Bonus Information: The below selected email is the flurry of activity (all conducted on 3 January, 2008) that tracked the formative period of the group and has never been posted before. It's here that Grunt Foundation really came into being.
From Xara, 2008-01-03: ". . . since it appears we've definitely got a lock and a priest, that means we really do need a dedicated Tank. While I'd rather do ranged DPS, I could try out a Warrior and then Machar, if you want to do a Druid we can take turns tanking.Which makes my name Huldukrieger instead, but that's okay. *chuckles* Sorry, I tend to use language translators for my character names, and German for "troll warrior" just sounds rather cool.So let's update the list here:
Machar (Mage or Druid)
Xara (Warrior)
Morskaya (Warlock)
Always2Lost (Priest)
If we can get a fifth it would be great.
From Machar, 2008-01-03: "If we have a warrior and a paladin on board, then we're set for tanks and melee fighters. If this is the case, then I'll roll a mage, since they bring crowd control, magical DPS, and food/drinks. Here's the latest update then:
Machar (Mage)
Xara (Warrior)
Morskaya (Warlock)
Always2Lost (Priest)
svivertio (Paladin)
Please tell me your character's name and race as soon as possible, and we should also decide on how to handle professions too.
Our realm will be The Scryers, an RP-PvE realm. We'll play Hordeside.
Our group meeting times are:
Sunday, starting at 9 AM Eastern/6 AM Pacific for 2-3 hours, and Thursday, starting at 8:30 PM Eastern/5:30 PM Pacific for 1-2 hours.
Group time is for doing quests together, so if you need to repair/restock/use the AH/grind a profession, try to do that on your own time.
Unless I hear objections otherwise, let's meet in Orgrimmar on Sunday, January 6, at 9 AM Eastern/6 AM Pacific. This will give you time to level your way up to 10."
From Always2lost (me), 2008-01-03: "My priest's name is Phillyperdue. Just created her on Scryers as an undead. Professions are flower picking and potion making. We should try to cover all the gathering professions.
I'm good with the thurs/sun group times. Ok with meeting up this sunday, 6 Jan, too. I'd say we should all try make it to level 10 by then and to meet up in Orgrimmar to start with, but if not then we'll work on it when we all get in game. I would also like to quest in Ghostlands as most of the quests there would be new to me, but where we start first doesn't matter to me. We'll get to them all eventually.
A little more about me - I've already talked about my WoW experience
(1 70 with a lot of raid experience, several lower level alts, 2+
years playing). I'm a fan of RTS games like Diablo, Warcraft, Dungeon
Siege, etc, but rarely play them anymore as I don't have the time. WoW
is my first and only MMO. Don't like first person shooters as I don't
have the twitch reflexes to be very good at them, which is also why I
shy away from pvp. Live in California and have been through Phoenix
many times. I am owned by more than a couple of cats. I'm a program
manager and I'll bet older than all of you. :-) "
From Machar, 2008-01-03:"My mage's name is Braeco, and he's a blood elf. I'm going to go with enchanting as one of my professions, and probably mining for my second. So if you pick up some materials that someone else in the group can use, such as cloth, herbals, ore, or junk greens to DE,
consider holding onto them instead of AH-ing them to help our crafters.
Our list so far stands at:
Phillyperdue, undead priest, Herbalism/Alchemy
Huldukrieger, troll warrior, Mining/Blacksmith
Konpeito, blood elf warlock, Tailor/Jewelcrafter
Braeco, blood elf mage, Enchanter/Miner
Arquelion, bloodelf paladin, Skinner/Herbalist
and a slot for earthbayne, if he wishes to claim it.
As for myself, I'm from New England, where I work as a medical researcher in a hospital. I just turned 28, and I've been playing RPGs for over half of those years. I've leveled one WoW character to 70 before, an enhancement shaman, and I hope I'll be going to Kara with him soon over on the Kirin Tor server."
From Philly (now using character names): "Very cool. With 3 BEs and an undead maybe we should get together in Silvermoon city instead of Org. Huldu, think you can make it to SC from Org? :-) "
From Huldkreiger: "Yup, shouldn't be a problem. I'll likely level to 10 in Orcland and then zepp to UC and orb to SC."
From Braeco on Saturday, 5 Jan 2008: "Okay guys, this is the final roll call. We start play tomorrow. Make sure you're at level 10 and ready to go.
Phillyperdue, undead priest, Herbalism/Alchemy
Huldukrieger, troll warrior, Mining/Blacksmith
Konpeito, blood elf warlock, Tailoring/Jewelcrafter
Braeco, blood elf mage, Enchanting/Mining
Arquelion, blood elf paladin, Skinning/Herbalism
and a slot for earthbayne, if he wishes to claim it. (Better hurry!)
Our realm is The Scryers (RP)
Sunday, starting at 9 AM Eastern/6 AM Pacific for 2-3 hours, and Thursday, starting at 8:30 PM Eastern/5:30 PM Pacific for 1-2 hours.
We'll meet at the Wayfarer's Rest Inn in Silvermoon (That's the one closest to the main gates.)
Last chance to make any changes, or voice whether you'd rather go to Ghostlands or Barrens for the first grind."
