
Friday: Group Quests.
Saturday: Flashpoints
The Night Hawks:
I'm fully aware that not everyone in this wonderful community is uses GMT/BST, so I'm hoping that having some events set up for those who need to start "later" because of timezone differences. We'll be running some events as Night Hawk events, so that means a later start, and a later finish.
More information when we get closer to the time, but if you have anything that you'd like considering, please bring it forward.
Cheers,
Hawley.
* We're also hoping that our allies will want to get involved as well!
