Guild Wars 2 Guild organization thread.

Entered my info as well. Let's beat things up and solve everything with violence.

Any chance I can get an invite as well?

If you put yourself on the list, you'll get an invite.

Well said, fellow American.

So I'm debating about what my next character's name should be:

Zappa the Zealot - human or Charr guardian

Zappa Bookah Blasta - asura engineer

Missed this thread when the head start began, so I am playing on Ehmry Bay at the moment. As soon as it will let me I will transfer over, but in the mean time allow me the opportunity to represent GWJ. I have filled out the spreadsheet. Thanks.

I've gone into WvW twice so far. The first time it was about a 20-30 minute wait. Last night it was about 3 hours, I think... but oh man, it's such a really interesting approach to PVP -- and for someone who hasn't particularly enjoyed PVP (in WoW, etc), this was a ton of fun.

I'm in almost every day and average WvW queue time for me seems to be about two hours. I generally just queue up immediately upon logging in, and by the time it's my turn I'm typically just getting ready to log out. I think it's an ingenious means to get people to play longer.

I dunno - 2 hour waits are a bit much IMHO. They need to figure out a way to only match high pop servers with each other.

Quick question - is there a separate Vent or Mumble server where everyone is at? I logged on to the GWJ Vent server and it was empty.

OK, I'm in. Not sure how frequestly I'll drop in, but when I do it'll be good to hang out with y'all.

I'm Moggy.3729 in game. I've updated the Google Doc.

Hopefully, I'll be able to get in and on the server soon!

Have sent in my information; am already part of another guild on Crystal Desert (with a bunch of fellow writers at The Border House), but would be happy to have one of my alts represent and chat with y'all.

They will be matching servers up by rank in WvW. The match ups will change every 2 weeks. Since this is the 1st week the game has been out they had no way to match us up to similar ranking servers.

I have been on the vent server just about every time I have been logged in. There is always a couple people on when I am playing. I guess it depends on what time you are playing.

Invites as of right now - I sent a PM to one person for whom I need updated info.

Odd. I was in the guild but for some reason I'm not now.

edit: guess it was just bugged

Yeah, there were definitely a handful of people on last night. You must've logged in at a bad time.

Xabulon, you need to add the 4-digit number at the end of your account name so we can send you an invite.

Woohoo, just entered my info. I look forward to playing with all of you again!

So Northern Shiverpeaks is shown as full with the only available servers being 3 "high" ones. Walk me through this, how do I get to play with GWJers? Do I create my characters on one of those three and then transfer for free or will I have to play there until NShiverpeaks isn't full anymore and then dish out $ to switch servers?

I'm on the spreadsheet
Will transfer to Northern Shiverpeaks at errrr... some point.
May try guesting first as I'm in the UK and my internet connection isn't exactly stellar.

Option #1 seems to work for others. Give that a try.
Register on another server then try to transfer.

That last few times they increased the server caps all at once when they all became full. Just pick a server to play on for now and check back at the login screen today and tomorrow to see when it is not full. Transfers should be free at least until tomorrow.

You can still join the guild no matter what server you are on and once the free transfers are over you will be able to guest over to our server.

I was on for about three hours yesterday and couldn't get in. I tried the Borders of Northern Shiverpeaks (or something like that) Should I have tried a different map?

Which WvW map are people generally trying to get into?

I would Like to join this guild. My name in the game is Sophie Lone. Please add me to the guild. Thanks

Member for 36 minutes?

Someone make a character on the damned RP server. It's rather slow earning 500 points on one character, lol.

Honestly doesn't matter. Game releases tend to draw people who just lurked previously into registering for an account.

That said, steven, we need your id+4 digit code to invite you, not a character name.

Since guild buildings/bonuses built on one server don't benefit people on another, how does everyone feel about making goodjers on servers have the ability to build up their own guild? Arovin would need to make a new rank that has permission to do that, unless we want them all to have full officer powers.

James_E, you need to post your account name plus 4-digit number, so we can invite you.

That seems fine, I'll create the new rank but we will need a list for those to add to it.

Just put in an invite request and will try to transfer later today/this weekend.
