Ok, we’ll be digging into EVE shortly, but first, let’s cover this week’s news…

This is more of Frogpants in general news, but the dates for Nerdtacular have been announced- the evening of Thursday, July 30th for the reception, and Friday, July 31 and Saturday, August 1st for the official event. We are at the fabulous Snowbird Resort again- and the discount rate is nerd15. And if you have never been to Nerdtacular, you need to go- it is a great event celebrating the people at the heart of the Frogpants community and there is usually a Huge AIE contingency.

Want to do Molten Core, but can’t stand LFR with 39 random people? Rho is planning one last trip tonight a- Raid will begin forming up at 10:45pm Eastern, no sign up is necessary – keep your eye on AIELFR and Guild chat this evening!

There are lots of great groups forming on the forums- Rep Grinding, leveling groups, raids looking for new members- wander on over to see all of the fun.

Happy Third Anniversary to AIE in SWTOR! And going on tonight at 9pm Eastern is the anniversary celebration! Max and the crew plan on a World Boss Hunt, holiday music, and there is a rumor of presents. The plan is to start out on the Imperial side and meet on the guild ship and then move to then move back and forth to the Repub side depending on interest.

SWTOR 2014 Life Day event is running from Dec 16 2014 to Jan 6, 2015, and there are many great rewards, mounts, and pets (where is Alludra when you need her). Snow-Covered Parcels are the main currency used in this event. You get them randomly by throwing the Life Day Snowball Bomb at other players with a 15% chance to receive parcels.
