AIE NEWS

Were you affected by the great ventrillo outage of 2014? It seems our service was interrupted for 24 hours! The officers were aware within an hour that it happened, but sadly there’s not much we can do to make typefrag work faster. Things are now up and running like normal! Remember, if you see something go pear shaped, let the officers know!

 

Final fantasy XIV

Free company bank update! As you know AIE in Final fantasy is saving up for a large guild house. This week Abovan was kind enough to give us an update! The guild is up to nearly 13 million! While that sounds like a lot, the house size we have our eye on is 48 million! If you want to help out just drop by any amount of gil into the Free company bank! Abo suggests hitting up the challenge log if you want to see easy money just roll in!

Star Trek Online:

Saturday the 17th, at 4:00PST/7pm EST we will gather in Vent (the Ten Forward channel) to all watch the TOS episode "Nomad". We will all sync is up on Netflix (or what ever people will watch it on) and start at the same time and then (hopefully) hilarity ensues.

 

Guild Wars

AIE Imperium Ludi

It appears the Heroes of the Storm Alpha invites have been going out hot and heavy over the last couple of weeks. Zod (the omnipotent) wants to remind everyone in AIE getting their invite that the Friends system in the Heroes Alpha is separate from the regular Blizzard friends list, so you’ll need to add your friends to Heroes separately. You’ll also want to join the AIE chat channel in game. To do so, type /join AIE in the chat window.

GAME NEWS

 

Wow busy time leading up to Summer but just because it’s getting close to vacation doesn’t mean we are taking a break.

 

Last month's Craft Faire went incredibly well.  Many thanks to Syrene and all her captains and lieutenants who helped put the whole thing on.

 

Speaking about AIE shenanigans, all hail Grimmcow who lead an epic four hour COOP run which completely and utterly decimated the Alliance.  I helped out to rally the troops and it always warms my heart to see such utter death and destruction.

 

By the way, if you are interested in running a COOP team DO EET!  Doo eet NAO!

 

So let’s see what we have to talk about.  Blizzard has been WoWing us (See what I did there)  with the new environment...
