Welcome to episode #237 of the the podcast celebrating the Alea Iacta Est gaming community, the die has ben podcast. This is Mkallah: To my left is Tetsemi: - (catch phrase here). And right over here, we have Alludra (Hey, AIE, I think you’re awesome). This week we are joined by special guests Hoots and Lanctharus who are here to talk to us about AIE in EVE. Welcome!
Ok, we’ll be digging into EVE shortly, but first, let’s cover this week’s news...
AIE News
Community
We need your guildie of the month nominations! Since the officers can't be everywhere and see everything that everyone does, Jedhai needs you guys (yes, you AIE!) to give him some nominations. There is an ongoing post in the community section of the fourms, you can also PM him as well, or send an email to
[email protected]. And, speaking of guildie of the month, congrats to our winners from July: Khatlyn and Tanaria from Final Fantasy XIV. Khatlyn and Tanaria are married in real life, and in game they are both super helpful people. To help everyone else get know our awesome guildmates better, Jedhai conducted a short interview with them, available on the guild website, AIE-guild.org.

WoW
Summer of Love is coming! We are looking to have the schedule for our annual Summer of Love soon, though due to a scheduling conflict with the tail end of Nerdtacular, we will be pushing things back by a week. But don’t worry, A COOP, a Wedding, and shenanigans are being planned. And, of course, the very important Remembrance Day!
And even though San Diego Comicon didn’t give the fans what they were dying for (Trailer!), there was a fair bit of WOW Movie News- including posters featuring both Durotan and Lothar. Wowhead and the Nerdist both have a good wrap up of the panel- plus, there has been a promise of a real preview in November, probably at Blizzcon. And, every report from SDCC has said that the footage was amazing.
SWTOR
Not related to SWTOR directly, but additional amazing news from SDCC- there was a three minute Episode 7 behinds the scene reel that was shown at Comicon and quickly put up on youtube. It MAY of driven a number of adults to tears. Seriously, if you have not seen it, go watch it now!
Are you in SWTOR and want the Cantina Speeder? Some of our generous guild mates have been kind enough to share extra codes on the forums.
