Helllooooooo people
Hello there folks, I thought I should take the time to step up and say hello to the guild. My life has been hectic as hell, for those who are unaware my wife recently gave birth to my second child Marcus Joseph Abraham. He is a screaming smelly ball of puke, but babies, you cant help but luv um.
In the world of online gaming things are ticking along. Dark age of Camelot was released, and our very own Yume has been spending some time killing badly animated pigs and levelling up, my impressions of the game are healthy, it is bug free, and when it hits the UK I may well buy a copy.
Anarchy Online is ticking over, Funcom have announced the 12.8 magical mystical patch that will be the saviour of all mankind, it includes a end to pvp madness a high level game, unique items on unique MOBs, a end to mission running but working team missions and far superior experience gain from MOBs. In short Funcom seem to be fixing the game.
They have recently hired Savant, and I managed to interview him (on behalf of AO Basher, the people insane enough to provide me with a soap box). For those who are unaware Savant is a LTM writer, turned sell out, who is a nice guy, the customer service side of things should pick up. Make sure you head by AO Basher to have a read, I am also in the process of publishing an interview with Enno one of Anarchy Online's most respected developer, again essential reading for any one at all interested in the game.
Ultima Online has had a few changes, as well as new plot (so I am told) and some new content. I look back at UO and remember it fondly, the game has set the standard for online games, unfortunately the general attitude of the community has not changed, and the pvp "dudes" are still delinquent kids, take a look at our forums just to see "who r00x00rs who" I unfortunately have no time for that any more =(
I was pleased to see that our new IRC room was very active, but it was full of faces that I just did not know, I was not being rude when I left, it was just like being a party full of strangers. I feel like the granddad sat at the back looking at the children with a fond smile, I am pleased those left are still keeping the guild alive, and I am proud of the guild for being able to do that, I am still here, I am watching, and I am sure we will meet again soon.

No, we are not dead ^^
TC has been in lots of different directions the past week or so. As Dorijan returned from the army for a bit, we made a guild called 292 on Drachs, and rocked for a bit with him.
