    Q) What MMO do you currently have the most interest in playing?
    A)Warhammeronline
    Q) Have you read our Code of Conduct and Forum Rules?
    A)Yes, especially the Honor and Integrity section. I like this guild's stand on leveling services and goldfarming.
    Q) Are you at least 18 years of age? [yes, no, actual age is optional]
    A)Yes, actual age is 56, old enough to be a grandfather to some of you but I doubt you need my fatherly advise! My skills may reflect my age but not my desire.
    Q) Have you read at least one of our example applications? [this is highly recommended]
    A)Yes and very helpful.
    Q) Do you have any relatives or friends currently in the guild, or were you recruited by someone? If so, who?
    A)No
    Q) Name: [planned in game/forum name]
    A)Hound
    Q) Gender: [female, male]
    A)Male
    Q) What region do you live in? [City and State is fine.]
    A)Owasso, Oklahoma...can you hear my Okie accent?
    Q) How did you hear about us: [friend, another member, forum, google, other mmo's, etc]
    A)Browsing the quild forum at Tentonhammer.
    Q) Are you currently in any other AoC, LOTRO, or Warhammer guilds?
    A)No I am not.
    Q) Have you applied to any other guilds?
    A)No, this is my first application.
    Q) We like to have fun, how's your sense of humor? Not so good? Good? You're a standup comedian you say?
    A)According to my sons "no I don't" but hey they are entitled to their opinion now that they are over 21!
    Q) What other MMO's have you played if any: [Acquired a few skills from some other games eh? Tell us about them]
    A)Worldwariionline from launch, WOW from launch till about six months ago, AOC beta i did not like the feel of this game and never bothered with the launch. Have played the short CE invite to the closed beta of Warhammeronline. I have found the right game just need to find the right guild to go with it. I am a long time fps gamer.Never played an mmo with this kind of combat style until my son started in WOW. He had the free 10 day trial with his game and I have been hooked ever since.
    Q) What makes you want to join us over some of the other guilds? [let us know!]
    A)The guild summary you posted in the tentonhammer forum decided it for me. It describes exactly what I am looking for in a guild. Understanding that you don't have to be a hardcore gamer to fully enjoy an mmo is good stuff! Here's my personal opinion...I don't want to be topdog. I want to be a teamplayer, contribute and enjoy the experience of a good guild.
    Q) Please tell a little about yourself, aside from gaming. Perhaps some hobbies, about your work, favorite story etc.
    A)My favorite hobby is reading. I have a wide interest in fiction and non-fiction.There are a lot of good books out there and a few bad ones. The rest of my non gaming time is spent working for a major airline as an aircraft mechanic for 26 years and babysitting my grandkids. I do envy their mastery of the gaming console's controller...aah, the good old days when I actually had hand, eye coordination.
    Please remember to register here on these forums.
    A)Yes I will and thanks for your time.
    Q) Do you have any questions for us?
    A)Yes, can you tell me what music the Hammertunes "Hammerfist Chant" and "Requiem" come from? Anyway thanks to whoever put the Hammertunes on the website. I thoroughly enjoyed them.

    Here are my favorite fiction books:
    "Eaters of the Dead" by Michael Crichton. A great Viking story that possibly explains the demise of the neanderthals.
    "Lonesome Dove" by Larry McMurtry. I consider it to be the great American novel. Hey, it's not just a western, it's about life!
    "A song of Ice and Fire series" by George R.R. Martin. Pick any of the four. I love to reread any of these. Ok I am cheating here but I would hate to single out just one of these great books.

    As far as a career path I really enjoyed Chaos Chosen in the short time I have played.

    Nice application and thanks for responding to Schade's question. I'm not sure where the two tunes you mentioned are from. Brakk could be able to answer that question. I like this guy. Thumbs Up

    If course it is evil, just chat with my wife. She is convinced I am the devil. Of course she is also happy to admit she loves the role as the devils handmaiden.

    Thank you for answering Hound. It is only fair that I disclose my favorite three as well.

    1) Sirens of Titan - Kurt Vonnegut (there is no short answer as to why I love this book other than... Brutally truthful satire on the human condition in western civilization)

    2) Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance - Robert Pirsig (I consider this requisite reading for any philosophy 101 class)

    3) 1984 - George Orwell (Yeah, read it and tell me he doesn't have things pegged.)

    I give you a Thumbs Up good sir.

    What? You mean the Devil gets his own personel handmaiden? Oh man, I knew I should have applied for that job!

    Thanks for all the kind replys everyone.

    Thanks Daloan for the reply...

    The paperback edition also has a great illustration on the cover. I have a collection of old style paperbacks. The age ranges from the 40's to the 60's. This book had to go in the collection even if it was published in the 70's. Although today it could be considered of antique age. Hmmm, maybe I need to expand my range.

    My list of authors for Viking tales also includes Bernard Cornwell and a new author named Robert Low.
    If anyone has any authors to suggest for this kind of story, please don't hesitate...I'm listening!

    Fantastic application, and with the close monitoring of your application and interaction, this application hits the express lane to approval. Welcome aboard Smile

    (Requiem) for a Dream - aka Lux Aeterna https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKLpJtvzlEI
    As far as the Hammerfist Chant - It was an untitled track in a fansite kit bundled by Funcom for it's MMO Age of Conan.

    Glad you enjoyed the selections!

    Eaters of the Dead is one of my faves too! Did you know that it's the story of Beowulf, rewritten incognito?
