After re-reading Logga's original post it would seem most of us only have given our game ID's.
The question/s still remain what are we(guild) are going to be doing come launch? I mean it will be chaos come launch. Different timezones, pre-launch date (25th) vs standard launch (28th), queue's and any others you can think of.
* Do we decide to create our mains and go to one starting area and complete that and then move on to the next as a guild?
* Do we reach a certain level in our own starting area then meet up?
* Does each race stay in there own starting area and group with other guild-mates there? I guess same as above.
* Do we all go our merry way until official launch then meet?
* etc etc etc
The possibilities are endless but do indeed need to be addressed before launch. How about some ideas, polls anything!
This is a different game here than what we are use to playing. The personal stories alone make it a challenge. I for one do not have the right answers let alone questions.
What are your thoughts?
P.S. = These are just my 2 coppers worth, which can be thrown out!

Hello ladies and germs,
to answer how I feel here about your last post Ashnak, here are my thoughts.
Like any MMO release that I have played, I will likely hop on voice chat to see who is on and who is in my "gaming zone" and then if possible group up and quest together. It is very difficult at the launch of any game for everyone from the same guild to group together since some will be playing in different starting arears than others.
We will eventually come to the same zones at which point we can then join up with other guildies.
The question is who will be hoping on GW2 and join RVR/PVP? PVE players? - I will likely be doing mostly PVE at first so any PVE guildies on at same tiem as me will likely be asked to group up.

I added the following to my original post: Logga's Itinerary:- Sign in as soon as possible, make my main character (human ranger), and complete the introduction instance.
- Start completing reknown hearts right outside Divinity's Reach until I have enough gold to start the guild
- Start adding everyone's game accounts to my contacts and simultaneously send them a guild invite (not sure if it will allow me to do so if they haven't signed in yet? will find out on the 25th.). I'll also appoint some officer's like Morgwath and Wraithguard to help send out invites should I not be available.
- Once the guild is established, I will look to group up with some guildies and continue questing events and hearts!
To help coordinate and facilitate guild activity, I think it would be great if we could all answer the following questions: - What race will my first character be?
- What do I want to do first? 1.)Start questing/eventing with guildies 2.)Play solo or focus on my personal storyline 3.)Start PvP asap
- Would you be interested in participating in an "O eM G, I can't believe GW2 is finally here!!!@%!:}$" Meet And Greet on the 25th around 8pm CST?
I think if we answer these questions, we can start finding common ground between us all and coordinate with each other accordingly. One thing to keep in mind is that we can all group up VERY early on regardless of race by using the Lion's Arch Gates. After each character's intro instance, they are dropped right outside their respective race's main city. Also remember that voice chat will be our biggest friend!

What race will my first character be? Asura
What do I want to do first? 1.)Start questing/eventing with guildies 2.)Play solo or focus on my personal storyline 3.)Start PvP asap?
I plan on doing all the reown hearts/points of interest/vistas in each zone before moving onto the next one. I want to get 100% in each zone. Would be great meeting up with fellow guildies if anyone else is going to be an Asura. I also plan on leveling both my crafting skills as i level. So I won't be rushing thru zones.
Would you be interested in participating in an "O eM G, I can't believe GW2 is finally here!!!@%!:}$" Meet And Greet on the 25th around 8pm CST?
I wouldnt mind participating in a meet and greet.

1) Asura 2) PvE - I'm gonna attempt to complete each area before moving on; although the vista may get skipped. Having said I would still like to try out WvW with a group 3) Yup

1) sylvari 2) pve for sure, like other people have said I want to complete each zone before moving on and would love to be grouped with guildies while doing so. 3) absolutely! As long as I can get online at that point. I might be out of town on the 25th so I might not be able to make it :/

i shall be Jade.4573 think my first character will be a norn hunter... I want to do alot of pve, explore stuff - find lots of new pets I am also interested in pvp too...although i usually hate to do that alone! try some dungeons once we get there (ok,, maybe not on first day- lol) i plan on the 25th....setting the alarm, waking up at 3 to at least get the names i want, then i might go back to sleep...... not sure of exactly what times I will be on that weekend though, as I will be over at my boyfriends mom's house that weekend. I did hook her up with wireless, so I'll have my computer, and I'm sure I'll sneak on - i wouldnt be able to keep away ;D

What race will my first character be? I am undecided if my first character is going to be a human thief or an Asura warrior.
What do I want to do first? I have no plans other than leveling up. Not picky where I do that at.
Would you be interested in participating in an "O eM G, I can't believe GW2 is finally here!!!@%!:}$" Meet And Greet on the 25th around 8pm CST? I would enjoy that very much.
