Last updated 20 August

Destination (EU): We will be on Gunnar's Hold (EU) on release

Destination (US): At present we haven't had enough interest in organizing a mass grouping for US, but do feel free to pipe up on the thread if you want to do this. Either way you're all welcome to join the EU based guild. Equally I'm getting some fairly positive reports that lag cross region isn't that bad so feel free to join us

Focus: Casual / Social PvX guild.

Recruitment: We're open to all followers of RPS
If you're looking for a super organized, high activity guild you're in the wrong place. If you want to play at your own pace and just have a good time with a decent community then welcome aboard

For reference the age of members generally skews to 25+. Young folk: we're happy for you to join if you feel you can behave in a respectful and mature manner, but otherwise you may be best served looking elsewhere.

Rules: We are governed by the one principal rule of RPS -

"Be excellent to each other."

This means both fellow guild members and the wider community. Insulting people and general douche-baggery will not be tolerated.

Seen an RPS member behaving poorly in GW2? Feel free to PM me here or add me on Steam to discuss ( http://steamcommunity.com/id/timofee ). Remember though that screenshots/proof will be needed.

Voice comms: Mumble (RPS members / friends of only please)

Port: 13237
Password: the name of RPS's ursine lord (all lower case). Hint it begins with an h

I'm all sorts of pumped for Guild Wars 2 - just look for that guy that forgoes sleep for the entire weekend the first time I can get my hands on the game! Should be pretty sweet to play around with some other RPSers. Count me in!

[duff]

GW2 is looking sexy as fuck, an RPS guild would just be the icing on the cake.

[DeVadder]

Im in. GW2 looks awesome.

[Coccyx]

I'll be there

[Ayam]

I'm probably in for Guild Wars 2 - I'm assuming this is on the European branching of servers, if such a thing exists.

[Timofee]

Thanks all. When the weekend starts I'll confirm my character name here and you can just whisper me for an invite.

@ Ayam: yes. That being said I'm not 100% sure whether in the beta the servers were hosted in europe or whether they were all US.

[DWZippy]

_{I'll be in for the actual game! Planning to dual class this and Diablo 3. Although, I won't play if Ayam is there, because he's smelly.}

[FlishWHU18]

I'm very new! but i'm up for this.
Very much looking forward to this gorgeous looking game..

[Ravelle]

Sounds like bunch of fun, sign me in.

[desvergeh]

I'd be up for this too. Plonking down my cash for the pre-order in 5 mins.

[Screwie]

I'm so in.

Re: Servers:
You can swap around and play on any server you like, EU or US. The only restriction imparted by your "home server" is that is the side you must play on in the WvW mode.

EDIT: But the most important question remains!

"Rock Paper S________"?

[duff]

Rock Paper Sylvari

Also I got the gw2 art book yesterday and it's sexy.

A few skill-inspired suggestions, for old times' sake:

Rock, Paper, ...

...Shadowform,
...Shatterstone,
...Spiteful Spirit,
...Skull Crack,
...Searing Flames,
...Savage Shot.

Most likely I will run some of my future characters with my old GW1 guild, but since you will supposedly be able to have different characters in different guilds, I'll definitely will join in.

[Screwie]

Rock, Paper, ...

...Shadowform

I quite like "Rock Paper Shadowstep" actually. Although any argument you could cite against a race-specific name, you could certainly put against a profession-specific one. (EDIT: Not intended as a knock against RPSylvari, which I'm happy with personally.)

Rock Paper Signet?

[wahwah]

I'd be up for that

Rock Paper Shiverpeaks
Rock Paper Salvage Kit
Rock Paper Skillpoint
Rock Paper Snow Leopard
Rock Paper Skritt

hmm =\

GO TO HELL*




*and dine two for one.

[squirrelfanatic]

Rock Paper Shiverpeaks
Rock Paper Salvage Kit

I also thought about the first one, maybe the guild hall would have to be located in Norn territory then. The second one sounds good as well, if maybe a bit... special.

[Ayam]

What about just Rock Paper Shotgun? There are guns in the game if you're desperate for a link to tie the guild name between RPS and GW2.

[sendmark]

A couple more suggestions:

Rock Paper Charrzooka (no S though)
Rock Paper Salvage (drop kit from the earlier suggestion, although maybe sounds a bit farmy)

So far Shiverpeaks is the best suggestion of the GW2 themed names imo, although agreed that it could just be called Rock Paper Shotgun (for a change ).
