I also like the fact that this game gives you no other choice than to be INCLUSIVE. there's no kill stealing, no gathering node stealing, no loot stealing. so these catalysts that tend to set people off, are GONE!!!, there's still the idiots in world and general chat though. but, you can always block them. i plan to use that feature a LOT.

I also have my evening planned, and it has ensured that today will be the longest workday EVER!!


5:00pm
Leave work

5:15pm
Curse the MTA for being the slowest, most terrible transit system in America

5:40pm
Swing by the local market to pick up food, snacks, and energy drinks by the case

5:50pm
Meet my cocaine dealer behind the market for a quick supplemental eight-ball

5:50pm
Realize I don't actually do illicit drugs and casually laugh at this terrible joke

5:55pm
Get home, put away groceries, shower, and plop into bed

11:15pm
Wake up from my power-nap, groggily log on Vent, update the GW2 client, and start clicking the log-in button

12:00am
Profusely apologize (again) to everyone in Vent for being so jacked up on Monster and adrenaline

12am to 3am
Log in, secure three to five names I've been bandying around in my head for the past week, and delete and remake my main

3am - ??
PLAY GUILD WARS 2!!! until I literally pass out unconscious sometime tomorrow, probably drooling on my desk in the process


I think it's a solid itinerary.

I just played this mission tonight, and was really impressed with the detailed, custom environments. The mission was polished and the story was solid with interesting twists and unique aspects to the combat.

It's been a while since I've played a Foundry mission, but the environment screenshots pulled me in, and I took the time to play it :)

Highly recommended.. I'm sure you'll get some more plays as soon as the mission moves from the 'reviewer' list to the main foundry mission listing page :)

Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much! That really means a lot! ^_^ It's been so long since I've made another Foundry mission.


Anyways, I just played your mission, "Wounded Wolf", and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I left a review but ran out of space lol. Here's some other things I wanted to say on there. The environments were detailed and pretty to look at, and it was fun reading what the side characters on theose maps had to say. I thought the avoiding laser bit was pretty sweet; kind of felt like Mission Impossible haha. And the puzzles were extremely well done, especially the 3.14 puzzle.

The mission overall was a lot of fun, and I look forward to future missions you may have in store. ^_^

Unfortunately, I've been around the MMORPG block enough to know that there will be loudmouth idiots, trolls, and sexist / homophobic jackasses no matter on what server you decide to roll, and they'd be on Crystal Desert with or without the Reddit crew. My experience is that it's just part and parcel of the genre these days.

That said, I think it's great that even if the server gets population capped quickly (which is actually more my main concern right now than anything else), everyone in can still be active in the social aspects of the guild no matter what server people ultimately end up on. Sure, it would be fantastic if we all were able to end up on Crystal Desert together, obviously, but c'est la vie if it's not to be.

Let's not let it detract from all of us having fun in the game, though!!

Anet or Guru trolling?

It looks very doable. I seem to be missing the "Complain over ANet's trolling @ 2:45 a.m." portion, though?

I've updated the Vent Party Agenda.

Feel free to suggest some agenda items - especially ones related to gamer idiosyncrasies or Guild Wars 2!

I want the Russian Sturmovik, big cannons belong on fighters. :cheer:

Well, I'm currently at work, so.. I'll work til I'm done for the day.
Get groceries for the weekend
I have plans to majorly clean my apartment before launch tonight, so I'll do that
Hit the gym (since I won't be getting to that this weekend)
I'll sign on to the Ventrillo thing at 10pm
Wait til log in and save a few character names
Make my main character
Probably mess around for a bit, but then I'm heading to bed, lol
I plan to wake up again at like 8am to play more

My own take on this is that there are going to be ignoramuses no matter what server someone rolls on. I may be a bit too simplistic but, personally, if someone was giving me a hard time or being disrespectful, I'd just report them and move on with my own enjoyment of the game.

Glad to see ArenaNet has this as their first rule for Guild Wars 2:

"While playing Guild Wars 2, you must respect the rights of others and their rights to play and enjoy the Game. To this end, you may not defraud, harass, threaten, embarrass or cause distress and/or unwanted attention to other players. This includes posting insulting, offensive, or abusive comments about players, repeatedly sending unwanted messages, reporting players maliciously, attacking a player based on race, sexual orientation, religion, heritage, etc. Hate speech is not tolerated."

Hey Nick,

Any update on getting the Stonewall Fleet site back? Not that the Guild Wars side of the house hasn't been welcoming, but, I miss our old home :)

I have the xmas morning feeling - thus the earlier post at 3 am.. couldn't sleep. But that might be a good thing because I'll take a nice old man nap on the couch later today.

I bought a new chair with lumbar support at Ikea which should last me through headstart weekend before falling apart (yeah i threw in an Ikea quality jab..)

Meanwhile I bought my groceries for three days of gayming - almonds, Kashi bars, and various fruit and veggies. Although I do have a Camelback I'm gonna go traditional and use a cup :/

With all the healthy snacking - I have no guilt eating the pizza :) And cheese + ham + pineapple = delishus

Have you seen the new graphics upgrades on the in development page?

That reminds me of BF 1942, very splendid.

My plan is to try to fall asleep by 8pm tonight, so that I can wake up at 1am and start spamming the servers. Hopefully they will come up sooner, rather than later... After grabbing the names I want, I plan to go back to bed for a few hours.

Of course, that Xmas morning feeling might be too much for me, in which case I will stay up all night playing and crash midday :whistle:
