Alyxyn continues to be scummy!

Okay.. I will write this as my player rather than as my terribly twisted little goblin alterego just so that you can all read this post.

Alyxyn came into being quite some time ago in a guild far far away.  Okay.. well anyway, a different guild.  At that point he really wasn't that much into PVP as *I* am not into PVP at all.  Way too often I see people being douchebags and outright asses to each other in PVP forgetting that there are other people actually behind the characters they are ganking for the 20th straight time in 5 minutes.

Due to this I didn't do much in the arena at all until they initiated the scrapbook.  With the scrapbook I didn't have much choice but do some arena work in order to max out my level in there.  I still didn't like the PVP at that time, didn't like it at all but I kept going intermittently.

Then there were a couple people in other guilds that would attack me wantonly.  A couple of leaders of other guilds would even burn mushrooms, up to a dozen a day, to attack me and maybe win once or twice.  The consolation I took out of that is that heck.. they are even paying the game money in order to beat on Alyxyn's little green butt so they are paying to help the game out and I can contribute that way.  Generally as a response, I would attack them back to reclaim the honor points that I will have lost to them.

Today, I pretty much hold my level of Honor by being mostly a nice guy and helping out Q.  I only really attack someone when they get 1000 honor above me and I can be scummy and attack them without cost to me (I hope you all know that if you attack this way and lose.. you lose NOTHING.. but if you win, you gain honor and gold and strip them of the same?)

In any case, I mostly am quiet (other than Alyxyn running his mouth at times) in the PVP area.  I know I am not the best, I don't even try, I just try to help and stay at my current level.

However, all that said, today I had to prove just how scummy I AND Alyxyn are.

Yesterday, seeing that I was less than 20 victories away from the 5000 kill gladiator medal and its prize of higher stats, I mentioned it in guild chat and then followed Q's advice to beat up on some lowbies to get my victories.. but I stopped one victory shy... at 4999 victories.

Today, when I went to the doctor to be seen, I got home to find a lovely lovely green email in my mailbox.  nNelg had attacked me and lost.  Therefore to be highly scummy, I turned around and forwarded the results to nNelg.  With this email, I included a thank you for being the 5000th loser to Alyxyn in the arena and my appreciation for him delivering to me the Gladiatorial Medal that he did.  The best part is that.. 'he did it to himself by attacking me' bwahahahaha

Just had to share the love and scumminess :)

BirthdayBashes: Parrish goes into space

Well, not really. But he DID reach the mega awesome level of 300! Gratz Pman! And becasue some scum are actually smart (yeah, not that many, I know), he saved himself some dungeons for this happy occasion and shot straight to 301 in the same day.

FreshScumFlash: WTFmybeer & New Officers

I know it is a bit overdue.. but I seriously thought I already did it in the previous post. Oh well, we all need that WTF moment don’t we?

Welcome to WTFmybeer (Got to love that name… No seriously… You GOT to love that name. That is an order!) a level 269 catriding mage with a 94% scrapbook. You might remember him from our adventures at Zenith. Mr. WTF got himself purged there recently during his holiday no one knew anything about. See, THAT is why you need to tell your fellow scum when you are planning to be absent from the game for a while. And who knows, you might even find someone to babysit you during that period. Anyway he promised AAylia that he wouldn’t make the same mistake here or she could do with him whatever she wanted. (yeah, he isn’t that smart)

For someone not that smart he has some deep thoughts though. I’ll just leave these wise words here, and await your answers in the comment field below this post. Best answer wins a free prize!

 

“If beer would be a chess figure, what kind of move would it get to make..?”

Hope you'll enjoy yourself here.WTFmybeer But it seems to me you fit in just fine with a name like that.

New Officers

We also have two new officers to welcome. Hym took over the 12.00 PST warmonkey spot from Redwood17. And Demon William is in the process of taking over the Mr. Data spot from Kamisama. Yes, I said “in the process” because these two world travellers seem to have some troubles to get their time zones in sync enough to actually talk to each other long enough to complete the transition. So don’t expect much spying soon. But once the spying recommences, we’ll start doing the weekly birthdaybashes again.
 

Monthly background

And don't forget to thank Iola for the monthly background. The only thing missing is the text "We scare the crap out of you" wich I adopted as our monthly slogan visible to all other guilds iu our guildtext.

ScumFlash: Goodbye g33k, Hello new officers

Sometimes the time comes to say goodbye. Today it is time to say goodbye to r34lg33k.

"Thanks guys for years of entertainment, but i'm following Mag, Duncan and whole slew of peeps & moving on =) Cherished my time as Scum but got other things requiring my attention and my current level of activity a dimmed spark compared to what it used to be, feels wrong for others still actively contributing and deserving the spot a whole lot more. Cheers to you all. Some dwarvish ale to all of you on my tab =)"

- r34lg33k

r34lg33k, you have been true scum during the time you were here. You will be severely missed for your happy banter. And whenever we see a tranny we’ll be thinking of you with a huge grin on our faces… J

Officers

During the last months we slowly lost some activity at the officer part of this guild. Time to change that again and get ourselves some new officers.

Scum that has been around for longer than a couple of months remember our weekly Birthday Bashes posts on this blog . I’ve been asked a couple of times why we stopped doing those. Well, the answer to that is short and simple: our good friend Kami “lord hair”sama aka Mr. Data and one of the most active officers for a very very long period (anyone remember the awesome Soundcheck posts he made? ) had come to a point where he didn’t have the time anymore to keep track of all your levelling and other accomplishments.  A lot later than planned, I want to seriously thank Kamisama for all the work he has done for this guild. But no worries, Kami won’t go anywhere. He just doesn’t have the time to do his officer duties anymore.

Another officer that has no time for his officer duties anymore is Tofurkey our Babysit Central for many years. Anyone who went on a holiday and needed a sitter knows that Tofurkey always did his best to recruit the best babysitters available, to keep your account active and healthy while you were away. With Tofurkey touring through Europe he can't devote his time to recruiting and arranging sitters anymore. Sad times for your ScumLord, because Tofurkey has been the one and only lowlife that has been an officer since the day I was too slow to avoid becoming your ScumLord. So thank you very much for that Tofurkey.

So now what? Well, we got 50 lowlifes in this guild and I’m sure some of you are willing to actually do something to keep this guild ticking and alive. We have the following officer spots available:

• Babysit central
• Battlemonkey (0:00 PST aka 9:00 CEST)
• Battlemonkey (12:00 PST aka 21:00 CEST)
• Battlemonkey (backup)
• Disinformation Spreader
• Mr. Data
• Party Animal

If you wonder what these jobs entail, just check our officer page and be enlightened. If you have interest in becoming an officer, just mail me in game and tell me which job you would like and why. And who knows… you might become our newest officer and are allowed to eat in the officer mess hall (we have cookies!!!) and have the bragging rights of being an officer in the #1 guild of your heart! (that is the Severed Tongue, for you slow of mind ones).

 

I hope I'll get a lot of mails in the next couple days...

Fresh ScumFlash: Al Capone and 3-CPO

Do we have news for you today.  Two of the most scummy beings in the history of ever… Firstly we have Al Capone. A well-known crime syndicate mobster that was huge in smuggling and bootlegging liquor (Oak will seriously love you…) in the early twenties. He managed to make ordinary people love him for it. But as often happen with scum, he forgot to do his taxes and got thrown behind bars.

Secondly we got 3-CPO.  A smoothtalking, backstabbing scumbucket who is great at getting himself in trouble and then run for the hills. Ofcourse his biggest accomplishment was betraying the man who made him what he is today. Now tell me that isn’t scummy… Oh... I just received a message telling me that was C-3PO, not 3-CPO… 

Right, mistaken identity… next thing you know it isn’t Al either… it isn’t? DEVDAMNIT!!! Do we actually have two new players? We do? Good… Ok, let’s try again --_--

Welcome to Capone, a level 249, dragon riding scout with a scrapbook of 79% (you can do better than that Capone, just bribe someone…). Let’s hope he stops hiding and starts livening up the chat soon. Although he probably is planning something with mistress AAylia… To put it in his own words: “Heaven won't take me.. And Hell's afraid i'll take over!!!” BFF?

Also welcome to our latest victim, CipiO. A level 248, raptor riding scout with a 93% scrapbook. The good thing so far, apart from the fact he looks like Alyxyn’s ugly twin, is that he seems to enjoy to run around the guildhall naked… ehr… sorry that is Alyxyn again. The good thing… the good thing... is that he actually knows how the guildchat works and actually uses said functionality. We like chatty scum. To put it in his own words. “Don't drink water! Fish fuck in it!” and “BEER is LIFE, the rest just details!”.  Words of Wisdom…
