[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!

I set up one character right now - as Nahash. She's an undead Warlock. I've been drooling over this game for some time, but just haven't had the money or time to put into it. Not that I have abundant amount of time, but if I can play while at work, then :) I'd be happy with that. I'm sure I'll have the learning curve of doing an online RPG - but I've been doing paper and pencil RPGs for 20 years. If I can get on (even briefly) before Monday, I'll let either you or Rafe know.

No problem - as detailed elsewhere, there's no incentive to rush your HD character. if you want to learn on an alt, or whatever, that's cool. we've both got higher-level or endgame characters on Lothar (i'm on alliance, she's on horde - many of the other Deathies are also over there) that get the bulk of our playtime.

And I'd be pretty willing to say that either of our main groups would welcome you, depending on if you wanted to play Alliance (Rafe) or Horde. (me)

You don't have to be on for me to mail ya stuff, but you do have to run through the intro "movie" and actually log to the server after creation before you become active in the mail system so I can send things. That's all I'd need. :)
