A Short Message from The Broducer

Good day, everyone.

It has come to my attention that, upon further review of the latest podcast (that would be “The Sprocket Formula: Episode 4″), there is no grim death on the part of Dagnis at the end of the video, nor from any other members of the podcast.  I know that this is unsettling for some of you, breaking the four-podcast streak that we had going. As such- I, The Broducer, deemed it important enough to step from silence and speak of the matter at hand.

Dagnis has stated, recently, that he is achieving a greater mastery of the elements of Guild Wars II.  As such, there will be, and have been, fewer deaths on his part in the coming play hours and podcasts.  This poses a threat to the nature of the closing moments of “The Sprocket Formula Podcast”.

As I sit here, drinking the essence of life from the chalice of good and evil, pouring my thoughts and tribulations into this post, and seething the truths of the future of this podcast from my lips, I implore you- the current, and aspiring, members of the Guild Wars II community- to suggest to me a fitting end for the podcasts from here on out, as symbols of Dagnis’s mortality are no longer guaranteed.

Please send all suggestions to thesprocketformula@gmail.com

Beta Weekend Event

Another Beta Weekend starts today, and you know what that means! You can find all of us on the Ehmry bay server. Keep reading for more information on what we plan on doing this weekend, as well as how you can join in on a Sprocket Formula “Lets Play” event.

Dagnis and Stringdude both go by their respective names in game.  Duxk goes by “Duxk Waterfowl”.

Our goals for the weekend:

Dagnis: I want to get to level 30 and take on the Ascalon catacombs. I also want to explore every zone I haven’t yet been to, and check out the new zone: Gendarran Fields. This area is catered to level 25-35 players, and is just north of LA.  Also, as a crafter, the Mystic Forge piques my interest, and I will be sure to check it out.

Stringdude: I will somehow finish getting all my elementalist’s abilities, get to level 30, and finish my test run on the Ranger and Thief professions- lots and lots to keep me busy this weekend. I’ll probably end up putting in, at least, a good thirty hours. Hopefully, given that we have time, we will be able to play some WvW to test out a few strategies that I have.

Duxk: I will be getting to level thirty as fast as possible. While doing this, I will be partaking in Ascalon Catacombs with the other guys. Hopefully, I can focus on the Automated PvP system to see how well it works!

We will also be hosting an event around 6 pm on Sunday night (EST), and we will all be trying to stay logged-in ’til server shutdown. Feel free to contact us in-game for details if you wish to join us.
