Okay.

First. Thank you guys for awesome weekend. I had a lot of fun with you and now I certainly know where and with whom I'll play on release :D

Second. My nickname is Xaiphiel, but you can call me just Xai or my RL name is Dmitriy (Dima). I saw that it caused some misunderstanding, because Xaiphiel is really hard to pronounce fast :D

Now let's talk about what went a bit off at this BWE.

1. Flairs. We need them here. Mumble's overlay doesn't support GW2 yet, and people were a bit confused with names (in mumble/game/reddit). It's easy if you have the same nickname everywhere (like me), but a lot of people don't. Just a basic flare with your account name (because you can whisper to account name without knowing the character name).

2. Mumble. It was a great idea to have separated rooms for starting areas/PvE/WvW, but at the first day it was just a clusterf**k at the main channel with 40 people trying to talk at the same time. That's why next time we need to gather a day or two before the BWE and organise people. Ask who will start where to get them into diffirent channels. That's why you need "mumble officers" with rights to drag people to diffirent channels.

3. Two guilds. It's cool that we have such a number of people playing and WvW/PvE focused guilds is a great idea, but only if there will be enough people for each guild. You want to devide people into two groups, and it can have some bad consequences. It's a tricky part and need to be discussed.

P.s. A bit more about mumble part. I think that we lost some people. I mean that they were still in guild/played with people from guild, but they didn't get into mumble after friday. It was almost 65-70 people there at first day, and only 40 at the second. This is an indication that something is wrong here :)
