a few curiosities

[Graceangel]

1. How many wish guilds are there in all on these boards? if any of you know...
2. If there are several, do anyone have the names?
3. Is there any chance fo them merging into ours at a later point and time?

going into a different area of questions...

what are the plans for this group in regards to taking over an area? I did read somewhere you guys were gonna get the other guilds to be our guards.. but.. maybe some of us could do a little crafting and combat.. just enough combat to defend our borders.. and have an alliance... or, like.. maybe each guild could operate a barony... and each barony would be in teh formation of the wish star? and that area would be under our control? just an idea... and all wish people could have homes in the center of it.. or.. we all live on the edges of it..a dn the combat is in the middle or something like that?

I hope they ahve cooking and farming. that's usually what i do.

LOL, so many questions, such few answers. OK I'll try to answer:

1. I know of just one other...
2. called The Stars of Aesir...
3. but they've got their own organization and so I doubt that they'll join us, but we are allies.

...plans? us?
I think we'll be like kids in a candy shop, we'll want to do everything when we are ingame. I don't think any of us are hardcore pvp but we probably all want to try our hand at sieging and defending, questing, exploring, crafting, politics (and...cooking!)

An alliance of baronies in the shape of the Wish star? I love the idea! Completely mad and impractical, but I love it :)

Well, do any of you still post with either project wish forums or the wish refugees.. ya know they made a forum after the wish ones shut down called wish refugees. that's how i recognized this name right away. I bet more would come.. everyone who played that game for the most part loved it. wonder what happened to all our rider of the wind people.

Well i think in the first month everyone will do everything (atleast they will try to) and then i think stuff will get more orginised. Guilds will work together etc etc etc.

[Graceangel]

I suppose that's just the way those kind of things go then. I know once you actually get inside a game world; it's a whole other thing than just to talk about it.

can i ask you guys tho... when WISH shut everythign down and it's forums.. did it make you guys cry? cuz i was quite mortified for weeks after that. the first game i've ever felt like that over.

[Lord Rufus]

Well I won't admit crying but yes, it's the worst I've ever felt over a cancelled game :(

[Grillmonkey]

I heard it was a serious error in the code that would be too expensive and take too long to fix.. was that what you guys heard?

I was really shocked I tell you. I had chain played MMOs for the last 3 years (Ultima, Ragnarok, SWG) and was without for 6 days before I found Wish. I really loved Wish then I got the message the servers were shutting down in 3 hours for good. Nobody believed it I seem to remember, for a good 2 hours it was believed it was all hackers. Then people began to log off. It wasa terrible feeling of being without an MMO and one as good as Wish.

I also remember the explanation wasn't made clear at all by the designers but instead theories circulated...
The most popular was that EA had either bought Wish out or forced them to shut down as EA own Ultima Online and Wish was being advertised as UO but better by its community. With bugs in the code... I didn't notice any bugs while I was playing compared to the number I have noticed in other MMOs and I pride myself on being good ad spotting them. The onyl one was to do with npcs disappearing but whether that was a bug that was explained away with the storyline towards the end or whether it was really the storyline I am not sure. I never saw any of the npcs actually die of the plague.

Ok. well, I am heading up the guild clan for wish players on Irth Online. We are going with my old wish game guild's name riders of the wind. I was gonna go with wish refugees that way we could be one enormous clan spread out between games; but several people wanted a rp name.. and also to be open to new players who never had the pleasure and mourning of knowing wish...

i got in the beta but all i did for 2 and a half hours today was run around...lol..i was on last night, but i have found i learned the wrong skill.. and in their game they won't let you study another manual while mastering one to 10.00.... lol.. i'd say more but i can't.
