Guild Spotlight: Something to strive for?

http://elderscrollsonline.com/en/news/post/2014/04/30/guild-spotlight--the-noore?ref=news-list

Just noticed this come up on my news page today and thought it would be a good accomplishment if we could get Blue Skooma in the guild spotlight. It appears we already have established many of the things the Noore are attempting (Scavenger Hunt, Races). I think with the live auctions though, much of the server are aware of the Blue Skooma Company.

Reason why I bring it up here is so everyone could answer the questions listed on the Page, and in the end, Ri'sari and Ja'sarr could collaborate and choose the best answers. We could all collaborate on how to answer them: (In character, out of character)

I agree. When I saw the announcement about that guild spotlight, my first thought was "This should be us!" :)

P.S. If you ever need more writers, I'm always looking for opportunities to show the world my Major isn't boring lol (English, writing conc.)

I couldn't get on for a while, so I decide to go through and answer the questions the way Qa'han would. Lol.

Whats your Guild's Name? Does that name have a special history of significance?
I actually think Ri'sari and J'sarr would be better to answer this question.

When was your guild formed? Tell us the story of how the guild came to be.
Same

What alliance has your guild sworn fealty to?
Our humble company is primarily based in the Aldmeri Dominion company, yet we hope to soon expand Tameriel Wide after the war.

Why did you choose that alliance?
Ri'sari and J'sarr

How many members does your guild currently have?
The company is currently 412 strong.

Does your guild have a website?
Our company communicates through Blueskooma.com, where news of upcoming events are posted, and pictures and summaries of company related happenings are posted.

What times and days is the guild most active?
Many of us are night prowlers, preferring to schedule events and gatherings around 9:00pm EST. That being said, we often still have a have many numbers clocking in between 3:00pm EST to the wee hours of the night. Random gatherings and meeting outside the scheduled ones are strongly encouraged, and there are often ones willing to discuss business.

What countries do your members span?
Ri'sari/J'sarr could answer this better.

What activities in ESO do your members enjoy doing together the most?
The company is strongly into what you would call Role Playing, but we enjoy incorporating other things Tamerial has to offer into such as the many cave systems and the extensive crafting. It's not uncommon for us to need to journey into caves and crypts to retrieve missing shipments, or travel to Cyrodiil for a little... stress release.

What makes your guild unique?
One thing that sets the Blue Skooma Company apart from the other companies is we like to keep careful notes of what happens and share them with everyone in the company. Everyone has access to what is happening with the "Inner Circle" of the role playing and we constantly invite those who wish to be apart of it into it. *We have a person specifically in-charge of keeping track of what happens between separate sessions and how they all relate and interact with each other, create developing story arcs, multiple possible endings, and lasting results.*

Is your guild part of a larger alliance of guilds? Why did you join them?
As of yet, the Blue Skooma Company is independent, yet we are seeking ones to be able to distribute our product to.

Does your guild ever host special events? If so, tell us about them!
This one has been anxiously awaiting you to ask us of our events. Indeed, Blue Skooma Company hosts many of events over the course of a week. Sunday nights, we host a... semi-legal FIght Pit where fighters fight for glory while the audience place bets for coin. Admittedly however, the fights are staged, and the winners of each fight are actually decided by dice rolls behind the scenes, so fights are fair. Mondays mark the end of our weekly Screenshot Contest, each week pertaining to a different theme. Wednesdays nights are dedicated to a trial in the form of a Team Scavenger Hunt, which we use to encourage newer members to work together to win fabulous prizes, as well as to get to know each other. Thursday nights are trivia nights, where our Quiz Master challenges the guild to test their knowledge of Tamerial's geography, lore, and other topics. Our by far most popular event however is our weekly live auction, where Guild Members volunteer to put items of great value up to be sold. These auctions are open to everyone in the area, and not limited to those in the guild. Finally, we often have gatherings or role play events at the end of an event.

What is your favorite or most memorable moment as a guild so far in ESO?
Well, admittedly my first thought was Ri'sari saying "Let's not do the Sex". I don't think that will roll.

Does your guild secretly (or not so secretly) follow a specific Daedric Prince? If so, which one?
*Slams his fists on the table* We need no Daedric Prince to follow. We are all loyal to our boss, Ri'sari.

After a long day of adventuring, where does your guild enjoy gathering to wind down?
At the end of a day, we company often comes together and gathers was the campfire outside Ry'fryll and unwind for the night, sharing stories, and messing with each other.

This one has already reached out to their community director personally. No word yet, but I am happy to post on the forums (as we all should, once the time comes).

Also, if you like to write, but are more technical than story based (or even both)... hint hint
http://www.blueskooma.co

This WILL be us. no way they don't pick a guild with 450+ members, 2 guild sites, active forums and one that hosts multiple events a week.

I would have to agree with Qa'Han that that has to be the most memorable event in the guild so far. If not that then we could mention the slaughterfish feast of yesterday.

Thank you for making this thread and helping with answering some of the questions. Two weeks ago, I tried to submit us for this but because I was in beta and did not make a forum account, I can't post to the official forums due to a well known bug. I have talked to Ebongale and J'sarr about making the post so this thread will help.

I did not put a high priority on it before because I didn't feel we were ready for the influx it would bring. But things will be organized enough by the end of next week so I feel we're good to post it.

I'd go with the slaughterfish feast, If only due to Ri'sari's famous line being a "you had to been there" kind of moment.

I'm going to have to change my entry from "Lets not do the Sex" to teaching new roles players how to roleplay in general: one example.

Ri'sari asked this one to post to the forums today. He looked at the responses above, added some answers, and believes he has done the company proud.

Aww, shucks. Thanks chief :D

This one would also like to congratulate you on your good work Ebongale! :)

Congrats. Way to go.

You didn't actually Answer the first question "Whats your guild's Name" and instead gave your name. Our guild is official now "Ebongale"

I've.fixed it. It reads a bit better now.
