Hrin’s Updates: GE Raid Party Mini Site & Colony War 101!

Hi guys!

The GE RAID party is just two weeks away! Pre-register for the party here to avoid disappointment. A mini site has been set up here to showcase all the events that will be happening that day. Updates will constantly be pumped into that website so do continue to check every now and then.

1) Are you using the right channel?

Yes, we are in still in our pre-open beta stage so there are still bugs and localization errors that need to be fixed. In order for any bugs to be processed in an effective way, we need you guys to help us out by submitting them in the proper channel, over here at the Support Section> Game Feedback. The same goes for reporting any player abuse cases and for seeking any help for technical problems encountered. Please remember to enable the javascript in your browser to be able to log in.

Each of these tickets you submit are serialized for greater accountability purposes and our customer service team actually answers every single one of them! For the old timers in the GE community, thanks for continually helping out in the forums by directing people to that link. Do continue educating those who are new to GE about this section. :)

3) Hall Of Fame Contest

The ‘Hall Of Fame’ contest ends tomorrow! What’s not to love about having your GE family portrait and family name displayed along the walls of the real life ‘Hall Of Fame’ and having thousands of people eyeballing them? The best thing about it is that these players get their portraits mailed (worldwide) to them after the event. What are you waiting for? Hurry and submit those screenshots of yours!

4) Quest Station Volunteers for GE Raid Party @ Zouk

Since we will be having real life quest stations at the GE Raid party, we are looking for some volunteers to help out in facilitating these quest stations. Do email Singapore Community Manager, RohNaga at rohnaga.ge@gmail.com to sign up!

5) First Colony War

The very first colony war will be on 8 June 2007, Friday, 2000hrs-2200hrs (GMT+8).

I’ve written up some basics on what colony war is all about here. For those of you who have not joined a faction yet, you will be missing out on one of the most exciting things about GE since you will only be able to take part in colony wars if you are in a faction. The faction recruitment section is over here.

Do read through this section carefully since the culture of a faction matters greatly when trying to make your choice. After all, what you hope to derive out of GE is best achieved when your personal goals are in sync with that of your faction’s culture.

6) Faction Visitation

I’ve been getting a lot of emails lately asking me advice on which factions are the “best”. All I can say is that “Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder” and that “One man’s meat is another man’s poison.” Proverbs aside, one of the best ways to find out about the culture of a faction is by “squadding” up with various factions’ members in order to understand the dynamics a little better.

Nevertheless, in light of this, I have spoken with the other Community Managers and we will be visiting various factions for a duration of 2 weeks and doing write-ups about our experience in order to bring you guys some insights into the various cultures of the GE factions that exist.
