Cathedrals and Monsters

Hi everyone! I didn't get to play today because I had to go somewhere else. Yup, I have a life other than WYD. Today I attended my cousin's wedding at the Manila Cathedral. It was my first time to go to that place and so I was really excited. The Manila Cathedral is like the largest church in the Philippines so going there was really something. At left is a picture that I took. Too bad a tree is on the way. I can't really move much coz of the rain hence the sloppy pic T T.




Anyway, I arrived home at a little past midnight and since I still can't sleep I checked out if SHIELD has guild war but it seems like no one has the balls to challenge us so I waited for kingdom war. During KW, no red capes show up so it was really boring only us blues hanging out in Noatun. Fortunately, GM decided to give us some monsters to kill.

We just finished KW and I feel so sleepy now so I better end this but before I go, I wanna share a very old pic I got of CM Dhar and CM Nyx. CM Dhar is wearing his big bad cat costume in all its pink glory while CM Nyx is in her granny suit lol. Which reminds me, I haven't seen CM Nyx for quite some time now. Where are you CM Nyx?
I hope you all enjoy this pic which I rummaged from my vault. Hohum I gotta sleep now. Good night y'all and see you in-game tomorrow. Zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

What I can do as a gamer

Hi guys! Just thought I'd write about this week's topic. Hmmm, so what can I do as a gamer? As always, I've come up with my own list...

1. Tell the world. I love playing WYD so it's so natural for me to tell other people how cool this game is. Whenever I hear people talking about games (even people I don't know) I always make it a point to tell them to check out WYD. Although playing with people from the other side of the world is fun, playing with people who you actually know in real life is more fun since you can bash their head if they don't return the weapon they borrowed and promised to return lol.


2. Suggest new community events. Just like what I've been doing in my recent posts, suggesting new events will give the GMs fresh ideas about what we gamers like to have implemented in-game. Wouldn't it be something if your suggestion was really turned into an event?


3. Join the events. I really don't understand why some people can complain about the events. Like this Wydian Journal event, some people are saying that it's unfair that we bloggers get laks and they don't. I mean why don't they join so they could also get the benefits of this event. I've been telling my friends in PH academy for so long now that they should join this awesome event but so far only NurseOnDuty has been caught with the blogging bug like me. So heads up to you nurse!


4. Be friendly with the noobs. One of the reasons I liked this game from the start is because people were so friendly and helpful when I started. Especially our operators in PH at that time - Citrix, SilmeriaPH and chester13. You guys are great! I really make it a point to help noobs in-game by showing them where the quests are or suggest builds and what skills they should get or where to hunt a particular item. What I don't do is give away golds and items because I believe one should work in order to be strong.


5. Play, play, play. All the telling, all the suggestions will all be useless if you don't play lol. I mean you can't come up with things to suggest or share your experiences if you don't play the game right. So the most important thing that a gamer can actually do is simply to chill out and play the game.

So that's about it for this update but before I end, I wanna share this pic of me, thyrene and DarkAgly with you all. Ciao!

Project WYDGlobal

Hi guys! Last time I told you all about my idea of the generals playing hide and seek with us. Well guess what? I've got another idea for a community event. I got this idea while watching the TV show "Project Runway". You all know "Project Runway" right? Well, it's a reality show hosted by Heidi Klum where all these gay people compete by making dresses for the gorgeous models.

Enough of "Project Runway" and on to my community event. The title of this event is "Project WYDGlobal" named after the tv show. This event is for the players to display their "gay side" lol their "creativity" I mean. The object is to design a new god armor for each of the four classes because let's face it having only 1 set of god armor to choose from is a bit boring. The participants can use photoshop, corel, paint, or pencil and pen or whatever they like as long as they can show the front side and backside of the armors plus another drawing of it being worn by a character. Four winners will be chosen. One for each class. The winning designs will be launched in-game as new armors and the four winners will get a perfect option set of the armor he/she designed plus ancient god weapon of choice. We can take this event to another level and make a weapon design competition. Same rules as the armors only this time participants design new weapons. What do you think CMs and GMs?
That's it for now. 'Til next update and see you all in-game. Ciao!
