AIE General
First up, we want to give a shout-out to Mefe, who has published an album of Christmas music. There are five Christmas carols, each recorded in a different style using different instruments, and sung by some very talented kids. The album is called Light of Life, and you can find it on iTunes and Bandcamp. (Zod: I gave them a listen this afternoon, and they’re very good.)
If you’re a PlayStation 4 player, Syn started a thread in the community forums for everyone to post their PSN handle. Quite a few people have posted theirs, so jump in there and start gaming with AIE on your PS4
We are halfway through NaNoWriMo, the yearly challenge to write a 50-thousand--word novel in 30 days, and a number of AIE members are plugging right along on their books. If you’re taking the NaNoWriMo challenge, let us know, and if you finish your novel and want to offer it up for AIE members to read, send us a link!
Of course WoW is the big news this week, but they’re not the only game out there. There are hundreds of games, from big MMOs to Facebook games, to little mini mobile games, and AIE plays them all. To find people playing your favorite game, check out the Minor League Games subforum in the Community section of the forums.
AIE members are also all around the world, and the next best thing to playing games with AIE, is hanging out in real life. AIE has a page at Meetup.com where you, yes you, can arrange your own meetups with other AIE members. Whether it’s playing some board games, or grabbing a meal and a movie, or getting together at a major convention, Meetup.com is our real life Looking For Group!
AIE World of Warcraft
Major kudos to Thuggs the AIE hunter for taming Gara. Gara is a cool-looking spirit wolf that came out with Warlords of Draenor, and taming it is a lot more involved than just tossing it a few scooby snacks. There’s an epic quest line that takes you all over Draenor. It’s probably the most involved hunter beast taming in the game. So again, way to go Thuggs,
Thanks to Heirbuch for posting this reminder - Blizzard has stopped characters from earning rested experience until you log into them at least once, so if you have some lvl 90s parked someplace waiting their turn to go into the Dark Portal, be sure to log in on them at least once.
If you’re a little confused about Garrisons, and especially which remote outposts to choose, AIE member Miy posted a link to a “How to choose garrison outposts for leveling” guide. that walks you through all the choices for remote outposts and suggests which one you might want to pick, if your focus is on leveling.
And finally, if you didn’t know, Blizzard has removed the feature that awarded gold to guild banks when members are out questing and looting mobs. Because of this, we have no new gold flowing into our guild banks. We’ve always allowed our guild banks to be used to cover a certain amount of member’s repair bills each day, but with the increased expenses from everyone leveling, and with no gold coming in, we’ve decided to decrease the limit you can use for repairs each day, to try to make the gold stretch a little longer before it’s all gone.
AIE The Old Republic
