A Fireside Chat with Holy Crit

Phrontistery

i was making waves u was surfing in 'em
Dear Twink Info,

I asked Phrontisery to post this for me. These are my words not his.

I wanted to fill you guys in on the sort of fun we have in Holy Crit.
You've seen us around the bracket and you've heard all sorts of things about us
(some members more than others) but we've never had a significant presence on this site.

Tomorrow at 4 server time we are having a 24s olympics. This includes a big wargames 3v3 tournament
for our members and other fun activities.
Prizes include flags of ownage, foam sword rack, rocket chicken, and other cool items.
Anyone who has a 24 on azuremyst is welcome to join.
We do these sorts of activities regularly.


Say what you will about holy crit, but let me tell you the facts:

We are currently the most active 24s guild hands down. Just tonight we had over 20 level 24s online at the same time.
We are an inclusive guild above all. We care about having fun, whatever your class or dedication to the bracket.
We have a massive gold fund which goes towards supplying free BiS enchants to those who need them.
Our guild bank is always stocked with potions and twink items.
We help our members nonstop, including gnomeregan runs and passing along rare BoEs.
We have a group of people who are here to have fun, rather than tell you how to play the game.
Some of us farm, some of us don't. We don't care how you play, we realize it's just a game.


We have survived in this bracket for YEARS, despite our fair share of haters.
This tells you that our guild environment is one of nurture rather than hatred.
Guilds come and go but Holy Crit has been here in the beginning, and is going nowhere
because we know how to do 24s right. (by having fun)

There is always an open invitation for all twinks and levelers in our guild. There is always a home for you in Holy Crit. I encourage you to talk to me directly in WoW if you have any questions.


xoxo

Hey, just want to answer to this. Don't know if this was innocent or trolling, but not true anyway !
For last premade, we were like 45 logged at the same time in gsc

P.S : But you maybe spoke about US ?
 
The day you had 20 members online was the greatest day of your guild.
For us it was just a Tuesday.


Not that size matters or anything, and Quality>Quantity being way superior.

This was taken a few days ago without even being much bothered.

Feel free to check out our own site! Home | Gurubashi Surf Club (Just in beta stage-getting a real domain, and still working on some technicalities)

- No trolling or bad intentions meant with my post!

We noticed!
Just felt like it was a more generalization, - and got the urge to drop the pants and whip the genitals out...
I apologize for my immaturity!

Best regards

It said "We are currently the most active 24s guild hands down. Just tonight we had over 20 level 24s online at the same time." I was in vent with them that night and that was just the 24s not counting non twinks of all levels.

As Brego said, Holy Crit has almost 700 characters in it with 436 unique accounts - I was referring to our active 24s roster which is larger than 20 - we have a huge number of active twinks, but at the time I was posting I was using that as an example of the sort of 24s population you can expect at a given time.

I encourage you to check out our roster for specifics:
http://us.battle.net/wow/en/guild/azuremyst/Holy_Crit/roster

some highlights:
255 level 24 members
70 member logins in last 5 hours as of time of this post
211 in the last 1 day or less

I can vouch that Holy Crit is very active. I had a couple twinks in the guild for a few weeks. They are very active and even though I didn't need or want help, help was offered numerous times by various members. There are a few with toxic attitudes in the guild, but there are also just as many, if not more twinks with good attitudes. I didn't leave because of the guild or any members really, I left because I wasn't interested in running 5 man 24 groups and that said, I didn't need the guild to enjoy myself. I found some old friends from my original battlegroup putting a guild together and decided to move over there. If not for that, I'd still be solo pugging under the Holy Crit guild tag.

Holy Critlympics were a huge success! We had 21 participants show up. Next time we will be streaming them live.

Grats to Team 1 for winning the tournament today! we had 7 teams of 3 competing in the 24s Olympics. The wargames were brutal but a team of champions emerged consisting of Lookmeupscrub, Yaholy and Vampyr. Prizes that went out included two flags of ownership, rocket chicken, sky golem, foam sword rack, magic ogre idol, and 2k gold to all participants. Activities included a foam sword battle and a naked level 1 race to gurubashi arena. I will post a couple picture highlights :) I'm proud of everyone for being such good sports.
