Legends: Kicked. Inquisition: Grew wary of the game and decided to take a break, this was roughly one year before TBC came out.

3. Why do you want to join TFB?

I've always loved raiding and enjoy seeing high end content. A RL friend inspired me to come back to WoW and play on this server, and after having been kicked from Legends, I'm looking for a higher end guild that's more hardcore.

There's no fun without said humor.

I don't know anyone in TFB.

Of course.

I'm in the Mountain time zone and get off from work mostly at 6pm and use most of my free time to play.

Cable.

Section 3: Misc.
---------------------

1. If Astraeus (our raid leader) was to wrongfully chew you out in the middle of a raid, how would you react? (be honest)

I'd express myself in tells, if appropriate. Everyone makes mistakes. Otherwise, I'd bottle it all up over time Ned Flanders style and then go postal.

2. If you were asked to sit out for a raid that you signed up for well in advance, how would you react?

Class needs are class needs, but if 25 druids sign up for a raid, they can all go.

3. Are you familiar with the "Zero-Sum" DKP system of loot distribution?

Yep, I used to run one.

4. What do you think of Enst's PvP movies?

Never seen them.

5. Do you feel Greengoo is an arrogant bastard?

I reserve judgement until a later date.

6. Do you believe that "Mad Max", "Waterworld", "Terminator 2" and other such films represent an accurate portrayal of what a post-apacolyptic world might be like?

Maybe. I, for one, welcome our cybernetic overlords.

7. Is there anything else you want to say?

I consider myself to be pretty hardcore. I was an officer in Inquisition, my pre TBC guild on Thunderlord, and ran the DKP system and website. I've been back for about a month and a half, and I really love the Burning Crusade. I'm also a sucker for perfection and completeness, so I've been trying really hard to get all the rare Alchemy recipes (which I think I've done a pretty good job at, so far), among other things.

Thanks for taking the time to read my application!

Reise, Reise Seemann Reise
Jeder tut's auf seine Weise
Der eine stößt den Speer zum Mann
Der andere zum Fische dann

Ironically I was listening to the song when I read this

Anyways. It's nice to see an app that didn't get put together in 2 minutes. Your gear is nice, and you seem to have a positive attitude. What's your experience like raiding? And are you willing to go the extra half hour if we wipe on a boss at 5%?

What's your experience like raiding? And are you willing to go the extra half hour if we wipe on a boss at 5%?

As far as raiding goes, I was an officer/raid leader in my previous guild on Thunderlord. We were the top guild on the server and had everything pre AQ on farm status (I quit about a month or two before AQ was opened because of boredom.) I'm a die hard raider and of course I'd stay extra if we're close to killing something. =)

[Eynon]

Thanks for the app.

Our main raid days are Sun, Mon, Tue and Thurs. Would you feel comfortable saying you'll be able to make 3/4 raids per week?

EDIT: Do you get off work at 6pm MST or EST? We usually form our group around 6:30ish and start trash pulling at 7:00.

[Reise]

All times are Mountain:
Sunday: 8:30am - 6pm
Monday: 10:30am - 8pm
Tuesday: 8:30am - 4pm
Wednesday 10:30am - 6pm
Thursday: Off
Friday: Off
Saturday: 8:30am - 6pm


That's my normal schedule. =)

[Reise]

I can certainly make the raids, although I may be a little late to a couple. =/ I am usually on and ready to play about 15 minutes after I get off of work.

[Babbage]

Your sly Simpsons reference is impressive.

We just accepted a paladin named Rais so the name similarity may get confusing. Your new name is Archie.

[Eagleclaw]

Reise -> Rye-ze
Rais-> Ray-ze

The way I see it anyways

[Reise]

Actually it's pronounced Reese

[Eynon]

Like the dude from Terminator?

[Smogg]

I shall call you Gungafuf: Lord of the Chicken Dance... But I don't actually play the wow anymore so this won't be a problem.

[Eynon]

Doesn't stop us from taking your advice though Smogg. You should see the statue of you that we made in-game.

We modeled it after this:

[Reise]

Not sure?

[Eagleclaw]

NO! IT'S RYE-ZE!

[Indira]

no its Archie

[Babbage]

ARCHIE

[Bloodboiler]

ARCHIE
.

[greengoo]

I decree that babbages decree shall stand.

[Babbage]

In light of recent events, and the scandal and investigation surrounding me at the moment, I would like to withdraw my proposal and will not pursue the matter further. The name Reise will have to stand.

[Indira]

ARCHIE

[Hoenizzle]

do you like hamburgers?

[Dief]

Raid Sunday and Monday both will be Vashj.

Tuesday the farm cycle begins again.

Be online and hop in the raid if you don't get a spot shit happens keep trying. We will give you a chance for sure.

[Smogg]

Can we compromise with Jughead?

[Dief]

Accepted under two potential scenarios:

1. Work schedule is changeable after talking to boss and will be a primary raider offering three days a week.

2. The schedule change fails and will be a casual PVP'er / 5man'er ... This will keep recruitment open for a priest.

This will also be decided very shortly.

Welcome!
