Same Crit Different Day is Recruiting

As a guild, we want…

to have fun ffs

to have a friendly community where everyone is treated with respect and fairness

to be damn good at what we do

to maintain our server-wide reputation for kindness, courtesy, and good old-fashioned arse kicking.

We promise…

to organise and fill raids in an equitable and timely manner

to recruit people, not specs, while also being sensible about guild and raid balance

to have fair, transparent loot policies.

In return, we expect…

a team-based approach to the game: When you have to make a choice, think of how it benefits the team, not only when it comes to loot and items, but also when it comes to your actions and attitude.

a mature approach to the guild: Communicate, be honest, and be excellent to one another.

your best damn behaviour: We’re here to succeed and to have fun, not to put up with rudeness, bigotry, or other asshattery.

This is not about political correctness gone mad.

This is not about nobody having a sense of humour.

This is not about censorship. 3 This reflects the fact that our guild encompasses a diverse range of people, and being a dick isn’t big, cool, or clever.

And if you want to call me a carebear for that, then I don’t give a damn.

[Officer][Ialdir]: You know, if he had that axe, he’d be the best geared tank on the server

[Officer][Heurodis]: I pugged w/ this guy once. he was an arrogant tosser like the rest of Anni

[Officer][Ialdir]: Yeah but you say that about everyone you pug with.

[Officer][Heurodis]: No I dont. sometimes I say they’re shite

[Officer][Morag]: Not worried about his skillz, just his attitude.

[Officer][Heurodis]: What do you expect??? Hes 19

[Officer][Solace]: Um, I’m 19

[Officer][Ialdir]: Omg, /gkick Solace

[Officer][Morag]: Guild policy is 16+ so let’s make this about his app not his age

[Officer][Ialdir]: I say we give him a chance. Unless he’s an epic dick, we’d be mad to turn down a good tank

[Officer][Morag]: He pretty much admitted he ragequit his last guild over loot drama. I’m not sure that’s a good sign

[Officer][Heurodis]: FWIW if I lost a good drop to someone’s offspec Id be pretty fucking pissed. Specially if it was the healer.

[Officer][Solace]: Healers are people too.

[Officer][Ialdir]: Bjorn’s healerist. 7

[Officer][Heurodis]: Hey, some of my best friends are healers

[Officer][Ialdir]: I rolled a healer once. I was young. I was just playing around.

[Officer][Solace]: And it was just a phase you were going through

[Officer][Heurodis]: lol

[Officer][Ialdir]: lol

[Officer][Morag]: Can we actually make a decision? I’m getting my nails done in 20.

[Officer][Ialdir]: scroll up, already said yes

[Officer][Heurodis]: yeah go on then.

[Officer][Morag]: Sol?

[Officer][Solace]: His app was okay, he obviously knows what he’s doing, I say we take him.

[Officer][Morag]: You’ve talked me round. Let’s take him. We can always kick him again if he’s an arsewipe. Lemme whisper him.

To [Orcarella]: Hi Ella, got a moment to talk?

[Orcarella] whispers: sec

To [Orcarella]: kk

[Orcarella] whispers: Soz, was just pugging BL. Healer kept dying on Tolvus the Arachnomancer cos he kept standing on the webs

To [Orcarella]: If the healer dies, its the tanks fault

[Orcarella] whispers: you can’t taunt fire

To [Orcarella]: lol anyhoo, still up for joining SCDD?

[Orcarella] whispers: y

[Guild][Jargogle]: Didn’t you used to run with Anni?

[Guild][Orcarella]: I um kinda ragequit

[Guild][Orcarella]: I think I just wasn’t enjoying that sort of raiding anymore

[Guild][Orcarella]: and it was making me into somebody I didn’t like

[Guild][Heurodis]: thats where you’re going wrong. I try to be someone other people don’t like

[Guild][Jargogle]: so you’re slumming with us now?

[Guild][Solace]: I don’t think that’s fair, Magda.

[Guild][Jargogle] 9 : I’m just asking the question

[Guild][Orcarella]: no, its cool. I looked into it and you guys are the most progressed casual guild on the server

The Guild Message of the day is now: Welcome to the most progressed casual guild on the server!!

[Guild][Orcarella]: I think i’ll just STFU

[Guild][Solace]: We’re just teasing you. It’s how we show we care.

[Guild][Orcarella]: cool, anybody up for a random heroic?

[Guild][Heurodis]: I’m maxed out for the day, and it’s not even noon. Bow before Bjorn, king of grinding

[Guild][Orcarella]: *bows*

[Guild][Morag]: Don’t. It only encourages him.

The Guild Message of the day is now: Welcome to the most progressed casual guild on the server!! New guild rule: don’t encourage Bjorn.

[Guild][Morag]: Anyhoo, gtg, my nails need me

[Guild][Solace]: I’m up for that hc

Drew grabbed a Dr Pepper from the minifridge he technically wasn’t supposed to have in his room, sent a couple of invites to his new guildies, and fired up the random dungeon finder.

[Group][Ialdir]: Please not Steamworks, please not steamworks

A loading screen popped up. Drew recognised it straightaway as the Steamworks Furnace. And then he found himself standing in a long grey-brown hallway, metal rivets in the walls and a pair of equally grey-brown, metal-riveted golems waiting patiently to be pwned.

A severe-looking high elf with long golden hair drawn into a topknot appeared in the corridor.

He was tricked out in ornate brown and green leather with gold scrollwork, tangles of briars running down his arms and across his huge shoulder pads.

Almost a complete set of Tier 14. Nice. And he was wielding that damn bow from Vilicus.

[Group][Ialdir]: FML

An orcish assassin wearing a cobbled-together set of black leathers from the last patch spawned next.

[Group][Ialdir]: Yo

[Group][Orcarella]: hey

The assassin, obviously staying true to his mysterious profession, said nothing.
