We're a comically tiny guild that has, up until recently, been strictly for local and internet friends; alas, the vast majority of that membership has drifted away from the game, putting our current active membership at...like four players? And at least one of those is an alt. So, as guild leader, I've made an executive decision to throw our doors open to the caterwauling machete whirlwind that is The Public.
Some stuff:
- We are a pretty lackadaisical and chaotic guild; promotion is kind of arbitrary (one of our highest-ranking members, now inactive, got that way by bribing me with beer and smokes) but skill and decency will generally get you bumped up quickly. Your guild leader is amiable but incredibly corrupt; buying stuff for the guildhall or donating nifty gear will probably win you an early promotion too.
-- Once numbers are up a bit, I'm going to organise some sort of hilarious competition system, I reckon.
- Don't expect a regular LD team until we've got our numbers up considerably; I don't play (I'm a Blast Network man at heart).
- Type clearly. Your guild master is fickle (and typically hungover), and bad English bugs him.
- Basically if you're not a gigantic tool we'll get along fine and you should hang out with us. This means no racists, sexists, homophobes, anyone who's ever used "n00b" as a serious insult without feeling immediately ashamed of themselves &c.
Recruit status is available to literally anyone who wants it; if it later emerges that a recruit is, in fact, a gigantic tool, they'll be expelled, but meanwhile I rather like the idea of a writhing mass of fresh-faced neophytes competing for promotion. The first promotion will go the author of the funniest/most overblown origin story posted in the next..let's say five responses.
Congratulations to Uneeb, our first new recruit, drafted a mere hour after our doors were thrown open! It is only a matter of time before the Gincats spread like delicious butter across the dry white toast of Cradle, to be ultimately consumed as a low-imagination hangover cure attempt.
That metaphor kind of got away from me, I don't think it really works.
Anyway congratulations Uneeb! WHO WILL BE NEXT
