Staged a coup in my Archage guild, we managed to get away with basically all of the guild assets.

Joined guild, made friends with one of the officers and his small in-group of pvpers. Was a reliable asset and helped us get a couple of merchant ships and a galleon, plus had farms just full of high value trade packs.

Problem was the GM and I didn’t get along very well. She wanted to dictate how we named the ships in a way that I felt was cringe as hell and generally wasn’t open to input or criticism at all. One day I logged in at like 2 or 3 am when no one else in the guild was online and I just left the guild. Next day I logged in and sent messages to the people I’d made friends with and told them the GM kicked me, since it was well known she didn’t like me.

Stoked the flames for an hour or so and convinced most of the in-group to quit after we took all the assets we could. Drew a giant dick with barley plants on the front lawn of the GM’s player house and then they all g-quit.

She raged for months, shouting in global chat that we were a bunch of pirates anytime she saw us, and tried to gank us multiple times, poorly. It was glorious, but I never told any of them what really happened.

We also invented boatnado. The bouancy physics had a fun glitch where you could make a merchant ship spin on its end at an ever increasing rate and the mast would just fire any ships that got too close off into the horizon. Never fully managed to weaponize this discovery, but we had a ton of fun with it.

I think, probably…spending many hours over a few weeks helping people experience and love Journey after I got my White Robe. Twirling around on the sand dunes, exploring strange places, avoiding danger, and finally seeing them pass through that mountain.

For me every time someone stuck it out added to the memories and I hope each of them remembers that chirpy white robed players who made the game just a little more fun.

I have two:

1. I was the main tank of a raiding guild in WoW during the Burning Crusade era. Our guild was the best on the server, but nothing too notable outside of that community. However, when a new quick raid encounter came out (Magtheridon’s Lair), we unintentionally completed the encounter in a novel way. I know that because the next week when we went to clear it, a developer whispered me and asked me if he and a few others could watch us because they noticed through some automated log to prevent cheating that we completed the encounter last week without engaging with a major mechanic of the fight. They let us know they were there, but you couldn’t see anyone and when you looked up the character name it wouldn’t show up if you searched the name. We showed them how we did it, they congratulated us for our ingenuity then told us they were changing the encounter for next week. It was really cool.

2. A few years ago I got into Enter the Gungeon. For those unaware it’s a bullet hell, rogue-like, dungeon crawler with a steep learning curve but great graphics and snappy controls so it is a great time. The first time I beat the game I posted a screenshot on Reddit and the entire community was convinced that it was fake because of my build and the lack of max health I had. At first I was annoyed then I realized that if they didn’t believe me then it meant I did something, literally, incredible.

There’s 3 that come to mind. I’ve beat Dark Souls 3 and all it’s DLC at level 1. I’ve beat Pantheon 5 in the Godhome DLC for Hollow Knight. And I’ve beaten all ascension levels for all characters in Slay the Spire.

Making myself known on the Dreamcastic Channel on YouTube by playing Phantasy Star Online Ver. 2 with none other than Pcwzrd.

He was either ‘Teal’c’ or ‘Afro Thunder’ on there.

This was before I started over when I got another working copy of PSO after the other one broke.

Successfully dodged WoW back in the days, got a degree instead. The only winning move is not to play.

Dead Rising, Zombie Genocide achievement.

6 solo wins in a row on Fortnite. Decided thst i couldn’t stop playing until I lost after the second win.

Got stuck in a glitch Fortnite game with NO STORM. Took over an hour to find everyone and get the win. Had to just fly around in a helicopter until the last dude shot at me.

Going the whole distance in QWOP

I’ve platinumed every version of every FROM Soulsborne game on every platform that has trophies/achievements.

Got every achievement in Terraria and The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe

NB: this was before

Professional Halo player. Signed a contract to play, but never got the chance to play the following season.

100% achievements in Celeste.

Back in the day, I could finish Fatal Frame 2(Wii edition) in under 3 hours. I had played it a lot so my camera was is “festival” mode and full upgraded, so I could pretty much kill a ghost on sight which sped things up.

I beat Dot Hack Infection, Mutation, Outbreak, and Quarantine in order back when they were first releasing on the PS2 in the US. And importing my memory card save every time.

My friend witnessed me defeat the final boss in Quarantine. It was such a long and crazy fight. And the whole thing was just mindblowing.

Sadly I don’t have any pictures or videos of it. And I traded in my PS2 a long time ago.

I have been considering revisiting the game but it’s a big game with ALOT of content. I don’t know when I’ll get around to it.

Good times and Good memories.
