I can picture us getting 3 level 98's each and then once it starts, just getting like 5xp to get 99's. I want us to get our own Logo SO BADLY. --------------------  | ||||

Turning your focus towards skilling would be an insult to all the hard work people have put in to get WG back on the PvP scene. --------------------    | ||||

I just mean, we don't have the skillers we used to at the moment - plus a lot of members are posting inactivity with exams (any British fall in here). Think it would not give positive publicity - as Vephy has pointed out. I am personally more than happy to see WG competitively compete in more than just combat, but this isn't the right moment to attempt it. -------------------- | ||||

Yeah we did both things moderately well. The fact is WG is and never was a top skilling clan of any sort. We have maybe 1 or 2 people who MIGHT be able to compete and that's it. We're just not an intense skilling clan, and there's no way we're going to be able to compete in this. We'll lose to large clans because they have more people/skillers just by the law of averages. Skilling clans will beat us because well they like skilling obviously. The only reason WG wins Skill Olympics is because we have a few dedicated people each year that win it for us/the other clan is worse than us/WG can get off its ass once a year and train for longer than 5 minutes -------------------- July 5, 2007 - June 27, 2011 | ||||

 IRC Nickname: Dallar Group: Event Leader Posts: 1899 Member No.: 1957 Joined: July 16, 2009 Total Events Attended: 137 | I'm in too. Seriously, yes maybe focus should be on PvP but doing things like this would show that we are very active. Maybe we are not the best skillers but we did try and we will be respected for trying. .. And just because our main focus is PvP I don't see anything negative about doing a little skilling. People won't get bad at fighting because of this. This is why I prefered the sectors.. But meh.. I'm more a skiller than a fighter. I really am in the wrong clan but there is nothing to do about it  --------------------  Click me if you need cheering up - I guarantee happiness will blossom | ||||

Joe's post really sums it up. WG don't mind training for the Skills Olympics as basically if it is massively hyped up, we have a good chance of winning. Like, when I used to arrange them I wouldn't have bothered scheduling one with RS' #1 skilling clan as it would have been pointless and therefore no fun. At previous RS skilling competitions, WG has always done really very badly, even in the first Skilling Cup, where we actually hyped it up and trained very hard for it. There are just better clans out there. I love these competitions myself, but I think WG is finally in a place where we have more of a chance at succeeding in PvP. --------------------    | ||||

 IRC Nickname: rachellove Group: Council Posts: 6955 Member No.: 173 Joined: January 31, 2008 Total Events Attended: 305 | I have to agree that it would be really cool to get the logo . . . Unfortunately, I usually see us go into a decline after a skill war type thing. WG doing this for longer than a few days might not be a great thing for the clan overall. There is a lot to consider before saying yes or no. --------------------  Thank you Garrett and Dallar. “The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them.

Maybe 3-4 members max...  I don't want it dominating the attention for a week though. That would be bad. -------------------- | ||||

 IRC Nickname: Bgpgraebner Group: Higher Guardian Posts: 780 Member No.: 2457 Joined: November 17, 2010 Total Events Attended: 51 | Making a skilling event, making effort to make it work out and then have nothing from it, as I have seen that WG doesn't always come out well in skilling events, is just a waste of time - I'd consider doing something PvP related - Joe said it all. We WILL lose to full-out skilling clans, just like we would lose to RoT in a full-out CWRI. -------------------- SEX. Now that I got your attention, please read my post. | ||||
