Guild Events

We did our first guild event yesterday, it was a lottery and i hope we had a good time. While we have a great leaders and officers that know what to do with guild missions/wvw events i will try to focus on more social/fun events for everyone in guild. I'll post info about incoming events post in this topic. You can use it of course to share your opinion about them and give me some advices as well. Currently i am thinking about two new guild events, it will be our leaders decision for what goes gold we'll earn by doing it, due to fact we don't have guild taxes and our bank is nearly that empty as mine ;D.

Ancient Bones for Gehraz Orrian event!

Player who send him biggest amount of Ancient Bones till Sunday 15 GMT will get special reward. Help your guildmate and win the prize, people say it could be even full stack of potatoes, so you can't miss this!

I really loved your lottery yesterday Aziff. Not only was it very sweet idea to help Titus, but also a funny little event.
However I don't like you to have all expenses by your own on such events. But we don't have any economy in guild as we don't ask for taxes.
If I have money I don't mind helping, but mostly I'm broke as I never farm.

And I agree, these events are very important for the guild.

Will you continue do the temple events in the weekend? I know these are very popular. Maybe have a permanent timer you do it each weekend?

We have WvW in Saturday, so the only left term for them are now sunday mornings. I'll try to do them regularly about 10:00 GMT+2 as usual.

Also luved the lottery, was good idea Aziff, great way to help out ppl that need.
In the future maybe have a ingame "screenshot" contest, or maybe a "banner contest" for the forum/website.Just sum ideas.

agreed ^^^^

I have also been thinking about other small events we could do. nothing solid yet but i will post it here when i get it fleshed out.

Can't believe I missed out on lottery. All of these guild activities sound like so much fun but since I'm in a different time zone I can only play for what is your evening, nights, and mornings. I'd love if any of these events could be held in a convenient time. I don't want everything to be at the middle of the night but these activities sound like so much fun but I miss out on so much! I'd be extremely interested in taking part in everything but all are so late or too early.

Looking forward to participating if possible!

First post updated o/

Nice idea a hide and seek event .

Love the idea of a hide and seek event. However i would change the entry fee to enter future events to 50 silver. This makes it easier for everyone to join in even if they dont farm as much gold as others. Typically i gain around 25 silver per day ( i know that that is nothing).

Also i would like to suggest the idea for a picture hunt. Simple idea really. I go out and take a screenshot of a certain location and post it on the forums. first one to either replicate the picture or tell its exact location wins. You can ad more pictures to have more winners or scale them in difficulty to find (easy, medium, hard).

Another thing is jumping puzzles. I think we shouldnt limit ourselves to just doing the EB puzzle. including other puzzles could be fun and keeps things fresh.

Sounds like a good idea.
This will keep the forum activity high, and if you have the good awnser you can post a screemshot of a location.

Tnx for you opinion Drago, i was thinking about something similar with this picture hunt, i like that idea (jumping puzzle challenge too as well).

About entry fee - all gold we earn thanks to it will go always for some charity/guild investition, while all rewards i am preparing by myself. We are a "small" guild, so i think 1g is quite fair for all, but if more people thinks the same i see no problem with decrease it. You don't need to farm gold - one single ori/omnom run with this map wouldn't take too much time and you can get much more than 1g by doing it once. But as i said, if fee is too high i can set it much lower next time.

Hide and Seek was great, ty for all who joined! I picked up few days ago really hardcore hideout, where you need to glitch through walls so i changed it, but didn't expected you're so good - next time CHARRS ARE NOT ALLOWED LOL.

...thx for event Aziff and all guild mates who helped me,thank you all ...now i`m closer to the Dusk

Sorry i couldnt hav been there for the hide and seek, was feeling realy sick today, glad it went well

Ok, so i've been asked to organise a guild event (so Aziff can earn some money again ). I was thinking about this saturday at roughly 16 GMT. We'll do the Molten Facility dungeon in several teams. Since you need teams im gonna but a cap on it unless im sure ill get a full team. Ill make teams of 5 (maybe 4 if ppl can do it). The winning team goes on to the next round. There we'll do either a roll or a JP for the prizes (vote on this pls). Everyone of the winning team will get a good prize but the 1st better than 2nd and so forth. Entry is 1g. Ill put together the teams so no uberteams get formed.

Liking the idea or rather something else cause of the possible teamhindrance?

If you like, pls vote on Random roll or JP?

I think the random roll is better because if we need to do a JP after, it's getting a little complicated

Cmon, we need more ppl. We have two teams so far but i would like some more ppl to join.

Random roll

if you rly cant make it, you can still donate some cash to the charity
