World of WarCraft Polycount Guild

Cricket

There's been discussion of creating a Polycount guild in WoW if everyone willing to join can agree on a realm to play on. The gist of it is that everyone should start a new character so we can all help each other out on quests and whatnot. The details are sketchy, but that's what this thread's for.

It'd also probably be a good idea to play on a normal server, seeing as how it'd be a fresh start, but that's up for discussion.

Also: Horde or Allliance?

bearkub's also generously volunteered to organize the guild if this all gets rolling.

Here's a link to a tabard builder at Curse Gaming so we can get that little detail ironed out too:

Try and decide what class you'll be playing as well so we don't end up with 20 warriors and 1 priest.

Normal Server - Horde (I think the horde areas look cooler )

dom

WoW is evil... when do we start?

rube

I'm up for it. Any type of server and faction is fine for me though I'd rather play on a pvp or rppvp server.

rube

bearkub

the word is true. you guys get stuff worked out and let me know and we will get it together. =]

Slum

this may give me a reason to reactivate my account.

Asherr

doesn't matter to me whether it's PVP/PvE or Horde/Alliance. name the server and i'll join

don't think i'll be a mage this time. as much as i like them they are too squishy.

Lee3dee

I may do priest since we'll need a healer. Or warlock.

bearkub

Can we get a server decided, at the very least, by tonight so I can get the guild charter and stuff set up?

rawkstar

i have a shaman and a rogue on Laughing skull, all my roommates are there too from terminal reality and ritual, so we have a group right there... a couple of them have some pretty high lvl guys too.

Mark Dygert

I would suggest a Normal server, you can still PvP until your fingers fall off in the Battle Grounds, or turn your flag on and run to Iron Forge. After the BG's came out PvP has its place and ganking someone outside of the BG's just feels like dirty pool most of the time.

Personally I would suggest Cenarius Alliance.

I have 4 characters on that server all 40 and above with most of the major trade skills maxed out. I also am a founding member of Liquid Courage the second largest guild on the server so we would have access to much more than just my characters.

If it does get created on Cenarius post your character names and I'll see to it that everyone gets 5 free 10 slot bags and maybe some start up coin like 1g to help things along. If you're bent of starting out fresh without help I can't say I would get much time to start a new toon on a new server. I already did that on Dark Iron, made it 45 and found out that I like Cenarius better.

bearkub

Well, Cenarius appears to be a low/medium population server and with the offer of help, it makes it that much harder to turn down. So, if there are no problems with that, Cenarius it is!

sonic

whatever you do, don't get on warsong

our queues are damn near insane! unless you really wanted to get on, because me and lots of my friends are established and some have epic'd out 60s just lookin to help out

be sure to let me know, i'd love to own with you guys

sonic

i would vote for cenarius, sounds like the best option to me

Lee3dee

free bags and money! sounds too good to be true .

bearkub

OK, it looks like we have the semi-official official set up.

Server: Cenarius
Faction: Horde

Sorry it had to be horde (SORRY VIG! =]) but we have a lot of people who haven't had a chance to play a horde character yet and would like to. If you have any major opposition to this, please post in this thread or PM me and let me know.

The guild name will be The Duckbutter Brigade. I will leave my character name here in a few hours. I am going to start as an Orc warrior.

I really hope this works out and hope to see you guys some time this week! FOR THE HORDE.

Neo_God

I'd start playing WoW again to do this, but there are two problems.
1.I'm fucking poor!
2.No time to play it, school work is bogging me down

Plus I just don't feel like being sucked into an MMO right now.

oh well

TelekineticFrog

I'll join up It would be a lot of fun to play WoW with everyone. I have several characters on the Uther server since the game first launched, but I'll gladly make a new one for this and play. Never can have enough WoW!

OK. I'm Tkfrog and my character is a lvl 8 Troll Rogue right at the moment. Kub still needs 5 of you to sign the guild charter if you haven't yet.

Lee3dee

Orc Warlock - Giante

TomDunne

Very cool, this could be fun I'll edit this post after I create a character.

rube

since shaman is the only class I haven't played yet I've started a troll shaman named Nurbie. I'm leaving tonight for the holidays though so I won't be around till after newyears.

rube

bearkub

Well, since some kind soul got in and registered Duckbutter Brigade first, I guess we will have to change the guild name. I will post it here when it is registered.

Hah, I also just made a troll shaman! Perhaps I should pick something else...

bearkub

I am going to be in Ogrimmar tonight and can get to ThunderBluff and surrounding areas quickly. My character name is Kickstomp, a Tauren Warrior. I am trying to get the 10 sigs as we speak..

Cricket

Hm. I was personally kinda hoping to get on a PvP server so I could attack/gank on sight (players the same level as me, of course, unless a lower level attacks first), but oh well. Having the PvP flag on's like sticking out your chin and inviting someone to wind up and take their best shot.

I'll be playing an Undead warlock named Dreldona.

As for the guild name, why not just Polycount? I can't even believe there's a guild named The Duckbutter Brigade.

Robert Headley

I say Polycount for the name, I wouldn't mind playing. Would be nice actually knowing people on a server.. but which server?

Robert Headley

nevermind, see above posts.

Tauren Warrior - BarakaThall

snemmy

i'll make one on there but ive already got a few characters on Archimonde with Kahlan and Asherr and our friend, so i doubt i'll spend too much time around Cenarius. but we'll see.


i'll [edit] when ive made a character i like.

Asherr

Asherr - Undead Warrior

bearkub

I will again be sitting in Ogrimmar (still need five sigs on the charter...) tonight (12/21) most of the evening. I will be sitting on the dock in the Valley of Honor fishing, most likely. After the charter is signed, I will only take people into the guild via:

email
a note in this thread
a private message via the boards.

I will not be adding people during the game for the time being. (Organizational reasons, really...)

Mark Dygert

Sounds good to me I wanted to play the horde. I have a lvl 13 Tauren Shammy - Gingus.

Just because most of my toons are on the oposite faction doesn't mean we are without help I'll see what I can do about getting some supplies to kub on Sat.

Cricket

I've thrown together some ideas for the guild tabard, some serious, some not so serious (722KB worth of images):












If you have any ideas for the tabard, go ahead and post screenshots of them.

Personally I'd want the wrench just to keep things simple, but we could also go for the gnome for the hell of it.

Lee3dee

I'm in Ogrimmar, trying to meet up with bearkub, I msged ya but u logged off. An interesting battle in the middle of town tonight between lvl 60 Horde and Alliance.



ps. Cricket....where did u get that wow HUD. Looks much better than the normal one.

Lee3dee

i like the undead bunny

JKim3

Ok. Troll rogue - Yahro

Jelmer

What about an European guild aswell, oversea scum!

animatr

Tome-undead priest. (lv.1 hehe)
This will be badass.

Cricket

It's a custom UI I put together consisting mostly of Discord Action Bars, Discord Unit Frames, Basic Experience Bar, Move Anything and Titan Panel. There's a whole gaggle of UI mods out there you can find at http://www.discordmods.com and http://ui.worldofwar.net.

Mine's wholly custom-configured, though there are prefabbed UI packages available.

eld

I'm on for an european version of the guild, there must be quite some of us here :<

Slum

Arrgh! Fine fine, you won me over. My account is activated again. I'll have to reinstall and set up my new character later tonight.

Lee3dee

sweet! another recurit. I don't know why it is, but seeing the WoW opening again and again, it really is an awesome opening!

Mark Dygert

This came up in #MD today, if you don't feel like running out and buying the game you can download the "trial" which as far as I know is the full client and the only thing making it a trail version is that you sign up for a "trial key". So if you have been thinking of giving WoW a try, now might be the time
For The Horde!

Slum

It is indeed the full client. I used to play, but I've since lost my CD's, but my account is still valid. Downloaded that client, installed the patches and I'm playing right now. Thanks vig/lee/anyone else.

Orc Warrior - Norjek

TomDunne

Undead Rogue named Falegore!

Lee3dee

I dunno about you guys, but I can never connect to that server . It always takes forever to connect.

Xenobond

shit

bearkub

The Polycount Guild lives! I have turned in the charter, thanks to all who signed, and we are good to go! If you want to be a part of the guild, just leave your character name here and I will send you an invite the next time we are logged in! FOR THE HORDE!

ElysiumGX

How do you guys communicate in WOW? do you talk? can I be Leroy Jenkins? seriously, all this organizing is about to convince me to play the game.

sonic

Imaownyu - Tauren Druid

I won't really play on it too much (got 3 chars on alliance Warsong), but I'd love to join up for some ownin

Lee3dee

Maybe we can setup a teamspeak or Ventrillo server to chat online . We had a ventrillo server when I played FFXI online.

kendo

I think i might give it a go at some point seeing as my other char is a grand marshall and all, not really much else to do with him. Undead priest perhaps can never have enough imba priests.
