E-Games Domination 3: Short Time, Big Time!

In the dry afternoon of April 4, the small band of players from Takhisis Faction took the road to E-Games Domination III and we arrived with high expectation. And our expectations are met! Lets see why I said so.

In our arrival at the venue, we are surprised because the players who attend the event was more massive than last year. The line of people that leads to the entrance was long so they need to separate it to three lines and occupy a lot of space to accommodate more incoming people. Then after an hour we finally made it inside and the lights inside the hall made our tired body loosen up a bit. Then we approached the Granado Espada booth, familiar faces with new players embraced my sight and the feeling was good.

After a while I finally met the champion who secure his video for Pattaya and its non other than a fellow Filipino pioneer - exebolt! We manage to talk for some time, too bad I came late for the event so my time is too short for a talk.

Then one of the cool things to do in this event is taking pictures around with the Cosplayers who gives spice to the ambiance of the event. We are crazy enough to loiter around and take photos and that made our stay worthwhile.

After chasing around people and visiting various gaming booth, our stay was payed off when our faction was awarded through faction banner for second place. The first winner are from the faction of Pinoy All Stars of Rembrandt server. Thanks for the Cosplayer who cosplayed Chuckie the Granado Espada stage brightened up when he went up there and start entertaining us.


The Granado Espada activity was over and our small band decided to go outside and eat then off we go to our humble abode. But it was amazing to meet another old friend and mother to us during the first year of Granado Espada for the Philippine community.

It was our former Community Manager Veya! Currently she is working with another MMORPG handled by E-Games. I really miss those day that she manage to visit various area within the metro just to attend faction eye ball for Granado Espada. And I know she still do it in a more casual way by treating them as friends. To our former CM Veya thanks a lot!


I would like to take opportunity to thank the people behind this wonderful event. From the community managers, game masters, sponsors, cosplayers, and players who gave their time to make the event successful through participation. I hope next year more activities will be provided to numerous attendees and more players will be encouraged to join this great annual event of E-Games. To all the pioneers of the new found world, I congratulate you for showing your support to the Philippine community. Til again I'll keep you posted pioneers!

Seeing things around GE

It was a rough week and for me a good sight on sprites walking around Granado Espada will definitely change your mood. For example, during our camp in Porto Bello Catherina Saloon, one of my faction mates have a taste of getting his new pet. Yeah its Rudolph the red nose rain deer. This pet heals 1,500 HP on your family during active battle and even at the city.

And for a personal consolation, I got Soho of the Wind. For pioneers out there, Soho of the Wind can be acquired through Adelina's Booty Search every time you top-up your account. And lastly congratulations to the winners of the Scene and Heard "Blood Donation Drive" which all results can be found here.

Til again, I'll keep you posted pioneers.

Of the Hearts

February, a month were people who have a relationship consider this month a very special day for them. Well it goes with dating primarily and its obvious due to tradition. But then again it does not mean playing Granado Espada alone kills your relationship because they say its only another digital dimension. Sorry guys but in Granado Espada there are lovers inside the new found world. So this is my entry for FAA in a form of poster.

Valentines

Well in the finale week of FAA I will try to produce a 30 second ad for Linksys category. So better watch how will I execute on this one. Til again I keep you posted pioneers!

Own Touch

Its been a week and am kinda busy with some real life appointments though I manage some things in particular. Yesterday was the first time I've created a 30sec ad for Granado Espada and it was really odd for me too bad am only used in writing and creating thoughts. Well shamelessly I did it, not expecting for any win at least it was an accomplishment for me. This are the entries under forum name; Duchesneau and Grabaiso for the "Scene and Heard Open Category" Fantazzztic Ad Awards.

(Entry LeNoir Fashion under Grabaiso forum account)


Well because am not of the technicals, I adjusted my concept that fits within my creating movie skill. The thing was I still stick the execution on my concept map and as much as possible the relativity on my execution which does not sacrifice my ideas. Well for now am getting hang of it improving the execution part of creating 30sec Ad. I'll try to post my poster Ad if there is any possibility that IAH will further continue of including poster Ad for the competition. Til again I'll keep you posted pioneers!

Attention at Maximum!

I can still remember last year's competition the Fantazzztic Film Awards and now we here comes another one. This year IAH organized another competition and is called the Fantazzztic Ad Awards. Before anything else lets define advertising shall we?

Based on wikipedia they define "Advertising is a form of communication that typically attempts to persuade potential customers to purchase and to consume more of a particular brand of product or service"

Well unlike last year Fantazzztic Film Awards is more of artistry in short film making and this season the competition focuses on Advertisment which is more challenging because now a days media ads is one of the power form of advertisment. Media advertisment requires powerful and precise information about a product and it all depends to execution.

Most of my friends in Granado Espada is now asking if Team LeBlanc will go for it. For now its a hanging question for our team. I know there are more advesary in this competition but just in case, we are up for the challenge and we will compete for artistry in higher level. Til again, I'll keep you posted pioneers!
