I'll be playing on Gandara. If am Lucky I'll get Spinnok Durav

[Rennok]

I've been testing out C3 a bit more with some friends of mine. And there is nothing negative I can say.
We even decided to replace skype with C3 so we didn't have to call eachother while we're gaming.

Thank you Helion for your nice advice. Really appreciated!

Well, I think that we should just go with C3 in that case.

[Rennok]

Yeah sure, if anyone wants to come and have a chat.. I'll probably be in the channel from time to time

Also, you might want to edit the original topic.. If you have the time of course. Let everyone know that we are going to use C3.

[/spoil]

You can add this code to the original topic to make the tutorial I made appear when they click the spoiler. That way everyone will know how to connect to our C3 channel once the game is out.
After that, I think we're about ready to go.
If there is anything else I can do, please let me know.

I'll be there on day one, but if the servers go up early I won't be able to attend the Headstart immediately.

If you're talking about using the public Mumble server for our guild. I would not recommend this. Even though it'll work. We won't have a private channel, we won't have admin rights to ban/kick players that are unwelcome in our channel. And there will be NO password (since it's public). And I don't think that the Guru moderators will give us those admin rights.

Some guilds do this though. They use a public Vent/TS/Mumble (or any other VOIP) to communicate with one another. But you won't be  able to avoid people listening in on your conversation (or even interrupting it).
Mic spammers, Music players and so on our common in public channels. (You can compare this to a TF2 server where everyone is Mic-spamming)

Unless GW2GURU gives us our own channel with our own admin rights (which I doubt they will do) I wouldn't recommend using a public channel for Guild-only purposes. Especially with free VOIP's being brought on the market (Like C3).

Yeah i was thinking the same thing my only question about this service is
how long will they provide it: a day, a week, a month but not the entire year am sure.
So as a we start on day one its a viable option to use  since most ppl are accustomed to Mumble
here on guru.
Afterwards we can still change to something els or pay for our own Mumble

before you decide what to use for first day lets w8 for Rennoks thoughts on this
I think he has more exp with both programs.

Edit: haha nvm he beat me to it

Private Guild and Team Servers
We are able to set up a private Mumble server for you and your guildmates or team. What we require from you:

• The IGN of your guild leader, or the go-to person to contact regarding your server;
  
• Your email address;
  
• Your guild website;
  
• Server password;
  
• How many user slots you require

To start the process, please send me a PM.

I'm sorry I only read the first few lines.

If you want me to, I'll send them a PM. Let me know and I'll get started right away.

I suggest you contact them with our info. If for whatever reason they take it down then we can always start are own server then.

[Alot]

Alright, send them a PM. But first, how many slots do you think we would require?

Yes, that's true. If they ever decide that it's not worth keeping the servers up we can always go back to C3 (or another VOIP)

Alot, on 19 August 2012 - 11:48 AM, said:

Well, If it's free. I would go with 20. Just to be safe.

BTW, they ask the IGN of our guild leader.. Should I give my name? Or yours (Alot)?
You're going to lead the guild so I guess I'll give them your name?

EDIT: I gave them the name Alot as IGN of the guild leader

This is the message I sent them.

Dear Khalija,

First of all, I would like to thank you (and the other staff members) for being so kind to put up Private Mumble servers.

Me, and a few other forum members have been busy trying to get a guild together before the game actually comes out and it would be great to have a Mumble server that we can use.
We were delighted to read the message that was posted by you yesterday.

Here is all the information that you require from us:

Guild Name: Blood and Guru
IGN of our Guild Leader: Alot
My email address: (I don't want to post this openly, I gave it to them though)
Guild website: none (yet)
Server password: bloodandgore (our guild name is a reference to this term)
User slots: To be safe and if it's possible, we would like to have 20 slots.

If you need any additional information about us or the guild itself, we'll be happy to give it to you so please let us know.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely,

Rennok.

Looks good. 1 small thing tho .

We signed for 20 slots? While we have 27 members so far?

Yes, but from experience I can say that people only come online during events and that will probably be 5-10 persons.
There will never be a moment when every guild member is online I think.

I can of course edit the message but how many slots would you like to have?

I think 20 will do fine once the GW2 fever has settled . But on the first days I expect a high playerbase for Mumble. But just leave it at 20

I won't be online much as well since I am on the Mumble of my other guild.

I edited the message and I asked them to give us 35 spots. But it's a guild only mumble channel so I don't think there will be 20 people online at once. Let alone 35 people. So I guess we'll be alright one way or another. I'll let you guys know when I receive a reply.

[Rennok]

So, because the GW2Guru crew is so nice they hooked us up with a Mumble server of our own

Server address: mumble.irexistus.com
Server port: 64763
Server password: bloodandgore

It's a 35 slot server and I also asked if it's possible if we had to upgrade it to a higher amount of slots and they said it shouldn't be a problem in the future.

So if we need more spots, we can get them.

Feel free to connect to the server and register yourself in our server as well to become a full member of the server.

You can do this by right clicking your own name in the tree and then click register.

We'll have to discuss what channels and sub-channels we want to have, to keep everything organized and so on.

[Corinus]

I'd like to join, Corinus and Corinus.

Okay so, since we switched over to mumble instead of C3, I decided to make a small tutorial for Mumble as well to avoid problems.

Our server info is:

Server address: mumble.irexistus.com                          
Server port: 64763                  
Server password: bloodandgore

To set up mumble:

Step 1: Go to mumble.sourceforge.net


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!

I hope to see you on our server soon!


To Alot: You can add this code to the original post to add the tutorial there.

I was also thinking that it could be better when we start the invites to

Yes, those channels are for dungeons as well.

I made an admin channel. For those that will manage the mumble server.
I'll make a guild officer channel as well. You'll only get entry when you're actually guild officer. Otherwise access will be denied.
