Klion D'Gar 6 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Here's a little proposal. If say we were to arrange for a one night reunion event on the 31st of August (date picked off the top of my head) how many people would show up, and how many people do you think you could bring back? This would just be an opportunity for old players to get together and relive the old days. Perhaps in a Tavern swapping tales over ales and perhaps even a battle royale for a chuckle. I should stress from my own point of view this is not intended as a return to UO, I just thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone would bite. Thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nathaniel Hawk 11 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Wouldn't it be more appropiate to have this sometime there's a "Return to Britannia" campaign? As far as I know it used to be in the beginning of September, so its not that far off. I think it's easier to get people to come online if it doesn't include a fee Overall I also find it very surprising to see you're the one to suggest it. But not in a negative way.

Klion D'Gar 6 Posted June 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 If we can see in advance when the RtB event will be, that would make sense. However if we cannot get a month or two advanced warning of when that will happen, then it's probably not much use as it's going to take time for news of the event to spread around. I'd also hope most of the people we played with back in the day are able to spare a few dollars/pounds/euros for a stroll down memory lane! If not, they can use trials accounts with their chars name perhaps? And your surprise is not surprising. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Anna Goodward 970 Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Totally up for. If you want us to be host, let us know Quote Link to post Share on other sites
callumf 436 Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 I think its a great idea. Assuming I know well in advance what day it is I can be there [hopefully]. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Baruk_S 882 Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 The idea was opped at 31'st of August (that'll be on a saturday) I will be there as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Klion D'Gar 6 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Yes, 31st of August is the proposed date. That isn't set in stone, but unless there is a compelling argument to change it, I'd suggest sticking with it. Be sure to spread the word, far and wind! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vierna 12 Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Is this an invitation for Klion to get his ass kicked? =) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Mighty Raul 43 Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Be fun to see old friends (and foes) again i think, but wether i can be bothered to reinstall and search out my old passwords....well that would depend a lot on who comes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raziel Von Sahyn 7 Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 I have never closed my account so I'd show up! Might dust Henry off though by now i expect he will be using a walking stick like the rest of us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Klion D'Gar 6 Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Bump. Any further interest? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
callumf 436 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Klion - I will link to this from Stratics as well UO Europa | Stratics: A Career Path in Gaming Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Mighty Raul 43 Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 I think by the amount of responses that it would not be worth it! Sad mind, would have been interesting Henry and Raul meeting again after all this time! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Anna Goodward 970 Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 A major thing is, I doubt that many are following the boards anymore Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shunsaki 183 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Since I've been wondering about the state of the game for some time now, and the (old) faces that still exist, I'd be up for it and could even drag some others with me. Just sayin'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Mighty Raul 43 Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Don't mistake my posting here as a indication of my activity in UO, i just follow the forums to keep in touch with old friends. Ive not played UO for years now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thorien 113 Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 raul my old bud, i think it would be a shit idea if it did happen. how depressing would it be for the current tiny group of rpers left to all of a sudden have shit loads of guys who used to play turn up for one night and then foxtrot oscar again?

dragkiris 784 Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 I would logon to talk to a bunch of old timers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thorien 113 Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 I think that's the inverse point of the thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sicarius 6 Posted August 10, 2013 Report Share Posted August 10, 2013 Hmm Paying a months fee for one night.. you can get like.. 10 Mc Flurrys for that... Would love to catch up with some guys and time travel back 8 years.. le sigh - Phil Lynx.. Probably the best corsair in the world.. definitely better than Kros 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Baruk_S 882 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Who says you need to pay the 10 mcflurry's? Just get a 14 day free pass, create your named char and join in... cost = $ 0.00 and a few hours. Secondly, it will not be a depressing night for the remaining RP folk, they will just cherish such an evening. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nathaniel Hawk 11 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 I'll show up, even if I'm at a lan-party at that weekend. (Yes, they still exist.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kiran VTC 687 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Why not just get back into UO if you miss it? Dont have to play hardcore as you once did really, none of the whole having to ooc commit, just relax and play with people you known for over 10 years? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
callumf 436 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Callum and Iljian are still here and bump into each other [very occasionally]. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Klion D'Gar 6 Posted August 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 (edited) The plan is still for this to go ahead on the 31st. I'll post some final details in the next week or so. For those who don't want to reactivate: as others have said, you can use a free account for a stroll down memory lane. I am sure someone can help you get some clothes or whatever if you want to try make your character look a bit authentic. Ideally I'd like to split the event into an IC half where people can roleplay old characters, because I think for many that will be half the fun - returning to an old story so to speak. The second half will be OOC, allowing for a good old chin wag and perhaps a tour of some old haunts and a quiz. Edited August 14, 2013 by Klion D'Gar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Klion D'Gar 6 Posted August 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 As there doesn't seem to have been much interest, I'll knock this on the head. Perhaps it will be worth trying again in the depths of winter when the good weather has passed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Baruk_S 882 Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 I play regularly, and do you guys really need something like a reunion to play UO even if just for a night?As before, just grab a 14 day pass and play along, who cares if you're not the great warrior you were on your payed account?Grab an ale at Swaggers (Vesper) or Maplehurst (Skara Brae) and tell of your stories while you were in a far off land... come on, unless you're scared you might get to like it and fork up the $15 a month again????...dhehehehe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Mighty Raul 43 Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Have to agree with my old pal Thorien, you could not handle the awesomeness of us all back in game at one time again....infact I think the server would break or something. Also Klion! A flippin quiz!? You do realise who some of us are (were?) we don't do flippin quiz nights! *laughs* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
