HELP PLEASE: Guild Roster/Character Housekeeping

by Dett <BR>, 2 hours ago

Good day everyone.

I'm doing a bit of housekeeping on these forums to ensure new features and tools work from Guild Launch like: Rapid Raid, TOR Light/Dark Points, etc. In order to do that each character here needs to me assigned to it's owner's name on our forums. Evidently it does that now automatically...but a couple a years ago it didn't.

So now we have a long list of characters that people have added but they are "unclaimed" in the eyes of this forum. That's why I'm reaching out here and asking for people with better memory than me, to see if these character names ring a bell and help me align them to the proper owners.

Here are the characters that need owners:

Patherfinder Online Technology Demo on Kickstarter

by Dett <BR>, 10 days ago

FROM: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1675907842/pathfinder-online-technology-demo

[Dett - this is a killer team. If anyone can pull this off it will be these folks. Ryan is the guy who brought D&D 3E OGL to life; his marketing skills are crazy good. ]




We’ve heard it our entire careers: “Are you crazy?” “It can’t be done.” “Nobody would buy that.” “It’s impossible.” Yet we have succeeded in doing the impossible, time after time after time.

A roleplaying game where you play the monsters rather than the heroes? Are you serious?

Vampire: The Masquerade had its 20th anniversary last year.

Wait, you want to make a card game where you have to create your deck by buying booster packs of random trading cards? Nobody would buy that.

Magic: The Gathering is by far the most successful game ever in the history of tabletop gaming, and will celebrate 20 years in 2013.

You want to do WHAT? Make the Dungeons & Dragons game mechanics open source? That’ll kill the entire industry!

The Open Game License (OGL) revolutionized the RPG market in 2000, leading to hundreds of companies producing products compatible with the Third Edition of D&D.

Hold on—you’re going to create your own game to compete with Dungeons & Dragons? You’re wasting your time!

The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game is now the world’s best-selling tabletop RPG.

So when we told people we wanted to create a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game (MMO) for a fraction of the cost and development time of the big MMOs, you can imagine some of the responses we got.

It’s a pipe dream! Nobody can do that. It’s impossible.

Well, we’re the team that laughs in the face of impossible. Pathfinder Online is the project that will slay this dragon. And Goblinworks is the company that will make it happen. Impossible? We say nay!


Pathfinder Online is a hybrid sandbox/theme park-style MMO where characters explore, develop, find adventure and dominate a wilderness frontier in a land of sword and sorcery. The Pathfinder world is high fantasy in the tradition of epics like The Lord of the Rings, Conan, The Wheel of Time and Game of Thrones.

The Pathfinder setting includes many different classic and modern fantasy elements, from lost cities shrouded in misty jungles to decaying pyramids amidst deserts of burning sands to a fantastic island metropolis where folk from across the world live side by side with all manner of fantastic creatures. The Pathfinder world has a place for any story a player wants to tell. (For more information on the world of Pathfinder and the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, please visit http://paizo.com/pathfinder.)

Pathfinder Online’s robust trading system puts players in control of the world’s economy with player-created items, consumables, fortifications, and settlements. Character-controlled settlements can grow into full-fledged kingdoms that compete for resources as they seek to become the dominant force in the land, raising vast armies to hold their territory against the depredations of monstrous creatures, NPC factions, and other player characters.

Social organizations scale from small parties of a few adventurers to player nations inhabited by thousands. As settlements develop, the surrounding wilderness develops more complex and challenging features, including randomly generated encounters and resources as well as exciting scripted adventures.


For the past several months, the Goblinworks team has been working on three major projects. We’ve been recruiting talent to fill out our art and design teams. We’ve been working to make a final selection of the middleware that will drive Pathfinder Online. And we’ve been talking to investors to raise the capital we need to go into active production.

We announced Goblinworks and Pathfinder Online this past November because we wanted you, our community supporters, to hear about it first from us rather than getting hints from the grapevine that something was up at Paizo. Since that announcement, we’ve had amazing meetings with MMO publishers and developers, game designers, and potential investors.

We’ve had to do all three of these things in parallel because there are a couple of intersecting “chicken and egg” problems here. Investing at this stage of a project is very much about having faith in the people working on the project—and we have some amazing folks who want to work with us, but they have careers and family obligations, so they can’t just pick up and relocate to Redmond on the hope that we’ll get the funding we need. We’ll also need to show our investors specific details about our financials, which are affected tremendously by the deal we can secure for our middleware—the engine that runs the game. Our business experience and social networks have provided us access to some awesome middleware deals that aren’t readily available to outsiders, but sealing those deals is tied to the staff and funding issues as well. In short, we need to move forward before we can move forward.

And then the Internet Changed Everything. And the harbinger of this change is Kickstarter!

Seeing the Kickstarter success stories of Double Fine, The Order of the Stick, Wasteland 2, and Shadowrun Returns (to name just a few), we realized that Kickstarter could be just what we need to break through our roadblocks.


From the very beginning of Pathfinder Online, we’ve had a firm goal: we want a very close symbiosis with our customers, getting their feedback on our design ideas and, once the game is launched, iteratively adding content to the game based on their feedback. To provide transparency on our plans, we’ve been doing bi-weekly design blogs at https://goblinworks.com/blog, and we’ve been getting your feedback on the Goblinworks messageboards at http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/paizoPublishing/licensees/pathfinderOnline. We’ll continue to update the blogs and interact with our community throughout the Kickstarter process—and on into the future.

But right now, we need you to help us in a new way. We need you to help us PROVE to the world that our impossible dream is possible.


This Kickstarter will fund the Technology Demo of the Pathfinder Online Massively Multiplayer Online RPG. The Technology Demo will be fully playable, integrating account management, character creation, a virtual world server, multiple simultaneously connected clients, middleware used for rendering landscapes and characters, basic game mechanics, and player communications. The demo will only support a few simultaneous users exploring a couple of small locations, so the general public won't be able to play it, but we will produce a short video of the demo that everyone will be able to experience, and a special longer video exclusively for backers of this Kickstarter.

Your support of the Technology Demo will help us raise awareness of Pathfinder Online and will show potential investors what the game is really about. Funding this demo will also signal to potential partners that Pathfinder Online has an audience that's large enough and dedicated enough to allow the long-term success of the MMO. Nothing speaks louder than a ton of people putting up money to show their support of a new concept—that’s the genius element of Kickstarter!


Since this Kickstarter isn’t meant to fund the final video game, we had to think outside the box a little bit. Pathfinder Online is based on the world created by Paizo Publishing for their tabletop Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, so we thought it would be pretty cool to work with Paizo to create an RPG book that details one of the locations that Pathfinder Online characters will start in. We settled on the town of Thornkeep—that’s the very same “hive of scum and villainy” that the Pathfinder Online community named in our first online poll back in January! To make Thornkeep come alive, we’ve enlisted the talents of veteran game designer Rich Baker. Rich is going to give you everything you need to run a Pathfinder RPG game in Thornkeep, including the surrounding woods and a detailed dungeon below the ruins upon which Thornkeep was built. This very same dungeon will also be built as part of our technology demo, providing a great window into how tabletop design will make the transition to the digital medium.


And that’s just the first half of a 64-page book! The remaining sections will be written by our Pathfinder Online design team, letting you into Goblinworks’ design philosophy and giving you inside information gleaned from the development of our technology preview. The Thornkeep book will be produced to Paizo’s usual quality standards—perfectbound, printed in full color, with lots of all-new original artwork, including a brand new beautiful cover painting by fan-favorite Pathfinder artist Wayne Reynolds (the cover you see here is a mock-up).

We didn’t stop there either! We’ve built up a wide range of Goblinworks-themed merchandise, from posters and T-shirts to an entire day spent playing Pathfinder and dining out with the Goblinworks staff at one of the world’s finest restaurants! We have a reward level for every pocketbook, so give them a look and tell us what you think!


It’s very important that our technology preview keeps to a specific schedule, scope, and budget—we’re not looking to raise millions of dollars here—so we’ve deliberately limited the number of rewards available at most higher levels. If you miss some of these opportunities on this Kickstarter, don’t worry too much—we hope to offer other opportunities in the future!

$5: You'll be able to see an exclusive long video of the final Technology Demo. Additionally, in thanks for your backing, you’ll be listed in a Special Thanks section of the Goblinworks website as well as in the release of the Pathfinder Online game.

$15: You’ll get access to the 64-page PDF of the Thornkeep book. In addition, you’ll get the $5 reward level.

$30: You’ll become a member of the Goblin Squad. Goblin Squad members will be identified with a special icon on the Goblinworks messageboards, currently on paizo.com and later on goblinworks.com. The Goblin Squad will receive special alerts letting them know about new information first: announcements, blog posts, concept art, etc. We’ll give special priority to Goblin Squad members throughout the development process. This is your chance to identify yourself to us and to the community as a key supporter of Pathfinder Online. In addition, you’ll get the $15 reward level.

$50: You’ll get a printed copy of the Thornkeep book. In addition, you’ll get the $30 reward level.

$75: You’ll get a printed copy of the Thornkeep book autographed by author Rich Baker and members of the Goblinworks team, and a poster of the Thornkeep cover artwork by artist Wayne Reynolds. In addition, you’ll get the $30 reward level.

$100: You’ll get a special Goblinworks T-shirt. In addition, you’ll get the $75 reward level.

$250: You’ll become a Goblinworks Founder. To commemorate this, you will receive a stock-like certificate suitable for framing announcing your status. You will also receive a special Founder icon (replacing the $30 level icon) on the Goblinworks messageboards on paizo.com and goblinworks.com. You will also receive a deluxe Goblinworks Founder challenge coin minted specifically for us. In addition, you’ll get the $100 reward level.

$500: You’ll become a Goblinworks Executive Founder. To commemorate this status, you will receive a gorgeous granite plaque with stand that will look great on your desk or shelf. The plaque will incorporate artwork in a special thermal process that actually makes it part of the granite. You’ll also receive a very nice leather messenger bag with an embossed Goblinworks logo. Since many GMs now use iPads or Kindles in their games, we are also including a nifty e-gadget portfolio that has a place to put your tablet, a pad of paper, and pockets for things like dice and pens. You’ll also receive a special Executive Founder icon (replacing the $250 and $30 level icons) on the Goblinworks messageboards on paizo.com and goblinworks.com. In addition, you’ll get the $250 reward level.

$1,000: You’ll be welcomed as part of a very small group of alpha playtesters in a closed playtest of Pathfinder Online. This will be a great chance for you to give us direct input on how Pathfinder Online ends up looking and playing in its final incarnation. (If, for some reason, Pathfinder Online never gets to its alpha playtest stage, you will be refunded $500. We don’t expect that to happen, but we want you to be comfortable knowing that you’ll get what you pay for!) In addition, you’ll get the $500 reward level.

$2,000: You’ll be welcomed to Goblinworks HQ in Redmond, Washington for a full day of interaction with our staff and a chance to play the technology demo. Your day will start off with a presentation by the Goblinworks staff showing our progress on Pathfinder Online. You will get a chance to talk with and ask questions of our staff and get firsthand insight into our plans. You will enjoy lunch while mingling with the entire staff of both Goblinworks and Paizo. After lunch, you will be the first folks outside of Goblinworks and Paizo to play in our technology demo, getting your first hands-on experience with Pathfinder Online. Backers at this level are responsible for their own transportation and lodging. Goblinworks will do its best to host this one-day festivity at a time that works best for the most backers, but we can’t guarantee that it will work for everyone. There will only be one Goblinworks HQ Day, and it is incumbent upon the backers at this level to be there on the selected day. In addition, you’ll get the $1,000 reward level.

$5,000: You’ll get the ultimate one-on-one experience at Paizo and Goblinworks HQ! Your day starts with a five-hour Pathfinder RPG gaming session with the celebrity GM of your choice: Rich Baker, Jason Bulmahn, James Jacobs, Erik Mona, or Wes Schneider. Sessions will be run for six players; you can fill the other five slots with your own guests, or we will fill them with folks from Paizo and Goblinworks. The adventure you play will be open to negotiation between the backer and the GM. Later that evening, you’ll share a dinner at the world-famous Herbfarm restaurant with Ryan Dancey, Lisa Stevens, and the celebrity GM. The Herbfarm (www.theherbfarm.com) has been dubbed one of the best restaurants in the world from such varied sources as Zagat, Frommer’s, Travel & Leisure, the James Beard Foundation, and National Geographic. Its nine-course dinners last more than three hours—plenty of time to enjoy the company of your dinner guests. We will regale you with stories from our times in this industry and answer your questions in an intimate setting. All in all, a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Backers of this level are responsible for their own transportation and lodging. Dates for this experience will be worked out to the mutual satisfaction of both the patron and Goblinworks. In addition, you’ll get the $2,000 reward level.

MMO: The Elder Scrolls Online Announced

by Dett <BR>, 17 days ago

FROM: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2012/05/03/june-cover-revealed-the-elder-scrolls-online.aspx



June Cover Revealed: The Elder Scrolls Online

Long rumored and much anticipated, The Elder Scrolls Online is finally being unveiled in the June issue of Game Informer. In this month's cover story we journey across the entire land of Tamriel, from Elsweyr to Skyrim and everywhere in between.

Developed by the team at Zenimax Online Studios, The Elder Scrolls Online merges the unmatched exploration of rich worlds that the franchise is known for with the scale and social aspects of a massively multiplayer online role-playing game. Players will discover an entirely new chapter of Elder Scrolls history in this ambitious world, set a millennium before the events of Skyrim as the daedric prince Molag Bal tries to pull all of Tamriel into his demonic realm.

"It will be extremely rewarding finally to unveil what we have been developing the last several years," said game director and MMO veteran Matt Firor, whose previous work includes Mythic's well-received Dark Age of Camelot. "The entire team is committed to creating the best MMO ever made – and one that is worthy of The Elder Scrolls franchise."

An in-depth look at everything from solo questing to public dungeons awaits in our enormous June cover story – as well as a peek at the player-driven PvP conflict that pits the three player factions against each other in open-world warfare over the province of Cyrodiil and the Emperor's throne itself.

Come back tomorrow morning for a brief teaser trailer from Zenimax Online and Bethesda Softworks, and later on in the afternoon for the first screenshot of the game. Over the course of the month, be sure to visit our Elder Scrolls Online hub, which will feature new exclusive content multiple times each week. You'll meet the three player factions, see video interviews with the creative leads, and much more.

The Elder Scrolls Online is scheduled to come out in 2013 for both PC and Macintosh.
