You know, I’ve never been to Steamfont! I’ll have to go check it out one of these days…

I’m going in to the game in a few mins., will probably play for a couple of hours before bed.

Heh… having not played really since I started him, ole Jophiel is still languishing at level three. Still interested, just didn’t have the time last week.

OK… I’ve registered my chars!

I’ll be playing for a little while today, but **Astrogirl** will probably kick me off later so that she can play! Heh…

We need to get the guild made… is there a time this week when we can all be online at the same time?

If we do it soon, could I request the weekend?

It would give me a chance to move my two characters off the moon and I also have time zone issues.

</div>

AFAIK we don’t have to be in the same zone to create the guild, as I THINK we need to log in to the chat server to do it. I’m still researching it though. The weekend is fine if that is when everyone can make it…

Me too, voting for the weekend, please! Me and **hersiarch** would have a much easier time getting on then…

What sort of time frame is good for you? Then we’ll see if everyone can fit into that one.

OK I finally got to create a Character, look for a female Wood Elf Warrior named **Venulia** \* killin’ Skellies, Bats and Wasps GFay.

For the guild formation thing Friday & Saturday evening after 6pm (PST) is all I have open.

\*stupid name checker would let me have ANYTHING with venus in it! ☹

I could be on anytime from Friday morning until noon on Sunday. I usually won’t play afternoon times, since that equates to the wee hours of the morning here, but for big events I’m willing to re-arrange my schedule. (I’m talking in terms of Eastern Daylight Time.)

**Astroboy** and I are currently 13 hours ahead of the East Coast. (It changes to 14 hours ahead in the fall.)

See, that’s the weird thing: I’m actually 20 years and 13 hours ahead of the east coast!:eek:

If you really want to know, I’ll give you the details of how the Union fell apart in 2011, and the Astroboy Hegemony began…

_VIVA EL PRESIDENTE!_

Refresh my memory, is a hegemony like a monarchy where the subjects have to pay tribute to the ruler by bringing him…

A SHRUBBERY?

I apologize, I’m really very sorry about that. I _tried_ to stop myself…

Ya know… when I posted that last night I used the word “hegemony” because it sounded cool… but I had to look it up tonight to see what it meant!

Hegemony: leadership or dominance, esp. that of one state or nation over others

Hm.

Well, so EQ isn’t working right now… I’m looking up vocabulary words… ☹

What time is possible? For me, any time all day is ok.

Anytime Saturday is okay with me, too.

By the way, it’s awfully lonely over at our very own guild message boards. ☹
