Rg 23.04.12

[Vargen]

Depending on what we do we swap someone out. I guess me and Twyster are the only two who don't actually need anything in EV/KP, but it is mostly Gromit and Tealeaf that need stuff. Depending on how much we clear on the Thursday run I'm guessing much of this run will be in Denova though.

Krek'la should be allowed to tank, as he has expressed this is what he wants to do.
Anything else?

Tanks
Krek'la
Imhotep
Lurek




Healers
Twyster
Gromit



DPS
KKND
Varg
Tenilia
Tealeaf

Looks good but I am not sure if TL still wishes to op I thought I had read somewhere he would stop when sheepy did.

[JanuZ]

I believe the quote you are speaking of was about him not wanting to keep a raid spot from someone else but that he was willing to continue while we search for ranged DPS.

[JanuZ]

Can I stick my nose in and suggest that RG seek a full time replacement for Sheepy's slot? I was only ever filling in for Sheepy so it makes way more sense to recruit a replacement who can do the whole raid week and not just half of it. WoW is still occupying me fully, so I really do not see the point in me holding down a half spot in RG when all I'll be doing is holding you folks back and slowing the gear-up rate of full-time members.

I'll make sure I'm around for the next two Op runs (tonight and next week), but before then I'll step down if you have found a full-time replacement.

Here is the quote

Thanks Draz, just wanted to make sure

I posted that for 2 reasons.  The first was that I do not see the point in me holding down a RG spot when I cannot make the attendance, replacing me is better for RG in the longer term.   The second was that with the first decision already taken, I elected not to renew my SWTOR subscription which runs out today.  I find that I don't have the time for both WoW and SWTOR atm and will revisit SWTOR once it gets the end-game fixed (imho).

What I absolutely did not want to do was to post this info in the member section and create another 'drama' for people to get emo about.   Hence I decided to post it in the way I did, to step down from RG and then once not in an Op Group to back away quietly from the game without people noticing.  That's also why I did not take any loot that anyone else needed last Monday.

If push comes to shove and you are seriously stuck then I will renew my subscription for 30 days and provide Monday cover for the next month, but I was hoping you'd have replaced me fully by now and would prefer not to have to spend funds to do this.

[JanuZ]

I think we can manage, are you not getting 30 free days? I think all accounts with a level 50 were supposed to get it, I got an email about it with in the last week.

[TeaLeaf]

I've had no email and when I logged on to my account this morning it said '0 days left'.  Wierd, I've checked my email too and nothing received.  Wonder if the account needed an active subscription at the time of the announcement?

[TeaLeaf]

In appreciation for your support, all active subscribers with a Level 50 character or with a Legacy Level 6 account will receive 30 days of game time** at no charge.

Just be sure you are an active subscriber and have a Level 50 character by April 12, 2012, 12:00PM CDT, 5:00PM GMT or April 22, 2012, 12:00PM CDT, 5:00PM GMT.

If you qualify, you'll receive an email notification from 'The Old Republicâ,,¢ Community'. The 30 days of game time will show up on your account by April 25, 2012, 11:59PM CDT/ April 26, 2012, 4:59AM GMT (the 30 days of game time will be added to your account at the end of your current billing period).

So it looks like I'll get my 30 days free playing time, but I've not had the email yet and it might not arrive until 25th April.  I've sent a ticket in just in case and will wait to see what they say.

[JanuZ]

You are one of our most active and valued high level players and we know you have been waiting patiently for Game Update 1.2: Legacy.

This is the text of the email, so it might not be updated yet even if you are getting it.

I got the mail on friday

[TeaLeaf]

The response to the ticket.  Looks like I'll miss the 23rd, but could cover during the next 30 days for the Monday Op runs if needed.

I have reviewed your account and I can confirm that you are eligible for the 30 free days. The 30 free days are not being applied to people’s accounts until the 24th April 2012.

Nice of them to publicise 'by' and implement 'on' 24th.
