FYI, It wasn't me.

[Cedrica-the-Bard]

I was in the NE corner trying to get some spell points back when the yelling ensued to get to the SW corner and beat on the baddies being drawn there. I still wanted to get a few more SP for hastes and such but decided I'd better go help. As I was moving in that direction, I saw the red names rounding the corner and heading your way. If anyone had been paying attention (and granted nobody was at that point), you would have seen that I was BEHIND them FOLLOWING them into the SW corner where you guys all were.

When the question was asked as to who spawned them, I wrote in party chat that it wasn't me, but clearly that was ignored or simply not believed.

If you want to continue to insist that it was me and I didn't own up to it, go ahead. There are plenty of people I have played with and know well (including your guild leader) who know that it simply isn't my style. One, I would not do it on purpose and, two, if I did it by mistake I would say I did and apologize. Ask anyone who knows me or my husband.

Just thought I would set the record straight. But hey, if it makes you feel good to have a scapegoat named Battledrums, go right ahead, there are plenty of other people for me to play with.

Cheers.

It wasn't you bro.

[Necro_Jill]

I'll vouch for her. NEVER, had I ever encountered a problem with Ced. In fact quiet the contrary she's a dream to have in a group. My only complaint about her and her hubby would be a problem with their birth.... friggin canadians. To think she would lie or sabotage a run is just ignorant, hell put me on your list of do not party with too if you don't believe me.

[RobbinB]

Good for you for setting the record straight. But if it were me in there, I'd be like cool, now I don't have to stand around here for an extra 10 minutes listening to endless discussion about how to proceed. Seriously, with no penalty box this part of the quest is a joke. There's way too much whining going on about spawning stuff too early and oh-my-gosh someone might actually die. Don't think I've been in a group that failed this part since they changed it. If a group can't deal with some unexpected company, well maybe it's for the best.

By-the-by, any groups actually running part 2 without previewing the middle? just running through the centre and taking it as it comes? sounds like fun, send me an invite

[manatarms]

oh ceddy cedd, bay i still love ya even if you did activate those little critters....hahahaha...kidding. leave this woman alone, she is ten times the player than most i know and she is sort of cute.....well....for a canadian....lol...god i needto get back into game....ive been off a month.....what a richard i am...

[Aerilyn]

Hey Ced,

If they give you a hard time over there in Sarlona, come on over to the best of the best and give the Argo server a run We never look at the names and just give them a yank to make things interesting We run every quest on elite and never ever have someone die Everyone has +5 Vorpals, +5 Mithral FP, Superior Potency VIII 1 Handers, W/P rapiers, and +3 Tomes to spare, LOL.

If someone gets that worked up over someone making a mistake maybe they should just take a break from the game for a bit & in all seriousness if you want to take a break and come over for a visit give me a shout.

Yours Truly,

Bergeyon, AKA Aerilyn

Rumour on Agronnessen is it was you....

...dont shoot the messenger.

[Aerilyn]

I just love to cause problems for PUG Groups I like to spawn all the MOBS at once, red names included It makes for a lot of swearing and name calling. I deny having anything to do with the said problems and blame everything on the Paladin, or Rogue We all know those guys can not be expected to be honest with the group

See Ya in Stormreach,

So Ced, I have a question... did you think to point out the age old adage.... "Who ever smelt it delt it" or did the Canadian in your blood blind your quick wit and forgot the question.

[xealot7]

Not to mention Argo gives out free Bloodstone's just for joining. =P

[Cedrica-the-Bard]

LOL, I definitely thought it after the fact. Always after the fact, me...

[Impaqt]

I was wondering what "Dont battledrum the mobs yet" meant......

[Necro_Jill]

wait ced this could be a good thing... I remember someone who was famous for his noteriety....Ironbattledrums...... hmmm I kinda like it... If you sell this right it could be your way to DDO fame... next step is a battle to the death with another famough Sarlonan.... I could help for a split of his tasty hams.... not that I'm giving hints as to whome *cough* Kargonamen I could be speaking of.

Bottem line Ced don't fret it you'll always have ppl to play with, I mean look at me.

[Nuckin]

sorry ced I know this is kinda of late and i would have posted earlier if i had saw this post, only found out cuz someone in game told me.

I know i wasn't there in that run but there is no way in hell Ced aggroed the middle of the second part, for one she knows that quest better then half the people on our server, and shes one of the most skilled people i have ever played with in this game. And like she said if she had been the one to aggro the center then she would have calmly told u guys and appologized because thats just the kind of person she is. And the fact that u didnt believe her when she told you it wasn't her is beyond me and just shows your guys lack of integrity and inability to take responsibility for your own actions, and instead have to find a scapegoat to take the fall.

I don't know what guild was involved in the raid but ive grouped with every guild in the game at one point in time and can honestly say that if u still dont believe her after this then go ahead and add the toons in my sig to ur do not play with list. Seeing as im her guild leader and am isanely lucky enough to have her as a friend ill will put my entire nooby skills and all of my integrity behind this woman and back her 100% anyday, because honestly her and her husband are hands down 2 of the most amazing people and players i have ever met in my life, and she in no way deserves any of the ridicule or blame that was put on her. And truthfully if u do add us to ur do not play list then that is perfectly fine with me there is no reason to group with people who get so upset over something so stupid and little as well as people that cannot take blame for their own actions, and besides we could prolly 6 man it quicker then u guys were 12 mannin it

I was on this run. Someone aggro'd the middle before the group was ready. We finished it, no big deal. Although a couple people were miffed for a short time, I think most of us thought it was funny and actually enjoyed a different challenge to an otherwise setpiece battle. I think these runs would be more fun if the bosses spawned on their own. Actually provided more of a challenge. Brshelton was there too,see his post above. We completed part 4 and ended, good group.

And I can confirm, that after battledrums logged out of raid NO ONE blamed another toon. There were jokes, but no animosity whatsoever. All the people I knew in the group have pulled numerous boners throughout their ddo career (I sure have). So I hope that helps, glad we had good players on the run, thx battle.

Good to know. Thanks.

I dont know if you remember me or not, its been awhile but I always thought that you were a stand up player and I would find it very hard to believe you intentionally or seruptiously tried to wipe a party.

P.s. I Was Probably Afk On Autorun....lol

[Necro_Jill]

I will confirm that Manat is usually afk (somtimes for hours) and indeed on autorun. He also has a button for auto ask for haste and auto beg for heal. The guy truly is a macro genius.
