Girl Power Hour – Girls Pwning Tombs February 27, 2007

Attention girl gamers – you’re invited!

Building on the success of our first Girl Power Hour event, our amazon army will march forth this Sunday on the Tomb of the Primeval Kings.

If you haven’t mapped ToPK, go to Dragon’s Lair, the outpost is just through a doorway from the mission town. (If you haven’t mapped Dragon’s Lair, that’s a little more complicated – you’ll need to ascend first.) If you’re of the chest-opening inclination, the Tombs are (sort of) in the Underworld, so bring Phantom keys (Yes, occasionally you will see ecto drops in Tombs.)

Bring whatever character you have that can get there. We won’t be trying to force together Barrage/Pet teams. Balanced teams may take a bit longer to complete Tombs, but they’re more fun and not as hard to assemble from a diverse group of participants.

We will meet this Sunday, March 4th, in our regular meeting place, the Temple of the Ages, International District 1, at our regular meeting time, 1:00 PM Eastern Time (10:00 AM Pacific, 6:00 PM GMT).

Female players only, please. (Females playing male characters are welcome.) Of course there’s no way for us to check, but please respect the women who wish to gather for this event to play with other female gamers.

First Girl Power Hour event a success – Galrath pwned. February 27, 2007

We were delighted that so many girl gamers showed up for the event. We set out with three full teams, and made short work of Galrath and his nefarious cohorts.

Here are a few pictures from the team I was on:

Everyone had a great time, and many of us stayed together to do other things after finishing Galrath. We’re looking forward to meeting up again next week – same girl-time, same girl-channel!

GP sponsoring all girl gamer event, “Girl Power Hour!” February 20, 2007

Despite persistent rumors to the contrary, girls do, in fact, exist on the internet, and play games – including Guild Wars. It does still seem to be hard for folks to accept, and sometimes it can be tiresome being the only girl on the team with seven guys, some of whom don’t even believe that actual girls play this game.

To celebrate girl gamers and create a space for us just to have a good time playing together, Girl Power guild is sponsoring a weekly all girl gamer event, “Girl Power Hour!” The first one will be held this Sunday, February 25th.

Much like the weekly all-mesmer or all-beastmaster Zoo Crew events that you may have heard of, Girl Power Hour will meet at a set place & time each weekend. From there, we’ll form up teams and head out to do something fun together – Clear Tomb of Primeval Kings? Sorrows Furnace quests? Domain of Anguish questing? The Deep? Urgoz? Fissure of Woe? Underworld? Get Master’s reward for missions on the upcoming “hard mode?” All of those and more, eventually.

Our first event will be to find Galrath, and put an end to his villainy. We will meet in what will be our meeting place every weekend, the Temple of the Ages, International District 1, at what will be our meeting time every weekend, 1:00 PM Eastern Time (10:00 AM Pacific, 6:00 PM GMT).  Girls only, please. Of course, there’s no way to check the player behind the avatar, but boys discovered hiding behind female characters will be mocked mercilessly.
