I am Ineligible.. Ineligeble..Inelable.. I blame American Education...

Our Favorite Dev Andy has posted a thread saying they're looking for more Core Testers, I thought to myself.. "Hey! This is a wonderful oppurtunity...oppertunity..oppartunity...GAHH.  I was going to fill out an application myself, but then I read over.. everything.. Andy's Text is in Italics, mind is in bolded normal text. and in parenthesis.

We're looking for more players to fill the Ranks of the Core Test group! Are you an avid player of WAR? (YES!) Are you Hardcore? Casual? (Uhh...both) Something in between? (Yeah! This!) We're looking for your input and feedback to help make WAR all it can be! (Hooray!)

What is the Core Test Program? (Something I aspire to be at this moment in time.)

The Core Test Program is a small, hand selected group of players (Speshul people!) chosen for the capability to provide insightful (Uh...), intelligent (Uh oh..) and critical feedback (I volunteer Eka) while at the same time remaining rational and constructive (Eka no longer applies). Players are chosen for their contribution and continual involvement in the Community (Like.. people with blogs?). All Core Testers are required to agree to a Non Disclosure Agreement (or NDA) prior to being given access.(I can spell Cat!)

Should you submit yourself as a candidate, please be aware that your in game account and forum account will be reviewed as part of the process
(During the Summer I got a ban for something.. I think it was trolling, I'm Eliminated!).

Want to know more?
(Not really...I'm already in tears)

Send Andy Belford (Me!) a PM (Can it have emotes in it?) with the following information:
  • In Game Account Name (DO NOT SEND THE PASSWORD!) (MMhmm ok)
  • Age? (SHIT)
  • What kind of a player do you consider yourself to be? (hardcore, casual, other?) (Mixture of the two who likes kittens)
  • Approximately how many hours a week do you spend playing WAR?(Ahh hell...5-10 hours per day.. 35-70 hrs per week, well I need to do something else don't I)
  • How long have you been playing WAR? (Uhh.. I think it was January 2009 I started)
  • What MMO's have you played outside of WAR? (Uh... none)
  • What Careers do you consider yourself capable in? (None DoK)
  • What's your highest Renown Rank Character?(82)
  • Why do you think that you would be an asset to the Core Tester program? (Uhh... I can... dance...)

Thanks and I look forward to reviewing your submissions! (...................)





PS: So no one freaks out, all the mispellings at the start were intentional.

Conan is my idol.

YES! IT'S TRUE! I waited about NINE MONTHS for last night. I was going to make a post about this last night but I was to busy giggling at the TV starting at 5:30 all the way until conan was on. Waiting... just waiting while giggling...
The following picture is an actual picture of me before conan started.



OH GOD. That's right, Warhammer blog, WARHAMMER WARHAMMER.
BLAH!
So I came home today and was really happy that there was a test on the PTS tonight... but then I go to the herald to see what time it was at.  And turns out it's postponed for tomorrow.  This makes me a sad Wall-E. But Atleast they didn't throw out a test altogether.
IMO Mythic is doing one thing right...
Putting me on the Blogger roll call..
No just kidding (However this was extremely correct of them), But what's really right that they're doing, is letting us help test it for them. I can't recall another MMO I have played where the devs let you test the content (Then again this is my first MMO)

On a side note that I have not yet mentioned yet: Conan is awesome. Very awesome.

FREAKING EDIT: OH MY JESUS! HOW DID I MISS THIS!
http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/230/index/5209814/1
YES! YES! YES! MY DREAMS HAVE COME TRUE!

RvR Tier Bracket Adjustment: WOW! Love it, makes t1 non twinkable now (well twinks will get owned) and all the other tiers will be........ interesting... gonna make soloing at low ranks IMPOSSIBLE anymore.  T4 rank 32+ has been fixed though.

Scenerio Matchmaking: Oh god, I don't want to be paired with all the PROmades ;-): Well guess I'd better stop pugging. But even so, this makes me extremely happy and this is awesome.  If it shows your rating this will also put a halt to people thinking a person is good, yet another person thinks that same player is bad, because rating will say otherwise.

Ease of aquiring gear: They're making gear WAAAAY easier to get, which frankly... will be epicly awesome ^_^

Gold Bag Opt outs: YES Only being able to opt out of gold bag has finally come this makes me want to put a kitty in the dryer and watch it go round and round and round and round and round and round and...
/happy opera

How the Devs probably feel about the fanbase.

You know theres things that the devs cannot say, that they DESPERATELY want to say, but they can't because that would be unprofessional.
The following are situations, and what they would like to say.

Situation One: They're reading over the forums, and there are some nasty comments about them spread out everywhere.  They're feeling quite sad, and need a banana.  However, the Mythic giant Fridge of bananas IS ALL OUT OF BANANAS. They're feeling a bit POed, so they go back to the forums to update the Marauder changes. After that they go back to looking at posts to lock on the forums.  Then they see a thread titled "Mythic Sucks".  They go in, and basically what it says is "MIFFIC, YOO'Z MEAN, YEAH.. YEAH.. YOOZ WAAAY MEAN, YOO BANNED ME BECAUSE I SPEED HACK, EVEN DOH I DOHN'T SPEED HACK"
They look him up and try to find his case, but they find out... he isn't banned.. he's just trolling.. This is where they want to yell at the community...

This is what they'd like to say to us. 

Situation 2: It's the Q&A after the Public Test on Warpstone!  They're excited to answer all our questions about classes and content and fruit and whatever.  And they're going down the list.  Then we get to someones comment that says something like... "What are you doing about the Magus, we're getting nerfed and nerfed and I think you guys suck at making this game, I've been playing games for 3 years, that means I'm a pro gamer, and I know everything about balance and stuff... oh and I play a magus"
In the office on vent, Andy is /facepalming himself, because people who can't one shot ironbreakers complain.  Really, what Mythic would like to say to the player who can't one shot ironbreakers is...

Clark Gable does put it very nicely.

Situation 3: They're having a PM back and forth with a player who seems to not understand, DoKs are not underpowered, and are not going to get a buff anytime soon, BUT the player is terrifyingly persistent, insisting that he can't heal as good as the rr 80 warrior priest.
Once again Mythic sends him a PM saying that DoK is not getting a buff.  But he persists, and asks again.. Mythic says...

Wait.. wait... A pure picture can't contain this moment.


Please, click on that and see what Mythic has to say. (Contains Profanity)

Situation 4: Some troll is going around to all websites posting crap about Mythic, The Devs catch wind of these after restocking their banana fridge.  They're really mad at this, how they really hate trolls, as seen in Situation one. What they'd like to say is.


And they ban that guys account.  FOR...EV....ER......
