Guild Wars gold news
Mirror of Reason [SNOW]
SNOW was founded in March of 2006 by Nymph of Meliai and Sir Luther Valdamor. The two founders liked children's stories, particularly Hans Christian Anderson tales, so they took inspiration from "The Snow Queen." In the story, there is a frozen lake called "The Mirror of Reason" from which the guild gets its name. Mirror of Reason bases its guild lore on the traditional story, and is even listed in the Wikipedia article about Hans Christian Anderson's "Snow Queen."
As a guild, SNOW has completed most quests and almost all of the PvE missions. They enjoy farming together, though some members prefer to hoard their cash while others spend freely. The guild has belonged to several successful alliances and has owned towns. Mirror of Reason now leads its own alliance with a strict code of behavior and respect toward others.
SNOW is proud of its PvE origins and still enjoys cooperative play on a regular basis, but they now find themselves increasingly interested in PvP play. Almost all members enjoy Alliance Battles and consider themselves experts in that arena. Some have even gone on to show talent for Heroes' Ascent. Although the guild isn't interested in "keeping up with the Joneses," they've recently tackled GvG after an eight month hiatus. During periods with a frozen ladder, they try to allow newer members as much GvG practice as possible.
Mirror of Reason's philosophy is not to take the game so seriously that it stops being fun, and they remind themselves of this on a regular basis. Guild Wars is a place SNOW aspires to constantly enjoy. However, members can sometimes forget this greater goal when focused too intensely on the moment. When overcoming a challenge becomes work rather than fun, it's time to step back and remember what's important.
SNOW aims to become well known for its active participants, fun-loving nature, and helpful members. They think of themselves as a good-cheer mafia: once you're in, you never really leave.
New recruits must seek to be treated with respect, enjoy a good laugh, and be interested in trying out the variety of activities the game has to offer. SNOW tries to be a versatile guild that helps players learn new skills. When considering an applicant for the guild, they try to keep a balance of PvP and PvE-oriented players. Currently, they're hoping to find more "not-too-serious" players with GvG and HA experience who are willing to pass their skills on to novices. However, the guild welcomes anyone to apply regardless of skill level or experience. Personality and activity are the two most important factors for SNOW.
Mirror of Reason often hovers at a full roster of 100, with most members active daily. Some members only have time to play on a weekly basis, but that¡¯s okay. However, inactive players tend to be removed from the guild. Although SNOW dislikes taking anyone off their roster, there are too many active people seeking membership to allow any slots to lie dormant.
