    How old are you?
    31
    In-Game Name?
    Booms, Boums, Smoob, Boomn
    Do you have Teamspeak 3 and a mic?
    Yes
    Why did you choose XoO:
    I was looking for a VS NA East PS2 guild on the SOE forums and found you guys to be the best bet. I checked the forums a bit and read your code of conduct and everything seemed to fit. I have seen you guys around in the past and it has been an option I have looked at in past games.

    I don't know for sure if you guys will be a good outfit choice for me but I am looking for an organized, competitive PS2 guild. Once I meet the community I will know for sure if it is a good fit for me. I am fairly laid back but if there are a lot of people who like to troll in voice comms or talk for the sake of hearing their own voice I probably won't stay (if I get in in the first place). Annoying people piss me off.
    Previous Gaming Experience:
    MMOs: SWG, AoC, EQ2, Vanguard, Warhammer, SWTOR, GW2

    FPS: Darkfall, Arma 2, Day Z, BF2, BF3, PS2, Mortal Online

    Others: Mount & Blade Warband: CRPG, HoN, Shogun 2

    I have played a fair amount of online games in my time, SWG being my first. SWG and Darkfall i both played over a year, the others were 3-10 month stints for the most part.

    I used to be really into tab targeting MMOs but ever since I got heavily into Darkfall I have started leaning towards FPS. I just find tab targeting games less challenging. I plan on playing PS2 as my main game for a while.
    What will you contribute to the guild?
    I can take orders or lead if needed. I have put a lot of work into leading and developing my tactic sets across different kinds of games over 11 years of on-line gaming.

    I ran a 30 man competitive pvp guild in swg that was one of the top 3 pvp guilds for 2 years (sunrunner). I have been pvp officer in 3-4 different games in different guilds.

    But when it comes down to it I am kind of tired of leading because I game less now I don't have the time to invest into things like that. Of course if it is needed, I am here.

    I also have experience as an event planning and guild alliance liaison officer.

    At the end of the day my main contribution (at least at the beginning) would be following and executing orders and getting things done properly in a timely fashion.

    I also am a fairly good Galaxy pilot and Engineer.
    Localization:
    North America
    Do you have a referral?
    Nope.
    A little bit about yourself?
    From Toronto, Ontario. Graphic designer, married for 2 years. No little ninjas yet. I am a huge star wars nerd. I have read probably 50 novels. Also am a Ragga Jungle producer/dj, and sometimes I get drunk and make songs about video games.

    As far as my personality, you wouldn't know with my serious business app but I have a good sense of humor (i think anyways). I also like to drink the sauce on the weekends and shoot people (in video games). Hmm, what else? I have no idea, im just a dude that has a gun and wants to kill smurfs and red turds.
    Activity level?
    15-40 depending on time of year and wife agro
    Do you have a high speed internet connection and a good computer?
    Yes
    Have you applied to the Planetside 2 usergroup?
    Yes

    Thanks for your interest in XoO. We can always use good Galaxy pilots and Engineers. Also, have you tried the two new maps for DayZ?

    We're currently playing on the West 01 Beta server until the next character wipe. I'll pm you our Teamspeak information and you can join up with us in game and we'll see if we're a good fit for each other or not.

    Cool, I'll try to find you guys tonight and update this with my PS2 name on that server. And no, I thought there was only 1 dayz map. I'll have to look into that. I actually have been playing it more the past week, but being solo and running out of Berez I don't really run into that many people.

    Yup, Berezino was our hub for a long time. Such a great place, well, except for all the zombies. The two map are Lingor Island and Takistan. They're not official, but rocket said he likes them and is okay with them.

    See you tonight.
