5th DDO Anniversary

Hi guys,

I'm planning to spend a lot of time farming lootz in the special event - see details here. :) Some interesting epic items to be obtained. I'd love to do as much as possible of it with guild. Don't miss this and come online for the anniversary, running through Thursday through Tuesday.

See you there. :)

New member, more guild runs

Hi guys,

We have a new member, Temro. He hails from Germany and has returned to DDO after a lengthy break (2 years and a half). He previously played on Keeper.He has a level 11 rogue at the moment and is waiting for his old EU character to be transfered from Ghallanda. Be nice to him and invite him to groups if you're questing in his level range. :) I've added him to the guild roster and updated the whole thing a bit.
Also I've been trying to organize more guild runs,  mostly Shrouds and SoS + prequests as that's what I need on my characters the most at the moment. Watch the calendar.

Chronoscope Sunday 8PM CET / 7 UK, lvl 6-9 + Cursed Crypt runs this weekend

Hi peeps, just letting you know that we've been talking about a guild Chronoscope raid. It's the new level 6 lowbie raid and since quite a few people seem to have characters in this range at the moment, I thought it would be nice to have a go with at-level toons. We don't have a time but I'll see if I can arrange something this weekend.
UPDATE: We've got the time for Chronoscope now. Sunday Dec 5, 8PM CET / 7PM UK (for some reason it's showing on Monday Nov 29 on the widget on the left, for me at least). Several people have confirmed they'll try to be on.
Also Hanne is planning to run Cursed Crypt this Friday/weekend for Silver Flame/Emerald Claw necklace upgrades (no XP), ask him for details if interested. My cleric needs to upgrade her necky so I'll be happy to tag along if I'm about  when it's on.

Wed: VoD, Thu: Shroud

Hi guys,

We're gonna try to put a VoD group tonight to help Hanne get his 20th completion (at least I think it's his 20th). It's a bit of a short notice so I'm not sure how many guildies will be able to come, we'll look for more on the channels before pugging.
Also Shroud tomorrow night. See calendar.

Scheduled runs and calendar

Hi people,

We've recently had some problems with grouping that I believe are related, among other things, to the fact there are not many of us and quite a few of us are rather casual so it's hard to predict if and when we'll have enough people online. Ad-hoc grouping hasn't worked very well lately. In an attempt to improve this a little, I am going to try and organize more scheduled runs. We will continue to announce scheduled runs in the Message of the Day in game but I've also created a Google Calendar for this purpose and added a gadget linked to it to the left column in this blog. Using this gadget, even our casual members who don't log in every day will have a way to quickly check if anything is going on and when. If you see an event in the calendar, you can click it to open a bubble that contains additional information. Unfortunately the size or font in the bubble can't be customized so it doesn't really fit in, but you can click "more details" which opens the event in a separate page with all the details displayed.
If there is interest, I will give other officers access to the calendar so they can schedule and create their own entries.

Comments and suggestions are welcome ofc. :)

VON 5 elite, VON 6 hard (?), level 12-15, Thursday 8 PM UK / 9 CET

Hi guys, we want to have another go at Velah this week. We're going to do VON 5 on leet for XP and fun. I talked to a few people last night, there are several who cannot come on Tuesday and some that can't come Wednesday so it looks like we'll either be going tonight (if we happen to have enough flagged people online) or, more likely, on Thursday.
UPDATE: Let's do this on Thursday at 8 PM UK time, subject to change. Shout at me here or in guild chat if you want to come.

VON 5-6, level 10-13, Thursday Oct 21, 7:30 UK / 8:30 CET

'Nuff said!
