Gaiscioch Community Notes for December 2023

Happy holidays everyone! We're closing in at the end of the year and have some things to celebrate. This year has certainly come with some bumps and bruises but together we managed to pull through. Looking forward, I see a bright future awaiting us in 2024 with lots of fun adventures waiting to be shared.

Gaiscioch Community Conference 2023

Join us for the 2023 edition of our Gaiscioch Community Conference where we discuss the games we've played, the achievements we've shared, and the road forward for our humble community. Join us on December 17th at 2 PM PT live on Twitch.

2023 G4EL Wrapup

This year's G4EL event went as well as could be expected with the economic downturn, layoffs, and overall decline in population. Even still we managed to raise $1,778 for the Children’s Miracle Network. I feel we did a fantastic job with the cards we were dealt and look forward to giving it another go next year.

In Loving a Memory of Mewzical

This past month we lost one of our Guild Wars 2 event regulars. Mewzical has been a regular personality in our weekly event lineup since 2018 and we have all grown to know and love her. She was an artist, a musician, and a natural-born explorer who couldn't follow the beaten path if she tried. She was eternally called to the wilds and often times one of us would be tasked with finding her and bringing her back to the herd. She simply couldn't help the call of the unexplored land.

Inside the Family

Gaiscioch Family Patreons:

Want to give a special shout-out to those members who are helping enable our community to do great things. Their financial support has allowed us to expand the tools at our disposal and maintain the community without burning a hole in my personal savings. While a still do pay a bit out of pocket their contributions have prevented me from having to work side gigs to keep us afloat and for that, I am eternally grateful. It's at a manageable level I am comfortable with. Without these Patreons, you'd be seeing a lot less of me. Thank you for keeping me in-game and focused on growing our community.

Support The Community

Gaiscioch Family Promotions:

I wanted to take a moment to say congratulations to a few members this month for accepting their next credo and stepping into a new role in our family.

Guardians (Seaimpín)

The Gaiscioch Family Guardians are an advanced part of the Veteran Members group and serve as the front line of our family. They help newer members learn about the family, our website, and our belief system. They occasionally will need to help get conversations back on track, or report misdoing's to the family elders. They act as advisors, guidance providers, and overall protectors of the family name. By this time a member should be involved in the family for more than 6 months and has been an active attendee in family events. For those who prefer fellowship over leadership this is the last stop on the family tree. Members must prove their leadership ability to progress to the Leadership ranks through the accumulation of both Valor Points (Earned through leading events.) as well as earning Tokens of Valor from lower ranked members of the family.

Veteran Members (Curadh)

Veteran Members have proven their devotion to the family by participating in events and contributing to the family's success. They have been active more than 90 days and have continued to be contributing members to the family.

  » Chrystal

Official Members (Lorgaire)

Official Members have earned the rank of Lorgaire and have accepted the Mark of the Kindred credo. They have officially decided to become members of the family and start their journey to ascend the roles of the Gaiscioch Family.

Foghladha Back in the Saddle in Late December

As many of you know I've been battling New World for a while. From lengthy loading screens to the infamous white screen that required me to blow away my preferences I've been in a constant state of frustration when it came to New World. In November I passed the torch to Morgan while I tried to figure out this issue.

Popular Adventure:
Conqueror's Blade

About Season 17… Yeah that Happened.

Well, it was all going well until… This season started off gloriously. We fought in several battles and pulled off securing our corner. Got our fiefs to rank 7 before the end-game festivities began. Everything was primed are ready.
