LOTRO
The Kinship is looking for a good time to get together to do Skirmishes, hop into the lotro Discord channel if you’re interested.
A Buried Treasure event starts February 15 and runs through the 20th, followed by a Yule Festival Encore from February 22nd through March 5th
In the LotRO store, it’s 30% off select warsteeds and mounts as well as riding skills and movement speed buffs. Also, OPENBOX gets you a free Black Steel Key until 2/15
And with that, let’s get back to Acuzod and Syreyne and find out what’s going on in WoW
GAME NEWS
Notes for WoW – Trial of Style Season 2, April Fools, and Ralff
Acuzod – There are some great events coming up in WoW over the next few months. From March 5th to March 9th, there will be a micro-holiday called Trial of Style Season 2. This is the return of the ultimate transmog tournament, where you compete against five other players to see who can create the best transmog outfit to match the challenge theme. At the end of the tournament, you win some amount of transmog tokens, based on how you placed, which can be used to buy unique transmog sets created for the event. If you are a mogger, talk to a transmog NPC in any capital city to join the tournament.
Syreyne – Also coming up in April, our very own Gustytail has set forth a challenge. She is daring you all to a Fools Rush In event. ( http://forum.myextralife.com/topic/57485-april1-fools-rush-in-challenge/ ) The idea is to play your least favorite/geared/known spec and run dungeons and raids with your fellow “fools”. Death and chaos may ensue, but there should be tons of laughs for everyone. If you haven’t figured it out by now, the event is on April Fools Day aka April 1st. We know that’s also Easter Sunday, so we are opening it up to that whole first week of April. Make sure you take plenty of screenshots and tag the guild on Twitter!
Acuzod – As you may or may not know, February 13th is our guild anniversary. It is a time to cheer for the beginning of AIE and the start of this wonderful community. It is also a time of sadness, as last year on February 17th, we lost one of our greatest members who was the epitome of what AIE is….Ralff aka Roger White.
(((pause here for a few minutes to reflect on Ralff)))
Syreyne – One of the last events Ralff wanted to do in WoW was an Amazing Race. So for Ralff and all that he did for this community, we are now hosting an annual event in his honor…Ralff’s Amazing Race!
Acuzod – The race will start in Orgrimmar on Saturday, February 17th. At 8pm server time (Eastern), we will open registrations with a shotgun start at 9pm. The event shouldn’t run more than an hour or so…..plenty of time for everyone to join NOOB raid afterwards! Just like in the real amazing race, everyone will be given the first clue at the same time. You’ll have to figure the clue out and find your hidden officer. Once you get there, you may have to do an emote or mini-challenge to receive your next clue.
Syreyne – Points are given to out for those that make it to the hidden mark. More points for first, second, or third, but everyone that gets there for the clue will receive points. There may also be bonus points earned with hidden or special mini-challenges. The top four people with the highest points win prizes! And everyone participating gets a Left Shark!!! Seriously….everyone….
Acuzod – Don’t worry about being level 110. All the locations are in Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms. Everyone is welcome to join in on the fun, but level 60 flying could give you an edge. You can compete as a pair (2 people) but you have to register that way. So if you’re under 60, grab a flying buddy and take to the skies!
Syreyne – While you can fly yourself (and a buddy!) and take flight points, please don’t use class specific cheats to hop around the world…mage portals, druid dreamway, etc. We want to make this as fair for everyone as possible. The clue givers will be keeping track of points on a spreadsheet, so once you’ve made it to the final destination, head on back to Gallywix’s to party before NOOB raid!
