As the pages of the calendar turn, more knowledge is revealed about Guild Wars 2. Of all the news about this game, one part stands out: The Professions!
Undoubtedly, everybody is waiting to find out whether their favorite profession will make a return to the guild wars universe; and if it does, how is it going to fit in the new mechanisms.
What do you think when you look at the unrevealed figures? Do you start thinking... "Hey, that's gonna be a ranger... no! it looks more like a brand new one"?
Do you think you can foresee the names of those pictures better than the rest? There's one way to make everyone know that you were one of the people who knew from the very beginning that "That picture right there belongs to the warrior class". Participate in the Profession Prediction Contest and not only win a reward if you are correct, but also gain the right to bask in pride because of it.
This month, the Everlasting Sacred Path Guild/Alliance will celebrate our 5th year anniversary in Guild Wars. To commemorate this milestone, we will be hosting an alliance-wide party later in the month which will include games, a tournament, a giveaway, and plenty of prizes. The official announcement, along with rules and other specifics will be posted soon. We invite everyone to come celebrate with us. Friends of the alliance are welcome to attend. Just contact one of the ESP officers if guest invites are needed.
Crumpes and vodka and pants are always a given. What better excuse do you need to come out and have some fun with the alliance?
It is another new year and there are many exciting things ahead for the alliance.
We have made some modifications to the alliance lottery. The latest rules can be found in this thread. Our next drawing will be on Saturday, Jan 9th.
Our preparations for Canthan New Year are underway. In order to help organize our efforts I have started a new thread here so that we may focus on what we will need for 2010. I would like for the entire alliance to pull together and hold two districts together. With all of our resources we can easily reap the full benefit of the festival.
Thank you all for all your dedication and hard work.
. . . and I am not just talking about the guild leader of Kierian Crusaders.
The past month has seen changes within the ESP Guild and within the alliance as a whole. This has given us a fresh perspective and a new sense of focus as we move forward while still holding on to some cherished traditions of the past.
We are been very happy to see the addition of three very active and promising new guilds to our alliance. As we set out to cross swords with our opponents and embark on new adventures we now have at our side the ranks of the Kierian Crusaders [KIE], Meeting of the Lost Minds [MLM], and Pillars of the Earth [ROCK]. This confluence of guilds promises to carry us throughout the remainder of Guild Wars and on into Guild Wars 2 while providing plenty of activity and mischief to get into along every step of the way.
Given this new surge in the alliance, we have resumed the weekly alliance meetings, which are still held every Saturday at 7pm central time. At the most recent meeting we decided to also resume the weekly alliance lottery. The link to the new Alliance Lottery thread can be found here. We also discussed hosting an alliance-wide secret santa event for the holidays and hinted at a scavenger hunt that will be held sometime before Christmas. I am going to be looking for people to help with the holiday event planning. Please contact me via pm here on the forums if you are interested. More details about the event will be posted as they unfold.
ESP is getting into the ghoulish fun a little early before the Mad King comes to distract us.
This Saturday you are all welcome to join us for our events starting in our guild hall, hopefully on time!
As usual all times are in CST.
5.00pm ~ Costume Competition judging
Assemble in the ESP guild hall in your festive finery to be judged. If you cannot make it on the day and wish to be judged, submit your entry via a PM to Alethia in the forums prior to the start time.
5.30-6.30pm ~ Puzzle Competition
Nowhere near as diabolical as the past ones, but you must be on time to hear the rules if you want a shot at the main prize!
7.00-8.00pm ~ Scavenger Hunt
We have the theme - you will have a list. Get your running shoes ready and your monster slaying skills polished. If you can complete the list more the once you will get more prizes until we run out.

Random bouts of Rock Paper Scissors will be held throughout the night. The super scissors rule of the guild hall will be temporarily suspended!
