Dinner with the devs (no but seriously...)

Post#1 » Mon Jul 24, 2017 6:06 pm

I am going to suggest something. I realize that I have only undergone some, not all of the hazing it takes to become a true forum warrior. So please feel free to meme me and GETGUD me all you'd like but this idea seems really fun.

We all know a few devs/gm's or know a friend who knows them. But I am here to suggest a place where you can personally post your TS/Discord info and request a dev to play with you for the evening.

I get this may sound totally stupid and ridiculous but honestly, it is a lot of fun. I have been fortunate enough to play with some of the devs/gm's on order (When I was in the Inquisitors on my WP Dawm) and also on my DoK in my guild Drow.

Let it be known they do not like "dev questions" as obviously this would get old, nor do they like hearing about "all the things wrong with the server" - so please get that out of your head. But I promise it is such a great experience to not only humanize these people (they are people) - but just to see/hang out and talk/play with them.

So.... any devs up for the challenge to play with some random parties? If so... post it here and hopefully people will post their TS/Discords and invite you.

I am obviously expecting this to get zero replies and get pushed back into the masses of threads revolving around white lions and nerfs not quite as far up as morale nerfs, but somewhere along the lines of "free stuff plz" or "what should I play" - somewhere in there.

So... anyone of you fabulous gents/gals wanna play with us?

I played with Druin a bunch. A little bit with Torquemadra, and I can confirm... they are humans, lol.

I'd love to play a couple hours with Wargrimnir though. He sounds like a dwarf even when he types!

I saw Torq in an sc once. He and I were the only ones playing the objective and IIRC, we won the sc for our team.

I saw ade on his dok a couple times. Mostly he was **** talking, which was kinda funny, and running from the mighty order zerg, which was even funnier :p

Can't see this working out though. Will just cause drama IMO, as the guilds or groups the devs play with will lead to calls of favoritism, etc. Wish it weren't so, but tis the nature of gamers in my experience

I saw Torq on his WH once back in t3... it didn't end well... for once of us :P I would literally pay money to get him and war in an SC together with us.

Then how do we play the game at all? I mean we do play and I dont get that many tells or shouts that I favor some team over another or anything.

Ceegee is my personal favvvvvvv just because she has the toughest skin of any of them that I've met so far. But yah it'd be fun to get them in the drow TS. Or any TS for that matter :D
