Nywen - Join! LotRo [APPROVED]

Post by Nywen on Mon Dec 08, 2008 7:08 pm


Q) What MMO do you currently have the most interest in playing? If Warhammer, which branch? (Destruction, Order or both.)
A) Lord of the Rings

Q) Have you read our Code of Conduct and Forum Rules?
A) Yes and yes.

Q) Are you at least 18 years of age? [yes, no, actual age is optional]
A) Gawd, the age question... You know a lady never reveals her age. But to answer the question, yes, I知 old
enough to smoke, drink, gamble and rent a car without the extra fees. And no, I知 not close to getting social
security.

Q) Have you read at least one of our example applications? [this is highly recommended]
A) Yes, I read a few of the accepted and rejected ones. I just hope my application doesn't do me wrong!

Q) Do you have any relatives or friends currently in the guild, or were you recruited by someone? If so, who?

A) If I had relatives in the guild I would be SHOCKED! And really I do mean affraid

Q) Name: [planned in game/forum name]
A) Nywen, but most of the time people usually just call me Ny

Q) Gender: [female, male]
A) Female the last time I checked though I did have a dream once that I was a guy in a sauna with a bunch of big busty women. Yeah, I woke up thinking, "Damn I was HOT guy!"

Q) What region do you live in? [City and State is fine.]
A) My region is the Far East. My city and state would be FPO AP. lol! I知 actually in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. Anything more specific than that, well your guess will be as good as mine. I struggled trying to get Ikea in Yokohama to deliver my dresser that I bought over the weekend.

Q) How did you hear about us: [friend, another member, forum, google, other mmo's, etc]
A) I've seen some of your members running around Middle Earth and read the post
in the BW Kinship forums.

Q) Are you currently in any other AoC, LOTRO, or Warhammer guilds?
A) I'm currently part of Dagor Dagorath in LotRo.

Q) Have you applied to any other guilds?
A) Nope.

Q) We like to have fun, how's your sense of humor? Not so good? Good? You're a standup comedian you say?
A) Fun is good! I'm a bad comedian that would get the big hook on stage. Was it exit stage left or right? I'm lost...

Q) What other MMO's have you played if any: [Acquired a few skills from some other games eh? Tell us about them]
A) Most of my MMO experience comes from City of Heroes and City of Villains.
My first MMO and I played for almost 3 years. I also played Guild Wars. I didn't play that for very long, just enough to get 1 character to 20 and tried PvP in there but most of the pugs I played with were horrible.

I tried WoW, AoC, WAR, PotBS, Tabula Rasa and EQ. PotBS was cool but I couldn't get the crafting in that game.

I do enjoy playing CoD 4: Modern Warfare online. I have World at War but the online play is nothing like Modern Warfare.

Q) What makes you want to join us over some of the other guilds? [let us know!]
A) You guys and gals seem like a more mature group than the others I've been
apart of. One can only handle so much from a drunken dwarf or lazy hobbit.

Q) Please tell a little about yourself, aside from gaming. Perhaps some hobbies, about your work, favorite story etc.
A) A little about myself? Hmmmm... What won稚 scare you away? Joking, I知 normal for the most part.


I do a lot of stuff besides games. I知 a free-loading shop-a-holic. I enjoy going out in town and seeing the
sites since I知 here in Japan. I love movies. Horror and thrillers are my fav! I read books and I値l be learning how to play the guitar, if my mail ever gets here in a timely fashion.


Q) Do you have any questions for us?
A) Do you have a good dental plan?

What about a vision plan? I知 an elf hunter that wears glasses. Will that be a problem?

What痴 your policy on how long members can be away from the game? I'll be visiting my family and friends over the summer and that usually means no play time on computers.

Konichiwa, Ny-san. I spent some time in Japan, a long time ago, while I was in the Air Force. I was assigned to a "remote" facility on Kyushu, outside of Fukuoka. But I digress.

My concern here is the time diference. Most of us are here during what would be the morning for you. It is quite possible that you could be one of only a few, if not the only one from the Clan on at the time. What are your thoughts on that?

As for prolonged abscences, we have had to take them from time to time. If you drop us note either in The Prancing Pony forum, or the General Forum in the AFK thread, you will be covered until your return.

Great app! However, I have the same question as Breygon, what are your normal playing times? I think you are about 12 hours difference in Japan as compared to EST? Or is it 13 hours? (In a former position, I supported one of my company's lab sites in Banyu and I was always trying to remember the time difference when setting up teleconferences.)
We do have a smaller contingent of folks that play during the daytime in the US, but the majority of our players are online in the evenings.
Concerning longer absences, as long as we know what your status is, it's no problem. People usually post on the board if they are going to be away a while.

I really like this app as well, but I also have the same question of play time. Like the others have said we do have a few people that are on in the day but we're mostly on in the evenings here. I do think the diversity will be great if the play times are not an issue.

I really like the app as well.
I think you could be a great fit.
It all comes down to the time difference. If you do not see it being an issue, I don't either. The bulk of us are on between 6PM and 12AM EST. But we do have a few people that log in during the day.

I have had that dream you mentioned in the gender question myself, a few times Laughing
You might find a drunk dwarf or lazy hobbit in the kin from time to time as well, but they are still fun to hang with.

I will give you a Thumbs Up for now.

A) I'm currently part of Dagor Dagorath in LotRo.


Greetings! Thank you for your interest in us. Your application looks well and good, just one question however.
Are you leaving your current Kinship if accepted here?

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that, the time thing. I normally play during the morning hours because that's when my daughter's in school and the husband is at work (when his not out floating somewhere out in the Pacific). Once in a while I jump on in the evening but its usually to get some things done like crafting - seriously who wants to be farming taters during prime time right?

So the time difference wouldn't be a problem. The only thing is that during the weekdays, I have get off at 1:45pm Japan time (I think that's 11:45pm EST if I converted time right) because school gets out here at 2pm and I have to pick up my daughter. But I'm usually back in like 20-30 mins. What a Face

As for my current kin, I was planning on leaving them pretty much whether or not I'm accepted here. They aren't a bad group of guys and 1 gal but I just don't think I belong even after being with them for a few months.

I'm not in the LOTRO part of things, but you sound like a great fit for our guild! Thumbs Up

I do not see the break at 11:45 PM EST as being a problem on a week night. Possibly half of the kin is logging out by then to get some sleep. But there are a few of us still on after that. I live in CST and we also have a few in Mountain and Pacific that are on a bit later.
