She'll rise again, y'all.

I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but in ten days the servers will go up. And:

It's going to be an extremely disorganized mess and it will be hard to recognize anyone from our own community due to the amount of servers. There I am making a list with names of Guru members (in Europe), who are going to play this weekend during the headstart and onward, and who don't mind meeting up with other (European) members of GW2Guru.

I propose using the same server that we played on during the Beta Weekend Events, which is Gandara (English), as it had a very high population during the Beta but this may no longer be the case on launch. If it's still getting hammered however, we may switch to a different server.

Same rules as before:

If you are interested, leave a comment below with what is likely to be the name of your (main) character (I may not update the list immediately but I'll try to keep it as up to date as possible. In case your name is taken or if you changed your mind let me know.

Guild
Everyone on the list will be invited to the GW2Guru EU Guild. I will start up the Guild, but don't expect the Guild to be up until ~ 9.00 AM CET. The Guild will once again be called "Blood and Guru" (reference to the term "blood and gore"), the tag will be "BaG" this time around. Rennok has offered to assist me in managing the Guild.

Chat
C3 seems to be about as good as TeamSpeak 3, and it's free! So now we're using C3, and if you want know how to use it. But since the GW2guru administrators have been so kind to setup a Mumble Server for GW2Guru, we're using Mumble for now:

Our server info is:
Server address: mumble.irexistus.com
Server port: 64763
Server password: bloodandgore

To set up mumble:

[b]Step 1: Go to mumble.sourceforge.net[/b]


Step 2: Click on the version that corresponds with your OS.


Step 3: Launch mumble and go through the audio wizard that is presented to you on start-up. Make sure you use Push-to-talk to avoid unintentional mic-spamming.


Step 4: Press Server -> Connect.


Step 5: Click "add new".


Step 6: Fill in the required information.


Step 7: Click your own name and press "Register" in the drop-down box. (Screenshot from google because you can only do this once)


Step 8: You're ready to go!

If you want me to invite someone who isn't a member of GW2Guru it would be appreciated if you were to ask him/her to join our site.

The list (behind the character name is the name of the GW2Guru member):
- Tin Dao (Alot)
- Malice Black (Malice)
- Trixh (Trixh)
- Rennok (Rennok)
- Gyromax (friend of Rennok)
- Bownbreaker (" ")
- Zaara (" ")
- Dark Predator (anselme25)
- Komatik (Helion)
- Psydrome (Psydrome)
- Ladriav (Ikelepte)
- Striker David (davadude)
- (yet to be determined) (Archress Shayleigh)
- Gwynn/Voox/Joon (Tommy's)
- (yet to be determined) (Icuic)
- Crazy Mikerwave (TheMikerwave)
- Alexandriea (Alexandriea)
- Azerneas (Saiguku)
- Milennin (Milennin)
- Phoenixflare / Phoenix Flare (PhoenixFlare)
- Charity Single (mitz)

Try to give me your character name before the Headstart begins because as you might understand, the forums could be quite desolate once it starts. If this is not an option, try to contact me in-game. Also, it would be greatly appreciated if you were to represent our Guild ingame.

Malice Black - Malice

I will be out of the country for a few months, so wont be playing until I get back.

[Rennok]

Rennok (will probably be my name)

Me and my friends haven't been participating in any of the Beta weekends/stress tests so we don't have names yet.
However, these are the names they will 99% sure use.

-Rennok (Me)
-Gyromax (Friend)
-Bownbreaker (")
-Zaara (")

Same as before, I'm updating the OP.

[Rennok]

Isn't the guild tag bAG?

[davadude]

Striker David - davadude

For some reason (which I forgot, by the way) the creator of the guild in the first BWE (Trixh) went with gAG instead of bAG.

Edited by Alot, 16 August 2012 - 07:23 PM.

[Trixh]

It used to be BaG(was the first time I got into the game and made the most sense). But people disliked it. So I gave them permission to change it.

I like BaG Adds a bit of humor

If there are no objections this time then we will turn it into BaG .

BTW
Who is going to be online the moment they open the gates?

[Archress Shayleigh]

Count me in, but I don't know my character name yet.. :\

EDIT: Raghnall Scarskin is the name, killing human ghosts is the game.

I'll be online for sure! I'll be spamming that login button 4 hours prior to headstart!
And gAG was just a typo... That's what you told me if I remember correctly...
I would prefer it to stay it that way
But I have no problem with it, if it becomes bAG or BAG/BaG( ---> without the typo)

I hope we create a good and fun guru community

Gonna do just the same as Psydrome spamming login thill my keyboard breaks xD

[Tommy's]

Even though I liked gAG better, I'll certainly consider joining. Must say then I'm considering creating my own guild purely for the aesthetic reasons of the tag (I am that terrible), I already know I'm too lazy too lead or anything
I haven't decided on a name, so I'll reply again the 25th.

If you are going to reply, I suggest you do it in-game since we are probably all to busy playing the game .

Good to hear. Will be doing the same .

Edited by Trixh, 16 August 2012 - 08:04 PM.

[Ikelepte]

Will be here on day one but not as early as 6am (counting the pre-headstart). 9-10am. (*whisper*, you made a small mistake in the list. Ikelepte, not Ikilepte but no worries ^^)

[Icuic]

I'll join but I'm still not decided on my main yet so I'll get back to you on that one.

I will be there at the start, hopefully.

[Helion]

Hey how do we gonna find each other or organize or will Trix /w us ingame?

About voice chat you can use C3 as voip its realy good and easy to use and free.
If you download it and made a account i can set one up
but not on release day (morning) but later that day sure

[Trixh]

I already told Alot this.

My plan was not to roll Gandara because I got friends on a other server + the guild I am in is located on a other server as well. (Desolation)

I did not thought it was relevant but with the news I just read I think it is .

I think it is best that somebody who is rolling on Gandara to make the guild.
Reason: http://www.guildwars...ds-home-server/

I will still join tho but since BaG is a Gandara located guild, so can someone make the guild when the gates open?
Volunteers can PM me .

I could always lead the guild but I won't be playing when the gates open. I will be playing on 4 or 5 september because I'm on vacation.
From previous experience I can tell that leading a guild needs a lot of your time and effort. It's not an easy job and especially not for an entire community.

I'll offer every bit of help I have and that's also what I've told Alot in a private message. I'll do my best to do whatever I can to help the leader and all the other members out but I won't be there when it all starts. I'll arrive a week later.

C3 seems to be a good choice for a free service, but how does it compare to other free VoIP programs like TeamSpeak 3 and Raidcall?

Trixh, I will set up the Guild, although I won't be able to do so immediately.

[Alexandriea]

I'll join but won't be on Gandara this time. My friends from Oceania voted on Sea of Sorrows

Glad to see all of you back in action!

Stay classy y'all.
