Guildwatch Halloweenies

It's Thursday and the Guildwatch column is here, complete with guilds dissolving before our eyes, two guilds in an 8 page forum shouting match (You suck.  No, YOU suck! Etc.), and the GM of Endgame on the Boulderfist realm using faction and server transfers to vanish with the guild bank.  This would be old news except he posted a brief sad movie about the whole experience in the second link below. What's next?  Guildwatch the Movie?!

This last tidbit is so good I'm quoting Guildwatch's author in full:

"This one's almost scary -- a few months ago, Humble on Crushridge stole Archon's raid ID, and locked them out for two days by camping 25 characters in Ulduar so they couldn't progress. A little while after that, a shaman named Marvingaye applied to Humble and got accepted as a raider. On the week that Trial of the Crusader's hard mode was released, Marvingaye revealed his true self as a sleeper agent for Archon: he went back to Ulduar and ToC after a raid, began the Algalon timer, activated the keepers, and extended the lockout. Then he went to ToC, both 10- and 25-man, and used all of their wipes up (remember, this is the first week it was open, where all of the server firsts were up for grabs). Very epic. Moral of the story: don't ever, ever cross Archon on Crushridge. They know how to get their revenge, and they're patient enough to wait on it."

Finally, there is lots of raiding and recruiting, just not on the Solo MMO Player's realm.  Happy Halloween!
