We should make an MMORPG.COM guild.

54 people. We play 2 hours every M-T-W-TH. (or whatever the consensus is)

We plan our race/classes in advance to make sure we have 9 solid groups.

Attendance must be 90% or higher (just so we know everyone will stay around the same level).

Nobody in the guild plays their guild toons outside of those hours.

We all hunt/quest/level together meeting at predesignated areas.

Each hunt/quest/leveling zone is voted on by all 54 members a week in advance.

We never go to luclin.

We never go to pok.

Not even for travel.

Basically we'd be doing Old world, Kunark and Velious. LDON included.

This is just to have fun and be social with fellow MMORPG.COM members and EQ fans... any takers?

Oh and Asshats and people who thnk they're all that don't waste my time. I want people who like to have a beer or 2 (or 24) and enjoy themselves. Laid back people who aren't going to cause a lot of drama.

There has to be at least 54 of us on here that would like to enjoy this game again.

It might take a month to put everything together (guild website/forum and race/class combos) so if you're interested and we get enough people plan on starting around Dec 1st.

Reply with Race/Class combo you wish to play and when/if we get enough interest i'll PM you with website/forum info.

Actually no. I set out parameters for a guild. You can make other characters and play them whenever you like. The idea behind this is to play as one, socialize and have fun. Without strict parameters the levels would get all spread out and it wouldn't really work.

Basically we'll know when we log in we'll be able to find a group, have familiar people to play with and it should make things a lot easier.

I guess what i'm trying to recreate is that Sunday afternoon D&D group experience. But obviously doing this game with 1 group and on 1 day is infeasible. It would take decades. So we'd have to play more but we don't want to play seperate.

Hopefully with 9 groups we'll be able to span all 4 US time zones with a couple groups. I'm CT so i'm good with whatever is decided on by the guild as a whole.

Let's go ahead and say the window would most likely be 8pm Eastern time to 12am Eastern time. That would be late enough for for all time zones to be involved for a couple hours. We could even adjust that on varying days to tighten the groups up.

Mon - 7pm - 9pm ET
Tue - 8pm - 10pm ET
Wed - 9pm - 11pm ET
Thur- 10pm -12pm ET

Something like that might work.

Put your hand inside the puppet head.

 Oh, this is such a tempting concept -- play whatever I want all week, but a few hours a week have a planned playing session... Could be fun.

You should post this on EQ1's forum, there are lots of classic enthusiasts that may be interested in this.
