You named your kids Yoda and 4-LOM too?

Fools!

It is clearly Ponda Baba and Doctor Cornelius Evazan. (Talk about pressure to get a Doctorate or MD though)

LOL, I'll leave it open for speculation, or for Vets to reveal when he feels inspired. It's much funnier that way.

1. What is your name? Eric (Doomaus server name)


2. What is your attraction to the Church of Alvis? search many guilds on Juyo server and yours was the most informative and organized. I am a geared out lv50 Trooper Gunnery DPS, completed all, that I can, datacons 61/67 along with the +10 achievement. have run a majority of all the Hard Modes along with the first boss killed in Ops


3. Please describe in detail your favorite gaming moment. This should be a good story not just a one liner like "I beat Mario, the credits rolled. It was awesome." I would have to say that many games I have played (Vanguard / Rift / EQ2 / Ultima / Dungeon Dragons Online / Conan and the list goes on and on..was an officer of guild leader of top raid guilds that spent the grind of hours upon hours of wipes and the learning curve to be the server firsts in a majority of the raids that we did and I would like to be a part of that in SWTOR.

First I want to say welcome to the church. We feel like we have something special here and hope you like what you find.

Second I want to take a moment to comment on your answer to question three just to be clear at the outset. We do have a plan to raid. Furiel can comment more in depth to his plans on that in specific. But I don't want to have mixed expectations here in regards to server firsts. At this point we do plan on seeing all the content, and hope to do so while it is relevant in regards to what is available, but I don't think we have decided on whether we have the roster needed to be a server first kind of guild. That said if you are fine with that speed of progression and the discussions about it, that is great. My main concern is that you don't have unrealistic expectations at the outset.

If we need to spin this discussion out into its own thread, we can do that.

Well i found you guys tru the forums in swtor and when i saw jimer was in here i know this could be a good place for me

3. Please describe in detail your favorite gaming moment. This should be a good story not just a one liner like "I beat Mario, the credits rolled. It was awesome."

I have some good ones from eve one of my favorits hapened some time ago.
I wasn't realy involved in the fight cause i was killed a litle earlier and was geting a new ship, so we had 3 people camping a gate in 0.0
When someone says ragnarok on scan. Another persone says, What's a raganrok? word was said to get clear but the persone that asked said i'm safe i'm in a interceptor before he could finish that he said i'm down .
Now to put you guys in prespective Ragnarok is a titan class ship the bigest ships type in eve interceptor is one of the smalest ship types and when this hapened the titan class had a aoe atack that would kill anything but capital ships so know the names of ships in eve is important.

I also have one or two with jimer skull...or that time he got a fleet lost, not kiled, going to the wrong side of what the fleet need to go...

What is your name?

Balgo Spire (Balgosa Windspire)

2. What is your attraction to the Church of Alvis?

I share the same beliefs of hawtpants wearing and dancing vicariously in the street that many of the members do. Sure, I may do it with boots and gloves on and my luxurious red mullet swaying in the wind, but it's still in the spirit I'd say.

3. Please describe in detail your favorite gaming moment. This should be a good story not just a one liner like "I beat Mario, the credits rolled. It was awesome."

My favorite moment in gaming has to be with The Old Republic. Logging into the first day of early access, creating Balgo and then watching the famous Star Wars text crawl that I created start up. Knowing that millions of other people were getting to see that as their first experience in the game and that I made it was the most humbling thing in the world to a big Star Wars fan like me. :stormtrooper:

One of the Cardinals, or our fearless leader Archbishop Blackferne, should be by shortly to officially welcome you. In the meantime...

Go watch the Sealab 2021 episode The Feast of Alvis. You will be quizzed.

Maybe. :shifty:

1. What is your name?

My main is Cuth , but in the real they call me Tyler

2. What is your attraction to the Church of Alvis?

Wandering as I sometimes do through the forums on the TOR website, I came across a list of republic guilds for our server. Looking for a pvp centric guild that was less about being UBER!!!1 and more about having fun, I followed the link to this site.

Had a good chuckle reading through some threads, got a bit of outrage reading about the blockade of the radio show and loved the rivalry with Unrepentant.

Also, the seeming pro-booze anti-pants sentiment mirrors my own life.

In short, i've played alot of games, but missed my old WoW guild from many years ago of which you remind me. The kind of attitude you guys seem to have is exactly the kind of game I want to play.

3. Please describe in detail your favorite gaming moment. This should be a good story not just a one liner like "I beat Mario, the credits rolled. It was awesome."

So...Many...Games.

Okay, Ghost recon at a LAN. Never really suited to stealthy shooters, those kind of games I tend to twitch and run and gun. Anyway, I get shot and crippled in a co-op mission where I have to defend a house from AI terrorists. My two buddies make fun of me and leave me as the last line of defense for the house in a tiny shrub out front. They promptly die and i'm left to hold the house by myself from waves of angry compu-drones for about 6 minutes.

Twitch and adrenaline carried the day, I don't think I blinked more than twice. Top of my game, in the zone as I shot down every evil do-er in sight. House saved, though upon reflection, my digital hero probably bled out from his wounds shortly after. His horrible fate forgotten as the end of sessions stats rolled, I leapt up wildly and cheered, shaming my friends with my brilliance.

At least thats what I tell myself at night. :rave:

Hello Cuth!

Find one of us and we can get you tagged as an altarsquid (like probatinary member in most guilds). I do want to clarify something though because there might be a misperception about who we are and I want to clarify it before you join up and get a better idea later. I would not describe us as PvP-centric. We have some people who PvP a lot so you will find people to do PvP with if that is your thing. And we do have light hearted PVP events from time to time with Unrepentant and Archaic, but that is about where we stand on that. We do a lot of things so "social sampler platter"-centric may be more appropriate as we have raiders, pvpers, crafters, and socialites all in this guild and we let most people do their thing. If that sounds like something you want to be a part of, welcome aboard find us in game and we can get you tagged. If you are looking for something else, we understand. I just wanted to be upfront first.

I enjoy most aspects of the game, and what I get up to will change depending on mood and such on, but I do enjoy PVP and will likely be doing alot of that.

Pretty much what it boils down to is a enjoy grouping, whether it be for PVP or flashpoints or just questing. Even just shooting the breeze on Vent or guild chat. So if anybody needs a hand with anything and I can help, Let me know and if I can, I will.

Hopefully be on later tonight to stalk around for that invite

1. What is your name?
The names Staris though my main on Juyo is Starel.

2. What is your attraction to the Church of Alvis?
I have been playing from the beginning but the friends I had hoped to play with on the west cost never got back to me so have been looking to join a server I could more actively be involved with.

Been a long time listener to SI Radio so been listing to The Nar Shaddaa Lounge since about the beginning so the Juyo server jumped to the top of that list in part because of what I've heard the guild had been doing from the show.

3. Please describe in detail your favorite gaming moment. This should be a good story not just a one liner like "I beat Mario, the credits rolled. It was awesome."
On Matrix Online playing on the Recursion server and after being discipled by Vin and geared as an assassin during the last renegade military soldiers event where most 50's that I was aware of where having problems double teaming the suped up soldiers. Where I was having no difficulty going toe to toe such that if I didn't go on the attack the best the ai could accomplish was tieing on both taking minimal damage. As for myself, my only constraint was the rate I was burning IS as I was taking down the soldiers having to rest as long as I dared in between about every other soldier killed before jumping back into the fray to help my allies and kept that up until the force was destroyed and the area completely cleared.
