Hi there, Elite DIS!

We are having another Guild event on Friday, June 27, and are counting on all of you joining us in a little friendly competition :teeth:

Here's the information I posted on our site, as well as our DIS thread....


I recently attended Mickey's Pirate & Princess Party and absolutely LOVED it!

Here's my own version of the party, POTCO style

This event will be a competition against the other DIS guild. Rocking our Roos will be on the Princess team (naturally) and the Elite DIS will be on the Pirate team.

The night will consist of a scavenger/treasure hunt in a race against the other team. Team members must stay together at all times and complete tasks in order and in the fastest time.

We will be getting our "bracelets" (to enter the party), participating in a parade, and watching fireworks as part of the event also.

On the day of the event, I will post more information on our DIS thread, including the list of scavenger hunt tasks for both guilds to access during the party.

Sounds Fun!

Ok, I just have a quick question. How do you board another ship? Yes I know it's only the ships with the flags over them, but I took one on once (tongue twister, haha) and it wouldn't let me board it.

If there was another ship trying to sink it then the ship that inflicts the most damage gets the boarding rights. Also, if you were hitting the ship with "Firebrand" then it continues to takes damage from the fire. So after the ship was disabled the fire may have sunk the ship before you could board it.

To complete this answer:
If you have done the most damage to a flagship and it does not sink, the game will give you a message to grapple the flagship. The cannons have a grappling hook shot that you shoot at flashing green circles on the flagship. Once the grappling hooks are landed and the flagship is pulled close to yours the game will give the captain of your ship a message box that has a "Board" button to click on. Once that button is clicked everybody on your ship should swing over to the flagship and you have to kill all on board to sink her and get the loot. If all of you get killed, both ships sink, you will not get any loot, you will get the experience points for disabling the ship, you will get a jail visit, and the ship owner will have to pay to rebuild the ship.

I have no clue who most people are in there too. That is the good part of the other guild. They are pretty close and talk a lot ;)

Hey guys! Sorry the guild has been kinda quiet. I'm usually quite a talker when I'm on. Not long after I joined the guild, quite possibly days even I got a new full time job. I had been "unemployed" up until that point so I was playing a lot. So anyway I'm going to bed early and gone all day now. I'll try to be back on a bit more now on the weekends especially now that there's all the weapons quests to do. I was done with everything and that was also a contributing factor. So hopefully everyone sticks around. If that event Pink wants to do isn't too early Pacific time I'd be happy to participate. Hope to see everyone soon!

A Caribbean Celebration
A recent shipment of goods from Europe has brought rumor of an interesting new invention -- fireworks! Legend has it that in addition to gunpowder, the pirates of the Far East invented these devices, which fill the skies with bright cascades of spark and light.

Celebrate with us July 3rd (starting around 6PM PT) until July 6th - in honor of the arrival of this new invention to the Caribbean. Fireworks start once stars light up the night sky. To watch them, find a spot on or near the shores of Port Royal, Tortuga, or Padres Del Fuego and enjoy the show

Without the + sign you can chat freely (with the exception of bad words/words deemed worthy of giving out personal info - if you type anything against the rules it either won't come out or it will come out and you'll probably get banned lol) and with the + sign there's a limited dictionary, and words you type that aren't in the dictionary blink red and if you hit enter anyway it shows up as "arrr."

I think she's saying that it doesn't have to be "Elite Dis" on the other side as long as they are DISboard members. So if you can get some people from your guild together that would be awesome but if any DIS member is a part of another guild and wants to play on your side that's fine too. We'd just like to know who to expect so we can coordinate better.

I guess it's everyone vs. the Roos. :scared1:

Anyone who wants to join us for the event tomorrow night just speak up. :thumbsup2

So as it stands now, it looks like there are 6 Roo Rockers participating:

Pink
Petez
Jade
Cruise
Matty
Jewel

And 4 DIS'ers participating:

Cat
Goofy
Tinkspirate
Super

Anymore? I do have to say that numbers won't make much of a difference in this type of an event, so don't sweat it. You actually will be able to move faster with 4 than with 6 since you have to stay together at all times.

I'll be posting details in a bit on my thread... Stay tuned!

Make sure you reference my post before the party begins! Either keep DIS open in another window or print it out to have by your computer.

See you all at 9 pm EST on the Tortuga dock (I'll post ocean server closer to the time)

I'm guessing it will take perhaps 60-90 minutes to complete all tasks. However, that's just an estimate - I really have no clue :teeth:

If you can't make it at the starting time, or are going to have trouble staying on for the entire event, it's probably best if you pass on this one, Taz.

There will be plenty of other events scheduled in the future that perhaps might fit your schedule better.

Over the past few weeks, our guild has become more and more inactive. This is because I have moved onto other games, as have most of our Dis Community. As VMK closed, VMK Dis'sers have moved there own ways, me included. Some members stayed with Pirates, as that proved to be there cup o' tea. I personally have moved onto a very fun game, Neopets, and created a website for this (I learned to create custom layouts shortly have The Elite Dis' website was done ;)). I don't want to be holding our guild back from reaching it's potential, so today I am passing on The Elite Dis, to LittleMermaidsMom, aka Esmeralda. I have decided this after talking with KrazyPete, Pink, as well as LittleMermaidsMom. Mermaid will be creating a new guild and I will post the code to register everywhere I can (here, our forums, and website). I still don't know what I will be doing with the forums, and website. I will talk with Mermaid about the forums and website, if they do stay, they won't be updated.

I am sorry I was not able to stay with Pirates. I truly hope you have found your new VMK with Pirates, I haven't, so I have moved on. I wish you all the best, and the best for The Elite Dis'ers.

I just got a few more details. Our new guild's name will be The Elite Dis 2. The only thing that will change will be the name under your account name, we are still The Elite Dis. Our website, and our forums will remain, but they will not be updated. I will elect a person to moderator the forums. All officers, if they choose to make the switch over, will remain officers. The invite code is ADHT8999. Please move over to the new guild, asap. Sometime next month the old guild will be deleted, and I will degrade my account to basic. Thank you for wonderful months! I shall never be more than a PM away.

Dude

PS: Thanks for being so supportive with this change! :hug:

Wow, I didn't realize that you lose those things when your time was up... I wonder, do you get them back if you were to use another code or pay for a month? Or would you have to start those quests over again (and buy another frigate)?

If you really love the game, I would pay the $4.95 for another month right now. This hopefully will get you through until VMK comes through with their promise, and you can get another month to tack on. pirate:

Do you mean the hosting service? If so there are many free hosting services on the website, like freewebs. What I used it more diffucult to use than freewebs, because you must know HTML/CSS, even if you use a premade layout.

The website was nice but if it can't be updated it isn't going to be very useful. I know that for our guild we use our Dis thread for discussions as much as we do our web site. If you guys want a web site like ours it wouldn't take much for me to set it up. Just let me know. :thumbsup2

You know you guys could keep the name The Elite Dis without having to put the 2 next to it if the GM boots everyone out first then leaves himself. Then the guild will no longer exist so you can create a new one with the same name. :)

I know I sort of hinted around that I would help with this earlier... and Pink has explained some of how our website works in the other thread... let me clarify this just a little bit more for you.

Hosting: I pay for hosting already. My hosting service will let me host many more sites on my account than I ever actually will. I can provide you with ad-free website hosting for free.

Web Address: They are $7-10 a year. I'm fine with getting a domain name for your guild's website. If you guys want to PayPal me some cash for it that's fine. If not, it's really no big deal. Either way, you can have a .com address not .ws.ru or whatever.

Web Site: It takes me about about 20 minutes to configure a new site with the Drupal (drupal.org) content managment system installed on it. You can look at RockingOurRoo.com to see it in action. You can give members permission to make changes to the site if you want to. No HTML is required unless you want to build a custom template.

If for some reason you just want to have your guild site someplace else that's fine. I would recommend you google "guild sites." There are a lot of hosting services that already offer sites prebuilt for MMO guilds. One that looked pretty good to me when I was researching was GuildLaunch.com. It has everything your guild needs and there is an ad-based option if you don't want to pay for the service.

Hosting: I pay for hosting already. My hosting service will let me host many more sites on my account than I ever actually will. I can provide you with ad-free website hosting for free.

Web Address: They are $7-10 a year. I'm fine with getting a domain name for your guild's website. If you guys want to PayPal me some cash for it that's fine. If not, it's really no big deal. Either way, you can have a .com address not .ws.ru or whatever.

Web Site: It takes me about about 20 minutes to configure a new site with the Drupal (drupal.org) content managment system installed on it. You can look at RockingOurRoo.com to see it in action. You can give members permission to make changes to the site if you want to. No HTML is required unless you want to build a custom template.

If for some reason you just want to have your guild site someplace else that's fine. I would recommend you google "guild sites." There are a lot of hosting services that already offer sites prebuilt for MMO guilds. One that looked pretty good to me when I was researching was GuildLaunch.com. It has everything your guild needs and there is an ad-based option if you don't want to pay for the service.

Oh, you can?

If thats ok, it would be great since it's ad free

We should really run this through Esmerelda first

Just to clarify this point. Your site wouldn't be a part of our site. It would be a completely separate site with it's own url and design template. It would run on the same software so that you could set up all the same features if you wanted to. Or different ones. Look at Drupal.org. It's a very flexible CMS.

Yes. Also, I do know PHP, and recently learned how to create pretty professional layouts. So if Esmeralda decides she wants a website, anybody can contact me and I certainly could give some help in the PHP/Layout department.

I don't want to be speaking for her. So I am going to try and put my input to a minimum but, she may have different plans. I don't know what she is going to do, so I think we should wait to see what she says. We shouldn't be counting our chickens before they hatch, and we still need to make the transition. Then after we make the full switch, then you guys can talk as a group, about what you think should happen. Not all active members of the guild post on this topic. So once the group moves over, we can account for who made it, and you guys can talk about plans.

I discussed the website and forum issue with Goofy and he is willing to take charge of that, so I'm fine with whatever he decides to do.. my first job as guildmaster is to delegate that duty :rotfl2:

Taz, if you want to make your own website and link it to the guild website, I think that would be a good idea.. there are a lot of graphics and things on the pirates website you can download that will help in making your page.

Anyone that wants to join the guild, feel free.. the more the merrier.. and I think a fireworks meet sounds good.

Sorry for not being around the past day.. our dog is having surgery and I'm picking her up in a few hours.. not sure how she'll be feeling, but I will try to be around tonight.

I think it takes Pete about 20 minutes to get the basic layout up. Not labor intensive at all. Our website is a "guild build" - we ALL have administratative rights and contribute to the whole thing, so it's not just one person doing it. We all are in charge of our own member pages, and we all can put up anything we want on the front page, or any page for that matter....

We just need him when we have a problem or mess something up on the site, then it's "Oh Peeeeeeeeeeeete!!" :rotfl2:

Thank you! Well.... my 18 yo thinks everything is stupid (and so I guess I fall into that category, LOL), my 16 yo at first thought my costume looked like a bathrobe, but once we got there and I put the full thing on, he said I looked " really good" - I'll take any compliment I can get at that age :), my 11 yo still thinks I'm the best, in Jedi costume or out... :woohoo:

I get the feeling that your guild is already having a little power struggle going on. Not good. Petez will be back tomorrow - I'm sure he'll be happy to get you started. I know you're all rearing to go, but hang on one more day.

You can even link that forum that Goofy set up to the main site (by the way, it looks great, Goofy). But it sounds like both of you want a hand in the overall design and upkeep of the main site so there's no reason why both of you can't work together. :goodvibes
