[WoW] [Hooray, Death!] First Meet Plans

[digitaldiscipline]

Okay. Seems like folks are starting to trickle onto the new server [fie on your clever naming conventions, and don't be surprised if Effoaydee shows up ;-) ].

The logistics of everyone grouping from level 1 are, let's face it, impossible. To that end, we're trying to coordinate a relatively coherent approach to getting everyone together somewhere that will be non-leathal to reach alone, or in a small group.

Right now, it's looking like the scenic wastes south of Orgrimmar (Durotar, Razor Hill, Crossroads) . . . which, conveniently enough for the Undead contingent on Kalimdor, is where the zeppelin tower is.

The plan is, a week from next Thursday (10/27), we'll all try to meet up at the Gates of Orgrimmar, and everyone should be around level 8-10. If you want to get there ahead of time and chill out in Orgrimmar to build up some Rested bonus, or play the auction house, or develop tradeskills, that's fine; just try not to be above level 10.

This should allow everyone to get a feel for their new character, as well as build up a small cash reserve and earn a decent amount of faction reputation in their homeland, as well as put us in a position where we can all share the same quests.

If you notice that someone else from the group is on (I'll be posting a roster of the characters I'm aware of later this afternoon), teaming up with them is encouraged if they're in your vicinity.

I will see about setting up both an LJ community and Yahoo Group to try and facilitate conversation and discussion, at least until I can figure out something better.

If anyone has suggestions for modifications to this plan (both for gameplay or outside communication), please email me at hooray.death @ gmail.com.

Hooray, Death!

Ken was noodling around on WoW and has a level 8 Tauren warrior. (bastard) I gave him the server info you posted. Now, I asked at P/T job #2 about setting up my own cpu and using the T1...I've been told yes, this can be done, but not offically endorse. (nod, nod, wink, wink) (coming from the IT guys that play evercrack on company time)

So, I'll need to put in some work to get my undead Warlock up to level. Wish I could do it while at work, but got to build the system first :/

Well, keen.

You each have your own copies of the game, or will you be a one-box household?

Honestly, it's not going to be hard to be around level 10 in two weeks. The hard part will not be shooting into the teens by that point [thus, you may want to play around with an alternate character on a different server so as not to inadvertently get ahead of yourself with your HD character]

Just got the one copy and loaded it up on the one computer at home. It's why I want to build a small portable CPU to take with me to work - but we *may* have to get 2 accounts. It just depends if we would ever want to play at the same time. At this point, I just need to get a good small tower - I kind of like the one's that have the handles on them - and then upgrade the motherboard on the main computer and get whatever else I need to get myself going :)

shuttle's SFF pc's are really nice - they include everything onboard except video - so you just need to drop in an optical drive, hard disk, ram, cpu, and video card.
