I am writing this quickly before I head to work, so if I forget something already discussed, please add it!
This thread is for ideas for the guild to do. I'm going to list the ones I can remember (for now) that have been suggested, but please PLEASE add any ideas you have so we can all discuss it here!!!! Thanks!
1. Crafter Night - All farmers (and even just some killing machines) get together and farm up leather, ore, herbs, and such. The killing machines would make leather gathering so much easier... Sons of Hodir area is GREAT and so is the areas right around the starting Northrend places... animals in herds are awesome.
2. Low Level Runs - The idea is to set aside one night a week JUST to run lower level characters (alts or mains) through instances they may need. If we have more than one group level, we can spread out and help more! Some low level instances can be soloed easily by a level 80 pulling a group of lower levels, so in some cases we may not HAVE to have tanks and healers (although rezzers would be nice. hehe)
3. Chicken Run - I create a level 1 toon. As a group, we take that toon to get as many flight points as possible within a set amount of time, trying to keep that toon alive for as long as possible. We could make it really interesting and take it to Outlands to start out with. *LOL*
4. Instance Racing - On your mark! Get set! GO! Groups of 5 start an instance at the same time.... first one to finish it wins! Another idea is to have 3 instances in mind to do... one after the other. First to finish all three wins. Right now, though, the hardest monster in the came is the Portal Boss.
5. Acheivement Night - Let's work on some of those nifty acheivements! This wouldn't be a weekly thing as I think some may find it boring... but I for one, would LOVE to see 20+ guildies trying to jump off the elevator in Shatrath hoping to get that "Going Down" acheivement! Oh... and we'd need to do it nekkid *LOL*
6. New Server PvP Night - Back in UO days, we did this a few times. In UO you could have two characters of the same name... so it made it even funnier but here is the jist of it... We create level 1 characters on a PvP server (the more the merrier!) and then go try to find trouble to get into (ie. dieing over and over as we try to kill other players). In UO we all named ourselves Bob and went to a town and started attacking people... oh the grey robes we racked up that night! In Wow, we could go with Bobone, Bobtwo, and so on... or just go with our own names. (This would be even funnier to combine it with the NEXT idea)
7. Drunken Play Night! - This is for those over 21 ONLY! If I hear about any kid telling their parents that I told them to drink... well you wont like Neve much! The idea on this is to have a Game/Vent party... with alcohol! Once we're good and sauced, we either do the above idea... or try to run something like Kara! ((NOTE: You do NOT have to be drunk or drinking to be included!!! Some of us are silly enough sober!))
8. Trivia/Name that Song Night - Teak and I used to do this a lot in other games. It could be done in a major city to get other non-guildies involved in our crazyness! (An idea also, is to use funds out of the guild bank and hand out free drinks at the event)
***********
This is all I have for now... If we have free time at work tonight, I'll think up some more. Please note that these would NOT be the same every week! Maybe set aside one night where the event every week changes. I should know my new work schedule this week (to be put in place 2 weeks from now). Once I know that, I can make some plans for some of the things.
Please please give your input here as well! Like I said last night, this is not MY guild... it is not the officers' guild... it is OUR guild... just as much yours as it is mine. And it is what we all make of it!
