AIE News

Community

Remembrance Day, and the Summer of Love, will soon be here, albeit a little late this year. Traditionally, the Summer of Love is held during the first week of August, with Remembrance Day celebrated on August 2nd, but due scheduling conflicts (many of the guild either be at or returning from Nerdtacular), we are kicking off the Summer of Love on August 9th, with Remembrance Day. This is one of the most sacred and important events we hold each year. The event began to honor Bruce "Milliway" Galloway, an early member of AIE who passed away in 2007. He was a fan of AIE on a level that cannot be overstated, and a good friend and kind soul to all who knew him. On the day of his death we assembled and held a vigil in game. This vigil soon became our communities’ yearly tradition to honor him and every guild member who has been taken from us too early.

This year we will honor those we have lost on August 9th at 9pm Eastern, each in our own games, but together in Mumble.

Wow: The Shrine of the Fallen Hero

Eve: in B-R5RB in Immensea at the Titanomachy monument

SWTOR: Alderaan, in the Juran Mountains

Please join us for AIE’s most solemn and meaningful event.

Also planned for the Summer of Love-

Tuesday August 11th, SWTOR brings us a extra special Mandatory Love Night.

Saturday August 15th, the WoW team brings us the COOP that puts the Love back in the heart of Stormwind. http://forum.myextra...were-gonna-get

Takemikazuch- AKA Larry- is looking for help with fireworks for Remembrance day. One of the events during the service is a fireworks show in Orgrimmar at Grommash Hold. Tak has graciously been volunteered to make this happen- and as such is in need the awesomeness of the guild to help make this happen.

What he needs (besides an easier to pronounce name)

1. Launchers.He has a lot of cluster shell launchers, but no single shell launchers. If possible, if a few engineering guildies could craft some of these, that'd be swell. There is a link for the launcher in the show notes and on the forums

2. Volunteers. He’s going to need some help setting these off, and the more the awesomer. Yes I said awesomer, new word! . If anyone is interested in helping, drop him a line either via DM or on the post in the forums, hit him up in game or on Twitter @takemikazuchaie.
