[Oct 1st sexytime update: We got interviewed by TenTonHammer! Click here.]
Have you ever said any of the following?
- "Man! I wish I could play this game with only one hand*. I keep having to put my beer down to fight bad guys."
- "If I hear one more teenager screaming orders at me over Vent I'm going to start a foundation dedicated to enforcing mandatory vasectomies for stupid parents."
- "I'm tired of guilds with play time requirements, DKP systems, or hordes of drama-laden idiots running around getting in the way of my good times."
If so, then the WildCards may be the place for you! We're a bunch of casual players interested in doing our own thing and having a good time while doing it. Group, or don't group. Focus on a main, or level a bunch of alts. PvP, or PvE; we're here to have fun and hang out in good company - not have end game content on farm within a month.
The WildCards are part of the Unrepentant gaming community; we're a bunch of overgrown kids in our 30's (with some 20-somethings and 40-somethings for seasoning) who came together because we think the company you keep is more important than the games you play. You can find Unrepentant players in a whole mess of MMOs (we currently have branches in Star Trek: Online, Aion, Champs, DDO, FFXIV, and WoW), and we're also active in Steam games such as L4D2, TF2 and Borderlands. We even have our own Minecraft server!
If you're looking for a good group of folks to goof around with while kicking a generous amount of butt, then begin your journey toward Ultimate Sexiness by clicking this link.
Now go! Hunt! Kill Skuls!
(*If you read, "Man! I wish I could play this game with only one hand", and your mind IMMEDIATELY went somewhere else with the second half of that sentence, you are *definitely* the kind of person that would fit in with us. Not because we're perverts, but because you've got just the kind of flexible wit we appreciate.
Also, because we're perverts.)

What's this game you all got me signed up for?? Men in tights shooting fake laser beams at at each other? Like an SCA convention playing laser tag if you ask me. But what the hell, I'll play any game with you hoodlums.

"Whether he likes it or not, a mans character is stripped at the poker table; if the other players read him better than he does, he has only himself to blame. Unless he is both able and prepared to see himself as others do, flaws and all, he will be a loser in cards, as in life." ~Anthony Holden

Sweet! I prefer Stella Artois, but honestly, I'll drink most any Belgian beer.
...
I *did* mention the "buy me a 6-pack to get in" requirement in the pitch, didn't I?

BTW it's Fuller's ESB or nothin'.

Great Job Fritz... Now all we're going to recruit is a bunch of drunks! Way to get the thread started off right... I can see it now.
A hand of WildCards drops in on the scene just as evil-doers are about to blow a hole in the prison wall and release hundreds of hardened criminals onto the streets! Except only one makes it to the right location and he's got bloodshot eyes, is still speaking with a slur and has a couple beer nuts in his beard. The four others never left the HQ because two were arguing over which beer is better, one was AFK getting more beer and the last had been AFK passed out on the floor for 2 hours but no one noticed.
We need to recruit at least one or two sober individuals. I'm trying to remember why though... Years of hard drinking will do that to you.
Remember the plan:
1. Post Funny Recruitment Thread.
2. Bump thread with continuing witty banter
3. Sucker Recruits with visions of fun loving gaming community
4. Start Imposing mild entry requirements (beer, petty cash, "favors")
5. Pass out Pie/Cake
6. Start imposing bizarre entry requirements (must submit application in Thai or Bulgarian, bleed a chicken,"favors")
7. Reveal true purpose of the Cult
8. Pass out Kool-Aid
Only one recruit and already wanting beer... Seems to early.
What's the matter gramps? The home not supplying enough butterscotch candy? Bingo night let out early? Missed first place in your shuffleboard tournament?
Quit soakin' up the youth and vibe, man! You're bringin' my young, spirited rebelliousness down...
But... Welcome to Champions Online and the pantheon of Super Teams, I guess. Try not to break your hip, pops.
Anyway, they scrambled the Weather Channel, and someone scratched our Matlock DVDs. We're out for blood.
And Polygrip. Blood and Polygrip.
...
Dangnation! GET OFFA MY LAWN!
As one of the youngest members(at 19) of the guild, I can say that it is a lot of fun as long as you don't mind occasional references to things that were old before you were born.
My god. I feel so dirty now. You weren't even alive during the Reagan administration. Your whole life was nothing but Bush and Clinton until Obama got elected.
I think the new age minimum will be 25. If you're not old enough to get a discount on your car insurance, you're no good to us.
We should have an SG full of drunk perverts in no time. If grown men drinking beer in spandex is wrong then I don't want to be right.
To our Theta Dragon Super Donkey person. Careful I might actually be your father... :eek:
If you're ever in Vegas, check out the stout at the Sin City Brewing Co.
Not too busy, starts off with a nice bite but doesn't set up camp in your mouth. I could (and have) drink that stuff all day.
However you are like Grond so I suppose no good will come of this.
Perhaps your major concern is you get stuck behind walls and we wouldn't assist with finding your way around them? :cool:
No, I said we're being portrayed as a bunch of drunks. Which isn't entirely true. Some of us are crack addicts as well. We count on them to just climb over the walls kill the nemesis a good two, three times and bring back all the loot for us.
But seriously, we do have plenty of other interests besides drunken revelry. And I'll get back to you on what they are as soon as I make them up.
We are looking for quality, balanced people that enjoy team work and fun!
That's capital "C". Back in your box, Mantiss!
Also: ANYONE that uses the number "2" instead of going through the massive, overwhelmingly difficult task of typing out all three agonizing letters in the word "too" would never ever ever be welcome in the WildCards.
Or, to put it in your vernacular:
u hav 2 b ejucaded 2 b a WildCard.
Cheers!
You guys must take me! I have the perfect character for this group. Count me in.
PS: When I say "you must take me" I mean it in a very macho and hetero kind of way, not the in-a-dark-alley kind of way.
PPS: Unless it's mandatory.
PPPS: Or I´m REALLY drunk.
PPPPS: Or it's a Wednesday.
I shall wait. Naked!
So, for you (and Jupiter, and Chaplain), and anyone else interested in our little band of surly miscreants, the next step is very simple:
1. Chill.
When open beta starts we'll catch up with you. I'll be sure to add your account names to my friends list (or I'll pm you here and ask for character names). We'll play around together in beta, and if you guys have fun, then we'll take the party with us into launch. We have about a dozen of our Unrepentant people joining us here, so you'll already be in "good" (by which I mean "dubiously entertaining") company at launch.
If you're interested in learning more about us now, or are just interested in accessing our massive archive of disturbing tentacle pornography, then you can head over to www.unrepentantgaming.org, and poke around. We have a short application, but as soon as you read it you'll realize it's not really an "application"; it's more an "amusing personality quiz" that lets you tell us about yourself, and gives you a good sense of what kind of people we are.
(Hint: there is a question that asks "What is your Zombie Plan?" Frankly, this question is the most important question you'll answer. Failure to have a Zombie Plan tells us that you're not sufficiently prepared for the upcoming Zombie Apocalypse, and will thus be of questionable use to us. We'll still take you in the guild, but please understand that when we make your official guild title "Bait" that we mean it in a very friendly, non "we're feeding you to them as we make our getaway" way.)
And no, that counts as a zombie plan. I always tell people: everyone has a zombie plan. If yours isn't very good... well then, you can always go with the default plan: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c265/Dao_Jones/Misc%20Stuff/dayofthedead10.gif
If I like what I see in game during OB, you'll get the honor of reading my application. Which I have to say would be quite a treat.
Helpful tip: I don't like walnuts in my brownies, and I wear a large.
Though at one point in my life I convinced a Korean lady of the night that I was a Baptist minister, and proceeded to excise the demons from her soul after I laid waste to her naughty zone. My buddies could hear me in the adjacent rooms screaming 'The power of Christ compels you!' at the top of my lungs. Though this may not be the place for such things...
Now only $19.95 with shipping and handling, join us.... or join them!
Just post it here. We'll get back to you.
I always get duped this way! Not this time. I'll PM you the number. It's safer that way.
My first character is going to Epoch.
You may very well get my second.
edit: BACK ONLINE.
and Mantiss likes My Little Pony.
edit: Dao too.
That is all. (edit: apparently there was more)
Consider me applied!
If my zombie plan is to help cause Zombie Apocalypse... does that count? Or what about becoming "King Zombie" ? So many zombie plans and so few alternate Earths to experiment on....... sigh!
You can say that again! That was one of the most important things I got out of my time in.
If you ever apply on our website down the road, be sure to mention that submariners enjoy being full of seamen. Tell him Dao told you to say that. It'll cost me some awesome BBQ kebabs next time we barbecue, but imagining him sputtering indignantly as he types out a lengthy diatribe on the merits of service makes it worth it.
Anyway, we're happy to have people run with us in the beta to "road test" the group. We'll give you our vent info via PM or /tell, and you can see if we're to your liking. We're not gonna be all douchey like some of these other guilds, and expect you to blind apply, type out some stupidly long application, have a vent interview, then serve for some 6 month apprenticeship or something stupid like that.
Some of these people make joining a guild more difficult than applying for a house loan. :rolleyes:
[Edit] Dahrgahr, you suck. My love of small, plastic horse toys is my business, and my business alone.
Oh Fizzy, one day you'll come for me, and take me off to Friendship Garden!
OK, enough of the nostalgic flash backs.
Carry on.
Sure would be fine to road test during Open Beta. I was in closed Beta, but saldy... that is over now. Just waiting on Monday. By all means send me the info in a PM and I'll meet up with y'all in the game.
I've registered on your boards as Corson, which will by the name of my Munitions main.
10 years? Slow learner eh?
We actually have a pretty good contingent of former and current military to commiserate with.
