Then hook me up!

Another question, do we want to just do guild stuff through the GWJ Forums or do we want to pursue a guild web page?

Gwj forum is fine with me. I think it helps promote better cohesion/community within GWJ.

One team, one group, many games. And a more inclusive atmosphere for GWJ'rs from other games. But, I'll go with the majority opinion on that one.

I believe it would be good to maintain our own GWJ Rift vent server though.

Also, until we get so many GWJ members that we can't keep track of the 20+ sister guilds because there are too many people ... keeping the GWJ forum will be constant advertising for people to join us in the game.

It is also good to see an active community for games other than WOW (not meant in a bad way, but WOW is not for everyone and variety/diversity of games = win)

For the beta event tomorrow, is there a consensus on which server/faction people are playing on?

Well, my betas are Wolfsbane guardian ...(so far).

I have been doing Defiant on Shatterbone and another one, but since I am going to test a new build - I am open. Will stay with GWJ Forums as the "Guild" method etc... Alexicacon - what does it take to form a guild - how many players, how much gold etc...? Not sure I will be able to make it all the way to Meridian in one setting

i started a new char on Shatterbone (Defiant) named SirZoloid (justicar-druid build)

My brother is sending me a key so I'm going to test things out starting in a few days... I'll post my info then... Tagging for now.

Holla

Multiple keys posted in the threads. No need to wait.

I already used his key...and in the process got Bill Lewis and Nimcosi invited...so now we're downloading... lol its still going to be a few days... 39 hour eta currently.

We are on Shatterbone if youd like to join us.

Thats what i am playing at launch, I am currently not playing in the beta because I am in alpha and dont feel like dealing with another client. I only recommended that server because I selfishly have some RL friends who plan on rolling on that one as well.

In case any of you haven't heard, the current beta event has been extended until 10am Saturday.

Yah!!! And I'm off tomorrow!

Well, I'm a guardian. IF there are any that are also guardian side, I'd be happy to roll with you tomorrow since I'm sick.

I should have stayed away from the TankSpot Rift videos. As someone who enjoyed some of the novelties of WHO, Aion and AoC, I have gone from "meh, if it lasts longer than 3 months, I'll get a trial" to "I should try and get beta access".

Any chances there'll be more beta events or are we incredibly close to launch yet?

Launch is March 1st with early access for preorders being Feb 24th. I bet we will see at least one more beta before then.

Launch is in early March, theoretically there's time for one, maybe two more events, but nothing has been stated either way.

Edit: too slow!

I'd say it's almost a certainty.

I'd also say level caps will probably go up about considerably, but that would be pure conjecture and based solely on my own random guessing.

In the other thread there are 2 more beta events that sound intriguing in february.
