Hello Alvis Types!

Post by Romily » Tue Jun 12, 2012 1:07 pm

Hey and all that.

So I'm not entirely sure what all is supposed to go in this thread, but here it is. I have this sage - Joscelin - who would like to get in on the occasional raid when she's big enough (she's currently approximately 47). Snark has a pretty rigid no-alt policy. I'd also like to raid a bit more than what we currently do (Friday, Saturday. They may add Tuesday, but I'm not available on Tuesdays.) And I'm kinda fond of your raid leader ( :t_angel:) So I thought I might see if I couldn't move Joss over here. Cause you know, I've raided with you guys a bunch, I think we do alright together. You're a ridiculous bunch of wackos and that's what makes it so much fun to tag along.

What you'd be getting: A DPS TK Sage with a healing offspec. Possibly could someday flip to be a healing sage with a dps offspec. Depends how much I like dps. Monday and Wednesday night ability, should be pretty regular. Saturdays only if I'm sat from Snark's raid. Romily would still be my main, but I would be gearing/playing Joss as a raid toon so I wouldn't be asking to drag her along half assed or half geared and beyond initial new-class derp, I'd be committing to know what I was doing as much as possible.

:cheers: Lemme know what you guys think.

Derp: favorite gaming moment - from tabletop gaming - Deep in a dungeon crawl we'd been in all afternoon and most of the evening in a D&D game, we finally got to the key area. The DM was describing the creepy underground lair, nasty pools of standing water, raised crusty altar surrounded by four flaming... brassiers. (he totally meant braziers, but he SAID brassiers). CREEPY! We didn't ever let him forget the day we did a dungeon crawl to uncover the lair of FEMINISTS.

From video gaming - slightly more serious. I sucked at video games as a kid. I am so not twitchy and I'm horrid at jumping, and you know, in the SNES days a lot of games were platformers and that's not really my forte. So my brothers always kicked my ass and I felt like a moron. But then my brother got stuck on a level in Donkey Kong Country, where the key skill wasn't twitchy jumping but precisely timed rhythmic jumping - there were two ropes that each slid you downward, but by timing the jumps just right you could climb UP them to the area exit, like wall jumping, but the hardest I'd ever seen it back in those days. Well my brothers, normally the platformer heroes sucked at that mechanic, and I normally the platformer derp-queen, had to bail THEM out. It was, I think, the first time I was better at a game than they were. Good times.

Welcome aboard. I've healed with you once, it was a pleasure, and I can't wait to see how you use the force to bash baddies...


...and I wouldn't dare say no to a friend of the man that disperses raid goodies :rave:

No. He just saw that you applied, and it is simply implied by that fact.

O RLY?!? Have you met Furiel? He's the cranky old bugger that hands out apples at halloween. Delicious, needle filled apples.

Welcome to Alvis! I'm sure we have much to discuss.

How old were your brothers at the time? Like 6? That's the only way a girl would ever be better than a guy.
