o7 Groggers!

I am the Table, on 28 November 2014 - 10:24 AM, said:

Yesterday's Grogsgiving involved so much turkey (of cooked and the wild kind) that it completely destroyed me this morning, but I feel better as a table because of this experience. Hope for any of you that played you had a good special Dakka Danksgiving Dursday! I was left completely unable to pilot a mech, or myself for that matter! I got dakka'd by so much durkey!

...How'd it feel to be the table, Table? Was the weight of that wondrous load of delectable delicacies too much for you to support? Did you collapse beneath it all? If so, then that must've been some kinda feast!

I've been sick all week and wasn't even feeling well enough for seconds from my own family's celebration. Getting better though and looking forward to getting back into the action!

Hey guys, we may want to tag along with you once community warfare starts. We will be doing 1 week occasional clan contracts, and I think Ghost Bear wont go against our Steiner/Davion alliance loyalty points! We'll have to wait and see!

[Heldigris]

Hey my name is Heldigris been 2-man pugging with mli for a week or two and we have decided to find a corp, this corp suits atleast me perfect because i usually drink a Pint or some rum when i play. Hope to shoot some mechs down with you guys.

im a 22 year old student who usually plays light mechs and im pretty new to the scene

[mli]

Hello. My name is Mli and I've been playing MWO since open beta, and I'm still kind of a noob Been playing alot with Heldigris lately and as a student (age 29), I'm an avid drinker. My drink is of choice is whiskey, but I'm also a fan of drinking jagermesiter in my Jagermech. I prefer piloting heavy and medium mechs, and I hope to join up with you guys soon.

[Majestic Kodiak]

Damn, I take a small vacation, and you guys start filling stars like it's no mans business. Argus and welcome to all. I'll be piloting again on Thursday. Till then, go drink ye miserable dregs!

The Great Collapse of 2014 at least didn't happen until all mass quantities were consumed! But yes, as you say, the sheer weight proved too costly for my leg actuators. After getting pelted with a head shot in the form of not being able to read subtitles, I subsequently failed my consciousness roll and was knocked out for a few turns... Upon waking up I then failed my piloting skill rolls of trying to stand and flailed around a few hexes causing more damage to my internals!
I hope you are feeling better by now friend!

Hell yeah! Because what goes together better than grog and pirates?? Peanut butter and jelly? Maybe...but not by enough...

Sounds like an epic Thanksgiving Feast!

I am doing fantastic now, which is great since I have two finals and a presentation over the course of the next three days. I'm avoiding MWO until the weekend so that I can get through these last major assignments.

[Heldigris]

timezones should be no issue, play with plenty of americans every day

[Endbringer]

Welcome to the unit, new pilots!

Prepare for the GROGGENING!

I'm glad you are doing better! Being sick during holidays suuuuucks. And I hear you on the homework. Though fortunately I don't have a presentation just 2 quizzes, 2 exams and 2 final exams in the final 6 classes total! Dah!!

Awesome! I noticed the Norway location, I believe you will be our first Euro-groggers!

Let the GROGGENING COMMENCE! Once we finish our drinks, anyway...and then pour a new one, and then probably finish that, and then we'll need another drink, but probably after that!

[t Khrist]

So many awesome new members. The Grog Corps continues to grow mighty. I look forward to meeting you all properly.... on the battlefield that is! Let us fight side by side in a sloppy fashion, melting and/or blowing up the first thing that moves!

Whoo! Good luck with it all! I'm behind on time and under the gun, but once I get through Friday I should be good to go for a couple days.

Ok so I was all geeked that I was able to have the in-game audio coming through the speakers, but TS through the headset. It just worked like that without me having any intention for it to, anyway because of that only my voice is on the stream recording.. it's quite awkward. So yes there's footage, but it's *missing* the audio. Overall I think we did pretty sweet. High numbers for everyone across the board.

I don't think I'll be playing much this weekend, I'm working mandatory overtime starting at 6 am all weekend every weekend until further notice.. no. days. off.

NOTE TO GROG MEMBERS:

The signup sheet for the tournament has been posted to the spreadsheet and you can now register!
