The Official Ex-RuST SCL "Journey to Hell" Group Thread

Since besides this JTH i have more or less quit d2, im basically putting all my items up for grabs... Maybe in the future though if we decide to try out some ungodly expensive builds... keep me in mind heh, i still want to attempt my auradin at a later date...
 
hmmm

Just a question,

It seems, at least to me, that we are at a crossroads. I have been on, with the exception of last night (went to catch a screening of Constantine), battlenet at the agreed upon time within the last few weeks. I am wondering if we are just going to stop where we are since we have lost one.

Let me know. I am still up for it, in the meantime, however, I am doing other builds and helping a few friends of mine out on bnet.

Laters..
 
Im still up (sorry i want on last 2 nights) and ill be back on tonite... i really wanna get to act 4-5 to get and try out this oath ethereal small crescent :-) itll be the best 1 hand weapon ive ever had lol
 
Still no CDD :( .

Am I right in saying there hasn't been much happening since Wathombe went on that business trip (then got sick...should tell you something...) and my CDD died? It's a shame because we should be well and truly finished by now.

I would expect the East JTH to be more successful because it seems there are more people so less chance of there being under 5 on any given day - that's where we ground to a halt I think. We only had 8 (9?) and only about 5-6 were on nearly every day (not necessarily the same day though). If you can get two groups going on East then you are certain of there being a game each night.
 
Two groups, two different times and intentions

Since I haven't gotten details from people, and Cherokee isn't taking back the throne he left when he started this, it appears I may be forced to institute a specific time and throw classes at people, letting them choose the build. Right now it looks like there'll be eight people max for the leisure (lucky if we'll see these people) and some of those who said they were interested have waited so long for this to start they probably aren't interested anymore.

I'll check the records and come up with something, but USWest needs to be finished.

Power #1: 7-11PM EST
Power #2: 11PM-3AM EST
Leisure #1: 9-11PM EST
Leisure #2: 1-3AM EST

Assuming any of these can be moved an hour or so, and certain people might play in two groups I figured this would be a decent starting point. Opinions?

If I don't have a job I can play eight straight hours with a break now and then to get the blood circulating; imagine how quickly I could reach hell Baal. Not that I don't have a life or anything...
 
I'm still up for it, but I'm running out of builds I want to play, especially for the power group. I'm good on weekdays until 2AM EST, and good all night on Fridays and Saturdays. Not too sure about tonight for West. If there are people, I'll see what I can do, but if there aren't going to be people, it would be good to know early so I can get some sleep stored for when there are.

Edit: That stuff about people NOT coming holds true for any night. I'm starting to feel a little drained going on 4-5 hours of sleep a night for no real reason. If you guys are on, I'm game, but if you aren't going to come, I'd rather be sleeping or doing other nerdy things.
 
Is this a rushing team, or 1 tat goes all the way thru the game. If it is the latter, then i am intested.
However i play asia 1. I wanted to start a new V/T pala, but juz lack the urge to start.
Also looking for good players on asia 1 here
 
Sorry I missed last night, but I got home and just passed out within an hour. Didn't get up 'til after 6 AM. Hope I didn't miss much. 'Course with the way things have been going, I don't think I missed anything at all. And I'm not sure if I said this yet: if I'm not on West at starting time and you need me, I probably lost track of the time, so check on East.
 
It is now 1:15AM EST...

Tonight I find no one online yet again. With as close as we are to finishing you'd figure Friday and saturday nights would be possible for everyone, even Morton, but there has been only one night of play, getting from post-Radament to post-Summoner, since Wathombe returned. I would like a calling of hands to verify that there are still five people who - even on weekends - will still show up to finish this thing. If five people do not respond by Sunday 3AM EST (the end of tomorrow night's scheduled JoTH then I'll consider this at an end and cull my USWest account.

I haven't gone into how Battle.net/Blizzard just royally ****** me with concern to my off-ladder accounts, but suffice it to say I no longer have much use for this piece-of-**** game and am only playing at this point because I have little else to do. If there isn't firm support for the USEast JoTH I'll consider my tenure in this game near an end.
 
Im still up... been there just about every night... seems its just you me and tlaloc left :-/... I think we take a vote, if no one else replys i say us 3 move foreward and see what we can accomplish... i still want to get my first eth oath axe :-/
 
Almost always on on weekends. Weekdays are a bit more iffy. Once again, I usually lose all concept of time, and normally need a reminder, on weekends. Find me on East.
 
well... i have to say another no show... these are getting very annoying... 12-13 no runs in the past 14 days.... NOT acceptable, if this happens 1 or 2 more times i think im following the lead and dropping out... other than that, i think we need to change the rules, to like 3 ppl for run... because me, ax2grind, and tlaloc have been on the past like 5 or 6 nights at least and just us 3 so nothing has happened.... ao4 got on tonite, other than that i havent seen many signs of life :-(
 
Morning, folks. Sorry to be scarce the past week. I meant to write last Tuesday/Wednesday, but the forums were not loading consistently during the day, so I couldn’t post from the office.

It has definitely gotten hard to get five together. Sokar’s machine is down, I have not seen raskol online at all since before my trip, and dnmorton has had to quit (per the post 10 or 12 up from here). That leaves five if everyone gets on.

I’ve had some machine trouble myself, in that our wireless router seems to have gotten a bit fried during that slow blackout we had ten days ago, and now the connect speed on my laptop sucks (which is why I got horrible lag that night). My wife has been using the desktop late some evenings, so that leaves me no machine to play. The only night I’ve been on since that Friday, I was on from about 9:45 to 10:30 with tlaloc, Be-Were, and Ghost, but we couldn’t find Ax.

I’m game to finish if everyone else wants to, but you are all right in that it is going to be difficult to get everybody on. Unfortunately, I can’t really plan ahead. Most nights my wife falls asleep or is doing something else, but if we’re doing something at 10:00, I can’t log on.

I’m also game to knock it off if everyone else wants to. The main reason I proposed this group was just for fun, as I doubt I will be available enough to be of any use to any ladder season three power leveling group. If the journey has become a pain in the a$$ to everyone, then there’s no point.

At any rate, if we are going to continue, perhaps this is what we can go for scheduling: Those that can be a little more certain of their schedule on any given night (I’ll make guesses here: ax, Ghost, Be-Were, and maybe tlaloc) can coordinate here on a night to play. Those of us who are a little more uncertain (myself and maybe tlaloc) can keep in touch here on the thread so they know which night we are supposed to play. Then whoever shows up that night plays and quests, whether there are three, four, or five present. Sound like a plan?
 
Basically the 3 or 4 of us on every night are at the point that we kinda just want to finish it... Im on more or less every night, and kinda want the run over, so i think im just going to start plowing ahead when we have 3 or more ppl on, when we played nightly or even every other night it was a fun jth, but recently getting on from ~1230 to about 200 and not really doing anything waiting for people has been very aggrivating... If we had a larger group (like east is planning) it would work better, but i think im just egtting this west run done thatn gonna try to join up on east.

I don't think the East group is going to be all that large. I still see Remlin on frequently. Ax seems to be dropping off, but I feel confident he will return for the group. Other than those two, we have myself, anyone willing to come from another realm, and anyone the three of us can come up with, as far as I know.
 
Didn't know where else to put this: I've taken the liberty of cataloguing and offering for trade all of the unique and set items on RuSTMules. If anyone needs anything from them, please grab it and let me know. I think Ax and myself are the only remaining users of the account, though. He doesn't seem to be doing much more than depositing the requested Vampirebone Gloves. Anyway, let me know.

And I know I probably left someone off that other post. I assure you it was not intentional.
 
uhh

I had mentioned to be-were that I started school last night which means that I will not be available as much anymore, I will continue to try to get on when I can. I had been discussing the whole jth business, re: our stagnation, and figured that there is just too much going on. Wathombe up to the neck in work, sokar without a ccd, a few dropping out. I hope that subsequent jths are more successful.

Anywho, I'll be around...

:thumbsup:

Is this a request for discontinuance?

Ah, no, an FYI indicating limited availability.

However, in light of recent events, a discontinuance may be in order in order to start up East or a new West group due to the stagnation of this JTH.
